African Hoodia Gordonii

African Hoodia Gordonii is found in the Kalahari Desert. It has been hunted for over 100,000 years by the Bushmen. They would go out on long hunting trips and use this to chew on to help them reduce their hunger and increase their energy for the hunt. The plant itself is known as Hoodia. By chewing Hoodia, it is known that the San were able to go for days with no food and remain strong and energetic for things they do.

Hoodia is very bitter tasting. It is a plant that looks like a cactus. It can be up to over 6 feet tall. It was not until the 1960s that Hoodia was first reseached as an appetite suppressant. It took more than 30 years for the South African labs to isolate the specific aspect of the plant to have the appetite suppressing ingredient. The ingredient itself was named P57.

Is African Hoodia Gordonii a Miracle?

Phytopharm was the first clinic to have a study that showed people who were obese taking P57 were able to eat 1,000 calories less each day with no side effects documented. It was documented that if you were to take P57 that the desire to have to eat would be extremely reduced. This allowed P57 to be looked at as a diet drug. Pfizer then purchased the rights of Phytopharm where they spend over $32 million to help develop P57 as well as market P57 as a diet drug or pills. Pfizer does not have a pill that is simply hoodia. They implement the ingredient of Hoodia into different diet drugs or pills that they have to enhance the effects the original drug had.

For an overview, hoodia is a plant that was used by the Bushmen of South Africa to help suppress their hunger during long hunting periods. P57 is the ingrediant in Hoodia that reduces your appitite. P57 has been tested to show that it can reduce any single person's caloric intake over 1,000 calories each day. P57 does not have the ability to be synthesized due to cost and therefore can not easily become a drug. Hoodia Gordonii must be grown in the Kalahari desert in order to have any type of suppressant for appetite. To get pure African Hoodia Gordonii supplements directly from the Kalahari Desers is not easy.
