\u201cEvery diet I\u2019ve ever been on has failed!\u201d she told me in frustration. \u201cAnd it\u2019s always for the same reason\u2014my awful sweet tooth. I just don\u2019t have any willpower.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u201cLynette,\u201d I said, \u201cthis is not your fault.<\/em> It is not a matter of willpower. It is not a matter of discipline. It\u2019s a matter of one thing: your microbiome.<\/em>\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Why You Crave Sugar?<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
If your microbiome is out of balance, your sugar cravings can feel like an alien force that has taken over your body. That\u2019s not surprising: your cravings are the product of unfriendly bacteria that have highjacked your microbiome: the community of trillions of bacteria living within your body.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Both friendly and unfriendly bacteria inhabit your microbiome in an ongoing battle for dominance. The friendly bacteria are a crucial aspect of your health, helping to govern your digestion, appetite, metabolism, immune system, mood, mental sharpness, heart health, and bone development.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
By contrast, the unfriendly bacteria find numerous ways to undermine your health. If you crave sugar, the unfriendly bacteria are frequently the culprits.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Many of the unfriendly bacteria feed on simple sugars\u2014the easily digested carbohydrates that are found in sweet and starchy foods. Basically, they crave sugar.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
And when your unfriendly bacteria crave sugar, so do you.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
The Solution: Balance Your Microbiome<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Luckily, as I told Lynette, there is a simple solution. Shift the balance within your microbiome from unfriendly to friendly, and your sugar cravings will disappear.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Eating from the microbiome diet plan is a great place to start. Following are five foods that can help balance your microbiome and free you from your sugar cravings.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
1. Kimchee<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
This spicy fermented cabbage is a traditional Korean dish that has grown in popularity over the last few years. You can find it in many health-food stores or order it online. Although the traditional dish is very hot and spicy, many companies now make medium and even mild versions to tempt all palates.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
As a fermented food, kimchee is loaded with live bacteria, which I admit doesn\u2019t sound <\/em>very appetizing. However, when you picture those friendly bacteria supporting your weight-loss efforts, lifting your mood, and vanquishing your sugar cravings, you will be delighted to welcome them into your microbiome.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
2. Kefir<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
A fermented milk drink popular in the Balkans and the Middle East, kefir tastes something like liquid yogurt. It\u2019s delicious as a beverage or poured over a dish of fresh berries. You can even find kefir made from goat\u2019s-milk.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Kefir is also rich in live bacteria, which makes it a wonderful microbiome-friendly weight-loss food and a terrific way to end your sugar cravings. I often suggest to my patients that they use kefir in their protein shakes and smoothies, for an extra microbiome boost in the morning.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
3. Jerusalem Artichokes<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Kimchee and kefir are natural probiotics\u2014<\/em>sources of live bacteria. Jerusalem artichokes are your go-to prebiotic\u2014<\/em>a food that nourishes your friendly bacteria and helps them to dominate. Prebiotics in, sugar cravings out.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Not to be confused with regular artichokes, Jerusalem artichokes are small, knobby, starchy root vegetables also known as \u201csunchokes.\u201d They are rich in inulin, <\/em>which is one of your friendly bacteria\u2019s favorite foods. Soon they will be one of your favorite foods as well! Scrub them clean as you would a potato and steam them, bake them, or enjoy them raw, sliced thin, with lemon and olive oil.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
4. Leeks<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
This elegant green vegetable is another delicious prebiotic\u2014an inulin-rich food that alleviates sugar cravings by nourishing your healthy bacteria. Slice them into a soup, omelette or steam them lightly and dress with vinaigrette. Your microbiome will thank you, and so will your taste buds.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
5. Grapefruit<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Drinking fruit juice\u2014even grapefruit juice\u2014can actually promote sugar cravings because the juice is full of simple sugars. But eating grapefruit in sections or cut in half is a terrific way to break a sugar craving. The fiber in grapefruit is a natural prebiotic that nourishes your healthy bacteria, while the grapefruit itself helps to balance your insulin levels and stabilize your blood sugar.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Free at Last<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Sugar cravings can be a powerful force, one that even the most iron-willed among us finds hard to resist. But if you nourish your microbiome you can put your sugar cravings to rest.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
That\u2019s what Lynette found. After only a few days on my Microbiome Diet she felt a sense of ease with food that she hadn\u2019t experienced for a long time. And after just two weeks, her sugar cravings had vanished.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
