Warned about during February 2007
Highly recommended is BELIEVE, the Movie.
This movie is a hillarious comedy twist on MLM, Network Marketing, and all the aspects of the almost blind product-related-religious-belief that is required to deal with network marketing. Many of which we have warned you about on this website are portrayed in a funny and sarcastic way. check out the website, see the movie!
Not to long ago we pointed out that TNI was using the Splenda artificial sweetener, known for its poisonous components, in some of their products. A reader pointed out a place where Noni distributors in the TNI network marketing arena hang out and what they had to say about Splenda. One Noni distributor said the following;
“I KNEW THERE HAD TO BE SOMETHING WRONG WITH THIS STUFF. I used Splenda for about 2 weeks, and I was having MIGRAINES like I never have before. I was also having a lot of back pain, and passed a kidney stone! I have started using HONEY, and if that is not available, I use PURE XYLITOL, since it is all natural. I AM NOT A LAB RAT! DON’T MAKE YOURSELF A VICTIM OF CORPORATE AMERICA by buying into their hype. All they want is your MONEY and don’t give two licks about your health or well-being. BE HEALTHY AND LIVE LONG! And Drink NONI every day! This stuff is MIRACULOUS!”
Aparantly the other distriburors and strong believers in the Tahitian Noni Juice have no good words to say about Splenda. But, as always, these people will defend TNI and the Noni Juice as if it’s their firstborn being attacked by hungry wolves. I wonder how they would feel if they actually realised their beloved company is using Splenda, especially in the case of the above individual who does not wish “to be a victim of corporate america”. Evidently he already is, but doesn’t realize it yet.
On Saturday the 25th of Feb, 2007, Dr. Williams (the one who has taken the spot of Neil Solomon after he fell out of grace with TNI) will be in NY to “help” medical professionals and IPC’s in telling them how his regiment of Noni Juice and spasm release (the spasm one gets after discovering the pyramid structure network marketing sales strategies they need to get involved with in order to pay for their noni?) is claimed able to help several specific conditions. We wonder if Dr. Williams will be making any off-limits medical claims in relation to Noni Juice and we’ll have a full report after the event on that. According to the literature put out to promote this event, Dr. Williams presents this as a way for the body to “heal itself”.
It is clear that the goal of all this is to try and sell as much Noni Juice as possible to workers and people in NYC who have been affected by the “WTC Cough” and other respiratory problems. Have these people no shame? Aparantly not.
This, of course, is the same Dr. Richard Williams that recently put out one of his special giberish reports called “What would you do if you or someone you know are worried abotu the Asian bird flu (H5N1)”, in which, you guessed it, Dr. Williams comes up with a recommendation on servings of Tahitian Noni Juice as “nutricional supplementation”.
Well, folks, if you’re scared of aliens from Mars invading our planet, drink noni juice. If you or someone you know are worried about pink elephants raining down from the skies, drink noni juice. That seems to be the “Williams Mantra”.
HIRO, another so called “business opportunity of the centry”, just like all the previous ones. Are there going to be actual medical cures associated with this? If it’s up to those with a financial interest in the beverage, you can say it’s a safe bet there will be. According to Kelly Olsen;
“ILC will mark the focused launch of HIRO, a new Tahitian Noni based beverage that will set the place on fire. We are putting our entire marketing muscle behind this launch. You will begin to receive regular HIRO updates, teasers and information leading up to ILC, but let me assure you, you will be proud of this product. It has all the best characteristics of a winner: It is positioned in the fastest growing segment of the beverage market, it is the most unique and differentiated product in this segment, it is the ultimate consumable product that everyone, every age, every condition can drink and benefit from. This product is going to generate volume!”
The target for HIRO (marketed under the name taHiro outside of the US) is the “energy drink” Red Bull and will be “launched” at March 13th in Las Vegas. But what Kelly Olsen has failed to mention is that HIRO, in Tahitian mythical lore… IS A THIEF. Well, in that case the name is probably well chosen. In a recent conference call, distributors in the TNI pyramid have been called upon to recruit, recruit, recruit, and recruit some more in order to help launch HIRO.
HIRO will come in three styles, Energy, Mobility and Vitality. I wonder why there isn’t a fourth version called Scam. No doubt the marketing will probably be along the lines of “action hero” and “action hiro” but so far distributors are talking about a can of the stuff going for between $2 and $4 each and will come in trays of 24 cans per tray.

“The reason for TNI’s success is hucksterism. TNI uses multi-level marketing (MLM) and relies on networking and word-of-mouth advertising to sell its products, which in Utah means insinuating itself shamelessly into the LDS Church’s ladies’ auxiliary organization. (MLM schemes attract distributors by extracting an initial payment and promising exponential rewards from the work of others recruited lower in the pyramid; unfortunately, the mathematics of MLM schemes ensures that most investors in the bottom layers will lose their investment.) Essentially all of TNI’s evidence in support of Noni Juice is anecdotal of the my-sister-in-law’s-brother-recommends-it variety. The little “research” that has been done on Noni Juice is quasi-scientific at best and unworthy of publication in reputable scientific journals (certainly TNI, at this point, could afford to fund a scientifically tenable study validating the efficacy of its claims)”.
“TNI’s “medical experts,” too, tend to be alternative health practitioners with questionable educational backgrounds (i.e., “naturopathy doctorates,” chiropractic degrees, etc.; folks, these are not legitimate credentials!) or medical doctors with controversial pasts. For example, until recently, TNI’s primary medical spokeperson was Neil Solomon, a once well-respected internist, trained at Johns Hopkins, who took up the Noni Juice cause only after relinquishing his medical license in the wake of a $160 million sexual harassment lawsuit (Solomon admitted to having unethical sexual relationships with 8 female patients).”
