I have a huge sweet tooth and crave sugar throughout the day. But I've been told by health professionals that sugar is not good for our bodies and that I should decrease my intake. Usually if you're craving sugar it means you are not getting enough protein in your diet. I was told to eat more snacks in between meals with high protein - like nuts, peanut butter, etc. By eating protein throughout the day before you crave sugar, you will actually stop the cravings from ever occurring. I've been decreasing my sugar intake for about one monoth now, and although it's been one of the hardest things to do, my cravings have decreased. So I would recommend that you add more protein in your diet.
