DEX-L10 works for me, August 15, 2006
This review is from: Hoodia Gordonii DEX-L10 South African Hoodia Gordonii, Capsules, 60-Count Bottle (Health and Beauty)
I've only tried this brand after searching far and wide for reviews and ingredients for appetite control. Hoodia actually works, but it's not something that you notice right away. After reading the directions that is stated quite plainly. It took about 3 days of taking 2caps in the afternoon and 2 more in the evening (I'm a late night muncher) when I realized I wasn't going to the fridge or running to the store for a snack. But let me make this clear in order to get the best benefits possible from this product be consistent with use. I kinda dropped off because I had to reorder and by the time my lazy butt got around to getting more I was already back to my munching. I ordered two bottles this time. Hoodia helped me lose weight by keeping my mind off of food so I could concentrate on fitness and eating properly.

Liking it so far, December 22, 2007
This review is from: Hoodia Gordonii DEX-L10 South African Hoodia Gordonii, Capsules, 60-Count Bottle (Health and Beauty)
I just began taking this so can't comment yet on how much wieght this will make you lose. I will say that as an appetite suppressant, I have found it to be effective, and pretty much from the first day. I was a big fan of the old ephedra products such as the original Metabolife 356 and Herbal PhenFen. I have lost as much as 50-60 pounds taking those in the past after my pregnancies, and have found nothing to rival them. This is the most effective thing I have found as an appetite suppressant since those went off the market. I know it is supposed to work for some and not others, but one suggestion I have if you are seeing no effect is to take this in relatively high amounts to get any effect out of it. I am taking 6 a day, two pills each, basically about 1/2 to 1 hour before all 3 meals. Another Amazon reviewer mentioned this and I am glad I saw it. My big downfall for snacking is actually in the evening when I am up late working or watching TV and everyone in the house is in bed. I am hoping If I take it late enough it will sustain me through then. Not only does it help control hunger, although I am occasionally still pretty hungry, it just makes you pretty uninterested in food, and just need to eat some to keep from starving. I am hoping as my stomach shrinks a bit, this hunger will also be less. If anyone has tried the Dex L10 that is a combo Hoodia with a Fat burner I am anxious to see how that works, as I think that probably speeds up the weight loss as opposed to just an appetite suppressant. Again haven't found anything close to working as well as the old pre-ban Ephedra products, but like the Hoodia so far.

hooray for hoodia!, August 17, 2006
This review is from: Hoodia Gordonii DEX-L10 South African Hoodia Gordonii, Capsules, 60-Count Bottle (Health and Beauty)
this is willpower in a bottle! i have always been the type of person who doesn't necessarily need to be hungry to eat. if it was there, i was eating it. i work in an office, and there are ALWAYS treats around for a birthday or holiday. i take two pills before breakfast, and they last all day. i can sit in plain veiw of those treats and am not only not hungry, but not tempted to eat them. i also feel like i have more energy, and having the power to say no to food gives me confidence.
i gave 4 instead of 5 because i haven't been on this long enough to see how it effects weight loss. but i am confident that decreased caloric intake coupled with exercise will give results.
