If these peope were dietitians or had a nutrition degree, I might listen to them. It's all about them tryong to scam you so they can put a few bucks in their pocket. It's not much different than Herbalife or products and sales schemes like those products.


It is also multi-level (pyramind) marketing scheme:

Mona·Vie™ (http://www.monavie.com/%5F/controller.html - broken link)

Straight from www.monavie.com "based on your sales and the product sales of those in the organization you helped create." Reminds me of Amway.
That chip must be really big!

Monavie is nothing like Amway what so ever.

Diabetics know that fruit sugar has to be monitored just like sugar sugar. All fruit fresh as well has sugar!!!!


Some of the MONAVIE EXECUTIVE TEAM:

Henry Marsh, Executive Vice President

They are not the ones trying to sell the product directly to me; it's people like you. The above listed people cannot control what the Monavie "salespeople" say to sell the product. It is a MLM scheme. If you get a cut of other peoples' sales if you get them started, that is definityely MLM.

Tell me it's not MLM? Please, it is, no doubt about it. Multi-level marketing is a system of selling in which you sign up other people to assist you, and they, in turn, recruit others to help them.
