Although no doubt available in specialty herb shops for many years, November 21, 2004 will go down in history as the day that Hoodia Gordonii was "discovered" in America. It was on that date that CBS 60 Minutes aired a program about Hoodia Gordonii and for the first time many people were introduced to this traditional botanical.

Now in 2005, word of this awesome
product is spreading like wildfire and taking the consumer market by storm.
Many are calling the discovery of Hoodia Gordonii the greatest
breakthrough in weight loss management of the
decade!



 

The CBS 60 Minutes segment followed reporter Lesley Stahl as she traveled to the Kalahari Deserts of South Africa to investigate the wild stories circulating about a Succulent "Cactus" eaten by native Bushmen for hundreds of years. It had been reported that the eating of Hoodia Gordonii could stave off hunger and this discovery was attracting the interest and deep pockets of major pharmaceutical companies and being touted the Greatest Appetite Suppressant of All Time.

Hoodia Gordonii researcher Dr. Richard Dixey explains how Hoodia Gordonii actually works:

"There is a part of your brain, the hypothalamus. Within that mid-brain there are nerve cells that sense glucose sugar. When you eat, blood sugar goes up because of the food, these cells start firing and now you are full."

"What the Hoodia seems to contain is a molecule that is about 10,000 times as active as glucose. It goes to the mid-brain and actually makes those nerve cells fire as if you were full. But you have not eaten. Nor do you want to." Source: BBC News Friday, 30 May 2003

Interviewing a number of people and finally sampling a "finger" from the
Hoodia Gordonii on camera, this was perhaps the first time in the history of
television that a major news report gave a green light, a thumbs up, to a
traditional plant that has the potential to help many overweight people fight
the battle of the bulge."



African Plant that May Help Fight Fat

NEW YORK (CBS) "Imagine not being hungry all day without feeling side effects typical of diet pills, like a racing heart or queasy stomach.

That's what Correspondent HoodiaLesley Stahl experiences when she takes just a few bites of the Hoodia plant in the Kalahari Desert, for a report on 60 Minutes. "

Desert Burn  Industries, LLC the leader in Hoodia Gordonii, launched the Desert Burn  supplement in the Fall of 2004 before the CBS special began to bring notoriety to Hoodia Gordonii. We knew that Hoodia Gordonii had great potential if major drug companies were interested in it and so the decision was made to manufacture the world's first 750mg Hoodia Gordonii dietary supplement capsule ever made.

In April 2005, we became the first USA company to establish a direct connection with a major South African Growing operation and now are one of two companies in the world buying South African Hoodia Gordonii direct from the farmers rather than have to continue buying thru middlemen and brokers.

Now in May of 2005 we have released Desert Burn  ZA 750 to commemorate our new premium source material.

Until 2004, only a handful of "Hoodia" products existed in the USA and in researching this incredible product information was circulating that "20:1" extracts being sold on the market contained little if any authentic Hoodia Gordonii. For this reason we decided to go with 100% Raw Hoodia Gordonii Powder and to concentrate solely on Hoodia rather than diluting the product with other herbal ingredients.

If you want the best Hoodia Gordonii then there can be only one, choose Desert Burn  ZA750.

Experts in the field of Hoodia Gordonii will tell you that large doses of Hoodia Gordonii need to be consumed if a person hopes to see results with Hoodia Gordonii. For this reason we recommend a person start out taking 3 grams a day or the equivalent of four 750mg Desert Burn  ZA 750 dietary supplement capsules.


You have heard the rumors that "All Hoodia is not created equal" and must be asking yourself then how can I be assured that I am buying the best product on the market?.. That's a fair question .

Authentic Hoodia Gordonii is only available for export from South Africa.

In the wild it is considered an endangered species and is strictly controlled.

With the advent of commercial interest in this product generated by the major drug companies commercial farms have been allowed to be launched that are growing Hoodia Gordonii for human consumption.

South African farmers number at about five currently and are required to possess a Growers License, Export License and a "per shipment" C.I.T.E.S license when shipping Raw Hoodia Gordonii out of the country.

