Sugar cravings can get us all. Here’s a few ways you to help get them under control.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Hydrate. We can mistake thirst for hunger which depending on our emotional state could make us crave sugar. Keep the hydration up across the whole day to manage this.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It is ok to crave something a little sweet but stock your kitchen up with healthy sweet options and grab those before you go for the chocolate or biscuits. Some great options are natural or protein rich yoghurt and berries, baked fruit, banana with cinnamon and nuts.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Exercise is a great distraction and the endorphins might just take place of that craving.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The bottom row (low GI, protein, good fats and fibre) are all about keeping us full and keeping our blood sugar levels stable. Without the peaks and dives in our blood sugar levels caused by eating too many carbs or high GI carbs, we are less likely to crave sugar.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Getting enough sleep and managing stress are also very important in helping control sugar craving.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Also- a little chocolate each day is ok. Think a square of Lindt. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
