    Unpacking Food Addiction: Insights and Solutions with Dr. Jen Unwin

    Discover the intricate world of food addiction with clinical psychologist Dr. Jen Unwin, who specialises in this compelling field. Dr. Unwin shares her personal journey and sheds light on the alarming prevalence of food addiction among individuals struggling with type 2 diabetes and obesity. Together, we tackle the societal challenges posed by ultra-processed foods, advocating for food addiction to be recognised as a legitimate condition deserving of proper treatment and support, much like the historical acknowledgment of nicotine addiction. As ultra-processed foods continue to dominate our diets, we recognise their potential to hijack the brain, much like addictive substances such as alcohol and nicotine. This episode explores the struggle individuals face, even those well-versed in health, in making healthier choices despite knowing the harm. We discuss the ongoing efforts to get food addiction recognised by major diagnostic systems and the importance of the CRAVED criteria in diagnosing this condition. We also emphasise distinguishing between individuals who need to abstain from specific foods and those who can moderate their consumption. Strategies for managing food addiction are at the forefront of our discussion, with a focus on identifying foods with drug-like effects and building supportive habits. We highlight the impact of the Liberate course, an eight-week online program designed to help participants achieve and maintain abstinence, and share insights into our residential treatment retreats in the UK. Our conversation is a call to action, encouraging reflection, learning, and continuous progress on personal health journeys. Join us in this episode as we explore the science, stories, and strategies that empower individuals to take control of their health.

    Low Carb Versus Keto

    Join us on the Low Carb Keto Health Podcast as we embark on an insightful journey to unravel the differences between low-carb and ketogenic diets. Accredited dietitian Nicole Moore guides us through the essential distinctions, highlighting how a low-carb diet involves around 50 grams of carbohydrates per day, significantly lower than the standard Australian diet, which can exceed 200 grams daily. In contrast, a ketogenic diet restricts carbs to 20 grams or less per day with higher fat consumption. Nicole shares valuable insights on how these dietary approaches can impact inflammation, insulin resistance, and chronic diseases such as epilepsy, cancer, Alzheimer's, and Parkinson's. She emphasizes that the choice between these diets should be based on individual health conditions and metabolic wellness, with keto often being more suitable for severe health issues and low-carb beneficial for overall health improvement. Listen in as we explore the health benefits and challenges of maintaining a low-carb or ketogenic lifestyle. Discover the significant advantages of ketosis, including reduced hunger, decreased inflammation, and enhanced brain function, which can be particularly beneficial for conditions like Alzheimer's and epilepsy. We also address the practical challenges of sticking to a ketogenic diet long-term, especially regarding food restrictions. To help you sustain these diets while maintaining nutritional balance, we provide practical tips for incorporating a variety of non-starchy vegetables, nuts, seeds, and low-carb products to ensure adequate fibre, vitamins, and antioxidants. Tune in to learn how to achieve a balanced, healthful approach to low-carb and keto living. Chapter Summaries (00:05) Low Carb vs Keto Diet Difference Low-carb and ketogenic diets have different carb and fat restrictions, impacting inflammation and chronic diseases. (11:07) Benefits of Low-Carb Versus Keto Diets Nature's ketogenic benefits include reduced hunger, inflammation, and improved brain function, but long-term maintenance can be challenging.
