How is the P57 molecule in Hoodia Gordonii Related to Weight Loss?
Hoodia Gordonii can help you to lose weight naturally because it contains the active ingredient P57. The P57 molecule is what is responsible for inducing weight loss after it is eaten. Evidence of this is seen in its use by the San Bushmen of the Kalahari Desert as an appetite suppressant. They would eat the fleshy core of the succulent, to put of hunger and thirst during their long expeditions across the desert.
The P57 molecule in Hoodia Gordonii, works by sending signals to the mid-region of your brain, telling it that your appetite is full. The mid-region of your brain possesses nerve cells, which can sense glucose. When you eat, your blood sugar levels will rise and this increase in glucose is sensed by the cells in the mid-region of your brain. When you have had enough glucose, these nerve cells give a feeling of fullness.
The P57 molecule performs the same action that glucose does; only it’s about 10,000 times faster than glucose and you do not have to eat food to get the feeling of fullness. As your appetite is suppressed, you no longer crave for food. The fat stored in your body is burnt, enabling you to achieve your ideal weight goals.
Phytopharm, the pharmaceutical company that has got the patent rights to Hoodia Gordonii’s active ingredient P57 conducted a double-blind, clinical study on morbidly obese participants. Those participants, who were given P57, took an average 1,000 less calories per day than the participants, who were given a placebo. The group using P57 Hoodia Gordonii also reduced body fat in addition to experiencing a loss in appetite and felt no side effects, bringing out the fact that taking Hoodia Gordonii will enable a person to lose weight naturally.
