Why do humans crave something sweet when they eat something savory or salty?
In: Biology
It’s about nutritional balance. We don’t have the ability to make a lot of the various vitamins and what not our bodies need to operate. To offset this we need a much higher variety of foods than other animals. Cows can live off just grass because they can produce what they need and don’t get from grass. When you eat food that is high in salt your body craves sugar to offset the to create a more balanced nutritional intake.
