Hoodia Gordonii Cactus

Hoodia Gordonii is a plant native to Southern Africa, being found most commonly in the Kalahari desert. It is a member of the succulent family, and is extremely hard to cultivate, taking years to mature.

The Hoodia Gordonii is a succulent (not a cactus) belonging to the Apocynaceae family. Hoodia is also known for its other south african name Xhoba.

Hoodia gordonii is just a variety of the Hoodia genus, and is the only one that contains a natural active ingredient, P57, which has only recently been identified. The P57 works as an appetite suppressant.
