177. "Now I can find comfort without sugar": Susannah

Susannah grew up with a typical North American diet. Sugar was part of that diet, and sweets were a very big part of her family's everyday life.Susannah's mother would serve ice cream every night after dinner, and every weekend she would bake something like a cake, cookies, or a pie.Sugar is a part of daily life, she says, and nobody thought about it.Many years later, when her mother was in a care home with Alzheimer's, Susannah discovered that Alzheimer's is sometimes misdiagnosed Lyme disease. When she consulted for achy joints and brain fog, Susannah found out that she had Lyme disease.So her doctor recommended she stop eating all grains, all gluten, and all sugar to reduce inflammation in her body. Which meant cutting out her favourite comfort foods.And what Susannah had to learn next was how to find comfort from other sources. Now Susannah uses hypnotherapy and self-hypnosis to help others reduce anxiety without needing sugar.Find Susannah here.To get personalized guidance from me, plus support and accountability in a small group, so that you can  get rid of cravings, slim down, and finally feel in control around food... join the 90-day program, Freedom from Cravings Formula TODAY.To rate and review this podcast: scroll down in your podcast player on your phone and click on the stars.
