Oh, It's not for me. Our relative got into it, and we want to convince her to get out of it!!! but she's a doctor, and she says it looks ok and she needs more proof than internet stories.
Personally I don't believe in miracles, and I know from personal experience that if you want to have good abs - you need to do crunshes for hours, not use an easy-slick machine for 2minutes in 3 days. So believe me, i think it's bollocks. But my concern is about the product itself. One of the rumours we heard is it contains some sort of addictive drug that makes you want to use the stuff and that it actually ruins your health. We know a family who had 2 members get cancer diagnosis pretty much after they were using this Herbalife - coincidende or not, but it's scary for sure. Another friends of ours used it and had to quit as the husband started having heart problems. So quite a number of people i know on friends level who tried the stuff and had problems. But now it's a family member who we just can't convince and of course it's a little more closer to home now, and I'm worried. I've no idea how to argue this case...
I don't have link on it directly, but HERBALIFE in google will get you all the info, surely.

Apparently the founder of it died at age of 44 from drug misuse.. go figure.
