What is Hoodia Gordonii?

Hoodia or pronounced as HOO-dee-ah is nothing but a cactus-like plant that grows primarily in the semi-deserts of South Africa, Botswana, Namibia, and Angola. This heavily marketed for weight loss and has become immensely popular. There is an immense demand for hoodia and hoodia diet pills, after the ban on the herb ephedra, the market were particularly ripe for the next new diet pill.

Majority of hoodia's popularity stems from claims that the San Bushmen of the Kalahari desert relied on hoodia for thousands of years to ward off hunger and thirst during long hunting trips. Hoodia gordonii mainly grows in clumps of green upright stems and it is mainly called a cactus because it resembles one, hoodia is actually a succulent plant.

You will be amazed to know that it takes about five years before hoodia gordonii's pale purple flowers appear and the plant can be harvested. Hoodia gordonii is now even sold in capsule, powder, liquid, or tea form in health food stores and on the Internet. Hoodia is also found in the popular diet pill Trimspa.

The popularity of hoodia gordonii as an appetite suppressant is continuing to skyrocket. So far, the results and responses are mixed. Some people are reporting that hoodia does absolutely nothing for them. However, others say it completely stopped their appetite, and they are well on their way to weight loss. Moreover, the more common response is that hoodia takes the edge off appetite, but doesn't take it away completely. You still have to exercise discipline to lose weight while taking hoodia.

In terms of its overall appetite-suppressing potential and success, hoodia is just one of many health and diet products coming down the line. Hoodia does help suppress your appetite, but there are many caveats, as you'll see below.

• The dosage of hoodia is necessary to truly suppress your appetite was far, far larger than the dosages claimed by many websites selling hoodia.

• Hoodia does not thwart the blood sugar drops that occur following the consumption of refined carbohydrates like soft drinks, cookies, white bread, white rice and other simple carbohydrates.

• Hoodia in no way stops your body from feeling intense hunger after a heavy workout.

• Hoodia doesn't cause your body to lose its mind. Your muscles still scream out for calories.
