I get cravings for steak or any red meat ALL THE TIME.

I'm not vegetarian so this isn't a problem for me but I just don't know why. I aim for 100 grams protein everyday so it's not like I am lacking.

Any idea's? Do you get the same thing?

    Perhaps eating foods higher in iron??

    Hmm nice suggestion, I had to google Iron rich foods to check..

    I eat 1-2 eggs everyday and always loads of veggies on my dinner plate.

    Whats RDI for iron?

    I'd have to google it too, but from personal experience, when I crave lots of red meat, I'm usually low on iron. :)
