Nutritionist Rujuta Diwekar offers three tips to curb cravings

She also emphasises that appetites are as dynamic as our ever-changing moods and seasons

Ever feel like our bank balance takes a hit from those relentless food cravings every month? Well, you’re not alone. While giving in brings temporary satisfaction, it often leaves us with a side of guilt. Enter Rujuta Diwekar, with three insightful tips on how to navigate these cravings and strike the right balance. Firstly, she advocates for allowing ourselves to consume the quantities our bodies genuinely desire. Restricting intake during regular meals might lead to late-night cravings. Next, she emphasises that appetites are as dynamic as our ever-changing moods and seasons. “They’re a moving entity,” she wisely notes. Lastly, seeking validation from others regarding your food choices is a big ‘no-no’. After all, who knows your body better than you? Trust your instincts.
