Hoodia extracts – the controversy

Search for the term ‘Hoodia Gordonii’ on the web and you will find endless websites telling you to try their unique Hoodia extract.

But here is where their first mistake comes in. Genuine 100% Hoodia Gordonii does not come in an extract form. No, not at all.

All an extract actually means is that part – and we mean any part – of the Hoodia Gordonii plant has been used to make this supplement. And we don’t just mean random parts of the plant itself.

It is surprising how many inventive ways companies have come up with in order to make their 400mg look authentic.

Don’t believe us? Take a look at the following list, it is incredible: leaves… flowers… one of the 13 other Hoodia plants… even caffeine. They have done anything and everything to cut down on the costs, and earn themselves more money.

And the person, who ends up losing out in this scenario, is you and only you.

So what can you do to escape the hoodia extract controversy? Learn the basics of what to expect when you are looking to invest in a Hoodia Gordonii product.

Take for example the capsules ingredient list.

The only other ingredients you should ever find on the packaging of a Hoodia product is the core of the Hoodia Gordonii plant, gelatine, magnesium stearate and stearic acid.

Now before you jump the gun, and say that these 3 extra ingredients must make it not 100% pure, there is something you need to know. That is not strictly true.

You see the ingredients we have just mentioned above form part of the capsule that contains the powdered form of the Hoodia plant. They are okay.

But if you find any other extra ingredients on the label or spot a quote that says it is an extract of the plant, then stop. All this information is actually telling you is that the capsule only contains 60% of the genuine Hoodia core. The rest are just fillers that will offer nothing beneficial to your weight loss journey.

And according to research conducted by Alkemist Pharmaceuticals, over 80% of the Hoodia Gordonii capsules they tested, were found to be not 100% pure Hoodia Gordonii nor authentic.

And this figure is based on the number of products that were willingly sent to them to be tested. There are in fact hundreds of other Hoodia Gordonii products that have not been tested; that have not been proven to be the genuine article.
Saying this there are products out there that have got the backing, the clinical testing and the CITES certificate to prove that they are the real deal. UniqueHoodia being one of them.
