How to Naturally Curb Sugar Cravings
Balance Blood Sugar with Intentional Meals
One of the most effective ways to reduce sugar cravings is to maintain steady blood sugar levels throughout the day. That means enjoying regular, well-rounded meals that include a balance of protein, healthy fats, and fibre-rich carbohydrates.
- Protein helps slow the absorption of sugars, supporting steady energy levels.
- Healthy fats offer sustained energy and reduce the urge for quick-fix snacks.
- Fibre-rich foods like vegetables, legumes, and whole grains slow glucose absorption, helping you feel fuller for longer and preventing those energy dips that lead to cravings.
Eating balanced meals that include protein, healthy fats, and fibre can help keep blood sugar steady, reducing the need for quick energy fixes.
Turn to Herbs for Support
Certain herbs have been traditionally used for their ability to support digestion and manage sugar cravings. Gymnema (Gymnema sylvestre), known as the “sugar destroyer” in Ayurvedic Medicine, is traditionally used to reduce sweet taste recognition, making sugary foods less appealing over time, and helps in the management of sugar cravings.
Barberry (Berberis vulgaris), is a herb traditionally used in Western Herbal Medicine to support digestive system function and gastrointestinal health. Barberry assists with the breakdown of dietary fats, stimulates digestion, and supports gallbladder function—all essential components of a healthy digestive process.
If digestive discomfort is fueling your sugar cravings, supporting digestion is key. By supporting digestive balance, Barberry may assist with wellbeing and healthy digestive system function, which in combination with Gymnema, can help in the management of sugar cravings.
