From Atkins Nutritionals: Home

For sugar cravings: 500 mg to 1,000 mg of L-glutamine before meals and/or when cravings are greatest.
For hunger not assuaged by being in lipolysis: 500 mg of L-phenylalanine or 500 mg of N-acetyl-L-tyrosine before meals.
Chromium

Karen, are there any side effects to those vitamins? I ahve been considering them, but wasn't sure...

I've only heard about possible side effects with chromium. I've used l-glutamine for muscle soreness after workouts and it does have the added bonus of calming cravings. And I've used the others for rebalancing brain chemistry. They're all amino acids. :)
