Hoodia diet pills are famous for being an extremely easy way to suppress hunger and appetite, however, many dieters are all asking the same question: what is the right dosage to take? Seeing as hoodia pills are unregulated and can be bought over the counter from many stores, there is no "official" dose, which leads to confusion among dieters.

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.

Even though diet pills which contain 100% hoodia gordonii are safe, there are some people who should consult their doctor before taking it, or before taking any diet supplements for that matter. These people are women who are pregnant or nursing, anyone taking any kind of medication, children under 18 years of age, and anyone with an existing health condition.

The easiest way to find the correct hoodia dosage for you is to follow the instructions printed on the product label. Reputable companies will always suggest a steady dose of between 800-1,500mg of hoodia, which is about 1 or 2 capsules per day for the first 7 days or so. They will usually then recommend that you slowly increase your dosage until you reach the maximum daily amount, which is typically 4,500mg per day, so that you can find the amount that works best for you.

When you are taking hoodia gordonii diet pills, they may also decrease your thirst along with your appetite. You should always drink plenty of water when you are supplementing with them. That is why the product labels always say to drink 8-10 ounces of water when you take your capsules. People who are dieting should be drinking at least eight glasses of water a day anyway!

Something to remember is that hoodia gordonii is not going to be an effective way to suppress the appetite for everyone. Some people simply do not respond to it at all. If you are taking the upper limits of hoodia per day, but are having little or no noticeable difference in your appetite after a few weeks, then hoodia capsules are probably not going to work for you.
