Food Addicts Anonymous is an organization that believes that food addiction is a biochemical disease that occurs at a cellular level and therefore cannot be cured by willpower or by therapy alone. We feel that food addiction is not a moral or character issue. This Twelve Steps program believes that food addiction can be managed by abstaining from (eliminating) addictive foods, following a program of sound nutrition (a Food Plan), and working the Twelve Steps of the program. After we have gone through a process of withdrawal from addictive foods, many of us have experienced miraculous life-style changes.
