TINA has revealed a disturbing report, framing Youngevity as a continuation of BlackOxygen Organics.
BlackOxygen Organics, or BOO because it was recognized, was arguably final 12 months’s largest MLM crash and burn.
BOO marketed Canadian lavatory filth, harvested a stone’s throw away from a hazardous industrial waste disposal website. You possibly can most likely guess how that turned out.
In October 2021 Well being Canada issued a recall on BlackOxygen Organics merchandise as a result of well being dangers.
Cease taking these merchandise. Don’t administer the merchandise to kids or adolescents.
BlackOxygen Organics shut down in the direction of the tip of November. Across the identical time a class-action was filed in opposition to BOO, alleging the corporate bought dietary supplements that “are harmful for human use and consumption”.
At time of publication the BOO class-action stays pending.
A month later in December, the FDA confirmed BOO’s merchandise contained “elevated ranges of lead and arsenic”.
Sadly, US regulators up to now have taken no additional motion was taken in opposition to BOO or proprietor and CEO Marc Saint Onge.
That brings us to Youngevity, who TINA reviews Saint Onge instantly turned to after closing down BOO.
Quoting an e-mail despatched out by Youngevity to BOO distributors, TINA wrote in a September twelfth report;
After the chief crew of Black Oxygen Organics closed their doorways, they approached Youngevity by way of mutual contacts and puzzled if there is likely to be a possibility for us to help with their displaced Model Companions and Clients.
They expressed to Youngevity that they nonetheless have an , tight-knit neighborhood, and so they’d like to settle someplace the place they will proceed to take part in a compensation program. Youngevity has that.
Presumably Youngevity acquired the BOO distributor database from Saint Onge for an undisclosed sum.
Saint Onge might need additionally bought Youngevity distribution rights for BOO’s banned merchandise.
Accompanying Youngevity’s unsolicited e-mail was a flyer for “Midnight Minerals”, Youngevity’s new fulvic acid product.
TINA reached out to Youngevity and requested if Midnight Minerals was BOO’s banned dietary supplements repackaged. Youngevity didn’t reply.
I had a glance into this myself. Youngevity don’t present nation of origin data for his or her Midnight Minerals masks.
The closest I used to be capable of affirm Midnight Minerals is sourced from Marc Saint Onge’s BOO industrial waste polluted lavatory, was a Youngevity company webinar from June.
CEO Steve Wallach featured on the webinar and, pitching Midnight Minerals, acknowledged:
[11:46] Fulvic acid and humic acid are plant acids as properly. And so they’re often related to concentrated plant matter, like our Utah plant minerals.
Just like the fulvic minerals from Canada that this product is derived from. That comes from a peat lavatory in Canada.
All issues thought-about, that’s just about affirmation that Youngevity is importing BlackOxygen Organics banned contaminated lavatory filth underneath a special identify.
The twist is, whereas Youngevity had beforehand launched Midnight Minerals as a pores and skin masks, explicitly stating it was “not meant for human ingestion”, Wallach was speaking a couple of new ingestible providing.
[12:05] This model new product isn’t obtainable but nevertheless it’s about to be. So it’s one thing we’ve been engaged on for some time now, and so it’s referred to as Midnight Minerals Fulvic Minutes.
And it is a consumable product that’s in capsule kind. So there’s mixing, there’s no taste … and so this product will likely be obtainable in per week so.
As of mid September, Youngevity’s web site lists Midnight Minerals Fulvic Minutes as being in “pre-order until June 30, 2022”.
There are not any critiques left for the product, so I can solely assume that whilst you can add Fulvic Minutes to your cart, Youngevity hasn’t shipped it out but.
Whether or not that is associated to the FDA ban or not is unclear. Definitely it’s odd that Fulvic Minutes aren’t obtainable two and a half months after Wallach stated they’d be.
For client well being although, Youngevity not promoting “poison in a capsule” is a win.
However what concerning the Midnight Minerals masks product?
That brings us again to TINA, who present proof former BOO distributors have continued to chow down Midnight Minerals, consumption warnings be damned;
Hell, you don’t even want to go away Youngevity’s web site to search out an something however delicate nod to former BOO lavatory munchers;
That’s from the evaluation part of Youngevity’s web site retailer entry for the Midnight Minerals pores and skin masks, dated April 2022.
To drive house how harmful issues obtained with BOO earlier than authorities stepped in, we had distributors on social media ingesting the poison, shitting out their intestinal lining and posting pictures of dissected feces on social media.
And if that wasn’t horrifying sufficient, a number of the pictures had been alleged stool samples of their kids:
Now we’ve got Youngevity, peddling the identical contaminated lavatory filth the FDA banned importation of, to the identical batshit loopy buyer base – as a result of earnings.
On the very least there’s an FTC case to reply to right here, with respect to Youngevity’s conspiracy to focus on former BOO distributors, placing customers in danger and failing to reveal circumvention of an FDA ban on the importation of contaminated lavatory filth.
A Midnight Minerals Security and Use Report, supplied on Youngevity’s web site, notes the presence of arsenic, cadmium, mercury, lead.
The report pertains to “unintentional ingestion” of Midnight Minerals filth. BOO distributors had been actually shovelling this shit down.
