Hoodia Extreme™ Information
Pure Hoodia Gordonii is the number one weight loss supplement in the world!!! Found deep in the Kalahari Desert, Hoodia Gordonii is a succulent plant that looks like a small cactus. This strangely-shaped little plant has many relatives throughout the desert, but only one variety, Hoodia Gordonii, is known to have an effect on appetite and weight loss. There are no known side-effects from Hoodia, which has been studied scientifically for over 30 years. Most recently, Phytopharm has invested millions in isolating Hoodia's active components.
For generations, the San Bushmen have eaten Hoodia to control both hunger and thirst as they roam the Kalahari Desert. They would consume the raw plant over long desert journeys, allowing them to eat and drink almost nothing for hours and days at a time. And for generations, only the San people knew of Hoodia's remarkable properties. However, in the 1930s, a Dutch anthropologist went to study these desert people and became aware of the Hoodia plant. He was immediately impressed and wrote about the plant in his observations of the San people. Still, it would take decades before any serious interest in Hoodia as a weight control supplement.
It was not until the beginning of the obesity epidemic in the 1960s that African governments began to research Hoodia in earnest. Since the 60s, rates of obesity throughout the world have skyrocketed to the point where, today, 60% of adult Americans are overweight and over 20% are obese. Since the 60s, many diet pills have come onto the market. Most of these pills contained stimulant drugs which carried serious health risks of their own, plus were often addictive. Some supplements, such as ephedra, had people risking heart attacks and death simply to lose weight.
Hoodia is a non-stimulant, non-addictive alternative for appetite control. After extensive research, a dried form of the plant has become available for the world supplement market. It is not a magical pill. It will not simply take the weight off for you, but it can give you the extra strength of will you need to take the weight off and to keep it off.
While there is still much to learn about Hoodia's chemical components and their effects on the human nervous system, no adverse reactions have so far been observed. Over generations of traditional use and decades of clinical study, there are no known incidences of harmful or adverse reactions. Regardless, it is not recommended to exceed the directed daily dose. Despite the fact that we have much to learn about Hoodia, its appetite suppressing properties are well-supported by both anecdotal and scientific evidence. Hoodia has also been widely reported to enhance alertness and overall mood. In addition, some anecdotal evidence suggests that it is an aphrodisiac, although no scientific studies have confirmed this. Extreme-Hoodia contains a full 800 mg per capsule of pure, certified South African Hoodia per serving.
What is Hoodia Gordonii?
Pure Hoodia Gordonii contains variable amounts of fiber, organic material, antioxidants and biologically active substances called sterol glycosides. This is our Extreme-Hoodia product - pure Hoodia Gordonii. Some, but NOT ALL EXTRACTS MAY WORK. The pharmaceutical industry is planning to make drugs out of the sterol glycoside components of Hoodia Gordonii but this is not consistent with the traditional use of the whole plant. Scientific evidence exists in animals and humans that Hoodia Gordonii may be an adjunct to weight control when used with calorie restriction and healthy lifestyle. Scientific studies exist on components of Hoodia Gordonii indicating that it has direct effects on the central nervous system. Molecules in Hoodia Gordonii may mimic the effects of glucose on nerve cells in the hypothalamus of the brain. Hoodia may fool the body into thinking that it is "satisfied" or "full". This may help curb appetite and calorie intake in the diet may be reduced. Hoodia does not contain dangerous stimulant molecules. Hoodia is a potential adjunct to behavior modification for weight control. Hoodia can be used with exercise and lifestyle changes for weight control. No serious or harmful side effects of Hoodia Gordonii have been reported. Its presence in the African food chain for many years provides a precedent of safety.
