im sorry i just had to say something... I dont say this because im an advisor of the product advocare but i say it because i truly stand by... and believe in this product. their are so many skeptics about the products... only because there are SO many other products out there... but nothing can compare... ESPECIALLY at GNC! protein shakes such as muscle milk ect. has HIGH amounts of arsenic, lead and mercury! crazy right? my husband is spec. ops in the navy and we were blown away by what these GNC products really contain that they dont put on the nutrition label. anyone can copy and paste CRAP onto vitamin bottles and sell it from GNC stores and it doesnt have to be approved thru the FDA. i loved advocare product so much me and my husband invested and share the product with our family and friends. it is NOT a pyramid scheme at all. Its all direct sales and you are paid thru the company, so your technically not making any money off anyone else... its all performance based. thermoplus is amazing, i love spark and slam! my mom loves herbal cleanse. and these products are so safe your children can take them as well! This product is also sooo amazing because we have a board of scientists that made the product themselves and make sure it is safe to use.. just go onto advocare.com and you can look up the board of scientists if you want proof. but i cant say it enough we LOVE advocare and we are ALWAYS happy to just share the product and the business with our loved ones! hope this helps
