Nutritionist Rachel Richardson said a lack of nutrients such as carbohydrates can cause blood sugar levels to drop and sugar cravings to increase. Additionally, the desire to eat sweets after a meal may occur due to zinc, iron, calcium and magnesium deficiency. In this respect reports Daily mail.
The nutritionist explained that people on low-carb diets may often feel the urge to eat sweets. This is due to a decrease in blood sugar levels.
Richardson also noted that if a person turns to dessert immediately after a meal, it may indicate a deficiency of vitamins such as zinc, iron, calcium and magnesium. For example, magnesium helps regulate insulin production, which keeps blood sugar levels steady. Without sufficient magnesium and carbohydrates, blood sugar levels may drop and appetite may increase.
Another reason for sweet cravings may be sensory specific satiety (SSS). Eating regularly can become less satisfying as it causes a feeling of fullness in the stomach. However, foods that digest quickly and do not fill the stomach, such as candy or cake, satisfy emotional hunger and trigger the desire to eat more.
The palate also gets used to meals eaten regularly, and desserts, on the contrary, are associated with new sensations.
