Arbonne 30 Days to healthy living

Kathryn41057 · February 2017

Has anyone tried this? A few people that I work with are doing this 30 Days now, and they speak highly of their products.
I know that you have a shake 2x a day, and then have a regular dinner. There is a detox tea, and omega 3's.

Looks like another MLM scam, especially if they want to pass off anything that "detoxes"

Thanks. I was just wondering. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

Why do you say this? Is it impossible to detox?

No. But you'd have to have ingested poison/something toxic to the body or be an addict. In which case you need medical help and not tea. Everything else your liver and kidneys takes care of and needs no help.

Arbonne is an MLM bunch of woo. I know someone who sells it and the amount of utter unscientific nonsense she posts is mind boggling. And as with all of these companies, you get the exact same products of the same or higher quality much cheaper elsewhere. Steer clear.

MLM gimmick. To lose weight the only thing you need to focus on is being at the correct calorie deficit for your weight goals. No expensive shakes, supplements or magic teas necessary

I recently looked into their products and I personally would not use them. They seemed very gimicky.

How would that be "Healthy eating"? You're not really eating anything.

Jules_farmgirl · February 2017

I agree that is nothing fancy. Also just to speak for the products... my friend sells Arbonne and gave me two sample shakes to try (I did not ask, she offered) one was the protein shake, the other was the meal replacement. Both tasted terrible and I couldn't choke them down. I prefer shakes that I enjoy the taste of.

If you're only eating one meal a day, *that's* the reason for the weight loss. Nothing 'magic' going on here, just another unhealthy, unsustainable MLM money grab.

You have to consider what you think you're detoxing *from* exactly?

If you've ingested anything truly heinous that your kidneys can't eliminate from your body all on their own, you need a hospital, and not a "detox tea."

Ain't that the truth!! I lost 32lbs just by daily at home exercises and calorie deficit. No expensive shakes, pills etc.

The only thing that will be healthy, is Arbonne's share price from all the people that fall for their BS marketting.

Eat a calorie deficit and real food.

One of my co-worker introduced me to Arbonne. She was in the 3rd week of detox then. I purchased the program for 28 days. I'm on 6th day of the program. I've seen good change on weight with higher energy level. I'm no way related to Arbonne sales and also not sure how much their products are contributing but I'm doing my daily workout, having a close check on calories and eating tons of veggies. One thing I can say, it helped me to be disciplined!

if something 'helps you to be disciplined' and you feel it is worth the money - Sure.

Mind you, 6 days is early to tell if something will do this for the duration.

As long as you realise that what is crucial to the weight loss is the calorie intake, not whether you acheive that with shakes, programs etc - or not.

I know 'placebo discipline tools' can work for some people - I have a few home grown ones that work for me; eating ice cream with a teaspoon for example - makes it last longer and seems more than it is.

But the teaspoon is a placebo tool - nothing magic about it and it isnt acheiving weight loss in itself.
Likewise the shakes and the detox teas - they are only, at best, helping you stick to calorie deficit

Lol. I prefer salad forks and teaspoons for most eating. I don't think it's to make food last longer, because I've always preferred them.

I pay $10 a month for a gym membership - which I actually use. (So many people I know sign up for gyms and then never go. What's up with that?) And that's all I pay for my health and fitness. No magic pills or potions, special food or programs. All that other stuff is just a waste of money, in my opinion. Why pay for something you can get for free on your own through a little hard work and perseverance?

P.S. Technically, you don't even need a gym, really. I just like the convenience and versatility of it, and it is actually useful vs. that other crap, so I'm willing to pay for it.

paperpudding · February 2017

I agree jenilla - so, for you, a gym membership is worth the money.

I can see programs like WW are worth the money for some people and pricey plastic portion control containers are for others. Or fitbits and suchlike.
and little things like teaspoons are for others like me.

All these things of course only help as tools to create a calorie deficit either decreasing calories in or increasing calories out.

So, theoretically if somebody knows this about shakes and teas and still feels the best use of their weight loss money is to join such a program - good luck to them.

many cheaper ways - and IMO more sustainable ways - but to each their own.
