FDA has advised that consumers with diabetes,high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or heart disease often take nitrates. FDA has advised thatED is a common problem in men with these conditions, and consumers may seek these types of products to enhance sexual performance.

Sorry Doc, I stepped on your toes on this one, I didn't know you already had this post when I did one with the same name. If you want, I'll change the title, although I bet having two of them up might get more people to read about it. In any event, pretty amazing stuff huh? Watchdog had it nailed with that "typo" lol

Regeneca Recall Phase II:

Do you people really spend your time in trying to be right? Why don't you go out and build your business and support the industry instead of being these whinny pathetic people! Do you lead your team this way with the negative or do you lead with a positive mind set? Oh I know your here in these forums to try and convert people in your deal by trying to prove your right and you know all! If thats the case show us your check! That probably isn't happening so why don't you become a force for good and support the industry instead!

Interesting - seems to be all part of the lack of professionalism in the MLM industry, to defend your company/product no matter the charge.

There is a world of difference between having a positive frame of mind and not listening to the 'haters' of the industry who just try to tear you down, and having a company potentially misleading consumers.

Take the 'Truths' argument and apply it to any other industry, and it sounds naive at best. Why is the government recalling my car for a potentially fatal flaw? Just think positive and don't be a hater!  Why is the government not allowing this new drug? Don't be a hater!

sad.

Do you people really spend your time in trying to be right?

No, not really. "Trying to be right" would imply that the posts in these forums about Regenerect were wrong, when for all intents and purposes all the prophetic warnings about the ingredients being potentially mislabeled in fact turned out to be 100% correct. Is that what you mean by trying to be right?

Why don't you go out and build your business and support the industry instead of being these whinny pathetic people!

It doesn't seem like anyone is whining, simply pointing out a fact. The FDA whacked Regenerect because of illegal prescription ingredients. Who is responsible for the contents of the consumable product? Regenerect of course. Not really getting the 'whinny pathetic part" but I'm pretty sure that "whinny" sound more like what a horse does.

 Do you lead your team this way with the negative or do you lead with a positive mind set? Oh I know your here in these forums to try and convert people in your deal by trying to prove your right and you know all! If thats the case show us your check!

I know I personally haven't posted a single thread or response trying to convert anyone into another deal. Reading through all the Regenerect and Regeneca threads, I don't see anything of that kind anywhere either. Do you assume that because someone points out a glaring flaw in a deal you happen to be promoting that it means they have some ulterior motive besides simply hoping to help someone from being scammed in the future?

That probably isn't happening so why don't you become a force for good and support the industry instead!

Any time someone educates the marketplace and helps prevent people from being scammed - or from taking a consumable product promoted by a company that went to great lengths to claim that it contained only natural ingredients - that's supporting the industry.

Your philosophy seems to be that you need to have a "positive mind set" when promoting a company that could potentially have caused a great deal of harm to the health and well being of people who trusted their claims.

Did you write a complaint letter to the FDA? Maybe you should let them know you think they should have a 'positive mind set' when checking for illegal prescription levels of drugs in your company's products.

Maybe when the FTC or the Attorney General gets around to looking into this ( I'm guessing there's a 90% chance that will happen sometime soon ) you can give them the same advice too.

One last thought for your 'positive mind set' - had you sold or given a sample of the tainted product to a friend or family member who was taking another medication or had a condition that was severely adversely affected, causing permanent harm or even death, would you be thinking 'positive' about your 'check'?

How's that "postiive thinking" attitude working out for you "TruthSetsYouFree"?

Regenerect is on their third recall. Not sure how much more wiggle room the FDA is going to give them.

Making any money yet?

Jangowarrior, I don't think in any of my coffee-induced pyscho rants that I have made here at these boards, that I could have given a better response to Truthsetsyoufree. I come here because I have a somewhat passive interest in Mlm companies, and I am most definitely what most would consider green. I'm trying to learn what is out there, what the true definition of an mlm company is. I want to learn what is bogus from what is legitimate, and as tough as crowds can sometimes be; I have learned more here at Repspace than I have ANYWHERE else. I can understand that on the surface we can sometimes be a bit tough, but this is definitely a place of truth at least with most of the regulars. If there is a flaw in a company, its product, its comp plan, or its executive team; it will be discussed here. At the same time, if there are things that are different, or revolutionary, or overall positive, it will also be known.

There is no more room for accentuating the positive and downplaying the negative, that is all most people (especially company reps) do, and it is often the sole reason truth is the last thing you manage to find. While I myself am a poor example of being a gentleman when it comes to some of these topics, alot of these guys like Jango, Watchdog and a few others have a great deal of insight, and they struggle everyday trying to protect what is good about the industry, and what is sometimes misunderstood by the average person. They do this even after companies let them down, even when they don't represent any competing companies at all. So your little hissy fit is completely unfounded and makes you look like a sore rep trying to alleviate the wound of a company that really did screw the people. You can't possibly preach to us about focusing on the positive here. You know what is positive? That as far as we know, no one has died as a result of this company's intentional negligence. THAT is positive.

lmao, that was particularly amusing....

Always an over reaction from people currently involved in whatever mlm we're discussing. I can partially understand if I've been duped into a plan that just wasn't panning out, but not to such a degree as what truthsetsyoufree came at us with. At that point that is basic denial, and I am noticing a trend with people lately when it comes to negative/positive. I'm all about people not being jerks, not consistantly complaining, whining, and always focusing on something negative, but lately something has started to change in our culture. People are beginning to deliberately put blinders on and wilfully focus on nothing but what brings them comfort. I can understand if you don't need to watch the news at night, or if you're down and trying to focus on positive things, but some of you seriously need some help. Ignoring bad things does anything but make them go away, go ahead and try it with cancer. What is wrong with you when you get to the point that you can see a bad mlm, or a scam and still choose to ride it out (even willing to suck in others to hurry up and stuff beneath you). People like this are either totally ignorant, or deliberately deceptive. I don't particularly enjoy the company of either.

Much love to you all. I have followed this from the beginning and I just wanted to point out what is most important. It is unfortunate that sometimes people are less than honest, but as far as I can see on the Internet, no one was seriously harmed by these pills, and for that I am rejoicing. I agree with you Wallace that this is the kind of deceit that should not be forgiven in regard to the company, but it would be the best thing for all involved to find a lesson within it to learn, and move on with their lives. One thing that I find quite interesting is that on the web site, and on the net, there is not much chatter about such things, it is almost as if it did not happen.

Why is this?
