IN defense of KD... </font><blockquote><div id="quote"><font class="small">Quote:</font>
Serotonin is the brain chemical which helps us stay happy. Eating carbohydrates helps to increase serotonin levels and may explain why we sometimes crave these foods. So if you suffer from depression, do not follow a carb-restricted or low-carb eating plan, although it is very important to eat 'good' carbs and avoid refined carbs. A GI Diet is ideal for anyone who wants to eat only the healthiest carbs. Good carbohydrates include foods like oats, whole wheat bread, pasta, basmati or wholegrain rice, and beans/legumes.

I use cinnamon to help curb the cravings... it works wonders!
