I have been using this on and off for several years to maintain my weight and prevent overeating. It works very well. To the new users I would say this: give it a couple of weeks to kick in. It needs to build up in your system. Also, it isn't a stimulant or a metabolism booster or anything like that. It's a straight appetite suppressant, nothing more. And it's not a miracle pill, but it does work. If that's what you need, this may fit the bill. Because there haven't been (to my knowledge) any conclusive studies about the long term effects of hoodia on the human body, my choice is to use with caution. I cycle on and off frequently and I also take it with milk thistle (a known liver protectant and purifier) just in case. I do like the fact that I haven't built a tolerance to it and that it doesn't cause things like jitters, high blood pressure or heart issues--which is often the case with other diet supplements. This works for me. And I'll probably keep using it. NOW products have never been a disappointment.

Didn't notice a difference until I started using 2 at a time. Works well.. not hungry for at least 4-5 hours

This product has certainly been effective in curbing my appetite. I still eat everything I want, but I'm eating less portions and feeling full. I'm losing weight slowly--which is the best way to do it. Thank you for the product.

I have been using this product for about 3 weeks at the recommendation of a health food shop owner. I have tried other hoodia products with no results. This product is awesome. It really controls your appetite. Best taken an hour before meals if possible. Works for hours. Retaining water will not be a problem when you take this herb.

Worked very well for first few days. Now, not so effective. I guess your body can develop a tolerance to it, upping the dosage has helped though. Having less appetite is all well and good but you still feel like you have no energy and crave food for this reason. Hoodia certainly helps though! Maybe find something low in calories to keep your energy up. Green tea is helping me with energy, plus it helps you lose weight as an added bonus.
