The Rich History Of Hoodia Gordonii
In the last few years, the weight-loss industry has been abuzz with promise, as a new and tested appetite-suppressing supplement made its way through the market's shelves, and showed great promise in effectively fighting obesity and overeating.
The wonder product, known as Hoodia Gordonii, has been heavily marketed and praised by critics and experts for potent weight loss properties, and thus has become immensely popular today. And though there has always been a high demand for diet and weight loss pills, especially after the FDA’s ban on the drug ephedra, the alternative herbal supplement market was particularly ripe for the entry of the next new diet product.
From The Desert Regions Of Southern Africa To Western Markets
A large segment of the supplement's ever-increasing popularity stems from many claims, which have been proven, that native San Bushmen in the Kalahari desert of southern Africa have relied on Hoodia for centuries, to ward off hunger and thirst during long hunting trips. They were said to have cut off the stem and eat the bitter-tasting plant. This cactus-like plant often grows in clumps of green upright stems.
The supplement derived from the cactus-like plant is now sold in Western markets in either capsule, powder, liquid, or tea form in many health shops and on a lot of many Internet health supplement shops. The plant's components are also found in the popular diet pill Trimspa. Despite the supplement’s popularity, there are no published or controlled clinical or lab trials done in humans to indicate that the drug is safe or effective in pill form.
What Major Studies Have Analyzed The Supplement
In one major study that was published in the September 2004 issue of Brain Research Magazine, it was revealed that that injections of p57 into the appetite-controlling part of rat brains resulted in altered levels of ATP, an energy molecule that may affect hunger.
The animals receiving the P57 injections also ate less than rats that received placebo injections. However, this was an animal study and injections in the brain are different from oral consumption, so it cannot be used to show that the product in oral form can suppress appetite in humans.
The supplement's initial maker, Phytopharm has cited a clinical trial involving 18 human volunteers that noted a reduction in food intake by about 1000 calories per day for the group fed with Hoodia, as compared to a placebo group. Though this may sound intriguing at those times, the study wasn't published or subjected to a peer-review process, therefore the study's quality and full essence cannot yet be evaluated.
History Of Hoodia's Development
In 1937, a Dutch anthropologist went on a journey to South Africa , where he began a study on the San Bushmen and how they used the plant hoodia to effectively suppress appetites and ward of hunger during famine. Then in 1963, researchers at South Africa's Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR), began analyzing the plant's samples.
They also revealed that laboratory animals lost weight after they were given components of the plant, particularly the flowers. The South African team, teaming up with a British company named Phytopharm, began to isolate what they believed to be an active ingredient in the plant, which is a steroidal glycoside named p57. After obtaining a patent in early 1995, p57 was licensed to Phytopharm, and eventually the pharmaceutical firm.spent more than $20 million on additional research.
After further testing and research , established drug maker Pfizer began to learn more about the plant's potentials, and began to express interest in co-developing a supplement. So, in 1998, the British firm sub-licensed the rights to develop p57 to Pfizer for an estimated $21 million. Eventually, Pfizer lost interest in developing it alone, and gave back the Hoodia rights to Phytopharm, who is now working with another major pharmaceutical firm, Unilever.

Why is Hoodia Gordinii a Preferred Weight Loss Pill by Many?
The developments resulted to the creation of a weight loss pill containing P57. The pill was as a food supplement although it has not yet been approved by the Food and Drug Administration or FDA. It became widely popular among people because manufacturers claimed that the pills were purely made of Hoodia gordinii. These were all-natural and organic that guaranteed immediate results with no side effects.
Hoodia gordinii was considered to be the safest, most effective and most powerful appetite suppressant to date without the presence of harmful substances such as ephedrine. Because the pills were purely made from natural plants, side effects were nonexistent and consumers did not experience the negative effects that other products seem to have like mood swings, hunger pangs and difficulty sleeping.
People also liked the idea that the weight loss pills were very affordable and do not need any prescription since they fall under supplementation and not drugs. Hoodia gordinii pills were to be taken twice daily 30 minutes before meals together with a tall glass of water. The dosage also depends on the person’s weight. Heavier individuals may require 3 or 4 pills daily. There are indications and dosage provided on bottle labels.
The weight loss pills primarily work to suppress both hunger and thirst. People easily have the feeling of being full due to direct actions of Hoodia gordinii on the hypothalamus which is responsible for feelings of hunger and thirst. People are advised to continue eating low-fat healthy meals and lots of water together with the pills. These are most effective when trying to control fat and sugar cravings.
Controversies Surrounding Hoodia Gordinii
Major manufacturers stopped research and development on the P57 due to a variety of reasons like there was no direct evidence that Hoodia gordinii was significantly helpful in suppressing appetite, there were some signs of untoward effects on the liver and P57 was somewhat difficult to synthesize.
Just like any other food supplement, Hoodia gordinii weight loss pills are supposed to be incorporated with regular exercise and diet to maximize results. The full safety and usefulness of the pills are still unsubstantiated and experts say that it's a long shot before it can gain approval from the FDA. Users are advised to take the pills cautiously and to watch out for any adverse effects and reactions with other substances.

