Herbalife was born from the personal tragedy of Mark Hughes. When Mark was eighteen years old his mother died of an accidental overdose of prescription diet pills.

Since that day, Mark has dedicated his life to helping people lose weight and improve their health safely and effectively. In February 1980, Mark Hughes launched Herbalife International!

Sales the first month were $23,000. Then due to the perseverance of Mark Hughes, first year sales skyrocketed to $2 MILLION! Herbalife is now a multi-national nutrition company with sales over $1.7 BILLION a year! Mark has set the sails of Herbalife to achieve $5 BILLION a year within the next few years, and with Mark's outstanding record of achievements, it is a goal that can be reached!

Herbalife is bringing the world together through good nutrition. Mark's dream is to take Herbalife products to every corner of the planet and provide people with the opportunity his mother did not have.
