"I just couldn't stay away from Krispy Kreme donuts," said one research subject. "I used the Food Patch and now I'm satisfied with nonfat yogurt and an orange for breakfast."
Food Patches contain no drugs or herbs but instead contain the essences of foods and come in several varieties to fight the most common cravings that prevent weight loss:
- Chocolate Patch
- Pizza Patch
- Doritos - Fritos - Lays Patch
- Cakes and Donuts Patch
- Ice Cream and Milkshakes Patch
- Super Size Burger and Fries Patch
- Movie Popcorn with Real Butter Patch
- Beer Patch
"The Food Patch is just one more tool that can be used to help break the habit of over-indulging in high fat, high carb, high calorie food," said Dr. Bo Gus, the chief developer of the Diet Patch.
"The patch should be used along with a program of daily exercise and strengthening. I recommend all patients using the Diet Patch enlist in the Walk of Life Program at Walking.about.com."
Low Carb Versions
Advocates of low carb diets argue that satisfying a carbohydrate craving with a patch might prevent weight loss, and is unlikely to break the dieter of carb cravings. However, Atkins and South Beach Diet adherants are having a difficult time thinking of what low carb cravings might be satisfied with a patch. "While people sometimes crave a steak, they generally don't overindulge on it to the point of weight gain. And on our diets they are eating as much meat as they can afford, anyway," said Dr. Angus Ketosis of the Low Carb Institute.
