Rehan Jalali has released his latest product Pretty Lean, it’s a fat burning supplement. When I came across the notification of his release I thought to myself, “Why fat burner?” I have made many trips to the store to purchase my supplements and I have always seen fat burners. I would read the ingredients they had listed on the back and noticed so many ingredients, some of them which are pretty harmful to your heart and even your brain. I noticed that they didn’t inform you as to how many milligrams of each ingredient listed was in the bottle, especially not knowing how much caffeine you’re taking in, that can be dangerous. I myself have been skeptical about these products. I also didn’t feel as if I needed it, I am already lean. I decided to go on Rehans website anyway, Rehan is someone I trust, if he won’t put it in his body, then I knew for sure he wouldn’t sell it to others. The first thing I noticed was the fact that on the website it said “Combined with good nutrition and exercise program, Pretty Lean can help support Fat Loss, Thermogenesis, Metabolism, Joint and Skin Health.” Which was pretty surprising because most of these fat burners don’t emphasize on proper nutrition and exercise, most companies that sell fat burners make the consumer feel as if the product is a magic pill. I then saw “Don’t Just Get Lean, Get Pretty Lean!” I am always trying to achieve my best self so why am I just going to settle for being lean when I can be leaner? Of course, like any smart consumer I went straight to the ingredients link. I saw a list of 7 ingredients, Green Tea Extract, Green Coffee Bean, Guggulsterones, Cayenne Pepper Powder, Biocell Collagen, Vitamin A, and Chromium. I was ecstatic these were great, clean ingredients, there was... ... middle of paper ... ...ays there to share his knowledge and help guide those that asked for guidance. After having the opportunity to interview him, I got to know that on top of what I had observed and googled, he is also extremely humble, down to earth, lives a normal life, believes in giving, on his website he has a list of charities that one can donate to. He is up to date with his knowledge. He has truly modeled excelling in what you do, giving it 110%, not doing anything in life with a half heart. He has been in this industry for over 20 years and has been pretty consistent with caring about providing information and products that are lifetime investments, not just temporary results with long term consequences. After the interview I felt that he truly lives by, “love for your brother what you love for yourself.” For more information about Pretty Lean, visit www.prettylean.net today.
Recently, another weight loss supplement has stepped into the ever-increasing market. This drug, called Stimulife 750, is a supposedly all-natural herbal supplement that promotes weight loss without any effort from the client. Both the parent company – Stimulife International – and various distributors of Stimulife 750 make bold blanket statements such as “Stimulife 750 has everything good and nothing bad,” which set the success of the pill far higher than is possible. Furthermore, these individuals attempting to sell the product use a variety of marketing techniques to encourage purchasing the supplement; however, they provide no scientific evidence to support the claims they make regarding the safety and effectiveness of the product. By appealing to the clients’ desire for a natural and easy way to lose weight, providing pseudo-scientific statements to convey a sense of authenticity to the product, and befriending the client by seeming to care for their best interests, the distributers attempt to woo more clients. However, Stimulife 750 contains many ingredients included in other “unsafe” weight loss supplements and scientific research shows no clear evidence that Stimulife 750 is any more effective or safe as other diet pills.

I started off the interview with a question about how Ms. Byrd became the manager of Top Dollar Pawn. She told me she acquired her position through family. Her step-dad, Jack, became fascinated with pawn shops after shopping and finding many valuable items. Jack decided to open his own business and asked Rosalyn Byrd if she
Interestingly enough, not a single one of these ingredients actually has anything to do with weight loss. Instead, many of them function solely as stimulants. 137 Trimethylxanthine, for example, is nothing more than simple caffeine, included to potentially boost the speed of users’
His name is Josh Gammon and he manages and creates digital content for Fox23.com and across its social media platforms. So, I asked him how his degree helped him get him to where he is today. And, Josh answered:
With all the unregulated dietary supplements being sold and recommended, our health insurance costs will continue to rise. If the product causes severe side effects, it should no longer be permitted to be sold in stores. The only way to touch the minds of many people is to inform them of the dangers of consuming dietary supplements. Disposing of all incorrect information in product labeling and ingredient lists is important. People need to recognize the faults that plague many advertisements. In addition businesses should promote safe products instead of the harmful ones that they advocate for. The United States Congress should consider regulating dietary supplements to maintain safety. If people are aware of the many lies companies present, then dietary supplements will be one less problem to worry about.
