More facts about Wellness Code® Appetite Control Bar

This isn’t your typical snack bar, packed with sugar and empty calories. It’s made with a unique, clinically-studied spinach extract that has been shown to reduce cravings — especially for sweet and salty foods. But don’t worry: it doesn’t taste like spinach at all! So leave the vending machines alone: our Wellness Code® Appetite Control Bar is the perfect guilt-free snack for you!

Appethyl® thylakoid-enriched extract

Raw spinach contains compounds called thylakoids. These compounds bind to dietary fats and delay the emptying of stomach contents into your lower digestive system. This in turn triggers appetite-suppressing hormones. These hormones promote satiety and reduce your urge to snack.

But thylakoids are usually found between the indigestible walls of plant cells. So our Appetite Control bar contains a unique, thylakoid enriched extract derived from spinach to make these compounds more bioavailable (and makes the bar much tastier than raw spinach).

Clinically studied to help resist munching

By promoting satiety, inhibiting hunger, and giving your stomach’s hormones time to work, our Appetite Control bar helps you resist cravings and stick to a healthy diet.

Clinical studies are promising: in a double-blind, placebo controlled study, 22 women took a single dose of 5 grams of Appethyl® extract in the morning, along with a healthy breakfast. Compared to placebo, Appethyl® reduced cravings for all snacks and sweets during the day by 36%; for sweet and fat snacks, also by 36%; and for salty snacks by 30%. Feelings of fullness were increased by 14%, and hunger was reduced by 21%. 

In other studies, Appethyl® taken with meals or snacks reduced hunger and food cravings as compared to controls.
