Cravings Explained — What Your Body Might Be Telling You

😩 Why You Crave What You Crave

Cravings aren’t random. They’re messages from your body — about hormones, deficiencies, emotions, or even gut bacteria.

Understanding cravings helps you respond, not react.

🔄 Common Cravings & What They Mean

🍫 Chocolate
May signal magnesium deficiency or emotional comfort needs (thanks to serotonin spikes).

🍞 Bread or Pasta
Could indicate low energy or unstable blood sugar. Also tied to gut yeast imbalance (candida).

🍟 Salty Snacks
Often linked to adrenal fatigue or stress, as your body tries to restore electrolyte balance.

🍨 Sugar
Might mean blood sugar crash, lack of protein, or even gut dysbiosis where bad bacteria feed on sugar.

🧠 Cravings vs. Hunger

- Hunger builds slowly and is satisfied with real food

- Cravings hit fast, are specific, and often tied to emotions or habits

🧃 Simple Ways to Reset Cravings

- Eat more protein at breakfast

- Hydrate before reacting

- Try journaling your emotions before grabbing a snack

- Use fermented foods to crowd out sugar-loving bacteria

💬 Final Thoughts
