You're not really hungry, but you find yourself gazing into the refrigerator again! Here's why you should take 3000mg of Hoodia per day. Hoodia Gordonii is a columnar cactus that grown in very inhospitable areas. This plant has a high resistance to fungus and mould. The plant grows easily. The Hoodia gordonii grows is very tolerable of its environmental conditions. Hoodia is very rich in saponins- steroidal glycosides.
Scientists from the South African Council of Scientific and Industrial Research explain that Hoodia mimics the effect glucose has on the nervous components of the brain, thus curving appetite.
Hoodia, an appetite suppressant, is steroidal glycosides and may occur via the melanocortin-4 receptor (MCR-4). Steroidals are components of saponins, bioactive compounds that occur naturally in plants. Saponins are high in antioxidants, neuroprotective and anti-carcinogenic effects. Saponins from the radix and salacia reticulata have been shown to inhibit pancreatic lipase, producing weight reduction of fatty liver in lab animals. Research indicates that the steroidal glycosides in Hoodia reduce food intake by 40-50%. The organ that this component works on is the hypothalamus. The hypothalamus plays a huge role in the body weight and appetite control. Levels of glucose in the blood regulate the appetite. The higher your blood sugar the lower your appetite. Steroidal glycosides are a thousand times stronger than blood sugar.
Hoodia provides a state of alertness but without the jittery feeling produced by current stimulant weight loss products. Numerous clinical trials have all had positive results. Pfizer have spent $400 million dollars on the research of the chemical components of this plant. The steroidal glucosides are found in the species macrantha and ruschii and currari and several others.
P57 is a semi-synthetic variant of steroidal glycosides and all the active ingredients isolated from the Hoodia plant. P57 is the name of the active substance responsible for the appetite-curbing component of the Hoodia plant. P57 has been shown to decrease food intake, decrease body weight, prevents uptake of fat in the GI tract, decreases triglycerides.
According to Dr. Richard M. Goldfarb, Medical Director of Philadelphia research facility regarding Hoodia the test showed using a milled powder from the south Hoodia plant, confirms that Hoodia diet pills suppresses the appetite. 86% of Americans lost 20 pounds or more. |
