Cravings aren’t just about willpower — they’re messages. Understanding their root helps you respond rather than react.
Common Cravings:
- Chocolate = Magnesium deficiency or emotional comfort
- Salty foods = Dehydration or adrenal fatigue
- Carbs = Energy dip or stress
Ask yourself: Am I hungry, bored, stressed, or dehydrated?
Respond Mindfully:
- Drink water
- Choose nutrient-dense alternatives
- Tune into emotional needs
Final Thoughts: Cravings are communication, not failure. Listen with curiosity.
