How to Curb Your
Cravings
Learning how to curb your cravings involves
several steps. Firstly understanding why you have dietary cravings
in the first place. Most, if not all cravings come from some
nutrient deficiency in the diet.
For example, many women crave Chocolate. While
commercial chocolate is fattening and not good for anyone wanting to
loose weight, the properties in chocolate are what women really
crave. Iron, antioxidants and certain essential fatty acids. When
these nutrients are in missing in the diet cravings begin.
Reaching for healthy choices of your cravings will
help curb your cravings for the unhealthier, fattening options. If
you crave chocolate give your body what it really wants - have a hot
pure organic chocolate drink rather than the commercial sugar filled
and fattening chocolate bar. Eat plenty of greed iron rich
vegetables and sea foods like scallops and oysters.
To curb your cravings for fatty foods add
essential fatty acid healthy foods to your diet like avocados, raw
olive oil (not cooked), flax oil, walnuts and almonds.
To
curb your cravings for sugar eat a diet high in lean proteins,
legumes and beans, dark green vegetables and take a chromium
picolinate supplement.
