Recovery from sugar addiction all alone is almost impossible. Addiction is a brain illness and
results in physical, psychological, social, and spiritual consequences. You need knowledge
about the addicted brain and lots of information and tools. Below is a list of some of the
trained professionals all over the world. They have very different backgrounds but they all
work with sugar/flour/food addiction. Several of them are also certified in SUGAR®, a special
evaluation method based on ICD-10 criteria for addiction to a psychoactive substance.
SUGAR® is aimed at helping clients know if they are addicted or have a harmful use of
sugar/flour and the client receives an overview of how the illness has progressed over the client’s
lifetime. From this assessment, there will be a tailored treatment plan. SUGAR® is developed from
ADDIS® which is built on SUDDS. See links for more information.
