Thank you Sarah!
I welcome recipes that are “very high in fat and low in sugar” and most especially as “desserts.”
What you have presented here has sparked my interest in the following. I am curious as to generally who the readers of this article may be who are “looking to cut back on (their) sugar cravings.” Most especially if these are “WAPF” people then I am all the more curious to know an “Integrative Nutrition Health Coach” perspective as to how an individual who is eating a “WAPF” diet may have “sugar cravings”.
I’m also interested in knowing where one can be trained as a “Integrative Nutrition Health Coach.” Does the training include the impact of diet toward the development of “sugar cravings”? ……… Does the “Integrative” aspect include the element of the reward centers in the brain? ………
Looking forward to learning more from you!
Hi Chef-doctor! I have been eating the wise traditions diet for several years now, but I have struggled with sugar cravings myself in the past, even on this diet. Although it is significantly less than before I changed my diet. There are many other people in the WAP community who have too. I am not sure the exact reason, but everyone’s makeup is a little different. It could be related to hormones, adrenals being taxed or other reasons. I have heard others have had success getting rid of their cravings following the advice of Julia Ross who wrote The Craving Cure.
As far as my health coach certification, I received it from The Institute for Integrative Nutrition (IIN). The training does touch on sugar and other cravings.
Absolutely delightful! This sugar-free fudge hits the spot without the guilt. A perfect blend of flavors and fats, it\’s a must-try for anyone looking to satisfy their sweet tooth in a healthier way. Simple, delicious, and a fantastic way to incorporate more healthy fats into your diet!
I’ve heard promising reports from community members who have successfully eliminated their sugar cravings by following Julia Ross’s approach in ‘The Craving Cure.’ Her method identifies specific craving profiles and uses targeted amino acid supplements to address the underlying neurotransmitter imbalances. For instance, the amino acid glutamine (500mg) can provide immediate relief from hypoglycemic cravings for sugar and starches.
