Before I get into it,the various places I looked at talked of carbohydrates which people get stuck on,wanting more and more,and chocolate. Chocolate one article says is "An anti-depressant which tastes like desert". It releases serotin and edamorphines which depressed people lack and need serotin especially to make contact between both sides of the brain. Chocolate is eaten by many,though I have no craving for it,besides,sweet food always sets me off for wanting more and its unsatisfying so I don't buy it.

But I love spices sp much that everything I eat I add red-hot chillie powder.

I got one idea from a movie where the woman opens a speciality chocolate store in Belgium (?) and she puts hot powder in the hot cocoa she makes for people.

I do that with Turkish coffee. Nothing I eat won't have loads of garlic,I eat raw onions,hot spices.

I had read that Tumeric is a definate anti-depressant .Its a main part of curry powder but its not spicy. I don't like the taste but eat some with chillie spices or chillie peppers.

Its known that hot spices like chillie raise blood pressure,heavier breathing and sweat. I sweat a lot from the meds so more doesn't matter.

Spicy foods get more serotin released and also endorphins. Gets the blood flowing.

Also eating spices on salads instead of oil save weight gain.

What do you like or crave as a foodstuff?: [file]

When I was a kid I loved those pretzels you make yourself and they have tons of salt on them. Too bad I can't have gluten haha
