Amazon has come up with a new gadget that may help you if you are struggling in the diet department. It’s called Pavlov and it basically shocks you into eating better.

According to the inventor Maneesh Sethi, while it isn’t as powerful as a shock from a taser, it still delivers enough voltage to shock you make you jump. The bracelet that delivers a 350-volt electric shock every time you commit your bad habit. It should last you a while before recharging because it carries 150 shocks per charge.

Sethi told ABC News: ‘It feels like if you were to touch a doorknob after rubbing your socks on the carpet. There’s real power in using a little bit of pain to help you break your bad habits.’

According to TheDailyMail.com, the device can also be used with an app that appoints your friends as digital guardians, able to shock you if you break the rules.
