To a lesser extent it is even available in other citrus fruits and essential oils. Consuming 6, 7 dihydroxybergamottin supplements have an affect on the metabolism of various pharmaceutical drugs. 6, 7 Dihydroxybergamottin inhibits isforms of cytochrome P450 enzyme, especially CYP3A4. It is because of this feature that the enzyme prevents oxidative metabolism of some drugs, which results in accumulation of the drug in the bloodstream.

Hoodia Gordonii, which although popular, has no published randomized controlled trials in humans to show hoodia is safe or effective in pill form. One study published in the September 2004 issue of Brain Research found that injections of p57 (The Active ingredient in Raw, Fresh Cut Hoodia, not dried) into the appetite center of rat brains resulted in altered levels of ATP, an energy molecule that may affect hunger. The animals receiving the P57 injections also ate less than rats that received placebo injections. However, this was an animal study and INJECTIONS IN THE BRAIN are very different from oral consumption, so it cannot be used to show that oral hoodia can suppress appetite in humans. Hoodia Gordonii is a succulent (a cactus of the aloe family) found in the Kalahari desert of South Africa. Most Hoodia Gordonii products contain very little, if any of the active ingredient needed to suppress hunger. Real Hoodia is very rare and is even an endangered plant. Most importantly, Hoodia has only demonstrated any effect in fresh, raw pieces of the plant. The effectiveness of powdered Hoodia has yet to be shown and may actually increase hunger. It's main use is as a cheap alternative to the more expensive weight loss herbs, which are the only alternative left after the banning of ephedra. Most supplement manufacturers can not use the more expensive weight loss herbs because it will result in a product that would be too expensive to compete with other more popular inexpensive diet supplements.

N-Methyl-B-Phenylethylamine- B- Phenylethylamine is an amine found in trace amounts in brain tissue in mammals. It can be synthesised by the body through enzymatic decarboxylation of phenylalanine, an amino acid. B-Phenylehtylamine is also found in high concentrations in plants and thus individuals tend to have a high intake of this compound as part of their diet, being a part of chocolate and the oil of bitter almonds. Apart from the diet, it can also be taken as a medicine or a dietary supplement. Regardless of how it is consumed, B-Phenylethylamine is most commonly associated with the pleasure centres of the brain and is considered to be a ‘feel good’ hormone. Recently newer forms of B-Phenylethylamine like N-Methyl-B-Phenylethylamine have been used in dietary supplements. These have been suggested to be more resistant to degradation and thus offer a longer lasting effect of the compound. N-Methyl-B-Phenylethylamine has also been reported to have a better ability of crossing the blood brain barrier, thus being more effective.

By stimulating norepinehrine, R-Beta-Methylphenylethylamine HCL produces effects like appetite suppression, increase in energy and through the combination of these two effects, there is an overall result of weight loss.

The combination of all leads to burning more calories. Studies have stated that synephrine stimulates fat metabolism without the usual negative cardiovascular side effects.
