Chocolate 

Can't get your thoughts away from brownies or fudgy candy bars? Your bod may actually be in some serious need of magnesium. Try swapping out the chocolate for one of these to kick those cravings to the curb: 

-Dark leafy greens

-Sunflower seeds

-Cahshews

-Pinenuts

-Soybeans

-Chickpeas

-Lentils

-Avocados

-Bananas

-Low-fat yogurt  

Sugary foods 
If you’re craving sugar, you might be lacking on one of many vital nutrients like chromium, carob, phosphorus, sulfur or tryptophan. wave goodbye to your sweet tooth with some of these alternatives:

-Fresh fruits

-Broccoli  

-Chicken

-Kale 

-Sweet potato

Oily foods 

If you’re craving oily foods this is your body’s way of asking for calcium, which is found in dairy products like milk and cheese, and also in green leafy vegetables. You can also find calcium in:

-Mustard

-Legumes (AKA: beans and peas) 

-Sesame  

Carbs 

If you’re craving carbs you really want nitrogen. This is found in high protein foods such as fish, beans and nuts. Next time you feel like grabbing a piece of white bread, try snacking on some trail mix or whipping up some tasty beans--this should do the trick!

Salty foods 

If you're itching for some french fries, potato chips or anything salty, really, your bod may be screaming for chloride. Instead of flunking that diet you have been working so hard for, try eating some fish with unrefined sea salt. Also, if your local grocery store carries goat milk, you may wanna sip on some of that to cure those salty cravings.
