Mike grew up eating plenty of sugar. As a competitive boxer and wrestler, he would sometimes lose weight to make his target, then celebrate with a pie. It wasn't until much later, when he started having ongoing health and back problems, that he began looking more closely at his diet.
Mike says that when he cut sugar, his inflammation decreased and his aches and pains started to go away.
He also shares why he decided to cut sugar out of his diet and how that change affected the way he feels, particularly when it comes to pain and inflammation.
Mike also shares how his interest in health and pain management led him to become involved in developing a non-invasive technology designed to help relieve pain.

When you start cutting back on sugar, it’s easy to put all carbs or sugars into one basket.
But my guest Dr. John Lewis, a nutrition scientist, explains why that basket is too big.
John looks at sugars by where they come from and how they are built.
A simple sugar is a single molecule. A disaccharide has two molecules, like sucrose (white sugar). Polysaccharides, the kind he has spent years researching in aloe and rice bran, are long chains of sugar units linked together.
And those different types of carbs (or sugars) affect the body in completely different ways.
Dr. Lewis also also explains what the difference is between brown and white rice.
John has spent his career in research, with more than 30 clinical trials and over 180 published papers behind him, and he lives by what he studies. He says real food comes first and any supplement (including his own creation) comes second.

Suzanne had already figured out that sugar was her problem.
She had spent 25 years on every diet out there, but she realized that sugar was tripping her up, including for intermittent fasting.
So in 2025, Suzanne booked a call with me about getting support, but at the time, she wasn’t ready to sign up for my Freedom from Cravings Formula program.
Back then, Suzanne thought she could do it on her own, and she didn’t want to spend the money on a program. For the next year she kept telling herself she knew what to do and just had to put it into action. She kept trying and failing and starting over, and she got down on herself for it.
In June 2026, she decided she wasn’t getting anywhere, and she booked another call with me, joined the program, and never looked back.
In this conversation, Suzanne shares what changed once she asked for help.
After trying and failing to cut sugar on her own, Suzanne shares the relief she felt to finally reach her goals with my help, the value of accountability, learning from other women’s struggles in a group, and how following the program built her confidence to say no to sugar and mean it.

In this episode, I’m joined by Paige, who explains what "nervous system regulation" means with relation to recovery from sugar addiction.
Paige’s message is that when we reach for food under stress, the real issue is a nervous system that has gone into emergency mode. A calm brain doesn’t crave, so her approach starts with calming the body and using the small pause between a thought and an action.
Paige also talks about why the third week after reducing or cutting sugar is usually the hardest, and what happens to your taste buds and cravings if you keep going.
She believes real change comes from slowly retraining the brain, one small step at a time, and that every time you get through a craving, the next one comes back a little weaker.
Paige goes into more detail in her new book: Real Food Recovery: If Food isn’t the Answer, What’s the Question?
Paige has only one rule when it comes to recovery. Listen to this episode to hear what it is.

It's episode 300 of the Life After Sugar podcast! Woo hoo!
To celebrate, I go back to some of the first things I ever talked about on this podcast, back in 2021, and to why the show exists in the first place.
Sometimes we forget the basics, so I think that the 300th episode is a good place to remember them.
In this episode, you'll hear about:
- some different names for sugar, including the Cuba story that made me realize the white crystals we call sugar originally come from a plant
- why "pure" sugar is mostly marketing, given the dozen or more industrial steps between the sugarcane or sugar beet and the white crystals
- the chemistry of sugar, in simple terms: most sugars are built from glucose and fructose
- how maple syrup and honey compare with table sugar on a molecular level
- the fruit question: do I eat fruit, and where I get my vitamins if I don't eat much of it
- what "life after sugar" and freedom from cravings means in real life, which is why this podcast exists

Susan Peirce Thompson, PhD, is a former food addict and the founder of Bright Line Eating. She and I recorded Episode 125 back in June 2023.
Susan is back on the podcast to talk about her new book, Maintain, the fifth book in her series about food addiction and weight loss.
In this episode, we talk about what happens after you lose the weight and why maintaining it can be harder than people expect.
A big part of that is learning what to do when you’re no longer using food, especially foods that contain refined sugar and flour, to deal with boredom, stress or difficult emotions.
Susan explains the three identity shifts she believes are important for maintaining weight loss: becoming devoted, resourced and liberated.
We also talk about dopamine and why some of us are more likely to reach for food when we’re stressed or tired, and Susan shares her 90-second practice for feeling an emotion instead of trying to make it go away.
And you'll hear about how to develop the skills to respond differently to cravings and emotions, because sugar can keep us stuck in the cycle of using food to avoid feelings, rather than learning how to deal with those feelings in a different way.

