So six people in Iceland have been hospitalized with hepatitis apparently caused by Herbalife products they were taking. Well, welcome to the Herbalife Hepatitis Club. Next time you’re online google herbalife & hepatitis, and discover the wonderful world of Herbalife and necrosis of the liver.
“A woman can’t be too rich or too thin,? said Wallis Simpson, the Duchess of Windsor and Nicole Richie of her age, which was before Herbalife. Herbalife, in case you don’t know, is a pyramid marketing company that sells nutritional products and litters utility poles with fliers promising both riches and thinness.
This combination has proven irresistible to many, especially us Icelanders. We are always trying to make money on the side, despite enjoying the highest standard of living the country, even the world, has ever known, because we just never have enough. So what could be better than making money through losing weight, your own or somebody else’s? It’s a fantastic concept which plays to our deepest insecurities and greed.

“So six people in Iceland have been hospitalized with hepatitis APPARENTLY caused by Herbalife products they were taking.”
One of them had only four fingers on the left hand, apparently because of the Herbalife products too…

I worked with a young lady in Iceland who contracted Hepatitis a few months after starting Herbalife. She was a healthy young woman and the doctors were baffled.
Her physician suggested she stop taking Herbalife because they had a few other cases of hepatitis in people who were using the products.
Our boss, was her Herbalife rep and told her, ‘do not listen to that doctor, he knows nothing’…’Herbalife is the best thing for you to take while you’re sick’.
This is one of the top selling reps in Iceland, she cared nothing about this girls health…only about what lined her pocket. I will never recommend that product to anyone if that is what they condone. It is all about money to these people.

I think it is very dangerous to make opinions and put them up as thought they are fact. There is so much research being done on a company that is publicly listed on the NYSE.
Not all people do this kind of business for money, to blame a company for the way one person acts is ludicrous. get a life people we eat many things that kill us and all of a sudden a health supplement that has been used by over 40million people around the world successfully is a cause for hepatitus… honestly u think herbalife is the only thing they eat!? why doesnt the doctor take them off food too??
our bodies are in the condition because of how we have treated it over the years not becuase all of a sudden u take a supplement and a month later you get a disease. its ridiculous….
its easy to knock something when you read some reports by some idiot who knows nothing about it and if its in the papers (which makes money form sensationalising reports) why should you suddenly jump on the band wagon?
get the facts people and dont go to a NEWSPAPER to get it. They change their tune weekly about all types of issues. remember weapons of mass destruction.. oh thats right there werent any sorry about the war guys!!!

Hey, first, get more info about how!!!!!!! u get infected by Hepatitis, is not a cause of a “x” product. Im studying medicine and i dont think those products made that. The thing is thats theres people with money interests that they dont like this Herbalife stuff, cause is a big competition.
I think is a casuality and they should investigate more cause this is for me a totally lie!
I been taking this products for 2 year n my mom n dad, who r 67 n 79 years old n they fix many problems in their health. I fixed my uterine pain when i get my period n im so happy. Of course i investigate in a scientific way this products before i took them n theres nothing bad about them if u take them in a good way not exceed it. Like in all things the excess are badly n the deficience too. So its in ur decision!!!
