Losing weight is easy when you're no longer hungry: scientists search for the biochemical keys
by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, NaturalNews Editor
Here's some interesting research into the chemical mechanisms of human
appetite. The goal, of course, is to learn secrets that might lead to a
biochemical treatment that could turn off hunger (appetite) and
therefore cause people to lose weight without suffering through bouts of
hunger. It's useful research, no doubt, and I applaud the curiosity, but
there's already a solution to weight control that works by turning off
the appetite: hoodia gordonii. "Hoodia," as it is known, is a
succulent native to South Africa. People who eat hoodia automatically
eat less because their appetites are gently and naturally suppressed. In
fact, one pharmaceutical company (at least) is already taking a hard
look at hoodia as contender for a prescription drug to treat obesity.
To read my full investigation into hoodia, visit the Consumer
Wellness Research Center, which offers a free report on the merits and
sources of hoodia.
