Caralluma (Botanical name – Caralluma Fimbriata) is a succulent plant (cactus) from India. In India Caralluma grows wild and is often used as a border in gardens and as a roadside shrub. Caralluma is also found in the wild in Africa, Saudi Arabia, Canary Islands, Afghanistan, and Southern Europe. Traditionally, Indian tribes used to chew chunks of Caralluma plant to keep from being hungry during a long hunt. Caralluma is also consumed in India as vegetable with spices Or made in to chutney or pickles. Nowadays the extract derived from the plant is used to decrease appetite for weight loss. It is also used to quench thirst and to increase endurance. Although not fully characterized, Caralluma fimbriata is believed to work via active bio molecules called “pregnane glycosides” that may down-regulate both ghrelin synthesis in the stomach and neuropeptide-Y in the hypothalamus, thereby resulting in appetite suppression.
