EMAIL A FRIEND Instead of our own opinion, the best way to answer this question is to have you read what one of the major national news service has to say about Hoodia:
*Quote from 2nd. BBC News story: "South Africa's indigenous San peoples have signed a deal ensuring they will profit from a diet drug being developed from a plant they have used for generations."
Convinced already?
Not quite...
Ok...;o) so, the next question is:
Will the Hoodia Gordonii help you control appetite?
The molecule that has been linked to the appetite suppressing abilities of Hoodia Gordonii, now called P.57, appears to affect both humans and animals. One study showed a decrease in appetite by 30-40%. There are documented personal experiences showing the immediate effects of eating Hoodia Gordonii.
African bushmen used Hoodia Gordonii to stave off hunger for long trips
Hoodia Gordonii is an African cactus that grows naturally only in the Kalahari desert. For thousands of years the bushmen of this region have eaten Hoodia Gordonii with no apparent ill side effects, like the racing heart experience of Ephedra or other supplements.

Although the West is just discovering hoodia, the Bushmen of the Kalahari have been eating it for a very long time. After all, they have been living off the land in southern Africa for more than 100,000 years.
Consumers Beware of Marketplace Tactics!
Each manufacturers website is trying to convince you that their product is the best, or is the only real Hoodia. The only active ingredient identified so far is a steroidal glycoside that has been called "p57". Currently, only hoodia gordonii is thought to contain p57. There are over 20 species of Hoodia plants. Only the Hoodia Gordonii species has been shown to suppress appetite. So, the executives at Bad Supplements, Inc. can use one of the 19 other species of Hoodia and still say "Contains 100% Hoodia". While that quote is technically true, it does not have the Hoodia Gordonii that will help with weight loss. Be advise, always verify before buying and ask questions if you have any doubts about the purety and quality of the weight loss product offered to you.