In this episode, I’m talking with John about sugar cravings, hydration, and what he calls “intracellular hydration.”
John shares his story of growing up in Columbus, Ohio, becoming a sugar addict, and eventually developing a very different perspective on health and the role of sugar and especially hydration in the body.
John surprises me with his fascinating “marbles and sponges” analogy to explain intracellular hydration.
He also explains why he believes sugar cravings are connected to dehydration.
And we talk about something I'm sure you can relate to: when it comes to sugar, moderation simply doesn’t work for everyone. John shares his own experience with sugar cravings and what changed for him when he stopped craving sugar.

Martin was a guest on the Life After Sugar podcast on Episode 110 in February 2023. He’s back to ask me some questions about sugar, to talk about his new book, and also about the concept of an "irrevocable commitment".
Martin practises intermittent fasting. But he’s continued to have something sweet after dinner, which is a habit that goes back to childhood (nothing wrong with that!).
In this episode, we talk about:
- Martin’s 66-day experiment without desserts and what he learned from it
- How his thinking about the emotional connection he has with sweets changed
- Moderating or abstaining from sugar, and why what works for one person may not work for another
- Intermittent fasting, hunger and whether sugar affects fasting
- GLP-1 medications and changing our behaviour around food
- Martin's irrevocable commitment: You heard it here first!

Heike grew up in Germany eating lots of sugar and large portions, and she was overweight by the time she was a teenager.
After moving to the United States in her early 20s, she discovered a very different food environment than the one she was expecting. She was surprised by how much fast food, fried food, burgers, French fries and starch-heavy foods there were, and how little emphasis there seemed to be on vegetables.
In this episode, we talk about:
- how some people can moderate sugar, and others have an all-or-nothing relationship with it and need to abstain
- “choosing to choose” — taking responsibility for your food choices instead of feeling powerless around sugar
- the diet culture, learning to trust yourself again, and finding an approach that works for you

Dr. Nathan Bryan has spent years researching human health and physiology... but during his medical training, he received zero dedicated training in nutrition.
In this episode, we talk about what he learned after his medical training and through his research, and how the nutritional quality of our food has degraded over time.
Dr. Nathan and I talk about how we consumers need to educate ourselves (which is easier said than done with all the confusing info out there!).
We also talk about sugar, insulin resistance, intermittent fasting, nutrient deficiencies, and whether supplements can help fill the gaps in our diet.
Dr. Nathan challenges some of the assumptions we’ve come to accept about nutrition and health, and explains what his research has taught him about what your body actually needs (hint: it's NOT sugar!).

You probably don't need another diet, another list of foods to avoid, or another reminder about what you already know you should be doing.
If you've been struggling with sugar cravings for years, the problem may not be a lack of information... or a lack of willpower.
It may be that you're trying to change a deeply ingrained pattern without the right process, support, and accountability.
In this episode, I explain why so many capable, motivated women can know exactly what they want to change and still find themselves back in the same cycle of cravings, restriction, giving in, and starting over. (I know — I've been there!)
I also explain what makes the Freedom from Cravings Formula different, and why having guidance while you actually implement the changes can make the process much more efficient and effective than trying to figure it all out on your own.
By the time you're 50, you've been dealing with sugar cravings for years. And you don't want to waste any more time and energy obsessing about food or your next sweet snack.
This episode will help you understand the missing piece and what it could look like to finally feel free from cravings.
And if you're wondering whether the Freedom from Cravings Formula could be the right fit for you, book free a call with me to talk about where you are now, where you want to be, and whether my approach can help you get there.

