Should help some &..: Taking metamucil with 2 glasses of water about 1/2 hour before meals will create a sense of fullness so should reduce your appetite. What you eat is important too. See http://www.Drfuhrman.Com/library/what-is-a-nutritarian-diet.Aspx also see www.Huffingtonpost.Com/andrew-weil-md/carbohydrates-weight-loss_b_1937312.Html- & see the "discuss that" link in the article. Exercise is also important!
