5 Facts- The Hazards of Buying Counterfeit Hoodia Gordonii

Question #1- Be Sure to ask yourself if the place that you are getting hoodia from allows ongoing, random, anonymous testing of all of their hoodia products. This should be from an independent lab.

Here's why.

There are dishonest vendors who will display the lot numbers tested on their website from a lab considered to be very reputable. But, the only way to know that this constitutes irrefutable proof of their hoodia product's strength is if the company permits ongoing, anonymous, and random testing of the actual product that is sold to the consumer. This should be completely verifiable, and also the testing should be done where the vendor doesn't know the exact testing place, where the products are bought from nor when the product was purchased. The results from such testing should be displayed right on the testing laboratorie's websites.

Question #2 Purity? Is there an easy way to check to see if the hoodia product is made stricly from pure South African Hoodia Gordonii? There should be no additives or fillers.

There is a way to determine the purity of the hoodi gordonii. Looking at the label, check under the "Supplement Facts" section on the label. If it declares specifically that there are no additives, this will be apparent by your seeing the word "None" in the "Other Ingredients" section of the label. If there is anything else listed, then it's not pure hoodia.

There is a trick known as the "O.I. (Other Ingredients) trick. Unless the manufacturer lists the other ingredients as "None", then it can list other fillers and additives as "Other Ingredients" and they can legally say that the product's full gross weight as being true Hoodia Gordonii.

The government allows the diet supplement industry the use of "flow agents" to help simplify the process of manufacturing them.

Through the use of magnesium stereate, cellulose, silica, and other similar ingredients, the manufacturers are able to exploit the loophole in the law regarding "other ingredients"- at YOUR expense.

But with today's new high compression encapsulation machines, it's no longer necessary. to load capsules with fillers-and still call it pure. It may cost more, but it's the right thing to do.

Avoid the bait and switch technique where less than reputable companies give the lab a "special" genuine sample, then then sell you- the public, a fake or watered-down product.

Question #3: Does the place that you are wanting to buy the hoodia from claim it to be of South African origin, or just say "hoodia"? There are over 20 varieties of hoodia, but only the one from South Africa has been proven to reduce the caloric intake of humans. If you see "Chinese Hoodia" for example- I wouldn't buy it.

Question # 4 ACTIVE PART- "Is the Hoodia I buy made from the biologically active part of the Hoodia gordonii Succulent. Does the vendor use only the peeled stem of the Hoodia gordonii plant?"

You shouldn't buy hoodia gordonii from any company using the "whole plant" or anything that isn't purely the "peeled stems. These products would automatically have atleast 50% less of the hoodia's active ingredients necessary for effective appetite control.

You don't want the root, nor the flowers, nor the bark. The P-57 part of the plant- or "peeled stem" is the part of the hoodia plant that you want.

Question #5: How potent is the hoodia that you are planning to buy? Is it made up of the highest potentcy possible? This takes atleast 3 and a half years for the stems to grow before the farmers harvest them.

Hoodia that is milled from immature plants can test positve for hoodia, but yet still have very low levels of P-57 which is the ingredient that suppresses the appetite. Also, hoodia loses strength when it's kiln dried or in open sunlight. Also, potency is lost when the hoodia is milled above a certain micron level.