The Weight Watcher’s program was founded in 1961 by Jean Nidetch, who had struggled with her weight throughout childhood and all of her adult life. She decided one day to try yet another diet ran by the New York City Board of Health in Manhattan close to where she lived. After two months she had lost 20 pounds, but she realized a very important component of the diet was missing, a support group of others to share their daily battles with their weight issues. She began writing down all the things she had learned from her meetings in Manhattan and started inviting friends over who were fighting their own battles with their weight. Soon this diet that starting out with a few lady’s in the middle of one lady’s living room would later become a world icon. In late 1961 the Weight Watcher’s Program began. By 1963, just two years Weight Watcher’s was incorporated and by 1967 Weight Watcher’s went global and became Weight Watcher’s International, Inc. including Canada, Puerto Rico, Great Brittain and Israel. Today Weight Watcher’s is one of the leading diet programs in America and operates in over 30 different countries. (Weight Watchers founder Jean Nidetch shares her start, 2010).
Orlistat is a lipase-inhibitor drug designed to help obese individuals lose and maintain their body weight. The drug in combination with a healthy low-fat diet and exercise can help in the treatment of obesity. Reducing fat intake is critical when attempting to reduce body fat. Orlistat reduces body fat by increasing the amount of fat passed through the body. The drug has already been approved in Europe and is expected to be approved by the FDA in the US in 1999.There have been scientific studies which support the effectiveness and low risks of Orlistat. Diet and exercise should be stressed in all attempts at weight loss, yet it seems Orlistat may be a helpful addition to the weight loss program for obese patients.
Some people do not know all that much about exercise and dieting. They do not know healthy ways to eat, and they don’t realize that one can’t get the “Perfect Body” in just a few days. These people are possibly victims of Fitness Myths. “In 2002, the Federal Trade Commission released a report that shared a review of 300 weight-loss ads promoting 218 different products. They found the rampant use of false or misleading claims” (FTC, 2003) Misleading fitness products can be particularly damaging. If one is mislead into purchasing a product and the product doesn’t work as it was advertised, not only have you wasted your money, but also the product may have physically hurt your body. FTC chairman Timothy Muris talks about the advertising and promotion tactics of the fitness industry “ads that make claims and promises that are clearly implausible and patently false run in all forms of media, with the notable exception of network TV” (FTC, 2003). Misleading advertisements are common among all forms of media. Although TV commercials may be more powerful in their persuasion, an obvious reason for this is that TV advertisements show more misleading commercials. A technique frequently used in commercials to make them seem credible is that “many deceptive ads run in highly respected publications and they are perceived to be credible”(FTC, 2003). Therefore if the TV program you are watching, while the commercial is being played, seems credible, consumers tend to believe that the products advertised during the episode are also trustworthy.

I asked him about his life before Aspen and he told me about his past law enforcement experience. He then talked about his childhood and I heard a change of tone in his voice. His facial expression became sad as well. I sensed there was something else he wanted to tell me but I took him slowly down the interview path to gain his trust.
Richard Jun is a Partner at BAM Ventures, a leading firm who has invested in the Honest Company along with many other successful startups. However, like many people in Venture Capital, he didn’t know he wanted to do that job until after his first entry level position. Like the Managing Partner of JUMP Investors, he started as a lawyer. He graduated from Columbia Law School and went into Corporate Law for a Korean Entertainment Company. However, he was quickly bored of his legal job, and left his position to become the General Counsel of ShoeDazzle, a startup created by Brian Lee and Kim Kardashian. From there, he took many other roles in the company. Coming from a legal standpoint, he found it much harder to work as the other positions, such as the CMO. As the company continued to grow, he started to realize what problems a growing company has. Some problems hit such as the company not growing as fast and having to lay off people. Richard didn’t have previous experience in operations and executive
