Life After Sugar 267. How to feel in control of sugar cravings after 50
If you’re over 50 and sugar cravings feel stronger or harder to manage than they used to, you’re not imagining it.
In this episode (which I recorded a few weeks before my 56th birthday), I talk about what’s actually happening in the body after midlife and why the strategies that used to work often stop working.
For most of us, shifting hormones affect blood sugar, stress, sleep, and cravings, so it's understandable that sugar can start to feel like the quickest way to calm yourself down.
But sugar's not a real friend. It's a coping mechanism that will end up sabotaging your best efforts.
So in this episode, I share practical, real-life examples of how to build new coping skills and regulation pathways that don’t rely on sugar or snacks.
The reality is that cravings may happen in your life, but by supporting your nervous system, your gut, and your hormones, you can learn to develop regulation tools that are realistic and sustainable for you, so that you don't need to turn to sugar and comfort foods anymore.
