FAQ

Why am I craving sugar on keto?
It’s not uncommon to experience increased sugar cravings on ketogenic or low carb diets. Carbs (both sugar and alcohol) excite our brains, temporarily raising neurotransmitter levels that might be low. Once sugar (carbs) are removed from a diet, their ‘band aid” effects are also gone. You are now experiencing your brain’s true biochemistry, not “enhanced” by carbs, and it might not be pleasant.

How can I stop sugar cravings for good?
Our cravings, mood and sleep are largely determined by neurotransmitters, the brain’s signaling molecules. The neurotransmitters’ precursors, amino acids, are available as supplements now. We use our knowledge and expertise to identify your specific neurotransmitter “lows”, and then tailor a personalized amino acid regimen “to close the gaps”. Your sugar cravings usually start diminishing within the first week of the therapy. It takes a few months for cravings to be completely gone and for effects of the therapy to become sustainable and permanent. On average, this process takes about 24 weeks.
