Hoodia Gordonii Appetite Suppressant

It’s hard to track when precisely South African tribes from Kalahari Desert started using the Hoodia Gordonii cactus to reduce the hunger on long trips. Hoodia plant grows in African deserts. The first plant’s description for Europe came from a Dutch scientist. In 1937 this anthropologist was researching African hunters’ manners and revealed that they usually consume this cactus when having lack of water and food. He marked that Hoodia Gordonii cactus wasn’t very tasty, but it produced the wanted effect of thirst and appetite suppressing, so it can be used as an efficient medicine to lose weight.

The mystery is disclosed!

Before 1963 there had been no researches on Hoodia Gordonii plant processed. Researchers at South African Council for Scientific and Industrial Research revealed that experimental animals that were given Hoodia Gordonii, reduced in weight. In 1990-s South African scientists managed to kindle the interest of a pharmaceutical firm in Britain, Phytopharm. At last, working together, they managed to exclude and recognize the active ingredient in Hoodia Gordonii and it was called ‘P57’. In 1995 ‘P57’ was patented and certificated by Phytofarm. As sources report, Phytopharm needed over 20 million dollars to study the influence of Hoodia Gordonii plant and exactly its molecule ‘P57’ before in 1998 the rights were sub-certificated to Pfizer. One of the main troubles with Hoodia Gordonii diet pills producing is the lack of cactus itself. Hoodia Gordonii cactus needs very high temperatures to grow and approximately four or five years to maturate. Phytopharm collaborates with Unilever and has located a number of Hoodia Gordonii plantations situated in South Africa.
