My experience with Reliv

I too was going to order this very expensive product from Karen. I trusted her because she was from the boards. Well, she pushed and pushed and also emailed me stories of how she could now eat anything she wanted: ice cream, fried french fries and McDonalds Big Macs,....anything. She said that she had started it out of desperation after living with some nurse who put her on it. I thought I had found my miracle for IBS. Karen told me that she no longer had any problems and that she was "Happy as a Clam" now that she could eat anything and had no IBS symptoms at all.

When I hadn't ordered her products, she then forwarded my email address to another distributor (in hopes of gettin more testimonial and assurance) who gave me the same stories and that if I didn't want to order from Karen that she would be my distributor (nice of her to try and steal a customer from Karen, huh).

I am glad now that I didn't spend the 100 dollars that I never really had. Yet, I still wonder if I gave up my chance for a possible cure because I didn't have the money. I still wonder if maybe there may be some validity to Karen's story. I would hate to think that she was just a plant on the boards who used this web site to sell her product. I wonder if she really is well from her IBS and can eat anything she wants. I am still tempted to try this, as I would pay anything or do anything for the freedom of my pain and symptoms permanently and to be able to eat anything I wanted!
