For example is recently been discovered through several studies that women tend to crave specific types of food much more than men do. It's been found that this is due to a woman's hormones. Individuals who constantly crave foods that are high in fats and sugars have been found to sometimes have complications regarding their health. Regardless however of why you crave what you do medical scientists now know and agree that food cravings stem from a complex combination of emotional, hormonal, and biochemical factors. One of the biggest factors for cravings is blood sugar imbalance while emotional and hormonal imbalances contribute to cravings too though on a far lesser scale.
It's important to manage your cravings and make good decisions regarding the food you eat in order to live as long and as healthy as possible. If you are having difficulty managing your cravings you might want to try one or all of the following tips from the Orange County chiropractors at the Gateway Rehab & Wellness Center.
- Do not skip meals. Skipping meals causes your blood sugar fall low which causes food cravings and binge eating.
- Avoid eating too much sugar and too much salt as these can make cravings much worse.
- Reduce the ingestion of drinks like coffee, tea and caffeinated soft drinks. Drink water instead.
- Avoid artificial sweeteners.
- Reduce your intake of processed foods.
- Exercise regularly because studies are showing that exercise reduces cravings for foods that are not necessarily good for you.
