A big shout out to James Douglas, a poster on the Repspace.com forums for contributing this awesome piece of information.

For those of you keeping up with the Regenerect saga, and for those of you who hadn't heard of Regenerect, its a product that was released by a company called Regeneca. Regeneca is a health and wellness mlm company that began marketing Regenerect as an all natural erectile booster. The product was very expensive, and came labeled as not containing any unnatural ingredients, such as the vital components that make prescription pills such as Viagra effective. After the product was launched, it was proven to be very effective in doing what it said it did, causing a major stir all over the mlm and direct selling industry. Along with the direct effect of better erections, people were also experiencing blood pressure spikes, severe headaches, lightheadedness and other similar symptoms.

To put it in perspective, if you are one of the many unlucky candidates who don't have the right kind of ticker to handle Viagra, then the stuff potentially kill you. In short, Regenerect was released as an all natural "supplement" that promised it was safe for everyone. Naturally, anyone who observed the product and wasn't found fit for Viagra thought they found a healthy alternative and jumped on it. As it turns out, Regenerect was found to contain the drug Sildenafil, which is the active pharmaceutical ingredient in Viagra, and an FDA-approved drug used for the treatment of erectile dysfunction. To the best of my knowledge, no one was harmed or suffered any fatal effects from this scam, but the fact remains that it leaves a somewhat silent, significant change to the mlm world in general, because we once had to worry about losing money, but now we need to consider our lives, and those of our clients, should we be involved with a direct selling company..

Below is a link to a letter written by the FDA in regard to its decision about Regenerect. (Link provided by James Douglas).

Wow, pretty awesome contribution James, thank you very much for posting it for us to read. I didn't think I would hear any updates on this topic for awhile so I stopped following it so closely. What are you plans now sir? Are/have you moved on to a new mlm company, sticking with Regenerect, or going to try something else entirely? If you don't mind, I'd like to make that letter it's own post, citing you with the credit of course. Feel free to keep us updated, and thanks again for posting that link.

As expected.

Wondering what the fallout will be from the blatant misrepresentations Regenerect made on their site about not containing any of the active ingredients in prescription erectile dysfunction products.

Anyone who was taking the drug that had been warned by a physician NOT to take this type of medication would seem to have a pretty decent cause for a lawsuit.

Any legal experts care to comment?

Not so fast and not so natural is RegenErect Wallace.... your initial suspicians were correct.

FDA came after these crooks.   It contains the DRUG that is in Viagra.   The company had to recall all the product made.  Simply google FDA Recall RegenErect and you can read what the FDA has to say and the sugar coated press release Regeneca published.

Good Job Wallace !

Another scam exposed.

Yeah, there are options to buy that high. I heard if you go to the site you mentioned on regenerect that you can get the product at better rates if you email their customer service.

I'll tell ya what, I never had a problem in my life with this kind of thing, not even while drinking heavily. I managed to coast through my teens, twenties and now I'm at the end of my thirties, and strangely it wasn't until I lost weight, began exercising 3 times a week and taking Isagenix that I'm experiencing problems now and again. Don't get me wrong, its rare and only once in awhile, but I swear since I lost weight I lost some of my sex drive with it. My wife warned me about prescriptions and being the loving soul she is; reaffirmed my idea that its just something that happens once in awhile as you get older, and she's probably right but honestly, if I thought there was something natural I could take for those rare times that might give the old boy a boost, I'd be willing to give it a try. I recall people saying you can just by the ingredients yourself, but that won't help much if there is some super secret ingredient in there lol. I can't say whether or not Regenerect is a scam, but I got to be honest with yall and tell ya that there sure are many people giving their praise, and its hard to ignore it.

I appreciate your post, and I can get a pretty good idea how strongly you feel about the product and apreciate your passion, but I must decline as far as ordering. They are way overpriced as it is, and while I'm willing to try it, I still feel it probably isn't healthy. Hell caffiene is a natural substance, yet too much of it causes all kinds of problems, and so far people are having some harsh side effects with this.

