I was recently asked if herbal Hoodia affected fertility. In all honesty I had no idea so I decided to research Hoodia Gordonii to find out what the side effects are.

Before I go into the side effects of Hoodia let’s take a look and see why it has taken off as the new diet pill everyone wants.

Hoodia Gordonii:

Other Names: xhooba, ikhoba, Ghaap, South African desert cactus

Hoodia is a cactus like plant found in the semi-desert areas of South Africa, Botswana, Namibia, and Angola.

It has been used for thousands of years by natives in the Kalahari desert who relied on it to ward off hunger and thirst during long hunting trips.

Needless to say that once people around the world caught on to this it rapidly rose to ascension as a new weight loss supplement. So much so that it has garnered the attention of pharmaceutical companies who are currently studying the chemical compound p57 found in it for future diet pills.

Hoodia Gordonii Side Effects:

So does herbal hoodia affect fertility?

I haven’t been able to find a legitimate source saying it does which leads me to believe nobody knows. With that said what are some of the side effects of this new weight loss supplement?

So far the side effects are relatively unknown. A few researchers studying it for pharmaceutical purposes believe that it may negatively affect the liver. Considering that there haven’t been any long term studies on the side effects, I would suggest caution if you have any health problems.

With any diet pill I always recommend not taking it if you are pregnant or nursing, a child, or someone with liver, kidney, or heart disease.

Where to buy Hoodia Gordonii?

Scam Alert:

You need to be aware that there are many scams at the moment for herbal hoodia diet pills. You should only buy from trusted sources. A lot of companies claim to have Hoodia in it but the only type that works is Hoodia Gordonii.
