Again, only slightly germaine to this NG, but there are smart people
here who may have run across this.
I've been googling this supplement and am having trouble separating
the authoritative from the hocus-pocus.
Apparently a "South-African Plant Which Curbs Hunger".
Anyone had experience with it?
Thanks for the info.

I recall a Dateline piece showed Hoodia worked
pretty well in suppressing appetite. However it is a
slow-growing, South African desert plant.
Only one south African medical house claims to figure
out how to cultivate it and holds the patent.
So the bottom line was that virtually all of Hoodia in America
is fake. There is no regulation of supplement quality
or effectiveness in the US unless the supplement causes
harm.

Hoodia. It works quite well, in my experience. (I use the bulk
powder from 1fast400, others report good results with capsules from
NOW.)
