About this audiobook

For decades, added sugar has been engineered into the modern food supply, tapping directly into dopamine-driven reward pathways in the human brain. But why is cutting back so uniquely difficult, and why do willpower-focused quick fixes almost always fail? In Quitting Sugar: The Science-Based Path, Emma Scott presents a clear, evidence-grounded guide to understanding your relationship with sugar. Drawing from neuroscience, behavioral psychology, and clinical research, this book breaks down how sweet foods affect brain chemistry, how to redesign your daily environment, and how taste recalibration actually works over time. Without shame, moral judgment, or sensational headlines, Scott provides realistic strategies—from managing emotional eating triggers to handling craving peaks—to help you build sustainable habits and achieve long-term freedom.
