Losing Weight With Hoodia - Does It Really Work?

We see it on TV every day...the constant bombardment of advertisements for the latest weight loss pills. Unfortunately, most of these are unhealthy and potentially dangerous, and many of them don't have the effect they promised. The latest craze has been the herbal products such as Hoodia and the various herbal cleanses. Here's a look at what I'm talking about and what you might want to know before going this route for losing weight.

Hoodia Gordinni is exactly what you'd expect from a diet pill. A pill that suppresses your appetite, allowing you to feel satiated even when eating less. While there are no major side effects to using Hoodia, there are still two major downsides: The weight loss is based on under-eating, and the fact that finding "genuine" Hoodia is extremely difficult.

Hoodia is extracted from a plant that grows exclusively in South Africa. Because of the expenses and difficulties of importing genuine Hoodia, most Hoodia pills on the market are either imitation or diluted. These pills are almost guaranteed to be a waste of money. Instead, look for 100% certified Hoodia pills - And a much higher price tag.

The second way to lose weight through herbal remedies is a herbal cleanse. Often times the body cannot get rid of fat, because of the excess toxins stored within the body. Fat acts as a toxic container for the body, where all the toxins that the body hasn’t had time to get rid of gets stored. A herbal cleanse releases these toxins from the fat cells and gives the body a chance to cleanse itself.

A herbal cleanse generally involves a two to three week fast. Throughout the fast, no additional toxins are introduced to the body through the diet, and the body has a chance to release the toxins it's stored up over time. The herbs that are used in the fast assist the body in detoxifying itself. The problem though is that few people can go on a fast of more than a day or two, making this an extremely difficult way to go.

After trying these methods, and many others as well, I still recommend Fat Loss 4 Idiots for losing weight. You won't have the side effects or hunger issues, and it is so simple to follow. You can learn more by going to Fat Loss 4 Idiots
