So far this mlm seller had posted misleading claims on crones, ibs, chronic fatigue syndrome and anxiety and depression. This just takes the biscuit.

A mary kay rep told me that she knew a woman who used the makeup, developed a positive attitude and overcame her terminal cancer.

I have a friend heavily into Arbonne (2.5-3 years now), and she continuously posts long-winded diatribes filled with emojis, talking about how she just wants to inspire other people because they too can get their white Mercedes (which she still doesn't have, btw).

@sailorcherries I wish they'd all understand that they're self employed and as such need to register with hmrc. Really annoys me when they think they don't, despite the fact 99% of them wouldn't pay tax on it because they earn £10a year!

Ahhh, thanks Testing!

I hate it too. I am pregnant and have had an Arbonne lady trying to push me into joining her 30 day weight loss group throughout my pregnancy! I told her eventually that I wouldn't do anything in pregnancy without my doctor or Midwife's advice and she hasn't contacted me since.

If I was selling mlm products that I truly believed could cure a friend's cancer I wouldn't be trying to make a profit from her, I'd be giving them to her. Similarly for a friend who had a dc with adhd etc. I hate this crap so much!

I assumed the use of anecdata meant it stopped short of being on trading standards radar? Still bloody misleading though Angry

Oh there are a lot of 'I'll message you hun' comments that go along with these posts. And yep, it's JP!

I'd love to see their supporting evidence based research ...

Hilda I can only hope she's talking about asparagus and not asbergers!
