Why is the world in need of wellness today ?

"On the whole we have increasingly poor nutrition and diet and are more unhealthy than ever" - says Dr Heber Ph.D, chairman of the Herbalife Nutrition Advisory Board. "This combined with other modern lifestyle factors such as stress and pollution could increase the risks of a variety of illnesses and obesity."
