Read the results of professional, clinical research carried out on the base ingredient of Proactol ....
So as can be seen, the past leaders in the weight loss and obesity pill industry, Hoodia and Chitosan, which came on the scene before Proactol, are two products that cannot provide any professional, clinical proof of their effectiveness. Neither the adulterated pills claiming to contain Hoodia, nor those allegedly containing genuine Hoodia extract are capable of doing what their distributors claim. Likewise with Chitosan diet pills.
However, Proactol, a revolutionary new product, can help you to lose weight and eliminate the chances of you becoming a victim of one of the many life-threatening medical conditions associated with obesity.
You owe it to yourself and your family.
However, these claims are totally unsupported by any clinical trials or data, and must be assumed to be false. In spite of this, web sites are advertising Chitosan-based pills as being a remedy for overweight and obesity when there is absolutely no proof of it whatsoever.
Other health claims made by Chitosan suppliers are that it can boost 'good' cholesterol and inhibit 'bad' cholesterol. There seems to be some truth in this although there are other products that do this better.
Both in the US and the UK, vendors of Chitosan have been warned to stop advertising their products as weight loss supplements.
It is also used in the water filtration industry, the beer brewing industry, and the production of wines, particularly white wine.
Hoodia came onto the weight loss pill scene some years ago when it was featured on US TV. There was such an immediate demand for this 'wonder pill' that demand exceeded supply. Naturally enough, the crooks entered the market, but this wasn't the only problem that hoodia-based pill distributors faced.
With their ever increasing popularity, it was inevitable that they'd come under close scrutiny. In March 2006, Consumer Reports, a US consumer magazine investigated Hoodia weight loss pills and concluded:
"This weight loss drug (hoodia) lacks the clinical evidence for the Consumer Reports experts to recommend this product."
In other words there is no scientific basis or evidence to support the claims that by taking Hoodia diet pills, a person will lose weight. Hoodia adverts are SCAMS!
There has been no in-depth research into these claims apart from a study on rats which was interpreted to mean that Hoodia may suppress the desire for food.
Investigations into the composition of Hoodia diet pills have shown that half of those surveyed contained NO Hoodia at all! And of those that did, many also contained a 'filler' product.
Legal action has been taken in New Jersey and California against two companies who've been accused of making fraudulent claims in relation to Hoodia. In early 2006 billions of SPAM emails were sent advertising pills alleged to contain Hoodia. The US FTC has received numerous complaints of fraud concerning Hoodia suppliers.
Health safety should be a concern to all who think Hoodia will help them with their weight problem. However, there have been clinical claims that Hoodia contained traces of a product that could cause liver damage - therefore the US Food & Drug Administration will not approve its use.
Hoodia diet pills are being marketed in the US without the approval of the US government body whose role it is to protect the health of US citizens. Consumption of Hoodia may be dangerous.
Hoodia is a very rare plant - it's listed on the Convention of International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora. It's proved extremely difficult to cultivate, and combined with its rarity, means that the powder derived from its foliage is expensive and will continue to be so.
This has lead to much illegal behaviour in the production of the powder used - in fact many so-called Hoodia-based pills contain very little Hoodia. The use of 'filler' substitutes is common.
Most of these products are using one of two basic ingredients - either HOODIA or CHITOSAN.
Hoodia Diet Pills and Chitosan are heavily advertised on the internet, and to date they've had no serious competitors. Many distributors of products containing either Hoodia extract or Chitosan have been able to get away with lies, deceit, and total unprofessionalism. Some of them are outright scams and have been charged with criminal offences in US courts.
Are they still the market leaders?
