On November 21, 2004 CBS correspondent, Lesley Stahl reported on 60 Minutes that a strange little plant, Hoodia Gordonii, “... is a natural substance that literally takes your appetite away.” According to CBS, “Scientists say that it fools the brain by making you think you’re full, even if you’ve eaten just a morsel.”
Now, word of this amazing plant is spreading like wildfire across the country and taking the consumer market by storm. Many are calling the discovery of Hoodia Gordonii the breakthrough of the decade.
IF ONLY YOU WEREN'T SO DARNED HUNGRY ALL THE TIME...
It’s true that you eat for a lot of different reasons, but feeling hungry can drive you to distraction. You know you should stick to your diet (what ever the current one is), and you know when you’re eating more than you need. But, what can you do about always feeling hungry? It’s just not fair.
Hoodia Gordonii Plus might just be the answer you’re looking for. Combined with a sensible food program, exercise routine, and drinking plenty of water, the ingredients in Hoodia Gordonii Plus will help you to regain your slim body easier and faster.
If you weren’t hungry all the time, you wouldn’t be tempted to snack between meals. You could easily say “No,” to second helpings. You would find it easy to push away from the table feeling satisfied.
A great deal of research is being conducted into the effects of satiety (the feeling of being full) on overeating. Hormones circulating through the body convey messages to the brain to indicate hunger of “fullness.”
WHAT IS HOODIA GORDONII?
If you missed the 60 Minutes program, the program described Hoodia as a small, succulent plant that grows only in the remote region of the South African Kalahari Desert. There, the indigenous San Bushmen have eaten the plan for centuries, to stave off hunger during their long and arduous hunting trips.
This small plant looks like a dill pickle with spines on it. It grows slowly in its harsh environment, and takes four or five years, or more, before it is ready to harvest.
The Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) in South Africa, joined forces with the South African San Council. They agreed to work together on the usage of indigenous plants for the benefit of both parties. They also committed themselves to the conservation of natural resources.
Because of tremendous worldwide demand for the Hoodia plant, it has become endangered by over-harvesting. Now, certification is required to prove that the product is authentic Hoodia Gordonii.
Real Hoodia Gordonii only grows in the semi-arid desert of South Africa – not in China, or Mexico, or the United States. With Hoodia Gordonii Plus you can be assured of getting the real, organic Hoodia ingredient. That’s because our Hoodia is approved by the Western Cape Conservation Authority of South Africa, and is certified to be 100% authentic.

How it Works
The Story of Hoodia Gordonii
Hoodia gordonii (pronounced HOO-dee-ah) is also called hoodia, xhooba, khoba, Ghaap, hoodia cactus, and South African desert cactus. It’s actually not a true cactus at all, but rather is a succulent with sharp spines, that resembles a cactus.
Hoodia is causing quite a stir for its ability to suppress appetite, thereby promoting weight loss. The CBS television news program, 60 Minutes, and the British network, BBC have already featured stories about Hoodia.
Hoodia Gordonii can only be found in the semi-arid deserts of South Africa, Botswana, Namibia, and Angola. Hoodia grows in clumps of green upright stalks.
It takes about five years, or more, before Hoodia’s pale purple flowers appear. After that time the plant can be eaten. Although there are at least 40 known varieties of Hoodia, only the Gordonii species is believed to contain the natural appetite suppressant.
Modern scientists only recently discovered Hoodia, however the San peoples, or Bushmen, have been eating it for centuries. These indigenous people, who live off the land, traditionally cut off part of the stem and eat it to stave off hunger and thirst during their arduous hunting trips across the desert. They also eat it for various medical issues, but, to date, no modern research has been done on those uses.
In 1937, a Dutch anthropologist studying the San people noted that they used Hoodia to suppress appetite. But it wasn’t until 1963, when scientists at the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR), South Africa’s national laboratory, began studying Hoodia. Initial results were promising – lab animals lost weight after eating Hoodia Gordonii.
After 30 years of research, the South African scientists at CSIR isolated the active ingredient in Hoodia, and obtained a patent on the molecule in 1995. It is a steroidal glycoside, which they named P57. The South African government then licensed the patent to a British firm named Phytopharm.
