The best way to handle sugar addiction is to avoid carbs. Your cravings will vanish after two-three weeks.
A problem with carbs is the stimulation of apetite and worsening of OCD symptoms.
This results in lower impulse control and less control over food intake.A low carb diet has less than 60 gram carbs every day. The easiest way is to skip sugar, grains and sweet fruits.
If you are suffering from depression/OCD you also need to eat alot of fatty fish. Omega-3 will improve symptoms of depression/OCD
