Foodies, take note: whatever you want to eat is missing something. "Taste" is like a personalized business card that everyone has. Some people like the sweetness of cakes and candies, and some people like the heat of Sichuan hot pot... But in fact, taste is not only

Preference for a certain taste may also hide the "code" of nutritional imbalance.

The American "Food Information Network" recently wrote an article pointing out that taste is closely related to physical condition.

Craving for sweets indicates a lack of energy in the body; loving meat may indicate iron deficiency; eating too much salty food may indicate excessive fatigue.

An ancient Chinese saying goes, "Whatever you want to eat is what you lack." Now a large number of nutritional studies have confirmed that this sentence does have a certain truth.

Three truths about "mouth addiction" A study by the University of Calgary in Canada found that 96% of women and 68% of men have had "mouth addiction."

Under normal circumstances, we listen to our inner calling and satisfy our appetites.

It is most likely to become addicted in the afternoon: a sudden craving for a certain food most often occurs between 3 and 6 pm.

Because the blood sugar in our body is lowering at this time, people start to become lazy.

In order to cheer up again, eating something has become the choice of many people.

Women are most likely to suffer from stress and premenstrual period: Many studies have shown that when people are stressed, people's resistance to food will decrease and they will tend to eat more.

Sweets, in particular, stimulate the brain to secrete more serotonin, which relieves our restlessness.

Women have a huge appetite before menstruation, which is also related to this. They eat to relieve the bad mood or depression caused by premenstrual syndrome.

The five most fascinating foods: chocolate, biscuits, ice cream, potato chips, and cheese. Although these are all sweet foods, in fact, they also indicate that you have a strong desire for fat.

Taste preference may lead to nutritional deficiencies. In addition to conventional reasons such as geographical environment, eating habits developed since childhood, genetics, etc., preference for a certain taste may also be a sign of nutritional imbalance or health abnormality.

Craving chocolate may indicate a lack of B vitamins, especially vitamins B6 and B12.

B vitamins can help the body's metabolism. Once lacking, people will easily feel tired and depressed.

Chocolate can make people feel happy by releasing serotonin.

Countermeasures: Eat more foods rich in B vitamins, such as tomatoes, oranges, grapes, pears and other fruits. In addition, milk, beans, nuts, and spinach are all rich in vitamin B12.

B vitamins can improve the taste of food. Newly launched corn and rice taste better because they are rich in B vitamins.

Love of sweets If a person craves sweets, it indicates a lack of energy in his body.

Sweets mainly provide sugar to the human body and replenish physical energy.

In addition, a fondness for sweets may also be a symptom of abnormal insulin metabolism.

Countermeasures: Sweets mainly supplement energy amino acids, but we can supplement them by eating more lean meat, eggs, fish, yams, beans, yams, lotus roots, etc.

Children's greed for sweets can cause dampness, phlegm, and cough. You can make some lotus leaf mung bean porridge or fruit soup to satisfy your child's desire for sweets.

Love to eat meat indicates a lack of amino acids or mineral deficiencies such as iron in the body.

Many people are unable to resist the attractive aroma emanating from meat and oil, leading to overeating and causing metabolic diseases.

Countermeasures: You can use mushrooms, sesame and other fragrant foods instead.

Peanuts and soybeans are also good choices.

People who crave salty food are not because they lack sodium in their bodies, but because they are too stressed.

The more stressed and fatigued people are, the more they like to eat salty foods.

And strong flavors will dull your taste buds, leading to a vicious cycle of the more you eat, the more salty you eat.

Potassium, calcium, and iron deficiency can also cause people to eat salt.

Countermeasures: Green vegetables themselves contain a certain amount of sodium chloride, so you should add less salt when cooking.

In addition, craving for fried foods and sesame seeds and carbonated drinks may be due to calcium deficiency; craving for barbecue may be due to lack of carbohydrates; craving for nuts and beans may be due to lack of sulfated tryptophan in the body.
