What Is the Dopamine Food Struggle—and Why It’s Not Your Fault

Have you heard of the Dopamine Food Struggle? Let’s talk about why cravings feel impossible sometimes—and how you can win the fight.
Ever wonder why cravings feel impossible sometimes?
It’s not just about willpower. It’s something I colloquially call the Dopamine Food Struggle.
When your brain craves a quick hit of pleasure (hello, cookies, chips, and comfort food), it’s not thinking about your goals, your energy, or your health.
It’s thinking about dopamine—the fast reward chemical that processed foods light up like a Christmas tree.
This is why diets fail.
This is why you feel frustrated.
This is why you deserve better answers.
At Journey2Wellness, we don’t just hand you a meal plan.
