Hoodia gordonii is a succulent plant found in the Kalahari Desert of South Africa. The San tribesmen of the Kalahari have been using hoodia as a food source for thousands of years.
What is Hoodia?
NOW® Mega Hoodia delivers the herbal power of 100% pure Hoodia gordonii, with nothing removed except water. Hoodia was originally consumed as food by indigenous tribes to help endure long, exhausting hunting expeditions. This legally harvested South African Hoodia benefits the environment and the San tribes, and is CITES certified.
Hoodia's appetite-suppressing ingredient, known as P57, seems to send a signal to the hypothalamus of the brain that tells the body it is no longer hungry. This brain message is much stronger than that of glucose.*
What are Hoodia's Benefits?
Many people worldwide are at risk from conditions related to obesity, such as heart disease and diabetes. Hoodia research with subjects has shown the reduction of appetite along with a reduced caloric intake. A person with little willpower to control overeating can find that they no longer feel hungry. Hoodia may well be a dieter's dream come true in that it fools the brain into thinking it has already consumed food and feels full and satisfied.
South African Hoodia Gordonii 500 Complex contains three popular dieting ingredients formulated into one dynamic blend. Hoodia Gordonii is rapidly gaining popularity among dieters as a complementart addition to their reduced-calorie diets and daily exercise programs.
Extracts of Cocoa and Green Tea, which contain components such as Theobromine and Polyphenols provide their own natural benefits to round out this unique formulation.
