Either way, here’s 11 truths you need to hear about Xyngular.

#11. Young but mighty

They just started in 2009, so they’re right at the 10-year mark. But they’ve already hit over 103 million in annual revenue, and they were named one of the fastest growing companies in Utah FOUR years in a row by Utah Business Magazine. Currently, they’re #47 among Utah’s Fast 50. [4]

#10. Lots more awards…

  • Their product Shine Hormone Optimizer was a finalist for the 2016 SupplySide Editor’s Choice Awards at Informa Exhibitions [5]
  • Shine Hormone Optimizer shortlisted for innovation and market impact in women’s health [6]
  • Made the Inc 5,000 list in 2016, 2017, and 2018 [7]
  • Record-breaking growth in the past 24 months

To name a few…

#9. They have $1 million+ earners

8 of their distributors have made over a million, as of 2016. That’s not a huge number, but it’s good for how new Xyngular was. [8]

#8. Wellness and weight loss products

Their various products serve to help customers with…

  • Weight loss
  • Energy
  • Overall wellness
  • Daily nutrition

Their flagship product, Xyng capsules, are supposed to help customers with fat loss, energy, appetite control, and mood improvement.

Other weight loss products include a protein shake, a yam-based fiber that keeps you full, a valerian root supplement that helps control stress and sleep, and a garlic-based detox supplement.

#7. Products cost a pretty penny

Wellness and nutrition MLMs are notorious for having inflated prices (like Sisel, Isagenix, or Jeunesse), but Xyngular wins the day in that regard.

One bottle of their Cheat+ supplement, with 60 capsules, costs $60, and you’re supposed to take 6 a day. So this $60 bottle lasts you 10 days. That’s $210 PER MONTH. For one part of their weight loss program.

Their full-on 8-day weight loss starter program, the Ignite Kit, is $419. FOR 8 DAYS.

You could probably hire a personal trainer and actually save money at that rate.

#6. Based on naturally-sourced ingredients

Xyng contains green tea extract, 5-HTP (increases serotonin), and yohimbe (boosts circulation).

It’s basically a source of energy and mood improvement. Think coffee without the jitters.

Now, the benefits of 5-HTP haven’t been totally proven,  and taking it regularly might actually have negative side effects if not taken properly. [9]

#5. Short-term rapid weight loss is NOT healthy

Their 8-day weight loss program that costs as much as a 4K LED TV only includes three actual meals over the course of 8 whole days. Most days you’re consuming 500-800 calories, and anything under 1,000 is unhealthy and considered starvation mode for your body. [10]

Basically, the only time you should be restricting your diet that much is out of necessity and under extreme medical supervision. [11]

This also sounds like the mother of all yo-yo diets. To get back to a normal caloric intake you’d be almost doubling your calories, meaning the chances of the weight staying off are slim (pun intended).

#4. But the market is huge and it’s working

But people want their weight loss easy, and they want it now. You can tell them a diet is unhealthy ‘till you’re blue in the face, but if it’s going to make them look hotter for their high school reunion, they’ll probably take the risk.

So, if you’re wanting to sell for Xyngular, what you really need to ask yourself is this: do you need to personally believe in your product to sell it? Can you sell a product that might have health risks?

Even in the shady realm of MLM, almost any salesperson will tell you that you need to be genuinely enthusiastic about your product to sell it.

#3. Headed by Mark Walker

This guy has lead two other successful MLMs—Nuskin and Xango.

He was the Vice President of International Operations at Xango where he got them to hit $500 million in annual sales. He also did the same at Nuskin. There’s a good chance he can do it a third time.

#2. Compensation plan with good rewards for high-ranking distributors

Distributors purchase product at wholesale and sell it at retail for a pretty standard profit margin.

In addition, you get a $24 bonus every time a new member purchases a case for their first monthly order. You earn $100 if you order 120 PV and enroll 4 people in your first 30 days.

100

Residual income is pretty high – 42% on repeat volume sales down to 8 levels. You also get 12% in corporate sales pools, travel rewards, and executive bonuses if you’re a higher-ranking distributor.

