From my personal experience, if you cut out sugar pretty much entirely, eat minimal carbs, and give your digestive system atleast 14 hours rest between dinner and breakfast, you will be amazed how quickly your health turns around (not to mention weight loss).
Why this is hidden in plainsight beats me. I watched my wife do this for 6 months before I even started because I was that skeptical. And once I started, it was so easy. The daily fasting really kicks your body off of sugar dependance, reduces insulin, and next thing you know you dont even crave sugar. And if you keep it up, you are actually turned off by the same sweet stuff you always liked.
yeah I'm same, giving up bread and pasta was no big deal once circadian rhythms were fixed.
Eat a big protein/fat breakfast as close to waking up as you can, ideally eat outside around or after sunrise.
Get in full spectrum sun daily
Get it much much closer to natural dark conditions after the sun goes down,
Keep off the bright screens / tech after hours as well.
All of this directly impacts cravings. What needs to happen is the leptin receptor needs to accurately assess the leptin amounts in the body, and this drives appetites. Leptin is found in high amounts in subcutaneous fat under the skin, so getting skin in sunlight resensitizes this hormone's function.
This is why indigenous or natural lifestyle expats that live down in the subtropics/tropics/equator do not get fat and lethargic. Even if they keep eating rice and other grains... because the UV sunlight is the hormone and energy utilization conductor for the body.
