Lightbulb well, regarding the sweet cravings...

I just posted some papers on my EFA thread on Vitamin forum here and
there is a quote:
Quote:
lpha-linolenic acid deficiency decreases the perception of pleasure, by slightly altering the efficacy of sensory organs and by affecting certain cerebral structures. Age-related impairment of hearing, vision and smell is due to both decreased efficacy of the parts of the brain concerned and disorders of sensory receptors, particularly of the inner ear or retina. For example, a given level of perception of a sweet taste requires a larger quantity of sugar in subjects with alpha-linolenic acid deficiency. In view of occidental eating habits, as omega-6 fatty acid deficiency has never been observed, its impact on the brain has not been studied.
Alpha linolenic acid is in flax oil.

Taste is rather subjective, and as we age taste buds die off.

I'll look into the link you gave in your post.

Thanks much.

P.S. After eating the chicken, the carrots, the potatoes, he just had a protein shake, a banana and some some yogurt.
