Morinda Joins Top Researchers With Breakthrough Discovery

 
Known for its scientifically groundbreaking research and age-fighting products, Morinda was invited to speak to researchers around the world about the incredible results that its product trials have rendered.
Morinda’s Sr. Director of Research & Development Brett West gave two presentations at the 12th International Symposium on the Maillard Reaction, an event title-sponsored by Morinda where numerous scientists, professors and researchers presented new information relevant to the Maillard Reaction.
The Maillard Reaction is the chemical reaction between amino acids and reduced sugars that gives browned foods their flavor. The delicious and seemingly harmless Maillard Reaction is a step in the formation of advanced glycation end-products, or AGEs—the harmful compounds that contribute to the deterioration of the body.
Morinda’s TruAge Core products were developed to specifically reduce existing AGEs in the body and prevent their formation in

“The Most Interesting Man In The World” Was An MLM’er

 
In a recent Forbes Life interview, ‘the most interesting man in the world’, Jonathan Goldsmith, reveals that not only is he a network marketer, but a successful one at that;

“Life doesn’t always imitate art, but when it does, it prefers Jonathan Goldsmith.” So might run a tagline for Mr. Goldsmith, the actor whose own storied career bears uncanny resemblance to that of his most famous character: The Most Interesting Man In The World. The character is the wildly popular spokesman for the Dos Equis beer brand, who signs off every commercial with his own very similar catchphrase. But while Goldsmith’s list of achievements is impressive – everything from saving multiple people from death, to befriending Barack Obama – it encompasses a rags-to-riches-to-rags-to-riches story that’s even more engrossing than his aspirational alter-ego.

“I promise I’m not the most interesting man in the world,” Goldsmith is

Tables Turn In Ackman VS Herbalife Battle

 
Bronte Capital, an Australian-licensed and USA-registered fund manager, posted on its blog a response from the Securities and Exchange Commission to a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requesting any documents pertaining to “investigative market manipulation in Herbalife stock by or on behalf of Pershing Square.”
The SEC refused to respond to the request and stated that it the agency can withhold records if it is “compiled for law enforcement purposes.” However, the letter does go on to note that by withholding documents, Pershing Square, or any related parties, is not necessarily being investigated for any violations.

The SEC’s statement made it clear: “The assertion of this exemption should not be construed as an indication by the Commission or its staff that any violations of law have occurred with respect to any person, entity, or security.”

What All MLM’s Need To Take Away From The Vemma VS FTC Case

 
The results came in from Judge Tuchi regarding the Vemma hearing this week and it was met, not surprisingly, with an array of comments — mostly people misreading the information. While the ruling was far from victorious in this case, it can certainly be victorious for the network marketing industry if taken seriously. The largest component in MLM in the past has been the recruiting tactics involve in building a team, mostly met with animosity from the outside world. This was prevalent in the hearing on Tuesday when incentives, the 70/30 rule, autoship, and income claims were mentioned time and time again. 
Will companies take this seriously and overhaul their approach? If so, who will be first? Some changes the FTC would most like to see, based on their testimony is the following;

Vemma Ruling In – Judge Makes Profound Decision

 
After the Vemma hearing that was held this Tuesday, the judge took his 3 days to make a decision. Essentially, the injunction was granted in part and denied in part.

Tom Alkazin argues that the FTC has not met its burden to show he is liable under the FTC Act for Vemma’s operation of a pyramid scheme, and the Court agrees. Accordingly, the Court denies the FTC’s request for a preliminary injunction against Mr. Alkazin with regard to the operation of an illegal pyramid scheme.
An asset freeze was not warranted by the court due to the fact that the FTC did not provide adequate documentation that Vemma would be deceptive and this would be required. 
A receivor has no longer been granted

The Court is mindful that allowing the Corporate Defendants to resume operation of their business and unfreezing associated

What Happened To WakeUpNow?

 
Just over a year ago, everyone was being inboxed or called about joining WakeUpNow. Then, suddenly, they fell off the face of the earth — or rather, they regrouped and renamed themselves to Disrupt. WakeUpNow launched in 2009 and over its six years of operation failed to generate a significant amount of retail sales. The officially collapsed earlier this year when they closed down their US facilities. 
Not even three months has passed since WakeUpNow collapsed, with former President Jason Elrod now gearing up to launch “Disrupt”.
Aptly named considering how many lives WakeUpNow going under disrupted, the naming of Elrod’s new company is probably not going to be appreciated by ex-WakeUpNow affiliates.
At the time WakeUpNow announced they were no longer conducting business in the US, said affiliates were owed months of unpaid commissions.
However, now
