6. Potato chips
Potato chips and their hot cousin, French fries, are two of the most commonly reported food cravings, but downing bags of the fatty junk foods may be a signal you’re low on healthy fats, says Taylor Newhouse, RD, of the Texas A&M School of Public Health. Of particular interest are omega-3’s.
Our bodies don’t manufacture the fatty acid, so to get our daily requirement we have to eat it in foods like salmon and other fatty fish. Or it may mean you need more healthy fats in general and you’re not getting enough foods like avocados, nuts, and olive oil.
