Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Are You a Food or Drink Junkie?
Q: What is the role of dopamine in food addiction?
Dopamine is the major reward and motivation neurotransmitter which, when excessively stimulated by sugar and ultra-processed food, leads to downregulation of dopamine receptors, resulting in a need for greater amounts to achieve the same effect, similar to other addictions.
Are You a Food or Drink Junkie?
Q: How do we break free from food addiction?
To escape food addiction, the key steps are understanding the addiction's nature, seeking support, possibly using group therapy, and committing to a long-term approach rather than trying to reduce intake gradually.
Are You a Food or Drink Junkie?
Q: What are the six telltale signs that your love of sugar is actually moving you more into a dependent addictive state?
The six telltale signs include cravings and compulsions, reaching for more, neglecting activities, volume control issues, withdrawal symptoms, and continued use despite knowing it's doing you damage.
Building Healthy Children’s Brains & Healthy Mothers in Pregnancy
Q: How common is depression in pregnancy, and is it on the increase?
Globally, about 21% of women experience depression during pregnancy, with increases noted during COVID-19.
Building Healthy Children’s Brains & Healthy Mothers in Pregnancy
Q: What got you started in the area of mental health and nutrition?
I discovered that nutrition plays a significant role in psychological difficulties, especially observing families with psychiatric disorders and their responses to nutritional interventions.
