Episode 3501:
Jill Coleman and Jade Teta explain why what you crave is not random, walking through the four brain chemicals behind the pull toward sweets, fat, starch or sheer volume. They then show how nutrition and small behavior changes can shift that chemistry, so cravings become something you can work with rather than fight.

Quotes to ponder:
"The differences in what people crave is not coincidence, it is based on chemical messengers and brain neurohormones, or neurotransmitters."
"People with low serotonin often crave starchy, salty foods like bread, pasta, chips, and pretzels."
"Your brain chemistry profile is not fixed; it is always changing."
