Hoodia debate

The 400mg capsule myth – which Hoodia supplements really contain that much Hoodia?

How much Hoodia Gordonii you get in one supplement has always been at the centre of the Hoodia debate.

With many companies opting to include other ingredients within their capsules, finding one that is 100% pure is hard enough as it is, without having to also find one that will offer you the maximum weight loss results.

According to recent studies it has been found that consumers need to take between 2,250-3,000mg of Hoodia Gordonii per day to effectually suppress their appetite and lose weight.

Working under that assumption, and the fact that many hoodia companies will tell you to take only 3-4 of their supplements every day, it is logical that you will need to take 400mg of genuine Hoodia Gordonii in order to feel its full effects.

Yet despite this well acknowledged fact, Alkemist Pharmaceuticals have found that most Hoodia supplements only contain 25mg. Just a sixteenth of what you really need.

But this is not the worse of it. Look on the web and almost all leading Hoodia Gordonii supplements claim to offer 400mg. So if that is right, are Alkemist pharmaceuticals must be wrong in their estimation?

No. What you are witnessing here is the extent of these companies lies to draw you in. Take a look at the following leading competitors:

Pure Hoodia Gordonii Extract (500mg) – now before you get excited that this one is 500mg per capsule, this is an extract. Meaning… this supplement is far from being made from pure 100% Hoodia Gordonii.

Hoodia Gordonii (400mg)- this one may contain 400mg per capsule, but priced at just £18.49, the price is just too low to be genuine Hoodia Gordonii

100% Pure Hoodia Gordonii (700mg) – this one looks promising too, but with 100 tablets priced at only £24.99, it is hard to believe that they would offer extra pure Hoodia Gordonii in one tablet, plus 100 tablets of it at such a low price. Especially when the plant is so rare

See what we mean? With so many Hoodia supplements claiming to offer you the 400mg you need to suppress your appetite, it is hard to believe Alkemist pharmaceuticals statement.

Who are the genuine and who are the fake?

One sure way is to compare the prices and package sizing like we have done above. But the best way – and the one we thoroughly recommend - is to check their clinical backing. Who has tested them? What certificates of proof have they got?

Take UniqueHoodia for example. They have been clinically tested by not just Alkemist pharmaceuticals but by reputable company CNL. And proof of this testing can be found on their website, all readily available for your perusal.

Taking their backing into consideration, and extra 60mg of Hoodia Gordonii you can get in one capsule (460mg in total) what they are offering is incredible, and makes their further claims all the more realistic and desirable:

• 100% pure unaltered Hoodia Gordonii
• 2,000 daily calorie reductions
• 10,000 times the productivity of glucose at suppressing your appetite
• Increased energy and self esteem.

At just £37.92, you will be receiving the complete package.

Package size – what difference does it make to the quality of your Hoodia Gordonii supplement

If you are looking to invest in genuine Hoodia Gordonii, one of the most effective ways we have come across to help narrow your decision is looking at package size.

Now we don’t actually mean how many capsules there are per bottle (though this will play a part). No. What we are talking about is how much your Hoodia supplements cost per pill.

Take a look at the following list and you will see what we mean:

• Pure Hoodia Gordonii extract (360 capsules): £74.99 for a 3 month supply, 20p per capsule
• Pure Hoodia Gordonii 400mg (360 capsules): £55.95 for a 6 month supply, 15p per capsule
• UniqueHoodia (90 capsules) £36.27 for 1 month supply, 40p per capsule
• Hoodia Gordonii Diet Pills (60 capsules): £29.99, 49p per capsule
• 100% Pure Hoodia Gordonii (100 tabs): £24.99, 24p per tab
• Pure Hoodia Gordonii 700mg (100 tabs): £22.99, 22p per tab

Now we know this list is made up of a variety of different package sizes, but the prices of these supplements per pill speak clearly for themselves.

But before you go and buy the first option, there is something you need to know. Cheapness does not always ensure quality.

You see one of the distinctive things about Hoodia Gordonii is its rarity. Counted as an endangered species, exportation of this plant is limited and expensive. So for manufacturers to make a real profit from their supplement, this expense from exporting it needs to be translating back into the price.

And the outcome? A clear divider between bogus hoodia products, and the ones more credible in price.

Look at this list again. Most of them are nearly half the price of UniqueHoodia and Hoodia Gordonii diet pills.

Saying this there are other factors you need to bear in mind as well. Let us explain:

Is it a Capsule or Tablet? Pure Hoodia Gordonii comes not in an extract form or a tablet, but as a dried powder. For this reason you can only get real Hoodia Gordonii as a capsule. It needs something to hold it.

Package size: Considering that most companies recommend that you take to 3-4 capsules to receive the full effectiveness of Hoodia Gordonii, for a whole months supply you will need 90-120 capsules.
Now if take a look at the above list again you’ll spot straight away that some of their package sizes are a bit random. For example for 60 capsules to represent a months supply, they are essentially telling consumers to take 2 a day, meaning it would have to contain nearly 1,000mg to make it work. Impossible.

So ask yourself the question again. Which of the above supplements can offer you credible weight loss results? Go on. Not many.

But one Hoodia supplement that does clearly stand out from the rest is UniqueHoodia.

Realistic in price and in package size, UniqueHoodia can also offer you further proof of its credibility. They have got the documentation and the medical backing of Alkemist Pharmaceuticals. Plus to top it all a CITES certificate to prove the origin of their supplement.

So offer your body more. A real and credible weight loss supplement.

In one compact package, UniqueHoodia can offer consumers the benefits of:

• 100% pure Hoodia Gordonii
• A calorie reduction of 2,000 calories a day
• 10,000 times the productivity of glucose at suppressing your appetite
• Increased energy and self esteem.

