The Hoodia Patch: Better Than Capsules?
Are you considering the hoodia patch? Before you get your hopes up thinking this is the answer to your weight loss woes, I have some bad news for you, hoodia patches may not be what they’re cracked up to be. While hoodia diet pills and products that contain authentic hoodia gordonii can be effective appetite suppressants, patches may be about as effective as a band aid!
Read any literature or visit any website that sells hoodia patches and you’ll see their biggest claim is that their products work more effectively than capsules. The idea behind the patch is that you’ll get a slow release of hoodia gordonii throughout the day as it passes through your skin and into your bloodstream.
Companies selling the hoodia patch will claim that since it bypasses your stomach and enters the bloodstream through the skin, it will suppress your appetite quicker and more effectively than capsules or liquids.
On the surface, this makes total sense but unfortunately there is no scientific evidence to back this theory. There isn’t one scientific or clinical study to date on the effectiveness of hoodia patches. In fact, there are very little studies on the effectiveness of hoodia gordonii itself!
What about the nicotine patch or the birth control patch? They work after all, so the hoodia patch must be effective. Sellers of hoodia patches will try to make this comparison but don’t fall for it. There is a big difference between these products.
Birth control patches require a prescription. Nicotine patches initially required a prescription and only recently have been over the counter. The hoodia patch has never required a prescription. Why is this distinction so important?
Any product that requires a prescription or once did has had to undergo rigorous testing and be subjected to governmental regulations before it can be marketed to the public as being effective. None of the hoodia patches sold today require a prescription. Doesn’t that tell you something?
If you don’t buy the clinical studies argument, what about the commonsense argument? Let me explain. Hoodia gordonii is a cactus-like plant grown in the Kalahari Desert of South Africa. It has been used for centuries by the San tribe to stave off hunger during long hunting trips.
They cut off about 2-3 inches of the plant, peel it, and then eat it. This small piece of the plant suppresses their appetite for hours. What more closely resembles eating the actual plant – swallowing a pill that contains the powder of the ground up plant, or sticking a patch on your skin? I think you would agree that a pill would be more effective than a patch.
While I firmly believe that hoodia patches are worthless, I don’t want to leave you with the impression that every hoodia capsule on the market is effective. In fact, according to a recent study, a majority of the hoodia supplements on the market today are fake so they’re as worthless as the patch. That same study concluded that only a handful of hoodia diet pills contain authentic hoodia gordonii.
Until there is a hoodia patch that actually works, your money will be better spent on a high quality hoodia diet pill that contains authentic hoodia gordonii and has been proven to be effective.

Has anyone ever tried herbal diet pills?
I am taking herbal diet pills called Total Control and Cell U loss, i just wanted to know if it's actually worked for someone to help them loose weight and let me know if anyone has had any symptoms.
I'm not just taking these pills i'm on a good diet and i exercise every day for an hour.
I have been through it all and know what's it about. The main thing is to stick in there. You can't be an addict to food and never exercise if you want to live a healthy life and keep the weight off. I've worked out, done every diet, and all types of classes.
Nothing works, besides dedication and intelligence towards the subject of losing weight.
First, depending on how much weight you need to lose, your diet is the first concern. You can't eat 10,000 calories a day and expect the weight to come off, even if you are exercising a lot. Which brings us to the next thing. Duh, Exercising…
This is a must especially if you need to a lot of weight. Get at least 30 mins of some good hardcore exercising. Do some cardio, in the long run, it's good for the heart.
However, I find the most hardest part of losing weight/keeping it off, in my diet. It's so hard to keep your fingers out of the cookie jar or those chocolate goodies. I've found a great addition to help any one out, it's a natural weight loss supplement called Proactol. Now don't get all crazy on me and say diet pills don't work. That is true, but not in this case. This one isn't meant to burn pounds while you sit on the couch. It's an appetite suppressant, along with being a fat binder. I saved money on the pills at theweightlossplace.com along with getting some good info. It basically makes those fingers not go towards the cookie jar. For me it's the best pill I've tried and I've tried cupboards full. Now this doesn't mean you have to follow my foot steps but I've successfully lost roughly 70 pounds and keeping it off til this day.
Well good luck and remember what I said, Dedicate.
Will taking Hoodia pills help or hurt my weight loss when I am on the ATKINS Diet?
I have done the Atkins diet before successfully and realize that every little bit of hidden sugar and carbs (like in diet sodas) will slow down your weight loss dramatically. What I was wondering is if I am doing the Atkins diet, would taking Hoodia pills help me in my weight loss or slow it down ?
With my personel experience I think hoodia will only help your weight loss process. I would think that if you take hoodia you could discontinue the atkins diet. Ive been very pleased with the results from hoodia.
