hoodia side effects

Hoodia is such a great appetite suppressant that we have to wonder if it has any adverse side effects such as ephedra which was so popular a few years ago.

But unlike ephedra, which is chemically close to amphetamine or speed, hoodia by all accounts so far does not give you those feelings of nervousness, anxiety, or racing hearts. All it seems to do is to suppress the appetite in a spectacular fashion.

In her 60 minutes TV segment on hoodia, Leslie Stahl tried it on camera in the early morning and reported later that she hadn't been hungry all day, even at times when she normally would have.

Because of its newness here, all evidence of side effects so far has been anecdotal. There are, as yet, no long-term published studies on the side effects.

But we do know that the Bushmen of Africa have been using it for centuries apparently with no harm.
