Erin Bies | Optavia is Getting More and More Desperate! | #antimlm | #erinbies | #optavia @ErinBies | Uploaded July 2024 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
These videos were sent to me. Thank you to the individual that sent them my way so we can talk about it here. You guys are a very important part of the Anti MLM Movement and are very much appreciated.
Optavia is a Multilevel Marketing company that sells prepackaged products and extremely restrictive ways of eating. In my opinion, this company teaches people to have a terrible relationship with food and is dancing the line of exhibiting disordered eating.
They claim that people only stay on the 5 and 1 Plan for 12 weeks but there are countless stories of people that were influenced by their uplines to get back on "plan." The 5 and 1 plan instructs people to take in 800-1000 calories a day for adults and I've seen some kids taking their products. It's beyond alarming. Their products have been reviewed by several other creators that I will link below.
In this video we are going to see one of their reps targeting specific groups of people and offering to pay for some of their products. They call these "Wellness Credits" and it typically comes out of the Distributors pocket because they are desperate for customers and "coaches." Please do not fall for this kind of scheme. You are going to be so much better off working with a Registered Dietician and learning how to navigate building a complete plate and developing a healthy relationship with food.
