Yes, there are support groups and organizations that specifically focus on helping people with sugar addiction or those who struggle with compulsive eating behaviors related to sugar. Some of these groups follow a similar 12-step model like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and provide a supportive community for individuals seeking to overcome their sugar addiction.
One of the well-known groups that follow a 12-step model for sugar addiction is "Food Addicts in Recovery Anonymous" (FA). FA is a program based on the principles of Alcoholics Anonymous and focuses on abstinence from certain foods, including sugar and flour. It provides a fellowship of individuals who share their experiences, strengths, and hope to help one another recover from addictive eating patterns.
Other organizations or support groups that may address sugar addiction or compulsive eating include Overeaters Anonymous (OA) and Eating Disorders Anonymous (EDA). Although not exclusively focused on sugar addiction, these groups offer a supportive environment for individuals dealing with various forms of food addiction and disordered eating behaviors.
If you or someone you know is struggling with sugar addiction or compulsive eating, consider reaching out to these support groups or seeking help from a qualified healthcare professional or registered dietitian with experience in addressing addictive eating patterns. A holistic approach that combines support, counseling, and education can be beneficial in managing and overcoming sugar addiction.