For Sharon, sugar was much more than a sweet treat.
Sugary foods were something she used to help her through all-nighters and cope with difficult times.
But eventually, she realized that sugar was was helping her cope with difficult relationships and family issues.
In this episode, Sharon shares her journey from eating brownie batter straight from the bowl to adopting a raw vegan lifestyle.
She talks about the difficult events that fuelled her sugar addiction, and the moment she realized she didn't want to spend the next 40 or 50 years feeling miserable.
Most importantly, Sharon explains how she came to see the connection between food, her emotions, her self-talk, and the rest of her life, and how getting off the sugar roller coaster became part of a much bigger shift in herself.

What does sugar have to do with heart disease?
According to Dr. Geoffrey Boone, preventive cardiologist, much more than most people realize.
After decades of helping people prevent heart disease, he explains how sugar contributes to inflammation, damages the lining of the arteries, and why these changes can begin years before any symptoms appear.
In this episode, we talk about why Dr. Boone believes prevention still isn't the main focus of healthcare, how modern imaging can detect heart disease long before a heart attack, and why highly processed foods have become such a problem.
We also discuss why moderation isn't always realistic for people with sugar addiction, where lifestyle changes fit alongside medication, and the practical steps you can take today to protect your heart for the long term.

You've probably tried to stop eating sugar on your own.
More than once.
And it can work for a while.
You promise yourself you'll do better, you rely on willpower, and maybe you even have a few good days or weeks.
But when life gets stressful or overwhelming, it's all too easy to slip back into old habits.
In this episode, I talk about why lasting freedom from sugar cravings isn't about having more knowledge or finding the perfect meal plan.
It's about getting the right support and accountability while you make changes that actually last.
You'll also hear an excerpt from one of the accountability calls inside my Freedom from Cravings Formula program, where Anne shares the value of having the support of others:
- reassurance that there is no perfect time
- encouragement when life gets chaotic
- accountability instead of quitting
- perspective that a setback isn't failure
Because sometimes, what makes the biggest difference isn't another strategy. It's having someone there to support you and help you stay the course.

Many of us turn to sugar or comfort food without really understanding why.
In fact, most of us haven't been taught how to name or cope with our emotions.
For Lisa, emotional eating became a way of coping with life's difficult moments when she was a child. It wasn't until much later in life that she began to uncover what she really needed to do when her emotions overwhelmed her.
In this episode, Lisa shares how childhood experiences, including the loss of her brother at the age of six, shaped her relationship with food.
We talk about emotional eating, self-compassion, people-pleasing, and why cravings are often pointing to something much deeper than hunger.
Lisa also shares practical ways to pause before reacting to a craving, recognize what you're really feeling, and begin responding with kindness rather than self-criticism.

A dramatic sugar crash during a swimming race at just 11 years old became the turning point that shaped Jodie's entire approach to health.
In this episode, Jodi shares how that early experience led her to question the role of sugar, discover the power of whole foods, and become much more aware of how food affects the body.
We also explore inflammation, the gut and skin microbiome, why what you eat shows up on your skin, and how Jodi's decision to eat differently led to her creating a line of natural plant-based skincare products.
Jodi talks about about paying attention to your body's signals, and challenging what we've been taught about food. And it can all begin with a few simple changes.

Did you know that your body already makes its own natural version of Ozempic?
In this episode, you'll hear how GLP-1 works as a natural hormone, and why drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy exist: they copy the same hormone but are designed to last much longer.
You'll hear how the GLP-1 that naturally disappears from your body in two minutes got turned into an appetite-reducing drug that lasts a full week.
You'll also hear about what happens to people's weight after they stop taking GLP-1 drugs, as well as what leptin resistance actually is, and whether cutting sugar can reverse it better than GLP-1 drugs.
Are GLP-1 drugs for you? Or does cutting sugar give the same result?
And are you ready to go deeper and ask yourself why you turn to sugar to fill an emotional need?
Only you have the answer! (But I will give you a few...)

