Changing your way of life to beat addictions

By Mark Laursen


There are many folk who have addictions and excess poundage due to it. While I must really suggest a total Life Style Change approach to weight management, in this article I'm going to address the food obsession some of it, and potential care.

Any consumable or non-consumable product or activity could be classified as an addiction when it is continual, emotionally tied to a situation, and Can Not Be STOPPED simply or you would have just done so. Smoking is an addiction, eating chocolate is a dependence. So is soda pop, alcohol, many types of drug use, sweets and candy, potato chips, including excess eating in general! The treatments I offer for stopping the repeating of these habits do vary for the product slightly but also can alter for the individual, because we're all different in our constitutions.

Let's take soda pop addiction and excess weight. Now you have got to know if you don't already, that the extra sugar in soda pop is damaging, if not deadly. It goes like this: When the body senses a blood sugar level going higher over a certain quantity, the body causes an endocrine cellular command to convert the sugar to fat, which it does anywhere in the body including inside your arteries. So aside from arteriosclerosis, accumulation of fat in the viscera (bigger omentum) and subcutaneous layer begins to happen. Translation: you're overweight, you are fat, and you're beginning vascular illness.

With soda pop, caffeine is also a horrible player for your condition. Caffeine is a drug in the body, mostly acting for worse to my mind. Caffeine stimulates the body, we feel awake and more alert short term, but we pay a price for that later when it wears off and we feel psychologically low or addictively needy. The lows of emotion often cause folk to change their way of life to sleep, eat, or disrupt their emotional and mental acumen. It is much better to be naturally steady, at least within the inhibitions of standard human emotional range.

If you take diet soda pop, you've fixed the sugar issue but you may not have fixed the caffeine issue. Diet soda pop still has the addictive quality to its relationship with a person. Diet soda pop contains AGE's, advanced glycolsylation end-products. These are considered by most doctors to be cancer causing types of compounds in the body.

What are the payoffs for drinking soda pop? First it offers a psychological time-out from whatever we do that we don't really wish to be doing. The sweetness or sugar of soda pop provides the core drive with the sensation of I'm alright. Each sip, each bottle or can, can be connected to that extremely basic, self-assuring human need. Even stimulating your lips by drinking from a bottle could cause subconscious happiness from stress. You may want to consider supplying yourself immediately, emotionally with that belief-emotional instinct by instead joining in non-addictive experiences or contemplative-meditative treatments.

2nd, if caffeine is an element of your addictive process, realize why you consider it wise for the higher. Are you on a roller coaster food/libation stimulation approach to life, also using coffee or other drugs? Stopping the cycle will cause caffeine headaches for many folks lasting a day up to 2 weeks. If you're emotionally low, depressed or bored, simply realising you are upping your energy thru chemicals may inspire you to do so naturally without food/beverage chemicals. If you are bored or have hidden depression, that needs a glance at your choices, principles, job, relationships and lifestyle.

Thirdly, there is the carbonation effect of drinking cold soda pop. This was my largest reason for drinking soda back in the day when I drank Doctor. Peppers. It was that primitive, esophageal burn that one gets when drinking soda pop that appealed to me most. I felt relieved and energy dispelled when I drank soda pop. It was like a lion's roar! The esophagus is a primitive muscle organ. That burning carbonation feeling was really stimulating to me and shifted my emotional energies around in an awakening, exciting demeanour.

Every food or product can be tied in to the psychological, emotional, way of life core of someone's inner and outer environment. Some of the processes I identified with soda pop may apply to you and other products or habits. There are categorical chemical correlations too,eg with alcohol and the nicotine of tobacco. Food obsession treatments might also have combined chemical emotional equivalents.

