Hoodia Scam Hoodia Gordonii is a natural appetite suppressant. Is the hoodia you buy online real or a scam?

We’ve been waiting patiently for Phytopharm, the only company that can legally market genuine hoodia gordonii, to offer a viable product to the public. As reported earlier, they will do this in a deal with Unilever and the products were expected to be available sometime this year. It appears we won’t see the product this year after all. Daryl Rees, chief executive officer of Phytopharm, says hoodia gordonii will probably be added to Slim-Fast, a diet drink sold by Unilever, and be on the market in 2009.

Part of the delay may be attributed to the lack of sufficient amounts of hoodia gordonii. The plant is rare and must be cultivated in large quantities for production. Supply must meet demand, which is currently not the case.
