kirsten1 cropped Your Questions About Carbohydrate Addicts

admin answers:

To eliminate your carbohydrate addiction, you don’t have to diet. In fact you shouldn’t diet. It’s bad for you and will ultimately cause obesity.  To get over any addiction including carbohydrate addiction, you have to cure it.  Just like an alcohol and nicotine or drug addiction you have to stop using the substance to allow your body to get back to normal.  Once you are cured you will no longer crave the substance.  Check out The carbohydrate Addicts Manual and learn how to do that and what to do once you are cured.

Donald Your Questions About Carbohydrate Addicts

Donald asks…

How do I gain control of my carb/butter addiction?

I absolutely love potatoes, pasta, white bread, etc all just dripping with butter. I’m not overweight now, but I feel like I will be in the future if I keep eating this way. Any suggestions?

kirsten1 cropped Your Questions About Carbohydrate Addicts

admin answers:

1. Remove all carbs from your kitchen. Cure your addiction and don’t ever diet again. Find some tasty proteins you really like and make sure you always have a few at hand in the refrigerator.
2. Don’t count calories.  Take comfort in the knowledge that you don’t ever need to be hungry.  True nutrition is in protein and nobody ever got fat eating protein.
3. If you stick to protein you will cure your carbohydrate addiction.  Once cured all your cravings for carbohydrates like bread and potatoes will be gone.  You can then begin to add digestible friendly carbs like greens and salads back into your food choices.  Just make sure you do it gradually.

Linda asks…

How do you handle your carb addiction>?

I am Badly Carb Addicted….
I am not doing Atkins or any other lo carb diet.
I just notice this insatiable craving for simple carbs…I cant control it…

kirsten1 cropped Your Questions About Carbohydrate Addicts

admin answers:

* Carb addiction is like any other addiction.  Using a low carb diet to cure your addiction is like an alcoholic trying to cut drinking to weekends only.  Or a smoker cutting to a packet a day.  It doesn’t work.  Why?  Your body won’t let it.  Your cravings will always win.

*Don’t keep carbohydrates in the home.

*Make sure you have lots of proteins on hand at all times.

*Don’t count calories

*Remember: Fat curbs your hunger.  The fat you eat is not the fat that sticks to your body.  Body fat comes from the carbohydrates you have been unable to use for energy.  Your body has no choice but to turn it into fat.  Carbohydrates are useless for anything but energy.  Today nobody, except high performing athletes, spend anything close to the energy required to burn a low to average consumption of carbohydrate.  To learn morego here:

Joseph asks…

How to cure Carb and Sugar addiction?

I think eating too many breads and sugar are my problem? How do i curb these cravings

kirsten1 cropped Your Questions About Carbohydrate Addicts

admin answers:

Carbohydrate addiction and sugar addiction are the same.   You don’t curb an addiction.  We finally have a cure, but you are not going to find too many ‘experts’ telling you about that.  Suffice it to say: If you want to get rid of an addiction, whether tobacco, alcohol, drugs,  or any other kind you must cure the addiction.  Not till your symptoms are gone can you call yourself cured.  To learn how to do that the easy way, with minimum discomfort, check out the Carbohydrate Addicts Manual right here.

Charles Your Questions About Carbohydrate Addicts

Charles asks…

Carb Addiction/Weight Loss!?

I’ve been gaining some weight, and I really want to loose it. I have a huge carb addiction lol and it doesn’t help with the weight loss. I’m at about 130 right now and id like to be at 110. (if that sounds unhealhty trust me it isn’t for my size). What should i do to loose this at a fast pace?!

kirsten1 cropped Your Questions About Carbohydrate Addicts

admin answers:

It’s very easy, – just cure your addiction.  You simply treat it the way you treat any addiction.  What would you tell an alcoholic who asked you how to stop craving alcohol.  Would you suggest a diet of alcohol?  I don’t think so.  You will NEVER lose your excess weight for good till you lose your addiction.  In fact, the more often you diet the fatter you will get.

To lose the addiction you have to rid your body of carbs and replace it with lots of protein.   Curing carbohydrate addiction does not mean going hungry.  If you want to learn the easy way to a permanent cure, just go here:

I suggest this book, because it’s important for you to know how your addiction got started, what caused it and exactly how you can cure it.  This will help convince your subconscious that this is a genuine cure that will work permanently.  It makes it so much easier for you to follow the simple rules.   Remember; It will never be necessary for you to diet again.  That’s a good thing because diets don’t work.  Your body recognizes a diet as a famine.  It slows down your metabolism and focuses on storing body fat.  After the famine it will not rest till it has regained all the weight you lost plus a little extra for protection.  That’s nature!