Then, Phytopharm licensed the patent to American drug giant, Pfizer. The intent was to use the molecule, P57, as a base, to mass-create an artificial drug to meet the demands of millions of people. After three years of investigation, Pfizer pulled out of the deal, saying it would be too expensive to ever bring to market.
In December of 2004, Phytopharm licensed to Unilever, who has promised to bring this man-made drug to market.
It remains to be seen if a weight loss drug utilizing P57 will ever be realized.
In the meantime, while you wait and wait for the artificial product, Hoodia Gordonii Plus, a whole plant formula, is available right now. You can order this very minute, and become friends again with your reflection in a full-length mirror.
Ingredients
Ingredients in our Hoodia Gordonii formula
As you read the following list of ingredients in Hoodia Gordonii Plus, you’ll notice two things: We’ve kept it simple, and we’ve kept it natural. But most important, we’ve made it effective.
Hoodia Gordonii
This is a small, succulent plant that grows wild only in the semi-arid Kalahari Desert of South Africa. The San peoples, or Bushmen, who‘ve lived in that area for centuries, have traditionally eaten the plant to prevent hunger and thirst on long hunting trips. For generations, only the San people knew of Hoodia’s marvelous properties.
There are no known side effects. In fact, Tom Mangold, a BBC News correspondent, reported after eating Hoodia from the Kalahari Desert in May of 2003, “...The plant is said to have a feel-good, almost aphrodisiac quality, and I have to say we felt good, but more significantly, we did not even think about food.”
Hoodia Gordonii is one more of nature’s many gifts to people in need.
Magnesium
According to the Office of Dietary Supplements, “Magnesium is the fourth most abundant mineral in the body and is essential to good health” It is found in nature in green vegetables, legumes, nuts and seeds. Also, whole, unrefined grains are a good source. Water is also a good source, if it’s “hard” water. “Soft” water does not contain as many minerals.
Magnesium is necessary for more than 300 biochemical reactions in the body, such as normal muscle and nerve function, steady heart rhythm, a healthy immune system, and strong bones.
Magnesium deficiency may occur in people who are taking antibiotics, diuretics, and certain medications for cancer. Diabetics are also at risk, especially those who don’t control their condition carefully. Alcoholics and older adults (who are likely to be taking drugs) should be especially aware of their need for magnesium.
Garcinia Cambogia Extract
This is an extract from the fruit and rind of a tree that grows in the evergreen forests of India and Thailand. It has been used in Ayurvedic practices for many years. The fruit contains 30% acid, similar to citrus fruits. In Southeast Asia, it is considered a helpful dietary supplement during weight management and increased energy.
Green Tea Extract
Green tea has been consumed in Asia for thousands of years. As a popular beverage, it has many benefits for the body. It is widely known as an antioxidant, and helps relieve the body of toxins. It does not raise the heart rate, and is, in fact quite soothing.
Green tea increases energy levels naturally. Some people thought the increase in energy was due to caffeine, but research has shown this isn’t the case. As a whole food, rather than a manufactured drug, the body can “reorganize” the benefits of Green Tea, and quickly feels more energetic.
Other ingredients
Hoodia Gordonii Plus does not contain wheat, peanuts, shellfish, or dairy products, which can be allergens for some people.
Side effects
To our knowledge, there are no known side effects to any of the ingredients in Hoodia Gordonii Plus. We urge you to check with your qualified health professional before taking any dietary supplement.
We also urge you to eat sensibly. When you experience a beneficial loss of appetite, make sure you are also getting a full spectrum of vitamins and minerals through the foods you eat or, with nutritional supplementation.
Start on your Hoodia Gordonii Plus Program today, and you’ll soon see the real you reflected in your mirror.
Certification
Our Hoodia Gordonii is Completely Certified
When the world heard the news about a humble little succulent called Hoodia Gordonii being an appetite suppressant, the stampede was on. People all over the world wanted some.
Obesity has become a worldwide epidemic. According to the World Health Organization, over 300 million people, worldwide, are obese. The small plant seemed like a miracle answer to a growing problem.
