I always kept a glass of orange juice with me the entire night and the whole day aftewards as I was coming down.

I've never tried heroin, so I'm not sure about the sugar cravings. I never craved sugary stuff when I was snorting coke or smoking crack. I did, however, chew a crapful of gum.

Here is what I found:

As mentioned above, sugar activates the brain’s pleasure center, which releases opioids that fuel a craving for more sugar. Recent studies on cravings and addiction show that heroin and morphine produce the same chemicals in the brain.
