43. What Your Cravings Are Actually Telling You
About this episode
Cravings are one of the most common things women experience…and one of the most misunderstood.
Whether it’s something sweet in the afternoon, something salty at night, or that feeling of wanting something even after you’ve eaten…cravings are a signal.
In this episode, we continue the series “What Your Body Is Trying to Tell You” and unpack what may be happening beneath the surface.
Because cravings are rarely about willpower.
We walk through five common drivers:
• Blood sugar instability and low protein earlier in the day
• Mineral depletion and hydration imbalance
• Nervous system stress and mental load
• Gut imbalance (candida or dysbiosis)
• Hormonal shifts and cycle-related changes
When you understand what your body may be asking for, cravings stop feeling like something to fight…and start becoming something you can learn from.
If cravings have been part of your day, this episode will help you start connecting the dots.
