A month or so in the past Well being Therapies popped up on my radar.
On the time I didn’t have sufficient info to go on, so I filed it below “test again in just a few weeks”.
At present iGalen’s web site area options Well being Therapies’ emblem. For all intents and functions Well being Therapies has launched, nevertheless the transition from iGalen is nowhere close to full.
We’ll get extra into that within the conclusion of this overview.
With respect to Well being Therapies as an organization, no company info is offered on its web site.
There’s an “our crew” hyperlink offered, nevertheless on the time of publication it seems to be damaged.
Three Well being Therapies company addresses are offered, one in Northern Eire, one in Malaysia and one within the US.
All three addresses are shared with a bunch of different corporations. Whether or not Well being Therapies has an precise bodily presence at any of the places is unclear.
A Group Co-Ordinator electronic mail deal with offered results in one other Well being Therapies web site area (“healththerapies4u.com”).
It’s on this web site an April eleventh weblog publish gives some perception.
Well being Therapies, a distribution associate of Holista CollTech (HCT), has positioned a $3.8 million order for Holista’s NatShield sanitiser.
In March, Holista appointed Well being Therapies as its unique U.S. distributor for a three-year interval. Well being Therapies should spend no less than $3 million per 12 months.
Holista Colltech we all know from our Could 2019 iGalen overview.
Following a authorized dispute with a product producer, iGalen went on to collapse in November 2019.
Following the collapse, iGalen’s web site was repurposed to push Bitreen, a neem based mostly complement.
I consider the transition to Well being Therapies is comparatively current.
In 2019 Holista CollTech was run by executives Chang Heng Fai and Rajen Manicka.
The beforehand linked Well being Therapies 4 U weblog publish incorporates a photograph of Manicka. Whether or not Chang Heng Fai remains to be onboard is unclear.
Additionally unclear is who precisely is behind and working Well being Therapies.
As at all times, if an MLM firm will not be brazenly upfront about who’s working or owns it, assume lengthy and laborious about becoming a member of and/or handing over any cash.
Well being Therapies’ Merchandise
Well being Therapies continues iGalen’s advertising of Uncarb and Gennisi.
As offered on Well being Therapies’web site, Uncarb and Gennisi are iGalen branded.
From our 2019 iGalen overview;
Uncarb is marketed as “the world’s first carbohydrate optimizer”.
Gennisi is marketed as an anti-aging and skin-repairing algae-based complement.
Uncarb is bought in a bottle of 80 capsules. Gennisi is bought in a field of 28 sachets.
Each Uncarb and Gennisi retail for $79.95
Trying to purchase Uncarb and Gennisi redirects to the previous iGalen storefront, whereby product pricing stays the identical.
Well being Therapies has added two merchandise since our 2019 overview; Virastan and ProV.
For some purpose each merchandise have clean labels.
Virastan is a sanitizer powered by Path-Away, which is a plant-based formulation confirmed in world famend laboratories.
Together with laboratories working with World Well being Group, to kill over 170 lethal pathogens together with beforehand examined types of the corona virus previous to the present epidemic.
Well being Therapies elderberry & Zinc capsules for adults combines the power of not one however 5 high-quality, immune-supporting components.
Virastan retails for $79.95 a bottle. ProV retails for $34.99.
Well being Therapies’ Compensation Plan
Well being Therapies’ compensation plan is branded iGalen. Comparability to our 2019 overview reveals compensation particulars are unchanged.
The one distinction I can see is that rank qualification for Ruby and above is now offered.
As such I’ve reproduced compensation particulars as offered in our 2019 iGalen overview beneath. The one change I’ve made is the addition of the Ruby and better rank qualification standards.
Well being Therapies associates join autoship and buy fee rank each 4 weeks.
Retail is feasible however unlikely. Evaluation of Well being Therapies’ compensation plan suggests the vast majority of commissions paid out are tied to ongoing purchases by immediately and not directly recruited associates.
Fee Qualification and Affiliate Ranks
Well being Therapies associates should buy a number of merchandise each 8 weeks to qualify for commissions.
Precisely qualification prices are decided by what rank a Well being Therapies affiliate chooses to purchase each 8 weeks:

