What is a Good Weight Loss Supplement to use with Diet?

We Answered:

There are two all natural weight loss supplements that are safe and have no side effects. They are Cha de Bugre and Hoodia Gordonii.

Cha de Bugre, is a new supplement that is growing in popularity and is similar to Ma Huang (Ephedrine) without any of the bad effects. Cha de Bugre is from Brazil and has been used there safely for centuries. Cha de Bugre provides energy, fat burning and appetite suppression that benefit weight loss. Cha de Bugre also has additional uses that are known in Brazil that include being used as a mild diuretic, a cellulite reducer, aides in reducing herpes simplex outbreaks and a heart tonic. You can find more about it at http://hoodiagordonii.totalink.com/cha_d…

Hoodia Gordonii is a natural appetite suppressant derived from a South African cactus that the bushmen have eaten there for thousands of years. You need to make sure you get a strong pure hoodia that is certified to be genuine. Check out Totalink's unbiased Hoodia comparison at http://hoodiagordonii.totalink.com/hoodi… in the "Confidence" column it will indicate if the brand is "Certified". These Hoodia brands have the credentials to back up their product. Also in that column it will indicate if the brand is "Returnable". These Hoodia brands allow you to return opened bottles and get your money back. I think this indicates that a company has confidence in their product that it works.

Keep in mind that Hoodia Gordonii alone provides appetite suppression but not fat burning. Cha de Bugre is a fat burner but not as good as hoodia with appetite suppression. There are also brands that mix Cha de Bugre with Hoodia Gordonii and other weight loss herbs like Green Tea that can increase both fat burning and appetite suppression.

I have written a lot of articles on Hoodia. Just search Yahoo or Google under my name “Andrew Aitaken” to find them.

Remember, you should always consult your physician before taking any diet pill or weight loss supplement.

Is it ok to use a fiber supplement when i'm not getting enough in my daily diet?

We Answered:

On the understanding that it is clearly better if you got your fibre from a natural food source and that supplements are just that, supplements, not replacements, yes go ahead. A fibre supplement will not do you any harm.

See if it makes a difference to you and if it does perhaps take that as a cue to make new efforts to include some more fibre in your normal diet.

Barbara Said:

Is taking a daily fiber supplement the same as taking laxatives if you already have a high-fiber diet?

We Answered:

If you take a fiber supplement on top of a high fiber diet it tends to be over kill and it will work as a laxative. But instead of making you "regular" it will cause diarrhea and flatulence.

If you just started your high fiber diet you may go through a phase where you feel/are constipated. This is normal, your body just needs time to adjust and in no time you will feel better.

You need to be very careful. You are treading the line. A high fiber diet is fine, but remember too much of a good thing is always bad. The key is moderation. Misus of those suipplements can laed you stright into Anoerexia.
