Ultra-processed foods are designed to keep you hooked
Some foods aren’t made to nourish you — they’re designed to hook you. In this episode, we’re pulling back the curtain on the truth about ultra-processed foods and why your struggles with overeating are not your fault.
From chips you can’t stop eating to ice cream that lights up your brain’s reward center, these foods are chemically engineered in labs to override your body’s natural “I’m full” signal. We’ll talk about the bliss point — the exact mix of sugar, fat, and salt that billion-dollar food companies pay scientists to perfect — and how this industry is keeping women stuck in cycles of craving, guilt, and exhaustion.
Here’s what you’ll learn in today’s episode:
- Why ultra-processed foods confuse your body and disrupt your hormones
- How the food industry rigs the game against your willpower
- Why your cravings aren’t weakness — they’re wisdom
- Simple steps to start breaking free with grace, not restriction
Friend, you are not broken for craving chips, chocolate, or fast food. Your biology has been hijacked, but you can start shifting the balance back. I’ll share how to add before you subtract, crowd out processed foods with colorful, nutrient-rich meals, and start building a relationship with food that leaves you energized, not empty.
