They are stem succulents that can reach up to 1 m high and present exuberant flowers, often with flesh colour and strong smell.

Common names include "Bushmans Hat" and "Queen of the Namib".

Hoodia Slim, Maximum Weight Loss Support!

The medicinal use of Hoodia is long known by the indigenous populations of Southern Africa (Bushman), who infrequently use these plants for treating indigestion and small infections. Recently nutritional supplement companies have marketed Hoodia extracts can be taken to lower blood pressure and reduce the appetite.

However only a single scientific study has been done, and there have been no broad scientific double-blind trials performed to investigate the safety of Hoodia as a nutritional supplement. The press coverage and heavy marketing of nutritional supplement companies have created such a demand for Hoodia plants that a protected status was imposed in several countries like Namibia. Hoodia extracts are marketed as "weight-loss pills".

The native Bushmans name for this plant is Xshoba.

Hoodias are also grown as garden plants. The source of this article is Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. The text of this article is licensed under the GFDL
