Hoodia is selling fast over the counters but whats so great about this Africa product? Dieters prefer this because it reduces their appetite, which result in reduction of calories and body weight without causing any side effects. Isnt this explanation enough?
Now we come to the safety issues. Many pills have come and vanished. Dont consider that hoodia is safe only because too many people are using it! But factor like no reports of health hazards after consumption of hoodia is worth a consideration.
The most effective category of hoodia is hoodia gordonii, which comes from the semi-desert area of Kalahari Desert. The natives of those areas have been consuming hoodia for hundreds of years without any side effects. They used to reduce their hunger with hoodia as scarcity of food was a regular affair for them.
The problem that arises with hoodia is not about its side effects but it is about the originality of hoodia. The market is full of fake hoodia and you have to be careful while purchasing your the product. Still now there is no such regulation related to the transaction of hoodia. However, few companies have started their self implemented regulation to control the quality of the product.
The ever increasing demand of hoodia coupled with a non-existent regulation has resulted in the hike in the price of hoodia and have also opened the gates for corruption and fake products.
Around 17 brands of hoodia have failed the test of authenticity conducted by the Truth Publishing and Alkemist Pharmaceuticals. Are you shocked? You can even find couple of these brands in the department stores, which you visit regularly. Sometimes other plants or cheap types of plants are mixed with hoodia at the source of packing.
Companies that sell hoodia are unable to detect between a real hoodia and a fake one. However, these fake products generally do not cause any harm but you will not lose your appetite by using it.
To remove all the fakes strict regulations are soon going to be implemented. Until that you have to be extra careful. However, some of the hoodia sellers are directly connected with the farms in Africa and their product tend to be more authentic than other Brands which you find on the shelves in many stores. They have been approved as authentic hoodia sellers by the Truth Publishing. Check the authenticity of hoodia before you decide to try the product.
