Request for Review of NU SKIN ageLOC

Olay Regenerist Daily Regenerating SerumI was wondering if you have reviewed the NU SKIN ageLOC skin program. It is quite expensive, but I am not sure it is worth the money and besides that it is an MLM system, which I hate.

=============================================

Hi Ellen,

I’m not a big fan of MLMs either, unless one wants:

• One-on-one consultations about skin care, make-up colors and application; or
• To become a consultant to obtain products at a significant discount for personal use.

In my opinion, the products tend to be overpriced for what you get – as a direct result of the multi-level structure with escalating commissions starting around 35% and escalating with overrides (where you receive additional compensation based on the sales of your downline – the people you have recruited).

NU SKIN ageLOC
The NU SKIN site has some videos on the science behind its ageLOC products. The information is very sketchy indeed.

Allusions are made to partnering with the founders of Lifegen Technologies, a genomics company that focuses on gene expression profiling as it relates to the aging process.

Most research by the founders of Lifegen has focused on the anti-aging benefits of extreme calorie restriction (CR) in mice and, more recently, monkeys.

They’ve done some work on Resveratrol along these lines, as have many other researchers.

The goal of CR research is to find chemicals which mimic the effects of CR to combat aging and extend healthspan without actually having people subsist on a near starvation diet.

According to the Lifegen website “This research will permit LifeGen to partner with companies to develop pharmaceutical and nutraceutical compounds to retard aging.” So that’s where NU SKIN comes into the picture.

[Conclusion
tomorrow …]
