Network Marketing

Some number of years ago some strangers met me in a coffee shop and tried to talk me into joining a Network Marketing pyramid for Amway. I enjoyed the latte they bought me and politely said, "No! No way! Never me!"

At the time I considered Multi-Level Marketing to be nothing more than a pyramid scheme. Now, particularly with the right product(s), I consider it an alternative and perhaps even better way to get the word out. Certainly the Network Marketing commissions are no more expensive than advertising costs, which are also part of the cost of the product, not to mention the retail profit margin.

Now I've found a suite of products that I believe in, primarily because some very respectable people have talked more about the science behind them and their own personal benefit from their use than that Network Marketing means getting rich. Unfortunately, they are available only at something that approaches a reasonable price only if you are in the network. Not that making some money doesn't appeal to me. It does, particularly now with my layoff and the stock market collapse delaying, if not bursting my business or early retirement dreams.

Ever since Marilyn passed away, I've kept my eyes open for anything that improves the immune system. For the last year and a half I have been a vegan. Unfortunately, being a vegan requires a lot of study and planning to get the right quantity and combinations to maximize its benefits. Supplements help, indeed some are required, vitamin B-12, but the supplements also have a best pattern of being taken and it isn't always made explicit. Much of what I know came from the Gerson Therapy that Marilyn was on. For everything but the cancer, and it may have been working slowly on the cancer until she stopped, it was obviously working miracles for the rest of her. They had her taking supplements before, during and after meals (and a lot of juices in between).

Even now there isn't a magic pill but there is a set of products that helps revitalize the immune system without all the juices and coffee enemas. These products are all from Orenda International.

I will be taking O-Tropin, Immune, and possibly the All in One Male. I'm recommending my sisters take at least the Immune and All in One Female. The Oki product helps muscles recover faster, improving the benefits of exercise.

There are other people I know who could benefit from these, and other, of the Orenda products. Hey, that is Network Marketing.
