Many people regularly experience sugar cravings. Health professionals believe that this is one of the main reasons it can be so hard to stick to a healthy diet. Cravings are driven by your brain's need for a "reward" - not your body's need for food. Those experiencing a sugar craving feel a strong urge to eat something sweet and can find it difficult to control themselves around food.

Join us for this special discussion on sugar cravings, why sugar is so powerful, and how we can break the habit.
