Do you get the munchies at night? Maybe you’ve eaten healthy all day but come late afternoon, you find yourself rummaging through the fridge and pantry for something sweet.

If you're struggling with sugar cravings, addiction to food, or binge eating, you're not alone. Many women face these same challenges. You might think it's a matter of self-control or willpower, but researchers in obesity have shown otherwise. It's unlikely that we've suddenly experienced an epidemic of low willpower over the last 30 years. 

So, what’s really at play here? 

First, let’s get to the root of the problem: ultra-processed foods. These are items like energy drinks, cereals, ice cream, chocolate, and takeaway food. But don’t let their addictive nature fool you. They may taste good but they also mess with your brain and hormones.

In this episode, I share four practical steps to help you overcome cravings:

• Reduce Ultra-Processed Foods

• Eat Regular Meals

• Choose Better Carbohydrates

• Realign Your Circadian Rhythm

Remember, the cravings you feel are a result of consuming addictive foods. Just like overcoming a nicotine addiction, understanding that these foods are engineered to be addictive is the first step in breaking the cycle. Reducing your intake will stabilise your glucose levels and minimise your cravings.
