Can you smell your way to weight loss?

Can the right smells help you lose weight? Some experts think so, touting aromatherapy as a great complement to your diet plan. Essential oils, they claim, can invigorate you to exercise, soothe emotional stress to stop a binge, and even can build confidence.

Here's a list of essential oils for beginners from the people at Ediets:
  • Bergamot
  • Chamomile
  • Citrus Oils
  • Eucalyptus
  • Geranium
  • Lavender
  • Patchouli
  • Peppermint
  • Rose
  • Rosemary
  • Tea Tree
  • Ylang, Ylang
Whether or not these oils will work or not, I can't say. But if you're healthy, trying to lose weight, and love an aroma filled home, they might just help you lose those stubborn last five pounds.
