For women in early sobriety, it is really common to feel that food (especially sugar) is replacing alcohol at times as a coping mechanism. In this incredible interview, Dr. Jenn gives us an insight in to why this may be. She also discusses the diet cycle and the importance of addressing emotional hunger. She explains the role of dopamine in food cravings and the difference between food addiction and substance addiction.
Dr. Jenn emphasizes the need for adequate nutrition and balanced meals, including carbohydrates, in early sobriety. She suggests including foods that bring pleasure and not restricting or avoiding them.
