HOW TO COMPARE HOODIA BRANDS?

There are basically 4 different types of Hoodia;

1. Wild Hoodia Gordonii from South Africa Kalahari -This is 100% pure Hoodia Gordoni made by mother nature, discovered and eaten by the San Tribe of South Africa. They eat the Aerial Stem parts like a cucumber, which provides the appetite suppressant and other herbal benefits, and discard any pulpy leaf and flora parts. Many Hoodia brands are filled with Hoodia from pulpy leaf and flora parts, rather than from the core Ariel stem of the Hoodia Gordonii succulent plant.

2. Outdoor / Greenhouse Cultivated Hoodia – Plants that grow outdoors have the added vitaminic benefit due to the desert burn sun exposure just as the naturally occurring wild Hoodia plants do. Trying to grow a wild plant on cultivated farms, opens up a serious challenge, especially for the Hoodia plant that needs specific South African Kalahari desert burn conditions. These farmers and growers are faced with all kinds of pests and diseases that they have to keep under control, in order for the Hoodia gordonii plant to thrive. Recent droughts have limited re-issuing of Hoodia farm licenses.

3. Hoodia Extracts also refered to as 20:1, 10:1 , 1:1 formulas. If you manufacture a 20:1 extract it means you are taking 20kgs of that material to make 1, throwing away all but the active ingredient. That would make it a very powerful material indeed?

However, when you extract Hoodia, you take away a lot of the supporting medicinal Hoodia health benefits. The San Bushmen have not only taken Hoodia as an effective appetite suppressant, but also as a thirst quencher and as a cure for severe abdominal cramps, hemorrhoids, tuberculosis, indigestion, hypertension and diabetes. Studies have shown that without the supporting ingredients in the unprocessed Hoodia Gordonii, much of the potency of the suppressant and medicinal benefits are lost. Some plants have great supporting properties, but when they are extracted they are gone and some of the extracts don’t work as well without them, the Hoodia gordonii plant is such a plant. As a supplement it is best taken in its purest powder form and not from extract.

The high cost to make a 20:1 Hoodia Extract would be prohibitive. You would have to use 20kgs to make 1 Kg of Hoodia powder, so you would throw away 19. If you buy Hoodia, let’s say, for $300.00/kg USD, you can multiply that 20kgs by 300.00/kg and the cost of that 1kg left would be 6000.00 USD. The cost for 1 x 60 capsule bottle of Hoodia would be 150.00 USD and they would not be able to sell it for under $200.00 per bottle.

20:1 and 10:1 Extracts Ratio manufacturing claims, cannot support themselves financially, if made of pure Hoodia Gordinii, unless otherwise filled with a host of additives.

4. Hoodia with fillers - containing other inexpensive ingredients. Recent black market Hoodia was confiscated as it was said to have sawdust as one of their fillers and not a trace of Hoodia. 100% pure South African Hoodia, from wild Aerial Stem, is most effective as a stand alone diet supplement appetite suppressant, there is no need to add any chemicals or other additives. The San Bushmen simply eat the cucumber like Hoodia stem in very small quantities.

Real pure Hoodia Gordonii from the Kalahari Desert burn of South Africa is extremely rare and takes up to 5 years to mature for harvesting. With the great demand for Hoodia gordonii, many fly by night companies have taken to the Hoodia trade. Inferior quality Hoodia powder is being shipped from all corners of the globe, outside the regulated and licensed juristiction of Sout African Hoodia trade. One can only imaging the contents of these unregulated Hoodia shipments. Real pure Hoodia Godonii, not from extract, is rare and relatively expensive when compared to other diet pill supplement fillers. CellHealthMakeover.com's Hoodia Canada division have discovered cheap and questionable raw material sources and contents in quoted Hoodia bulk orders. 5.
