Type ‘Hoodia’ into Google, and you’ll find countless expert websites or consumer advocacy websites recommending ‘DietHoodia’ as the #1 Hoodia supplement available.

They will all claim to have done extensive testing using a team of Hoodia experts, yet they will all also conveniently say that the very same products they are selling are the most effective ones.

Very convenient, and convenient for a reason. Why? Because they are hoodia sellers in disguise.

In essence they are nothing more than sales websites, fronting as the genuine article in order to promote their own product.

This is not to say no promotion is a good thing. The way UniqueHoodia have confronted this problem is to provide their customers with one, all their medical backing and laboratory testing, and two their media coverage.

UniqueHoodia is nationally recognised by the BBC, CNS and Hello Magazine as being a genuine appetite suppressant supplement

Confused? We’ll explain.

As of March 2006, the US Department of Wildlife sent all Hoodia Sellers a letter stating that they too must obtain a CITES certificate in order to export their supplement from the US.

Complicated? We think so. Yet it is another clever way for checking to see if your hoodia supplement… is the real deal.

If these companies don’t supply these certificates, they are either violating these regulations or… they are not using authentic Hoodia Gordonii in their supplement.

So check for a US CITES certificate too, and get double the guarantee.

Real Hoodia Gordonii can only be exported from South Africa and Namibia if they have a CITES certificate. And once it is exported, it must remain with the supply until it arrives.

Sounds simple so far? CITES certificates are not as straight forward as they sound.

One of the many confusions consumers make, is believing that the CITES certificate will tell them if their supplement is genuine Hoodia Gordonii or not. In basic terms… it does.

A genuine CITES certificate means it was legally exported out of South Africa. But the actual quantity of Hoodia used in your supplement? It cannot tell you.

Lastly, is it hard to read? A website may claim they have got genuine Hoodia Gordonii, and they may have even put a CITES certificate on their website, but if the writing is blurred or some areas are blacked out, the certificate is fake.

Take for example the CITES certificate on UniqueHoodia.com. Clear, concise and readily available – consumers are free to view it as many times as they want.

Through a combination of high demands; a shortage of stocks and protection procedures in place to prevent over-exportation (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora) it is easy to see why real Hoodia Gordonii costs between $30-$60 to buy for just one months supply. It is scarce.

Yet, search the internet and you’ll find countless free trials; buy one get one free deals or package offers for just $20 or less.

They are all fake.

With the above mentioned restrictions in place no company would willingly sell their Hoodia Gordonii supplement at a reduced price when they would have had to undergo all these procedures in order to just receive the plant. Hoodia Gordonii is expensive for a reason.

Take UniqueHoodia for example. They have had to recently reduce their package offers to a maximum of 6 months per sale, per person, per day. Why? To enable them to match the demand and ensure all their customers have equal chance of investing in their supplement.

So unless a company is genuinely putting their product on sale for a ‘limited time only’ promotion, you should buy with extreme caution.

If they are cheap, they are cheap for a reason.

This is where the debate gets interesting. What can determine the potency of the plant?

Simple. The active levels of P57 in your hoodia supplements. But it is not that simple.

They generally range between 0.1%- 0.45%, but as we previously discussed the majority of supplements probably only contain 0.1%. So which one is right?

Both. If you can find a supplement that contains a higher potency of P57 than 0.1% then great, but if it doesn’t… it doesn’t matter.

Remember, P57 is not the only active ingredient within the core of the Hoodia Gordonii plant. No. There are many more hidden molecules within – which have nothing to do with appetite suppression – and which cannot be isolated.

So you have got to ask yourself this? If the Kalahari Bushmen managed to suppress their appetites simply be eating the core of the plant for hundreds of years.

No added science or capsules, but just the core itself. Then as long as your supplements are only made from the aerial stem of the Hoodia Gordonii plant, then your appetite should be effectively be suppressed too.

Either way, 0.1% or 0.45%, all sites should display results from a test called High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) which is the best way to reveal the true potency of your supplements.
