Just like Pavlov's dogs, we salivate when wehear, see or smell something we associate with food.
Even though we have not touched the food, our pancreas secretes insulin which lowers our blood sugar level, which makes us feel hungry.
Here are some tips to avoid the "See-Food" Trap
1. Move visible food
2. De-convenience tempting food
3. Clean out your cupboards and remove your mindless eating cues
4. Snack only at the table, or on a clean plate.
