Has anyone tried Hoodia as a weight loss aid?



If you have used Hoodia as a weight loss aid, what were your experiences? Where did you purchase Hoodia?

I saw a news report on it that said you could be buying sawdust in a capsule, since Hoodia is completely unregulated by the FDA. It may be hard to know what your getting. It's always a good idea to see a trusted doctor, and let him or her put you on a diet.
It does not work.
the name alone sounds scary.. no i havent tried it
Check out this website, www.newstarget.com
There you will find out that Hoodia is a scam, I am serious!
I have tried Hoodia and it did not work for me. It was suppose to curb your appetite and help you lose body fat. I bought it at a health food store. Don't waste your money. It is a big LIE.......
Hi,

My wife and I take Dr. Bill's Choice Pure Hoodia and it works well for us. You should know that that Hoodia is simply an appetite suppressant. The action it has on your body will reduce your appetite but it will NOT completely take away your hunger. Two of the reasons it can't do this are:

1) It isn't a pharmaceutical drug -- these can be engineered so that all hunger signals are reduced or eliminated. In my opinion this isn't safe long-term but it can be helpful in certain medical situations.

2) Hoodia, while being accepted by your body as glucose, does not interfere with the neurotransmitter response that is controlled by your brain. That is, since your brain is fueled by 100% carbohydrate-derived glucose, if the level of glucose in your body drops too low, signals will be sent to encourage you to consume foods that will result in glucose uptake -- this is what you're probably experiencing as 'hunger' and it's a legitimate response.

I've been in health practice for a bit more than 20 years and I'm convinced that the Dr. Bill's Choice Pure Hoodia is one of the best available (I've tried about a dozen of them with the help of hundreds of my clients).

By the way, one of your readers suggested that if you visit 'newstarget.com' you'll find out that hoodia is a scam. The person who gave this answer should have actually read the articles. What the news articles stated, and which has been confirmed by more than one source, is that the particular company in question was scamming people -- not that the supplement hoodia itself was a scam.

Hoodia, as a dietary supplement, has been tested in placebo-controlled studies as well as in 'real life' situations. As long as you're taking enough of the substance (i.e., approximately 3 grams per day) and as long as it's standardized for potency (as Dr. Bill's Choice Pure Hoodia is), then it should work.

A question you need to keep in mind is this: How many calories are you taking in each day? This is important since your body requires a minimum of calories to function properly. The amount of calories you need can calculated by determining your BMR. It is very important to know how many calories your body needs prior to attempting to restrict your caloric intake.

Yes, it works! And... 90% of the Hoodia being sold is fake!

Read the report on this site (below). It's why I trust only Hoodia-Pure and this merchant.

Read the report, "Beware - Fake Hoodia is Everywhere."
