Salt!

Yes I was thinking of crisps. Some, good quality hand fried crisps.

I used to snack on crisps quite often but since doing the 5/2 diet I find I snack a lot less than I did. I miss a good pack of crisps.
Take care Alie indulge your self.

Salt licks all round?

Hmm...perhaps they should provide salt mineral blocks for humans on the NHS?

I just eat a bit of salt on its own sometimes, as I have low blood pressure too. That cuts out the crisps bit sometimes.

I have low blood pressure and often crave salt, sometimes wonder if it's linked.

Perhaps it's anaemia?

and infectious- I have also been infected by chocolate cravings and wine- are we being invaded by aliens?

Chocolate is addictive. I could put myself forward for a trial to prove this.

My body keeps telling me I need chocolate. I always listen to it.

A bag of crisps should make a difference, Ali, unless it's the low salt variety. Listen to your body.

Go for it then, alie. It's your body telling you what you need.
