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.
