One of the stumbling blocks in the South African hoodia gordonii research is that it is very difficult to make a synthetic version of the active ingredient.  If the chemical can’t be duplicated in a lab, the only alternative is to grow large plantations of South African hoodia gordonii in the Kalahari Desert.  These plantations have already been started, but South African hoodia gordonii has never been grown as a crop before.  A faster growing variety is been used on the plantations.

The popularity of South African hoodia gordonii is due to two effects.  First, it suppresses the appetite without hunger pangs.  Second, it holds the promise of easy weight loss.  With obesity running rampant in many parts of the world, it is not known if South African hoodia gordonii can be grown fast enough to satisfy the demand.
