Gill discusses sugar addiction and why sober people want to eat all the sugar.  She explains several studies done in rats, mice and humans that illustrate how sugar is addictive in the same way drugs and alcohol are.  In fact, mice actually prefer sugar to cocaine when given access to both!  You will learn how our brain communicates via dopamine to reinforce and reward behavior, and what happens to the dopamine receptors of people who develop sugar addiction.
