Our body always lets us know when something is not working properly and cravings are one of the keys it uses. When you feel desperate to eat something sweet, salty, or creamy, it may indicate that you need some nutrients. Look at the gallery where I gathered the most common cravings so you know what they mean.
1/10
Chips
This craving can mean chronic stress, and according to some means, since it indicates that stress is affecting the functioning of the adrenal glands. Eat a sweet and sour pickle to calm the craving.
2/10
Sweets
You may be suffering fluctuations in blood sugar and that is why the body asks you for sweet. Eat a piece of fruit since it has sugar but it is natural.
3/10
Chocolate
It can mean that your body is deficient in magnesium and that is why it is crying out for chocolate. Eat only dark chocolate as it is rich in antioxidants.
4/10
Red meat
If you crave a hamburger or a sausage, it is probably because you have an iron deficiency. If you want a healthy alternative, eat legumes or nuts.
5/10
Soft cheeses
When your body asks for soft cheeses, it may be that there is a deficiency of fatty acids. Take Omega-3 supplements.
6/10
Carbonated drinks
This craving can mean that the body is dehydrated. Drink water instead of carbonated drinks.
7/10
Simple carbohydrates
When you feel like eating pasta, white rice, or potatoes, your body may be lacking in amino acids. Eat an egg to receive the nutrients.
8/10
Caffeine
Your body may be lacking in phosphorus which is necessary to feel the energy. Eat nuts to receive this valuable macromineral.
9/10
Alcohol
When your body asks you for alcohol, whether in drinks or sauces, you may have a protein deficiency. Seafood is a healthy alternative.
10/10
Acidic foods
If you feel like eating acidic foods it can mean that your body is lacking in magnesium. Sunflower, chia, and cashew seeds are good options.
