Insulin stores the carbohydrates very quickly which includes into the fat cells as well.
Not only that, insulin is responsible for activating lipoprotein lipase, which an enzyme that acts as a roadblock for fat released from the fat cells. Insulin also inhibits an enzyme called hormone sensitive lipase, which is an enzyme that is responsible for metabolizing stored fats."

How Hoodia Diet Pills Work
Before you understand that, however, you must first know what hoodia is. It is a cactus-like plant that grows mainly in the semi-deserts of Botswana, Angola, South Africa and Namibia. Hoodia has become immensely popular in the last few years mainly due to its weight loss properties.
It seems like there will always be a high demand for diet pills. However, after a ban was slapped on the herb Ephedra, there was a greater push for a new diet pill.
The rise in the popularity of hoodia stems from the claim that many of the Bushmen of the Kalahari Desert relied on this plant for thousands of years to keep hunger and thirst at bay during their long hunting trips. It was thought that they cut off the stems of these plants and ate them even though it was bitter tasting.
