NSI Hoodia Gordonii -- 500 mg - 240 Vegetarian Capsules

NSI Hoodia Gordonii -- 500 mg - 240 Vegetarian Capsules

Stimulant-free weight-management aid. An all-natural, plant-based supplement. (20:1 Concentrate). How does NSI® Hoodia Gordonii work? Hoodia gordonii is a plant found in the Kalahari Desert of South Africa and it has been traditionally used by tribes for thousands of years to help stave off hunger while on long hunting expeditions. This supplement works by helping to "trick" your brain into thinking you've eaten, helping you feel fuller. Some researchers believe a molecule found in hoodia gordonii (known as P57) is responsible for its ability to help curtail appetite and support increased energy levels without any known side effects. NSI®  Hoodia Gordonii is better because it:. Is a 20 to 1 concentrated extract, so you are receiving 20X the potency. Costs less than other major brands of Hoodia Gordonii.  . Did You Know? All NSI supplements are packaged in HDPE (High Density Polyethylene) bottles. These bottles keep moisture vapor out, protecting the freshness and integrity of their contents, and are 400% more effective compared other brands currently using PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) bottles. HDPE bottles do not break as glass can and are also recyclable so we urge you to please recycle them.

Very Disappointed, July 8, 2009
By Muzz from Gulf Coast, Fl

"Just did not work for me, had been doing very well on a weight loss plan, with prescription appetite suppressants, but this had no affect at all, in fact craved sweets which is totally unlike me. Also had awful bloating and gas. I was so disappointed after all the other reviews."

By blu95 from baltimore, md

"i've been using hoodia for about 2 years now. This is the best value that i have found. It does help to curve your appetite. I have not had any side effects except for my stomach being a little bloated. This is a great alternative to diet pills."

Wards Off Hunger; Makes Skin Itch, December 22, 2008
By LucyBLucy from Rochester, NY

"I bought this to try and ward off hunger pangs and control my appetite. It works well for that, but when I was taking two capsules at a time (as is directed) my skin started itching horribly (and I've never had an issue with itchy skin). I cut back to one capsule at a time, and still get the appetite benefits, but normal skin again!

Oh, the other thing is that two capsules were producing painful gas in my stomach and digestive tract if I tried to eat anything --- no matter how big or small (liquid or solid). I'd be in pain and very bloated for four hours before it finally went away. Again, ONE CAPSULE remedied that.

Absolutely works!!!, October 13, 2008
By Healthnutforever from Des Plaines, IL

"I just want to let everyone know that this product was my answer to weight loss. I gave it a try in Nov 2006 & 7 months later I lost a total of 50 lbs & 3 sizes. It was so easy I had to cut back to 4 capsules a day instead of 6 because I was losing more than 2 lbs a week. I do know how to eat properly. I just needed the extra help with hunger control. I can tell you I have eliminated white flour, white rice, white potato & most bad sugars & junk food most of the time. I drink green tea & lots of water along with my regular vitamin regime & moderate exercise. It's been 1 1/2 years now since I've lost the weight & I'm keeping it off. It also helps me to maintain. If you gain a couple of lbs, just take it for a week & it will be gone. All Hoodia is not equal, but this one really works! This product has been a blessing!"

Good appetite suppressant, September 18, 2008
By Bubbe from MD

"I tried to take Hoodia 3 times a day and it seemed like I was eating 50% of my previous intake, However, I had some sleep issues, which may have been completely unrelated. Still, I switched to just 2 caps before breakfast and I am eating less than before and have lost a few pounds."

"I didn't get any results that made me feel better. No more energy, weight control, anything. I did only buy the one jumbo bottle and I do have Ehlers Danlos Syndrome, it is a genetic joint disorder and it has progressed and is affecting other systems in my body. Maybe it is just me. Good luck to all of you!"

"While I did lose 1.5 lbs the first week, I gained it all back soon. The pills lost their effectiveness, and I felt like I needed to take a lot more to stave off hunger. At one point I was taking double the recommended dosage and still had trouble cutting calories using this product. The hunger just came back. Then I tried cutting back on the pills (trying to wean myself completely off), the hunger came back with a vengeance and I ended up eating twice as much. Now I weigh more than when I started using hoodia. I guess there is no magic pill after all."

"I have been using NSI's Hoodia for a week. I have lost 1.5 lbs, and while that may not seem like much, I am fairly satisfied with results. There are no negative side effects, and I feel good overall. While the 2 pills taken before each meal supress hunger, that doesn't mean you wont feel the urge to eat. If you eat when you are not hungry (if you eat for stress, habit or boredom) then you will still feel the urge to eat. The good news is that this product makes you fill full, so even if you do eat out of habit, you will probably eat less."
