Xango And The FDA

Looks like bad news...

XanGo, maker of an exotic mangosteen juice, claims to be the fastest-growing home-based seller of dietary supplements in history, going so far as to call itself the "iPod of the wellness revolution." Of course, Apple never peddled its hot-selling device by saying it prevents cancer. According to the Food and Drug Administration, that's exactly what XanGo is doing in promotional brochures, violating U.S. law in the process.

Is there a lesson?Yeah... don't make claims that are not FDA approved even if some products help a specific problem. It's all in the words you use....bestbehealthy

Is Network Marketing Just A Scam?

There's a huge difference between network marketing and pyramid schemes. Learn the truth here.

Q: Some friends continue to try to recruit me into network marketing deals that seem like some type of money game or pyramid. Other friends tell me they're illegal and I'll get into trouble. How do I know what's legal and legitimate?
A: To help you understand what network marketing is, I must first explain what it isn't. First, network marketing isn't a pyramid scheme. Pyramids are programs similar to chain letters where people just invest money based on the promise that other people will put in money that will filtrate back to them and somehow, they'll get rich. A pyramid is strictly a money game and has no basis in real commerce. Normally, there's no product involved at all, just money changing hands. Modern-day pyramids may have a product, but it's clearly there just to disguise the money game.
Network marketing is a legitimate business. First, it's based on providing people with real, legitimate products they need and want at a fair price. While some people do make a lot of money through network marketing, their financial benefit is always the result of their own dedicated efforts in building an organization that sells real products and services.

New Product Release!

If you suffer from joint discomfort please read!

Power and strength from science, with the sweet taste of nature.
RegeniCARE® is not and never has been your ordinary run-of-the-mill joint health product. It contains Protectin™, a powerful compound that effectively combines the best of traditional herbs together with glucosamine, chondroitin and MSM, causing them to work in synergy to aid in renewing connective tissue and restoring normal cell growth and development. That’s the best of science at work.
But if you’re already taking RegeniCARE®, we don’t need to tell you it works, you know it does! And when you want to continue to nurture and protect joint health, you really only have one choice, RegeniCARE®.
That’s why we’re pleased to announce that we have created new Raspberry-flavored RegeniCARE®, in addition to the original, Lemon flavor. It’s the very same product, now in two flavors. So you do have a choice, Raspberry or Lemon!
And of course you can rest easy that as usual, we looked to nature when creating this great new product. The new raspberry color is completely natural and sourced from beet powder, and the fresh raspberry flavor comes from natural raspberry powder. Absolutely no artificial flavors or colors were used—and the proof is in the taste!
So if you love RegeniCARE® but would prefer a smooth berry flavor, this is the product for you. And if you love the lemon flavor but think variety is indeed a sweet part of life, then the new product is for you, also.
RegeniCARE® Raspberry is now available in the U.S. and will be available in Canada very shortly. Please note that we are releasing the product while we are still in our initial production run. We expect that we have enough in inventory to sustain sales, but there could be brief periods where we run out temporarily.
