AdvoCare Catalyst is an amino acid dietary supplement that helps maintain muscle mass during workouts and while following a reduced calorie diet.  Depending on the amount and type of food consumed each day we may loose lean muscle mass at the same time we are burning fat.  The goal of course is to loose just the fat and not muscle.  AdvoCare Catalyst ensures you get the right amount of amino acids your body needs to preserve it's existing muscle mass while you loose fat.  Catalyst should be taken 10-15 minutes before exercising or in between meals when restricting your calorie intake.

In summary... Catalysts helps retain muscle mass and reduce fat.  AdvoCare Catalyst works best when taken in conjuction with a healthy diet, exercise program and other supporting AdvoCare products.

AdvoCare has a vast array of products that support weight loss, lean muscle building and increased energy.  AdvoCare is not predominately a diet pill company but some of it's vitamins and supplements do contain appetite suppressants to help curb cravings and make it easier to follow the recommended diet and usage of the AdvoCare muscle building meal replacement and healthy snack products.

One of AdvoCare's newest products that is specifically an herbal and mineral dietary supplement or diet pill is called LeptiLean.  LeptiLean is a premium weight management product for those struggling to control portion size and appetite.  It boots your metabolism while providing a feeling of fullness and satiety.  While LeptiLean may be a great weight loss diet pill it is not part of the 24 Day Challenge Bundle and many people that enjoy success from using AdvoCare products may not purchase this particular diet pill.

Read this post and thread for another discussion and independent review on AdvoCare products and people's experience with them.

What is informed choice and how does it relate to AdvoCare?  Informed-Choice, http://www.informed-choice.org, is an independent company that tests and certifies supplements are safe for athletes (and the rest of us) and that they don't contain any banned substances that would disqualify an athlete from participating in or winning a sporting event.

The fact that AdvoCare is widely used by professional and olympic athletes and these athletes are subject to drug tests and need to be concerned about their nutrition and what supplements they put into their body should give everyday health conscious adults confidence that AdvoCare products are safe and effective.  Fitness enthusiasts can take comfort that while AdvoCare products may enhance their workouts and training regimens there aren't any ingredients in AdvoCare supplements that the World Anti-Doping Agency considers harmful.

Is AdvoCare a scam or a Pyramid Scheme?

Absolutely not.  Yes, I am an AdvoCare Advisor which means I've purchased enough AdvoCare products to receive all future orders at the 40% discount so sure you could argue that I'm biased.  But... consider a few obvious points to help you make up your own mind.

• Drew Brees, NFL Superbowl winning quarterback of the New Orleans Saints, is the national spokesman for AdvoCare.  Do you think Drew would advocate a pyramid scheme or scam?
• Hundreds of other professional athletes use and/or endorse AdvoCare products.  Are they all part of a scam?  Sure they probably have financial incentive for promoting the products but a pyramid scheme, really?
• AdvoCare has existed and thrived for more than a decade.  Most Pyramid schemes have very short lifespans.  AdvoCare has all of it's products evaluated by Informed-Choice.org, an independent anti-doping and quality, safety organization created to protect athletes and ensure a level playing field for public competitions.

Is AdvoCare a Direct Sales or Direct Marketing company?

Absolutely yes.  This is how their products are distributed.  The company grows by word of mouth usually from friends or family telling other friends or acquaintances about their experiences with the products and the company.  With this model of distribution you need to ask yourself if a company could be successful if there weren't some merit to their products.

Here are some other well know companies that have very similar structures and use the Direct Sales model or multi-level marketing distribution method.  Maybe you've heard of a few of these other MLM companies?

• Tupperware
• Pampered Chef
• Avon
• Thirty-One Gifts
• Southern Living
• Mary Kay
• Scentsy Candles
• Too many more to list...

Typically these direct sales companies only survive and do well if customers who buy the products are satisfied and remain repeat customers.  Make up your own mind of course but try to be objective and consider multiple sources of information.   Are you typically a negative person or a positive person?  If you would like more information on AdvoCare Products or might be interested to join AdvoCare please don't hesitate to contact me.
