I have a friend who was in Optavia and now has jumped over to this. I feel sorry for her, because I can see that it’s a flaming pile of crap, but she won’t listen. You’re right, the victims defend the scam to the grave. You’re doing good work. Keep fighting!

I have a biochem degree and the constant mentioning of peptides is driving me crazy. They don't even mention what the structure of the peptides is or its molecular name. There are hundreds of thousands of combinations of protein peptides, just taking random ones isn't gonna do much, it will just be broken down in the gut. Also the body is capable of synthesising peptides it needs if we eat good meals, there is no need for this.

I'll be uploading the document to Google drive later today. The original link I posted was the link to my computer. Lol. Yay for a dumbest move! I'll also be posting the document page by page on my IG stories and make a highlight for them on my profile. Thanks to everyone who let me know the link wasn't working!

6:13 I have a PhD in physics. As a PhD candidate I would have never written PhD(c) on anything!! I've never seen that before and I've been in academia in the USA and in Europe.

« My cat walking across the keyboard peptide » took me out 😂

Love Such an important video, Julie! Well done!

[arlenekatz]

fyi someone can technically be a PhD candidate for decades. Forever. It sometimes means the person completed course work and never wrote their dissertation. It doesn’t even mean they did all their courses

[connieburton]

I joined Make Wellness but was really suspicious about the products and then i saw the paper that was supposedly written by a Phd person. I found it to be like a paper you would turn into your professor. I have no further interest at all in this company. These products have not even been tested or tried. Why would anyone want to take something you know nothing about. I could continue and write more but I will stop. I'm not a big MLM person but I immediately knew something wasn't right.

as a PhD candidate... this is appalling!!!! I have done everything but defend my dissertation at this point (finished coursework, passed comprehensive exam, etc.), which is when we move from student to candidate so I EARNED that title... and I STILL would never misrepresent myself in such a manner!!!! like, I literally work at a postsecondary institution where we sign our names with our degrees... and I sign my name with an MA at the end, PhD coursework be damned, because if I don't finish before I time out then I am not, in fact, going to be a

I'm so furious about this jfc

[liftpanic]

You express so much compassion for the people who are throwing $500 into this flaming pile of shit. I have trouble seeing them as anything but idiots. Your work is so valuable and you are a hero.

Those two paragraphs are just [citation needed] [citation needed] [citation needed] 😭

I can't believe someone put PhD (c) as a credential to promote a product. Who besides you is going to look up what that stands for or what it means to be a candidate (which could mean different things depending on the university.) Besides, the PhD might be in French literature for all we know.
-Signed, an actual PhD also not qualified to evaluate the functions of peptides except I recall enough from my biology GRE that this is vague word salad

[joyfuljaj]

A lady in my Facebook friends circle posted a picture after her keratin hair treatment to use that to publicise her peptides. "If keratin is a peptide and is doing such wonders for her hair imagine what taking them will do.!" I didn't want to become a target for her home botanist so I didn't respond to her that keratin is a polypeptide - a fully fledged protein- and putting keratin on your hair is not the same thing as taking whatever these peptides are. I do want to ask her what happened to her using plexus for all of her health needs.

How stunning are you … stunning … not stunned 😂😂 … YOU have no idea how much your commentary has helped me!! Xoxo thank you from the bottom of my sore soul to the tippy top of my now happy heart xoxo

6:01 That is correct. When I was still in school for my undergrad...I didn't write on any of my resumes "BS (c)" 😂. Because, it is irrelevant! It doesn't matter!

13:13 OK. For one thing, I was taught in college that when you are writing your paper to talk about your study and its findings...you do NOT use a lot of language and jargon. You write "as if you are telling the average person who has no background knowledge of the subject" -Dr. Williams, PhD Psychology.
So, already this paper is giving "I found a bunch of crap online that sounded good, so here...take this and don't ask questions because I can't explain it."

The cat walking across my keyboard made me 😂😂😂😂

The way your voice got gradually more frantic and ad-read esque the more you read through section 9 was PSYCHOTIC 😭😭😭 i am crying at the gym

[KelD-tbji]

I am reminded of trying to write papers in high school or college, where you were required to have at least 5 pages double-spaced Times New Roman type etc…Students end up adding fluff words to get it to meet the length requirement.

Getting back to me over the past 3 years since I left Arbonne means crafting, knitting, creating, gardening, uninterrupted family time and still working my ass off; but I love ALL that I do - WHILST getting paid for it and not continually digging my debt hole deeper trying to level up xoxo
