Hoodia Gordinii

Has anyone heard about Hoodia Gordinii or used it? I am interested in finding out about this new product.

Wow I am surprised no one responded to this person. I have been on a roller coater ride for the last week trying to find something that would work for me. Lipovarin had all the potential, but after taking it I realized the caffeine would not agree with me for medical reasons. Ultimately what my main problem is is snacking. I have not found anything yet to control my insatiable appetite. In fact, my husband's pet name for me since high school has always been "greedy monster". Cute, huh...well, I started on Hoodia yesterday and I tell ya what, so far it is looking like a miracle for me. I am a very skeptical person, so it takes me a while to be a full believer, but no doubt this stuff works. I just need to see if it will continue over the weeks. I've lost 6 ounces since yesterday. We'll see...

Here is some info on hoodia:

Hope it helps.

Thanks!!!

I came across this article and couldn't believe what I was reading. I won't do the article justice if I try to summarize it. You have to read about this counterfeit scam. newstarget.com/006016.html

some things about hoodia.

you have to make sure the company made it from the inside of the cactus, the meat part, not the spikes, bark or flowers. you can email companies to find out.

then, you have to take the right dosage. for some 800mg-1500mg a day works. but most only notice effects from 3000mg and up to maybe 6000mg a day. I start taking this soon and will post my results to this thread.

Yuna,
It would be very interesting to keep track and share with us your results with Hoodia.
I've understood that a big part of success comes from buying a quality Hoodia extract.

Good luck and keep us posted.

I read that the govts in Africa are trying to protect the plant and that it is virtually impossible to get the real thing anymore, but that if you could, it works. I also heard that some pharm co already has the rights to sythesizing the active ingredient, but given time for clinical trials etc it won't be out for a few years. Anyone have any info about this?

i've been taking hoodiaxr for 6 days and i think it's working very lightly. It's helping me to stay at 1200 calories a day and one day was 600 calories. but i think i could've done that on my own because before taking hoodia i switched to a raw diet and ate 600 calories a day for 2 days. then it seemed the hoodia made me eat more except for one 600 calorie day. but it's better than having higher than 1200 calories days like i used to have. but the difference is so slight it's barely noticeable.i've taken 3000-4000 mg. a day of hoodiaxr. i have to take it for 10 days before i can get a refund. i've been eating whole fruits and vegetables and raw nut/seeds. they say hoodia doesn't work with a high carbohydrate diet but i thought fruits was low glycemic index so it would work. I'll keep taking it all month. some people said it really kicked in in 3 weeks. and i'm already taking a large dose each day. we'll see. i'll report back.

at least with the hoodia i have no side effects. i feel great!

i think the hoodia works very slightly. after i went off it i ater more for 2 days then i ate even less without it. i don't think it's worth it. but it does work slightly so maybe that's enough for some people. there's no side effects. i'd rather take a food than a chemical. but i'm doing more than fine on my own with a diet plan that i created. so i'll post again when i've finished losing all the weight without weight loss pills.
