[quote=Anonymous] Sugar cravings can occur when you're sleep deprived, PMS-ing, dehydrated, and when you're not getting enough protein and fiber in your diet, or have some kind of mineral or vitamin deficiency. So I would start by taking a multivitamin, drinking enough water and enough sleep. Then broaden the variety of fruits and vegetables that you eat. Make sure that you have protein at every meal. Make sure that you have enough fiber at every meal. You will notice that processed foods and certain carbs like white bread, white rice, regular pasta, aren't in any of these categories! Don't eat too much of those. They make your blood sugar spike. If you are intolerant to certain foods, you might benefit from a low-FODMAP diet (look it up - here's a great book on it: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1615193154/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1). In other words, it's not normal to have sugar cravings, however many Americans in poor health seem to have them. You're on the road to diabetes with that kind of lifestyle. [/quote]
