On November 1, natural bodybuilder Darrin Grosenick won several honors in the International Natural Bodybuilding Federation’s Canada Western National Championships. Grosenick, who is also a Vísi Arctic 3-Star Partner, has been using Vísi products as his exclusive supplementation regimen and has found incredible results.
At 48, Grosenick says he’s in the best shape of his life, with “incredible energy, incredible flexibility—at the competition, I was like a 10-year-old on a playground.” Even competing against men half his age, Grosenick won first place in the Lightweight category. He also earned top honors in the Master’s class and earned his Pro card, allowing him to compete in events around the world.
He attributes much of his success to consistently using the entire Vísi product line. He says what he likes best about Vísi’s certified clean products are “how natural and clean they are—every ingredient has a specific purpose. Everything is synergistic.”
Grosenick’s “Road 2 Ripped” journey began in February as he returned to the gym to get competition ready and “completely stayed true to the products.” His daily supplementation regimen begins with something he laughingly calls “the bomb,” a Vínnle supplement for focus, a Probíta hydrolyzed collagen chew, and an Energy drink mix with water.

Amway India In Trouble Again For Questionable Laws
by Tina Williams • • 0 Comments
Two social workers moved the Nagpur bench of Bombay High Court against Amway Company accusing it of selling many products without approval from Food Safety and Standard Authority. Sachin Khobragade and Jammu Anand claimed in their PIL (No. 69/2014) that the company got approval to sell only four products, but it was selling 36 products, flouting the norms.
A division bench comprising justices Bhushan Gavai and Vinay Deshpande then issued notices to Food Safety and Standard Authority through its chief executive officer, union health secretary, food safety commissioner and Amway India Enterprises Limited, asking them to reply within three weeks.
The petitioners stated that nutrilite products sold by the company didn’t comply with strict quality and quantity norms and labels used on its boxes were misleading. They had apprised of the Food and Drugs Administration (FDA) commissioner many a times but no action was taken. They demanded investigations into all its products from the Food Safety and Standard Authority.
