Hoodia – How long does it take before it starts to work?

Since Hoodia Gordonii is a completely natural plant material, it does not work like drugs that are designed to work the same way for everyone. Everyone’s body chemistry is slightly different and each person will react to herbs differently. It may take time before it starts to work for you.

Some people have found that from the first time they take hoodia, their food demands decrease considerably. Others needed to be on a two-caps-a-day regiment for a full month before seeing results. Dieters reported that after taking hoodia for several months they needed to increase the dose to get the potency they needed. And likewise, some have noted that one pill would keep the appetite suppressed for several days.

You can see that there is no one dose or schedule that is universal. You’ll have to see what works for you. The most important thing to remember is that hoodia gordonii will curb your appetite and help you lose weight. But you have to take it over time. don’t give up. That would be a big mistake.

We suggest the following:

1. Make sure you test the product honestly. Take a full bottle before deciding if it works for you or not. Hoodia has a very subtle effect as it contains no stimulants, so you won’t feel a thing. While other dietary products speed up your heart or cause digestive upsets, you won’t even know you’ve taken hoodia. (Except your hunger cravings will be gone.)

2. Try varying your doses to find out which one is right for you. Each person has different rates of absorption. The usual dose is 1 capsule in the morning and 1 in the evening approximately 1 to 2 hours before meals. You may want to try starting with 2 capsules in the morning and 2 in the evening for the first 3 days. If, on the first day, you find that hoodia is already curbing your appetite, you can go back to using a lower dose.

3. If you have noticed that you are rarely hungry during the day but binge at night, skip the daytime dose and see if just one capsule in the evening solves your problem. Or take one in the afternoon and one at night. If you’re the kind of person who wakes up hungry, take your hoodia when you wake up.

4. Mark your calendar to find out when you started taking hoodia. Don’t worry about how you feel or if you’re losing weight. Try to avoid thinking about being hungry? In many cases, you may feel hungry but find that you don’t eat as much as you used to. You ‘fill up’ faster.

5. Try not to weigh yourself for at least 2 weeks. Looking at the scale is a bad habit, as it is normal for your weight to fluctuate daily. It’s easy to get disappointed that you’re not losing and get discouraged. Remember, you may be one of the people who needs to stay on hoodia for a month or more before it starts to work. Don’t make the mistake of thinking that if it doesn’t work in a few days, it won’t work. Don’t beat yourself up before you start.

6. Give yourself a disciplined 60 days when you take hoodia every day. Be sure not to skip days or change doses. Consider this your trial period to see if it will work. Before two months are up, you’ll hear people comment on how great it looks.

When you step on the scale, you will be pleasantly surprised. One of the biggest benefits is that you’ll not only look great, but you’ll realize that it was actually easy to lose.
