Ever since Britney Spears was snapped sucking a Hoodia lollipop last month to help her get back into shape, the African herbal appetite suppressant, Hoodia, has been on everyone’s lips. Hoodia tricks the brain into thinking the stomach is full, reducing the desire to snack or overeat and is being hailed by some major players as the solution to the world’s obesity crisis. Hoodia Mints are now available in the UK from Holland & Barrett. Hoodia is a botanical appetite suppressant that helps those who help themselves, (but not to seconds). Sucking a Hoodia mint on the way to work will give you the will-power to resist that muffin with your latte, a mid-morning mint will stave off hunger pangs until lunch to avoid snacking, one eaten half an hour before a meal will reduce the amount you eat before you feel full, or a mint before a party could mean you don’t eat all those diet-busting peanuts. Hoodia comes from Hoodia Gordonii, an endangered cactus growing wild in the Kalahari desert which has been chewed for centuries by the San bushmen to stave off hunger during long hunting trips into remote areas where there was no food. Since it’s ‘discovery’ only a few years ago, demand for the plant which only grows wild, has rocketed. The protective South African government, always quick to spot a goldmine, has imposed controls and licences surrounding the endangered cactus until it can be farmed economically, meaning that until 2011, only companies in production prior to 2004 are allowed to sell a limited amount of Hoodia products. So until 2011, Hoodia will remain a word of mouth secret. As an effective appetite suppressant, which is not a stimulant, Hoodia is a safe solution for those suffering from any conditions related to being overweight.
