Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

My body tells me to devour six packs of sour gummi bears every afternoon.

Most of the things you read about on this topic are verging on pseudoscience (because nearly everything diet based is) and you're going to have to feel out how it works for you if you want to look into it, but we think the cravings you have are more about what your brain thinks are the best ways to get specific things.

So, while you're craving 'sour gummi bears', what your brain actually wants might be a specific vitamin or mineral that your brain thinks it can get from that and it's likely to have an alternate healthy source. Real hard to put into practice and change how you approach that though.