That’s why continued dieting ultimately leads to obesity and probable type 2 diabetes.

How Carbohydrate Addicts Were Made – And Who Made Them!

Yes, carbohydrate addicts were made by people and it is not our proudest moment.  Whenever we try to compete with nature, we come out 2nd best.

Till I was 43, I had never experienced a weight problem, neither had any of my friends or members of my family.

Nobody had ever heard of carbohydrate addicts.

Then my thyroid became damaged and I was put on a diet.  It was the first new big diet.  It was the cause of much excitement. It was a way for people to break the monotony of the old traditional way of eating.  It was modern and more suited to the times.  It was very Nineteen Seventies.  In reality it was a diet made up of exactly the opposite foods to those human beings had evolved and thrived on.

The diet was highly publicized and it was inferred that science stood behind what was a new and innovative way to eat.  Only one thing stood in the way of mass acceptance:  In those days, the vast majority of people were slim people.

But here is the sting in the tail.  A virtual epidemic of high cholesterol had just been revealed and the new diet quickly became the only way to cure it.  This was a union of convenience that nobody could have anticipated and it’s unlikely anyone noticed.  But it went on to cause a disaster.  That disaster can be viewed today by those who can look back to when it began, to see the whole sorry picture.

Like millions of others, I was a victim. The only difference about me is that today, I can look back and see how and when it happened from inception. Who caused it and how they were able to get away with it.  I see clearly how it has evolved into an obesity epidemic, and a soon to be acknowledged type2 diabetes epidemic.  I am acutely aware of the fact that today we see little kids start school already handicapped by obesity – and I know that didn’t have to happen.

How did carbohydrate addicts enter into that picture?

From the day I began to diet, I spent around twenty years locked in battle with my ever increasing weight.  I tried every diet ever invented, but finally, seven years ago, I came to my senses. – I stopped dieting.  I looked closely at what I had changed about my food and lifestyle since aged 43, and what I had continued to do differently since then.  I remembered how my body used to respond to normal food compared to how it responded after I began to diet.

I got back in touch with my body and changed my food back to how it had been twenty years earlier.  That’s when the penny dropped. You see,  I had been a smoker for twenty-five years and symptoms of addiction were imprinted on my mind.  I should have recognized it a lot sooner.  I should also have been suspicious of the fact that if the high cholesterol issue was genuine, how had people survived for generations on the ‘wrong diet’?

That’s when I knew I had been addicted to carbohydrates since I was forced to change my diet.  I began to connect the dots.  I remembered many other things that had unsettled or annoyed me in the past.  About things told to everyone as gospel, yet often they were things that just did not make any sense to me.  Suddenly I understood why I would regain the weight after each weight loss.  Why I would always regain extra weight after each diet and why my body just didn’t feel like it used to.

Today I understand completely why people are getting fat and why this will continue to get worse.

I know what has caused almost sixty % of the population to become carbohydrate addicts.

Above all: I know why we must never diet.  Our body has not evolved for diets.  It recognizes only famine.  When we diet we alert our body to a famine. The body slows down to store energy.  When the famine is over your body will not only regain the weight, it will add a little extra each time to protect against the next famine.  I know all this now, but I also know how to turn it around.

I have come to realize that we must cure the addiction before we can hope to lose the weight for good.  That’s something I have proved over the past seven years.   I went from 80 kilos to 65 kilos in a very short time.  My body and I agreed that’s the right weight for my age and that’s where I’ve stayed.  I never diet and I never count calories, I don’t have cravings and I never go hungry.

We seem to have lost touch with Mother Nature’s idea of the right foods for our body.  We were not designed to be fat, or to turn into carbohydrate addicts.  We were simply never meant to diet.  Our body is not built for that.  We need to please our body rather than some abstract, foolish ideas promoted by people who are not licensed to tell us what to eat.   Unfortunately, there IS no such license!

