BLG Health -What Is Hoodia Gordonii

On November 21, 2004 CBS correspondent, Lesley
Stahl reported on 60 Minutes that a strange little plant,
Hoodia Gordonii, "... is a natural substance that
literallytakes your appetite away." According to CBS,
"Scientists say that it fools the brain by making you
think you're full, even if you've eaten just a morsel."

Now, word of this amazing plant is spreading like
wildfire across the country and taking the consumer
market by storm. Many are calling the discovery of
Hoodia Gordonii  the breakthrough of the decade.

 If you missed the 60 Minutes program, the program
described Hoodia as a small, succulent plant that
grows only in the remote region of the South African
Kalahari Desert. There, the indigenous San Bushmen
have eaten the plan for centuries, to stave off hunger
during their long and arduous hunting trips.

This small plant looks like a dill pickle with spines on
it It grows slowly in its harsh environment, and takes
four or five years, or more, before it is ready to
harvest.

 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.

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. 
They only allow certain amounts to leave the
country in order to protect the plant in its natural
habitat.

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.
