Hoodia Gordonii has been shown to work as an appetite suppressant by accessing the part of the brain that controls  hunger.  The hypothalamus receives this signal and believes that food has been received, causing it to turn off its hunger receptors and allows you to continue without combating the incessant thoughts of food that plague you day in and day out. The chemicals in Hoodia in effect fool your brain into thinking you are no longer hungry.
