@mbersiam Well I have a craving for candy-specifically Necco wafers which doesn’t go well with my diabetes-does it really either satisfy or blunt your sweets craving. I also like a cookie for dessert after dinner. Would it help limit that also?
@Felton10 yes. It works to curb the cravings. And if you use the spray, sweets taste gross and it allows you a quick way to re-evaluate eating said sweets while the lozenges kick in.
@Felton10 I used it and tried to eat a rice crispy. I felt like I was eating corn flakes, no sugar or flavor at all. It has helped me to not snack on sweets as much.
Got this last time and my son, daughter and I all tried a piece of the the gum at the same time. (My husband was chicken).
The gum has a decent spearmint flavor that lasts like 10-15 seconds. Then it tastes really weird (I think because it must block the sugar taste right away?) You are supposed to chew it for 1-2 minutes, but I only made it to 1. My kids made it to 2. It didn’t taste ‘bad’…just odd.
Then we tried a variety of sweet things, and I was actually astounded that it worked! We tried skittles first, and there was just the essence of the fruity taste on the outer edges of our tongues, but not in the center. It was so freaking weird…like chewing unflavored wax or something. Then we tried a bite of cake and it was awful. Again…not because it made it taste ‘bad’ per say, but because it made it taste like nothing at all. It’s very hard to conceptualize eating something that your brain knows is tasty, but yet not taste it at all. The cake felt like crumbly sawdust. We did not expect that, and we were cracking up. Then I tried a pretzel stick and I could taste the salt, but it was still unappetizing. Just not nearly as unappetizing as the sweet stuff.
I wish I could explain it better, but in a nutshell…it works (I haven’t tried the spray or lozenges yet, but I assume they will work the same ). I don’t think you’d enjoy your after dinner cookie at all.
Someone mentioned in the last thread that the gum would be a good gag, and honestly…they kind of would be…if your friends have a good sense of humor. (I’m not saying I’d recommend it though…)
And someone else mentioned that maybe this worked like the nail biting stuff. It does not. It truly does not make anything taste bad…it just makes it literally taste like nothing…which is bad.
For me, it lasted about an hour or so before it began to lose its effectiveness. By 2 hours, everything tasted back to normal. But wow, what a trippy experience. I did not expect it to do what it did, and I would have to say it works pretty well! Obviously, it may vary from person to person, so take my review with the understanding that you could hate it.
I’m very tempted to buy it again just for the gum…
@Felton10@mbersiam
You’d mentioned those wafers before and I had them confused with these other cookie like delicious things. I think these are the best, even in the sugar free version. Diabetic approved!! They sell them in most grocery stores and Amazon has them too, in every flavor imaginable, ALL are delishious!! Strawberry, vanilla, chocolate, coconut and orange cream 1
@Felton10 I got these and they work exactly as @k4evryng says. In my case however - i have some crappy side effects from the lozenges.
I get nauseous and dizzy - possible side effects
Insane how it’s ANYTHING with sugar. I had fries and the ketchup tasted super salty. I guess since the sweetness was muted significantly.
Highly recommended - if it weren’t for the side effects in my case.
@Echenanci Wow…that is a bummer about your side effects! Was it only the lozenges? (Although I suppose the gum would do the same thing and wouldn’t be worth risking). Making you nauseous is certainly not the food deterrent you were looking for. Did you do more than 1 in a day, or did it happen after the first one? I only did 1 piece after dinner.
And I’ll have to try ketchup next time! It is insane, isn’t it? It’s hard to describe what it’s like to only really be able to identify texture versus taste. It’s like nothing I’ve ever experienced before.
I honestly can’t believe that some big company hasn’t figured out how to refine it to make it last a little longer. I guess it could be dangerous if it made people not want to eat anything for longer than a couple of hours (especially diabetics), but on the other hand it would be great for those (like me) that want to snack endlessly from 7 to midnight.
@JvB Some studies show it aids in weight loss, other studies showed no effect on weight loss. It does have some health benefits. https://tinyurl.com/yhuk74qc
@JvB If you’re nervous to try it, it isn’t that bad at all. I was nervous, but my kids tried it with me so it was fun. (See my experience with it on Felton10’s post if you’re interested)
Just be prepared to only feel texture, not taste, for sweet foods, which is very, very odd…
@mbersiam@Rissa13@SHOVAR accurate description… I’ve noticed some things it gives almost a very synthetic buttery (unpleasant butter taste too). It immediately turns me off of sweets because although you can smell it, the taste is just odd, completely unsatisfactory and I always immediately put whatever sweet I have down.
@SHOVAR the best way I can describe it is that it makes sweet foods taste like absolutely nothing at all. It’s a really strange sensation to just sense the texture of food on your tongue, but not taste.
It doesn’t impart an artificially bad taste, but when you remove the sweet flavor, it definitely makes eating sweets less than appetizing. It’s like your brain knows it should taste a certain way, but it doesn’t, which makes it yucky, lol!
I bought this last time out of curiosity. The spray was awkward and not very effective; only good for dulling sweetness, not removing it, and didn’t last long. I haven’t tried the lozenges. The gum is decent and the effect lasts for a while. It wasn’t mind blowing. Sweet stuff doesn’t taste bad, just weird, and slight sweetness is still perceived in a lot of stuff. Chewing the gum might help you decide not to grab a soda or whatever on the way to work, so I guess it does its job. (Soda was still pleasant, just not as good)
I’m skeptical of an ingesting an ingredient named Gymnema, since it’s kind of close to looking like enema. As someone with IBS, that’s not a good thing.
@zehnn question: Do you think different people would likely react differently to this stuff (like the PTC test)? Would some be tasters, and some not so much? When my kids and I tried it, my daughter didn’t seem like it affected her as much (although in all fairness, she’s 16 and contrary ). It got me wondering if there could be a genetic predisposition as to how well it works. Biology/genetics used to be my passion way back (I was going to be a Bio teacher, but Chemistry killed that dream ). I’ve since forgotten everything, but I still love this stuff.
@k4evryng@zehnn I was wondering what kind of experience a supertaster would have. I’m a supertaster with a big sweet tooth, so this stuff is intriguing.
@lisagd It is intriguing! This stuff fascinates me, lol!
@zehnn my daughter is taking AP Bio this coming year…maybe I should get an order of this for her teacher. I’m sure the kids would get a kick out of it!
And now that I see you feel it’s safe enough to give to your students, I’ll tell my college aged son that it’s probably safe for him to prank his friends with the gum.
@cinoclav lol! Now I totally have to try spraying it on something to see if it would work that way. I’m not sure it would coat the tongue enough to wok well, but the gum would definitely work as a gag. It tastes good enough at first for someone to chew it before realizing that it is the worst piece of gum ever and spitting it out. By then, the damage is done.
My 22 year old son (who tried it with me) wanted to play a joke on a few of his good friends at college. I think it would be hysterical to see their reaction, but I would be too worried that it could cause some weird side effect. I think it’s fairly safe, but I certainly wouldn’t want to make anyone sick. Then again…I’m a chicken when it comes to practical jokes.
For those in the future: I grabbed these out of sheer curiosity, but the effects were extremely minimal for me. Either I’m immune, or folks in reviews seem to really exaggerate what this does.
If you’ve ever brushed your teeth with a minty toothpaste, then sipped a cup of orange juice you’ve experienced the primary sensation.
@brettprofitt Agreed. Not worth it to me. I am wondering how much weight the mint is pulling. I have never been one able to eat after brushing my teeth for an hour or two. The product itself tastes terrible though. Like bad tasting toothpaste, reminds me of Sensodyne.
The lozenges made chocolate taste bad but the gum seemed to have no effect. Maybe chewing it did not concentrate it on your tongue?
Interestingly, Hot Tamales Fierce tasted better, like it enhanced the cinnamon flavor.
OK, so I got mine today, but why do you use it after meals? Wouldn’t it be better to use it before you eat so you don’t eat so much? I’m not much of a snacker. Did I just blow 19 bucks?

