Mark Bell's Power Project MBPP EP. 618 - Food & Pornography Are Just As Addictive as Drugs ft. Anna Lembke
Food as a Drug
- Modern food, with excess salt, fat, and sugar, acts like a drug.
- It releases excessive dopamine, making moderation and conscious limitation crucial.
Pleasure-Pain Balance
- The brain's pleasure-pain balance seeks homeostasis, downregulating dopamine after pleasure.
- Repeated pleasure-seeking leads to tolerance, stronger cravings, and potential addiction.
Dopamine Fasting
- Acknowledge constant dopamine stimulation from modern rewards and its negative impact.
- Reset your reward pathway with a dopamine fast to restore homeostasis.
