ITWORKS! WRAPS HAVE 39 INGREDIENTS TOTAL.

11 OF THOSE INGREDIENTS ARE BOTANICAL IN NATURE. 28 OF THOSE ARE NOT. THREE OF THE 28 CONTAIN CONTAMINATES THAT ARE BY PRODUCT OF THE SYNTHESIS OF VOLATILE CHEMICALS INTO HAZARDOUS COMPOUNDS. OF THE 31 NON-BOTANICAL COMPOUNDS: 10 ARE KNOWN CARCINOGENS.

5 ARE KNOWN TO CAUSE SIGNS OF AGING. 8 CARRY A VARIETY OF OTHER TOXICITIES INCLUDING ORGAN TOXICITY, REPRODUCTIVE TOXICITY, CELL DAMAGE, AND THE PRODUCTION OF FREE RADICALS. 6 ARE CONSIDERED TOXIC TO THE ENVIRONMENT. 11 ARE SYNTHETIC COMPOUNDS 1 OF WHICH, TOCOPHEROL AKA NATURAL VITAMIN B, WAS PASSED OVER IN FAVOR OF A MORE HARMFUL SYNTHETIC VERSION OF VITAMIN B KNOWN AS TOCOPHERYL ACETATE.

YOU MAY ASK WHY A COMPANY THAT TOUTS NATURAL INGREDIENTS SO FERVENTLY WOULD MAKE THIS DECISION. WE WILL ANSWER BECAUSE THE SYNTHETIC HAS A LONGER SHELF LIFE AND AFTER A FIRST FORMULA WAS SPOILING BEFORE REACHING CUSTOMERS, THE WOLVES IN CHARGE TRADED THEIR BUSINESS INTEGRITY FOR A MONEY SAVING ALTERNATIVE. ONE COULD SAY THEY POSSESSED ZERO INTEGRITY TO START. 10 ARE TOXIC TO SKIN THAT CAN, HAVE, AND WILL AGAIN CAUSE REACTIONS SUCH AS BLISTERING, SWELLING, BURNING, ITCHING SCALING AND HIVES.

SYMPTOMS THAT, WHEN REPORTED, WERE MET WITH APATHY AND IN MOST CASES THE VICTIM WAS BLAMED OR MEANT TO FEEL THAT THEY USED THE PRODUCT WRONG, OR HAD A PHYSICAL DEFECT SUCH AS SMALL PORES WHICH CAUSED THE REACTION. THE 5TH INGREDIENT LISTED IS DENATURED ALCOHOL (ETHANOL) WHICH IS LITTLE MORE THAN GRAIN ALCOHOL WITH EITHER POISON, DYE, OR A BITTERING AGENT IN THIS CASE CAMPHOR. DENT. ALCOHOL CAUSES PORES TO SHRINK AS DO 3 OTHER INGREDIENTS.

THE INGREDIENT DECYL OLEATE IS COMEODOGENIC MEANING IT CLOGS POURS. CLAIMS OF "DETOXIFYING" WHILE IN ESSENCE TRUE, THE MECHANISM OF THE "DETOXIFICATION" IS OVERLOOKED. INGREDIENTS PROMOTE CELLS IN THE BODY TO RELEASE THEIR TOXINS IN A HASTENED AND LESS METABOLIZED MANNER THAN YOUR BODIES NATURALLY WOULD. THESE TOXINS ARE THEN DUMPED INTO YOUR BLOODSTREAM WHERE THEY CAN GO TO ALL MAJOR ORGANS AND CAUSE ALLERGIC REACTION, NAUSEA, DIZZINESS, VOMITING, DIARRHEA, ORGAN DAMAGE, CARDIAC DISTRESS, AND MALAISE.

THIS HAS HAPPENED TO PEOPLE AND THEY WERE TOLD THEY DID NOT DRINK ENOUGH WATER. THESE PRODUCTS ARE DANGEROUS AND GET MORE DANGEROUS THE MORE THEY ARE USED OR LONGER THEY ARE LEFT ON THE BODY. THE WRAPPING PROCESS ALONE CAN CAUSE CAPILLARY COMPRESSION WHICH WILL CAUSE BURST CAPILLARIES, MUSCLE AND NERVE DAMAGE, AND BLOOD CLOTS. YOU MUST CEASE SELLING THESE PRODUCTS OR YOU RISK HURTING A CUSTOMER AND INCURRING CIVIL OR LEGAL ACTIONS.

