5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful reference tool!!, October 2, 1999

By A Customer

I've read Doreen Virtue's book, "Constant Craving" which has all of the scientific data on food cravings (note to the reader from France who complained). This A-Z book contains the invaluable chart of food craving metaphysical meanings, and it is a handy way to reference those cravings. It is uncanny how accurate these emotional meanings are!

Again, if you want the full scientific studies on food cravings, buy the paperback version of "Constant Cravings." But if you want a handy-dandy desk reference that will help you squelch those annoying food cravings, this is the book for you!

4.0 out of 5 stars I couldn't agree with you more, (), April 17, 2000

By	MeltNyourMouth (California, USA) - See all my reviews

() Forget MJ, forget coke, forget crack, forget even ALCOHOL AND CIG'S, the most overused and overABUSED substance in the country (perhaps even the WORLD) is FOOD....More often than not,food is exploited as a drug if you really think about it.It is NOT meant to substitute emotion or love, and it is MOST CERTAINLY not designated as some wonder drug that gives you an instant "high"...Food is meant as fuel to a person as gas is to a vehicle. This is something the book has allowed me to realize. It has also helped me realized that we have been conditioned most our lives by society to signify/express our emotions even social habits via food and that's one nasty habit....I have now broken free from the cycle of emotional eating thanks to this book...And know that if ever I "crave" a certain food, it's really an EMOTION INSIDE OF ME that needs "feeding". And that yes it IS possible to outlet your emotions WITHOUT having to resort to eating your way out of your bad feelings. Life is WAY too short to spend time thinking about what you're HUNGRY FOR. These are things that the book has opened my mind to discover....And if you too accept the book's offerings with an open mind, it could very well benefit you as it has myself.

5.0 out of 5 stars Reduce or Eliminate Unmanageable Food Cravings, August 8, 1999

By A Customer

If you're frustrated by unmanageable food cravings, this is the book that can finally help you reduce or eliminate them! Each food you crave actually corresponds to a specific emotional concern, such as a desire for love, fun, financial security or forgiveness.

The book's comprehensive A-Z list shows you how to interpret & resolve your cravings for chocolate, potato chips, cheeseburgers, bread, french fries, ice cream & many other foods. Author Doreen Virtue reveals that you needn't kill your appetite with diets, powders & pills that never work - instead, you can heal your appetite with her unique internal approach.
