Not sure why you are always reaching for sugar?

Sugar cravings can be caused by an imbalance of gut bacteria and an overgrowth of candida.

To combat this, soil-based probiotics can help clear out candida, and herbs like pumpkin pie spice, apple pie spice, and cinnamon can reduce cravings.

Eating sour or bitter foods can also help manage cravings, and bonus points if they are sources of probiotics. Try reaching for sauerkraut or kimchi next time you have a craving and see how your body responds.

Sugar-related illnesses like insulin resistance, pre-diabetes, or diabetes can be exhausting and frustrating–but they don’t have to be permanent. Join my free, live event on August 12th, A Day To Heal, where I'll be sharing practical tips to help manage blood sugar, along with a live Q&A.

A tidbit that doctors usually don't tell you... Candida overgrowth can occur anywhere in the body, including the brain. It's even been implicated in psychiatric conditions. In my humble opinion, it's very involved in Alzheimer's and dementia. It's why an older person will often have dementia with a UTI.
