14 DAY TRIAL // Losing weight can be quite a challenging endeavor, which is why we can surely use whatever extra help we get. Whether it’s power bars, energy drinks or hunger suppressing concoctions, the range of possibilities in terms of allies is wide. The Aroma Patch, which has been around for a couple of years now, is also said to be a viable alternative to all the above.
Before shrugging it off, the makers of this product say there is real science backing up. Similarly with the nicotine patches that help smokers kick their habit, this patch acts by curbing cravings by means of smell. This means that it does not release any substance into the skin, but uses smell as a constant “reminder to eat more sensibly.” The patch itself is applied on the wrist and is small enough to look good (just in case fashion is also among our main concerns, which it probably is), and constantly sends off a smell that is supposed to prevent us from craving certain foods, like chocolate, junk food, or whatever else does the trick for us.
The aromatherapy patch is FDA approved, and completely focused on the health of the slimmer since it makes sure no chemicals are absorbed into the skin. Moreover, at $19 a box, the Aroma Patch is also presumably cheaper than many other weight loss products available on the market. To make the offer even more irresistible, manufacturers also point out that this aromatherapy patch can come extremely in handy when trying to lose weight without changing anything about our current lifestyle at all. It has no side effects, imposes no restrictions and, what’s even better, works as promised, it is being said on the official website of the product.
“The aroma of certain foods, such as sweets and chocolate can stimulate a powerful desire, even craving. By forming an association between a specific smell and a desire to manage your food intake, you can learn to eat healthy foods and gain control of your weight. Aroma Patches are the new health scent-sation just released on the American market. Using the highest quality essential oils available, the Aroma Patches were created to promote health and wellness without any side-effects as is the case with many diet patches. Aroma Patches work through the sense of smell and are totally safe and natural. Enjoy the natural benefits of Aromatherapy the healthy, simple, fun way!” reads the description of the Aroma Patch on the aforementioned page.
Still, some reviewers who have tried it state that, while it does smell deliciously, the patch fails to curb cravings to the extent it says it does.