Large pharmaceutical companies would like to control Hoodia Gordonii and currently hold patents for "extracts" of this plant but for now the 100% Hoodia Gordonii powder is permitted for sale to the public and hopefully will continue to be made available since no company should be able to "patent" a plant that was created by the creator YHWH, and has been around since the beginning of time.

Is Hoodia Gordonii the Ultimate Appetite Suppressant on the planet?

Several years ago scientists discovered that Hoodia Gordonii contains a molecule that sends a signal to the brain that you are full.

The famous Kalahari San Bushmen have known this secret for thousands of years and used the Hoodia Gordonii Succulent as a means of staving off hunger during
their hunting trips where oftentimes food is scarce. 

This traditional use is the subject of ongoing research which suggests a
molecular mechanism, but this use has not been proved by clinical studies.

South African Hoodia Gordonii is the most sought after botanical of the decade. Looking at it you might mistake it for a cactus but it is technically called a succulent as flowers blossom from it. Hoodia Gordonii grows naturally in the desert regions of South Africa.

Though available in some specialty stores, Hoodia Gordonii was relatively unknown until major drug companies rediscovered unique properties the Bushmen knew it possessed. It is gaining the reputation as the dietary supplement of all time for weight management and many people are reporting excellent success when consuming this product. We are happy to be able to offer you Authentic South African Hoodia Gordonii powder that we buy direct from one of the top Hoodia Gordonii farmers in South Africa.

We cut thru all the middleman and a mountain of unscrupulous brokers to get to the premium material. If you want the best - Desert Burn ZA 750.

Credentials, Certification and Lab Results

Desert Burn Industries is a member of the Better Business Bureau

Few clinical trials have ever been completed on Hoodia Gordonii but the best experts in the field concur that in the Hoodia Gordonii should be consumed in large amounts. We went where no other manufacturer has gone before - offering the only 750MG Capsules in the World. It has been our experience that consuming 3 grams of Hoodia Gordonii is the way to go. Start using Desert Burn  ZA 750 by taking 2 caps upon rising, 1 in the afternoon and 1 in the evening.

Stay on this routine of four caps per day until you finish the bottle.

After a couple days on this routine many people will begin to see their appetite decreasing and find themselves losing the desire to eat as much as before. Combined with a sensible diet low in carbohydrates, Desert Burn  ZA 750  is a tool that is helping many people to take control over destructive eating habits and lose weight where other programs have failed.

Want to accelerate the weight loss process and tone your abs at the same time? Try walking one mile a day or bicycling for 30 minutes. Diet and
exercise are needed to maintain permanent weight loss.

You should also consider drinking plenty of water which will help boost your energy and will work to flush your system of toxins. Heard people complain that when they lose weight they lack energy? Water can help you. Remember our bodies are comprised of over 90% water. Many of us may be dehydrated and not even know it. How much water does a person need? The formula is take your body weight, divide by 2, and this number is how many "ounces" of water you should consider drinking per day. Water is a great cleansing agent.

Desert Burn  ZA 750 Hoodia is the Number One Hoodia Supplement in the World. We spared no costs to secure the top source material on the planet. Accept no substitutes for Authentic South Africa Hoodia Gordonii Desert Burn  ZA 750. Many people in the industry sell a Chinese 20:1 extract or offer products without credentials diluting their product with non-active Hoodia to keep their costs down.

Watch the video special and what is sampled on camera is not a single pill but a large portion of the actual Hoodia Gordonii "finger" also known as stems. This sample amounted to several grams and so it is preposterous and plain insane to think or believe a claim made by many that taking one or two small 400-500mg capsules is going to produce any real effects.

We came upon the concept that if we could make large enough capsules and get a dose in the range of 3-5 grams of powder per day that it might be possible to see success from taking the product. While we cannot promise that these results are typical, and while your results may
vary, we believe our theory is proving to be true as reports are coming in of success.

Desert Burn™ was born with the goal to manufacture the largest capsules ever produced and offer them in a bottle with a generous helping of 60 capsules. We have followed up the success of the classic product with a new material which we believe to be the strongest Hoodia gordonii yet found.

