Tempting foods may build will power

wls
By ABC7
A new study in the Journal of Consumer Research suggests tempting foods may build willpower.

Tests on female college students found those who had access to some candy were able to successfully walk away.

The thought is that challenging yourself to resist temptation now will better prepare you to pass up future junk food temptations.

Researchers say banishing all goodies does not allow dieters to practice self control.
