Does it Work? - PureHoodia

nebody tried it....
or have any theories of it....

I have doubts. Currently, genuine hoodia gordonii (the type of hoodia that contains the molecule P57 responsible for appetite suppression) is illegal for export from Africa. There are tons of so-called real hoodia products on the market, but none have been found to contain genuine P57. I guess if they did, then they couldn't sell it because Phytopharm owns the patent to P57 and no one else can sell it as a weight loss product. Also, a major pharmaceutical company, Pfizter, in agreement with Phytopharm spent millions of dollars trying to put hoodia P57 into a pill format that would be effective, but failed and left the project. Unilever then joined with Phytopharm and may have a food product available later this year or next that may be useful but they are still testing it to make sure it's both effective and safe.

It's a long story, but there are a lot of reasons why so-called hoodia products should be avoided. In the meantime, the products that claim to contain hoodia don't actually contain p57. Instead, they contain various other ingredients such as cheap fiber.

When the real thing is finally available, we'll spread the word :) Until then, the only way to get the benefit is to get your hands on a fresh chunk of hoodia gordonii plant and eat it. In fact, they say that's the only way it's been proven to really work - by eating it fresh - and you have to eat a chunk about 4 inches long.

I have done extensive research on this product, and I must say that I find it hard to believe it is not allowed to be shipped out of Africa, when there are certificates of in certain Hoodia products. However I agree there are products that claim they are hoodia authenticity, and if you are not informed then you more then likely will purchase a product and be disappointed. I have been taking hoodia for 2 weeks now, and it is GREAT. I have absolutely NO cravings, when I eat a salad and 1 piece chicken breast, I am satisfied. This really helps at night, when I tend to crave for munchies. I really do recommend it, and you should really give it a try, if you take this, and are conscious of what you eat, you WILL lose. The following are the things you should look for when purchasing hoodia.

1. Make sure that it comes with a certificate, a C.I.T.E certificate to be exact. The UN monitors the exports of hoodia, and issues a certificate to companies that have the rights to export the product.
2. Make sure there are NO OTHER ingredients listed. Just PURE hoodia. Some companies will put 100mg of hoodia, and some caffeine, green tea, fillers, and other ingredients in it. This will not Work, it must be pure Hoodia, the only ingredient should be hoodia, and MAYBE (water and gelatin for the capsule). The hoodia is what makes you lose your appetite and stop cravings, its 100 percent pure and there doesn’t need to be other ingredients.
3. Make sure there are more than 400gr of hoodia per serving (I suggest per tablet be 400mg. Some companies say PUREHOODIA REALHOODIA, and each table will only contain 100mg, which will not do anything!!
4 Make sure is states that it is Hoodia Gordonii, there are other species of hoodia out there, and they just smack a HOODIA sign on the bottle, and it doesn’t contain the scientific whatever it is that suppresses the appetite, only HOODIA GORDONII has this molecule or cell or whatever you wanna call it.
5. Make sure that the hoodia is from the aerial stem, and not from the roots, or leaves of whatever, the good stuff is from the stem of the plant.
6. If it’s cheap ... it’s not the true stuff. Hoodia isn’t cheap, at least right, so if you see it for less than $30.00 then doesn’t purchase it.


There are soooo many ways to scam with hoodia, because you’re not lying by saying it has hoodia, if it is only 100mg, or from a different species of hoodia, or that it be a only a small percentage of the actual tablet... because it is in the product, but not enough to do anything.


I have purchased several products that claim it is Hoodia, and they haven’t worked, I almost gave up on the product, but did some research first. Then I found a true Hoodia product that I have tried and it really does work...100% I take it twice a day, and I feel no hunger, I eat healthy, and have NO Cravings..Even at TOM..Which is usually when I eat chocolate Sundays for breakfast, lunch, diner, and the middle of the night... with hoodia, I don’t want it..... OHHHHH and one more thing, I recently quit smoking, and because of hoodia I’m not going into the kitchen to get food every time I crave a cigarette... anyway I have written a book, but I hope this helps...I wouldn’t hurt my wrist typing all this if it wasn’t true. Try for yourself, just beware of the scams and follow my tips.

Hello, so once again I have been doing some more research, and came up with this. Hoodia is allowed to be exported from Africa, and true hoodia will have a valid CITES certificate. The Cites certificate is a VALID government certificate. I went to the Canadian Governemnet website and found some information. I can not post the link, so if you would like to see the Government documentation on Hoodia i would be more then happy to send it to you via private message, so you can read it for yourself.

Also the P57 is in the Hoodia Gordonii, and if you have the Real stuff it will contain the molecule "p57". for example if you eat a Orance, there will be Vitamin C. That is because oranges contain that vitamin. Hoodia Gordonii contains "p57" if you google p57, or go to wikipedia, you will read for yourself.

Even if one were to obtain "real" Hoodia, there is no clinical proof that oral administration of Hoodia suppresses the appetite or has any weight loss benefit.

Yes there has, wikipedia it.
