Episode 11: Karen Thomson Founder of The Sugar Free Revolution

In this episode we talk with Karen Thomson, founder of The Sugar Free Revolution and CrossFit Health Ambassador. We discuss sugar addiction and its role in obesity and chronic disease as well as its lack of acknowledgement in the medical community. We also discuss Karen’s self-experimentation with various diets including low carbohydrate, keto, and carnivore.  Karen shares her experience with continuous glucose monitoring and the surprising effects of both food and non-food items on her health.  We also dive into the role of psychology in nutrition and addiction counseling and how practitioners can better counsel their patients.
