I'm not sure about this.

Is it true ?

Does anybody drink coffee etc to curb food craving ?

  • Yeah, it works. Caffeine is a CNS stimulant. For most people, stimulants reduce appetite. Think of how skinny coke heads get. Granted, caffeine is a MUCH milder stimulant, but still a stimulant.

    I will often have a cup of coffee if I get food cravings, but I normally think that by the time I've made the coffee and taken 10 minutes to drink it, I've forgotten about whatever I wanted to eat.
