Dear Fellow Cravings Partner,
Did you know that a seemingly harmless craving for a favourite food or drink could be sabotaging your physical and mental health?
It's easy to think that these foods and drinks are just HELPING us to get through the day, but they are, in fact, harming us. Our bodies become reliant upon the same foods that we depend on to give us energy. They no longer work, and instead require you to consume more for a fraction of the effect.
Let's take a look: Cravings for . . . - beer, hard liquor

- fried foods, fast foods
- pizza
- chips, salted nuts, popcorn
- soda (diet & regular)
- candy
. . . can lead to deterioration of our physical and mental health. At first it may show as some unwanted pounds and lowered self-esteem, but this can quickly turn into a vicious cycle, leading to more serious health problems like: digestive problems, hypoglycemia, obesity, diabetes, depression, toxic liver, high blood pressure.
Okay, so maybe you know that they're bad for you, but . . . It's So Hard To Stop Eating & Drinking The Things That Make My Life Easier! Does this sound familiar?
My friend Trish has been battling cravings for some time and her story is a frustrating but common one.
Trish a great mom to two kids, and works hard. She takes care of her family first, staying up late doing laundry, getting up early in the morning to take care of the kids. Genuinely, she's like a lot of moms who are juggling too much.
She starts every morning with a big cup of coffee with flavored creamer. She chugs the coffee while she packs school lunches and wrestles shoes on her kids.
She then hops in her car and drives the kids to school. Kisses them and heads to Starbucks for another cup of coffee -- but this one is loaded with syrup and whipped cream.
For lunch, she's running errands and grabs a fast food meal (loaded with sugar, fat, and chemicals), or swings by her house for an instant microwave meal (filled with sodium and preservatives).
A few hours later, she chugs a Diet Soda in order to stay energized and heads out to pick up the kids.
She then runs to karate and soccer practice, perhaps grabbing one last diet soda to keep up the pace. Her kids ask for a drink of her Diet Soda and she says "No, it's bad for you." And, even she sees the irony in this statement.
After dinner, she tucks in the kids and plops down in front of the TV with a bottle of red wine -- to help her relax after a long day.
While she brushes her teeth that night, she looks at herself in the mirror, thinking about how bad her skin looks, how much weight she's gained, and how she knows she's not taking good enough care of herself.
She climbs into bed, promising herself that that next day will be different -- even though she's made that same promise every night for months. She falls asleep, feeling like a failure for not being able to eat healthier and guilty for not taking better care of herself.
You and my friend Trish are not alone!
Thousands of women are on the endless cycle of "being good" and then "falling off the wagon".

Here Is Just A Sample Of What You'll Find Inside This 46 Page eBook: Here's An Excerpt From My e-book, "Craving Secrets" What Causes Cravings?
A food craving is much, much more than a preference for a particular food, or an impulse to buy a certain snack. A food craving is an intense and uncontrollable desire for a type of food. When you have a craving for a food, you'll go to any lengths to satisfy it. Cravings can be distracting and disastrous to your health.
There are many different theories on what causes cravings, and depending on the craving, you may be experiencing one or several of these phenomenon.
Doctors and dietitians agree that cravings come from a complex combination of emotional, hormonal and biochemical factors.
Low Blood Sugar
Low Blood Sugar is a main trigger for food cravings. This is normally caused when we become extremely hungry or are trying to follow a very low calorie diet.
Blood Sugar Imbalance
Blood Sugar Imbalance can cause cravings. If you often experience cravings, you may have an underlying fluctuation of blood sugar levels. These fluctuations can cause cravings, water retention, excessive thirst and mood swings.
Emotional Triggers
There are many emotional and psychological triggers that can cause us to crave food. As humans, food is much, much more than just nutrition. We use food to comfort ourselves and have strong emotional ties to certain foods and flavors. We also eat out of stress, depression and boredom.
Hormones
Hormones can cause intense food cravings, especially for women. A lot of strong food cravings occur the week before a woman starts her period. Hormonal swings can have a big influence on urges for foods.
Allergies
Studies show that certain cravings, like wheat, gluten or sugar, actually reveal food allergies. Your body may have a bio-chemical craving for the foods that you are allergic to.
In the following sections, we'll delve into each specific craving, the reasons for it and how to control it. More... |
