Hoodia Bites: Candy Hoodia Chews
Hoodia Bites is a hoodia based product available on the market. It is in the form of a candy and claims to work as an appetite suppressant. The sellers of the product claim to have used the "certified organic" African Hoodia in the product.
Hoodia Bite Ingredients:
The manufacturers of the product say that Hoodia Bites is made using Hoodia, a succulent (a cactus of the aloe family) found in the Kalahari desert of South Africa. There are around 11 different species of Hoodia and several clinical studies have concluded that only Hoodia Gordonii from the Hoodia family works as appetite suppressant and aids in weight loss.
Unfortunately, the official website of Hoodia Bites has nowhere provided information about the particular species of Hoodia used in the product.
How does Hoodia Bite work?
The appetite suppressant properties in the Hoodia make the consumer less hungry and eat less. The active ingredient in the product sends false signals to the brain that the stomach is full. This results in lessened food intake and helps in losing excess weight.

Conclusion:
Even though Hoodia Bite manufacturers claim the product to have the appetite suppressant properties in it, it is highly difficult to ascertain the usefulness of the product. Like other Hoodia diet products, even Hoodia bites raises suspicion on the genuineness of Hoodia Gordonii used in it. In fact its official website talks about only Hoodia, not about Hoodia Gordonii.
