Managing Sugar Cravings After Breast Cancer Treatment: A Holistic Approach

Question
I CRAVE sugar (donuts, cookies, candies, etc.) I know it's bad & especially since I'm just finishing up treatment for breast cancer.  How can I stop these terrible cravings?

Answer
Rosemarie,
In my experience sugar cravings like this are your your body crying out for minerals. Try bumping up your fruit and veg intake A LOT. Include root veggies in there especially- like radishes, carrots, sweet potatoes also concentrate on berries as well. Your body is probably really depleted from the treatment- you need to build it up with lots of good stuff!

Hope this helps,
