Hi {{first_name}},

If you've ever promised yourself just one slice and then found half the loaf had gone, you're in very good company, and it probably has far less to do with willpower than you think.

Dr Susan Peirce Thompson, a neuroscientist and the creator of Bright Line Eating, is one of the experts in The Untold Story of Heart Disease. In the series she explains how two very common foods, bread and sugar, create an addiction in the brain that drives overeating.

That matters for your heart, because extra weight around the middle and type 2 diabetes are both linked with higher risk. A whole episode, "The Powerful Effect of Food Addiction", is given over to this, and another, "The Blood Sugar Tragedy: Overcoming Diabetes & Hope for Change", looks at diabetes.
