The TRUTH about Nutrition Supplements in Network Marketing

Why people need nutrition supplements in the 21st century

Until the second half of the twentieth century, most people died of infectious diseases like influenza, polio, tetanus, diphtheria, whooping cough, plague, typhoid, typhus, smallpox and the like. With the discovery of anti-biotics, and mass immunisation campaigns, very few people die of these diseases any more.

Nowadays we die of lifestyle-related diseases like cancer, heart-failure, strokes and diabetes. Many of these are linked to malnutrition. Not the sort of malnutrition encountered in under-developed countries, where people don’t have enough to eat. In developed countries, malnutrition is typically caused by eating too much food, the wrong kinds of foods or, believe it or not, by removing or destroying the nutrients in the foods we eat.

People complain that fruits and vegetables no longer look, taste, smell or feel as good as they used to and blame it on depleted soils, pesticides, irradiation and other causes. The real reason these foods don’t look, taste, smell or feel as good as they used to is because today’s growers produce crops to meet the needs of modern supermarket distribution systems.

The simple truth is that appearance, taste, smell and texture have NOTHING to do with nutritional value.

But even when we do eat the right foods, especially fruits and vegetables, we usually prepare and cook them in ways we learned from previous generations who knew almost nothing factual about nutrition.

Most of the nutrients end up in the garbage or down the drain, while we feast on the nutrient-depleted pulp left behind!

We eat too many of the wrong foods — foods full of refined sugar, fats and flours, like convenience foods, fast foods, processed foods, prepared meals, TV dinners, snack foods, sweets — and not enough of the right foods, or in the right balance.

FACT: The problem isn’t our foods… it’s our crazy, self-destructive modern lifestyle!

It’s ironic that, at a time when we know more about growing nutritious foods than ever before, people can’t understand

• why they lack energy,
• why they sleep poorly,
• why they suffer from so many allergies,
• why they’re malnourished,
• why their immune systems are so compromised, or
• why so many of them suffer from an epidemic of self-inflicted, lifestyle-related diseases.

Their bodies are starved of proper nutrition!

And that situation is not about to change.

If anything, it’s growing worse as people find themselves

• working longer hours,
• enduring greater stress,
• in relationships starved of the time, relaxation and freedom needed for them to bloom and grow.

Is it any wonder that surveys consistently indicate that we’re less satisfied and happy than ever? And that this has a negative impact on our physical, mental, emotional and spiritual well-being?

Why the right product philosophy is so crucially important right now!

The proper MLM nutrition product philosophy is a simple one: in an age when individuals are unable to maintain proper nutrition because of the demands of their lifestyles, our high-quality, high-efficacy nutrition supplements have a genuine and significant role to play.

Combined with the right income opportunity and business support system, they provide a holistic, fully-integrated solution to the great dilemma facing modern men and women.

The Modern Dilemma

We all want to be happy, whatever we perceive happiness to be. It’s perfectly natural.

Today, happiness depends largely on two essential components:

• The quality of our physical health.
• The quality of our relationships.

Both are undermined by one common factor:

• Stress.

Stress is typically caused by two fundamental deficiencies in our lives:

• Not enough disposable income.
• Not enough free time.

(If you think pressure at work is your biggest cause of stress, think again. Would it even be a consideration if you had enough disposable income to resign?)

The right holistic solution — including the right nutrition products — helps people to be happier in five key ways:

1. Better health from regular consumption of our high-quality nutrition supplements.
2. More disposable income from the sale of our nutrition supplements and multiple income streams.
3. More free time from using our powerful, fully-integrated business support systems, combined with their growing income.
4. Less stress because they have more free time and more disposable income.
5. Better relationships because of their improved physical, emotional, mental and spiritual health, and the elimination of stress.

In a nutshell…

We’re not in the medical profession. We do not cure, treat or prevent any kind of medical condition.

We’re not in the pharmaceuticals industry. We do not sell medicines or remedies of any kind.

We do not sell miracle products. The real miracle is the human body. If it receives the right nutrients, it can grow, maintain, protect and repair itself very efficiently and effectively.

We’re in the nutrition industry. We market high-quality, high-efficacy, high-value FOOD.

WARNING!

No matter what improvements you think you see in the health or medical condition of yourself, your family members, your customers or anyone else who uses your nutrition products, you cannot be certain that these improvements are attributable specifically to your products. It’s the body that effects the cure, not the products. All we do is provide the body with high quality nutrients.

Your products are not designed or formulated to treat, prevent or cure specific medical conditions or illnesses. You may not claim that they are, or that they have this effect, no matter what you believe.

To do so is illegal and may result in loss of your distributorship. It may even result in regulatory authorities prosecuting you for breaching the strict laws and regulations governing nutrition products.

It may also result in the loss of your company’s right to market its products in your country — which may result in not only the company suing you for loss of opportunity and income, but any network members who lose opportunity and income as a result of your illegal actions.

It’s not worth the risk!

Stick to the known facts, and the legal limits of what the law permits you to say in promoting the sale of nutrition supplements.
