Do you have any idea if you are getting what you need even though you hear a lot about vitamins and minerals? For the most part, you probably are. However, there are times when we don't, and this lead to a very interesting theory. My mother offered me a book she read a long time ago, and it said that people who don't get the right vitamins and minerals every day not only get sick much easier, they also walk around with unusual cravings.

After I read the book, it made me think about a teacher I had in sixth grade. This person was your typical teacher, even if he was not very animated. Many times he would eat the chalk he had in the classroom. Though we thought it was funny at the time, I never thought there was a reason why he did it. Could it have something to do with the quantity of vitamins and minerals in his diet? I am not sure, but this book was telling me it was. It's a fascinating theory. But would it makes us eat chalk if our body craves for vitamins and minerals it is not getting?

So this might explain why you demand certain foods. That's surely not as disgusting as eat chalk, but this may elucidate odd cravings, particularly during pregnancy. Pregnant women necessitate more vitamins and minerals than anyone else, and they have to be sure they get them. If they are not getting the vitamins and minerals for themselves as well as what they need for their growing baby, does this drive them to ask for Italian dressing and hotdogs in the middle of the night? I am not sure.

I {really don't know if a lack of essential vitamins and minerals might explain cravings, even though the man who wrote the book made some excellent points. What I do believe is that if you are dieting you deal with cravings every day, and maybe if you make sure your amount of vitamins and minerals is what it is suppose to be might just stop a few of those crazy urges that make you over eat. Even though it's just a theory, maybe if you make sure you take a daily vitamin it might help you to stop your urges just in case it works. If you start a diet plan that ensures you get the right foods each day, maybe that, along with the vitamins, might provide you the head start you necessitate to keep on track. Just don't eat chalk, ok?
