This week, my guest is Michael Collins, the author of Sugar Addiction. A past Chairman of the Board of the Food Addiction Institute, Michael has been completely sugar-free for over 30 years. Together, we discuss the inflammation that sugar causes, its addictive properties, and how we can successfully "breakup" with sugar for good.
