    Default Your thoughts on Hoodia Gordonii Plus

    Hi,

    My sister has decided to start taking Hoodia Gordonii Plus.

    I have done some research on it and it seems pretty safe and effective as an appetite suppressant.

    I wondered if any of you have tried it or have friends who have?

    Thoughts?

    I read that much of what is sold here as Hoodia is not the real thing or has so much else added to it that it is useless. So go with a reputable source!

    Never saw anyone talk about it so don't know about safety, side effects or anything like that.

    I used it for awhile, no side effects but it didn't do anything for appetite suppression. Maybe I had a brand that wasn't effective, but I only tried it for a week.

    To be honest, the best way to lose weight is eating raw.
    It's more than just being raw, it's about healing the planet. ::)

    From what I read, Gordonii Plus is the real thing. I haven't heard anything about side effects and the ingredients are all natural... I guess we'll see.

    Thanks!

    The wikipedia article on it is well cited:

    In my experience, proper nutrition and regular exercise are the best appetite regulators!

    I also tried it with no effects. There was no decrease in appetite for me ~ not even a placebo effect. I found raw to be much more effective.
