Quick Tuesday Tip! What do these annoying cravings mean??
Our bodies are pretty dang smart and are always trying to tell us what’s going on! We just need to get better at knowing the signs and what they mean! So before you do like I do and hunt down the chocolate or peanut butter jar… check this out:
Are you a salt craver? You might have low levels of electrolytes, be dehydrated, or stressed! Try to get more Vitamin B foods like nuts, seeds, whole grains, fruit, and veggies. 🌰🍉🥕
Is sugar the kryptonite? That’s a tough one… your body could be asking for quick energy, or be stuck in a bad habit loop! Experts say we might crave sugar when we’re dehydrated… so chug some water, and try combining fruit with protein to fill you up! Like berries and honey in unsweetened yogurt! 🍓🍇
Chocolate? You might be low in magnesium, chromium or Vitamin B!🍫✌️
And finally- starches and carbs calling your name? 🥐 You might be low on energy! Fill up on fibery foods like apples and bananas, root veggies, or cruciferous vegges! (Like cauliflower or broccoli!)
