or maybe you're just not getting the right vitamins? a friend of mine couldn't stop eating bananas, when the doc ran some tests, he told her she had potassium deficiency. i'm the same when my iron, sugar or calcium levels are low, i crave foods with those things like crazy.

i am not sure that the body craves . . . i think it's the mind that craves various foods. sometimes, i crave healthy foods when my diet has been poor. other times, especially when i'm stressed, i crave comfort foods. i have heard of stories where people craved foods that helped them overcome deficiencies in their blood or muscles. but, a lot of cravings are for unhealthy foods too. i think that ultimately, you have to decide if the cravings are for foods that you actually should be consuming and if the craving to consume them is in safe quantities.