More Than Weight Loss: The Other Benefits Of Hoodia Gordonii
The current U.S. ban on the sale of the popular weight-loss drug ephedra has left a large void in the diet pill industry, and as such has left the industry ripe for a new supplement to take over.
The entry of a potent, natural weight-loss supplement, Hoodia gordonii, has created a buzz among dieters and slimming enthusiasts, as the supplement is touted to possess miraculous appetite-suppressing qualities, and with little or no side effects noted among its users.
Most variants of Hoodia, whether they be sold in pills, capsules or patches, have become widely popular, and the supplement’s fame has moved beyond the simple plant that the San bushmen in the Southern African region would cut open and chew to ward off hunger and thirst during long hunting trips.
Benefits Of Taking Hoodia For weight-Loss
The benefits of using Hoodia are by far more striking than what has been touted in the past. Compared to other currently-sold health foods and supplements, the supplement is noted to possess more health benefits and is more understood. Individuals who undergo this method have no diets to stick to, as it naturally decreases appetite, wherein users don't feel starved, as it also gives a healthy feeling of general good health and energy.
The product is completely natural and safe to use, and won't keep users awake at night, with no artificial stimulants and harmful side effects. Since this natural supplement is an organic product with no synthetic or artificial appetite-control agents, it works naturally in suppressing appetites. The product is also touted to act as an aphrodisiac, and could be felt by both men and women.
Hoodia Gordonii Is the Most Potent Among 20 Varities
Although there are 20 known variants documented, only the Hoodia Gordonii variety is the one believed to contain the natural appetite-suppressant potentials. The bushmen of the Kalahari desert have been eating it for decades, as they would cut off part of the plant’s stem and eat it to ward off hunger and thirst during nomadic hunting journeys. The bushmen have also been documented to use it for alleviating severe abdominal cramps, hemorrhoids and tuberculosis.
By taking Hoodia, your appetite is suppressed effectively. However, you cannot go without eating to simply lose weight. Starving slows down the weight loss process; when your body isn't getting enough food, your metabolism slows down, thus slowing down weight loss and also leaving you with an assortment of other health problems.
Our bodies need all types of food to function; that includes fats, proteins and carbohydrates. In daily living, we need dietary fat, like that found naturally in fish, oil, nuts and seeds. Protein is an important building block of bones, muscles, cartilage, skin and blood, and is found in poultry, beans, fish, and whole grains, so we need to eat some if only to effectively nourish our natural systems.
Laboratory research has shown that Hoodia Gordonii can reduce appetites by 2,000 calories a day. They say the "average" person's calorie intake per day is 2,000 calories. With taking the supplement, it's almost like starting with a clean slate; with 2,000 calories worth of food a day suppressed, you're free to make healthier options, because you'll be eating out of necessity, and not out of hunger.