Hoodia Gordonii supplements

Package size – what difference does it make to the quality of your Hoodia Gordonii supplement

When searching for a weight loss supplement not only do you want one that works but also one that will offer you the support and supplies to make it happen.

Take the recent dietary craze Hoodia Gordonii. Varying in package sizes of 60 capsules to 360, finding one that can also offer you credible weight loss results can often feel impossible.

One of the key ways to stop this confusion is to work out their price per pill value. Do that and you can begin working out which are the genuine articles from the fake, and which are hiding themselves behind their big package sizes.

Take the following Hoodia Gordonii supplements for example. From their package sizes we have worked out their value per pill:

• Pure Hoodia Gordonii extract (360 capsules): £74.99 for a 3 month supply, 20p per capsule
• Pure Hoodia Gordonii 400mg (360 capsules): £55.95 for a 6 month supply, 15p per capsule
• UniqueHoodia (90 capsules) £36.27 for 1 month supply, 40p per capsule
• Hoodia Gordonii Diet Pills (60 capsules): £29.99, 49p per capsule
• 100% Pure Hoodia Gordonii (100 tabs): £24.99, 24p per tab
• Pure Hoodia Gordonii 700mg (100 tabs): £22.99, 22p per tab

Of this list there are several things you need to take note off, before you go investing in any one of them.

Cost: now whilst the cheap 20p one looks the most appealing, its cheapness is nothing to celebrate. Why? Because Hoodia Gordonii is rare, scarce. In truth it costs manufacturers a lot of money to export, and the expense for exporting it is traditionally passed onto the supplement.

So look at the list again. A lot of them are halve the price of the more costly ones. Meaning something is amiss.

Capsules or Tabs: pure unaltered Hoodia Gordonii is first dried out before it is powdered and made into a pill. So whilst the terms ‘capsule’ or ‘tablet’ may both look right, this is in fact wrong. Real Hoodia Gordonii needs to be contained within a capsule in order to make sure it remains unaltered by other ingredients.

Package size: according to recent studies to achieve complete appetite suppression over 2,250-3,000mg need to be consumed. Now working under the assumption that you must take 3-4 capsules a day that would mean that you need 400mg per pill to get the full worth. Now before you get excited about this, let us first return to the main point: package size.

A complete month’s supply would be between 90-120 capsules. Now if you do the maths, some of the Hoodia products above appear to be a bit random in their statement that they are a month’s supply. Offering consumers either too little or too much.

So which of the above supplements can offer you credible weight loss results?

One Hoodia supplement that clearly stands out amongst this group is UniqueHoodia. Offering realistic prices and package sizes, if you look a little closer into the product itself you will also find that it has got the testing, the backing and the documentation to prove that it is the real deal.

Backed by Alkemist Pharmaceuticals, UniqueHoodia can offer consumers the benefits of:

• 100% pure Hoodia Gordonii
• A calorie reduction of 2,000 calories a day
• 10,000 times the productivity of glucose at suppressing your appetite
• Increased energy and self esteem.

Truth behind the debate – has much changed since the New York Times article in 2005?

Search the web for articles relating to ‘Hoodia Gordonii’ and the majority of them will praise it for its ability to promote natural weight loss through appetite suppression. But look for one that says the opposite, they’ll appear few and far between.

In truth, it is rare to find one that truly questions the types of Hoodia products out there. Yet The New York Times did exactly that in an article they released in 2005.

Speaking to leading physicians they questioned the quality and effectiveness of Hoodia products, when there were no human clinical trials to back their statements up.

But their article went beyond this question. They also went on to query the quantity of P57 needed to make these supplements effective.

And their report hit the mark exactly.

Out of 10 UK based Hoodia products tested by Unilever, 2 were found to contain no P57 at all, 4 had small amounts of it and the other 4 contained significant amounts. Add these together and this study suggests that only 40% contain the necessary amounts of P57 to make appetite suppression a reality.

Yet the truth of this situation is far worse.

According to Alkemist pharmaceuticals, over 80% of Hoodia products contain little if any Hoodia Gordonii within their capsules, leaving only a select group that are the real deal.

So as you can see, whilst this article by the New York Times may have been written over 4 years ago, the point of the matter is still the same: how can consumers honestly know that the Hoodia Gordonii supplements they are taking are the real deal?

The present

When you see all these facts accumulated in one place, it is impossible to ignore the accuracy of this article.

Even today the validity over Hoodia’s natural ability to promote weight loss is still under debate.
Yet the only reason this debate exists now is because of the number of manufacturers who are still choosing to offer fake Hoodia products.

Search a little deeper and you’ll find that you are living in a very different time.

One that has got the clinical trials, backing and documentation to offer consumers real customer confidence.

Take appetite suppressant company, UniqueHoodia.

On their website you will not just find a CITES Certificate which will confirm its point of origin as being from South Africa, but also, a certificate of Analysis that essentially confirms that their supplement contains more than is necessary amount to offer consumers effective appetite suppression.

So what can you take away from this article by the New York Times? The need to make sure that you know exactly what you are getting.

You see, whilst there are such companies, such as UniqueHoodia, that can offer you real credible evidence that their supplement works, there are still companies out there whose vagueness and false claims can hurt your chances of successfully losing weight.

So offer your body more. More than words, but clear documented proof.

Tried, tested and proven to contain pure unaltered Hoodia Gordonii, in one compact package, consumers can experience the benefits of:

• 100% pure Hoodia Gordonii
• A calorie reduction of 2,000 calories a day
• 10,000 times the productivity of glucose at suppressing your appetite
• Increased energy and self esteem.
