In South Africa for hundreds of years the Hoodia Gordoni Cactus has been used by the San indigenous people as an appetite suppressant and thirst quencher. Hoodia capsules contain a potent 20:1 extract of the hoodia cactus. Extracts contain concentrated amounts of the active ingredients found in nature. The 20:1 extract in Hoodia capsules is twenty times as potent in active constituents as the hoodia plant itself. In 1937, a Dutch anthropologist studying the San indigenous people in the Kalahari desert near what is now the South Africa-Namibia border noted that they sucked on the Hoodia plant as an appetite suppressant and thirst quencher.
These bushmen did not eat on their two to three day hunts; instead, they munched on the stem of this succulent to suppress their hunger and thirst.
Of course pharmaceutical companies have recognized the potential from the extract of the hoodia plant and are currently trying to synthetically reproduce the active components so that they can be patented as a prescription appetite suppression drug. Hoodia capsules contain the all natural concentrated 20:1 extract of the hoodia cactus plant.
Extracts from this cactus have been shown in clinical trials on obese subjects to reduce caloric intake by 30% to 40%. Significant weight loss has resulted from such a drop in caloric intake. Natures Rx Hoodia Diet Tabs contain only the all natural concentrated 20:1 extract of the hoodia cactus plant itself. There are no artificial appetite control agents, only natural concentrated hoodia cactus extract.
Chromium has been added to the formula to help regulate blood sugar levels as there is a link between blood glucose and satiety. Calcium Pyruvate has been added to enhance fat and weight loss. Pyruvate has been documented to promote fat burning without corresponding muscle loss which accompanies most of the starvation diet plans. Citrus Pectin and Prune fiber are included as well to increase bulking in the stomach, also stimulating satiety and reducing the desire to eat. Grapefruit seed extract is added to complete this comprehensive, well laid powerful appetite control diet formula.