Comparing Hoodia Gordonii Pills And Teas
Hoodia Gordonii is sold in most health food stores and online shops these days. It's been called the number one natural appetite suppressant today.
However, some consumers may ask, what exactly is it? Does it live up to the hype, and how does it work in helping you lose weight? It’s a cactus-like plant that has been grown for centuries y tribesmen in the Southern African desert region, and used as a natural appetite suppressant and thirst quencher during long hunting trips.
One of the first studies on this plant was done in the UK on obese patients. Half of the volunteers were given Hoodia Gordonii, the other half were given a placebo, and the volunteers were allowed to read, watch television and eat.
Lab Studies Have Noted Its Potency
After 15 days it was found that those taking this plant had reduced their calorie intake by a thousand calories a day. Despite having unlimited access to food, the volunteers lost weight. Since it is a plant, as versus a man-made chemical, it is completely natural and experts say it is safe to consume.
Researchers have been studying it for almost 10 years and have not found any side effects. The San Tribesman as well have been eating the plant for years with seemingly no negative effects.
Many Hoodia Products Are Sold In Different Servings
While there are no specific supplements that are being sold as "Hoodia tincture", tincture is a word that is synonymous with drops, medicine, tablet, tonic and many other words.
As a result many companies use the phrase o refer to their products. If consumers are looking for a different form, there are products which are sold as liquids, drops, capsules, herb blends and even coffee. At present, there is no prescription form sold yet in pharmacies or drugstore. Its initial manufacturer, Phytopharm, appears to be working on that. Tea manufacturers commonly use the term “tincture” to describe the products that they sell.
What Are The Composition Of Hoodia Tea
Two commonly found Hoodia tea products are Desert Tea and Bija Tea. Desert tea contains one full gram of the plant per tea bag and rooibos (an African shrub whose leaves are dried to make an herbal tea) for flavor.
Bija tea contains an unspecified amount of gordonii, green tea, magnolia bark, oatstraw herb, garcinia cambogia, bitter orange and grapefruit. Product testimonials, customer reviews and comments indicate that the larger the amount of gordonii present, in any forms of the tincture, the better the results. Green tea contains caffeine which is a stimulant and should be avoided by those who are sensitive to stimulants.
Bitter orange and grapefruit are added as flavorings and for anti-oxidant value. Garcinia cambogia was used in traditional Indian medicine to treat swelling, constipation and an array of other complaints. Its effectiveness as a weight loss supplement has not been proven. Magnolia bark and oatstraw are commonly used in herbal teas.
With that many different ingredients, there may not be very much gordonii present in this tea. Product testimonials, reviews and customer comments indicate better results and overall satisfaction with a tincture that has 100% of the wonder plants' components. Other considerations about the supplement’s tea form are the same as those with any tincture.
For best results and satisfaction, look for products with CITES certifications that verify the presence of genuine Hoodia gordonii. You should consult your doctor before using these type of tincture; this is specifically true of a tea which contains stimulants, since stimulants can affect blood pressure, therefore persons should be in reasonably good health. Products should not be used by children or women who are nursing.
Whether you choose to use a tea or a tincture of another variety, please report any unusual symptoms to your health care professional, along with a list of the product ingredients.

Hoodia Gordonii And Its Effect On Obesity
In the desert regions of Southern Africa, native bushmen have been noted to eat a cactus-like plant for years, as a means to control hunger and appetite when they were out hunting without food.
This prevalent use of the Hoodia plant by native tribesmen has been taken into consideration by scientists and drug manufacturers into the development of a safe dietary supplement for appetite control by acquirng the properties and ingredients that can be obtained from the dried whole plant. Some people who have taken these supplements have noticed that their appetites were significantly reduced within 20 to 30 minutes, and were noted to last for several hours.
Users have also noted that their interest in food significantly diminished, because they feel full and they experience a delay in the onset of hunger, as well as acquire an increased sense of wellbeing. In other users it may take up to 2 to 3 weeks for the supplement to achieve the desired maximum effect.
The Supplement Has Caused A Stir Among Overweight Individuals
Many health analysts have noted that around two thirds of all Americans are overweight to a degree that may damage health. Doctors today often remind obese patients that weight control is a function of a well planned diet with calorie control, exercise and behavior modification, and needs to be practiced to the hilt by those who wish to significantly reduce weight.
However, there are some medications that also act in the same manner as stimulants, and these stimulants or supplements are generally not safe because they may raise blood pressure levels and increase the risks of cardiovascular problems. Being overweight is often associated by health experts with high blood pressure, high blood cholesterol and insulin resistance, and without significant behavior modification by obese patients, weight loss can not fully occur.
It is widely perceived that Hoodia may alter the body function of appetite control. The weight loss product has not been reported to make users feel jittery or anxious, since it is not a stimulant. As a matter of fact, there have been very few side effects reported with use of this supplement. Pure Hoodia supplements usually contain variable amounts of fiber, organic material, antioxidants and other biologically active substances.
Hoodia Is Seen As More Effective Over Other Dieting Methods
Obesity is a condition which is commonly associated with digestive diseases. Dealing with excess body weight and its related ailments are key public health initiatives today. There has yet been no diet in the history of medicine that has resulted in sustained weight control, specifically when diets are used as individual, impartial interventions.
The claims of weight-control associated with dietary supplements and drugs have created pressing regulatory problems, as well as a substantial loss of consumer confidence. In the dietary product market, "low-carbohydrate" and "low-fat" diet mixes or pills have lost a sizable amount of interest, however the discovery of the appetite-suppressing abilities of Hoodia has produced much-frenzied consumer interest.
According to dietitians, the most simple way of understanding weight control is to define the major aspects that alter energy balance in the body. This also means a consideration of how changes in body's energy storage relates to energy input and output in the body, as today's consumers are seeking a concrete, evidence-based approach to weight control with safe and effective dietary supplements.
The aspect of weight management is no longer simply viewed as a mere cosmetic issue, as obesity has become one of the most common causes of premature death and disability in several Western societies.

