Caralluma Fimbriata. Almost no one has even heard of it and those who have may be asking just what the heck it is. The first thought for most people is just another fad diet gimmick. But is it? Could it be pure gold in the world of weight loss? Let's find out.

Caralluma, which is a succulent, is a not so well known member of the cactus family. It grows profusely in India and the surrounding areas but can be found as far north as Afghanistan.

The locals in most regions of India have eaten Caralluma as a vegetable for hundreds of years if not longer. The green leafy parts of the plant are most usually and eaten with a little salt. It can be eaten cooked or raw. Among other things, it is also made into a variety of pickles and different chutney's.

For generations the local people found this vegetable seemed to contain certain properties when eaten. Not only did it as an appetite and diet suppressant but also seemed to quench their thirst while boosting their energy levels. Because of this it became wildly popular as both a "hunting and famine food" sustaining the people when food stuffs became scarce.

Of course, modern science has now caught up with all the benefits of Caralluma Fimbriata and the new arrival of this succulent cactus is just now becoming very popular for not only being able to suppress your appetite and boost your endurance but it also appears to lower blood sugar.

Research has now discovered that extracts of Caralluma Fimbriata appear to act on certain hunger centers in the brain itself thereby causing a reduction in the feelings of hunger. Unlike most appetite suppressants on the market today, Caralluma does not seem to have any type of affect on the neurotransmitters within these hunger centers.

More recently, studies are finding that pregnane glycoside, an important extract of Caralluma seems to be not only an effective appetite suppressant but also a major player in the reduction of BMI, fat, blood glucose, blood pressure and a noticeable reduction in waste and hip circumferences as well.

Other benefits include increase in lean body mass, enhancement in the ratio of blood HDL/LDL, improvement in capillary health, hearing, memory function, joint inflammation and others.

What Caralluma Fimbriata is not is that it is not artificial and is completely natural. There are no chemicals or preservatives needed with this supplement which can interfere with your body's natural diet processes.

In using Caralluma, there have never been any known toxicity or adverse reactions associated with it's use. There have been extensive studies recently undertaken to determine the safety factors in human consumption. Of course, it has been eaten as an ordinary vegetable for centuries which more than bears these facts out.

Caralluma is just now coming onto center stage of the dieting world and I am sure you will be hearing much more about this future giant. Not only do I expect it to overtake Hoodia, which appears to be less effective and more expensive but also most other weight supplements which seems to be only minimally effective.
