Tips to stop food cravings

Drink more water:
Water suppresses the appetite naturally and helps the body to metabolize stored fat.

Eat smaller, more frequent meals:
Instead of eating three large meals a day, try eating smaller, more frequent meals. Then there will be less time between your meals and less chance you'll experience intense cravings.Eating small frequent meals keeps your metabolism charged and blood sugar levels balanced. If your blood sugar level goes down you’ll experience cravings.

Include more fiber in your meals:
Fiber is digested slower, keeps us feeling fuller longer . It releases its energy slower which keeps our blood sugar levels even and helps us avoid cravings. Fiber is found mainly in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nuts and seeds. Replace white rice, bread, and pasta with brown rice ,brown bread and whole-grain products.

Adequate sleep :
Sleep loss may equal weight gain. If you want to lose weight, you need to get enough sleep as inadequate sleep triggers food cravings. So get your full eight hours each night.

Eat slowly :
It takes around 20 minutes for your stomach to tell your brain that it is full . Chewing your food longer will help prevent you from over eating.