Herbal Solutions
The sweat glands under the arms and in the groin release a substance which is a related cause of body odor. In our daily lives, we get constantly exposed to toxins in our homes, food, and air that accumulate in the body when the organs cannot excrete them. The liver and intestines may be clogged up, causing odors to emanate from the body.
Major Factors Causing Body Odor
Body odor may be caused by a variety of natural and environmental factors, and may also be brought about by a person's eating habits. Some individuals who eat large amounts of meat or who are vegetarians have a very distinctive body odor, which may smell offensive.
Some individuals cannot metabolize foods containing large amounts of choline, such as eggs, fish, liver and legumes that result in a "fishy" smell. Another cause for the body odor may be the dietary imbalances, which results in constipation. Depression can be another cause of body odor. When one is depressed, an indifference to self-care can often be seen, not only in terms of bathing, but of clothing, grooming, and hair care as well.
Certain food and drinks, such as onions, garlic, curry, certain spicy foods, coffee and alcohol, are also some of the causes of bad odor. Fried and baked food may contain rancid fats and oils that lead to smelly odors. Other factors causing bad odor may be underlying causes of excessive sweating, such as low blood sugar, liver disease, diabetes, parasites, metabolic dysfunction, menopause, or emotional stress.
Herbal Home Remedies For Treating Body Odor
Many simple home treatments are easily available in treating, or reducing the negative effects of bad odor. Vinegar is also an effective home remedy. Apply cider vinegar or white vinegar for unpleasant armpit odor, use a cotton swab to apply over the affected areas.
However, do not apply vinegar on freshly shaved skin as this may sting and cause a rash. A cupful of camphor oil and boiled mint leaves will also effectively eradicate body odors. Applying baking soda with lemon on the underarms also kills bacteria, and aids in absorbing sweat.
Eating healthy food that contains considerable amounts of fiber, whole grains, wheat, soy products and green leafy veggies also helps. You may also include red radish juice in your diet. You may also apply these on your feet, under the arm and between the toes after the shower. In addition, mixing a tablespoon of honey to lukewarm water as a rinsing solution will help in keeping body odor in check.

Cure Depression by Taking Herbal Remedy

Study Notes Herbal Medicines Effective For Seasonal Allergies
According to a study published by Allergy: European Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine can be safe and effective treatment options for patients with seasonal allergies.
Acupuncture was given once a week for six weeks with a Chinese herbal medicine formula taken daily. At the conclusion of the study, patients noted improvements in allergy symptoms in the nose and eyes, higher energy levels, and improved emotional well-being.
Antihistamines and allergy injections aren't the only treatment options available
to the more than 30 million Americans who experience seasonal allergies. A
growing number of allergy sufferers in the United States are turning to the ancient therapy of acupuncture to bring them relief from the sneezing, congestion and watery eyes that plague them.
Seasonal allergies fall under the diagnosis of allergic rhinitis, which includes such symptoms as runny nose, sneezing and watery, itchy eyes. Allergic rhinitis may be triggered by blooming plants, dust, animal dander, or other environmental sensitivities.
Consumers spend millions of dollars each year on medications and allergy shots to treat allergic rhinitis, and these treatments can cause unwanted side effects, such as drowsiness. Acupuncture for allergic rhinitis focuses on supporting the immune system, as well as relieving symptoms.

