[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Addiction - Alcohol The Alcoholics Anonymous 12 Steps 1.) We admitted we were powerless over alcohol--that our lives had become unmanageable. 2.) Came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity. 3.) Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood Him. 4.) Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves. 5.) Admitted to God, to ourselves and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs. 6.) Were entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character. 7.) Humbly asked Him to remove our shortcomings. 8.) Made a list of all persons we had harmed, and became willing to make amends to them all. 9.) Made direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others. 10.) Continued to take personal inventory and when we were wrong promptly admitted it. 11.) Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God as we understood Him, praying only for knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry that out. 12.) Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to alcoholics, and to practice these principles in all our affairs.

Addiction - Food ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Flavour is the key to the attractiveness of fast food. It is not just the blend of salt, sugar and fat, but the combination of taste and smell which is now micro-engineered by the big food corporations’ chemists. Nearly 90 per-cent of what we think of as taste is actually smell. We can distinguish about 20,000 smells in the tiniest amounts. Smell is a powerful sensation that helps to shape our psychology, and is strongly linked to memory.

A dults often return to the smells of their childhood as “comfort food” without knowing why. Fast food companies use this knowledge to sell more food. They use colour additives to make the food look good, and chemical flavour compounds to make it taste right. Americans spend $110 billion a year on fatty, sugary fast food, more than they do on films, videos, books, magazines, newspapers and music combined. Nearly two thirds of Americans are now overweight, and the US Surgeon General says 300,000 Americans die each year of obesity. Fast food chains have now spread through Europe and Asia. People are getting fatter in those countries. Addiction - Food ,[object Object],[object Object]