Fourth, there's the way of life habit. Of holding a cold bottle or can in your hand and sitting or walking around with it while you take time to relax and enjoy. The hands are sensual, and holding a cold object in the hand excites the brain immensely and distracts one from whatever unpleasant or uninteresting situation may be gaining your attention before. Glaringly, the requirement for relaxation and delight could be of supreme seriousness to your way of life decisions and thinking. Address this with time, considering what your life is presently about and change things a bit at a time if this is the case. There are other non-edible delights in life , and you might need to find out, remember or imagine and experiment with life.

Fifth, some food addictions are thanks to the food essentially containing nutrient elements that are insufficient in your body. I think the body is actually capable of making food drives due to requirements of the body that it somehow knows are in particular foods. This doesn't relate to all food addictions, but distinctly applies to some in my view.

Care for soda pop specifically is this: If you are a carbonation junky, then making the switch to a fizzy water such as Perrier will satisfy that esophageal burn. After a few cases of gaseous water go by, you are going to need less and less carbonated water as you deal with your lifestyle and emotional needs. You may even start by swapping Perrier, as an example, and soda pop. Less soda pop is better than more would you not agree?

Begin to take a high quality multi-vitamin, a magnesium/calcium product, and an omega 3 oil and re-stock your body by taking trace minerals for 1-3 months. These core products will supply all of the scientifically required nutrients for your body's health and therefore satisfy some hunger obsessions while supplying required healing nutrient elements for your body cells. I also suggest for sugar longings as well as diabetes sufferers, to beef up their body with chromium and vanadium for 3 months. These trace minerals are obligatory for correct sugar metabolism. Their failing might be a factor in your sugar or soda pop longings.

For sugar neediness, I recommend going through the sugar withdrawal slightly slowly by making regular complex carbohydrate and protein eating throughout the day. Don't go a very long time without having a natural vegetable break or low glycemic worth little meal. Do not eat sweet foods or highly sweet sorts of fruit. You want to stabilise your blood sugar levels and also stabilise the endocrine modulators to that sugar and eating. When they stabilize, your sugar drives will diminish. It takes 2 to 3 days for intake of sugar modifications to reduce and stabilize. If you must eat something liquid and sugary, think about employing stevia to chop your sugar proportions as your body adjusts.

In the way of living wants category, there are numerous activities that may be substituted for needing to take five. Going for a walk is an example of the very best. Watching television is a real instance of the worst. Find an enjoyable and stimulating lifestyle activity which will healthily substitute for sugar needs.

Caffeine needs also need ending the vicious cycle either continuously or abruptly. Curtly generally means caffeine withdrawal and headaches or hard stools. Magnesium orally will fix the slower bowel effects of going off caffeine. Staying hydrated will help reduce the caffeine withdrawal. You might need headache pain alleviation for the near term.

Many addictive foods are foods your body doesn't digest well and actually makes antibodies too in many cases. Testing the body with a blood food sensitivity test may show which foods are making you sick. Antagonistic foods create a love/desire/hate emotional need in numerous folks. Identifying the wrong food, or if your addictive food is actually an irritant, will help you to plan an anti inflammatory escape from this lifestyle. Anti-histamine supplements can be employed while you are getting off these kinds of addictive foods in these cases.

Homeopathic remedies may relieve the need for candy or sugar. See a homeopathic provider who will find the best cure for your total health picture. Some of the homeopathic remedies for sugar are: calcerea carbonica 30C or 200C, and kali-c 30C, or 200C. Some sweets cures are: lycopodium, chininum, and argentum nitricum. Still, given how homeopathic remedies are determined, a homeopathic provider may suggest some others especially for you as an alternative.

Other treatments for addictions can include hypnosis and other breakthrough patterning treatments for the obsession emotional mental food connection.

For highly resistant food obsessions, I consider using the following: For someone that is an adult and has no esophageal or airway issues, taking ipecac after gorging yourself on the addictive food, will cause a. Lasting nausea and barfing association with that specific food. Ipecac causes vomiting, so there have to be precautions, and nobody likes to barf or feel nausea, but the food association with the queasiness reply may obliterate the addiction drive for that food.
