More importantly it serves as a point of marketing for MonaVie as referenced here. Educated people would realize that the study is totally irrelevant, but others who may not be as educated (and thus likely to fall for MonaVie’s scam) might attribute some value to the study.

You can go down the line with all of the studies from Schauss. My favorite one was this extremely poorly conducted study. It sounds impressive until you read it and realize all the problems with it. MonaVie and its distributors are counting on people not reading the study and just saying, “Oh it was done by a doctor and it was in published on a journal covered in Pubmed which is on the National Institutes of Health’s .gov website.” MonaVie focuses on giving only half truths. When you look deeper the lengths they go through to scam people is incredible.

@Jeremiah, you were smart in not wasting your time in this juice melarkey. I know from personal experience it’s a waste of time and money,and it also alienates the distributer from family and true friends.

Bottom line is, eat healthy, get plenty of exercise, and take in as much fresh air as possible. Believe it or not, you’ll be much more healthier and a lot less stressed-out than those busy distributers.

All I kept hearing was how much money you could make by selling monavie, I can’t tell you how many times I heard about “how you can make $2,000 a week” from my buddy’s girlfriend. She seemed to have a success story for every new day of the week, and she reveiled how the person who got her involved makes more money selling monavie then he does with his oil change bussiness. I was never convinced that the drink itself was a miracle cure but I found the way everyone acted in regards to this bottle of juice to be extremly cult like.
At one point I was able to read some material that they give “new recruits” and became so convinced that there was something simply wrong with how this company worked. It seemed that it cost money to do anything, to join it cost a monthly fee to stay active in the monavie team program. My friend was spending well over a $150 a month just to stay involved. What bothered me the most however was how the people started acting once they began to sell this stuff, I mentioned it before but it was very cult like. Eventually my friend realized that he was just bleeding money and he stopped, however his (ex) girlfriend has taken it to the next level by using the cafe as a spring board for her career as a monavie millionare. I admit that I don’t know much about the product itself, but from what I saw first hand about the way they do bussiness I never had any interest in this so called miracle cure all.
