I sit down for a heart to heart with Functional Medicine doctor Yousef Elyaman, MD, founder of Absolute Health in Ocala, FL.

We discuss how I went through a period binge eating and vomiting. We discuss how these are addictive and pleasure responses and how to overcome these. Dr. Elyaman also points out the brain addiction pathways that are created.

I discuss my previous concussions and traumatic brain injury also contributed to regressing to my old habits.

Dr. Elyaman discusses the "happy, happy, happy, happy, blow-up, and repeat phenomenon"
