Afternoon Cravings: Breathe Past Them

Categories: Diet & Weight Loss

Zoning out at your desk? FitSugar suggests aromatherapy to pull you out of that afternoon slump. Get up, stretch and take the cap off rosemary or peppermint oil and breathe in a refreshing pick-me-up.

Oranges might work well for a crave, too. Citrus scents are mood-lifters, so toss a couple oranges in that cubicle fridge. In the end, aromatherapy beats wandering down to the coffee shop for a tempting calorie-filled latte and fresh-baked raspberry bar. C'mon, you're going to eat dinner in two hours. Breathe in, slim down.

Here are more reasons peppermint is a real cravings fighter.
