I was always a fan of the nutraceutical company, Borba, as you can see HERE. Their crystallines and prepared drinks used to be available at Sephora, QVC and at one time, Walgreens. I remember that I spent $300 on various drink packages in preparation for my wedding. My skin looked great!
The drinks were calorie-free, adding flavor and nutrition. The whole thing started when WBAL in Baltimore did an “expose'” of Borba, claiming it didn’t work. I saw the before and after photos of a woman who looked as if she had moved to a spa. I said to myself, “Damn!” and got my credit card out before the newscast was over. That’s a lesson in making up your own mind, friends, and trusting your own eyes.
I just got this email:

In looking online for why this is happening, I found this letter from the FTC. Apparently, you won’t (or shouldn’t) be seeing any Borba at odd lots/salvage places, either.
