A little bit more about amino acids and sugar cravings in particular.
The best to consider => L-Glutamine, it's an amino acid that makes us feel stable, calm and balanced. It is also great for our gut because it relieves bloating and helps fight fatigue. In terms of neurotransmitter promoters, it's a true back-up fuel source for the entire brain.
500 to 1500mg up to 3 times per day, early morning, mid-morning and/or mid-afternoon.
Good to tackle cravings for sweets, starches & alcohol. Especially great for those who become irritable & stressed if meals are delayed. Tested on myself.
Other indications: blood sugar regulation, eating disorder recovery, carb craving in general, digestive distress, hormonal food cravings. It reaches the starving brain within minutes and can stop almost immediately sweet/starch craving. The brain is actually fueled by glutamine when glucose levels drop too low. Glucose and glutamine are two fuels our brain uses. So instead of giving it sugars, give it a lil bit of glutamine :)
Picture: 3 runny eggs (with ghee) with black tomatoes and cauliflower. Didn't have any dessert because felt full. Peace FS friends.