ITWORKS! WILL NOT PROTECT YOU AND AFTER SIGNING YOUR CONTRACT, YOU GAVE AWAY YOUR RIGHT TO PASS THE BLAME TO THEM. THIS COMPANY IS A PYRAMID SCHEME. A PRODUCT THAT IS DANGEROUS AND WILL NOT SUSTAIN RETAIL SALES ALONG WITH PROFITS DRIVEN BY THE RECRUITMENT OF PEOPLE, OPPOSED TO SELLING OF PRODUCTS, AND AS COMPLAINTS MADE AT BBB.ORG (BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU) HAVE ILLUSTRATED A COMPLETE NON-INTEREST IN BEING A CUSTOMERSALES DRIVEN BUSINESS.

THEY COUNT ON YOU TO FAIL THAT IS WHY COMMISSIONS ARE COMPRESSED SO WHEN THOSE AT THE BOTTOM FAIL THEIR UNDER-EARNINGS GO TO THE PEOPLE ABOVE WHERE MORE UNDER-EARNINGS ARE COMPILED. THE FARTHER UP THEY ARE THE MORE LITTLE TRICKLES OF LEFTOVERS THEY RECEIVE. YOU MUST SEPARATE YOURSELF FROM THIS COMPANY IMMEDIATELY FOR YOUR OWN WELL BEING AS WELL AS THOSE YOU WOULD PEDDLE THEIR HAZARDOUS WARES. WE WISH YOU WELL.

YOU ARE THE FIRST OF MANY WHOM AT RANDOM WE ARE CONTACTING.

YOUR EYES ARE NOW OPEN. YOU HAVE NO EXCUSES

Reason of review: DANGEROUS PRODUCT.

It Works Cons: Deception.

Location: Palmetto, Florida

I used the wraps on my legs one time and had a terrible reaction...dizzy, and high heart rate for days! Now Iโ€™m terrified of putting anything on my skin :(

Guest

Um, that's not how Distributor commissions work.

Yes, Distributors receive commissions equal to a percentage of what the people under them earn, but it's a completely separate commission. If you you don't make enough commissions for your earnings to be paid out for a particular month, they hold the commissions and add it into your commission for the following month.

They will believe what they want LMAO!!!!! They lie to their consultants, customers etc.

Kess than 0.04% of people make any money off of MLM's. Same people defending it, are they same people that cant even sell it.

Guest

People who have toxins built up are going to have these symptoms, some more severe than others. I used the wrap a few weeks ago and it revitalized my body.

The day after i used it the first time I had a huge headache from detox. This didnโ€™t bother me because i understand that my body was pulling out toxins and dumping them out of my body. I drank lots of water. People need to understand how the body signals.

You can also get detox symptoms from using certain herbs. I AM NOT A DISTRIBUTOR but I am a happy customer. I am sorry you felt sick. I would highly recommend you read up on detox side effects.

You may have a lot of toxins built up in you that may later cause disease. Iโ€™ve been doing things naturally for a long time.

It takes time to detoxify. You may need to start a little at a time.

You go on about understanding how the body signals but I can bet you have had no medical tests to determine what's really going on. If I developed a huge headache from a product, I would never use it again.

People have told you that your body is detoxing so you simply believe them and never consider the more likely scenario that your body has been poisoned. ItWorks is dangerous woo sold by people with no authority to give advice.

I just looked up the Ingredients in the wraps and found nothing that wouldn't be in normal cosmetic products lol unless the ingredients have changed since then and if they have they don't seem to be anything crazy that I've looked up

They don't have to name them all.... I just think some people are gullible and believe anything some one will promise.

The It work wraps caused rapid heart rate and bad anxiety that lasted a long time. People don't realize that you absorbe anything that you put on your skin.

The wraps started a whirlwind of problems.

I couldn't pinpoint a reason for my sudden onset of health issues; rapid heart rate, insomnia, and severe anxiety, but looking back it started when I was using the wraps every other day for a week and once a week following. Please be cautious of the things you put in and on your body.

***. Why were you wrapping every other day? It cleary says wait 72 hours between each wrap.

Guest

Omg! You wrapped every other day?!

When you wrap, you are DETOXING! You can't put your body through that much detox so quickly.

The directions clearly state to wait AT LEAST 72 hrs in between every wrap. Please read instructions...

Medical fact: your body will NOT pull toxins out of the skin. They can enter, but will not leave in any significant amount. You'll expend all of your electrolytes first.

Guest

I'm not saying this didnt cause this but the wraps aren't suppose to be worn every other day. 1 wrap per week only. Your body needs 72 hours for the 1st wrap to clear the system.

Guest

You arenโ€™t suppose to use them that often

Yeah see a person like me could possibly die from it. I am 29 and have AFIB symptoms when something triggers it my heart rate sky rockets.

These things would kill me my doctor said no to them soon as she read the ingredients. She agreed with this post.

How about the ingredients list and Google! It doesn't take a PhD in Chemistry to do a little research.
