A craving for sweets can be explained not only by the fact that a person has a sweet tooth.
As the specialist warned, in some cases, a pathological desire to eat something sweet can indicate serious health problems.
Nutritionist Semiryadov, in an interview with the portal kp.ru, told in what cases one should be wary of a love of sweets.
Firstly, eating a lot of sweets can simply become a habit for you.
And this, in turn, turns into an addiction to the "feel-good" hormone called dopamine. By the way, cravings for sweets often occur in depressive states, which is also dangerous for the body.
People who suffer from hypothyroidism are also drawn to increased consumption of sweets. This disease is associated with decreased thyroid function, due to which the body experiences a lack of energy.
The third reason is a deficiency of vitamins and minerals, including the phenomenon may be associated with carbohydrate metabolism disorders.
