What To Look For When Buying Hoodia Pills

When you do a search on the internet for the word “hoodia” you’ll find literally hundreds of companies selling you this appetite suppressant for losing weight. However not are all as they claim to be.

It seems that 80% of the hoodia being sold is actually totally fake. This is according to the testing company Alkemist. In reality the number of fake hoodia pills out there might actually be even more than this.

Even if the product does contain hoodia it might not be the correct type or part of the plant to help you with your weight loss efforts.

The thing is that there are 13 types of hoodia plant and it’s only Hoodia Gordonii that contains the much coveted “P57” which is responsible for telling your brain you are full up.

Even if they do use Hoodia Gordonii, they might have used the wrong part of it. The core of the plant is where the active ingredient it. This means that the flowers, roots and leaves are useless.

So a company might say their product 100% pure Hoodia Gordonii and be telling you the truth. But what they aren’t telling you is that they’re using the wrong part of the plant.

Another thing about hoodia is that there are limitations on how much of it can be harvested for export. It’s considered to be an endangered species so the South African government has restricted how much of the plant can be harvested from the wild.

This means it’s quite expensive. So for companies to try and make more money out of you, they bulk out their pills with filler ingredients such as caffeine.

So your chances of losing weight are considerably diminished. This is why it’s so important for you to check out the list of ingredients before parting with your money.

One product on the market that will genuinely help you lose weight is Unique Hoodia as it’s been tested by Alkemist Pharmaceuticals to prove it’s potency.

If you decide not to buy from Unique Hoodia, please make sure that the company you do buy from make sure you read all the small print. Also ask them for copies of the CITES certificate and Alkemist Pharmaceuticals lab report.
