Dr. Tarman is the Medical Director of one of Canada’s largest treatment centers for substance abuse, and she’s spearheaded two unique programs for food addiction.

  • Overcoming food addiction
  • Connection between alcoholism and anorexia
  • How the food industry engineers food to be as addictive as possible
