Carmen Hercules
and Evelia Menjivar
Mr. Carmen Hercules was 65 pounds overweight, he was also very tired, had bad eating habits, drank too much alcohol, was losing his sight and already felt that he had reached old age.
Mrs. Evelia suffered from itchy feet due to a fungus, and was also 45 pounds overweight.
By starting to use Herbalife products, Mr. and Mrs. Hercules experienced an improvement in weight and fatigue. Mr. Carmen managed to lose 65 pounds, lower his stomach, and rejuvenated himself, all within 3 months of using the products.
Mrs. Evelia managed to lose 45 pounds in the same period, and managed to control the itching in her feet through intestinal cleansing and on the outside of her feet by applying Herbalife aloe gel and the cell activator tablet.
Now, this is me, German Hercules, with my parents, who at the time became my downline distributors. As a result of their success with the product, they came to one of the live trainings we had at the time and became very interested in the business. Also, my wife and I had started the business and had our own results with the product about a year before, and that is how we introduced my parents to Herbalife products and the business opportunity.
My wife, Marisol Hercules, had lost about 70 pounds in about 3 months and her health had improved a lot. I lost 35 pounds and got rid of a terrible problem of constipation, gas and pain in my feet.
After our own results, we went to a meeting where we heard a tremendous story from one of the company's most successful distributors, Mr. Pedro Cardoso. His story transformed my life when I saw what was possible in this opportunity. From there, I went to classes to understand and know how this type of success was possible and I invited my parents to join me. From there my great organization arose, because when my father heard about an opportunity like Herbalife, he fell in love with what was possible. The next day we spoke with my 7 brothers and sisters and there was a great explosion in my business. Several bought the largest purchase to get the biggest discount and became supervisors to save 50% off their products. At that time it was an investment of $4000 dollars and 5 of them did it... my parents made a volume in the business that allowed them to earn a vacation in the Bahamas with all costs paid, limousine, party. It was crazy. My dream of seeing my parents doing a less strenuous, more relaxed activity than what they had worked their whole lives for and having the opportunity to enjoy it, travel, and be healthier... was wonderful. And that's how it was for 18 years.
Here are my parents speaking at an event and being recognized...
This is part of the organization that they were forming
Here I am with my father in Hawaii, where we expanded the business and spent time at the same time
My dream came true when they managed to have a different lifestyle and travel to different places in the world...
My parents managed to travel to many places including Rome, Italy, Switzerland, France, Israel, Egypt, Coco Bay, Hawaii, Mexico, Puerto Rico, and many states in the United States...and they were always happy and content to bring the idea of good nutrition to everyone.
And well, in 2020 when the pandemic hit, it affected my parents and my father succumbed to the disease and passed away that year, leaving the business to my mother. She also passed away the following year, her heart could not take it anymore, and she left the business to my brothers and me, although this business is inheritable.
And well, I, German Hercules, am the official representative of our Hercules family membership and it is an honor to continue developing our wonderful organization and this beautiful activity of following Mark Hughes' mission...of changing nutritional habits from person to person around the entire world!
