Hoodia Sure™

As mentioned, the formula contains the South African succulent Hoodia Gordonii; it supposedly utilizes a rapid-gel delivery system in a gel capsule. Each serving of Hoodia Sure contains a 550mg dose of Hoodia Gordonii, plus the plant Cissus quadrangularis to supposedly support the joints and the digestive system.

Hoodia Gordonii is a cactus-like plant that grows in southern Africa. The desert tribes’ people in that region have used it for generations to help curb hunger cravings on long journeys, and it has become popular in the West in recent years for aiding in weight loss. Hoodia is available in a wide range of dietary supplements.

The plant family Apocynaceae contains many varieties of the Hoodia genus; Hoodia Gordonii is the only species known to affect hunger. Hoodia Gordonii has also been shown to improve digestion, regulate blood sugar, help increase nutrient absorption, and is free of stimulants. It works as an appetite suppressant by making the brain think you have eaten and making you feel full.

According to the usage instructions posted on the Hoodia Sure website, dieters should take two softgel capsules with an 8-ounce glass of water twice a day. Apparently, it is best to take the capsules prior to eating lunch and dinner, and to not snack after dinner. The company advises dieters to use the product in conjunction with a sensible diet and a regular exercise program.

While this product may effectively curb hunger cravings and reduce food intake, consumers may be more interested in seeking an all-in-one formula containing an active fat burner, a natural appetite suppressant and additional vitamins and minerals for support. Using these types of products help ensure that the calories taken in actually get burned off.

Dieters seeking a natural supplement to curb hunger cravings might be interested in a product like Hoodia Sure; the key ingredient has been shown to be effective for suppressing the appetite and may help dieters reduce their daily caloric intake.

However, the formula does not appear to be the most effective for promoting fat loss, because it lacks an active fat burner. With all of the products currently available, consumers should choose those that have been proven to be effective. We have found that the combination of an appetite suppressant and an energy enhancer works quite well, and we suggest looking for herbal ingredients like Advantra-Z, the patented bitter orange extract that can effectively aid in fat burning, particularly when combined with Hoodia.
