The human body is very similar to a computer. Follow his testimony very carefully. For example , before there was never an addiction to this or that dish , but suddenly - I wanted it to the point of impossibility. Not by chance. This internal computer sends you a message via ICQ: the body lacks certain trace elements. It's time to take action.
If you have never liked sweets , but suddenly you are drawn to chocolate , make a diagnosis for yourself: magnesium deficiency. The same thing happens if you want something sour. Basically , listen to your body. Reaching for something fatter , drinking fizzy drinks excitedly - bad with calcium. Achieve a balance - immediately get sick. They ate bread uncontrollably , and then they “tied it up” - before there was not enough nitrogen , and now everything is tip-top .
Previously, they looked longingly at food and felt complete indifference to it ( deficiency of manganese and vitamins B1 , B3), and now they are ready to swallow an elephant ( bad with silicon and tyrosine) - everything has its own explanation.
And yet it is better not to wait for signals from the body , but to try to balance your own nutrition , taking into account what and in what product is contained. And here's what to remember.
- Magnesium is found in chocolate , nuts, and fruits.
- Phosphorus is found in fish , beef , liver and nuts.
- Calcium is cheese , cabbage and mustard.
- Sulfur is egg yolks , cranberries , garlic , horseradish.
- Iron is meat , fish , cherries , greens , seaweed , a mug of cocoa a day will come in very handy.
- Zinc is found in meat and seafood.
- Vitamin B1 is nuts , beans and liver.
- Vitamin B3 is beans , meat and fish halibut.
Another way to recognize what is missing in the body is by symptoms.
- Stuck heart - low potassium - eat fruits and vegetables.
- Peeling skin - problems with iodine - eat seafood , onions and carrots.
- Teeth turn yellow - this is not only to blame for addiction to smoking , but also a deficiency of certain trace elements - eat beans , fish and bananas.

- carbonated drinks - lack of calcium ( found in broccoli , legumes and legumes , cheese , sesame).
- in the evening, drink tea with dried cookies - during the day they didn’t get the right carbohydrates ( found in meat , fish , legumes and nuts).
- liquid food - lack of water ( drink 8-10 glasses of water a day , with the addition of lemon or lime juice).
- solid food - lack of water ( the body is so dehydrated that it has already lost the ability to feel thirsty. Drink 8-10 glasses of water a day).
But if...
- the eve of critical days - lack of zinc ( found in red meat ( especially meat of internal organs), seafood , leafy vegetables , root crops).
- general invincible zhor - lack of silicon , amino acids tryptophan and tyrosine ( found in nuts , seeds , , liver , lamb , raisins , spinach , green and red vegetables and fruits).

Passion for food...
Passion chocolate-sweet .
More often than others, caffeine lovers and those whose brains especially need glucose suffer from “chocolate addiction ” . This also applies to other sweets. If you eat unbalanced , your body will also need glucose - as the fastest source of energy. Chocolate is the perfect way to do this. But keep in mind that this product contains a lot of fat , the excess of which is dangerous for your blood vessels and figure. Eat plenty of vegetables and cereals - they are rich in complex carbohydrates. And as a dessert, choose dried fruits or honey with a small amount of nuts.
Cheesy passion.
Spicy , salty , with and without spices... You can't live a day without it , its taste drives you crazy - you are ready to absorb it in kilograms ( at least eat at least 100 g per day). Nutritionists claim that who adore cheese . Of course , cheese is the richest source of these much-needed and extremely beneficial substances for the body , but fats ... Try replacing cheese with broccoli cabbage - it has a lot of calcium and phosphorus , and almost no calories. If your body perceives milk well, drink 1-2 glasses a day , and eat a little cheese ( no more than 50 g per day) and with raw vegetables.
Passion sour-citric .
Perhaps your diet is dominated by hard-to-digest foods , and the body is trying to increase the acidity of gastric juice to facilitate its work . If you have a cold, you may also be drawn to sour fruits and berries - an excellent source of vitamin C. Choose meals with a moderate fat content and do not mix many foods in one sitting. Avoid fried , salted and overly spicy foods , as well as those that have been overcooked. Having noticed problems with digestion ( especially from the liver and gallbladder), be sure to be examined by a gastroenterologist.
Smoked passion.
Passion for smoked meats and similar delicacies usually overcomes those who are on too strict a diet. Long-term restriction in the diet of fat-containing foods leads to a decrease in the level of "good" cholesterol in the blood , and in smoked meats there is an abundance of saturated fats. Do not get carried away with low-fat foods - choose one that still has a little fat. For example , buy yogurt , kefir or fermented baked milk with one or two percent fat. Eat at least a tablespoon of vegetable oil and a teaspoon of butter per day , even if you are on a strict diet. Scientists have experimentally proved that those who consume enough fats lose weight faster .
Food passions and diseases
- Onions , garlic , spices and seasonings. An for these foods and spices usually indicates respiratory problems.
- Olives and olives. Such an addiction is possible with a disorder of the thyroid gland.
- Ice cream. People with disorders of carbohydrate metabolism , suffering from hypoglycemia or patients with diabetes mellitus experience a special love for him.
- Bananas. If you lose your head from the smell of ripe bananas , pay attention to the state of your heart.
- Sunflower seeds. The desire to gnaw on seeds most often occurs in those who are in dire need of antioxidant vitamins . This means that your body has a lot of free radicals - the main provocateurs of premature aging.
