You'll be lovin' yourself more when you use Hoodia for
controlling your appetite and losing the weight you want. If
what they say about this natural cactus plant is true, this
might just be a miracle for millions of overweight people.
The Hoodia Gordonii plant has been in the news as a miracle
cure for the overweight.
***Here's what the media's saying:
- "Imagine not being hungry all day without feeling
side effects typical of diet pills, like a racing heart
or queasy stomach"...(quote from a CBS correspondent
on 60 minutes)
- "A drug that is going to beat fat. Hoodia will
become a slimming miracle" ...(The Guardian. The
Observer. UK)
- "Bushmen Medicine to deliver breakthrough obesity
remedy" ...(CORDIS RTD-NEWS / European Communities)
- "The discovery of Hoodia's appetite-suppressing
properties. Imagine this: an organic pill that kills the
appetite and attacks obesity. It has no known
side-effects, and contains a molecule that fools your
brain into believing you are full." ... (BBC. UK)
- "Appetite suppressing Hoodia Cactus. They have
long relied on it to survive. 'Hoodia is my food, my
water, my medicine' - One Sanhunter said." ...(KOMO
TV & News)
- "The Magic molecule will save the west from
obesity. San people of South Africa have been using for
generations the Hoodia plant to successfully stop
unbearable hunger and summon limitless energy, without
unwanted side effects, Hoodia stops hunger and also
treats sickness." ...(ABC, USA)
Hoodia Gordonii is a plant that has been used by the
indigenous people of the Kalahari desert as an appetite
suppressant. Its main function was to quell the thirst and
hunger that would affect warriors during long hunting trips.
These warriors even fed their dogs slices of the plant to
keep them from having interest in their food supplies.
African natives still chew the leaves of the plant to stave
off starvation and exhaustion.
The hoodia plant looks like a cactus even though
botanically it is not a cactus, but it is often marketed as
one.
Hoodia's appetite suppressant properties were only
discovered about thirty years ago. The South African Council
was looking for indigenous plants that could be a source of
food. Among the plants screened were Hoodia and experiments
on animals confirmed the plant's ability to cause weight
loss without side effects.
Hoodia gordonii is very rare and is protected by national
conservation laws in South Africa and Namibia. It can only
be collected or grown with a permit. This is why it is so
expensive.
