Hoodia is a natural dietary supplement made from cactus called Hoodia Gordonii. Now, this site isn’t about biology, so let’s talk about Hoodia as a money making opportunity.

Unlike other so called diet pills, Hoodia is real appetite suppressant and has been known as such for quite some time. But not in the west. A few years back some smart marketer decided to sell Hoodia in US and Europe to much success.

In fact, this supplement is so effective, folks from BBC and other TV stations decided to profile it, not to mention a number of clinical studies that have been completed over the years.

In short, Hoodia is EXTREMELY POPULAR and people search for it online a lot. In fact, About.Com has an ENTIRE SECTION on Hoodia.

“If you haven't heard about the supplement hoodia gordonii, there's no doubt you will very soon. Hoodia, a natural appetite suppressant, is earning attention as a potentially powerful weapon in the war against obesity and the American focus on losing weight. Hoodia supplements were just introduced to the U.S. market in early 2004.

Here are some key points about hoodia that you need to know:

  • Hoodia gordonii looks like a cactus, but it's actually a succulent from the Kalahari Desert in southern Africa. Bushmen from the area have been using hoodia for centuries to help ward off hunger during long trips in the desert.
  • Hoodia gordonii is entirely natural -- it is not a drug. Pharmaceutical companies find it so promising, however, that they are trying to isolate the appetite-suppressing molecule, P57, to create a patented diet drug in the future.
  • Only the gordonii variation of hoodia has appetite suppressant abilities.
  • Hoodia tricks the brain into thinking you've eaten, and makes you feel full.
  • Hoodia may work right away, or may take several weeks.
  • Key results of hoodia reported include a reduced interest in food, delay in the time after eating before hunger sets in again, feeling full more quickly, and a general feeling of well-being
  • Hoodia gordonii is not a stimulant, and has no known side effects.
  • Hoodia appears to be safe for most people.
  • I've been taking hoodia periodically since early 2004 and find it can be a help in an overall weight loss effort.”

In order not to violate Google TOS, I rate niches with my own star system. ** - $0.20-$0.30 per click average, *** - $0.30-$0.50 per click average, **** - $0.50-$0.70 per click average, ***** - $0.70-$1.20 per click average. While I don’t mind sharing information on ***** niches, I don’t make this information publicly available because it would quickly kill these niches or get Google pissed off at me.

All AdSense niches were tested by me personally and your results shouldn’t be very different, unless your account was smart-priced, too much time passed since my testing, MFA got a hold of the niche or your site or traffic source sucks big time.
