The business keeps sailing along because the products work!

Marcia and I had been looking for a business that had lots of potential to build lifetime income and enable us to work together from home. We also wanted meaningful work that would help others. Friends introduced us to the Reliv nutritional products and our family got great results. We looked into the Reliv business opportunity and it's changed our life and many good ways. The business grows because the products work!

My health story.

We loved the products and the company so we have been independent distributors for over a year. The business is growing because we are helping so many people. The residual income will provide substantially for us for the rest of our life and is willable to our children.

You know how we've been blessed to have raised our children of the farm in Ligonier but it required us to invest a lot of money and work very hard. Ray often had to be be away on business. There were always risks involved and sometimes it worked out and sometimes it didn't.

Considering the economy and inflation we know people are concerned about the high cost of living everyone is facing in the future. We have a recorded phone message that has stories of other Reliv distributors from all walks of life who are loving the business like we are. When you have a few minutes check it out 800-404-2594.

So our new "empty nest stage is pretty exciting. We wanted an easy to manage business that didn't require having lots of money tied up in bricks, mortar, inventory and employees. Reliv was the perfect, low risk opportunity to get paid well for helping others with their health, wellness and finances.The quality of the products and corporate support are unbeatable.

We love to share our health and business stories since so many people are looking for answers.

Reliv International Helps 'Nourish Our World'

Reliv applauds the representatives for their support for the mission and efforts of the company's nonprofit organization - the Reliv Kalogris Foundation

Last update: 2:42 p.m. EST Dec. 4, 2008
CHESTERFIELD, Mo., Dec 04, 2008 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- (Grassroots Newswire) -- Most individuals that become an independent distributor with Reliv International do so to earn an income and offer nutritional supplements to their local community. But through their efforts came a bonus: providing critically needed supplements to malnourished children around the world through the company's nonprofit organization, the Reliv Kalogris Foundation.
With a mission to "nourish our world," the Reliv Kalogris Foundation provides free nutritional supplements to support organizations that combat malnutrition throughout the world. It provides Reliv supplements to more than 42,000 people, mostly children, in 270 programs in more than 10 countries, according to R. Scott Montgomery, chairman of the Reliv Foundation.
In 2007, Reliv distributors donated a record $1 million to the Reliv Foundation.
Over the past two years, Reliv distributors have raised $260,000 for the Foundation through its annual Walk for the Mission. The result: a new, three-story feeding center in Cavite City, Philippines, that serves 500 children who live on the city's garbage dumps. The new center replaced a cinderblock structure that had as its roof a tattered blue tarp. The funds also were used to build a feeding center and school in Haiti.
The Foundation was initially designed to provide its nutritional supplements free to individuals nominated by Reliv distributors, but today it has grown to help thousands more individuals stricken by poverty and malnutrition throughout the world.
The Reliv Kalogris Foundation - formed in 1995 - was named in honor of Dr. Ted Kalogris, who created the forerunner of Reliv's first product, Reliv Classic. To date, the Foundation has shipped more than $15.5 million in nutritional supplements to those in need around the world, Montgomery said. Those who operate the feeding centers in places like Haiti, Cambodia and the Philippines attest first-hand to the powerful benefits of the Reliv supplements.
"The Foundation is funded by distributors, the company and its employees, and 100 percent of distributor and employee donations go to support recipients," Montgomery said.

GlucAffect New Reliv Supplement Clinically Shown to Reduce Blood Glucose Levels and Promote Weight Loss

An article published by AARP online stated that visceral fat—belly fat, in plain English—interferes with liver function. In particular, it hampers the processing of cholesterol and insulin—and may also compromise the function of other tissues and systems. In December a study conducted at the VU University Medical Center in Amsterdam found links between belly fat and capillary inflammation (a contributor to heart disease) and between belly fat and insulin resistance (a precursor to diabetes).

Reliv has an amazing new product which can help with this dangerous condition!

Reliv International Releases Breakthrough Nutritional Product; GlucAffect™ Addresses Leading Factors of Metabolic Syndrome

Reliv International, Inc. (NASDAQ:RELV), a developer, manufacturer and marketer of science-based nutritional supplements today introduced GlucAffect™, a powder-based supplement clinically shown, along with proper diet and exercise, to reduce blood glucose levels and help control weight.

In an eight-week clinical study of 50 overweight individuals with moderately elevated blood glucose levels, subjects taking GlucAffect lowered their fasting blood glucose by an average of 30 percent. Those individuals also lost an average of 16 pounds. Both results are statistically significant when compared with results for the control group.

