Eliminate Cravings For Greater Longevity

By Frances Keith


Imagine if too much of one's life is taken up by wanting or even dreaming about a certain thing. Or if one craves a thing too much for one's own good. When this happens someone will likely want to eliminate cravings.

The definition of a craving: a formidable urge or inner hunger that comes at unexpected times. A craving can be for something unusual that a man or woman does not normally want. It can also be for something that other people would not normally want.

A craving can create problems in everyday life. It can come at bad times such as while asleep or while at work. It can appear at even more troubling times such as in the middle of a crisis or during a very stressful experience.

Cravings often happen during pregnancy. Expecting mothers frequently experience them. Often they are for strange things such as hot peppers, radishes, or vinegar. Often expecting mothers experience them in combinations, such as hot peppers with yogurt or burritos and waffles. The strange, unexpected needs of expecting mothers can sound strange, but they can also represent hidden nutritional needs. For instance, a craving for hot peppers can represent a need for nitrogen or even sodium. A suddenly acquired taste for yogurt can represent a need for calcium or sugar. These urges are usually temporary and often disappear when the hidden temporary nutritional need is met.

Some individuals are affected by desires that are unhealthy. For example, a man may begin spending too much time at a tanning parlor because he desires the feeling that comes from the UV radiation. Sunlight typically stimulates a production of hormones that he may crave. Or he may need the effect the UV rays have on his circadian rhythm and biological clock. A woman may crave alcohol is she is an alcoholic. She may seek to drink booze at social functions due to stress or because of insecurity. A woman may choose to drink by herself because she is lonely and intends to experience feelings of freedom. In any case, an individual may wish to abolish his or her cravings if the cost of them starts to overshadow their benefits. If an impulse produces problems with health or financial issues, one may wish to eliminate those cravings.

A craving can be based on circumstances either physical or psychological. Physical issues can involve sickness, stress, or nutrition. Psychological issues can come out of anxiety, depression, and other problems. Eliminating a harmful craving will depend on whether the craving in question is rooted in psychological or physical circumstances.

A physical craving can be managed by handling its physical cause. If someone eats a deficient diet, repairing that diet can manage the unwanted urge or desire. When someone suffers from a disease or disorder, then treating that disease or disorder can produce an easing of symptoms when it comes to the unwanted urge. If a person suffers from stress, reducing the stress can surprisingly result in the removal of the urge.

A craving that has a psychological cause is best addressed in terms of that cause. If a food is craved, perhaps because it provides comfort, then finding another way to get the same comfort can eliminate the hunger. If someone is suffering from clinical depression, and as result craves a certain food or activity, then getting the proper treatment for this depression whether through counseling or getting medicated can eliminate cravings.
