Beat your sweet tooth by tricking your tongue

Q: For months, I've been trying to beat my sweet tooth. But I just keep reaching for the ice cream and cookies at night. What can I do when willpower won't cut it?

Dr. Wright: The herb gymnema literally blocks your taste buds from recognizing sweet flavors. It starts working within a few minutes—take a bite of your favorite cookie, and it will taste like eating a wad of salt and flour. Try taking 4 grams in tablet form from two to three times a day. It works best when taken about 10 to 15 minutes before a meal.
