    As far as I'm aware nothing! Just try to eat less sugar :) It's hard at first if you are used to having a lot of sugar, sugary drinks etc but if you cut down gradually, you will get there over time without cravings. If your sugar is from fruit I wouldn't worry about it too much, but any other sugars are not good.

    i am a sugar "junkie" :smooched: i have been trying the sugarless gum and that has been helping. i like the desserts gum and its only 5 calories a stick.....:bigsmile:
  • To stop my sugar cravings, I drink diet coke, or Pepsi Max. Know their full of other 'not-so-good' for you things - but it stops me reaching for the chocolate or biscuits!!
  • In order to stop the sugar cravings, you have to stop eating sugar. All it does is make you crave more. That's it's sole purpose.
