90. What Your Cravings Are Really Trying to Tell You — Renegade Remission: Holistic Healing for Cancer, Heart Disease, Alzheimer's, Dementia, MS, ALS

If cravings have made you feel guilty, frustrated, or like your discipline disappears when you need it most, this episode will help you understand what may actually be happening beneath the surface.

In this episode of Renegade Remission, we explore why cravings are not simply a failure of willpower. They are often signals from a body trying to meet a need, whether that need is steadier blood sugar, quick energy, comfort, stress relief, rest, or emotional support. You’ll learn how stress hormones, sleep loss, fatigue, under-eating, restriction, emotional depletion, and the brain’s reward system can all intensify cravings, especially during chronic or serious illness.

In this episode, you’ll understand:

Why cravings often get stronger when your body is under more stress
How blood sugar swings can create urgent cravings for quick energy
Why stress hormones increase the desire for sugar, starch, salt, and comfort foods
How emotional depletion can disguise itself as food cravings
Practical ways to decode cravings and respond without shame or restriction

Listen now to understand what your cravings may be trying to tell you and how to respond in a way that supports your body instead of leaving you stuck in guilt.
