Herb: HOODIA GORDONII
Botanical name: Hoodia gordonii
Origin: S. Africa
Therapeutic actions: Appetite suppressant.
Drug interactions: No known drug interactions.
Description: Hoodia gordonii looks like a cactus, but it's actually a succulent plant from the Kalahari Desert in
South Africa. Bushmen from the area have been using hoodia for centuries to help ward off hunger during long
trips in the desert. Hoodia gordonii is entirely natural -- not a drug. Only the gordonii variation of hoodia has
appetite suppressant abilities. Hoodia tricks the brain into thinking you've eaten, and makes you feel full. Hoodia
may work right away, or may take several weeks. Key results of hoodia reported include a reduced interest in food,
delay in the time after eating before hunger sets in again, feeling full more quickly, and a general feeling of well-
being. Hoodia gordonii is not a stimulant, and has no known side effects.
