Would you be skeptical of such claims, and think this was yet another diet scam designed to lighten wallets instead of body fat?

All the volunteers could do all day was read papers, watch television, and eat.
Half were given Hoodia, half placebo. Fifteen days later, the Hoodia group had reduced their calorie intake by 1000 a day.
