Your gut microbes play a direct role in what you crave. When harmful bacteria and yeast overgrow, they send chemical signals that interfere with hunger and fullness hormones (ghrelin and leptin), disrupt neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine, and drive blood sugar swings that push you toward more sugar and processed foods. This isn’t just weak willpower—it’s biology. By restoring balance in the gut, you reduce those false signals and finally regain control over your appetite.
