The media is buzzing with news and research about the wonder plant "Hoodia"'s effect on losing weight fast. There are millions of companies who professes that they have the real wonder drug with them and their product will assist you to lose excess body weight really fast.
But the truth will startle you. True that the wonder plant Hoodia has a very effective ingredient that suppresses our appetite; but are you sure about the companies that are supposed to sell you the real ingredient? This is where the problem really lies.
Hoodia is a plant that grows in the Kalahari desert in South Africa and for an estimated 20,000 years, the native bushmen have used this plant to suppress their appetite on long hunting trips.
Researchers have discovered that this wonder plant has a molecule which is named as P57 and this P57 sends a signal to your brain telling to stop eating that you are full now. This fullness feeling lasts for a whole day and that's why the early native bushmen would harp on this plant to suppress their appetite on long hunting trips, sometimes even for days and days.
CBS news featured a 60 minutes program on this wonder plant; Lesley Stahl traveled to Africa with her team to test if Hoodia actually worked as it claims to do. After trying it, she claimed to have no appetite the whole day. In fact she also claimed that this substance did not produce side effects like any other diet pills; no bad stomach, no heart burning, no bad taste.
So as per the scientific research we are having now; Hoodia is confirmed to help you lose weight really fast. But the real problem lies in its extraction. The multi million drug company Pfizer has been involved in the initial research; and have decided that it would be not practical to create a synthetic version of P57.They also says that it is unlikely that you will be able to benefit from a Hoodia supplement, until science find a way to extract the real substance of P57 from the plant.
