It is natural for us to crave for sweets after a meal .According to experts apparently this urge or craving for sweets arises because of a hormone present in our bodies by the name of 'Seretonin' that gets released after we eat and our stomach gets full !
However, for most people no meal is really complete without eating dessert - fruits ,pastries , chocolates or sweets. ..
Personally, I have a sweet tooth and like to eat some sweets or fruits or at least a piece of jaggery or sugar candy after meals...

Yes people from olden times use sweets, in our area Jaggery particularly. They make it with mixing different dry fruits especially for eating after meals. However people have no time these days so go for ready made sweets. Now Chocolate seems to be the new trend- Kuch Meetha ho Jaye?

I thought this was after the meals program only, otherwise as you must be knowing for sure we have thousands of different varieties in sweets.
I like to have sweets, but not always..
If you are habitual of craving sweets after meals, please reduce your carbohydrate intake.
because experts say
"
The excess insulin released after consuming carbohydrates will cause the carbohydrates to be stored as fat instead of metabolized in the body. "

Eating sweets after a meal is a practice followed by all cultures and it is now the done thing to have a sweet dish and/or fruits after a meal . In India we also have the practice of having paan or paan masala after the meal which is like a mouth freshener. Nowadays you get even chocolates with paan flavor, and some of them are good !
