There are thousands of Ponzi schemes out there!! A Ponzi scheme is a fraudulent investment operation that pays returns to its investors from their own money or the money paid by subsequent investors, rather than from profit earned by the individual or organization running the operation. Is Monavie another PONZI Scheme ?
Allegation No. 1: Mona vie is just like any other juice and there are no special benefits from drinking it!.
I have personally met people who take the Monavie Acai berry juice from many days. They couldnt find any special benefit of the Monavie Juice. They couldn't find any change in health issues or blood pressure. No change in chloesterol levels, no change in my joint issues, no change in pain levels, no change in energy levels or anything else.
Allegation No. 2 : Monavie juice is very expensive berry juice and basically empty calories and a sugar rush. All the positive comments which Monavie and the leaders propagates are based on anecdotal evidence and their claims are not supported by independent researchers and independent empirical data. It better to save your money and buy grape juice and you will get the same benefits that you would get from mona vie (lots of calories, natural sugars, carbohydrates, etc.).
Truth No. 1: An analysis conducted by contract laboratory Chromadex indicated that MonaVie contained low levels of the antioxidant vitamin, vitamin C, and phytochemicals such as anthocyanins and phenolics associated with antioxidant activity in vitro.
In 2008, Forbes magazine reporters Emily Lambert and Klaus Kneale noted:
“TEAM is one step ahead of all these juice selling schemes. It is a pyramid atop a pyramid. It is selling motivational aids to help MonaVie vendors move the juice. But wait. If you can't earn back the $258 you've spent on the motivational lectures by selling $39 juice bottles, you could earn it back in another way—getting people to buy $258 motivational lectures. If you're good, you flog the lectures to other people, who sell them to yet others. Everybody gets rich. Everybody, that is, except the last round of buyers. That's the theory, anyway. The reality is that a mere 1% of Team members make any money from involvement with the firm
