As title says, extract of caralluma fimbriata reduces hunger and it seems that it aids in losing fat storages- altough I have no supportive evidence, I beleive that (at least one of mechnism) it happens because caralluma fimbriata can raise leptin levels.
That is a really great thing as it means that possibly it can raise our resting metabolic rate which will also improve our testosterone metabolism and we will have more benefits from our testosterone levels regardless if we are on TRT, naturaly or using booster.


Some nice studies:

Effect of Caralluma fimbriata extract on appetite, ... [Appetite. 2007] - PubMed - NCBI (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17097761)

"Waist circumference and hunger levels over the observation period showed a significant decline in the experimental group when compared to the placebo group."

"Caralluma extract appears to suppress appetite, and reduce waist circumference when compared to placebo over a 2 month period."

CONCLUSION:

Supplementation with C. fimbriata extract whilst controlling overall dietary intake and physical activity may potentially play a role in curbing central obesity, the key component of metabolic syndrome. Controlling dietary intake and exercise improved body weight and favourably influenced the metabolic risk profile.

"By week 9, the experimental group had lost 5.7 cm, compared to only 2.8 cm loss in the placebo group (Difference: -2.890; 95% CI; -5.802 to 0.023). Post intervention, the experimental group had lost 6.5 cm compared to 2.6 cm loss in the placebo group (Difference: -3.847; 95% CI; -7.466 to 0.228). Waist to hip ratio (WHR) also improved significantly after 12 weeks intervention in the experimental group, with a total reduction of 0.03 being recorded compared to 0.01 increase in the placebo group"