My friend that turned me on to this product is planning on buying a 1000 pills. their is a number of us pitching in.  In a 1000 pill count purchase you get them for $5 each.  The suggested sale of these is basically $16 bucks a pill buying them one pill at a time at http://www.iregenerect.com/buy-regenerect-online.html.  Sounds expensive, but Viagra is 26.60 a pill and Levitra is 24.58 a pill according to Walgreens Madeira Beach FL.

Yes i read your posts about the ability to buy each of these ingredients at a fraction of the cost.  But I would not know how to mix these together and get the right formula to make it work. (at least I don't think I would)  What does Viagra have in it? I don't care, but i bet each ingredients is cheap too (I don't know) but the point is, someone did the research to combine these to make a pill that made me KING for three nights.  Wow! I am still freaked out about last weekend.  You know, you have all the tools to be a great lover when you are young but you don't have the knowhow.  Now I have the knowhow but my tools only works for a good 30 min.  Now with this pill I am like the Energizer Bunny.

Believe me I am not trying to sell this product to you.  Like I said I am not getting in the MLM that is evolved.  I am gaining nothing from you trying it.  I am just trying to help spread the word because it was so good it is going to spread throughout the world and that penny stock is going to make me rich.

Just think, maybe 2 yrs from now when the stock could be at 26 bucks a share.  You will think, yeah! pablosushie tried to tell me about this stuff but know body ever sent me a free sample.

Think about it.  All of you.  I mean there is another guy on here that tried it and was so convinced it works he left his Name and Phone number.  I would bet if you called it... it would be him.

I would give all of you guys a free sample if I could and I feel lucky that I got one, but from here out I am going to have to pay.

I would try a free sample, so if anyone is willing to send me one, I'll be more than happy to do an unbiased review on the results. Until then, and I mean this respectfully, its hard for me to take accounts like this 100 percent seriously, although you have me 90% convinced you're authentic. I was pretty hard on this product (no pun intended) and I still think a little exercise and a bit less drinking would be a far better cure than a pill that can't even give you an honest ingredient list, and causes hypertension. By the way, hypertension is probably not the best cherry on your health sundae of smoke, and inactivity, but I'm not here to preach; your lifestyle is your lifestyle and I respect that. I smoked for about 15 years and drank a good bit myself, so I can definitely relate to some of the unhelpful after effects during really bad times that it can cause. Had I had a pill that would load a round in, I'd have taken it, even if only for that once in awhile problem.

I think you are being to kind...16 bucks plus shipping and handeling...

 it better give me a three day Boner.  Why does it work, not to mention, need such dire health warnings for Hypertension and so many other issues.  If serrapeptase helps eliminate inflamation, it would not surprise me that it would have a benefit toward erection, but I am left asking "Why will it kill me if I take it everyday"..."What is the danger that requires a Hypertension warning?"  Curious Minds wish to know...

Regeneca fixed the typo on the Regenerect page finally ( in both places ). But they won't release the clinical trials for public consumption.

There can be no good reason that I can think of for why a legitimate company would refuse to make public the clinical tests on their product ( which they quote on their site ) when it's for an ingestible product.

Much love to you all. I have followed this from the beginning and I just wanted to point out what is most important. It is unfortunate that sometimes people are less than honest, but as far as I can see on the Internet, no one was seriously harmed by these pills, and for that I am rejoicing. I agree with you Wallace that this is the kind of deceit that should not be forgiven in regard to the company, but it would be the best thing for all involved to find a lesson within it to learn, and move on with their lives. One thing that I find quite interesting is that on the web site, and on the net, there is not much chatter about such things, it is almost as if it did not happen.

Why is this?

lmao, that was particularly amusing....

Always an over reaction from people currently involved in whatever mlm we're discussing. I can partially understand if I've been duped into a plan that just wasn't panning out, but not to such a degree as what truthsetsyoufree came at us with. At that point that is basic denial, and I am noticing a trend with people lately when it comes to negative/positive. I'm all about people not being jerks, not consistantly complaining, whining, and always focusing on something negative, but lately something has started to change in our culture. People are beginning to deliberately put blinders on and wilfully focus on nothing but what brings them comfort. I can understand if you don't need to watch the news at night, or if you're down and trying to focus on positive things, but some of you seriously need some help. Ignoring bad things does anything but make them go away, go ahead and try it with cancer. What is wrong with you when you get to the point that you can see a bad mlm, or a scam and still choose to ride it out (even willing to suck in others to hurry up and stuff beneath you). People like this are either totally ignorant, or deliberately deceptive. I don't particularly enjoy the company of either.

