3 What makes up the LIMU LEAN fitness and weight management system? Our unique system is composed of products that work together to promote healthy weight loss and great fitness while delivering great nutrition and faster recovery after workouts. The easy-to-use system includes three products that are designed for synergistic use Meal Replacement Shakes (Dutch Chocolate, Creamy Vanilla) Appetite Controller Cellular Health Cleanse What makes LIMU LEAN different than other systems? is the only weight management system that includes the supernutrient Fucoidan. You can enjoy some of the benefits you get from LIMU ORIGINAL while using our system to help you manage your fitness and weight, and we encourage you to continue drinking LIMU ORIGINAL for your overall wellness. In addition, the proteins and formulas used in the shake and our other products are specifically engineered to make you healthier even while you re losing weight. Can I still eat while using? Absolutely! In fact, we recommend that you eat a sensible meal and three healthy snacks each day. Starving yourself won t help you lose weight, but our products in conjunction with the right nutrition and activity plan will! Just remember to count your calories and maintain a sensible eating plan. How does the Meal Replacement Shake help me? Each Meal Replacement Shake provides a healthy balance of nutrients, including 20 grams of high-quality protein and 35% of the Recommended Daily Allowances for many important vitamins and minerals. It can be used as a full meal replacement (which helps you stay satisfied) and we recommend drinking two shakes each day for optimal weight loss. The shake contains an optimum balance of protein sources for a lean and toned lifestyle and offers an easy way to keep portion size under control. The shake also helps you recover energy faster and stay fit. How much money could I save by replacing some of my meals with the Meal Replacement Shakes? We estimate that replacing breakfast and lunch meals would save an average of at least $3 to $4 per meal. A complete system provides enough product to replace 56 meals per month, which means you could save between $168 and $224 in a month by using our Meal Replacement Shakes. Does the Meal Replacement Shake contain any preservatives? The Meal Replacement Shake contains NO preservatives. Does the Meal Replacement Shake replace my daily consumption of LIMU ORIGINAL or BLU FROG? Not really, because our Meal Replacement Shakes are formulated to assist in weight loss and fitness. You should continue drinking two to four ounces of LIMU ORIGINAL a day for optimal health, and continue drinking BLU FROG whenever you need a boost of extra energy. Can children use the Meal Replacement Shake? Yes. The ingredients in our Meal Replacement Shake are nutritious, healthy and designed for use by both adults and children. Can you give me some guidelines to follow for my sensible meal? Here are some suggestions to help you make the healthiest food choices possible: Fruits and vegetables add fiber, water and vitamins to your meals with relatively few calories. Eat at least five servings of fruit and vegetables per day. Choose whole-grain foods more often: wheat or multi-grain breads, brown rice, whole-wheat pastas and high fiber whole grain cereals. Drink 6-8 glasses of water daily. Water is essential to your body and an important element of your weight loss plan. Get enough protein in your diet, especially from lean meats, skinless poultry, fish, eggs and beans. Limit your added salt, sugar and alcohol intake. Sodium should be limited as part of a healthy weight loss plan and sugary foods and alcohol contain calories with no nutritional value. If you already take vitamin supplements, continue taking them. Does the Meal Replacement Shake require FDA approval? Our Shake is manufactured to safety and quality standards that meet or exceed all government standards. The FDA regulates the quality and safety of dietary supplements, but there is no FDA-specific approval offered for dietary supplements. PAGE 3 OF 6

4 (CONTINUED) Why is the Appetite Controller an important part of? On any weight management plan, you are bound to get hungry. Used once a day, our Appetite Controller not only keeps you from being overcome with hunger pains, but also works as a metabolism booster, helping you burn fat more efficiently. Why is it essential to use the Cellular Health Cleanse? The Cleanse acts as a 7-day tune up of sorts for monthly digestive health. It allows your body to better support optimum nutrient absorption and is a good source of natural dietary fiber. It also aids in relieving digestive stress through the 9 different healthy bacterial species included in the Cleanse. How long will it take me to lose weight with? Weight loss is different for every person. However, our pre-launch trial study showed most people losing weight after the very first week of integrating the lifestyle into their routine. Others lost weight after the first few weeks. Is there gluten in any of the products? No. Every single product is gluten-free, as is our entire line of LIMU products. Do the Meal Replacement Shakes contain soy? Yes. The lecithin in the product comes from soybeans, which contributes to the shake s texture and consistency. It is listed as the last ingredient on the label since there is only a trace amount of soy in the shake mixture. How many carbohydrates are in each Meal Replacement Shake? There are 31 grams of carbohydrates per shake; however, only three of those grams are sugar carbohydrates. The recommended daily limit of sugar carbohydrates for weight loss is about 20 grams per day. Can I drink the Appetite Controller and the Shake together? All of the products have been created to be used together, but not necessarily mixed together. We recommend that you mix your Shake, Appetite Controller and Cleanse with water, in order to not add calories to your intake. You can also mix our products with whatever beverage best suits you, but remember you may be adding calories. Is the Appetite Controller better to take hot or cold and should I sweeten it? Since your body must naturally heat any cold beverage up, it s best if you drink the lemon-flavored Appetite Controller hot for faster bioavailability. There are already some great natural sweeteners in the Appetite Controller, so adding more isn t necessary. Is it important to have less or more calories than the daily recommended amount? It is very important to keep within the calorie range recommended, and not skip shakes or your sensible meals because your body needs the nutrients. As a reminder, women should consume at least 1200 calories per day, while men should consume at least 1600 calories per day. Why is it important to keep track of my weight and waist measurements weekly? Many people experience plateaus, a normal phase in the weight loss process. Measuring and weighing yourself at the beginning of every week will help you stick to the program and see what results you re having. What is the best time of day to drink the Appetite Controller? You know your body best and you know what time of day your cravings are likely to hit, so use it for those times. Some people even like to split up a single portion over the course of a day. Keep in mind the Appetite Controller will give you a metabolism boost, so you may not want to make it your late night beverage. PAGE 4 OF 6

