Dark Chocolate
Do you struggle to stay away from chocolate? Next time you're craving the sweet stuff, reach for dark chocolate instead of milk varieties. When it comes to chocolate, the higher the cocoa content, the less sugar it has — so eating darker chocolate can help prevent insulin spikes and the ensuing cravings. Studies have also shown that women who eat or even smell dark, bitter chocolate report fewer cravings afterwards. It appears that consuming bitter foods turns down ghrelin, the hunger hormone, meaning you'll have an easier time saying, "No, thanks."
