| The Real Deal
It's no secret - you will lose weight if you consume less calories than you burn. I am a living, breathing testimonial that Hoodia gordonii is an answered prayer for anyone who felt like I did – desperately wanting to lose weight but unable to shake loose from the "appetite demon" that seems to sabotage their weight loss plans at every turn.
NOTE: It is important to verify that the diet pills you buy are made with 100% pure Hoodia gordonii from South Africa, this means no fillers or flow agents. With Hoodia’s mounting popularity, it is no wonder that hundreds of fraudulent companies are selling products that contain counterfeit or adulterated Hoodia. Even those companies that do sell real Hoodia might be giving you impure diet pills.
- Mike Adams, a consumer activist and editor from the highly respected NaturalNews.com website, estimates "the counterfeit rate in tested Hoodia supplements is up to 80 percent."
- Alkemists Pharmaceuticals, an independent testing lab, reports that almost 60% of the samples they receive fail their test for purity.
But here's what's truly disturbing – some of these failed samples are sent in by companies who truly believe they have the real thing!

...there are probably many more samples that never get sent in for testing because the companies selling them either don't care or already know they're not genuine. I am estimating as much as 80 percent of the Hoodia currently being purchased by consumers is either adulterated, which means cut with other ingredients, or contains no actual Hoodia gordonii whatsoever – Mike Adams of NaturalNews.com, formally - NewsTarget.com |
After spending a considerable amount of time and money researching pure and effective products, I narrowed my search down to three. (You'll find these three are also listed on the independent consumer watchdog site, NaturalNews.com.) At the recommendation of an old high-school buddy, I tried one of the products NaturalNews.com recommends. It worked "ok," but I discovered it contained fillers – I was getting less Hoodia than I was paying for!
Many marketers advertise that their product is pure, but they don't tell you that they include fillers and flow agents like magnesium stearate. These filler items lower production costs and put more profit into the seller's pockets.
And here's the dirty little industry secret – flow agents and fillers don't have to be accounted for when manufacturers claim their product is pure.
After another failed attempt, I was ready to quit mysearch. But with all I had read and heard from people who successfully lost weight taking Hoodia, I gave it one more shot. I switched to the brand confirmed by Alkemists Pharmaceuticals and NaturalNews.com to be 100% Pure, with no fillers or flow agents. |
