Overcome those cravings TODAY with Dr. Jockers and his Top 3 Quick Tips to End Sugar Cravings! Learn how to shift your mindset and realize that falling victim to unhealthy eating is a choice that starts when you choose not to sabotage yourself with negative self-talk. Building on from that is how can we start to link pain in our bodies with the unhealthy food that we eat, making an association between the two that gives us a chance to resist the craving. Drinking water (with a pinch of salt) when you feel a craving coming is another great idea to break the state of craving. Prioritizing good sleep rounds out the tips as Dr. Jockers also shares on leptin desensitization which makes you hungrier and experience more cravings. Remember to start winding down from 9 pm too!
