Feb 17, 2023

Bitten Jonsson, a registered nurse, is an expert in food addiction (where sugar and other processed carbohydrates are often the biggest problem). She has treated thousands of people in the Nordic countries and continuously furthered her education in the USA.

Bitten has several years of experience in helping patients with addiction problems and has developed a "Holistic Treatment Program" for people with food addiction. There she offers training for professionals that is held both here in Sweden and online. Bitten has also developed a diagnostic tool to map whether clients have a harmful or a morbid addiction. This is of great importance to be able to provide the right form of treatment.

Bitten herself has previously been treated for food addiction. After several years of fighting and trying to take control of her addiction herself, in 1993 she received help in the United States.
