one of the best things you can do to eliminate sugar cravings is take collagen at every meal. Collagen lowers our stress hormones which can cause sugar cravings when they’re high.
I have been amazed at the difference I’ve experienced by doing this. I no longer crave sugar at all.
Thanks. I’ll look into collagen. Most of my sugar came in drinks and other sources I wasn’t even paying attention to, not so much cakes, cookies etc.
good to know. I have a big cannister of collegen on my kitchen counter that I keep saying I’m going to add to my smoothies but haven’t started yet.
I started taking Vital Proteins collagen (10 grams, 1/2 recommended dose) about a month ago hoping it might help ease my Florida sun wrinkles. I’m beginning to notice a difference but am experiencing a bonus I didn’t expect. My arthritis pain has reduced from a constant 6-7 (1-10 scale) to 1. In a month.I’m stunned. I’d tried tumeric/cucermin with some relief, but not consistent. My doc wanted to put me on drugs. I disagreed and continued with occasional aspirin and walking and just living life in spite of it:)
I’ve been pain FREE for the first time in years!! I walk with ease and no grimmacing or groans. I’m gobsmacked!
Collagen is interestimg as it’s incomplete (has no l tryptophan) and there are anecdotal reports that depressive or anxiety prone people may have some of those symptoms so I guess that’s a possible side effect. I’ve also read it’s good to take vitamin C for proper assimilation/absorbtion so that’s something to consider as well.
Interesting. I just bought some collagen powder, though I have only been taking it at breakfast. I’ll try it more often throughout the day.
