There are millions of overweight people in North America desperate to find a solution to their weight problem. The diet industry is famous for having unscrupulous products that promise the world but don't deliver.
This is true of the Hoodia dietary supplement industry too. There are many dishonest Hoodia manufacturers on the internet. Please be aware that not all the Hoodia promoted is of high quality. It's Buyer Beware so if the deal sounds too good to be true, it usually is. Here are some tips for buying Hoodia:
Make sure it's from South Africa: Although there are many varieties of Hoodia grown in China , Mexico and even the US , only Hoodia gordonii from the desert regions of South Africa ( Botswana , Namibia and Angola ) possess the active ingredient identified to aid in appetite suppression. Hoodia Vita uses pure Hoodia gordonii powder.
Look for CITES certification: Not all Hoodia is high quality, some of it isn't even true Hoodia gordonii. To ensure that you are buying the real thing, look for a C.I.T.E.S. (Convention of International Trade of Endangered Species) license. The growth and export of Hoodia is strictly controlled by licenses and permits issued by the South African government. The CITES certificate proves that the origin is South African and is of high quality. View Hoodia Vita CITES license here.
Look for Independent Laboratory Certificate of Analysis: A certificate of Analysis can prove that an independent laboratory has tested each batch of the manufacturer’s Hoodia ingredient to verify that it actually contains Hoodia. You’d be surprised how many manufacturers fail these tests. Buying fakes will only lead to a waste of time, money and disappointment. View SlimZone Hoodia Vita Certificate of Analysis below.
Real Hoodia is Not Cheap : There is a limited supply of Hoodia and very high demand for the product, which makes it expensive. If a company is offering more than 60 capsules for less than $25 – BEWARE! You’re most likely buying a fake. Hoodia takes 5 years to mature and there are only a handful of farmers in South Africa producing Hoodia which keeps the supply limited. The raw material costs manufacturers on average $300 USD per kilogram. Unscrupulous companies may not be concerned with quality or purity and are not providing you with the real thing, or are bulking up the capsules with other cheaper ingredients meaning that you're not getting enough Hoodia to effectively suppress your appetite. In this case, cheaper is not better!
Dosage is key: The optimal daily dosage for high quality Hoodia is 1,200 mg of pure Hoodia. Anything less than this won't provide you with effective weight loss results. Hoodia Vita offers you a minimum of 1,200mg daily dosage. View the Hoodia Vita label here.
Don't buy extracts or “special blends”: Nobody has been able to develop effective extracts, not even the biggest pharmaceutical companies like Pfizer and Phytopharm. Hoodia extracts are not effective as they do not contain enough pure Hoodia in their products to derive any benefit. Special blends that include other cheaper filler products also do not contain much Hoodia, sometimes as little as 50 mg of Hoodia. Anything less than 1,200 mg is not going to give you any results. Look for pure Hoodia powder and don’t buy extracts or special blends. With pure Hoodia powder you will be consuming Hoodia in its pure form, as close to the way it is consumed by the San Bushmen. Hoodia Vita offers you pure Hoodia powder. View the Hoodia Vita ingredients and label here.
Buy stimulant-free Hoodia: Make sure any product you buy is 100% natural, 100% stimulant-free, 100% ephedra-free and 100% caffeine-free. Look for pure Hoodia powder and nothing else. View the Hoodia Vita ingredients and label here.
Beware of rating sites: Many of these sites are created by the manufacturer to promote their own products and fictitiously create the highest ranking for their products. They are not objective rating sites. In fact no objective Hoodia Rating site exists on the internet.
Read the Money Back Guarantee carefully: Be sure to read the fine print carefully. All money back guarantees are not created equal. Most Hoodia manufacturers only offer a refund on unopened bottles meaning that you won't get a refund on the first trial bottle that you’ve opened. The manufacturers should be prepared to put their money where their mouths are. If you don’t see results, you should be able to get a refund.
Hoodia Vita offers a 45 day money back guarantee on opened trial bottles. Try the introductory offer for 45 days, open the bottle and use the Hoodia capsules. If you are not completely satisfied with your results, return the bottle for a full refund of your purchase price (less shipping, handling and applicable taxes).

Beware of False Claims: Avoid buying from companies that claim that you can suppress your appetite with one capsule only. These companies are most likely not selling real Hoodia and are not guaranteeing their results. Reputable companies will tell you that you will need to build up the Hoodia in your system before it starts working effectively. This may take from a few days to a few weeks.
Buy Hoodia Vita…you’ll be happy with the results, guaranteed!
