TV shows which featured this miracle plant showed us people eating fresh plant stem and explaining how they did not feel hungry for many hours. Even San bushmen who ate Hoodia plants on long hunting trips used to have fresh plants.

But, dieters in USA, UK and other countries can not have access to fresh Hoodia Gordonii plants for the following reasons.

1.Hoodia Gordonii is very rare and unique and takes many years to grow before harvesting.

2.Fresh Hoodia Gordonii plants can not be exported from South Africa freely due to legal restrictions on endangered species exports.

3.Hoodia Gordonii grown in countries other than Southern Africa are said to be of inferior quality with very less P57 molecules.

The only way left is to buy diet supplements made using the plant’s aerial stem. Sadly, we can find hundreds of fake Hoodia slimming supplements being sold by greedy merchants on the market nowadays. It is said that, more than 90% of so called Hoodia diet supplements are fake and have no Hoodia Gordonii at all.

Pure hoodia Gordonii supplements are the ones which

1.Have only powdered Hoodia Gordonii aerial stem. No other part of the plant has appetite suppressing molecules.

2.Exported from Southern Africa