Carbohydrate addicts are on their own.  Too much bad information has crept into dogma.  Too much mystification has been weaved around the workings of our body.  People no longer understand how it works.  Too much money is vested into a culture that says breakfast must be cereal and carbohydrates are essential to life.  Why, today you can even get protein cereal!  A contradiction in term.  Every day big corporations and fake professions chip away at our confidence and common sense.  It’s too big for us to change.  But we can start in our own family.

Carbohydrate addicts were made, which means they can be unmade!

Your Questions About Carbohydrate Addicts

Donna Your Questions About Carbohydrate Addicts

Donna asks…

What are the genetic sex difference or problems that causes women to live longer then men?

I’ve altered my diet, which is 80% healthy and 20% slip-ups. I’m the only one that cooks in my household. Therefore, my parents consume whatever I compose. My dad (48) has Diabetes (type 1: needles & Insulin) and Depression and my mom has Asthma (50). However, I know their eating God-knows-what behind my back. I don’t desire my parents to be part of the proportion of passing away early. Therefore, all I can do is frighten them on the crisis, work out with them and maintain cooking. There are 70% more women then men in my family, since complications. As experience also being around my family and other, it appears that women has additional emotion and physical problems than men. I’ve done some reading and studying for myself, loved ones and parents. Which leads to my question… WOMEN: Pregnancy, Menstrual Cycle, Obesity, Breast Cancer, Cervical Cancer, High Cholesterol, High Blood Pressure, Colorectal Cancer, typeA and type2 Diabetes, Depression, Osteoporosis, Chlamydia and Other Sexually Transmitted Infections, HIV MEN: Obesity, High Cholesterol, High Blood Pressure, Colorectal Cancer, type A and type2 Diabetes, Depression, Sexually Transmitted Infections, HIV, Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm What am I missing or don’t recognize?

kirsten1 cropped Your Questions About Carbohydrate Addicts

admin answers:

You have completely missed the Carbohydrate Addicts issue!

You describe many symptoms of specific issue.  Most of them have nothing to do with carbohydrate addiction.  You have not explained what your 80-20% ration consists of and your question is unclear.  What I can say is that being responsible for diet of a diabetic requires that you understand the foods that are relevant.  Since this blog is devoted to carbohydrate addicts should can do a lot worse than reading some of the articles you will find here.

George Your Questions About Carbohydrate Addicts

George asks…

How did the American pioneer ladies become obese?

What caused the hardest working, most frugal of ladies, to become obese, in the 19th century? I’ve seen many photos from old photo albums and online of non-related women. So what caused their obesity? They didn’t have things to nibble on and spent all day moving and working hard, every day. Just curious. I’ve seen photos of them younger, at marriage, after childbearing, and then in their fifties on up…and the women became bigger and bigger over time, even the ones just wearing simple sundresses. icon biggrin Your Questions About Carbohydrate Addicts

kirsten1 cropped Your Questions About Carbohydrate Addicts

admin answers:

Accepted norms have changed greatly since the 19th century.  In those days there were no obesity statistics and people did not need to diet. As late as the 1950′s, even part of the 60′s,  an hourglass figure was greatly aspired to by most women.  36/24/36inches was considered the perfect female body.  Today the pendulum has swung to the other extreme and stick figures are the vogue.  The thing you notice in photo’s from the 19th century is that people were generally heavier than they are today, so was the ideal figure of the day.  To call them obese is a bit strong. They certainly would not have been by their standards.

Joseph Your Questions About Carbohydrate Addicts

Joseph asks…

Have any studies ever been done that show a link between obesity and lesbianism?

I have met roughly 10 women in the 10 years since I have been out of high-school who were openly lesbian, and each and every one of them was quite over-weight. I don’t think obesity causes lesbianism, but I think the issues surrounding self-image and self-esteem that over-weight women struggle with likely give rise to feelings of homo-sexuality.

kirsten1 cropped Your Questions About Carbohydrate Addicts

admin answers:

Perhaps it’s the love for Hostess snack cakes overriding the love for the beefcakes.  I find it hard to imagine that there is any other link.   In any case we are not likely to see a scientific study involving 10 people in any sample group.  Considering 60% of the population overall is overweight, finding 10 lesbians among them should not be a stretch.

James Your Questions About Carbohydrate Addicts

James asks…

I’m attraced to fat women who appear to be carbohydrate addicts!

it’s ruining my social and medical life. How do I deal with/rid myself of this fetish?

