Herbalife products cost over twice as much as alternative products
No matter how much they cost, they cost too much. This should be obvious if you consider critically the scheme that they are sold with. For each bottle, box, whatever it’s sold, each Herbalife member in the “pyramid”, i.e., whoever contributed to that sale, no matter how indirectly and how far away in the past, makes at least some money.
Few people who join Herbalife will ever make any money from the company.
Those who do, make money primarily from recruiting new Herbalife distributors, convincing them to buy product, and getting them to recruit even more distributors. Simply put, because Herbalife’s incentive structure rewards recruiting as opposed to retail product sales, Herbalife is a pyramid scheme. It lures in new distributors by promising riches and preying on entrepreneurial dreams but the truth is that 89% of Herbalife distributors will never earn a penny from the company.

Some of the shakes are nice, but many of the products contain harmful and dangerous ingredients
Herbalife products are VERY expensive
Herbalife products are ONLY available through local distributors, making availability tricky
