Sugar cravings are often blamed on lack of discipline, emotional eating, or simply “loving sweets.” But in many cases, cravings are actually signals from your body that something deeper is happening.

In this episode, I break down some of the common physiological reasons sugar cravings can show up — including digestion, energy regulation, and nutrient needs.

When we understand what the body is asking for, cravings start to make a lot more sense.

In this episode we talk about:

• Why sugar cravings are often connected to digestion• How blood sugar regulation influences cravings• The role minerals and energy balance can play• Why cravings aren’t a character flaw or lack of willpower• How supporting the body can change the craving cycle

I also created a Medium Carb Guide to help you choose carbohydrates that support more balanced energy and fewer cravings.