Retail Commissions
Well being Therapies associates are paid to market and promote merchandise to retail prospects.
Retail commissions are paid out because the distinction between the wholesale and retail price of merchandise ordered (cited as as much as 35%).
Given Distributor ranked associates appear to pay the identical as Well being Therapies retail prospects, I’m unsure how retail commissions are paid for at this rank.
Recruitment Commissions
Well being Therapies associates are paid to recruit new associates who buy rank.
- recruit a Distributor and obtain a 5% fee
- recruit a Bronze affiliate and obtain a 7.5% fee

Residual Commissions
Well being Therapies pays residual commissions by way of a binary compensation construction.
A binary compensation construction locations an affiliate on the high of a binary crew, break up into two sides (left and proper):
The primary degree of the binary crew homes two positions. The second degree of the binary crew is generated by splitting these first two positions into one other two positions every (4 positions).
Subsequent ranges of the binary crew are generated as required, with every new degree housing twice as many positions because the earlier degree.
Positions within the binary crew are stuffed by way of direct and oblique recruitment of associates. Word there isn’t any restrict to how deep a binary crew can develop.
On the finish of every week Well being Therapies tallies up gross sales quantity on each side of the binary crew.
Gross sales quantity is a mixture of affiliate purchases and any gross sales to retail prospects by means of Well being Therapies (resale quantity is counted as affiliate buy quantity).
When 500 BV on one aspect of the binary crew is matched with 1000 BV on the opposite aspect, a “cycle” is recorded.
A cycle fee is paid out as a share of the five hundred BV generated on the weaker binary crew aspect.
How a lot of a cycle fee share is paid out is decided by which rank a Well being Therapies affiliate has bought.

Conclusion
Seeing as Well being Therapies is actually iGalen rebooted with two new merchandise, a lot of what I concluded in 2019 applies right here.
Particularly that Well being Therapies is nonetheless a regulatory minefield.
- I’m nonetheless not satisfied Uncarb isn’t simply overpriced onion powder;
- Gennisi nonetheless seems overpriced compared to different available algae merchandise (harvested from the identical lake);
- obligatory affiliate purchases = pay to play, a corridor mark of a pyramid scheme
And if that wasn’t dangerous sufficient, Well being Therapies is on Fb trumpeting COVID-19 advertising:
From what I can see Well being Therapies has taken their hand sanitizer defending in opposition to COVID-19 (the identical as some other excessive share sanitizer), as license to make use of COVID-19 advertising for all their merchandise.
CDC pointers suggest the usage of an alcohol-based hand rub with 60-95% alcohol. There is no such thing as a
advisable different handy rub merchandise with better than 60% ethanol or 70% isopropanol as energetic components.
Virastan is alcohol free.
So far as I can inform, Virastan is a rebranding of Holista CollTech’s NatShield sanitizer.
As per an April twenty first press launch issued by Holista CollTech;
Path-Away, a plant-based pure energetic ingredient used within the alcohol-free NatShield hand sanitiser developed by Malaysia-based and Australia-listed Holista CollTech, has been examined by a number one U.Ok. bio-safety laboratory to be greater than 99.99% efficient in opposition to a surrogate of the COVID-19 novel coronavirus, Holista stated right now.
NatShield, and by proxy Virastan, is being marketed as
a serious step in … efforts to assist forestall the unfold of the pandemic that to date has contaminated greater than 2.4 million individuals and killed over 625,000 individuals worldwide.
Proper. Now initially I’m not disputing whether or not Virastan is an efficient different to CDC advisable alcohol-based sanitizer.
That stated, it’s essential to notice the “surrogate” talked about above is feline coronavirus, a “frequent viral an infection in cats.”
To be clear: NatShield/Virastan has not been examined on precise COVID-19 in a lab setting.
From a regulatory perspective Well being Therapies utilizing COVID-19 might be a violation of the FTC Act.
And that is essential, as a result of boy oh boy is Well being Therapies’ advertising thick with emotional COVID-19 exploitation.
Following the success of two earlier shipments from Malaysia, roughly 415,000 bottles can be delivered throughout the USA all through the approaching months.
Roughly 15,000 bottles can be shipped in April, whereas the remaining 400,000 can be shipped all through Could and June.
This elevated order comes from sturdy demand from Well being Therapies and U.S. State Administration, significantly in New York, the place greater than 6000 individuals have misplaced their lives.
Given iGalen flopped after it misplaced entry to Emulin, and that Well being Therapies’ advertising closely options COVID-19, I can’t assist however really feel the reboot is time-sensitive money seize.
Between the shortage of company disclosure, pyramid scheme compensation plan and COVID-19 shenanigans, I’d be giving Well being Therapies a large berth.