Jangowarrior, I don't think in any of my coffee-induced pyscho rants that I have made here at these boards, that I could have given a better response to Truthsetsyoufree. I come here because I have a somewhat passive interest in Mlm companies, and I am most definitely what most would consider green. I'm trying to learn what is out there, what the true definition of an mlm company is. I want to learn what is bogus from what is legitimate, and as tough as crowds can sometimes be; I have learned more here at Repspace than I have ANYWHERE else. I can understand that on the surface we can sometimes be a bit tough, but this is definitely a place of truth at least with most of the regulars. If there is a flaw in a company, its product, its comp plan, or its executive team; it will be discussed here. At the same time, if there are things that are different, or revolutionary, or overall positive, it will also be known.

There is no more room for accentuating the positive and downplaying the negative, that is all most people (especially company reps) do, and it is often the sole reason truth is the last thing you manage to find. While I myself am a poor example of being a gentleman when it comes to some of these topics, alot of these guys like Jango, Watchdog and a few others have a great deal of insight, and they struggle everyday trying to protect what is good about the industry, and what is sometimes misunderstood by the average person. They do this even after companies let them down, even when they don't represent any competing companies at all. So your little hissy fit is completely unfounded and makes you look like a sore rep trying to alleviate the wound of a company that really did screw the people. You can't possibly preach to us about focusing on the positive here. You know what is positive? That as far as we know, no one has died as a result of this company's intentional negligence. THAT is positive.

Do you people really spend your time in trying to be right?

[/quote]

No, not really. "Trying to be right" would imply that the posts in these forums about Regenerect were wrong, when for all intents and purposes all the prophetic warnings about the ingredients being potentially mislabeled in fact turned out to be 100% correct. Is that what you mean by trying to be right?

[quote user="truthsetsyoufree"]

Why don't you go out and build your business and support the industry instead of being these whinny pathetic people!

[/quote]

It doesn't seem like anyone is whining, simply pointing out a fact. The FDA whacked Regenerect because of illegal prescription ingredients. Who is responsible for the contents of the consumable product? Regenerect of course. Not really getting the 'whinny pathetic part" but I'm pretty sure that "whinny" sound more like what a horse does.

[quote user="truthsetsyoufree"]

 Do you lead your team this way with the negative or do you lead with a positive mind set? Oh I know your here in these forums to try and convert people in your deal by trying to prove your right and you know all! If thats the case show us your check!

[/quote]

I know I personally haven't posted a single thread or response trying to convert anyone into another deal. Reading through all the Regenerect and Regeneca threads, I don't see anything of that kind anywhere either. Do you assume that because someone points out a glaring flaw in a deal you happen to be promoting that it means they have some ulterior motive besides simply hoping to help someone from being scammed in the future?

[quote user="truthsetsyoufree"]

That probably isn't happening so why don't you become a force for good and support the industry instead!

[/quote]

Any time someone educates the marketplace and helps prevent people from being scammed - or from taking a consumable product promoted by a company that went to great lengths to claim that it contained only natural ingredients - that's supporting the industry.

Your philosophy seems to be that you need to have a "positive mind set" when promoting a company that could potentially have caused a great deal of harm to the health and well being of people who trusted their claims.

Did you write a complaint letter to the FDA? Maybe you should let them know you think they should have a 'positive mind set' when checking for illegal prescription levels of drugs in your company's products.

Maybe when the FTC or the Attorney General gets around to looking into this ( I'm guessing there's a 90% chance that will happen sometime soon ) you can give them the same advice too.

One last thought for your 'positive mind set' - had you sold or given a sample of the tainted product to a friend or family member who was taking another medication or had a condition that was severely adversely affected, causing permanent harm or even death, would you be thinking 'positive' about your 'check'?