#1. Easy advancement

Luckily, it’s pretty easy to advance. There are no structural qualifications for leaders to move up, which is pretty rare in MLM-world.

Recap

Xyngular is a fairly young and growing MLM that has shown some great potential.

While it is still a little early to determine how well they’ll do against the industry giants, they’re off to a great start.

Still, I’ve been involved with network marketing for over ten years so I know what to look for when you consider a new opportunity, and Xyngular has some red flags.

    Product is not a one-size-fits-all beware.

    • Jeremy Page Jan 30, 2017, 12:41 am

      Good to know.

    • Lori Feb 23, 2018, 6:44 pm

      You are correct Linda. That’s why we have coaches to help you figure out what kit/products will work best for your goal/

  • Ginna vincent Feb 12, 2017, 10:43 pm

    I’d kindly like to address some things I see in this article due to the fact that I’m a Xyngular distributor. The prices you are quoting are nowhere near correct. To give you the accurate info I’d love to share. I have the current price list on cheat plus and it’s $45, not $70. It’s suggested use ALLOWS for 6 per day as SAFE, however when taking the necessary needed dosesge to go along with an eating plan we give, the majority of all our customers are averaging a couple per day. Hope that helps to get you some ACTUAL prices from someone who has been coaching this system for over 4 years.

    As far as the 8 day meal plan – that info is highly incorrect as well. Our customers are putting something in their mouth in average of every 2 1/2-3 hours each day, which is not ONLY those protein shakes you’d referred to, but REAL food, such as protein AND veggies EVERY single day. Twice per day on days 1,2,4,6,8 and a whopping 4 times per day on days 3,5,7. No one should EVER be hungry on our system and I do mean ever! If you’re hungry, then you’re advised to eat even more outside of the recommended servings. As far as the calorie intake during the 8 days, yes it’s considerably lower than the typical 1200 per day as advised by the average nutritionists, however you must also understand that this meal plan is focused on nutritional, overall health to GENTLY remove toxins from the body SO THAT people are experiencing SAFE weightloss but focusing primarily on HEALTH, our ultimate goal. We have scientists and nutritionists who work together to put SAFE, effective plans together. It would never be advised to follow such short term, lower calorie “diet” without the support of nutritional supplementation. These people following our 8 day plan are getting a super juice of 22 different fruits and berries, as well as a multi nutrient that has servings of super greens in it. that addresses only the first 8 days bitvto further things…..they continue increasing calories.

    As far as the comp plan, I’m nowhere near the “top”, but I’ve never struggled over the scraps of our company’s comp plan. I earned my first of 4 all expense paid trips within the first two months of being a distributor. The glory of our comp plan is that it’s designed to NOT be where only the top distributors are being well rewarded but that ALL distributors are rewarded, even the newest of the new.

    The average cost I’ve ever seen in 4 years of a customer spending PER month is anywhere from about $30 up to a high of $100, depending on their goals and how quickly they want to achieve them. That is considerably less than a cheap drive thru meal.

    Once again the price of the kit is completely inaccurate. It’s $324.90 and does not last 8 days, but about a month and even a few of those products can last a person 2-3 months.

    Hope this helps to clarify FACTS.

      Nice work…MLM comp plans change all the time so I appreciate you taking the time to update everyone.

    • amanda stickley May 5, 2017, 12:56 pm

      Thank you for posting on this!! The “facts” set here are extremely blurred and untrue. I have people tell me they googled the cost or what we are about and it’s articles like this that tend to scare people. All of the distributors I know truly do love this company and have had results that have stayed. No yo-yo diet here!! Also, did you mention we are a fully coached program? Meaning we don’t “sell” products, we also help the people under us with their health goals!! Jeremy Page, if you would like to write an article about this on real terms I would suggest trying the system!! ?. Plus with the empty bottle money back guarantee, you have nothing to lose!!
      Then we can answer your questions more clearly!! ?
      You have my email, I would be happy to answer any questions!!