Take Four caps a day and at this rate a person will consume 3,000mg or 3 grams of Hoodia gordonii per day. Some people will not need as much after getting started so the best technique id to begin at this level and after a few days on the product as allowing your system to acclimate you can always trim back if you don't need as much.

Many companies will add Hoodia gordonii to their product along with other herbs as "window dressing" but we believe in offering only 100% South African Hoodia Gordonii and not diluting it with other cheap herbs and fillers. If you want a multi-vitamin go buy one but if you want the best Hoodia gordonii on the planet there can be only one, choose Desert Burn  ZA 750 .

Did you know that most weight loss products on the market cost about $4 USD per bottle to make? You can make a Chinese Hoodia product for that but remember you get what you pay for. We use the most expensive South African Hoodia gordonii on the market because it is the best.



In the herbal manufacturing business typically what happens is a herbal material will be ordered thru a "bulk herbs" broker who specializes in importing various herbs into the country and who then sells the product to the end manufacturer.

In the first months of manufacturing Desert Burn™ we worked with Hoodia Gordonii material purchased from various herbal brokers and the response that came back from customers was that they either loved the product or it did not work for them.

Committed to being able to offer the best product available regardless of the cost we began to experiment with new material and made the decision to seek out a direct source with a South African Farmer to ensure that the quality was the best money could buy and in a sustainable supply as we have known from the beginning that as rare as Hoodia Gordonii is that if we did not get a direct source we could be caught without enough material to meet the demand that would surely arise.

Six months later in April 2005, we are glad to announce that we have signed a deal enabling us now to be able to import Top Grade South African Hoodia Gordonii directly from the farms. We are the only US company to directly import from the South African Farmers bypassing the middle-men.

Many people may try and make this statement but the proof is that we have the credentials to back it up.


South African Hoodia Gordonii farmers are required to meet several conditions: (1)Have a license to act as a Hoodia Gordonii farmer (2) hold a valid export license (3) Obtain what is called a C.I.T.E.S certificate in order to legally export the Hoodia Gordonii you have grown.

Want to know how you are buying real South African Hoodia Gordonii? Look for a copy of these credentials along with other documents like a Alkemists Labs report. Buy from a company not willing to display these documents is a sign that they are running with bogus or inferior product material.

All shipments to the USA of Hoodia Gordonii powder must also be accompanied by an Assay known as a Certificate of Analysis (C&A) which is a document which declares facts such as Country of Origin, Material Name, and verification that the material has passed a Microbiological battery of tests for levels of pesticide and other contaminants.

Unlike many other Hoodia Gordonii products on the market we do not generate a C&A ourselves on a computer but are provided our "C&A" on our material by the South African farmer we buy from. Until l now it had been very hard to get our suppliers to allow us to display the other three documents that can validate source origin so we cut out all the middlemen and went direct to the farmer responsible for the growing operation to contract to buy his Hoodia Gordonii powder.

The best material on the globe is not cheap but actually quite expensive, being sold to manufacturers in the neighborhood of $190-$300/kilo. We have spared no cost to be able to bring to you bar none the greatest line of Hoodia Gordonii products assembled, Desert Burn ® ZA 750™ and Hoodia Shake™.


Around 1999 commercial development of Hoodia Gordonii began to launch in South Africa with the aim at providing sustainable quantities of Hoodia for the consumer market.

Entering the market in 2004, we were the first company in the World to Manufacture a 750mg Hoodia Gordonii Dietary Supplement Capsule and in 2005 one of a handful of companies in the world privileged to contract directly with a major South African Hoodia Grower.

Importing the Raw Material into the USA we take the raw Hoodia Gordonii Succulent Powder from South Africa and manufacture dietary supplement capsules from the powder producing finished bottled product in Atlanta, Georgia.

Desert Burn ZA 750mg caps are manufactured and bottled in the USA in compliance with FDA Standards.

We are Registered with the FDA and also operate a Retail Store location in the Gainesville, Georgia area.

We use only South African Hoodia Gordonii and no other herbs.
