Hoodia Recommended Dosage: The Hoodia Dose For Maximum Results

By Reagan Miers


Hoodia diet pills can be effective appetite suppressants but the most common question asked by dieters pertains to the recommended hoodia dosage. They want to know how much they can safely take to suppress their appetite. It's a good question because hoodia diet pills aren't regulated and don't require a prescription so dieters are forced to figure it out themselves.

Working out the correct amount of hoodia you should take can be quite a daunting task. Everyone seems to tell a different story, for some a small amount, say 500mg might be enough to suppress their appetite, while others may tell you that they needed nearer to 2,000mg!

Experts say that it can take as much as 3,000mg per day to suppress appetite. And according to one doctor I spoke with who has been conducting a clinical trial for almost two years says that his patients have had the most weight loss success with a hoodia dosage in that 2,250-3,000mg range. He was quick to point out, however, that the positive results his patients have experienced were not only the result of hoodia diet pills. His patients also maintained a healthy diet and exercised.

The most effective hoodia dosage will vary from one person to another. What works for one person may not work for you. You may find that 1,500mg is all it takes, while another person may require 3,000mg or more. Diet pills that contain 100% authentic hoodia gordonii have been shown to be safe with virtually no side effects so "experimenting" with the dosage within reason is probably safe. However, if you have any concerns you should consult your doctor.

There are also some people who need to consult their doctor first whether they have any concerns or not. These people include pregnant and nursing women, children under the age of 18, people with any kind of health condition, and anyone taking medications. While diet pills that contain 100% authentic hoodia gordonii are safe, these people need to take caution when considering them and should definitely consult their doctor first! Please do not ignore this warning.

The most reliable way to discover the correct hoodia dosage for you is to follow the advice found on the product label. As long as you buy from a reliable supplier, they will recommend a safe dose to take each day. This will typically be about 1-2 pills per day for the first week - which would deliver you approximately 800-1,500mg of hoodia each day. After the first week you will usually be allowed to slowly increase the dose until you reach the maximum limit, which is usually about 4,500mg a day.

While hoodia gordonii is fantastic at reducing your appetite, in some people it can also reduce your thirst, so you must always drink lots of water. This is why the label on your hoodia gordonii diet pills will recommend you drink 8-10 ounces of water when taking your hoodia. Anyone who is dieting should be drinking around 8 glasses of water each day anyway!

One final thing to bear in mind is that not everyone can get an effective result from hoodia gordonii. Some people simply do not respond no matter how many capsules of hoodia they take each day. So if you find yourself taking the upper dosage, but you are still not noticing much difference in your appetite then hoodia probably isn't going to work for you, no matter how much you take.
