We have all had cravings, either for chocolate, sugar, or any number of other foods. There is a science behind cravings, and it is easy to satiate them if you know how to decipher what your body is trying to tell you. Chocolate cravings are a cry for magnesium, while wanting sugar is a sign you need more chromium. On the more savory side, a pasta craving means you need more nitrogen, and fried foods indicate more calcium is needed. These cravings are just our bodies telling us what they need and we just need to decode the message.
Key Takeaways:
- Want to bite through soft, lip-smacking delicious good tasting chocolates? The fact is – your body’s been craving for magnesium. Known as the relaxation mineral, magnesium soothes anxiety, irritability and insomnia.
- Are you born with a sweet tooth? Well, chances are you’re craving for chromium that helps regulate blood sugar levels. So if you’ve been craving for high-sugary foods, it’s time to improve your diet!
- Bread, pasta! Delicious! But do you know that it’s your craving for nitrogen that makes you crave for carbohydrates.
