On this episode of The Mental Society, I am joined by Dr. Joan Ifland.

We talk about food addiction, what it is, why it happens, and what you can do to make changes that will help you feel better.

Dr. Ifland has been creating breakthroughs in recovery from food addiction since 1999 and is the lead author of the first scholarly description of processed food addiction and the definition of addictive foods.

She has founded online communities providing support and education for those experiencing food addiction and who are ready to make changes.
