now i know this might be hard to believe but  certain people once they start carbs they cannot  

stop so recently i had a person who reached  out and wanted some help because they were  

slightly addicted to carbs they wanted to start  keto but they had this addiction how do they  

go about it so i decided to create a video  for this person all right we’ve been trained  

since birth to consume sugar okay it’s in baby  food it’s in all of our foods and uh you know go  

trick-or-treating and you get all this candy and  every holiday and cookies etc etc and what happens  

inside our body every time we do this is we start  to develop um an addiction um and that involves  

two neurotransmitters one is dopamine which is  involved with pleasure sensation and then we have  

serotonin which is involved with the happiness  sensation now i used to have an addiction i mean a  

periodic craving for ben and jerry’s ice  cream i got caught up in this uh eating a pint  

every night before i went to bed type situation  over i would say a year i would be obsessed about  

it i would be thinking about it all day long  and eventually if i didn’t consume it i had this  

pressure or stress build up that may be physically  uncomfortable but as soon as i started consuming  

this delicious ice cream i felt satisfied happy i  felt like i was surviving i could finally breathe  

again for about about a minute now of course this  was artificially making me satisfied happy and  

feeling like i was surviving when i actually  was feeling very miserable the rest of the day  

and not really surviving health-wise so what you  have to realize is that every time you give in to  

this craving you’re going to get more cravings  over time it’s going to happen it’s going to  

become stronger and stronger over time and it’s  very interesting to me that your body can get into  

a state physically where it demands this sugar  this addiction is real and it will literally  

control you to a point where you’re completely  out of control so what can you do at this point  

number one you need to stop eating completely you  need to start fasting immediately because what’s  

gonna happen instead of eating food you’re gonna  eat no food and your body is gonna have to switch  

over there’s gonna be a little uncomfortable  transition period but it won’t be too bad or your  

body will start to switch to ketosis and then when  you start burning fat for fuel your brain actually  

starts to heal and reset because the receptors  for these neurotransmitters are so messed up they  

need to be reset the absolute best way to do it is  simply start fasting i would recommend minimally  

24 hours to 48 hours and if you can actually do  exercise light exercise walking that would be even  

better because you can burn off that sugar that  you just consumed so just get it out of the system  

get your body into ketosis and then your brain  will feel better the interesting thing about  

the brain is that if given the choice the  brain will prefer ketones over sugar any  

day it’s very therapeutic and as soon as that  happens you start to shift to be more in control  

over this addiction all right number three you  have to be very careful to avoid the triggers  

get all the junk food out of the house including  those chips that you have up in the cupboard that  

you’ve been hiding make it difficult for you to  get this junk food especially late at night when  

you’re kind of bored so many people at night  they’re not even hungry they’re just going  

through the cupboards looking for something they  don’t even know what they’re looking for but maybe  

something salty and crunchy maybe something sweet  but you need to get the junk out of your house  

very important when you’re fasting don’t  read cookbooks okay especially for desserts  

you want to avoid any type of trigger  including pictures of recipes or desserts  

because dopamine is all about anticipating  pleasure as soon as you eat this food  

you don’t continue to increase dopamine dopamine  is kind of a precursor to actual eating it so  

as soon as you look at a picture or smell food  you instantly start increasing the dopamine and  

that is going to create a controlling factor over  your body let’s say for example you’re driving  

your bike down your neighborhood and it’s dinner  time and you can smell spaghetti cooking in the  

from someone’s house that would be bad don’t  do that so smells are very powerful kentucky  

fried chicken they pump out all these different  smells so they can lure you into that facility  

avoid any and all environments that can tempt you  and lastly b vitamins are are crucial vitamin b1  

will completely handle this right here okay so use  that through nutritional yeast to help curb your  

addictions i’m sorry your cravings hey before  you go real quick i have a course entitled how
