Amway Wants To Shut Down Amway Wiki
by Ted Nuyten • • 0 Comments
For many years an Amway rep runs the www.thetruthaboutamway.com website and Amway Wiki. Seems the Amway Business Conduct & Rules department wants the website to shut down.
The Truth About Amway website:
“Years ago there was a website called Quixtar Wiki. It was run by Amway and Quixtar critics and they filled it essentially with criticism and anything negative they could find about the Amway and Quixtar businesses, and some stuff that was just plain made up.
Any time you searched for a Diamond’s name, it would rank near the top of Google’s listings. So, if you invited some prospect to come to a seminar to listen to a successful Amway achiever, they’d google the person’s name and end up on a virulently anti-Amway website”
Good stuff, eh?
So nine years ago I started Amway Wiki, which would give a true picture of the business. I wouldn’t hide the negative – court cases, divorces, terminations, whatever – that kind of information is there too. But so is all the positive stories of the thousands of Diamonds around the world. Today, if you invite one of your prospects to a meeting to hear from an Amway Diamond, and they google the name, odds are AmwayWiki will be

Holton Buggs And Shane Morand – Organo Gold Commissions Analyzed
by Ted Nuyten • • 0 Comments
There is a lot of discussion going on about Organo Gold’s compensation plan.
Both Holton Buggs as Shane Morand – Global Master Distributor have done a tremendous job by building up in a short time frame a $215 million USA business according to well informed Direct Selling News.
According to a well informed high ranked OG distributor the $215 million is most likely only USA revenue.
An estimated $100 million extra revenue is from the rest of the world.
Both Holton Buggs as Shane Morand cash in over $1+ million a month, they are listed for est. $400,000 per month as the Business For Home ranks are based on the regular compensation plan and not on off compensation plan deals.
Nothing wrong with extra rewards for top producers however if those rewards are not for the average Joe we do not count those rewards for the ranks.
A legit compensation plan pays out on average 35 – 38% over the company sales. Organo Gold distributors claim it is higher in their pay plan however a non internet based product company like Organo Gold can not pay out more then 45%. Otherwise either your products are extremely over priced or you go in debt.
Lets assume Organo Gold

Dr. Vincent Giampapa – Nominated For Nobel Prize In Medicine
by Ted Nuyten • • 0 Comments
Medical advisor at Jeunesse is honored for his Stem Cell research.
Dr. Vincent Giampapa, medical advisor at Jeunesse, was recently nominated for a 2014 Nobel Prize in the area of Stem Cell Research. The Nobel Prize Nomination was given for the potential impact Dr. Giampapa’s technology may have on the global aging epidemic as well as the financial impact of future health care in all countries with aging demographics, especially in the United States.
“My work in Stem Cell Research has its origin in the new science of Epigenetics—that is, the ability to help cells work more optimally so that people age efficiently.
This is the same concept behind what was designed into the Jeunesse AM & PM Essentials formula. The use of a specific combination of naturally-occurring plant compounds creates a synergistic effect inside the 50 trillion cells that make up the body.
The result is something you can feel and see in just a very short time: like visibly younger looking skin as well as more energy to face daily challenges. Epigenetic research has facilitated amazing new products like AM & PM Essentials, and this recent Nobel Prize Nomination, for which I’m grateful.”

Fat: The War Is Over
by Ted Nuyten • • 0 Comments
Time Magazine and MonaVie Nutrition Expert Mark Macdonald Call for Cease-Fire
The “Fat-Free” craze has been scientifically proven to be a bust!
Pathologist Ancel Keys appeared on the cover of Time Magazine in 1961, claiming that saturated fats in the diet clogged arteries and caused heart disease.
In stark contrast, the June 23, 2014, cover of Time Magazine reads, “Scientists labeled fat the enemy. Why they were wrong.”
Read the full article here: Ending the War on Fat
A little bit of vindication for those who have known for years—or all along—that the war on fat was misguided. But it was no easy task being heard over the media marketing campaign that has flooded the airways and our supermarket shelves over the past few decades.
So, today, it’s sweet validation for those—like MonaVie nutrition and fitness expert Mark Macdonald—who have preached moderation and promoted having a healthful balance of protein, fats, and carbs with each meal. “The Time Magazine piece keeps the conversation moving in our direction and helps show why having fat in each meal is so important,” says Macdonald.
Mark Macdonald appeared on Headline News (HLNTV.com) this week with host Mike Galanos to explain how fat can be your friend and why we
