The Hoodia Gordonii Scams Have Gone On Long Enough

The breaking news on Hoodia Gordonii supplements is that almost all Hoodia Gordonii products available today are ineffective - essentially 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 comapnies who are claiming similar numbers.

So we did some research of our own and there's buzz on a newer Hoodia Gordonii product called Natures Biology Hoodia Prime. We used it on our human lab rat to see what she would say.

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

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 more widely spread than many consumers realize.

So we tried Hoodia Prime. Our test subject took the suggested serving size. 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 coincidence? Maybe. 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 hearty meal and would always eat a 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 pains at all. She said she had to literally remind herself to eat, and when she did eat, she had to force herself, only because she knew she had to eat.

This Hoodia Prime was definitely working. But was it real Hoodia Gordonii or something else that was causing the appetite suppression? Companies have been known to put other things in their pils, and we were going to find out.

The lot # on our bottle had been part of a large lot that was independently tested at Alkemists Pharmaceuticals. This company 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 company isn't going to fool anybody with their fake Hoodia Gordonii. 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 tests 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 Hoodia Prime pass the lab tests, but Hoodia Prime passed our own test in which our very own test subject used the product and testified to its effects. Natures Biology, the company that makes Hoodia Prime, claims it conducts its own lab tests at yet an additional lab facility.

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

That being said, if you are contemplating any other product other than Hoodia Prime, keep in mind that your Hoodia Gordonii product may be packed with things you don't know about. Since Hoodia took off as a weight loss product in recent years, manufacturer have been using it as a front to sell essentially useless products to buyers 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 supplement 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 null when manufacturers such as those that produce counterfeit Hoodia Gordonii mislead people with their labels and produce products that are full of fillers such as sawdust, worthless plants from overseas, 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 Gordonii is certainly 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.
