Diet Fad Marketed In Tasty, Lollipop Form

Hoodia, A South African Plant, Marketed As Appetite Suppressant

(CBS4) BOSTON A new fad in dieting - hoodia - exploded after 60 Minutes did a piece on the supplement. It now comes in a candy form - Power Pops, which claim to taste great and suppress appetite. CBS4's Sara Underwood put the pops to the test.

Hoodia is an herb from South Africa that only grows in the Kalahari Desert. Bushman there eat the plants to prevent hunger on long trips, by shaving off the thorns and sucking on the plant.

Most Hoodia products come in capsules, but the makers of power pops say their product has a distinct advantage.

"We have the only product in the world that has the form of hoodia in it the same way the South Africans are taking it by sucking on it," said Power Pops creator, Mike Wenniger.