Real Hoodia Gordonii is an endangered species plant. Consequently, it is RARE AND VERY EXPENSIVE. In fact, the government of South Africa will not allow export of Hoodia without proper documentation. And they only allow certain amounts to leave the country in order to protect the plant in its natural habitat.
Two Certificates are Required
There are two certified documents required to prove the authenticity of pure South African Hoodia.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture issues the first. It is called Convention in International Trade of Endangered Species (C.I.T.E.S.) Certificate. This covers the U.S. inspection to ensure the product is clean of weeds and pests, and to verify that the product is, in fact, Hoodia Gordonii.
The second is the Protected Plant Permit. This permit is only issued when the South African government agrees to allow the product to be shipped out of South Africa to a few selected buyers.
We can state, with certainty, that the Hoodia Gordonii used in Hoodia Gordonii Plus is completely certified. Our Hoodia is documented to be the true plant used by the San peoples in South Africa. We’re proud to display our Certificates which prove its’ authenticity.
This documentation is important to you because there are so many “hoodia” products on the market now, which are not the 100% pure plant.
There are over 40 species of Hoodia, and the Gordonii species is the only one shown to have appetite suppression qualities. The Kalahari Desert of southern Africa is the only place in the world where this special plant will grow. It does not grow in the deserts of Mexico, or China, or the Middle East, or even in New Mexico.
When searching for a Hoodia supplement, make sure the manufacturer can document the source of the ingredient. Be wary of products called “hoodia,” which are actually another species of Hoodia that may only have weak or altered benefits.
The Limited Supply is a Real Concern
Because of the scarcity of the true Hoodia Gordonii supply, we urge you to order right away. We do have a sufficient supply at this time, but we cannot guarantee for how long. The South African government could change its mind at any time, the crop could fail, or it could become prohibitively expensive.
Q: Is the Hoodia gordonii plus diet pill safe?
The hoodia gordonii plus pill contains 100% natural ingredients and is 100% safe to use.
Q: How does the Hoodia gordonii diet pill work? The Hoodia gordonii plant contains an active ingredient that fools your brain into believing that you have had enough to eat. All you need to do is take your pill 20-30 minutes before your meal. Everyone is different and the effects of the Hoodia diet pill may take up to 14 days to work.
Pfizer, who developed Viagra, has invested approximately $21 million for the right to develop the active ingredient, P57 which mimics the effects that glucose (ten thousand times as active as glucose) has on the brain. This mimicking effect of the active ingredient in Hoodia is what fools the brain into believing that it is full and no more food is required.
Q: How fast will I lose weight with the Hoodia Diet Pill? Studies done in Leicester, England have shown that people using the Hoodia gordonii diet pill reduce their calorie intake by up to 1000 calories a day and when you put that into pounds lost it may equate up to 4-6 pounds a week.
Q: Are you sure the Hoodia in your diet pill is pure? Hoodia gordonii is one of many species in the Hoodia genus and it takes a trained botanist or San collector to be able to distinguish species without looking at the flower. Without the flower Hoodia gordonii is difficult to distinguish from other species and unscrupulous collectors will not wait for their flowering period.
Hoodia gordonii is a CITES (Convention of Illicit Trade of Endangered Species) protected succulent which means that the collecting of Hoodia in the wild is illegal without a permit (which is very difficult to obtain from the South African government).
The Hoodia gordonii in the approved diet pills on this site will carry their CITES export permit from and have proof that the raw Hoodia is indeed from a government approved Hoodia grower in South Africa.
Q: How was the Hoodia cactus secret discovered?
The active ingredient, P57, was not discovered by accident. In 1996 the CSIR (Council for Scientific and Industrial Research) was doing research on the food that the local "Bushmen" or San ate.
The CSIR was amazed when they analyzed Hoodia gordonii, the animals they where testing it on did not die or have any side effect except weight loss. It was concluded that the Hoodia gordonii succulent was non-toxic and a natural appetite suppressant. By 1997 the CSIR had isolated the bioactive compound in Hoodia that had the appetite suppressing properties. They obtained a patent and licensed P57, named P57 because it was the 57th product the CSIR had spent funds on, to Phytopharm.
