Question

Answer
Hi Tara,

Unfortunately there are no firm studies backing the claims that hoodia works as advertised. In fact Hoodia is so rare that it has been reported many companies that claim to have Hoodia in there products in fact do not.

I recommend concentrating on diet and exercise if you would like to lose weight and live a healthy lifestyle. Also consider finding your out what your body composition is so you can track your progress towards decreasing body fat and increasing lean mass. You should be able to do this at a local gym or health club.

If you want to use a supplement that helps burn fat try CLA (conjugated linoleic acid) which has been shown to help reduce abdominal fat and may also be effective in burning fat on your thighs. You can easily find CLA at health food stores or on-line. Remember that when it comes to supplements you get what you pay for...

Two other supplements worth noting are citrus aurantium (CA)and garcinia cambogia (GC)(hydroxycitric acid).

CA is thermogenic, it burns fat and stimulates metabolism. Its active component is synephrine, an amine. Make sure your CA supplement is standardized to 6% amine content for the best results.

GC has been shown to decrease appetite and raise levels of seretonin, a hormone that is released after you eat carbohydrates and helps signal that you are satisfied. By GC releasing seretonin your appetite for food, especially carbohydrates is decreased.

Neither of these supplements has been shown to detrimental side effects however you should always ask your doctor before using any dietary supplement.
