What You Should Know About the Hoodia Revolution

You've probably come up with a brilliant idea or two in your lifetime. It felt good right? Most likely, you thought you'd get a raise at your job or even just a little bit of good, old-fashioned praise. But suddenly someone steals the limelight.

There is always someone just waiting to copycat the next big idea and profit from it, even if it means being dishonest and providing a watered down version of the original idea. It stems from laziness, greed and corruption and it costs you and me money all the time.

That's right. It's costing you and me. Because unless you know all the facts how can you tell if a product is the real deal? That's what I'm here to stop. You see, ever since 60 Minutes and Oprah did features on the amazing weight loss effects of Hoodia, numberless knockoffs started popping up on the marketplace.

This would be fine if these products really contained what they said they do, but a study done by ResearchHoodia.info found that up to 50 percent of them didn't contain what they said they did. Some did not even have any Hoodia Gordonii in them at all!

Don't get me wrong. Using Hoodia as an appetite suppressant can be a much safer and more effective alternative than many other weight loss pills. It has no known side effects and has a great track record for actually working for the majority of the people who take it. So you don't need to rule it out entirely. But here are just a few tips you should consider when purchasing a product that claims to contain Hoodia Gordonii that will ensure you get it from the original source, not the copycat brands:

1. Any product you buy should contain 100 percent pure Hoodia Gordonii. If it doesn't, go somewhere else. You may find claims that these blends maximize the effectiveness of Hoodia but in fact adding filler ingredients and other weight loss regimens like green tea can actually harm it.

2. Approval from the FDA is not required for Hoodia supplements so if the company doesn't care enough research the effectiveness of their product then its one major sign that they haven't invested much research in creating it in the first place. The study findings should be posted on their website where you have easy access to them.

3. This is one case where the expensive brand name really is better. If you find a product that is sold for much less than the mainstream products (on average this is $55 a bottle) then it either has fillers or is not Hoodia at all.

4. If you're ever in doubt, look for a phone number and call the company up. Ask them a few questions and if they don't try to feed you canned answers then they are probably the real deal. In fact, just having a support is one sign that the company cares about its customers and aren't going to sell you a fake product.

If you're wondering where to go to find a product that matches all these requirements first check out my review on HoodiThin. Their website answers all these requirements and will give you the straight up facts and their liquid Hoodia they produce is my number one pick for Hoodia supplements.
