Episode Summary
3 common physiological triggers for food cravings:
1. Blood sugar: When the glucose levels in your blood drop, you start to feel hungry and tired, causing you to look for food.
2. Nutritional deficiencies
examples
-
savory food (e.g. chips, cheese): sodium (salt)
-
chocolate, nuts, seeds: possibly magnesium
-
essential fatty acids/nitrogen: fish, beans, nuts
-
chewing ice: iron
-
red meat: iron
3. Hormonal imbalances
-
hunger and fullness hormones leptin and ghrelin: ghrelin and leptin signals regulate our sensations of hunger and fullness by sending signals to the brain for food intake.
-
Stress hormone cortisol: chronically elevated stress levels can lead to feelings of hunger, blood pressure problems and increased blood sugar.
-
Sex hormone estrogen
Bottom line:
Our body strives to stay in homeostasis, which is a state of balance and optimal function.
If you work with your body not against it, you don't get as many cravings, which makes weight loss and maintenance much easier.
Solutions

balanced meals at regular intervals: prevent blood sugar crash.
