Firstly: I love this company! They ship quickly, their products are top quality, and I love the way they do business!There are dosing measurements on the package and they are very clear. You may need to purchase Norcos tiny spoon set for those supplements requiring minuscule doses. People giving this product/company a demerit because they do not provide spoons are retarded! Flour, sugar, and spices don't come w measuring spoons either. Seriously??! If you're unsure simply go to the company's own website, information is clearly and in detail provided for you.I've spent so many hundreds of dollars on appetite suppressants, diet pills, weight loss products, etc... This WORKS! Almost too effectively. lol I take 1/4 tsp an hour or so before a meal and I find I'm not thinking about eating at all when I should be or would be in the past so hungry I made all the wrong choices. (if you know what I mean).This gives me time to put together a better choice. (a salad, a piece of chicken and veggie, etc.. instead of grabbing at everything to immediately satiate my craving) it also is extremely effective in allowing me to implement smaller portions without feeling deprived. I feel like I've eaten all I can. REALLY!I have to say it has removed my craving for food, my thinking about when I can eat, allowed me to eat smaller meals w/o wanting more food. It works, it's effective, it's priceless. I'm not too anal about the need to take it an hour before a meal..... If I'm going out for errands and just had a meal, I'll take it. It's definitely worked to get me through those interim hours w/o that desperate feeling of starvation come over me.Taste: this won't dissolve under your tongue. The taste is strange on its own but not so bad I couldn't take it on my tongue, it just doesn't dissolve very well. Bleh That said: I've put it in my protein shakes and found that for me it was not as potent as when I mixed a dose with a 1/4 cup boiling water let it cool and shot it down. It's most effective in as concentrated a form as you can take it. (at least that's what I've found to be the case) it does not dissolve in juice, or cold water. Once dissolved the diluted taste is very tolerable almost negligible. I've used more water and coffee. My personal preference is in as little boiling water as possible and straight.The best thing to do is experiment w what method and dose works best for you. Just know it's no scam product. Every body is different, I don't mind the taste of this product at all, even right out of the bag, but I find it to be most effective for me when I take 1/4 tsp. mixed w 1/4 cup boiling water - and drink it after it's cooled.Thanks Bulk Supplements!

Be careful with this stuff. It does seem to suppress appetite, but it feels like a stimulant to me. It is known to possibly increase blood pressure and heart rate. Start with 1/16th of a teaspoon. I started with 1/8th and I think it was a little too much. Of course everyone's body is different, but best to start out cautiously. I dissolved it in 1/4 cup of hot water, as someone suggested, then let it cool a bit before drinking. It tastes fine, just like tea. I think this powder is the real thing and very pure. It is also known to possibly cause liver damage. Another reason to take as little as possible. Some say it may take 2 weeks to notice the effects, but I noticed the first time I tried it.In the end I had to return this as it just made my heart too irregular. Have since been doing Medifast which has some great new products. I'm actually losing weight without being hungry. You eat 5 Medifast meals and one lean protein and vegetable meal a day.

"I've been using this Hoodia extract powder for a few weeks now, and I’m really impressed with the results. It’s a natural appetite suppressant that helps me manage my cravings throughout the day, which is especially helpful when I’m trying to stick to my diet plan. The powder is easy to mix into smoothies or juices, and it doesn’t have a strong taste, which is a plus. I also appreciate that it’s vegan and gluten-free, making it a good fit for my dietary preferences. The 250g pack is generous and lasts a long time, even with daily use. If you’re looking for a natural way to support your weight management goals, this Hoodia supplement is worth trying!

I'm not sure this is the real thing. It hasn't been killing my appetite, doesnt taste like authentic hoodia gordonii, (which can cause a strong gag reflex upon ingestion, due to it's bitterness.) Not to mention, "gordonii" isnt mentioned anywhere on the bag. It would be nice if this could be authenticated, as it's very easy for companies to sell inauthentic product to consumers and make claims such as "it contains the p57 glycoside" even if it contains none.. The ariel stems are the primary part of the plant with the active appetite suppressing glycoside (p57.) Ive been taking more than recommended and still have desire for food. We bought 2 bags of this stuff. Maybe it's a low grade batch? Not sure... I will keep trying with it, because well, I have it now, but it isnt producing the same powerful impact as Microingredients hoodia gordonii powder (who no longer carry it unfortunately.) Authentic hoodia gordonii is very difficult to find, and I was a bit skeptical considering this bag only says "hoodia" on it (which could be any number of hoodia species.) You know when its the real thing, because it completely wipes out your appetite entirely while maintaining stable blood sugar and insulin levels (I.e: energy). There is an unmistakable affect when ingesting the real deal, and this doesnt seem to produce those affects, even at crazy high doses..it would be nice if someone from the company could come forward and address this, as I'm sure they dont want it to reflect poorly on the companies reputation.

Haven't use it enough to give it a 3 or above. It hasn't curved my appetite. Maybe I'm not using it correctly

I've only just received the Hoodia. Have been taking it with Gymnema and so far my appetite is greatly curbed. I live a fasted lifestyle and this benefit helps me tremendously! Will update you later once I've taken it for an extended period. I would've given more stars, but Hoodia and I have only just met and I don't want to rush things. Right now we're just acquaintances, friends soon I hope and who knows where this is going to lead. Love maybe? I don't know. Fingers crossed!
