- Energy Crashes
Sugary foods can provide quick energy, but meals dominated by refined carbohydrates may be followed by a drop in energy later.
You may feel:
-
sleepy
-
sluggish
-
unfocused
-
irritable
-
unusually tired between meals
These symptoms can also come from poor sleep, dehydration, stress, anemia, or many other causes.
- You Crave Sweets Constantly
The more often very sweet foods are part of your routine, the more normal that level of sweetness can begin to feel.
You may find yourself wanting:
-
dessert after every meal
-
sweet coffee several times a day
