In many cases, sugar addiction (just like other forms of addiction) can be linked to ACEs. When adverse childhood experiences go unresolved, sugar is easily accessible and can provide a temporary pressure relief valve from toxic stress. Sometimes, this way of coping is unconscious because the sugar-eating habits are reinforced by the brain’s altered hardwiring that craves that next dopamine hit. Then, there's the weight gain...

It’s clear that, in many cases, food is not the real problem, but rather a solution to temporarily relieve stress, feel comforted, and have a temporary escape from the bad memories, shame, and guilt that often come with trauma.

I am a trauma informed hospice chaplain with Kaiser Permanente and would like promote a recognition of some sort within KP to honor Dr. Vincent Felitti as we are coming up on the 25th anniversary of the original ACEs study. I had contact with him years ago and spoke with him 2 years ago, and am unable to reach him now. Would anyone who can help me reach him, please contact me at jr@jaimeromo.org ? Thank you. Peace, Jaime Romo Ed.D.