One of GlucAffect’s main active ingredients, Pycnogenol®, is an antioxidant clinically shown to help lower high blood glucose levels and provide other health benefits.

Elevated blood glucose levels and being overweight are key factors in metabolic syndrome, which dramatically increases the likelihood of developing diseases such as diabetes, heart disease and stroke. According to the American Heart Association, an estimated 47 million U.S. residents have the metabolic syndrome or nearly 1 in 4 American adults.

“Metabolic syndrome is a serious, emerging health concern among the medical community, and physicians are more frequently looking to nutritional science as a complement to traditional care and prescriptive remedies. We see the study results of GlucAffect as a significant development,” said Dr. Carl Hastings, vice chairman and chief scientific officer, Reliv.

GlucAffect comes in powder form and is blended with water, juice, coffee or milk to make a drink. GlucAffect retails at $60 per can and provides 42 servings. The product is available through Reliv’s U.S. distributor network, part of an international contingent of approximately 69,000 distributors in 13 countries.

No other product available on the market includes the combination of innovative ingredients found in GlucAffect. Dr. Hastings added, “Ingredients were carefully selected based upon research, extensive testing, processes and controls instituted by Reliv’s team of nutritional scientists.”

Reliv Vice Chairman, Dr. Carl Hastings named "Health Care Hero"

Congratulations to Dr. Carl for being acknowledged as a ‘Health Care Hero’

The St. Louis Business Journal has named Relìv Vice Chairman and Chief Scientific Officer Dr. Carl Hastings as a finalist for its 2008 Health Care Hero Award for Innovation. Dr. Carl will join other noted professionals at a special awards luncheon on October 2nd and be profiled in the October 3rd issue of the Journal. Please join us in congratulating Dr. Carl on this well-deserved honor!

Marcia Speicher shares her Reliv story

I have always been interested in nutrition and made sure my family ate well balanced meals with a focus on fresh vegetables and fruits, plus we took a nutritional "power shake" every day to make sure we didn't miss out on the benefits of the best nutrition our money could buy. Still, entering my late 40's I was hit with severe menopause symptoms along with exhaustion, memory loss, pre-hypertension, metabolic changes and achy joints. Add to that the emotional and financial stress of raising 3 teenagers and putting them through college. I kept up a good front but I was spiraling downwards.

Someone cared enough about me to teach me about Reliv nutrition by introducing me to other people who were getting good results with the same things I was dealing with. I thought "If this can do that for them, surely it can help me.", so I got started taking just two shakes a day. Hanging on to other people's stories I hoped it could at least give me some energy. Within several days Ray noticed that I was waking in the morning with energy and a clarity of mind he'd not seen in 25 years of marriage. My menopause symptoms of brain fatigue, moodiness, afternoon exhaustion, and hot flashes lessened dramatically within about 3 months. After six months on the products I found that the intense daily struggle with food cravings was becoming nonexistent. That was HUGE for me, as I had been dealing with an eating disorder for 38 years and didn't think anything could help, let alone a nutritional product.

Today I am still in menopause, but I find Reliv helps me to more gracefully deal with the stages my body must go through. The eating disorder is a thing of the past, and I have healthy normal eating habits for the first time since the age of 14. Not only that, but I thoroughly enjoy sharing hope with others through our products and business. I love being a part of a company that adheres to a very high code of ethics, is debt free, and is helping people with health and financial needs in 14 countries around the world. I love working from home connecting people with hope and encouragement that is shared from one living room to another via phone and Internet. It is extremely rewarding rejoice with others as they see positive changes in their health and finances. Most importantly for me, I love being a part of our non-profit organization, The Kalogris Foundation, where we are nourishing over 42,000 children and adults around the world who would otherwise have no hope of a healthy body and no dreams for a future.

Jolly Gomez of Reliv Asia has some profound thoughts about the "financial volatility"
of the stock market and the recent collapse of Lehman Brothers. He said in a posting on the Reliv community blog "We may be a small company($150,000,000 annual sales) but we are solid. We have been around for 20 years. We have no debt. We do not play with our excess money. We have proven and reliable products. We pay our commissions on time, every month. We allow people to quit if they want to with a part of their income intact. We allow people to work if they want to – and give them even more money. This is how it affects us today." Financial markets go up and down but the growing health and wellness industry is unstoppable.read the posting.
