“Drew did it and didnt think it was worth the cost and thought there were too many supplements… his sister had to stop doing it because she started having stomach pains from how many pills she had to take… hope that helps a little.”

How many of you out there are pimping ADVOCARE as a health product? Did you call all the people you love the most and tell them that they could be making money and enjoying the benefits of HEALTH and WEIGHT LOSS?

Do your loved ones trust you? Is your reputation important? Do you have honor and integrity? Do you want the best for your health in wellness?

I want all of those things. I want the best for my family and I have been looking for a wellness related product that I am comfortable sharing with my friends and family. How long have I been looking into ADVOCARE… Years. I have been watching the company for years and have yet to believe in it.

Today I spoke with a top level earner. $80,000. She makes that a year and you could be too if you want to be like her. I considered it. Yesterday, I was willing to buy in regardless because I know that they have a business model that works. I know I can make money in Advocare. How much money? Enough.

Is money the most important factor in my business choices? No. I value integrity beyond most else. I want to stand behind products I TRUST and I only want to offer my clients the best. I don’t care if it’s expensive. My clients can afford the best because they are the best and they have earned it.

I asked the representative product related questions. I mentioned that I really like the energy drinks, but I am concerned about the sugar. “It is a zero calorie product,” she said.

I smirked inwardly because red vine candy is also marketed as being a zero calorie snack.

“I understand that your package indicates that the product is sugar free, but the inactive ingredients are sugar related compounds I do believe. Am I correct?”

She was defensiveness, “Look I don’t need to defend the product or argue with you. I am NOT a bio-chemist.”

I was irritated. “You don’t need to be a bio-chemist lady. You can be a high school drop out. Read me the names of those THREE inactive ingredients and I will Google them.”

“I don’t have any product in front of me,” was her answer. She took a moment to find a sample, but still did not indulge me with the list. I requested.

The conversation and business was dead in the water. I hung up. She was wasting my time.

THE INACTIVE ADVOCARE INGREDIENTS I ASKED HER TO REPEAT TO ME:

1) MALTODEXTRIN: Maltodextrin is a polysaccharide that is used as a food additive. It is produced from starch by partial hydrolysis and is usually found as a white hygroscopic spray-dried powder.[1] Maltodextrin is easily digestible, being absorbed as rapidly as glucose, and might be either moderately sweet or almost flavorless. It is commonly used for the production of sodas and candy. It can also be found as an ingredient in a variety of other processed foods.

2) SUCRALOSE: Sucralose is an artificial sweetener. The majority of ingested sucralose is not broken down by the body, so it is noncaloric.[4] In the European Union, it is also known under the E number E955. Sucralose is about 320 to 1,000 times as sweet as sucrose,[5] twice as sweet as saccharin, and three times as sweet as aspartame. It is stable under heat and over a broad range of pH conditions. Therefore, it can be used in baking or in products that require a longer shelf life. The commercial success of sucralose-based products stems from its favorable comparison to other low-calorie sweeteners in terms of taste, stability, and safety.[6] Common brand names of sucralose-based sweeteners are Splenda, Zerocal (Bangladesh), Sukrana, SucraPlus, Candys, Cukren, and Nevella.

3) SILICON DIOXIDE: Silicon dioxide, also known as silica (from the Latin silex), is a chemical compound that is an oxide of silicon with the chemical formula SiO2. It has been known since ancient times. Silica is most commonly found in nature as quartz, as well as in various living organisms.[2] Silica is one of the most complex and most abundant families of materials, existing both as several minerals and being produced synthetically. Notable examples include fused quartz, crystal, fumed silica, silica gel, and aerogels. Applications range from structural materials to microelectronics to components used in the food industry.

I was screaming at her when I hung up. “DO YOU WATCH SHARK TANK LADY!!! I AM OUT!”

I don’t like companies that lie to me. It’s not a business I want to invest in for that reason. I have attached proof of their false advertising in case you think my choice was emotional. I am passionate. My head is clear. My clients deserve better.
