Bitten Jonsson's SUGAR Method: Understanding and Tackling Sugar Addiction

So sugar is the instrument that I suggest: everyone that think they have a problem with this: do a sugar evaluation and then we know, and from that evaluation you know if you are, if you are addicted, we can see your progression from the first addictive symptom in your life, which is usually around Five, Six Years Of Age.
Imagine being able to pinpoint when your sugar addiction started and how it has evolved over the years. In this episode of 'Unsweetened Sio', Siobhan Huggins sits down with Bitten Jonsson, a registered nurse and addiction specialist, to discuss just that. Bitten is a trailblazer in the field of sugar addiction in Sweden and brings a wealth of knowledge to the table. She introduces her SUGAR evaluation method, which is based on ICD 10 criteria for addiction to psychoactive substances.
This tool helps individuals determine if they are addicted to sugar or flour and understand the progression of their addiction over their lifetime. Did you know that the first signs of sugar addiction often appear as early as age five or six? Bitten explains how her method tracks these early symptoms and provides a comprehensive overview of one's relationship with sugar. The conversation also delves into the impact of sugar on the brain, highlighting why it's so addictive.
Siobhan and Bitten discuss the challenges of relapse and the importance of building a supportive community to manage this chronic condition. They also share practical tips for managing sugar cravings in everyday life. If you've ever wondered whether your sweet tooth is more than just a habit, this episode is a must-listen. Gain insights into how professional help and community support can make a world of difference in overcoming sugar addiction.
