Really? Reduce your chances of getting cancer? Unofficially that is, since they aren't allowed to say that since they aren't FDA approved

Not around me. My sister in law in particular is into it. Not slinging it thankfully, but has been buying the hell out of it.

She did just attended the above mentioned Conference in Jerry World, so she might come back motivated to sell.

My Facebook says otherwise.. It's te only MLM that I see mentioned. And the two guys who keep talking about it are pretty motivated guys, not bored women or anything. One is (was?) a petroleum engineer, the other was into sales as a career.

Spark is the shite.

I'm going to get me a hit of that crack in about an hour or so in order to deal with the heat.

I quit drinking coffee and have replaced it with Spark.

Isagenix is the "thing" for them around here right now. One of my coworkers got me to "try" one of their shakes and it tasted like chalky arse.

I know the 24 day challenge is just vitamins, fish oil, and probiotics. Then they have you on a healthy diet. So basically they charge you a couple hundred bucks for stuff you can probably get for 30 dollars. And none of it really makes you lose weight. The weight loss comes from the healthy diet.



Yep.

Same for whatever brand it is that has the pink drink you drink. It only works "with a healthy eating routine".. which the person probably wasn't doing before. It isn't some magic weight loss drink. It is just a means of forcing you to diet for it to "work".

Thrive is big here in Ga. Soccer moms like it because it is a patch they wear and can show off to their friends.

It's a pyramid scheme like Amway, or Juice Plus.

A couple of people on my Facebook wall are involved. People that I thought should know better.
