Hi Marion,I havent tried it but I believe its just to get rid of excess water.
If you retain water,then it could help.

Oh well, I thought it sounded too good lol
Thank's everyone.

There was a chewy thing called ayds/aids years ago. The idea was you had one with your drink and by the time you got through it you werent so hungry. abt 30 calories per sweet.
