Does Hoodia work as an appetite suppressant, what evidence is there?

For thousands of years the Bushmen of South Africa having been eating Hoodia Gordonii to fight off hunger during their week long hunting trips. For the Bushmen there is no question that Hoodia as an appetite suppressant does work - it is a simple fact of life. In this sense there is thousands of years of real world evidence that eating Hoodia does work to suppress your appettite. Is there any more evidence? Yes. In 2001 a pharmaceutical company called Phytopharm completed a placebo-controlled clinical study of overweight, but otherwise healthy volunteers using the P57 extract from Hoodia gordonii. The participants were split into two groups, one group received the P57 and the other received a placebo. Both groups were told to continue their normal diet and exercise. The results were as follows: The P57 group had a statistically significant reduction in body fat. They didnt have any side effects They also had a significant reduction in caloric intake. On average the P57 group ate about 1,000 calories a day less than those in the control group. To put that in perspective, the average American man consumes about 2,600 calories a day; a woman about 1,900 Were there any side effects from taking Hoodia reported? There have not been any side effects reported from eating Hoodia. How can P57 the active molecule of Hoodia really suppress appetite to such a great extent? I hear about diet pills all the time - what make Hoodia diet pills different? Most diet pills and supplements work by trying to increase the rate at which our body burns fat. What makes Hoodia supplements so different is they really work to prevent weight gain. Losing weight is actually a simple equation. Take in less calories than you burn and you will lose weight. It is really simple math, you can not gain weight if you consume less calories than you burn. Hoodia gives you a powerful weapon to fight hunger and therefore take in less calories. No need to run the body hotter or faster or harder, simply you consume less calories and therefore lose weight. For more information visit: http://www.hoodiagordoniiplus.com/?aid=229144
