Hoodia Gordinii > Hoodia Gordonii - More about it

The effects of hoodia on the central nervous system exhibit powerful potential for weight control, where behavior modification can reduce calorie intake. The San Bushmen report an energizing effect of hoodia, and they have used the plant during their strenuous hunting expeditions.

In South Africa, the hoodia plant is processed most often by sun-drying the plant to produce powder or concentrates. These substances can be used as dietary supplement ingredients or perhaps as food ingredients.

Properly formulated hoodia supplements appear to alter the body function of appetite control in a manner that affords great promise for the “new, healthy diet revolution.” Hoodia may be ideal for use in combination with other supplements that can benefit weight control, such as green tea polyphenols and chromium compounds.

While more research may be required to fully understand hoodia’s mechanism of action in weight control, there appears to be mounting open-label experience of its use as a dietary supplement to suppress appetite, control weight and provide minor energizing effects, without any content of stimulant substances.
