Chocoholics, the answer to your prayers may be here - a way to enjoy chocolate without any of the calories.
A lipstick-shaped aerosol that sprays particles of dark chocolate into the mouth is being hailed as providing all the pleasure of the real thing but with no need to feel guilty.

David Edwards, a Harvard professor who invented the spray called Le Whif, says that it only takes a touch of chocolate to satisfy our tastebuds.
He said: 'When you breathe the chocolate into your mouth, it dissolves immediately and coats the tongue and taste buds.
'Le Whif is a new approach to eating, by breathing.
Le Whif comes in three different chocolate flavours: plain, raspberry and mint

They also point out that the smell of food usually heightens appetite, rather than suppressing it.
Louise Thomas, a chocolate consultant who runs tasting events, said that 'whiffing' would not confer the many health benefits associated with eating dark chocolate.
Prof Edwards, a biomedical engineer, has also developed a coffee Le Whif and is working with Michelin-starred French chef Thierry Marx to create new varieties, including aerosol spices, cheeses and liqueurs.

Aromatherapy is the practice of using volatile plant oils, including essential oils, for psychological and physical well-being.
Essential oils, the pure essence of a plant, have been found to provide both psychological and physical benefits when used correctly and safely. The Essential Oil Profiles area details over 90 essential oils. Absolutes, CO2s and Hydro-sols are also commonly utilized in aromatherapy. Although essential oils, CO2 extracts and absolutes are distilled by different methods, the term essential oil is sometimes used as a blanket term to include all natural, aromatic, volatile, plant oils including CO2s and absolutes.
