Inability to place my order for the previous mentioned reason

For several years now I believe this is the only problem I have had placing an order with Advocare. Every shipment has a note from Advocare that if anything is not completely right to contact you. I simply was not able to place my order following given instructions.

I love Advocare's products,especially the vitamin supplements, the Rehydrate & Spark.My problem is with the web site.When I order multiple items,each time I have to go back to the beginning & order

There must be a better way to place the order instead of starting all over each time. It gets very frustrating & it is easy to makes mistakes by duplicating something ornate ordering what you intended.

Other than that the products like Rehydrate & Spark taste really good &;they really work. I will keep ordering these good products.

I am a person with immune issues

I found the MNC 3 Line which contained key components that worked better for me than most orthodox products . With no warning to advocare customers what so ever Advocare pulled all mns3 and its counter parts with a week replacement line which had no benefit for compromised immune system weight management or energy support .

It took out more than three or 4 of the key capsules in individual wrapped packets and made a weak cs video saying customers ask advocare to offer mns3 with less capsules and less price. Well read the mns3 reviews on Advocare the former users of Advocare mns 3 say nothing like that.

about 1 million 1 start reviews hating that Advocare destroyed a 100 percent product and offered a drug store quality replacement brand and charged more than the original mens 3 . I am still looking for a reading brand product replacement for mens 3sorry you will never know what mens 3 was really likesorry you will never know what mns3 was really like

Severe muscle cramps

I've used the product for years. When I began experiencing muscle cramps I assumed it may have been related to early stages of menopause.

I lost a tremendous amount of weight but I also walked alot. I stopped taking the product and the cramps ceased over time.

I started consuming the product again. (All the basics/common products) and the cramps came back.

Delay in getting spark

I ordered a canister of spark on Saturday, January 28th in hopes it would arrive in 2 days as that is what I paid for and was promised...I am desperate for some and nobody sells this in my hometown. When can I expect this delivery? Thanks as I will be going out of town and need this delivered to my home address!

AdvoCare - I love slim peach/mango

Is there any way possible you can make the slim products LESS sweet.

They are over the top to sweet. We have all been in diets in our lives.

Less is so much better. The mixed berry is like drinking kool aide.

Just use less Sucralose. Please

Talk to your doctor first

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I am flabbergasted by the unknown side effects of this medicine. My friend has breast cancer, was religiously drinking Spark.

The distributor out right lied to her face that she will "feel better" when in fact after she did at first due to the large amount of caffeine. But she became sick to her stomach, could barely function. Come to find out this product affects the liver. It could've killed her as suddenly it spread to her liver.

Please don't go on ANYTHING without a doctor's approval. Also, I agree with the woman who posted about her bi polar. I have been diagnosed with Severe Panic Disorder and PTSD. After taking Spark first day I had an extreme panic attack, blood pressure through the roof, heart rate way too high, doctor said caused from the ingredients in this.

Because I had medicine, I got ok. But no one should need to go to the ER from this as that was a $500 expense. Also, not as serious but should be known, Catalyst causes hair loss and will barely work unless you eat very little protein which in st recommended according to scientific researchers. Not to freak people out, but see a doctor before you start these products, someone who knows your body, and understands what you need.

There are no medical doctors to talk to behind Advocare products. As a company, they just don't have them. I'm trying not to take my anxiety meds as much, but if I continued these products, I could've suffered from addiction due to the fact they are only taken "as needed" Needing them way too much due to a ridiculous supplement would've been extremely dumb.

Please be careful. Follow doctor orders not what your distributor says.

They do not stand behind their product

I purchased two canisters of spark and when I began using one of the canisters, it became lumpy and took on a foul odor. They would not let me return or exchange the unopened canister or the original canister of which I only used 1/4 of it.

I was not longer a distributor. Bad customer service and they do not stand behind their product.

AdvoCare made me ill

First and foremost I am a very active person, I am a drywall finisher so I'm constantly on the go. I took AdvoCare about 4 years ago the slim program and it worked.

I just started the 24 day challenge and boy o boy..... I got through the cleanse, which was ok but you definitely can not drink alcohol with this. Learned the hard way....ugh so I just started the max. The first day was ok all the supplements I didn't hit my system yet.

By day three I was extremely sick. I was nauseous dizzy low grade fever felt hungry all the time almost like I had the flu. Let me reassure you I did not have the flu. I am going to stop taking the pills because I feel like they will put me in the hospital.

I'm not sure what happened within the four years of taking these supplements but I'm sure that's something has changed in them. I would not recommend this product!!!!

Unable to think clearly and stay focused

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I started taking this whena distributor was at a Breat Cancer 5k. She told me it was great and very healthy for me and would help give me energy in my treatment.

Later I find out how much caffeine is in it and thought well there is the energy. I stupidly took this without checking with my doctor. At first I felt great and had more energy. ( probably due to extra caffeine than I normally consume.

120 mg as opposed to 56 mg of caffeine. Pretty soon I felt just awful. I could not focus at work or off work for that matter. I felt confusion, and could not think clearly.

I definitely had trouble focusing and felt like I could not function.

In addition these Advo distributors make you believe they know all about the ingredients which are not all healthy especially in large does like niacin for instance. They want to make you a distributor so you make money for them. It appears to be a pyramid scheme. They are not Doctors and have no MD.

As I read more on it I was scared to death. I felt so awful I quit taking after the 10th day as even a half dose still brought on bad symptoms. Additionally my metastasized breast cancer is also in my liver and this drug could have killed me.

Do yourself a favor and stay away from this product. It is dangerous and will make your life a nightmare.

I agree ! I have had severe allergic reaction to AdvoCare's spark

Guest

What's truly abhorrent is why would an ADVOCARE representative try and take advantage of a person in treatment for Cancer? That's just disgusting but it's not the first time I've seen these idiots try and sell their snake oil to people that are suffering. Shame on them!

Guest

Do you think the Cancer Treatments were the cause of your symptoms and loss of energy? I know it’s very hard on patients.

Please tell me what other products out there that you have tried that may have helped you through your treatments.

Thanks in advance. Prayers for a speedy recovery!
