People aren't being rude for mentioning things against Herbalife. That is costly and dangerous. A good friend wouldn't recommend it to another friend. If anything, I think it's kindness that folks are warning her about that.
To the op...feel free to ask any questions. The only money I spent for my weightloss is a good pair of shoes, a scale, and a Fitbit (for my own personal account ability...not needed).
I would stay away from fad pills that says u can lose weight. I've lost 70 pounds since February 2016 without spending one dollar on a pill
Calorie in and calorie out and lotsa support is the key!!
Herbalife looks similar to slim fast. I'm sure it is costly, but how is it dangerous? Is there something in the formula that's killing people?

I read most of the first two links. It seems like the only proof they have of it causing liver damage is that people who take it get liver damage. (unless I missed something) That's not really great proof considering there are people who take it who don't get liver damage, but it's good enough for me to stay away from it.
Doesn't seem like it's worth the risk when calorie control works so much better for weight loss.
Thanks for the links. Anybody thinking about using Herbalife should check them out or show them to your friends and family if they use it.1
