[@bunn228]

The first one needed way more research than what she could present it was total bs. Like what's the standard hair cycle? Cause I'm sure it's not 28 days. How do you know that it was the product that caused the less grey hairs and it wasn't due to chance? Also how can 50 people represent all ethnicities all over the world. People have various hair types and depending from where you're from your biochemistry does actually slightly differ from those in another country. So who's really the target for that product?

She starts companies, takes whatever cash she makes, doesn’t pay taxes, doesn’t provide accounts and walks away. Over 90% of failed companies comply with the law and submit accounts. All but one of hers didn’t. She’s a grifter. There’s nothing wrong with failure in business and corporation law recognises that because the easiest way not to fail is never to try. The purpose of limited liability is to protect people from ruination because their efforts were unsuccessful. You only risk the money you put into the venture. In return you have to follow the rules and prove the other investors and the government which underwrites the guarantee aren’t the victims of a dishonest action. She didn’t follow the rules and she did it over and over again. I’ve run businesses which failed but I always submitted accounts.

@@general_prodigy it feels more official like it’s going to be more beneficial I mean when you go to the hospital do they give you pills or do they pop in an IV and give it to you that way because it’s the quickest most effective way. Taking a pill by mouth your body still going to have to absorb it before it can do any good. An IV going straight into the bloodstream it’s skipping that stuff entirely. A lot of vitamins people take you don’t even absorb and then there’s more vitamins you can take to help with absorption so it goes on.
