Our bodies are build to tell us what they need through the hunger or thirst sensations. That’s why you lust for something, because your brain tells you it needs that chemical compound that can be found in whatever you lust for. I’m not talking here only about physiological needs, because our brain is so complex, it knows what it needs to lift your mood too.
Dr. Oz says the following cravings could mean you are feeling these moods:
Mariah Carey has a markable voice that helped her reach the top of the pop charts, but recently she made headlines with her remarkable weight loss story. She lost weight rather fast (according to the plan, in 11 days) on the new Dr. Howard Shapiro plan “The Picture Perfect Prescription”. Dr. Shapiro said, “We helped get Mariah Carey started with the weight loss she has achieved – she lost about 10 pounds (5 kg) during the time we worked together.”

When I talk about nutrition and nutrients contained by food I use some terms that might not say too much for everyone. Let’s make it clear then and explain those terms:
Anthocyanins: Plant pigments that help protect you from heart disease;
Antioxidant: A substance that prevents harmful molecules called free radicals from damaging DNA. Free radicals may be a cause of cancer, heart disease and other chronic diseases;
Carotenoids: Antioxidant plant pigments that are converted to vitamin A by the body. There are several types:
beta-carotene – a major plant source of vitamin A, which lowers the risk for heart disease and cancer;
lutein and zeaxanthin – which are linked to a reduced risk of age-related macular degeneration, a major cause of vision loss and blindness in older adults;
