Fake Hoodia Scams Abound – Make Sure You’re Buying The Real Deal
By Jennifer Wilson
Most products being sold on the net today are nothing more than capsules filled with unidentifiable plant material and sawdust. Crooks and ripoff artists are exploiting the weight loss craze in America and scamming people into paying 40 bucks a bottle for fake hoodia.
Pure South African Gordonii is rare, expensive and rapidly becoming as exclusive of a commodity as diamonds. There is only one place in the world where authentic Gordonii is grown for commercial export and that is the Western Cape of South Africa. There are only 5 major farmers on the African continent authorized to grow Gordononii and of those, only one has authorization to sell the pure powder directly to the US market.
Real costs around 300 US Dollars per kilo and is available only to companies licensed by the FDA and USDA to import terrestrial plants. At this price, pure Gordonii is one of the most expensive herbs on the market and many hopeful manufactures cannot or will not pay the high prices involved with using authentic Gordonii.
The scarcity and expense of pure Gordonii is causing a worldwide scam of fake products being sold. Many of these imposters claim to have the real thing but lab testing shows they are actually offering a common cactus called Opuntia or Chinesse Extract. And what is even worse is some fake products contained ground plant material of ‘unknown origins’, starch, maltodextrin, rice powders, and sawdust! So its no wonder that one third of all hopeful consumers have had bad results, they are buying bogus products sold to them by rip off artists that contain absolutely no genuine Gordonii!
The good news is there are three Sure-Fire ways to verify the authenticity of Genuine Gordonii products before you buy them. The primary method for determining that the vendor is selling you genuine Gordonii is to look for a document called the C.I.T.E.S certificate. This is a certificate issued by Cape Nature of South Africa. It stands for the Convention on International Trade of Endangered
Species of Wild Fauna and Flora. Gordonii is a protected plant species and it can only be sold and exported when a valid C.I.T.E.S certificate has been issued. Without this certification, any attempt to import into the United States will be seized by US Customs at the point of entry. So, you can be certain that if they have a valid CITES certificate, you are buying the real deal.
But beware! Some websites claim to have a valid CITES certificate, but when you look at it you will notice the importer and/or exporter have been whited-out. A real certificate will clearly state the legal importer and exporter for the shipment. So take a good close look before you decide that they are legitimate vendors.
The second way to authenticate genuine importers is to ask to view their USDA Import License. All Gordonii importers must have a valid USDA license and be registered by the Food and Drug Administration. Any honest Gornodii supply company will happily, in fact proudly display all of these credentials to verify they are lawful trustworthy suppliers. If they seem hesitant, or their paperwork seems shifty or incomplete, look elsewhere for your Hoodia, don’t let yourself become their next victim.
The final and perhaps most decisive method to verify genuine products is called the Alkemists Lab Report which I discuss in full detail at my website to help you decisively authenticate pure Gordonii products from the imposters.
