For centuries, people in India have staved off hunger by eating the cactus Caralluma fimbriata, a plant known to traditional Ayurvedic practitioners. Modern research shows that the glycosidic compounds of the plant may amplify the satiety messages in the brain's hypothalamus, resulting in a feeling of fullness. Slenderluma is a capsule containing an extract of this popular succulent. In conjunction with a healthy diet and exercise plan, Slenderluma may ward off hunger pangs, helping people maintain a healthy weight.
