Question # 1: Does the vendor that you are buying from allow anonymous, random, and ongoing product testing of their Hoodia by an independent lab? Also, and just as crucial, are they only sending in a batch sample with a lot number for testing? This is Why. There are dishonest vendors who will display the lot numbers tested on their website from a lab considered to be very reputable. But, the only way to know that this constitutes irrefutable proof of their hoodia product's strength is if the company permits ongoing, anonymous, and random testing of the actual product that is sold to the consumer. This should be completely verifiable, and also the testing should be done where the vendor doesn't know the exact testing place, where the products are bought from nor when the product was purchased. The results from such testing should be displayed right on the testing laboratorie's websites. Question #2 What about Purity? Does the company provide an easy way to check and verify that the hoodia products that they sell are made stricly from the pure South African Hoodia? The products should have no additives or fillers diluting the potency. There is a way to determine the purity of the hoodi gordonii. Looking at the label, check under the "Supplement Facts" section on the label. If it declares specifically that there are no additives, this will be apparent by your seeing the word "None" in the "Other Ingredients" section of the label. If there is anything else listed, then it's not pure hoodia. Unless a manufacturer explicitly declares "Other ingredients" as "None," it can list any fillers and additives as "Other ingredients" and legally declare the product's full gross weight as being Hoodia gordonii. This is called the O.I. (Other Ingredients) label trick. The government allows the diet supplement industry the use of "flow agents" to help simplify the process of manufacturing them. The use of silica, cellulose, magnesium stereate, etc. can be easily avoided. However, scammers know that simply by declaring them on their labels as "Other Ingredients," they can exploit a gaping loophole in the law at the customer's expense. Therefore, they continue to do so. Through the use of the high compression encapsulation techniques on the market these days, it's not necessary for fillers and additives to be added- yet the "lesser" known companies continue to do this, and still be able to call it "pure". Do you want "cheap" lesser potency hoodia, or potent and effective hoodia that's "pure"? Avoid the common "Bait and Switch" practice in which less than reputable vendors spoon-feed the lab a genuine sample, but then sell the public a counterfeit or watered-down product. Question # 3: CORRECT SPECIES- Does the product claim to be Hoodia gordonii of South African origin or just Hoodia? Of the more than 20 varieties of Hoodia known, only the gordonii species from South Africa has been proven to reduce caloric intake in humans. So-called "Chinese" Hoodia, for example, is fake. Question #4- What part of the hoodia plant does the product come from? It should be made from the biologically active part of the Hoodia gordonii Succulent. You need to find out if the vender stricly uses the peeled stem from the hoodia gordonii plant. Never buy Hoodia gordonii from companies using the "whole plant" or anything other than the peeled stems; such a product would automatically contain at least 50% less of Hoodia gordonii's active constituents necessary for effective appetite suppression. You don't want the root, nor the flowers, nor the bark. The P-57 part of the plant- or "peeled stem" is the part of the hoodia plant that you want. Question # 5: POTENCY - Am I sure the Hoodia I buy is of the highest potency possible. Does the company or its farmers patiently cultivate the Hoodia succulents for at least 3-1/2 years before harvesting the stems? When you get hoodia milled from immature plants, it may test "positive" for Hoodia , but will have insufficient P57 to suppress your appetite. Hoodia loses it's strength when exposed to or dried in open sunlight, in kilns above a certain tempeature, or when milled above certain micron levels.
