Through the interviews I conducted, I happen to know that the hoodia gordonii in the Trim Spa formula is in fact, genuine. This is the real stuff. But, as much as hoodia can suppress your appetite, I've only found it to be effective in very large doses or when taken as a tincture. And the amount of hoodia in Trim Spa is relatively low -- it's only 150mg when you take two tablets. In my opinion, that's too low to have any effect at all. I was taking 1200 mg a day and still not seeing very much of an effect from the hoodia powder, and here in Trim Spa you're only getting a fraction of that.

Even some of the big retail chains selling hoodia weight loss products are selling counterfeit hoodia gordonii. I'm not going to name names, because there aren't enough lawyers in the world to defend me against the onslaught of legal claims that would be unleashed if I did; however, I can tell you I would only buy hoodia online through the sources that I've mentioned, or through any others that consistently pass the certification tests. How to know who to trust The problem is that it's really tough to know which companies to trust.

It is sad that this mess overshadows the other part of the question, which is whether or not hoodia gordonii works as an appetite suppressant even if you have the real thing. Because there has been so much counterfeiting and so much adulterated hoodia being sold to consumers, most people who have used hoodia didn't notice any effect. They think that hoodia doesn't work, but they probably weren't taking real hoodia in the first place. I believe that hoodia holds potential for being a highly effective appetite suppressant.

In fact, I think genuine hoodia gordonii could be more effective than prescription drugs for helping people lose weight. But most people will never find out whether hoodia works for them because they'll never get their hands on the real thing. Until the Federal Trade Commission steps in and begins to really crack down on the con artists who currently dominate much of the marketing and advertising in the hoodia industry, American consumers are going to continue to be victimized.

PYY3-36 appetite control nasal spray may be effective, yet still misused by consumers Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

It’s from the hoodia gordonii succulent and it is now widely sold as capsules or tinctures for appetite control. This is the promise of the Nastech PYY3-36 Nasal Spray, and it is potentially a very promising treatment for obesity (and would even help those with diabetes as well). In fact, this could potentially become a huge success as a prescription drug. It could be a blockbuster seller. But now let's look at some of the problems this product could bring to the forefront if it becomes a huge success.

The truth on losing abdominal body fat - forget the diet hype, here's how it really works Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

Fat loss takes real work, and even though there are some helpful appetite control tools available right now (like hoodia gordonii supplements), there are no magic pills that will do the work for you. This isn't what you'll hear from those selling fat loss supplements and diet pills, of course. But it's the truth as things stand today.

New antiviral bird flu product hits the market, receives Health Ranger's independent recommendation Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

Make no mistake: the bird flu "panic" is going to bring out a bunch of crooks and hucksters in the herbal supplement market, and there will be con artists selling counterfeit antiviral products just like you see people in the weight loss industry selling bogus hoodia gordonii. That's why I strongly encourage you to stick with companies and products you can trust. So, to be detailed, my current top-recommended antiviral product is: Jon Barron's Baseline of Health Formula "Super ViraGon": (current price is $39.95 for one bottle, or $100 for five) http://www.baselinenutritionals.

You can also extend the effect of this by taking appetite suppressant supplements. hoodia gordonii is one I've reviewed quite extensively, and it is currently increasing in popularity. My own experience is that hoodia tincture can help, but even hoodia doesn't shut off appetite completely. Also, you don't want to starve yourself by eating these 100-calorie meals all day long. Remember, starvation is the fastest way to train your body to hold on to body fat. These are just items to get you past a difficult time when your appetite is unbearably intense.
