Severe sugar cravings?!
Question: Severe sugar cravings.?
Has anyone ever heard of some health issue, or disorder where a person craves MASSIVE amounts of sugar.? I personally haven't, but someone I know swears there is, & she even goes as far as to put around a half cup or more of sugar into WATER, before she can drink it. She is gaining weight very rapidly, & is also on Seroquel (spelled right.?) & some blood pressure medicine. Any ideas.?Health Question & Answer
Answers:
When we crave different foods (sweet, salty etc) our bodies are usually lacking therefore giving us the craving. If she is craving so much sugar then she needs to go to the doctor and get tested for diabetes. Although cravings are normal, she needs to find out why. It may be as simple as she is addicted to sugar, but it may be a lot more complicated. Diabetes can lead to death and many other health problems including problems that can lead to the amputation of limbs. It all sounds dramatic, but is this person prepared to risk their life as they know it.? Advise her to see a doctor as putting on weight will also raise her risk of diabetes. Good Luck!Health Question & Answer
