Herbalife

Hi Guys first time using BOARDS.Has anyone used Herbalife. If so would you recommend it for weight loss?

discus

It's a right scam mate. It's a company that makes more money from selling the rights to distribute, than from selling its actual products. It's getting big over here in the UK, with every Tom Dick and Harry pushing products on their mates, and then trying to sell them the 'rights' to distribute. It's very much like a pyramid scheme. I didn't rate the products I tried, expensive for the quantity I got.

Sorry, I'm just ranting! There are many products from herbalife, and they will sell you whatever they can and tell you it'll help you lose weight. In reality, eating properly will do a far better job.

This has been doing the rounds on my fitness industry friends FB pages due to the volume of people we get trying to sign us up as distributors

PLEASE dont buy into this, it has taken over the town I live in, its like a Cult!!!!!

Herbalife products are just supplements and as said a million times over on this forum, supplements should be used for what you are missing in your regular diet. Weight loss is simply eating less calories than you need, there is no magic product.

Thanks Guys. I didnt like the way they were trying to get me to sell it to my friends,but the product does look good with some big name backers. i.e Ronaldo & Messi

I'd say Ronaldo and Messi would back Hitler rising from the grave to oversee a new apartheid project in Africa if the price was right!!

hey all

ok i do not know much about Herbalife. i work with Forever Living. and one of my customer ask me what was the difference between Forever Living and Herbalife Aloe Vera. i did not even know Herbalife did Aloe Vera. so i was curious to see. this is what i found.

Herbalife Aloe Vera has 40% Aloe Vera form Concentrated. (Concentrated is a process where you heat every thing up to a high heat to evaporate the liquid out of the content. now it is much cheaper to ship because it is not as heavy.)
Forever Living Aloe Vera has 99.5 % stabilized. (Stabilized is where they take the contents and add ingredients to keep the content as close to its real form as it can.)

herbalife you get a bottle of 473ml and it cost you 39 euro and two flavors. Aloe and Mango
Forever Living you get a bottle of 1ltr it cost you 27-37 euro and you have 4 flavors. Aloe, orange, berry, peach.

now i am not downing Hearblife in any means i just compered the products.

and as for them being pyramid scams. well it not so much a scam but it is a pyramid you have to build a down team. but think of it this way you are at the top of the pyramid and the person you sponsor they become the top of there pyramid. if you have 3 people in your own team you only have to deal with them. but when one of your 3 people gets 3 people now they have to only deal with them and check in with you. do you see what i mean about being at the top of your pyramid. of course as your down team grows this starts to push you up the ladder. this this also push your up team higher up the ladder to. but we always have to start at the bottom of the ladder First before we can move up it.

but all products are real and the company's have spent a lot of money get the product right. and why would we not want a company that gives back to their distributors. Forever Living Ireland pay out 237,227.03 euros in Christmas bonus checks. at the company global rally in April 2013. one guy from Germany was paid a check for 1,191,958.92 euro. one of their largest check ever. would you not like a company to pay you a check with a couple of zeros in it? and the best part i like is that my up team manger is making a nice earn off of Forever Living. she appears in the monthly magazines as fell as your future booklet we use to sponsor others. so i think that's cool and i can show other that it is real.

i do see the family and friend pushing is a bit much. i have had trouble with this part. my family and friends make little money and cant afford so you turn to other mean and ways. the job is not easy. my god it is not easy. but it can be done and you can make money off of these company's. but my advice don't do the same company every one else is doing then you are just trying to convince people to change people. try something new. give them some new to think about.

sorry i don't know if this answer any thing it was a mad rant i just wanted to let out
wish you best of luck

I lost over 6 stone using Herbalife products and their nutrition classes [and exercise, clearly], and have kept that weight off for a few years and counting.

Do a search, I have talked about it on here in the past.

I dont resell anymore and I'm not involved with the company in any way, for no real reason other than life is busy.

Why are people so adverse to just eating real unprocessed food? When did it become so evil?
Educate yourselves, please! Read, learn & stop looking for an easy way out! There are plenty of professional people on this forum giving out truck loads of advice that works - and for free! And none of it involves drinking 3 shakes of chemicals per day!

Unfortunately there isn't a magic pill - if only

Herbalife is based science Healthy Nutrition. It is not only for weight management..It is a huge company with 32 years in the market and on the New York Stock Exchange Market.. You have UCLA University of California Los Angeles behind Herbalife Nutrition and best teams and athletes in the world supporting and sponsoring Herbalife..and also a Nobel Prize winner.. I use Herbalife Nutriton as Healthy Breakfast .. It has really changed my life, my body, my skin and all my general well-being.. All my family uses this one too. As it is very easy to became distributors you will find stupid people who will tell you.. you will become rich with Herbalife business doing nothing.. That is of course not true.. But the Herbalife Nutrition is really awesome! Go ahead without doubts..
As Herbalife doesn't sell products directly to you..only deal with distributors you need to find a Herbalife Independent Distributor to buy from them.. . You need to find a good Herbalife coach who will help you to get what you are looking for and personalized your programme..

Think of protein shakes as a top up for the protein you're lacking rather than a meal replacement.

Even better suggestion however is to get your protein naturally I.e food.

This forum is giving me more laughs than any other on boards so far.
Just have to put that out there.

It's a crazy existence. I just want to buy a Vinellla shake from distributors around cork and they won't unless I join a program....crazy !

greeneye

One will never know because you can't buy a shake except to sign up with a coach for a program. I met loads of them in shopping centres permotions and all I want is 1 tin of vinella shake to give me a kick start in Cork like I did 3 years ago and nobody will until I join a program ! Load if crap!
