I've never craved anything when on my period. Well now for the first time i have. I had ice cream, peanut butter cookies and sugary cereal bars, and random sugary things (i usually don't splurge like this). Does anyone else crave sweet and salty foods when on their period? This is normal, right?

Also, when i get these cravings, they're unstoppable. Like i will NOT stop until i have that cookie, and if i do try to stop my cravings, they are on my mind constantly until i get it.

I am exactly the same way. It's always some type of chocolate with something salty. I think most women have these cravings.

Even though it's a small amount of blood loss during menstruation (usually) the body is craving what it's losing, sugar and salt.
Some people crave sweets, especially chocolates, others crave potato chips for the salt. Eat it in moderation. Also eat red meat to replace the iron.

Salty and sugary foods are craved by most females during PMS and during their periods. This is quite normal.

Oooo certain that's. Me and such quite some different females i recognize get loopy about goodies and salty meals before the era comes down. it truly is typical. And the salty food yearning before era ought to stem from the iron levels dropping.p.c.. is a situation in which someone craves salty meals even as pregnant or before the era.So take a multivitamin. comprise culmination and greens on your weightloss application. and in no way weigh your self the week before your era,the week of, or the week after because you'd be harm.Wait 2 weeks after your era.proceed determining and comprise diverse culmination and greens on your weightloss application.Drink 6 to eight glasses of water.

I'm PMSing and the soul reason I know it is because I get an uncontrollable urge to binge on pretzels, fig newtons, and vanilla yogurt. I get strange cravings like that allll at once.
