The Concept of "Nutrition Club"

What Is it?
The purpose of a Nutrition Club is to bring good nutrition to a community of like-minded individuals who periodically meet and recognize one another for their friendship & nutriton results. Nutrition Clubs also provide a valuable service, informing people about the importance of good nutrition and regular exercise in order to achieve optimum health.

Allows you to introduce people to Herbalife products and build a customer base. For example, most Clubs offer complimentary teas or shakes to their members, and have other products available for standard retail purchase.
Members often enjoy the Club so much that they become customers or Distributors, and many who become Distributors go on to open their own Clubs.


The Benefits:

Flexibility - It can be used in addition to any other DMO that you are using.
Convenience - You can set it up in your home, in an office, or in a community meeting room.

Community Experience - Your customers can familiarize themselves with Herbalife products in a social atmosphere that allows you to create and foster the personal relationship that are the essence of direct selling.

A Natural Setting - The Clubs are an informal, low-pressure environment in which members can talk about the products and the business opportunity.
Retailing Opportunity - Many club members will buy products for personal consumption.

Fantastic Story: Jun Junof (9kgs loss in 1.5 months)

I won't say too much on this story, (other than that I am totally AMAZED at what can happen in such a short period of time with Herbalife), for you can read Jun's own blog!!!


What I will share with you is that, the first day I met Jun, (January 25th), she accepted my invitation & visited my Nutrition Club "KLNC" in Wisma UOA. That day I measured her on the infamous Tanita "Wellness" Scales!


Weight: 84.4kg // Body Fat %: 44.7 // Visceral (Hidden) Fat: 10
Bear in mind that Visceral Fat is considered Excellent below 4, Healthy, 5 - 8, but bad if 9 -12.


After 1.5 months Jun came down from Terrenganu to visit me again at the Club on March 12th:
Weight: 75.5kg // Body Fat %: 40.3 // Visceral Fat: 8


If I am not wrong in guessing, I believe Jun will go all the way and very soon will achieve her target, and for your success so far - WELL DONE!!!

Following on from a very appetizing "divulge" with fantastic images, (one of Jun's newly acquired favourite "meal" recipes), Jun goes on to share her result in her own delicate words, please open in a new window, select by first right clicking on this link:

And since I so kindly asked if she would like to share her pics for my blog, here is a quick glimpse at what it is like to lose 9kgs in 1.5 months, (the photo above, was taken at Genting in early January 2008, and the 2 photos below were taken on the 12th March 2008):








ONCE AGAIN WELL DONE!!!

WATER versus COKE!!

I just love to see a good "spar", and in this battle of the fluids...there can be only one winner!!


Water or Coke ?

I could not believe this.....Very interesting:


WATER

#1. 75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated. (Likely applies to half the world population.)

#2. In 37% of Americans, the thirst mechanism is so weak that it is mistaken for hunger.

#3. Even MILD dehydration will slow down one's metabolism as much as 3%.

#4. One glass of water will shut down midnight hunger pangs for almost 100% of the dieters studied in a University of Washington study.

#5. Lack of water, the #1 trigger of daytime fatigue.

#6. Preliminary research indicates that 8-10 glasses of water a day could significantly ease back and joint pain for up to 80% of sufferers.

#7. A mere 2% drop in body water can trigger fuzzy short-term memory, trouble with basic math, and difficulty focusing on the computer screen or on a printed page.

#8. Drinking 5 glasses of water daily decreases the risk of colon cancer by 45%, plus it can slash the risk of breast cancer by 79%., and one is 50% less likely to develop bladder cancer.


Are you drinking the amount of water you should drink every day?



COKE

#1. In many states the highway patrol carries two gallons of Coke in the trunk to remove blood from the highway after a car accident.

#2. You can put a T-bone steak in a bowl of Coke and it will be gone in two days.

#3. To clean a toilet: Pour a can of Coca-Cola into the toilet bowl and let the "real thing" sit for one hour, then flush clean. The citric acid in Coke removes stains from vitreous china.

#4. To remove rust spots from chrome car bumpers: Rub the bumper with a rumpled-up piece of Reynolds Wrap aluminum foil dipped in Coca-Cola.

#5. To clean corrosion from car battery terminals: Pour a can of Coca-Cola over the terminals to bubble away the corrosion.

#6. To loosen a rusted bolt: Apply a cloth soaked in Coca-Cola to the rusted bolt for several minutes.

#7. To bake a moist ham: Empty a can of Coca-Cola into the baking pan, wrap the ham in aluminum foil, and bake. Thirty minutes before ham is finished, remove the foil, allowing the drippings to mix with the Coke for a sumptuous brown gravy.

#8... To remove grease from clothes: Empty a can of Coke into the load of greasy clothes, add detergent, and run through a regular cycle. The Coca-Cola will help loosen grease stains. It will also clean road haze from your windshield.




FOR YOUR INFORMATION:

#1. the active ingredient in Coke is phosphoric acid. It will dissolve a nail in about four days. Phosphoric acid also leaches calcium from bones and is a major contributor to the rising increase of osteoporosis.

#2. To carry Coca-Cola syrup! (the concentrate) the commercial trucks must use a hazardous Material place cards reserved for highly corrosive materials.

#3. The distributors of Coke have been using it to clean engines of the trucks for about 20 years!


Now the question is, would you like a glass of Water or Coke?

Fantastic Story: Saw SK



A courageous young Malaysian Chinese lady, Saw SK, who happened to meet me at the beginning of February 2008, experienced the club for her 3 free healthy meals, and decided on the spot that she wants to lose weight.

