Due to the design of the human brain, any child that’s been traumatized in their youth is heavily advised to stay away from caffeine, alcohol, sugar, junk food, chemicals, toxins and poisonous medications. Trauma in childhood can hyper-activate the limbic system (aka – the fight or flight system), also known as the hind brain. This portion of the brain can gain control of the entire brain complex through fear based hormonal action and make the personality extremely irrational, illogical, childlike (regardless of age), violent and having an obsession with short term gratification, at the expense of self or other. Alcohol, nicotine, caffeine, toxic junk food, poisonous meds, narcotics etc further stimulate this part of the brain complex, which can lead to extreme physical, mental and emotionally issues in adulthood. The key to overcoming and healing from a childhood lived inside the North American cult of child abuse (and child sacrifice) is a full time dedication to healthy living.
