hoodia gordina

hey guys for anyone who wants to lose weight but eats alot like me i have been trying hoodia gordina its an african plant and the bushmen take when they go hunting and cant eat for days on end they take this plant it is fab i really love my food and eat alot sometimes out of boredom but this really tricks your brain into thinking your stomach is full and its all natural which is even better u really do totally stop thinking about food it can reduce your appetite up to 2000 calories a day that is so cool as i am trying to lose 40bls this and excercise i really think will help me do it anyone else who has tried it feel free to post your views i really want to hear other peoples thoughts on this apparently terri hatcher takes it although i do not want to get thin like her eww!!

How much does trimspa cost by the way? because they sell just bulk hoodia gordinii alone for like 35 bucks for a little over a months worth. I guess it works better as you build it up in your system or something. There are some non responders though so it can be expensive if it doesnt even work.

trimspa cost varies depending on where u buy it and how much you buy. anywhere from 17.99 at walmart to 60.00 at GNC.

Is hoodia a stimulant? I'm not sure how I feel about using stimulants to lose weight... my mom took phen-phen when it could still be prescribed and she ended up with a heart murmur and cardio-pulminary hypertension after only taking it for a couple of months. I don't know anything about hoodia though. I personally have had little success with diet pills, herbal dexatrim made me feel light-headed and another pill I tried had chromium picconilate (or something like that) in it and I read in a book that it could cause chromosonal damage so I quit taking it.

Ill be honest... I dont have very high opinions of any of this stuff...I think you need to be real careful and make sure you talk to your doctor before you start anything... I know a girl who was on a weight loss supplement and died... no thanks!
I personally have found that the most success has come when I eat healthy & exercise..its harder work but you will be all over healthier for it.

of course everyone should always ask their doctor first! but no, hoodia is not a stimulant, its a plant that grows in south africa that is used as a natural appetite suppresant. it contains a molecule that tricks your brain into thinking your full. trimspa also has chromium in it, but its not picolinate its dinicotinate glycinate but i know nothing about that.

i wouldnt trust anything with ginseng in it and its way overpriced for just being an herbal diet aid. i will have to look into it more though.

Chromium is found naturally in foods such as apples, sweet potatoes brewers yeast and molasses. Chromium picolinate is the form people absorb best.......What picolinate is I have no idea..but I am going to look that up because I take that every morning.....

chromium picolinate is perfectly safe. what it does is stabalize blood sugar and curb cravings.

i've heard about hoodia before and i'm really curious about it. however, i'm sort of scared to take diet pills, because a lot of people have heart problems and die after taking them . how safe is it, do you know, and how extensively has it been tested? is it safe to take everyday? my basic theory about diet pills is that i won't be able to continue taking any pill forever so i might as well get used to doing it on my own now, without chemical help. but if hoodia is safe to take on occasion, like if i need to drop a few real fast for a special event or something, then i can see taking it if it's safe. but no pill is worth risking my health, besides they're really expensive, so if they don't work it's a big waste of money.
