As a newish subscriber, I am reading this for the first time.. I have recently become aware that my body needs sugar, more than I give it. for example, if I eat more carbs in my meals during the day, I have no need for a nightcap .“ I think I was kind of craving my post work cocktail because I needed the sugar! Knowledge is power; thank you so much♥️

Ok I LOVE the sugar parts of this, but the addiction parts were distracting, like this part: “restriction and abstinence, because that’s the best way we know right now to help people stabilize and live a balanced life.” Uh, what about harm reduction? What about giving people clean needles and such? I’m not a substance abuse professional, but I don’t think total abstinence is realistic for everyone. Just like there isn’t a one-size-fits-all way to eat.