      • Jeremy Page Jun 14, 2017, 7:40 pm

        Hey Amanda, seems like you’re pretty passionate, I would kindly accept a 1,000-word, research-backed review of Xyngular since I am a one-man show running this blog that gets over 100,000 views a month.

    • Becky Aug 5, 2017, 5:41 pm

      Ginna thanks for helping me understand this product a lot better , am 178 bls how many pounds can I loose with one kit and which is best the blue kit or the red kit?

    • Denise Frye Oct 19, 2017, 5:19 pm

      Thank you for your response Linda. I too am a distributor and was a bit disturbed by what I read. This is my third MLM company and by far the best!!! That includes the products, the people, as well as the compensation!

    • Randy Apr 26, 2018, 5:46 am

      Guns don’t get so defensive. While the writer if this particular blog may have the number wrong in your “FACT”. Mlm’s Are usually pretty hard to nail down exactly the same for everyone. Also, I don’t know about other folks but when a distributor gets defensive it’s always a red flag for me. And so while your response may be your “fact”. In weight loss and in sales your facts and mine aren’t facts for everyone. That’s a varying number and dose to be sure.
      With that being said it seems like this company is pretty solid. And I’d love to get an ingredient list to see what is actually in the supplements. There are many different ways to deliver the “all natural” ingredients that make a very big difference in what your body will actually absorb. You’ll benefit much more from 500 mg of natural vitamin C then you will 5,000 mg of Walmart synthetic vitamin c.

        Randy seems to be an above-average rational thinker.

  • Jorob Aug 3, 2017, 2:13 am

    I can’t believe a Xyngular user/seller/distributor just said this on facebook:
    “Please talk to me about my health and wellness program before you consider surgery…” Almost sounds like they are questioning doctors recommendations; and possibly giving medical advice.

    • Lori Feb 23, 2018, 6:50 pm

      Jorob, I have several of my Team Members use Xyngular first, before having surgeries, going back into their doctors and absolutely SHOCKING their physicians, to say the least. One of the girls on my team, her Neurologist is HIGHLY recommending Xyngular to her patients now. It absolutely is the ONLY thing that helped me too. Keeping me from having degenerative and osteo back surgery. I am off ALL my pain meds and NO more IBS meds too! I am VERY passionate about this system. I LOVE IT! 🙂

    • Roger Apr 26, 2018, 11:51 pm

      What’s wrong with questioning a DR.? Not all DRs make the right diagnoses and they are in the pockets of the insurance and prescribe pills and recommend surgery to rack up that bill but they say it’s ok it’s covered and yiur left with a 30k bill making calls to insurance I think it might be worth it to listen to the man.

  • Justine Dec 15, 2017, 9:45 pm

    I’m glad the company is making money. I’m not a nasty or negative person. Actually, writing this was difficult, but since I’m now saddled with almost 400.000$ worth of debt I feel I have the right.
    If you’re obese this product will probably work well for you. However, if you are only looking to lose about ten pounds I’d look at other alternatives.
    There’s a money back guarantee to unsatisfied costumers that was not offered to me. Xyngular did not honor their policy.
    I did the ignite program. I was told to NOT take my own supplements for 30 days. I followed the plan to a T, only to lose 1.8 lbs. I also lost a few inches. By week three my resistance had plummeted and I became very ill. I hadn’t been that ill in over ten years.
    Then I had to go the the Dr. No need to address the medical insurance issue in this country. We all know about it!
    So now I have a medical bill to pay on top of the 400.000 on my credit card. Some of the before and after pictures are impressive, but don’t get emotionally blackmailed like I did.
    When I told my rep the results of my experience all I got was ….
    “I’m sorry.” I would’ve been happy with a partial refund of some kind. I wasn’t offered a thing!
    Now I’m stuck paying for something that did nothing but make me ill. By the way… The Axion IS NOT A PROBIOTIC! it’s represented as one, but it is not. I believe that contributed to my illness. I stopped taking mine and began taking theirs, which consists of NO ACTIVE STRAINS OF HEALTHY BACTERIA hence the breakdown of my immune system. Best of luck to those who decide to take the ride, but I’ll leave you with this,
    BUYER BEWARE!
