Abstract
Two pregnane glycosides were isolated from Hoodia gordonii and Hoodia pilifera. The appetite-suppressant properties of the trisaccharide was determined using a rat model in vivo which showed significant decrease of food consumption over an 8 day period and a body mass decrease when compared to a control sample.
