The Hoodia Gordonii Scamming Has Gone On Far Too Long

The breaking news about Hoodia supplements is that almost all Hoodia Gordonii products on the market are ineffective – using fake hoodia. One well respected health author claims over 90% of the hoodia gordonii are known to be fake. This data seems to be backed up my major testing facilities who are claiming similar numbers.

So we did some research of our own and there's a lot of buzz on a newer Hoodia Gordonii product called Hoodia Prime. We used it on our test subject to see what she would say.

The results aren't what you might think they would be. But more on that in a minute.

When was the last time you stopped and thought about the companies that create the natural health supplements you take? Often times, it is easy to assume that the regulatory forces that ensure our food is safe, our water is clean, and our medications are effective will ensure that everything we put in our bodies is safe and sound. Unfortunately, this is not always the case. Industries such as the natural health industry can be harder to regulate and with products like Hoodia Gordonii, which is supposed to be produced almost entirely in South Africa, and the shortcuts and scams that exist are much greater than many consumers realize.

So we tried Hoodia Prime. Our test subject took the suggested dosage. Nothing happened. We continued trying it, still nothing. It sure did seem like this was another hoodia Gordonii product that fell into the scam category.

But then by the end of day two, something happened. Our test subject said she was not hungry for dinner. A fluke? Perhaps. Read on.

The very next day she awoke and again was not hungry. This was definitely not the norm for this person, who typically ate a big meal and would almost always eat something for breakfast. She took her recommended dosage of two Hoodia Prime capsules in the morning with a glass of orange juice.

Again, throughout the day, no hunger whatsoever. She said she had to literally remind herself to eat, and when she did eat, it was a forced action, only because she knew she had to eat.

This Natures Biology Hoodia Prime was definitely working. But was it real Hoodia or something else that was causing the appetite suppression? Supplement companies have been known to put other things in their capsules, and we were going to find out if this was the case here.

The lot number on our bottle had been part of a large lot that was independently tested at Alkemists Pharmaceuticals. This laboratory tests the majority of the Hoodia on the market and has found more fakes than you'll find at a plastic surgeons office.

Theses were the three tests performed:

Analysis of Identity and Purity
Analysis of Chromatagraphy
Analysis of Macroscopy and Microscopy

Using these three tests, a manufacturer isn't going to fool anybody with any fake Hoodia. There are things they can do to get around each test, but you can't fool all three tests at once.

What we found by reviewing the tests conducted on Hoodia Prime is that it's the real deal. It passed all three rigorous examinations without a hiccup, and was proved to be pure Hoodia Gordonii. In a world where nine out of ten Hoodia Gordonii products are worthless, Hoodia Prime stood out like a bright beacon.

Not only did it pass the lab tests, but it passed our own test where our very own test subject used the product and verified its effectiveness. Natures Biology, the company that makes Hoodia Prime, also says it conducts its own lab tests at yet another lab facility.

So, our hats off to the fine people at Natures Biology for bringing a quality product in Hoodia Prime to the market. Bravo.

Having said that, if you are contemplating any other product other than Hoodia Prime, consider that your Hoodia Gordonii product may be packed with things you don't know about. Since Hoodia took off as a weight loss option in recent years, companies have been using it as a front to sell essentially useless health supplements to consumers who don't know the difference.

The main concern for many people, especially those who regularly take natural health products, is that they are getting what they paid for. The product needs to be the exact ingredients that are listed on the bottle – this is the very reason that there are laws in place requiring such labeling, to ensure those with allergies and special needs are able to accurately measure what they intake.

Yet, these precautions are worthless when manufacturers such as those that make ineffective Hoodia Gordonii lie on their labels and produce health supplements that are full of fillers such as sawdust, worthless plants from other countries, and succulents that can by highly allergenic. Not just that, but many times these plants will interact with existing medications that a consumer may be taking, causing an increased risk of liver, heart, or brain damage.

So be careful when you buy something. Pure Hoodia is definitely effective at appetite suppression, as proven via our own test. But just remember, nine out of ten Hoodia Gordonii products are believed to be fake.
