green tea and hoodia

I bought some green tea with hoodia just so i would not pick in between meals, it has 50mg of caffine in each pill, your suppose to take 2 pills, I was wondering what the caffine does to us?

My doctor doesn't want us to have it at all.  He says that in addition to being a diuretic it is an appitite stimulant but worse it blocks absorbtion of Calcium.  Now he may just not want us to drink it, I don't know but it was enough to keep me off the stuff for over a year..

I tried this once when I was hungry in the afternoon. It actually made me more hungry. Cut the carbs, up the protien. Sounds simple enough but it will cure your hunger.

Caffeine doesn't do anything bad to me.  My plan includes coffee every day if I want it... and I do!  I'd be more worried about the hoodia if I were you.  There is no published scientific evidence that Hoodia works as an appetite suppressant in humans. The safety and/or effectiveness of Hoodia Gordonii as a dietary supplement must thus be considered as unsubstantiated.

I bought those same pills,,and take em every day, have for a couple months, They do help with the appetite and energy,,and I drink coffee during the day too. It really helped stop the grazing... To each his own I guess,,, Blessings Betsy
