    Plexus and other multilevel marketing supplements are generally frowned upon on these boards based on their false claims and subpar ingredients and the fact that they are often sold by people with 0 nutrition knowledge.

    Just letting you know where the pushback is coming from.

    I would like to let you know that it is not a scam please do research thank you!
    They are all natural supplements and most are better than you can buy from a vitamin store.
    Plexus does not make false claims to anything!

    My personal experience with MLM is when I was a child, my mom had a grand mall seizure / stroke while on the phone with "coach / ambassador" and they didn't give 2 fks.

    how do you know they are safe? because they told you? did you ever research the ingredients and look up their side effects(I have)? how do you know they are better supplements than what you can buy in the store? you know that how? looks like a lot of sugar sources and stimulants to me,also there is no proof medical/scientifically that hoodia(Oxypregnane Steroidal Glycoside,which can elevate blood pressure and heart rate),green tea,garcinia cambogia(citrin k) work to help aid weight loss.This is not regulated by the FDA,nor has it been clinically tested.The ALA in it can lower blood sugar which can be harmful to diabetics who take meds such as insulin and it can lower thryoid hormone levels,harmful to those who take meds for this. so how can any of these things be safe? a lot of the ingredients have the same side effects as well. couple that with all the rest and for some people thats a ticking time bomb. oh and the FDA sent a letter to the CEO-http://www.fda.gov/ICECI/EnforcementActions/WarningLetters/2014/ucm411287.htm
