| Has anybody tried the desert burn hoodia??? Does it work? I have heard great things about it. Supposedly it make you feel full before you really are so you don't eat as much, therefore you eat less, and lose weight:)

| i've heard good things about this as well...just that it expands in you stomach to fill you up faster...supposedly it is natural and safe to use, but its expensive.

I have been taking Hoodia super slim for 3 months now ( as a test for the company) It does help with hunger but you have to wait about an hour for it to work by then I have usually eatin something. I did not loose that much weight with it but I did like that it cut my cravings

I haven't noticed any side effects at all!! And some people have said that it could take up to an hour to work and you have to take it for like 2 weeks before it starts to help. But for me it seems to work within just a few minutes. And it didn't take 2 weeks for me to notice a change in my appetite. It worked for me from day one!! I don't have any problems with it raising my blood pressure.

Hi Everyone...
Just stumbled across this forum so thought I would share my Hoodia experiences with you. I?óÔé¼Ôäóve tried a couple of different Hoodia brands over the last few months (like everyone I have been amazed by the hype surround this new miracle cactus!!). The worst I tried was Desert Burn. It sounds so incredible on their site but when I actually got down to taking it I started getting really bad stomach pains and a lot of wind! This put me off Hoodia for a while but then my friend suggested a new product called Hoodia SA Complex and I must say it is wonderful. I tentatively bought one bottle to start but after about ten days I really started to notice a difference and bought more. The delivery was super fast I didn?óÔé¼Ôäót have to wait around. I?óÔé¼Ôäóve been taking it for two months now and I?óÔé¼Ôäóve lost about 12lbs! It might not work for everyone but it has certainly worked for me. :D

I am currently on Hoodia Gordonii (which is the cactus plant from South Africa).
 AMAZING!!!!
Wow seriously this stuff works.
HOWEVER - You have to be "hoodia smart" before you go out and buy any bottle/box with the word hoodia on it. First thing you want to look at is the back of the box/bottle in the Nutrition Information and see exactly how many miligrams of Hoodia are in each pill. (not each serving) Some will say one serving is 2 pills which contain 300mg of hoodia. Basically screaming Wooo hooo BUY ME! Think again...Really each capsule only contains 150 mg. (see what I'm sayin?) SO my best advice to you is to read the miligrams before you buy. Because not only will you be saving money (cause they will REALLY work) but you won't have to take as much either. I don't like to be dependent on a drug for weightloss and end up having to take 6 pills a day to stay thin. I would rather keep it to a minimum. With Hoodia I only take one capsule in the morning before I leave for work so it hits by the time I arrive to work.
I personally would refer to all of you a hoodia pill that states the serving as ONE CAPSULE and that capsule alone should contain at least 300 mg - 500 mg. Anything over 500mg is insane - you probably will never eat again! haha kidding but seriously this stuff definitely works. Anything over 500 mg probably isn't bad it's just a lot for your body to take at first - that's up to you. I personally wouldn't go over 500 mg to start.
Hoodia Gordonii - It is all natural and doesn't contain any caffiene or anything that would make you jittery. It's as natural as green tea. The brand I buy is by that same brand that makes the Green Tea pills and the Grapefruit Diet. They come in 15 day supplies but that's if you take two a day. I only need one a day so that box lasts me 30 days. (money saver  ). If you were to go to eBay for example (cause I saw someone saying they aren't from the US and want to order the correct Hoodia off of eBay) just type in the search bar "Weight Control Hoodia" and it should pop up. It's a light green box with pale yellow writing. They have it in a bottle OR a 15-day supply box. If you're looking to try Hoodia but don't want to waste a bunch of money - TRY THIS! The 15 - day supply is only $5.99 at Shop Rite. that's actually where I am headed now! LOVE IT!!!!! Hope this helps!
OH and also you can literally type in any search engine(Yahoo!, Google, etc..) and type in Hoodia Gordonii. So you can research for yourselves the safety/health risk etc of this awesome all natural appetite suppressant. Enjoy!!!! Bye everyone!!!! :P

Be Very Careful With Hoodia.
The ACtive Ingredient in hoodia that tells your brain that you are not hungry is a Molecule called P57.
One Problem is that P57 and hoodia has been Patented. So Nobody can legally avertise Hoodia for Weight loss or say that it contains P57. Slim fast is the only company that can do this as they own the rights.
If you look at a bottle of Hoodia you will notice it will say nothing on the bottle about weight loss or P57.
and an additional problem with this is that it means anyone can actually sell Hoodia that does not contain any p57 and they can do it legally as they dont claim to have it.
Most of the Hoodia products that are available either do not contain any hoodia at all, dont contain all hoodia(has Filler) or they have hoodia that does not have P57 in it.
This Makes for finding a Hoodia supplement that truly works very difficult.
SlimFast is currently Testing Products that Contain Hoodia. If all goes well they will have the products on the shelves sometime in 2008. at that time they will be the only company that you can be assured has the real thing.
In The Meantime there is bound to be lawsuits regarding who can and cannot sell the product.
when itcomes to hoodia right now it is buyer beware. One site that supposedly tested a number of different brands found that only (I think) 5 brands contained 100% pure hoodia with P57.
MAny of these companies dont even realize that the product that they have is not any good....as it is the Source in Africa that is selling them "Damaged" goods.
IT has been estimated that there is actually More Hoodia for sale right now then what actually exists.

Just FYI on the hoodia; Wholefoods won't carry it yet because they require that a certain amount of testing be done on a product before they will carry it. This is from the girl who works in that isle at one of the DC stores, but she knew so much about vitamins, minerals and amino acids I would tend to trust her. She sounds like she has a degree in Biochem or something. I'm still interested, but I wanted to see if I could find out what you were talking about Piper, and make sure it's standardized. So far, no luck, but I'm taking something with hoodia in it now. When the whole US is thin, we'll know that there's a diet product out there that works really well!
Cheers,
Kit

Yeah! I loved Hoodia too.
I know there is a lot of fake Hoodia on the market, but mine seened to work okay.
-- Editor's Note --
Terri, it turns out that the site you referenced in this post (I removed the reference) stole it's content from another website. The fact that the site you referenced doesn't have contact information so that I can confirm this further leads me to believe that they are a suspect website.
This is a very sensitive point for me. My entire website has been stolen by someone in China, and the fake copy can be found on the web. The thief even used my About page text and changed my name to his!

Okay, so now I've had to research hoodia ad nauseum (which it cures btw). According to my data, none of which has been challenged and the only human in vivo study isn't cited correctly, hoodia will cause euphoria, act as an aphrodisiac, make you thin and no longer thirsty. You will be able to hunt and/or gather for extremely long periods of time if the translator they had for the bushmen/bushwomen is accurate.
Now, having said that, I just followed advice from someone a few lines up and bought the Hoodia SA because she said it worked for her and that was good enough for me. If you're looking for something that will REALLY make you thinner, happier, hornier, apeptic (as opposed to dyspeptic) and less thirsty, then I might wait for some more research to come out. Unless you're a rat in which case you're fine. The data are gathered and you will live a thinner life with no side effects (until they jab you in the brain and dissect your hypothalamus. That hurts; trust me- I'm in neurology. 
Still looking for the human study in Leicester England. I'll let you guys know if I find it. Nothing is validated until someone challenges the data with their own experiments however. If it can't be duplicated, it's not true. Keep that in mind for any research. Look also for the articles that may say the opposite of what you want to hear.
Cheers,
Kit

| I know all that! I mean - the articles that say something different from that is said in others... But then again - Life is a lethal thing. It ends lethally in 100% of cases. So what? We are all rats. Don`t you agree?

Oh heck yeah Teri! I'm taking the stuff! I guess that got buried a bunch of emails ago. I was taking something that had hoodia in it, although I have no idea what quantity, but since it didn't kill me, I bought the real stuff. Today is only day two on that and at 2:30 I just had to make myself eat my second meal for the day. I don't know how I'm going to get through two more. Just a bite of each I guess. I don't have any side effects either. If this does everything that it's supposed to I'm going to be a happy camper.

So far it's been almost a week on Hoodia SA and no bizarre side effects. I feel like a human trial for the stuff, but as long as I don't grow hair on my chest (I'm a girl...and SINGLE), then I'd have to say so far so good. I'd be really interested to know if anyone does have any side effects. It seems to be working.
I haven't been taking it in the evening because I'm still paranoid about not being able to sleep, but I think now that I am pretty convinced that's not a factor, I'm going to try one around 6:00 to take care of the late night munchies. I think that's just a bad habit. I don't feel hungry, but that's when I start looking in the fridge. Then I wind up talking myself out of it, drinking a gallon of water instead, and doing sprints all night to the bathroom, which keeps my calves very shapely. It's a regular barnyard at 4 a.m. when my calves and my cats are awake!  Sorry, it's Monday.

Thank you SO much for sharing your experience with us, please, keep us updated on your progress!
I have noticed that drinking water before going to bed keeps me awake as well. t`s not the pills it`s the water, if I don`t have it after 9pm, it`s just fine. I sleep all night long.

Seminakedcat- Could you please tell me exactly what brand hoodia you are using? Are you excercising as well? Do you have enough energy to excercise with the reduced calorie intake? Is it still working? Thanks for sharing your experience.

