Plexus Slim Review

There is a lot of buzz lately about Plexus Slim, a weight-loss supplement sold by an MLM called Plexus Worldwide, so I decided to check it out and write this Plexus Slim review. 

Plexus Slim is a powdered supplement that you mix with water. You can request a free sample from Plexus on their website. The two main ingredients in Plexus Slim are chlorogenic acid and oxypregnane steroidal glyoside, which are supposed to work together to boost fat metabolism and suppress appetite. The company website presents positive evidence of this in scientific studies (although only on the ingredients themselves, not the product as a whole). Of course, the website also contains testimonials from people who claim the product worked for them. I take these with a grain of salt. It's not that I don't believe they lost weight while using Plexus Slim, but since you are supposed to use it in conjunction with a diet, they could have lost the weight just from the improvement in their eating habits.

The slogan for Plexus Slim is "At last, an affordable weight management product." I suppose that depends on what you consider affordable. If you want to purchase Plexus Slim one time, it costs $84.95 for a 30-day supply. If you want to be on auto-ship and be billed monthly, it costs $79.95 per month.

Plexus also offers a product called Plexus Slim Accelerator, which contains dark chocolate, caffeine, green tea extract, vanadium, and B-phenylethylamine HCI (none of which will help you lose weight, by the way). Plexus Slim Bio-Cleanse is basically a laxative. These products each cost $39.95 for a 30-day supply.

If you want to participate in the business opportunity and become an "Ambassador", it costs  $99.00 to $199.00 for a Welcome Pack that includes products, a personal website and back office. Plexus Ambassadors receive 15% to 25% commission on their sales over $100. The percentage depends on the total sales they make during the month. And, of course, you can earn more if you recruit a team and they sell product.

Plexus Worldwide seems to be a legitimate company, and they sell actual, consumable products, which is great if you can get people to use them on an ongoing basis. I think the main challenge for anyone starting out would be the price of the products. That being said, someone who has experience in network marketing and is a good salesperson could expect to be reasonably successful with Plexus Slim.

In my opinion, Plexus Slim sounds just like every other weight loss pill or formula that you hear about on television. However, that doesn't mean that investors can't profit from becoming Plexus Slim representatives, or "Ambassadors", if you'd like to feel special. As much as I disbelieve in the practical use of weight loss products, unless they are a pair of dumbbells and some running shoes, marketing Plexus Slim seems like it would be fairly easy and profitable. 

One Plexus Slim testimonial by a woman and her husband claimed that they lost 13 and 21 pounds, respectively, after only a month of using Plexus Slim. The woman also claimed that they did not have to change their dieting or exercising patterns, yet they still lost the weight, which I find a bit hard to believe. 

Another Plexus Slim review also claims, however, that most of the ingredients in Plexus Slim have nothing to do with weight loss, and others can very well produce side effects by themselves, or if ingested while taking other medications. 

Plexus Slim does not sound like a healthy or practical way to lose weight, but if you're just looking to invest some money and hopefully profit off of it, becoming a Plexus Slim "Ambassador" could be a good idea for you.
