BTW, when my wife first got into Nerium, I read a LOT about it on the internet and decided it was poison. But I had to dig deeper to see what was REALLY going on. There were a LOT of posts and sites put up by their competitors. And when your competitor has an army of MLM folks, they can be a formidable internet presence. Eventually the results spoke for themself.
I'm a few years older than you and have noticed over the years that my mental concentration and acuity ain't what it used to be.
I'm going to explore these products to see if it will work for me.
Did you notice any negative side-effects?
Isn’t Nerium MLM?
It is real hard to find objective scientific factual information on the various MLM products. You find the company and its promoters, and on the other end of the spectrum an article like this; http://www.lazymanandmoney.com/nerium-scam/
lazyman quotes barefacedtruth.com which is run by a couple of real doctors. Kind of hard to casually blow that off.
I just read “Ralph Carson, the original developer of MonaVie and the company’s chief science officer cautioned that the juice was “expensive flavored water” and that “any claims made are purely hypothetical, unsubstantiated and, quite frankly, bogus.” Carson added that he did not know how much açai was in the product.[9] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MonaVie#Nutritional_value
They sold a billion dollars worth of that flavored water per year.
I have a 21 yr old nephew just getting into Organo Gold coffee. It’s kind of sad to watch him get pumped up thinking he’s going to become “a millionare” selling MLM coffee. Organo’s own income disclosure statement puts that in doubt; http://www.organogold.com/income-disclosure-statement/
Note that 86% of those who get involved do basically nothing. The remaining 14% are “leadership” ranks. Only 1.51% people getting into Organo Gold will make more than 20,000/year. .21% attain the top leadership rank. In order to be at the top your downline wholesale volume has to be 5,000,000 per month!
