When to Seek Medical Care
While a healthy amount of sugar gives your body the necessary energy to survive, your sweet tooth may become a sugar-craving habit.Because comfort foods like those high in sugar can help soothe stressful emotions, craving sweets can become a cycle.
Fortunately, several tactics, including food and drink swaps and lifestyle changes, can help you rethink your added sugarconsumption.
1. Stay Hydrated
Research suggests that food cravings, includingsugar cravings, can result fromdehydration.
To help address this, drink plenty of water throughout the day before reaching for a sweet snack and observe whether that reduces sugar cravings.In addition to water, consider drinking an unsweetened beverage that will still hydrate you, like unsweetened tea or cold brew coffee.
2. Don’t Skip Meals
Craving sugar can also result fromblood sugar level fluctuations, which can drop if you skip meals. This is your body’s way of entering survival mode and prompting you to eat more food to regulate blood sugar levels.
Eating regularly timed meals and snacks can satisfy your body and blood sugar levels.
Micronutrients and MacronutrientsMicronutrientsare nutrients that the body cannot function without, like potassium, calcium, and iron.Macronutrientsare nutrients that your body requires larger quantities of, such as carbohydrates, protein, and fat.Getting enough nutrients can help keep you fuller for longer and potentially satisfy your sweet tooth.

3. Eat Fruit Instead
The natural sugar infruitmay satisfy yourcraving for sugar, but it also offers nutrients like fiber, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.
Fiber found in fruit helps the body process sugar differently than sugary or processed foods. Plus, fiber helps thebody stay fullfor more extended periods.
Experts recommend limiting your daily addedsugar intaketo 10% of your calories.Diets incorporating whole food or plant-based foods, as with theMediterranean diet, may help reduce added sugar intake, naturally combating sugar cravings.Eating fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains, and other high-quality foods rather than processed, sugary foods can help you feel fuller and better control your appetite.

4. Schedule Your Snacks
Planning in advance and scheduling your snacks (and meals) can create a routine and keep your sugar cravings at bay. Bonus points if those snacks are nutrient-rich and able to be eaten on the go.
This type of scheduling can also be helpful when you anticipate a sugar craving during a particularly stressful or busy time.
5. Get Enough Sleep
Sugar cravings may likely pop up whensleep-deprived, as your body seeks quick ways to feel better. What’s more, research suggests that poor sleep is linked to diets that are low in fiber and high in added sugar andsaturated fat.
If you didn’t get enough sleep the night before, try taking aquick power napinstead of immediately reaching for a sugar fix.
6. Manage Stress
Keeping your stress levels under control can help reduce sugar cravings.Stress triggersthe body to producecortisol, which stimulates glucose (sugar) production.
Not managing your stress properly can lead toemotional eating. One study found that consuming added sugar may cause a reaction in the brain that encourages sugar cravings for people who are under stress.
7. Make a Swap
Consider making a conscious swap, trading sugary snacks for another satisfying treat. Experts suggest this could be a healthier alternative, like a piece ofdark chocolate, fruit, or trail mix.Or, try plainGreek yogurtwith berries for a dash of sweetness.

8. Exercise Regularly
It’s no secret that exercise benefits your overall health. Studies show that physical activity can help boostendorphinlevels, the so-called “feel-good” hormones. Experiencing more endorphins can replace the need for a sugar rush, potentially curbing excess sugar cravings.
9. Keep a Craving Journal
Taking note of your sugar cravingsmay help you understand what’s causing them and how to work around them. Consider jotting down the time your cravings surfaced, how long they lasted, and any other circumstances that may have prompted the craving.
This exercise can help you hold yourself accountable if you are gentle with yourself. Be patient as you work through sugar cravings, and know that you’re not alone.
10. Use Healthy Distractions
11. Don’t Go Cold Turkey
Reducing sugar cravings can be a slow process. Going cold turkey may not work for everyone. Plus, cutting back on the amount of sugar in your diet can triggersymptoms of sugar withdrawal.Try slowly removing a sugary snack daily; you may eventually notice your sugar cravings lessen.
12. Listen To Your Body
Another tip that experts recommend for food cravings is incorporatingintuitive eating. In this case, “allowing” yourself to eat what you want in moderation, the less-appealing addictive foods (with sugar) may be.
How Time of Day Affects Cravings
Research suggests that food cravings, such as sugar cravings, are more common in the latter part of the day, in the evening and afternoon.
Nighttime sugar cravingsmay also happen as your meals for the day are done, and your body starts to crave continued fuel as a survival mechanism.Knowing this information, you can adequately plan out your (non-sugar) snacks so that you’re not left craving sugar after dark.
Is It a Craving or Addiction?
Experts do not entirely agree on the differences between food cravings and potentialsugar addictions.
Research suggests that specific food cravings can be linked to various triggers, such as:
Some studies indicate that quitting sugar can prompt chemical changes in the brain that can result in physical and psychologicalsugar withdrawalsymptoms. However, sugar isn’t officially considered an addictive substance.
Consider the following support tips to help recondition sugar cravings for good:
When to Consult With a Dietitian
Craving sugar is fairly common but doesn’t necessarily suggest an underlying health issue. However, there are some situations in which checking with a registered dietitian or other healthcare provider can help you get the individualized food cravings assistance you need.
If you start to feel a total lack of control or extreme guilt due to sugar cravings, it may be a good idea to discuss with a healthcare provider for mental health support tactics.
In addition, people who are takingblood sugar medicationsor have diabetes and people who have a history ofdisordered eatingwould benefit from consulting with a healthcare provider before starting a sugar detox. This can help avoid any complications or unwanted side effects.
Summary
There are several reasons why you might be craving sugar. Fortunately, various tactics can be used to curb your sweet tooth. Consider tips like managing your stress, scheduling snacks, getting enough sleep, drinking enough water, exercising regularly, and more to help reduce added sugar.
Limiting excess sugar consumption can have multiple health benefits, including reducing the risk of certain chronic diseases. If it feels difficult to control your sugar cravings, ask a healthcare professional for assistance or a referral to a registered dietitian for support.
