What causes food cravings?
Food cravings are caused by a variety of factors including habit or routine, blood sugar levels, and how you feel about food. Or to be precise, how you feel about certain foods. Food cravings feel similar to hunger – but far more powerful. Very few of us have ever had the misfortune to feel real, genuine hunger caused by starvation – the hunger we live with tends to be extremely mild and no more alarming that a feeling that triggers the thought, “I’m a bit peckish”.
Food cravings are far more unpleasant and are caused by foods which manipulate our blood sugar levels – normally refined sugar or processed and starchy carbohydrates. They create a yearning for more – a yearning that can feel overwhelming if you don’t know how to respond to it.
How to control food cravings
Well, that question is wrong isn’t it?
How would you respond to a heroin addict who asked you how they might control their craving for heroin? Or a cocaine addict how they might control their craving for coke?
There are only two choices – they either have to take the drug all day, every day, for the rest of their life – or break free of their addiction.
The same goes for “how to stop hunger cravings”, “how to stop eating junk food” or “how to get rid of sugar cravings”.
The way you stop refined sugar or processed & starchy carbohydrates from causing cravings – is firstly understand why you don’t need them in your body and then to eliminate them from your daily diet.
That’s easier said than done if you don’t have a good guide – but Allen Carr’s Easyway programmes for emotional eating, sugar & carb addiction make it not only easy, but enjoyable to get free.
