Do you also have a strong desire to eat something sweet immediately after eating food? Or in times of stress and fatigue, your mind runs towards chocolates and sweets? If yes, then you are not alone. ‘Sugar craving’ has become a big problem today, which not only increases weight but also creates the risk of diabetes. Famous celebrity nutritionist Shweta Shah has shared a very easy and natural solution to this problem. You can eliminate your sweet cravings from the roots with a special herbal drink.

‘Magic drink’ will be prepared from these 3 kitchen items

According to Shweta Shah, you do not need any expensive medicine to stop sugar cravings. You can prepare this drink with simple spices present in your kitchen. For this you need:

1. Cinnamon: It helps in keeping the blood sugar level stable.

2. Fennel Seeds: It improves digestion and gives a feeling of natural sweetness.

3. Mint Leaves: It calms the mind and suppresses cravings.

Method of preparation: Add a small piece of cinnamon and a spoonful of fennel in a glass of water and boil it. When the water is reduced to half, add some mint leaves to it and cover it for 2 minutes. Now filter it and drink it lukewarm.

Why do we desire to eat sweets again and again?

Nutritionists say that when there is a deficiency of nutrients like magnesium, chromium or zinc in the body, the brain starts demanding sweets. Apart from this, lack of sleep and excessive stress also increase the hormone ‘cortisol’, which causes cravings. This herbal drink improves insulin sensitivity in the body, which prevents frequent hunger and the desire for sweets automatically reduces.

Panacea for weight loss and glowing skin too

This drink not only reduces sugar cravings, but it has many other benefits. Cinnamon speeds up metabolism, which helps burn stubborn fat. Fennel and mint detoxify the body, which has a direct effect on the glow of your face. If you take it once a day, especially after lunch, it also strengthens the digestive system.

Other easy tips to stop cravings

Not just drinks, Shweta Shah also recommends some other lifestyle changes:

• Protein Rich Breakfast: Including protein in breakfast keeps the stomach full throughout the day.

• enough water: Many times we mistake thirst for hunger or craving, so keep yourself hydrated.

• Magnesium Rich Food: Include pumpkin seeds, almonds and spinach in your diet.

• Adequate sleep: By taking 7-8 hours of sleep, the hormones that control appetite remain balanced.
