"Jacqueline Davidson" wrote in message... How do you use this stuff to fight cravings? Jackie Glutamine is an amino acid found in protein rich foods. It is the substance responsible for the 5th taste (sweet, sour, salty, and bitter being the "original" four), which the Japanese call umami. Glutamine makes things taste better, or makes the eater think that things taste better. If things taste better your appetite becomes much more easily satisfied. Glutamine also acts as an anti-catabolic agent - it helps prevent your body from burning protein for energy. At least, that's what I get out of all the information out there. Bryan

@lakeread06: How do you use this stuff to fight cravings? Jackie I have taken it in capsule form 500 mg/day twice, and that cut cravings out. I now bought a big container of the powder (the store I was at was out of the pills) and I put 1/4 or less tsp in 33 oz of water, for the morning and another 1/4 of a tsp in another 33 oz of water for the afternoon. Gotta say it kills all cravings for me. I haven't had one for anthing sweet since I started Atkins. As for craving Mexican/spicy food once a month, (for TOM) well, that craving will NEVER die  ~Carrie 185(?) or 190(?)/140/130 or sz 7, which ever comes first! LCing since 11/2002
