JEN UNWIN Dr. Unwin's husband, Dr. David Unwin, has been on the show before. Check out his appearance on the show! He's also a doctor. She is a clinical psychologist who focuses on the relationship between food and our brains. Now, she helps her patients change their life by controlling their relationships to carbohydrates. Her fabulous book is available here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B08XX4ZH3F/ref=cm_sw_r_em_api_fabc_N0TGXF3VYC041NQEXKHB CARBOHYDRATE ADDICTION Dr. Unwin has always felt a crazy draw to food. She eventually began to see her food through an addiction lens. When Jen found low carb, she got the science, and on day 8 she started to feel much better. Only then did she understand -- one bite is too many and one thousand is never enough. She knew she had to abstain completely and treat it like any other addiction. So for her, there is no life into living. You should evaluate your relationship to carbs before you decide whether you want to put LIL or not. For some people, this isn't a problem, but for others, it absolutely changes your quality of life when you take control of the addiction. As addicts, we might know carbs are bad for us, but we feel like we can't help it. This is why going all in from the beginning can be very important. Food manufacturers know people have these addictions, and they play into it. If you're eating 'keto' things, it might still be feeding the addiction. For Dr. Jen Unwin, peanut butter was something for her that continued to feed the addiction. She had to cut it out completely.
