New York Times article on Hoodia Gordonii in 2005…..Debate then, and Now!
Their report may have been written over 4 years ago, but the New York Times article on the validity of clinical testing in Hoodia Gordonii supplements is as pivotal as it was then, as it is today.
The reason? Go on most Hoodia product websites, and whilst you will read the phrase ‘clinically tested’ within their content; when you then go on to scan their website for proof – can you find it? No. More often than not you cannot.
If anything they are vague.
Take the two Hoodia Products that the New York Times put forward themselves: Pure Hoodia and Hoodaba. Now whilst these products may claim to ‘kill your appetite’ and offer you ‘waves of energy’ with no human studies to back it, physicians were unable to back them.
In truth, back in 2005, the majority of physicians had a hard time supporting Hoodia products. They questioned their safety as appetite suppressants.
But the New York Times did not stop there in their breakdown.
They also questioned Hoodia Gordonii’s active ingredient P57. Known for being processed and broken down by the liver, physicians questioned whether Hoodia supplements contained enough P57 to effectively suppress consumer’s appetites.
Of 10 Hoodia products tested by Unilever (in the UK), 2 contained no P57, 4 contained small amounts of it and the other 4 contained significant amounts. Proof that of all the many supplements currently available on the market, a substantial amount of them in truth do not contain enough.
The present
Looking over their article, the New York Times brought up many valid points over the quality of Hoodia products.
Now whilst arguably – 4 years later – there are even more fake Hoodia products on the market, there now trials, documentation and testing methods to prove which products are the real, and which can offer consumers real weight loss results.
Take Hoodia Company UniqueHoodia. On their website you can find a CITES Certificate, a certificate of Analysis and an Organics Annex Certificate – all of which can prove that you are receiving pure unaltered Hoodia Gordonii.
But there is more…
4 years on, Hoodia Gordonii has finished undergoing clinical trials and has proven itself to be a real appetite suppressant.
So whilst there are still Hoodia Products on the market that are questionable in their validity, there are such companies such as UniqueHoodia that can prove this article by The New York Times wrong.
Hoodia Gordonii can help consumers to effectively lose weight and cut their calorie intake by over 1,000 calories a day.
UniqueHoodia is definitely the one which YOU can rely on…..

I must admit that I would think long and hard about taking any drug to loose weight, I don’t see what is wrong with good old fashioned exercise - the problem with these types of drugs is that they help to make people lazy, so yes you might loose weight, but you don’t get the added benefit of loosing weight by exercise etc.
