   Most of the hoodia from walmart is ineffective. You want to make sure you get “pure hoodia” not an extract. Get a pure hoodia brand that has C.I.T.E.S. certification. You also need to make sure you get 750 mg. to 1000 mg. per pill. They usually don’t put enough Hoodia in these big chain store brands to do much of anything. To find the best Hoodia I always recommend Totalink’s unbiased Hoodia comparison at

   Hope this helps.

   Unfortunately, any of those cheaper varieties of hoodia diet pills you’ll find at mass chains such as Walmart, Walgreens, and even GNC are highly ineffective for one reason – most of them don’t contain authentic hoodia gordonii (even though they claim they do). Believe it or not, the majority of the hoodia supplements on the market today are fake – meaning they contain very little, if any, REAL hoodia gordonii.

   The problem is hoodia diet pills are classified as supplements so they are not regulated. These companies can get away with a lot of claims. It’s very much “buyer beware” with these supplements and is very easy to get scammed.

   The two most important things you want to look for are CITES certificates and independent lab test results. You’ll find these documents clearly displayed on the websites of companies that are selling authentic hoodia gordonii. If you want more information on this and what other things to look for when shopping for hoodia, be sure to read this article:

   Authentic hoodia gordonii is expensive. You’ll pay anywhere between $40-$60 per bottle, which will only last 3-4 weeks because of the amount of hoodia it can take to suppress your appetite (some experts say it can take as much as 3,000mg per day before it works). Not everyone needs that much, but even if you only take half as much, you’ll go through a bottle fairly quickly. Most people only use hoodia for a short period of time anyway, but even over the course of a few months it can get very expensive.

   Also keep in mind that hoodia doesn’t work like a drug so don’t expect immediate results. Because it’s an herb, its effects are cumulative over time. Hoodia can take as long as two weeks before it starts to “kick in” so don’t give up if it doesn’t work the first few days.

   Finally, hoodia doesn’t work for everyone. Some people respond wonderfully to it, while others don’t respond to it at all. Hoodia’s effectiveness varies from one person to another. If it does work, just remember that all it will do is suppress your appetite as it is only a natural appetite suppressant. You’ll still have to do the “heavy lifting” such as maintaining a healthy diet and exercising when possible.

   Hope this information helps – and best of luck to you.
