Guest guest Posted August 30, 2004 Report Share Posted August 30, 2004 Sat Nam Everyone, > Sugar and chocolate cravings, may increase during one's monthly cycle, but found that it can be curbed through the use of organic blackstrapp molassses (unsulphured). It's been very effective for me. One to two (one works for me) teaspons is all you need everytime you feel the urge for something sweet, and the craving is gone. Overtime, it helps to eliminating your taste for sweets! One of the reasons why many of us may crave sugar, could be due to something called candidiasis albicans, a yeast infection/fungus that lives and begins in the intestinal tract. Everyone has a certain amount of candida that lives in balance with the good bacteria found in the intestinal tract. It's when the body's ph balance becomes unbalanced, that this type of fungus/bacteria will rapidly multiply into Candidiasis Albicans, which in turn, finds its way to other parts of the body, via "sporing" through the intestinal walls and into the rest of the body. This is has also been referred to as the "leaky gut" syndrome. Through the use of antibiotics, the good bacteria in the stomach is destroyed, can trigger a host of other ailments such as, migrains, pms, skin rashes, eczema, psorisis, depression, menstrual irregularities, muscle/joint aches and pains, constipation, weight gain, endometriosis, allergies, cravings, irritability, stress, fatique and feelings of dullness. These are symptoms that most doctors will refuse to equate antibiotics or Candidiasis being the root cause. Candidiasis can be quite debilitating and believed to be the culprit to many ailments. What you can do, is after a round of antibiotics, you may want to consider taking acidophilus, which restores the good flora back into the digestive tract. Also, eliminating dairy, yeast & sugar helps too.

Let me first start off by telling you that I am a sugar addict. I don't eat sugar now but it is something I must maintain a constant awareness of. Whatever you do DO NOT go cold turkey when it comes to sugar if you really feel a sort of obsession with it. The cravings will intensify. Don't let yourself go too long without eating being hungry will increase temptation. Eat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
