Craving Culprits

Do you feel it sometimes; the urges to munch on something even though you’ve just polished the lunch or perhaps dinner off your plate? Some food ingredients are known to trick the body into not recognizing the fact that it is always full. This lack of recognition is what causes for a phenomenon called ‘rebound hunger’. These simple tweaks in your food might actually help you in quieting your cravings.

Iced teas, sodas and other beverages are said to be one the biggest sources of high-fructose corn syrup. According to a research conducted by the University of California at San Francisco, fructose is that one food element that is capable of tricking our brains into processing cravings for food, even if we’re already full. It will impede the ability of your brain to use a hormone called ‘leptin’ which is a satiation hormone; and this is responsible for telling us when we’re ready to eat.

Canned food are said to be extremely high in a chemical called bisphenol – A or BPA as it is known. The FDA recently stated that it is a chemical which is a cause for ‘concern’. If a person is exposed to large amounts of BPA, it would mean that abnormal amounts of leptin are being generated in the person’s body; and this would lead to incessant food cravings and eventually, obesity.

People who ate breakfasts with only 300 calories or less for breakfast were known to gain almost twice the weight of people who chose to eat 500 calories or more. The reasoning behind this is that a big breakfast will allow for a smaller rise in the person’s blood sugar level. This would eventually lead to fewer food cravings in between meals.

It is an established fact that most Americans do not take their greens seriously. Leafy greens are helpful in providing a good amount of Vitamin B folate, and this helps in combating fatigue, depression and weight gain. In one particular study, the dieters who had the highest levels of folate in their body were seen to lose a good 9 times the amount of weight as those with lower levels.

If you do not give your body the fluid it needs, it will mimic the feeling of being hungry. If you’ve just finished a meal and still feel like you need to eat, drink a glass of water and watch your desires vanish into thin air.

According to researchers in Australia, people are in need of visual distractions to help in curbing their cravings. All you have to do is envision a sizzling steak, or something else that you’re extremely fond of. If you’re really hungry, the steak will seem extremely appealing; but if it doesn’t manage to tempt you too much, chances are that you just need another distraction and not another meal.
