Today we welcome Michael Collins, an expert on sugar addiction, to Health Coach Radio. Michael is the founder of SugarAddiction.com and the I Quit Sugar summit. He is also a board member and past chairman of a non-profit group that studies sugar and food addiction. Basically, if you are wondering if there is validity to claims that sugar is a psychoactive drug, Michael is a go-to guy for resources on this subject. He has dedicated his professional life to bringing awareness of sugar addiction to people who have health, wellness, or eating issues. He has also authored the Amazon best-selling book The Last Resort Sugar Detox Guide. During this episode we discuss how many of us have been trained to use sugar to manage emotional struggles, how sugar affects the brain, coaching clients through recovering from sugar addiction and so much more. If you are a coach who works with clients on removing sugar from the diet you will get a lot out of this episode.
