The world is certainly a curious place with amazing and incredible circumstances happening every day. The hoodia story is one of them.

It is into the developed and industrialized nations where actually we find one of the largest battles the man has embraced to: the fight against obesity. There are about 300 million people worldwide rated as overweight or obese. And the fight is going on, but the final victory is perhaps some years ahead.

By the other side, in the developing world, we find the other largest battle, and it is against the hunger. Accordingly to United Nations agencies, near 852 million people accross the globe are hungry. Here also the battle is going on and the victory is still far away. The largest population with hunger problems is in the Sub Saharan countries in Africa.

But is in Africa where a simple plant, the hoodia gordonii, is starting to emerge as a solution for both sides. It is what I call the Hoodia paradox.

The hoodia goordonii is a succulent which originally grows wild in the Kalahari and Namib deserts in Southern Africa, in certain areas of South Africa, namibia, Angola and Botswana. The hoodia gordonii is a plant having a molecule which suppress appetite.

The hoodia pills made a revolution in the weight loss market in just 3 years, being today at the top of the consumer demand for dieting products. Why?: because hoodia works!!

Just compare the hoodia search results in the Net 3 years ago and the number of hoodia stores. At the beginning of the hoodia business, there were just a dozen shops selling hoodia, be either on line or in physical shops. Google searchs showed not more than a few thousands results for Hoodia. Today we find thousands stores worldwide and Google results are close to 12 million when you search for hoodia in the box.

On these years, the plant was wild harvested from deserts in South Africa, Namibia, Botswana and Zimbabwe and exported to America and some european countries. Main hoodia shipments were legally exported from South Africa, while other small quantities were smuggled from Namibia and Botswana. Today, a large base of hoodia commercial plantations are starting to supply hoodia to the growing worldwide market.

New hoodia cultivation projects are implemented frequently, helping entrepreneurs and small communities in those African countries to take advantage from a product with high demand, pooring money in poorer regions. New hoodia plantation and hoodia industries are being developed in those southern african countries.

And because the hoodia price is one of the highest into the herbal industry, the hoodia business is helping poor and hungry countries with money from their legal sales. It is a paradox, because the poor and hunger countries are receiving money to feed their populations, from a product which is aimed to lower the obesity in other rich parts of the world.

It is a rare situation. Because the hungry communities in poor countries are helping the obese communities in rich countries, but also the obese countries are helping the hungry populations in poor countries too.

The hoodia business is good news not only for the obese but for the hungry people. It is a good example on how the trade helps the poorest countries. And the best news is that hoodia diet pills market is growing and growing ata a fast pace.

Thanks to this hoodia paradox, poor and hungry people will improve their life and obese and overweight people will improve their health.
