Buyer Beware: Not All Hoodia Products Contain Enough Active Ingredients: " Buyer Beware: Not All Hoodia Products Contain Enough Active Ingredients

Dishonest marketers, scams abound in Hoodia market. Customers should ask questions and read the label.

Memphis, TN (PRWEB) June 17, 2006 -- Ever since CBS’ 60 Minutes reported on the miraculous appetite-supressing qualities of a South African bushflower called Hoodia Gordonii, thousands of marketers have come up with their own Hoodia offerings. All of these products claim to use the power of the Hoodia plant to help customers lose their appetites, and along with that, their excess weight.

But according to The University of Hawaii, there aren’t enough Hoodia plants in the world to produce all the pills out there claiming to use Hoodia! What does this mean to consumers? Many of these products are using a tiny percentage of Hoodia—or worse, no Hoodia at all—and marketing their product as having Hoodia as an active ingredient."
