K., I can understand your frustration, I don't like MLM's. Been there, done that. However, I think your friend may truly be interested in your health. My oldest son suffered from eczema since he was a toddler. A friend asked me to be a customer at a company I had run from 15-years earlier because it sound MLM'ish. I knew she had had severe eczema and decided to try her product. My son loved it; his eczema was so much better within 3-days and a month later, you would never know he had eczema. He uses the product a couple times a week; nothing else had helped, not even prescriptions.
I became a customer of the company and about 2-years ago, I met a lady at a meeting who is also a customer and became one because a friend of hers thought the vitamins and supplements would help her with her fibromyalgia. Needless to say, every time this lady went to her doctor, he kept asking her what she had changed because her bloodwork was looking better. He reduced her meds. Every time she went in, the doctor asked again, what she was doing different. Her response was always, "I have no idea". Eventually she was off all her meds and told her husband she was going to stop taking the vitamins/supplements because she wanted to restart her weekend shopping at Marshall's and T.J. Max. Her husband asked her, "If the doctor says you are in the best health he has seen you in 15-years and you are off all your meds, why would you stop"? She said a lightbulb went off and she realized what had helped her.
Even though this lady is off her meds, I have told a niece who has fibromyalgia and she will not try the products. She is unable to take stairs, is on steroids and looks swollen in the face, is consistently in the hospital for one reason or another. I would love for her to feel better, but the choice is hers.
I have heard of 'Juice Plus', but I don't know anyone who uses it. I would say, try it. If it makes you feel better and your doctor sees improvement in your health, continue using it. If not, stop.
Everyone has as choice to want better health or stay where they are. Again she is your friend and she is not out to hurt you, but wants you to be in the best health you can be.
Question to everyone, what if your favorite TV doctor suggested you take a vitamin he endorses, which is MLM, would you find out how you could get it and take it, because he says, it will help with something that ails you?
