Foods That Contribute To Craving

Dear Reader,

Science is coming to support the idea that someone can be addicted to foods - especially the ones that taste good. Loaded with sugar, fat and salt, eating these foods triggers feel good chemicals in the brain, and fuels the need to eat again. The reward signals from eating overpower signals of fullness or satisfaction, and so the person keeps eating. Just like addictive drugs, some people even develop a tolerance for food, and have to eat more and more, only to see that food satisfies them less and less.

There's been interesting work to bring science a better understanding about sugar, a substance that acts on our bodies like a drug, rather than a food.

In the 100 years between 1909 and 1999, per person sugar consumption nearly doubled in the United States. People went from taking in about 80 pounds of added sweeteners a year to a massive 152 pounds by 1999, 64 pounds of which was high fructose corn syrup that's a good portion of sodas and processed foods. Artificial sweeteners also played a part in that rise. The numbers for 2012 tell us that the average American took in over 20 pounds of artificial sweeteners that year.

But sweeteners are only part of the story when it comes to food addiction. What people don't realize is that flour has the same affect on blood sugar that sweeteners do. Refined flour and cereal products, heavily marketed since the 1960s, have seen an increase in consumption every ten years. In the year 2000, the average American took in 146 pounds of flour and cereal, up from 113 pounds in 1967. Eating a piece of white bread is the equal of eating five teaspoons of sugar; two slices the equal of the sugar in a can of soda.

By the end of the 20th century, Americans had the highest consumption of sweeteners and flour per year of any country in the world. The trouble is that many of the foods we used to avoid fat (low-fat, no-fat foods) are made up of sweeteners and flours. These cause a big surge in insulin, adversely affecting the blood sugar of a large population of unsuspecting people. This may also be driving, in part, the obesity epidemic, as these foods leave us hungry again in hours, sending us back for more.

Wheat and dairy can have morphine like effects on the brain, and research has shown that wheat derived exorphines bind to the opiate receptors in the brain. Dairy contains caseomorphins, while wheat and other gluten grains naturally have gluteomorphins. For some people, these opiate producing food choices can become addictive.

Foods That Contribute To Craving Continued...

What's more, our satiety mechanisms can be overridden by flavor enhancers, artificial colors and additives to food, as well as enticing combinations of foods with sweeteners, flours, dairy and unhealthy fats that are tempting beyond reason.

These foods can actually change the chemistry of your brain, bringing on cravings and also driving the compulsion to overeat. Some people go through severe withdrawal symptoms when they stop eating these foods. Doubt this... see how you feel after denying yourself one of these foods, just how are you feeling in a few hours. Chances are you'll be cranky, foggy and a bit on the shaky side.

The food industry has indeed found a recipe for success, adding wheat to every imaginable processed food... things you might expect like breakfast cereals and granola bars; to things you can't understand such as canned tomato soup, powdered instant soups, taco seasoning, licorice. The companies have gotten the message - develop and market products that have the most addictive substances as these great tasting foods can make a company lots of money while feeding a nation's raving addiction.

To your good health,
