Checklist
Do the porcupine bezoars you have purchased or are about to purchase meet the following criteria?
a. Are the surface or powder of the porcupine bezoars naturally coloured, or do they show signs of artificial colouring?
b. After cutting, is the inner colour of the bezoar relatively dark, or does it appear unusually bright?
c. Do the size, shape, and colour of each bezoar vary, or do they all look strikingly similar, suggesting they come from the same source?
Truth: Authentic porcupine bezoars do not display bright red, blue, vivid green, or any other unnatural colours. Additionally, their inner layer appears relatively dark when cut open. Most importantly, because each porcupine has unique resistance, genetic makeup, body structure, and habitat, every genuine bezoar is visually distinct 〞 no two are exactly alike.
To help you better recognise authentic bezoars, we have prepared a video featuring Dr Victor Porcupine Bezoars, allowing you to observe their genuine characteristics from multiple angles.

a. Is the grinding of porcupine bezoars done entirely by hand or by machine?
b. Are the cutting, grinding, and packaging processes conducted in compliance with hygiene standards?
Truth: Hand grinding is the preferred method for authentic porcupine bezoars as machines generate excessive heat during grinding, which can compromise their quality. In addition, strict hygiene practices〞such as using sterilised containers and wearing gloves throughout the process〞help prevent contamination. Dr Victor Porcupine Bezoars are produced entirely by hand under strict hygiene standards. To learn more about the production process, click here: Production Process
a. Does the price reflect the smoothness of its texture?
b. Does the seller price porcupine bezoars differently based on their type and grade (wild, farmed, or fake)?
Truth: The price of porcupine bezoars varies according to their type and grade. The general market prices per fen (0.375g) are as follows:
| Type / Grade | Powdered (per fen) | Half-Powdered (per fen) | Half-Herb (per fen) | Herb (per fen) |
| Wild Porcupine Bezoars | RM2000每RM5000 | RM1000每RM2000 | RM600每RM1000 | RM300每RM600 |
| Farmed Porcupine Bezoars | RM300每RM500 | RM200每RM300 | RM100每RM200 | RM50每RM100 |
| Due to farming conditions, farmed porcupine bezoars usually form inside the animal for only a few months to a year. As a result, most are herb or half-herb types, while half-powdered ones are rare and powdered ones are extremely scarce. | ||||
| Fake Bezoars | Fake bezoars have no grading. The lowest market price can be around RM100 or even less, while sellers using aggressive media marketing may raise prices to RM300每RM500. As many consumers lack reliable information, some fake bezoars are sold for RM400每RM1500 〞 prices comparable to genuine wild bezoars. | |||
From the table above, it is clear that prices vary greatly according to type and grade. Consumers should also consider the rarity of porcupine bezoars. It is unlikely for sellers to have large quantities of identical bezoars at the same price. Even videos showing the bezoars being extracted from porcupines are not always reliable proof of authenticity.
Exotica Dr Victor Porcupine Bezoars are offered in three fixed price tiers 〞 Supreme, Premium, and Standard 〞 thanks to a unique proprietary blending formula. Different types within the same grade (e.g., black, brown, or reddish powder-grade bezoars) are mixed, refined and harmonized to extract the essence. This method not only ensures balanced medicinal efficacy and diverse nutritional value but also makes authentic bezoars more affordable for consumers.
Regarding texture, lower-priced herb or half-herb bezoars may feel slightly coarse if hand-ground, which is normal since even under a 60x microscope, it is difficult to remove all impurities. Only higher-priced powdered bezoars maintain a silky-smooth texture through a fully hand-ground process.

a. Does the seller have many years of hands-on experience sourcing rainforest products?
b. Is the seller's knowledge of porcupine bezoars sufficiently professional?
c. Does the seller maintain a good reputation?
Truth: Since counterfeit porcupine bezoars began appearing around 2012, they now account for nearly 90% of the market. Therefore, it is recommended to purchase only from sellers who have been established before 2012 and possess years of first-hand experience in sourcing genuine rainforest products. Additionally, choosing sellers with expert knowledge and a solid reputation helps ensure the authenticity of the porcupine bezoars you purchase.
When evaluating a seller, avoid being influenced by celebrity endorsements, online awards, or social media hype. What truly matters is the authenticity and quality of the bezoars themselves. Purchasing fake bezoars containing banned substances or steroids can pose serious health risks and result in significant losses.