Hoodia Gordonii Succulent vs. Caralluma Fimbriata Succulent
A company named Pure Herbal Products, Inc. has created a brand called Pure Caralluma ™ which uses 100% Pure Caralluma Fimbriata Succulent. Caralluma Fimbriata succulent already has some studies behind it that makes it look very promising in the world of weight loss dietary supplements.
If you have tried Hoodia Gordonii Succulent and did not have any success, you may want to try Caralluma Fimbriata succulent before giving up on an all natural appetite stimulant. Currently there are not many products on the market containing 100% Caralluma Fimbriata Succulent but we suspect that will change in the near future.
We will probably start seeing combination products which contain other well known weight loss supplements such as green tea, Citrimax, and Chromium.
Remember that weight loss supplements usually target different areas. Some are considered fat burners, some inhibit the absorption of carbs or fat, and some are appetite suppressants. Caralluma Fimbriata Succulent is for people who want help in controlling their appetite.
You may see Caralluma Fimbriata Succulent combined with ingredients designed to burn fat, absorb carbs, etc. But keep in mind what your goal is before purchasing a weight loss supplement and you will probably not be disappointed with the results. It appears Caralluma Fimbriata succulent will be affordable and the dosages will be reasonable. It appears that dosages are going to be around 1 gram per day. The manufacturers will probably recommend divided doses throughout the day but be sure and follow the directions on the bottle.

Are You Using Imitation Hoodia Gordinii Pills? How to Tell
Warning Signs
Raw Hoodia gordinii now is virtually running low because of previous large scale operations making way for the production of weight loss pills. One warning sign that you might be getting fake Hoodia is its cheap price.
On the average, powdered and extract forms of the herb can cost around $3,000 per kilo. If you are getting your pills at very low rates, you may be getting very small quantities of the real herb or none at all. At present, about 50% of all sold Hoodia pills are fake or mixed with fillers.
Check the content label. It is vital that the product you get is purely composed of Hoodia. There should be no other ingredient that tends to dilute or interfere with the overall quality of the product. Imitations use "fillers" just to make up for more lacking pure Hoodia. Some examples of additives would be green tea, water and excess flavorings.
Finding Out for Yourself
Although the Food and Drug Administration or FDA do not regulate distribution of Hoodia pills since they are categorized as dietary supplements and considered relatively safe, you have to be well aware of reputable manufacturers. There some popular brands known to be using only pure Hoodia in all their products. Price may increase because of the name but at least you are assured that you’re only getting the best quality.
Observe the effects of the present pills you're taking. Are you experiencing side effects like headache, nausea, gastrointestinal upsets and the like? Is your appetite suppressed most of the time? Are you losing weight after a few weeks on the supplement? Fake Hoodia gordinii pills may have side effects due to the additives and use of poor quality ingredients. They also cannot work as efficiently compared to real ones thus your goal of losing weight will significantly be compromised.
Ask for CITES export certification when buying Hoodia. Since Hoodia is very rare and comes only in its native South African habitat, CITES certificates are provided during export processes in order to guarantee the authenticity of the material.
Product manufacturers and sellers should be able to secure you one when you purchase. Some brands may be selling pure Hoodia with certification but they will surely give you other proofs that you're investing on the real thing.

Counter-indications To Taking Hoodia Gordonii Pills
hoodia gordonii is a currently popular weight-loss supplement that works by suppressing its user's appetite, and allows them to avoid binge eating by delaying the feeling of hunger in between their last meal and their next meal. The supplement is also touted to trick the brain into thinking that its user is feeling full, thereby eliminating his craving or hunger for eating foods. This supplement has been utilized by the San tribesmen in the Southern African region, in helping them suppress their appetites and allow them to stay for long periods of time without eating in their hunting trips. Although the weight loss supplement may sound quite promising, there are certain factors that need to be taken into consideration since there are a few counter-indications that quite point to the non-use of the weight loss pill. Does hoodia Have Some Unwanted Effects?According to product manufacturers, hoodia is often marketed as a herbal diet pill that does not possess any negative side effects to users, although some health analysts say that there's a lack of published studies on the supplement's safety in humans. Product marketers often claim that the cactus-like plant's ingredients have no side effects,because the San Bushmen in the Kalahari desert of Africa have been using it for centuries. However, many critics say that the supplement simply hasn't been around for long enough in North America, and it hasn't yet been subjected to long-term safety tests to uncover any possible side effects, drug interactions, or safety concerns. According to health experts who have done studies on the supplement, although the supplement did appear to suppress appetites, there were indications of unwanted effects on the liver caused by components other than the active ingredient p57 that could not easily be removed during processing. In addition, many say it's clear that hoodia has a long way to go before it can earn approval from the Food and Drug Administration, and the FDA cautions that "until safer formulations are developed, dieters should be quite wary of using it".Other Product Counter-indications According to some critics, if hoodia does affect liver function, it may also interact with other medications a person is taking. The Bushmen of Southern Africa are a tribe of hunter-gatherers, and probably did not take the same pills for blood pressure, diabetes, cholesterol, depression, and other diseases, as some of us usually do, which is another factor why unconfirmed reports of safe use by the San should not be relied on. Individuals with diabetes should be cautious about using the supplement. One of the theories about how the supplement works, is that it tricks the brain into thinking that it has enough blood sugar. Without proper feedback regulation, it's possible that a person's blood sugar could drop dangerously low while taking hoodia. And with the regular hunger mechanism turned off, the normal warning signs may be suppressed, until it's too late. This product is also believed to suppress not only appetite but also thirst, as there have been unconfirmed reports of farmers in Africa who took the cactus-like plant to take the ward off hunger pains, but died of dehydration because they didn't feel thirsty. As a general precaution, because the safety in pregnant or nursing women, children, or people with liver or kidney disease hasn’t been established, these people in particular should avoid hoodia.