Phoebe, hi!
Sorry, I'm just getting this. I've been hopping around.
I am using Hoodia SA which is from herbalpills.co.uk. I got it because someone (I've looked it up and it's T-bone McLeod, not just "someone") posted here that this brand had worked for them. When I'm out, I'll probably do a big search on a bunch of sites to see what claims to be the best at the best rate. I think there's even a page where you can get that comparison information. I saw someone here pull it up once.
I'm a bad exerciser. Sometimes I even spell the word wrong; I'm not kidding. That and commitment, go figure. Anyway, I have just come off of two weeks of a diet and didn't loose weight which I'm figuring is part water from not keeping up with it, part I don't know because my pants are getting bigger, and mostly because diet and exercise go together and there's no avoiding it. So, as of yesterday, I'm getting off at a subway stop further from my house and with no bus line to my house (I'll cheat, seriously), and I am trying to walk as far up the subway escalator as I can without an asthma attack. I don't know if you've been to DC, but the escalators at most stops are about 3 stories deep, so walking up is HARD! I have the energy I deserve to have after being recalcitrant on the whole program for so long, but I plan on my energy level increasing daily as I exercise more.
I'm trying to remember to eat, and at least 4x/day. With the Hoodia, I'm just hoping to get full a little faster. I don't know how many calories I'm taking in a day, but it's not enough to spare more. I really just don't want to deviate from my diet, and I don't want to over eat. They say if you do something for what? 21 days? Something like that, it becomes a habit. I need to get in the habit of not overeating, exercising, and not giving into cravings for the good stuff like anything that ends in the word "...ocolate!", "*.*-mousse" or ".... ookie". Then I'll be alright!
Kit
PS-I just did spell check and I had spelled commitment wrong. See? And I edit at work!

Terii-I see a few post back you were feeling succesful with the hoodia. Is it still going well? Have you lost any weight? I am thinking about giving it a try to help curb some unhealthy urges but want some feedback from those who have given it a try. Any insight you have would be helpful. Thanks.

Hi Terri and Phoebe,
It's helped. It does curb my appetite. I think I described it in a previous post, but in a nutshell, yes. So far I'm loosing weight or pants sizes and my appetite is curbed. I also feel less thirsty. It has not made me either taller, or richer yet, but I'm still waiting for those results to pop through.

Hoodia sounds like a good thing, I would love to try it but can't because of breastfeeding. I'm actually planning to breastfeed for two years so I have a while until I can use it *sigh* :P
I love breastfeeding though, I'm in no hurry to stop, I just love making those tickers...

Hi Terii and Thin Girl,
Well, I don't know a thing about breast feeding other than it's supposed to help you with weightloss after pregnancy. At least that's what I've heard. In my world, it would be worth a shot (but their mothers keep pushing me out of the way and screaming). Okay, just kidding. I did hear that though.
Let me be the Guinnea pig Thin Girl and I'll let you know how it goes. If I'm still alive and intact by the time you're done you'll have all the evidence you need to go forward. I'm sure there will probably be at least 5 more "miracle cures" before then though, so a smart person might just wait until the rest of the world is thin and then use whatever they all used.
I think about that a lot. As soon as I look around, and I'm the biggest one in the whole room, then I'll do what everyone else is doing. But then I say naaaah, let's see what happens if we put this mystery substance in our mouths! I grew up in the '70s, it's just what we did really.

Hello everyone. I had read about Hoodia a few weeks ago and decided to order some. Today is my second day of taking them. I purchased off of ebay, the Hoodia Complex 500. It contains 500 mg for two pills. I have been taking two pills each morning. The instructions state to take 1-3 pills before breakfast lunch or dinner. Not to exceed 9 per day. I weighed in yesterday at 192 lbs. I am 5'7 and 23 years old. Right now I am not excersicing I would like to see what the pills do for one week by themself and then I am going to begin to excersice. I would like to know how long it has taken other people to lose with the pills. I am hoping to drop about 40 pounds by the beginning of Oct. (My hubby will return from deployment). If you have has great succes with Hoodia please let me know what you have been doing...excersicing, diet, water. Thanks so much.

