The herb Gymnema sylvestre is supposed to help with cravings for sugar and it regulates blood sugar. It sounds like something that might help people that put on weight as a side effect of medications.
I take Seroquel, and it slows down my metabolism and makes me hold water and fat, maybe by throwing off my hormonal balance. I take several herbs to counteract that by draining water (diuretic action) and speeding up metabolism.
