How Hoodia Works
Copyright 2006 Alvin Toh
Hoodia has been used by the San people of Southern Africa as an appetite suppressant and cure for indigestion for ages. The San have used Hoodia for centuries to combat hunger on long trips in the desert.
Hoodia is a cactus, and the San would cut a piece of the plant and eat it fresh.
Hoodia is native to a narrow region of Namibia, on the edge of the Kalahari Desert.
Hoodia acts as an appetite suppressant. Appetite suppressants are drugs that reduce the desire to eat.
They can be used in the treatment of obesity.
Some appetite suppressants are only available with a prescription, while others are available over the counter.
They contain a variety of active ingredients, and work in different ways. The majority of appetite suppressants are stimulants.
However, unlike other appetite suppressants, Hoodia is not a stimulant. It seems to have no other effect than to suppress appetite...

Top 10 Ways to Fail Miserably At Losing Weight
Americans are getting fatter.
I hate to be the one to put it so bluntly, but the scales don't lie.
65% of adult Americans are either overweight or obese.
25% of Americans are obese.
Now for the bad news - things are only getting worse.
In 1991, only four states had obesity rates of 15 to 19 percent and none had obesity rates greater than 20 percent.
By the year 2000, all of the 50 states had obesity rates of 15 percent or greater, with 35 of the 50 states having obesity rates as high as 20 percent or greater.
In 2005, obesity rates increased in 49 out of 50 States (congratulations to Oregon for bucking the trend).
The Trust for America's Health is projecting that by 2008 a staggering 73% of US adults could be overweight or obese. The trend is clear - we are all getting fatter by the day.
With the rise of the Internet and our new information on demand society you can hardly sneeze without hitting...

(ContentDesk) April 12, 2006 -- Losing weight and keeping the weight off has forced people to try questionable practices, according to a report by Melinda Murphy from the CBS Early Show.

Hoodia Heaven
As a certified gym rat, I'm constantly talking to different people about supplements, weight loss products, and diet foods.
If it's out there, I've heard of it and probably know someone who has tried it.
In the past few months, I've talked to more people about the weight loss supplement hoodia than any other product.
Here are some of the things people I know have said about hoodia...
"It works, there's no question of that.
I eat a lot less than I used to.
Sometimes I have to remind myself to eat because I don't crave food anymore like I used to.
That's a good thing since the foods I used to crave were also the foods that packed on the pounds."
- Brian J.
"I've been on it for two months, and I've taken three inches off my waist.
In comparison to ********* (an ephedra supplement - author), it's a lot better for me because I don't get the shakes all the time.
I feel normal, but...