Do you people really spend your time in trying to be right? Why don't you go out and build your business and support the industry instead of being these whinny pathetic people! Do you lead your team this way with the negative or do you lead with a positive mind set? Oh I know your here in these forums to try and convert people in your deal by trying to prove your right and you know all! If thats the case show us your check! That probably isn't happening so why don't you become a force for good and support the industry instead!

Sorry Doc, I stepped on your toes on this one, I didn't know you already had this post when I did one with the same name. If you want, I'll change the title, although I bet having two of them up might get more people to read about it. In any event, pretty amazing stuff huh? Watchdog had it nailed with that "typo" lol

Regenerect: Recall - Undeclared Drug Ingredient

Ethos Environmental, Inc. Issues a VoluntaryRecall of Specific Lots of the DietarySupplement Regenerect

Press Release

Source: Ethos Environmental, Inc.

On Thursday April 28, 2011, 6:35 pm EDT

IRVINE, Calif., April 28, 2011 -- Ethos Environmental, Inc. (Pink Sheets:ETEV ) announced today that it is conducting a voluntary nationwide recall of the company's dietary supplement sold under the brand name Regenerect with the following LotNumbers:

100521 - blue capsule sold individually in foil packets, expires 5/2012

112850 - clear capsule sold individually in foil packets, expires11/2013

Sildenafil is an FDA-approved drug used as treatment for male ErectileDysfunction (ED). The active drug ingredient is not listed on the label for these products. According to the FDA, use of these products may pose a threat to consumers because theanalogue may interact with nitrates found in some prescription drugs (such as nitroglycerin) and may lower blood pressure to dangerous levels. FDA has advised that consumers with diabetes,high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or heart disease often take nitrates. FDA has advised thatED is a common problem in men with these conditions, and consumers may seek these types of products to enhance sexual performance.

Ethos Environmental, Inc. has distributed Regenerect via sales made over the internet to consumers in the United States of America and Puerto Rico.Ethos Environmental, Inc. advises any customers in possession of the Regenerect productmatching the lot numbers above to return any unused product for an exchange, or a full refund,to the company directly.

Regular Mail: use postage-paid, pre-addressed Form FDA 3500 available

This recall is being conducted with the knowledge of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

Actually, giving you credit of course, I'd like to write another post covering this topic if you don't mind.

wow, thanks for the tip, and this is basically what a good friend of mine thought all along. My first thoughts was that it didn't work at all and was all based on fake testimonials from reps, but now I see it does work, and it works because its basically viagra with silkworm in it lol. I'm sorry but what a bunch of bullshitting con artists. I remember "frodo" coming in on another thread, riding the high horse and telling me and others how ignorant we were for assuming it was somekind of scam. I bet we won't see any posts from him anymore. I even tried to relax about it and not be so harsh but I guess that was pointless. Oh well, thanks for the news fda.

The FDA did a legit lab analysis and it has the same drug ingredient that VIAGRA has in it.

Check out and google FDA Recall RegenErect for more info !

The next step will be when someone does a LEGIT lab analysis and finds that Regenerect has more in it than it has listed lol. You can't compete with Viagra, or all its knock-offs, not unless you offered this stuff at a much cheaper price. That's even assuming it works, which I also question, but I have no idea one way or another. I would try it though, to see if it has any effect at all. My boss has a friend that tried it and to say he got a headache was putting it lightly, he felt like he had a hangover. That's seriously not a good thing even if it only effects a percentage of people, a mild headache is one thing, a debilitating migraine is another. The other issue is the ingredients in comparison with the price, I listed them all in another thread, every single one of them can be purchased in a higher quantity for under 5 bucks. I listed every ingredient and could even provide links to numerous sites that provide them, and no one had anything to say. I don't get it, what's wrong with you people, do you LIKE to spend your money like sheep? are you rich and just don't care, or is it that pretty box with all the testimonials? If you bought the ingredients separately and some organic gelatin capsules, I bet you would get a boner just from the money you saved. Then again, maybe you could care less.

This is an interesting debate going on and I have learned alot regarding these matters.

What do you guys think the next step is? Will this actually work? I am interested to see how it all unfolds in the near future!
