Does Reliv Rig It's Own Studies? Reliv IS Over-Priced!

Below is an email that I received from one of our readers. I think the answer to their first question is very simple. Most Reliv / MLM distributors don't care about you. They care about your pocket book. This is the ONLY reason they are selling this stuff. MLMs are like gambling, anything that promises to make a quick easy dollar sucks people in and they can't get out until they push it off on some other poor sap. And as far as the research, I would never trust a company that using it's own people / own scientists to "prove" something is good for you. Especially when these same people are making millions.

"Have you ever talked about the sheer cost of Reliv on your website? I added up the cost of one month's supply of Reliv after I found a distributor's suggested regimen on a squidoo site and looked up average prices on ebay (the only place I could find pricing for the stuff without talking to an annoying distributor!). I don't see how the distributors live with themselves selling this stuff for that price if they truly believe it helps so many people!! I calculated a cost of $365/month for one person! That's just for the basic regimen (NOW, Innergize and Fibrestore)!!

I am also wondering why they call this study they did in Italy on the Glucaffect an "independent" study. I thought independent studies were called such because the people/labs/companies who made the product were not involved at all in the study, and yet Carl Hastings is right there in the author's list...."