I’m a straight college male who is sexually attracted to fat women, and it is causing all sorts of problems. I have to go online to look at sites that I’m not proud of, ON CAMPUS using the SCHOOL’S COMPUTERS (I don’t have my own computer), because I can hardly see them anywhere else in the media; I feel that this fetish will lead me into a relationship where I have to force feed a woman into obesity and its various related illnesses (like in the movie “Feed”); of course there is the embarrassment of dating a fat woman in this society (not to mention the horrors of being one, and it seems as if they’re all losing huge amounts of weight). I’m thinking about getting rid of this preference for plus-sized women. What can I do, if anything, to become attracted to normal-sized women who are not carbohydrate addicts and do not lead me astray? Is it therapy, hypnosis, medication, what? Should I even change my preference of attraction? Thank you for your help, –Jason

kirsten1 cropped Your Questions About Carbohydrate Addicts

admin answers:

There is nothing wrong with liking a bigger women, but obsessive compulsive behavior that you seem aware of, yet are unable to control might require some professional help . You are entitled to like who ever you like and if people around you don’t like that then its there problem not yours. Live your life for you not others.  However, if you are unhappy about you desires and unable to control them, then you should seek help.

Sandy Your Questions About Carbohydrate Addicts

Sandy asks…

Women who are carbohydrate addicts and can’t conceive..Is that the reason?

Okay, I may have posted a similar question here at one time, cant’ remember for sure..so bear with me. but I think we need to speak out every now and then. I feel personally slapped in the face every-time someone here accuses (most) of us as being infertile because of age, obesity, STD.. So I wanted to take a little poll, I know this may be sensitive and intrusive, and of course I’m not standing over your shoulder forcing you to answer.. but if you would, I’d appreciate it, as I feel we need to stand up against the nastiness that’s thrown our way. The question is: Are you infertile due to age, obesity, or STds.. Are you infertile because you waited too long to try to have kids?? Severely obese? STD??

 Your Questions About Carbohydrate Addicts

admin answers:

As you have pointed out yourself, infertility has many reasons and obesity is very high on the list because it is so common.   It is a problem that affects 60% of the population.  Age is hardly a reason to fret over it’s simple biology.  When you stop ovulating you stop having children – at least naturally. Whatever the reason for your infertility, it is due to your own condition and no matter what statistics exist in the community they will not change or affect that condition.  I sense some anger and that’s understandable.  We all want what we want but we all have to live with compromise.

Personally I have had one child. I would have liked more but it was not to be.  I accepted that fact and learned to live with it.

If you are obese, and that is what causes your infertility,  Then you are probably one of millions of carbohydrate addicts.  If you focus your attention on curing your addiction, your excess weight will disappear as a by-product of the cure.

Your Questions About Carbohydrate Addicts

<img src="http://www.thecarbohydrateaddictsdiet.com/wp-content/plugins/digit

Joseph asks…

Adkins vs. The Carbohydrate Addicts?

I know a bit of the Atkins. I was wondering if The Carbohydrate Addicts diet was the same? Some cheap rip off of the Atkins? Or.. is it something completely different? P.S. Don’t tell me to not try it. I don’t plan on doing so, I simply want my question answered. To many people decide to go on N on about their knowledge of losing weight rather than answer my questions. <!–3
I specifically said, NO DIET ADVISE! I simply want to know the difference between the two!

kirsten1 cropped Your Questions About Carbohydrate Addicts

admin answers:

I’m familiar with both the Atkins Diet Book and The Carbohydrate Addicts diet book.  The answer is no, I don’t believe in diets.  Both those diets are about reducing carbohydrates to lose weight.

I have a very different and I believe much more relevant approach to carbohydrate addicts.  I believe the most important thing we need to deal with is the addiction.  It has been my personal experience that when I cured my addiction the weight loss, and it was substantial, was a side benefit.  Once the addiction was gone, so was the food cravings, the binges and all the excess weight.

Our body is not designed to carry fat and we were never meant to diet.  Mother Nature didn’t do that to us we did it to ourselves.  Just another example of human intervention where it doesn’t belong.

My book, The Carbohydrate Addicts Manual, is about how to cure the addiction and how to develop the healthy lifestyle that your body understands.  It can then get back to the job it was intended to do: Process the foods you eat, maintain a normal weight and keep that weight well balanced.

