Uses of Hoodia
Hoodia products have been marketed worldwide for weight loss; however, there appears to be little quality control or protection of the endangered source plant.
Hoodia gordonii products
This comes from a cactus like plant that grows on the Kalahari Desert. It has been used for thousands of years by the San Bushmen during long journeys and hunts to curb the appetite. No side effects have been demonstrated to date.. Research has indicated that the appetite suppressant comes from a molecule called “P57”. This sends signals to the brain that you are full when you have eaten very little.
How does Hoodia Work
Appetite in the human body is controlled by the hypothalamus. Hoodia works by releasing a powerful compound very similar to glucose, however a lot more potent, sending a message to the hypothalamus that you are full and in turn suppressing your appetite.
There are various species of hoodia
but the Gordonii variation is the only one that contains the all-natural appetite suppressant. Tbis type of hoodia contains a molecule that has similar effects on nerve cells as glucose, and tricks the brain into the sensation of fullness. Results of human clinical trials in Britain suggest that hoodia may reduce the appetite by hundreds of calories a day or more
Dosage
Poorly documented clinical trials are reported to have proof of concept for weight loss, but scientific basis is lacking. There is no published research to support dosages of the herb.
