The better we understand our cravings, the more equipped we are to deal with them without feeling guilty or deprived. You’ll discover why cravings aren’t really your fault, and what may be causing them. Do you ever notice how some foods make you crave more food? This is how processed food is designed – to keep us wanting more. This ties into the topic of portion control too – processed food can be addicting. Foods that are addictive can cause us to crave them. Think about when you’re stressed – what do you crave? Do you crave the same thing when you’re bored or hungry?