What a sweet deal!
What the hell?
This will go great with the 3 pack of Jelly Belly gummies I bought the other day on Side Deal.
Anyone buy any of this before-comments or complaints?
@Felton10 i bought it. It works as advertised. I like all 3 items. Let me know what questions you have.

Does buying these for me wife have the same outcome as getting her a gym membership?
@hchavers Is your couch comfy to sleep on?
@hchavers @sfwineguy
Do you have a nice roomy doghouse?
@hchavers @sfwineguy ROTFLMAO!
@hchavers Absolutely…Gymnema has Gym right in the name!
I bought this but haven’t tried it yet. “added benefit of Chromium”…???

What does it make stuff taste like? That. Is the question.
@SHOVAR cardboard maybe… it’s tough to describe, but gross.
@mbersiam @SHOVAR I definitely agree with the cardboard description.

@Oneroundrobb did you do the full 3 squirts over your whole tongue? It didn’t work great when i only used one spray then i read the directions lol
I’m skeptical of an ingesting an ingredient named Gymnema, since it’s kind of close to looking like enema. As someone with IBS, that’s not a good thing.
@heartny If you have severe IBS-Constipation type, an enema might not be a bad thing. Still not pleasant but better than ruptured bowels.
@KevinS10 I have the IBS-D type, so an enema would indeed be a bad thing.
I use gynnema Sylvestre tea in a taste and signaling lab for my AP Biology lab students. Sweet deal, even with the expiration date when it is.
