The Hoodia resembles the cactus plant, although it is not from the cactus family. It grows up to one meter height and has a strong odor and a vibrant color. It is found in abundance in Namibia and Angola. Of late, it has become very popular in weight reduction and it also helps to control hunger pangs. Hoodia Gordoni is another species of Hoodia. It has become well-known because of its hunger suppressant properties. Hoodia has been used since quite a few years and is very popular in South Africa. It has been used by Africans for curing gastric problems. It has also been used by Africans for treating stomach upsets, stomach related problems, regulating bowel movement and also for controlling pangs of hunger. It has been tested in the laboratories and tests have reported that it has qualities to control hunger pangs. Pharmaceutical giant Pfizer has successfully established that to derive the ingredient from the plant, it has to be cleared of other poisonous ingredients. In spite of having the clearance from the FDA, it was released in the market only in the year 2002. it has also be concluded that the liver successfully disintegrates the product and hence Hoodia may not be as successful as people claim it to be.
Of late, it has been advertised and promoted as a supplement. Anna Nicole Smith has also made the Trim Spa product quite attractive and popular by advertising about it. Many companies are selling their products claiming them to be Hoodia supplements. The FDA also has filed complaints against Trim spa. It has been clinically proved that Trim spa does not contain any Hoodia ingredients and the company’s claim is false. The Company is also trying to market its brand under the pretext that the medicines contain Hoodia properties. This is how innocent people are fooled.
Under the disguise of Hoodia, many companies are trying to market their products. This is enough messages to customers to be careful and cautious before buying these Hoodia based products. Please double check before your buy such products. Confirm its efficacy, safety and genuinity. In case you genuinely want to try out Hoodia supplements, make sure the product has been scientifically proved as safe and given a clean chit by FDA. Again, we would like to mention that it is better if you consult your doctor or family physician before going in for weight loss supplements like Hoodia. Your doctor would be the best advisor and you could blindly trust him. It is better to make doubly sure from the doctor and get a clean chit from the doctor before you end up messing your life and getting into health related problems.
