The Difference Between Genuine Hoodia Gordonii And Fake Hoodia Gordonii

You've been up all night, mindlessly watching television, hoping the monotony of watching the same infomercial over and over again will bore you into falling asleep. In the past two and a half hours you have seen the same weight loss commercial three times. By the third time around the super cheerful, super happy people are finally starting to convince you that their product just might work. Since you have been battling weight problems your entire life, you decide to try the product.

As the superficially happy people launch into their pitch for the third time your heart sinks. Even with the special infomercial price cuts and special bonuses for the product, the price is barely in your budget. If you want to give up something, like driving to work, you could afford it.

Your eyes shift around in the darkness, looking at your familiar collection of dust collectors and old video games. Surely you have something you could sell on EBay, something that would pay for the magic pills. EBay! Like a lightning bolt a thought shoots through your brain. The computer! The internet!

You can always find better deals online than offered on television. Why not run a search and see what you can come up with. Surely you can find a better price, one that fits into your budget. It doesn't take very long and you have one. One that is nearly a third of the price you saw on the television.

Before you fill out the paper work and give the company your credit card number there is something you should know. Not all Hoodia Gordonii products are created equal. In most cases when dealing with Hoodia Gordonii the lower the price the less likely the product is to work.

It is estimated that over fifty percent of the companies selling Hoodia Gordonii products today are not peddling supplements, pill, and liquid drops that actually have Hoodia Gordonii in them. Or if they do have Hoodia Gordonii in the product there isn't enough in it to really make a difference.

The United States got involved with Hoodia Gordonii when the Pfizer Company was working on creating a synthetic version of P57, the ingredient in Hoodia Gordonii that causes the body to suppress hunger urges. Pfizer worked on the project until 2002 when the University of Wisconsin-Madison took over. Pfizer announced that their research had concluded that they were having a difficult time getting it passed by the Federal Food and Drug Administration because of damaging effects to the liver.

One of the fastest ways to find out if you are using genuine Hoodia Gordonii is to look at the label. In the ingredients section it should only have one main ingredient listed, Hoodia Gordonii.

Another easy method of identifying genuine Hoodia Gordonii from fake Hoodia Gordonii is to ask to see the company's current Independent Lab Report. If they are unable to come up with a report that is less then six months old then they aren't dealing with a genuine Hoodia Gordonii product.