I guess that depends on how much it supresses your appetite. If it Works for you then I would advise you keep track of what you are eating to make sure you are eating enough.
I have read that you may have to be taking it a few days for it to be noticeable if you dont notice the appetite change then increase your dosage.... If you still dont tnotice it then you may have got some of the bogus stuff and you may want to try a different brand.
I am hoping Slimfast gets their product to market sooner then expected! At least then we will know we have the right stuff!
Its times like this that you kind of wish the supplement industry was regulated by the fda or by somebody......then all the #%@&! stuff could be weeded out!
Some Advice Ihave for anybody Taking it and having success....be very carefull when you stop taking it...you will be in danger of getting your appetite back and starting to overeat and gain back what you lost. Make sure you are teaching yourself to also eat healthy while you are taking it...this will make it easier to control yourself afterwards.

pipermac and Phoebe,
I've been looking into hoodia for a few weeks now. I've found a company that sells a number of products manufactured by other companies and they lab test them for potency. I'm working on an arrangement with them and should be selling a really good hoodia product through them any day now. It will come with a guarantee, like every other product I recommend. Or I should say the very few products I recommend.
For five years I've been getting offers to sell all kinds of diet pills. This is the only one that has ever interested me, starting with seeing it on 60 Minutes.

Peter- Thanks, I saw that link last night and went ahead and ordered from them. I too will be happy to let you all know what my thoughts are on it. I am not trying to loose weigh (I did that a few years ago 142 to 114 and have maintained it for 3 years), but want help with binging urges. Thanks again.

Phoebe,
Google puts ads on my site and I have no control over them. As I look now, I see ads for two different hoodia products.
I'll be adding my link shortly.

I have been taking Efexxor for a while now and it actually helped alot with my appetite and cravings. So at this point I dont need anything like Hoodia. but since I was mainly being depressed about my weight that had my Dr Perscribe it to me I am not likely to take them much longer....after this bottle is done I am gonn ask my Dr to start tapering me off it. So if my Hunger and cravings Come back big time once that happens then I will proably be Trying Hoodia! :) But I would prefer to be able to control myself without having to take anything.

pipermac, wouldn't we all!
I should perhaps explain that I will never have the need to try hoodia myself, though I am ordering some for my best friend who's excited to try it.
As I have explained elsewhere in the forums, I messed myself up so severely with my eating disorder that for many, many years now I rarely feel hungry. If I haven't eaten for awhile and pass some wonderful aroma, it's actually exciting to feel hunger as this only happens a couple times a year!
People will read this and think it's a blessing. But the other side of the coin is that sometimes I have to practically force myself to eat.
And lastly, I'm only talking about eating healthy food. My old eating disorder thoughts can come back at any time, causing me to want to eat junk food as comfort food. Hunger has nothing to do with it.

There just MUST be all type n nfo on Hoodia here:
-- Editor's Note --
Terri, it turns out that the site you referenced in this post (I removed the reference) stole it's content from another website. The fact that the site you referenced doesn't have contact information so that I can confirm this further leads me to believe that they are a suspect website.
This is a very sensitive point for me. My entire website has been stolen by someone in China, and the fake copy can be found on the web. The thief even used my About page text and changed my name to his!

Terii, that reminds me... I should have commented.
The biggest problem with hoodia is all the misinformation! It's easy to find everywhere.
I don't know about the site you posted either way, but I know you will find excellent information by following my Weight Loss Products link:
http://www.thelegacywebsite.com/products.html
That's actually how I found the company... looking for good information!

Peter-
Is the link that you have posted to the Hoodia site the one that you recommend and mention in an earlier post? Because it is the same one that is advertising at the top of the page.
Thanks.

Phoebe,
The Google ads on my pages are selected by Google to match the content of the page. So in this forum they will often be about hoodia, but can be by any site advertising hoodia. The site I recommend you read is hoodia-advice.org which my Weight Loss Products link, below, takes you to.
If you choose to buy the product they recommend (and have lab tested themselves), I'll get a commission (which won't cost you more) if you go to their site via my link.
Thanks for asking... this supports the operation costs of my free website.
Peter

okay.. heres what i dont understand... On the forum and everywhere else for that matter you read about metabolism and how it can be slowed by not eating enough .. and how we are meant to eat about five small meals a day .. keeping up at least 1200 calories per day. NOW.. how can you make sure you are doing all that and eating 5 meals a day if you are suppressing your hunger?????
Whats the difference between someone taking a diet pill to suppress their hunger feeling and someone not eating enough through out the day? And what happens when you stop taking the hunger suppressant and go back to normal eating?
Am just wondering is all.. i mean i understand how they work.. i just dont understand how it can benefit you in the long run is all..

| I over-eat because of various reasons, this product sounds great for those of us who don't know when to say "No more." I'm not sure if it works or how it affects you once you are no longer using it, but it is used in the hopes (I think) that it will help you stick to your diet, not starve yourself. You can still eat five meals a day and 1200 calories on it, it just makes it easier to feel full. Once you are no longer using it hopefully you've learned better eating habits and know how to portion food better.
