Personally, I take craving for red meat to mean that my body REALLY
wants/needs iron.  Usually I get a craving for steak or liver about a week
before my period.  This is probably nature's way of keeping me from getting
anaemic.  I thought about thawing out some more liver or steak for
tonight's dinner, but the thought was absolutely unappealing to me, which
is probably an indication that I don't need any iron right now.

Meat isn't addictive, except in the sense that it's something your body
really needs!

I try to listen to my body.  I don't always obey its cravings, but at least
I listen!

Cheers,
Corbie