Daniel Your Questions About Carbohydrate Addicts

Daniel asks…

Carbohydrate addicts diet?

I would like to know the staple foods that are in this type of eating plan. A friend of mine has this eating plan as a part of his healthy lifestyle. He eats four meals a day at 4 hr intervals religiously. He has told me to eat a slow burning carbohydrate in the morning, then 3 small meals with lean protein in every meal with very little fat throughout the day. I would like to know the major foods to include in this way of eating. Portion sizes? and other general info? This is to help lose weight Thanks

kirsten1 cropped Your Questions About Carbohydrate Addicts

admin answers:

My book, The Carbohydrate Addicts Manual is not a diet book.

I do not believe in diets and neither does Mother Nature.  Today around 60% of the population is overweight.  Most are carbohydrate addicts.  Most of them would have been on diets several times.

You do not tell an alcoholic to follow a plan of specific amounts of spirits, beer or wine.  You don’t even tell an alcoholic to cut down on drinking – Right?  You advise them to stop drinking.  In other words:  This is about curing your addiction, not finding different or better ways to live with it.

The good thing about this is that once your addiction is cured, so is your weight problem along with your food cravings, binges and other symptoms that are a part of your addiction.

Donna Your Questions About Carbohydrate Addicts

Donna asks…

Any good ideas for carbohydrate addicts on a low carb diet?

My doctor has recommended a low insulin diet for me, and besides giving up my beloved diet coke, I’m not supposed to eat most carbohydrates. Most of my diet is carbohydrates – help! A salad just doesn’t fill me up… Cheese without crackers? Help me see beyond the carbs!!! No corn, very little white flour,

kirsten1 cropped Your Questions About Carbohydrate Addicts

admin answers:

Your doctor is right but he is ignoring the most important issue.  The one that makes it so hard, if not impossible to follow his advice.  You have an addiction called carbohydrate addiction and as long as you are an addict you are probably not going to cope with a reduction of your favorite foods.

The answer to your problem is really simple. Cure your addiction and the cravings and hunger pains you suffer will disappear.  A word of caution: Your doctor is obviously concerned about type2 diabetes.  Therefore, if you decide to follow The Carbohydrate Addicts Manual to cure that addiction, let your doctor know what you are planning to do.  I’m sure he will support you.  You need people in your corner to help you succeed.

Susan Your Questions About Carbohydrate Addicts

Susan asks…

What are the main aspects of a low carbohydrate diet?

Hi everyone I am thinking of doing a low carbohydrate diet ready for my summer holidays in mid August. What foods can I eat? How much should I eat? Does anyone have any simple recipe for food I can have at lunch while at work? How much weight will I loose? I only need to loose a stone and a half. Any info at all would be much appreciated as I have never done this diet or anything similar. I am a carbohydrate addict so I’m hoping when I stop eating so many carbohydrates, the weight will fall off. Truthfully, how hard is it to stick to it? Thanks everyone icon surprised Your Questions About Carbohydrate Addicts ) x

kirsten1 cropped Your Questions About Carbohydrate Addicts

admin answers:

Not hard at all! I think you will find there is a lot more research on the benefits of a low carbohydrate diet then there is for a low fat one.  The natural traditional foods that most people ate till less than fifty years ago was predominantly protein.  It is carbohydrates that are unnatural to our body.  Particularly processed carbohydrates.  Any food that comes out of a factory is fake food and your body’s digestive system will never evolve to process it naturally.

You do not need to eat lean meats on a low carbohydrate diet, a low carbohydrate diet shouldn’t be low fat and there is plenty of research to back that up.  A high fat low carbohydrate diet will not harm your heart. In fact too many carbohydrates cause problems and elevate your triglycerides.
Fat will also curb your hunger which helps you successfully cure your carbohydrate addiction.  That is,  if you decide to get The Carbohydrate Addicts Manual and solve your food and weight problems for good. Good luck icon smile Your Questions About Carbohydrate Addicts

William Your Questions About Carbohydrate Addicts

William asks…

Can I get diabetes even if I am on a very low-carbohydrate diet?

I am on a low (almost zero) carbohydrate diet, and usually I eat meat (fish, chicken, pork, beef) or vegetables. My only problem: I am addicted to Nutella. I eat it by itself all the time. It’s the only really sweet thing I indulge in. Will this make me diabetic?
