[How to quell the munchies

[Guest guest]

One of the traditional essential oils for suppressing appetite is fennel.

The Roman soldiers use to chew on fennel seed when they were on long marches

to quell hunger pangs. I have used fennel with some limited success to help

me keep those munchies under control. It is not a cure in itself but works

well with cutting down on carbs, etc.

Dexatrim and that type of drug works fine, but would rather use aroma

therapy if something is available.

 

What do some of you use? I love cinnamon (like in rolls, not hot tamales)

and have to fight to pass the donut place on the way to work.

 

Thanks for input.
