I think my microbiome decides that. I'm following my cravings (all but sugar) for 2-3 years now and it's going great.

When grocery shopping, I get those "oooh, I NEED that" urges when looking at certain veggies, fruit, meats, dairy products, breads/rice/groats and even spices. It's all changing over time but mostly with seasons.

In addition, I eat fermented stuff daily and supplement different probiotics: Saccharomyces boulardii in the morning, Lactobacillus helveticus, Lactobacillus rhamnosus and Bifidobacterium longum in the evening. Fermented stuff is a craving but supplements are researched. I also have ADHD.

I'm on 17:7 intermittent fasting with addition of ~41h fast every couple of weeks.