In this episode, you'll hear from Dr. Jonar, an internal medicine physician and lifestyle medicine expert, about his own struggle with processed sugar.
Sugar was at the heart of Dr. Jonar's emotional eating, insulin resistance, and prediabetes.
He explains why so many chronic diseases are driven by lifestyle, why nutrition receives so little attention in medical training, and how processed sugar affects the brain, the gut microbiome, and long-term health.
We also discuss sugar addiction, diabetes, GLP-1 medications, the role of the microbiome, and why changing your habits is more often the key to lasting health than taking medications.
Dr. Jonar's story offers you practical insights and an encouraging reminder that deep and lasting change is possible, even after a diagnosis of prediabetes.

In this episode, Meg shares how she was diagnosed with anorexia at just 13 years old, and spent the next 16 years in and out of treatment before finally reaching full recovery in her late twenties.
You'll hear Meg talk candidly about what it was like to be a dangerously underweight teenager caught in a cycle of perfectionism and control.
Meg describes what treatment actually looked like for her, and the gap she found between learning coping tools in a clinical setting and applying them in real life.
You'll also hear how her eating disorder evolved into emotional eating in her early twenties, with cycles of bingeing and restricting, and the moment on her living room couch that finally pushed her to seek a different kind of recovery.
If you've ever turned to food to cope with anxiety, boredom, sadness, or even excitement, you'll relate to so much of what Meg shares.
Meg finally found freedom through her concept of the "seven bodies", and she explains how emotional eating often comes from trying to fill the wrong kind of empty.
We also talk about intuitive eating, and how it's possible to eat "whatever you want, whenever you want" including choosing not to eat sugar, flour, or other foods that don't make your body feel good.

What if the thing standing between you and your "life after sugar" isn't sugar at all?
What if it's the way you think?
In this episode, you'll learn about a trap so many women fall into: a habit of overcomplicating things until failure feels inevitable.
You know the pattern.
You set an impossible rule, break it by lunchtime, throw in the towel, and reach for the sugar because... well, you already "messed up."
You'll also find out why a sugar-free life may be perceived as being complicated, when the truth is the opposite.
It's the processed food industry that's selling you convenience, but you're paying for it later in energy crashes, brain fog, and blood sugar spikes that leave you hungry minutes after eating.
So in this episode you'll get some time-saving strategies to simplify food prep.
You'll also hear a real clip from a coaching call with one of my Freedom from Cravings Formula clients about how she's learning to make her life much simpler... and how you can too.

Cassandra grew up on a classic American diet, sugar included.
It wasn't until her 20s that she started noticing the connection between what she was eating and how she was feeling. As someone with ADHD, the moment she cut out sugar and experienced real mental clarity for the first time, there was no going back.
In this episode, Cassandra explains what mindful eating is: It means bringing awareness to what you eat, how you eat it, and how it makes you feel.
We talk about why North American food culture works against us, how to set yourself up for healthier choices without overhauling your entire life, and why developing mindful eating habits is more powerful than any food or diet rule.
Today Cassandra is a mindful eating coach and author of The Mindful Table.

What's the connection between gut health and sugar cravings?
In this episode, ZuZu, a holistic healthcare practitioner, explains how poor gut health, candida, and SIBO can actually drive your cravings, and why healing the gut can make those cravings disappear almost entirely.
She also explains why your body only needs one teaspoon of sugar in the bloodstream at any given time, why grains and starches count as sugar, and how excess sugar damages the nervous system and why this affects everything from digestion to neurotransmitter production.
So if you've been struggling with bloating, constipation, or diarrhea that nothing seems to fix, Zuzu's explanation of SIBO and methane overgrowth might finally give you some answers.
Her biggest piece of advice? Learn about your body. Because when you understand what's happening inside, you stop being afraid of it, and you become your own best health advocate.

If you've ever asked yourself the question: Why aren't I sugar free yet? with frustration, this episode is for you.
In my experience, one of the most common — and most damaging — expectations around going sugar-free is that it should happen instantly, completely, and permanently.
Spoiler: it doesn't always work that way, and it doesn't have to.
In fact, I challenge the idea that going sugar-free should be instant and effortless — like someone waving a magic wand. (Me, for example!)
Actually, being sugar-free isn't just about how much sugar you eat, it's about how you feel about sugar.
And because we're all different, there's no single timeline or threshold that defines what sugar-free looks like. For some people, freedom comes from gradually reducing sugar. For others, it means cutting it out completely. And everything in between is valid.
As an example, in this episode I hand over the mic to Maria, a participant in the Freedom From Cravings Formula program, who expresses beautifully how she feels about sugar now.

