🎧 Watch FULL conversation: youtu.be/z8hQgNlW7Lk Dave Feldman and Dr. Eric Westman explore the psychological and physiological realities of food addiction. Dr. Westman, who runs Duke's Keto Medicine Clinic, draws parallels between sugar addiction and alcoholism, describing withdrawal symptoms, social pressures, and the challenge of maintaining dietary changes during holidays. The conversation examines whether food addiction deserves the same medical recognition as substance abuse, with Dr. Westman sharing striking examples from his clinical practice — including patients who continued smoking through tracheostomies after tobacco-related cancer surgery. They discuss the "carb creep" phenomenon, the role of support groups in dietary adherence, and Dr. Westman's practical approach of using simple food lists rather than complex nutritional education to help patients succeed. #FoodAddiction #SugarAddiction #KetoMedicine #DietAdherence #EricWestman #Duke #CarbCreep #HolidayEating #S...
