Flora HoodiaTrim®

20:1 extract + fat burner


Helps trim portions...
...and proportions!


A powerful new weapon in the battle of the bulge
 
It’s natural to feel hungry. We need food to survive. But nature never intended us to eat food of the richness and in the quantities that have become commonplace, nor were we intended to deal with the high level of stress that is often a root cause of overeating. Fortunately, nature has solutions. We’ve blended these food and herb extracts to create Flora HoodiaTrim: a safe, effective, natural yet potent option in your battle of the bulge.

 
The secret to slimming
 
The secret to slimming and weight loss is that there is no secret. Although approaches and philosophies may appear to be dramatically different, all diet programs foster the same objectives: prevent the storage of additional fat and burn off the layer of fat that has already accumulated. Some diets achieve this goal by limiting the intake of calories. Others attempt to eliminate certain kinds of food, such as carbohydrates. Regardless of the approach, one thing is certain. All have an unacceptably high failure rate, for the most part because old habits die hard or because the temptation of forbidden foods (many accurately described as junk food and most prepared and packaged with an almost frightening degree of sophistication) overwhelms even the best of intentions. HoodiaTrim has been formulated to help those committed to weight loss, whether or not they are following a formal dietary regime, to:
• reduce the intake of fattening foods
• increase the metabolic rate in order to help burn stored fat
• suppress the urge to eat due to stress
• fortify resolve and willpower
• resist the negative, psychological impact of deprivation

In keeping with Flora’s long-established traditions, the principal ingredients are all-natural, premium quality, and extracted from organic sources where available.
 
How HoodiaTrim capsules can help
 
HoodiaTrim capsules are intended to be taken 15 to 30 minutes prior to eating breakfast and/or lunch and/or dinner (2 capsules 2-3 times per day), and may be incorporated with any diet plan. Over the next few hours (before/during/between meals), each of the extracts will contribute its specific effects in support of slimming, starting with a decreased overall interest in eating or drinking including between-meal snacking (hoodia), increased metabolic rate and fat burning (yerba maté), a general feeling of calmness and well-being similar to satiation (damiana, chamomile and cocoa), a reduction in the conversion of carbohydrates to fat and lower blood glucose (green coffee beans), and increased energy expenditure (green tea extract).

Hoodia extract (Hoodia gordonii)

• Hoodia is an African cactus-like succulent plant. For thousands of years, African tribesmen have eaten the stems of hoodia plants to stave off hunger and thirst on long hunting trips. Recent scientific studies have shown that hoodia's appetite-suppressing active ingredient is estimated to be up to 100,000 times as potent as glucose in sending a signal to the brain that the body is in a state of satiety. Hoodia works in a similar way as sugar to stave off hunger and make a person feel full – but without the calories. In clinical trials on obese subjects it has been proven to reduce caloric intake by as much as 40%. Hoodia plant extracts suppress appetite naturally and are known to be free of side effects. HoodiaTrim has been formulated with concentrated hoodia to help reduce caloric intake.

Damiana extract (Turnera diffusa)

• Damiana has been used historically in Mexico, Texas, Southern California and Central America to relieve irritability, nervousness and mild depression. It is also used as a general tonic to improve wellness and is said to possess mild sedative qualities. In this capacity it has been used to improve relaxation and to improve wellbeing. HoodiaTrim has been formulated with damiana because of its ability to elevate mood in order to help dieters feel good about dieting.

Chamomile extract (Matricaria recutita)

• Chamomile is well known as a calming and relaxing bedtime tea and research has shown that the apigenin it contains provides a mild calming effect. HoodiaTrim has been formulated with chamomile to help balance the stimulant effect of caffeine.

Yerba maté extract (Ilex paraguariensis)

• Maté, also known as yerba maté, kali chaye, and Paraguay tea, is a small evergreen tree or bush native to Brazil, Argentina and Paraguay. In most parts of South America, maté is the national drink, and as a daily stimulant, it is even more popular than tea or coffee. Yerba maté extract, a concentrated version of maté tea containing 20% caffeine, acts on the central nervous system as a stimulant, diuretic and mild pain reliever. HoodiaTrim has been formulated with yerba maté for its ability to stimulate the metabolism.

Green coffee extract (caffeine-reduced) (Coffea arabica)

• Coffee beans are the seeds of a plant native to Ethiopia. Coffee may help people lose weight by increasing the metabolic rate by about 4%, thereby boosting the number of calories burned per hour. The weight-loss effect of green coffee extract is mainly attributed to the presence of chlorogenic acid. Chlorogenic acid has been shown to have a potential role in decreasing the uptake of glucose and in regulating the blood glucose level by up to 20% by reducing the absorption of carbohydrates. At the same time, green coffee extract is a powerful antioxidant. HoodiaTrim has been formulated with green coffee extract to help burn fat.

Green tea extract (caffeine-reduced) (Camellia sinensis)

• Green tea, also known as Chinese tea, is native to Asia. Green tea is taken from the same plant as black tea. According to a study published by the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, green tea appears to accelerate calorie burning – including fat calories – regardless of the presence of caffeine. HoodiaTrim has been formulated with green tea extract for its ability to burn fat and aid digestion.

Cocoa extract (Theobroma cacao)

• Cacao beans are the fruit of an Amazonian tree popularly used for making cocoa “chocolate”. Cocoa is very rich in flavonoids that have strong antioxidant properties. One of its active ingredients, theobromine (the word is derived from the Latin name), is well known for its mild diuretic and anti-depressant properties. It also has a similar effect to caffeine in that it increases energy, motivation to work, and alertness; however, it has only 1/10th of the cardiac effect. HoodiaTrim features a superior quality extract of cacao providing 10% theobromine. Cacao consumption seems to diminish appetite and appears to improve mood. Cacao also contains enzyme inhibitors that decrease the body’s ability to breakdown anandamide, a compound the brain produces to signal pleasure, resulting in prolonged blissful or euphoric feelings. HoodiaTrim has been formulated with cocoa extract because of the multiple effects of theobromine.