5 (CONTINUED) Can I travel with the system? Absolutely! The system is so simple, you can use it wherever it is you are. Your travel plans will never interfere with your diet plans again. What can I add to my Meal Replacement Shakes? Our Shake can be enjoyed without adding anything other than water. You may add chopped almonds, fruit or ice for a thicker Shake, but don t forget to count the extra calories. You may want to mix your Shake in a blender rather than the blender bottle provided, if you are adding extra ingredients. If I use twice as much powder in my Shake, or if I drink more than two Shakes per day, will I lose weight twice as fast? Our Meal Replacement Shake should be used only two times a day in order to maintain optimal nutrition, in combination with sensible meals and a greater level of exercise or activity. Using more of the product will not help you lose weight more quickly. The system was designed as a synergistic plan, and we recommend you follow the instructions as you participate. I m not losing as much weight with the system as I am losing inches. What does this mean? As your body starts to rid itself of fat, it may replace the fat with new muscle. When this happens, you ll notice that you re losing inches all over. This is why it s important to start out with initial measurements; you can t always tell how well it s working by the scale alone! Can I use the Meal Replacement Shake in combination with weight loss pills? We do not recommend using any other weight loss products while you are using the products. Can women who are pregnant or nursing drink the Meal Replacement Shake? We do not recommend women who are pregnant or nursing use our products. If you are pregnant or lactating, you should consult a physician prior to starting any weight loss program. What side effects might I expect to see with? Any new weight management program may cause minor side effects, such as constipation, sleepiness or headaches. Often those side effects are caused due to not eating enough or not drinking enough water or not getting the right level of fiber in your diet. For some, the enhanced nutrients in the products may be different than those your body is used to. Be sure to use all of the products as recommended, and report any serious side effects to your physician. You should also consult your doctor to address any possibility of allergies. How do I combat weight loss plateaus? First of all, evaluate what you re eating. What is your protein intake? What is your sodium intake? Can you increase your exercise? All of these things will help get you beyond any plateaus. Remember that being on a plateau is just your body s way of reassessing its needs and is actually a good thing! Why should I use BURN? BURN is a healthy, weight-conscious alternative to snacking in between meals. Each 8.4 oz. can is specially formulated to satisfy the mid-morning and afternoon snack attacks that are known to derail healthy eating habits and impede weight loss. When hunger and diet fatigue strike, fight back and pop open a can of BURN. What does BURN taste like? With a pleasant fizz and a light citrus flavor, BURN is a refreshing and satisfying beverage rich in protein and dietary essentials. Does BURN contain LIMU ORIGINAL? BURN does not contain LIMU ORIGINAL ; however, each can does contain 1 oz. of LIMU s proprietary Fucoidan-rich limu extract. Is BURN an energy drink? No, BURN is not an energy drink like BLU FROG and BLU FROG 2. However, BURN does contain 100mg of natural caffeine and plenty of energizing B vitamins in order to help cut cravings, increase focus and provide necessary nutrients. Where does the caffeine in BURN come from? The caffeine in BURN is naturally-derived from the coffee bean. At 100mg, the amount in each can is about the equivalent of an 8 oz. cup of coffee. PAGE 5 OF 6

6 (CONTINUED) Can I drink BURN every day? Absolutely! BURN makes a great snack replacement and can be consumed daily. Should I drink BURN if I have a health condition or am taking medication? If you have a medical condition, it is best to consult with your doctor before starting any regimen that involves a dietary supplement. Can I drink BURN for uses other than weight loss? Yes! BURN may be used for a pre-workout boost, workout recovery and as a convenient way to add more protein to your diet. How does BURN boost my metabolism? In addition to the metabolic boosters and antioxidants present in our proprietary weight-loss blend, a mixture of L-Theanine, green tea extract, natural caffeine, conjugated linoleic acid, and resveratrol BURN contains selenium, niacin and vitamin B6 to promote fat burning. What is the stuff I see floating in BURN? It s what makes BURN BURN! Each can of BURN contains our proprietary Fucoidan-rich limu extract and weight loss blend, as well as a number of vitamins and nutrients, which can all cause a small amount of sediment to settle in the can. We recommend shaking the product lightly before you consume. What sweeteners are used in BURN? Why did you choose them? BURN is sweetened with a combination of organic cane sugar and sucralose. After extensive research and testing, this combination of alternative sweeteners worked best for our formulation in terms of taste, texture and the overall effectiveness of the product. Sucralose is deemed appropriate for use by all consumers by such health authorities as the World Health Organization (WHO), U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA). How many cans per day can/should I drink? BURN is designed to be a snack replacement and should be used as such. Instead of reaching for an unhealthy snack a couple of times a day, reach for a BURN and can those cravings! Can I drink BURN with other LIMU products? You sure can! BURN fits seamlessly into your LIMU LEAN regimen and can be consumed in conjunction with all other LIMU products. PAGE 6 OF 6