Hoodia gordinii has been widely used by several manufacturers for its relative anti-obesity effects. The plant mainly comes from South Africa and companies invest a lot of money just to be able to grab some of the raw material that's becoming so popular. There are also unscrupulous individuals who create fake versions of the dietary supplement. You need to know how to identify these to avoid putting your money and health at risk.Warning SignsRaw hoodia gordinii now is virtually running low because of previous large scale operations making way for the production of weight loss pills. One warning sign that you might be getting fake hoodia is its cheap price. On the average, powdered and extract forms of the herb can cost around $3,000 per kilo. If you are getting your pills at very low rates, you may be getting very small quantities of the real herb or none at all. At present, about 50% of all sold hoodia pills are fake or mixed with fillers.Check the content label. It is vital that the product you get is purely composed of hoodia. There should be no other ingredient that tends to dilute or interfere with the overall quality of the product. Imitations use "fillers" just to make up for more lacking pure hoodia. Some examples of additives would be green tea, water and excess flavorings. Finding Out for YourselfAlthough the Food and Drug Administration or FDA do not regulate distribution of hoodia pills since they are categorized as dietary supplements and considered relatively safe, you have to be well aware of reputable manufacturers. There some popular brands known to be using only pure hoodia in all their products. Price may increase because of the name but at least you are assured that you’re only getting the best quality. Observe the effects of the present pills you're taking. Are you experiencing side effects like headache, nausea, gastrointestinal upsets and the like? Is your appetite suppressed most of the time? Are you losing weight after a few weeks on the supplement? Fake hoodia gordinii pills may have side effects due to the additives and use of poor quality ingredients. They also cannot work as efficiently compared to real ones thus your goal of losing weight will significantly be compromised. Ask for CITES export certification when buying hoodia. Since hoodia is very rare and comes only in its native South African habitat, CITES certificates are provided during export processes in order to guarantee the authenticity of the material. Product manufacturers and sellers should be able to secure you one when you purchase. Some brands may be selling pure hoodia with certification but they will surely give you other proofs that you're investing on the real thing.

Germany Leads In Developing European Herbal Medicine Industry
The pharmaceutical industry in the U.S. is being profoundly affected by two contradictory trends, in which one is the increasing number of biotechnology products and processes, and the other is the growing use of herbal medicines.While relatively novel in the U.S., herbal medicines have a long history in Europe, where for over 100 years their quality control and good manufacturing practices have been comparable to those of conventional drugs. The global market for herbal medications in 1996 was estimated at $14. Billion, distributed in the following manner: Europe; $7 Billion, Japan; $2.4 Billion; North America, $1.6 Billion; and the rest of the world, $0.3 Billion.Economically and technologically, Germany has the most developed herbal medicine industry and the single largest market ($3.5 Billion), followed by those of France ($1.8 Billion) and Italy ($0.7 Billion). The reason European consumers show such a strong preference for herbal remedies largely is due to an aging population afflicted with chronic diseases for which modern medicine has few satisfactory treatments. Consumers, who often reject conventional drugs with their potentially severe side effects, often prefer natural alternatives.In Germany, consumer attitudes fit into a medical establishment that accepts the use of herbal medicines (i.e. phytopharmaceuticals). Courses in the use of herbal medicines are a regular component of medical and pharmacy curriculae, and since 1993 this subject has been a regular component of the German medical examination. More than 70% of general practitioners prescribe herbal medicines, most of which are reimbursable by the public health insurance system.