After so many years of gaining weight, as far as she was concerned: "enuff...is enuff".
As most people who work in an office job will know, that after a few years working in a docile manner, (computer & desk), which as a result means less physical activity, add to that: the journey to and fro, most likely car, train or bus, (even more lack of activity)...get home, eat dinner, and very likely have snacks with TV...or enjoy late night supper...aiyo...well after so many years...the body pays the price. Period!

Well no longer for this bold & brave lady. Not only did she decide to start the "weight-loss & shape-up programme" 3 days before CNY, she also made it very clear that she would use it consistently in front of her cherished family; that would be celebrating CNY all around her! Of course she took advantage of the mouth-watering foods, who wouldn't! But true to her commitment, she maintained the use of her Herbalife Shake and Tea twice every single day, replacing 2 of her 3 daily meals. And you want to know what happened next ................... ...................
..........................
....................
...............
.........
.....
come to the club and find out! Ha ha ha, just kidding, ok this once I share:

In under 10days, not only did her clothes lighten up, she got more energy, and is for sure not haggard looking, in fact the opposite, her complexion has turned a light on, and in those 10days she lost an amazing 2.2kg!

While everyone else was putting on weight enjoying their favourite foods for CNY, she did the opposite...lose weight while enjoying her favourite CNY foods! What an amazing gal!

EVEN BETTER NEWS TODAY (Friday February 29th) Saw has lost a total of 4 kgs in just under ONE MONTH!!!And she has shaped up in all the right areas, nd is looking even better! Congratulations Saw!! And what amazing products...hear amazing stories like this and more every single day at the club...see ya!
Oh and here is a little addition, 2 different photos that show that even in the early stages of the programme, the photos show distinct changes in appearance, (judge for yourself). The first image was taken on the 4th February, the 2nd was taken on March 21st:

The Lack of Good Nutrition & Poor Lifestyle Choices!

How come after all the major breakthroughs in Scientific Technology, Medications, Hospital Treatments, the world continues to become sicker,fatter, more tired and more unhealthy?

Here are some diagrams, that can partly answer most of that question:



Due to Globalisation, and the American Dream re-interpreted & spilled out all over the world, the result has seen, a human task force almost completely dependant on computers and sitting down in offices, with the ever increasing propensity to use certain methods of transportation, as opposed to physical movement, and then of course, watching TV, (before, during and after dinner), and finally, eating too much amounts of food, snacks & sugary beverages. Welcome to "Globesity" Age.



In this next diagram, you can see the amount of nutrients allocated to each vegetable/fruit, and how, over these last 20 years, this level of nutrients has had unbelievable & scary decreases! This is all mainly due to the methods applied in today's agriculture, followed by transportation, refrigeration, conservation, even processing. So even with the so called "healthy foods", you must question what actually is and what is not the best for your body.



In the next diagram:
(Upper Arc) Most people give to their body too much of the things that are not good, and as a result, (Lower Arc), their bodies do not get enough of what it should be getting!


Since the year our company started (1980), the scary statistics of all the diet & poor lifestyle related illnesses, (Diabetes, Stroke, Heart Problems, Cancer) are not just increasing, but year in, year out, these numbers are leaping up huge %'s.
Herbalife does have a solution, that has withstood the test of time, and will provide everyone with all the cellular nutrition that their body needs on a daily basis!

Club Characters

A 64 year old American, (former film director), who still plays basketball twice a week, and thanks to taking care of his health, for 20 years, has a body age of a 39 year old, and is now fantastically rich for his amazing story telling capabilities, there is hardly any place in the world you can meet such an exceptional character.

A former air-hostess (from Sweden), who has reclaimed her life back from being stressed, depressed & lack of good nutrition, at 51 looks in great shape, and has a body the age of a 29 year old. Has measurements of 90-70-90, and thighs of 48, you have to see it to believe it!

A beautiful 27year old (from Cameron Highlands), who has lost 4 inches in the last few months, has overcome all skin problems, and has the most infectious of laughs.

A highly ambitious couple (boy from Taiwan, wife from Germany), he gave birth to a 14kg pile of unwanted body fat in under 3 months, and in his own words "no longer looks disgusting", and his darlng wife, not only toned up and looks very fine, also lost 8kgs in the process, if u want to meet the king of excitement, guess what...

A superbly handsome 28year old (Half French & half Scottish), often compared to David Beckham...goodness knows why! Lost 5kgs in 3 weeks, annihilated his 8 cups a day coffee addiction (turning it into a rare commodity/luxury as it should be), will make u laugh with his great life stories and make u envious as his body age is 17years old.

There are so many other characters in the club everyday, sharing whatever they know about life, and getting the same back.

Its fun, its exciting, there's so much to learn, and if you don't become a better person, then u obviously didn't visit the club long enough!

KLN Club, 1st Floor, Wisma UOA 2, Jalan Pinang (near KLCC)

Let Remi know when you want to come & to receive your 3 free meals!

Dr Luigi's Tips (1)







Dr Luigi Gratton M.D., as Vice President of Medical Affairs and Education, coordinates the strategic management of Herbalife's Nutrition Advisory Board to ensure Distributors have a thorough understanding of products, ingredients and their benefits. In addition, he manages the day-to-day operations of the Medical Affairs and Education Department, assuring all Distributor and medical inquiries receive a quick and accurate response.

An extra role Dr Luigi recently acquired was as the Nutrition Expert Coach for the LA Galaxy football players, (including David Beckham), so he also advises them on their nutrition, and of course ensures their use of Herbalife products is done the correct way for their athletic performance.

And of course, as I myself have witnessed at 4 major Herbalife Asia events, Dr Luigi drives the women crazy, he is also very athletic and in the words of the fairer sex, "he is very handsome", (I modified the quote a little, as the original content was too explicit!), anyway at least once a year he will travel to Asia, (Malaysia included), to teach us all how to be healthier people.

Please enjoy some of the below images & tips shared by Dr Luigi:
