I know it sounds strange. Maybe even a little gross.
But trust me, if you’re battling a carb craving, this trick can stop it in its tracks.
Next time you feel the urge to dive into that bag of chips…
…or you're eyeing that “innocent” little square of chocolate that never stops at one…
grab a salt packet.
Yes, really.
Just a tiny pinch right on your tongue.
It’s not about adding flavor. It’s about restoring balance.
When carb cravings hit, your body might not be low on discipline, it might be low on sodium.
That little pinch of salt gives your brain and body what they need to calm the storm.
No spirals. No guilt. No “what did I just do?”
I’ve used this trick more times than I can count.
It’s helped me skip pizza binges, pass by the popcorn, and walk away from the pantry without looking back.
Better than willpower. And it works fast.
If that sounds crazy, good. Try it anyway.
So carry a little salt with you. Keep one in the car, your pocket, or next to the couch.
Next time a craving sneaks up, use it. One pinch. A few seconds. Total reset.