In this episode, Helen shares how she learned from an early age that food is medicine and that balance is everything. As an Ayurveda practitioner and psychic, she brings a fascinating Eastern perspective to what's really driving cravings for sweets and sugar.
Helen explains the difference between Eastern and Western sugar, and why some people are more prone to sugar addiction. She also goes deeper into why healing your inner child may be at the root of healing your cravings.
Helen also explains how building a daily meditation practice and tuning into your body's intuition can reduce cravings in a way that no diet plan ever could.

In this episode, I'm talking with Dr. Kelly McCann, a medical doctor with a background in integrative medicine, and she connects the dots between mold exposure, gut health, and sugar cravings in a way I've never heard before.
And then she takes it even deeper — into the emotional and spiritual side of why we reach for sweetness in the first place.
Because as Dr. Kelly explains, sugar cravings aren't just about willpower or habit.
In fact, they can be a signal from your body that something much deeper needs attention, like a void in your life that no amount of sugar is ever going to fill.

Monica grew up in Australia with pretty health-conscious parents. But as life got busier and more stressful, she started eating more and more sugar.
And eventually, working in the health industry of all places, she was diagnosed with Hashimoto's.
In this episode, Monica breaks down what Hashimoto's actually is, why it's so often missed or misdiagnosed for years, and why sugar plays a much bigger role in this autoimmune condition than most people — and most doctors — realize.
This one is especially relevant if you're a woman in your 40s, 50s, or beyond, because as Monica explains, hormonal shifts like perimenopause and menopause are one of the most common triggers for Hashimoto's to develop or flare up.
Now Monica helps other mums do what she had to figure out herself — get to the root of what's driving their Hashimoto's so they can finally feel like themselves again.

Suann grew up in northeastern Canada eating the way most of us did: a diet full of sugary cereals and processed foods.
But when she grew older, she started listening to her body. She became vegetarian, then vegan, moved off-grid, and built a life that suits her.
And she's never felt more free.
In this conversation, we talk about what Suann calls embodiment — what it actually means to feel at home in your body, to know what it needs, and to trust it. And how that connects to the way we eat, the way we move, and the way we show up in the world.
If you've ever felt judged or like an outsider because of the way you eat, or you've struggled to feel comfortable in your own skin, this episode is for you.

In this episode, I want to talk about something that confuses a lot of people: cholesterol. What it actually is, why your body needs it, and why the LDL number on your lab report doesn't tell the whole story.
A new documentary that just came out in April 2026 called The Cholesterol Code got me thinking.
It follows Dave Feldman, an engineer who went low-carb, stabilized his blood sugar, felt great, but then saw his LDL go up, and decided to find out why.
What he discovered is turning a lot of what we thought we knew about cholesterol and heart disease upside down.
Because here's the thing — what if LDL cholesterol isn't really the villain we've been told it is? What if the real problem is chronically elevated insulin?
In this episode, I ask the questions:
- What is cholesterol? And why is it essential?
- What is the difference between LDL and HDL?
- How could sugary foods, insulin resistance, and inflammation be risk factors for heart disease?
- What can you ask your doctor if your cholesterol has changed since cutting sugar?
Science is about asking questions, and these ones may challenge 50 years of conventional wisdom about cholesterol, statins, insulin, and heart disease.

John grew up in Indiana eating Hungry Man dinners, boxes of sugary cereal, and green-frosted Ninja Turtle pies... and no-one ever told him sugar was a problem!
By his early 30s he was pushing 290 pounds, prediabetic, and on blood pressure medication.
After discovering low-carb eating and spending years experimenting with ketosis, John learned how to train his body to burn fat instead of sugar and refined carbs for fuel.
John's wake-up call at age 46 led him to build Rebel Health Alliance, which is a virtual clinic available across all 50 states where physicians, dietitians, strength coaches, and genetic counselors all work together on the client's behalf.
Today at 50, John is lean at 6'4" and 220 pounds, and is training to qualify for a marathon!
