Das System Ringana: Undercover beim „Fresh Date“ 🫢| FYI – unsere Recherche, Dein Vorteil NDR

Ringana is known for expensive natural cosmetics and dietary supplements that promise freshness and naturalness. But what's behind these bold advertising claims? We embarked on an investigative journey to uncover the truth. From a personal experiment with beauty products to attending a private sales event, the so-called "Fresh Date," and conversations with experts and critics – we examine Ringana's marketing strategies, multi-level marketing (MLM) system, and high prices. What do the products actually do? And how reputable is the business model for partners? Chapter overview: 00:00 Intro – Ringana: What is it? 01:33 Start of research: How expensive are the products? 02:06 Ringana BTY Drink 02:43 Start of personal experiment with BTY Drink 03:45 Ingredients and study of BTY Drink 05:15 Price comparison of Ringana and drugstore dietary supplements 06:00 What is a Fresh Date? 06:33 Undercover Visit Fresh Date Part 1 08:55 Claim: Conventional fruits and vegetables no longer contain enough nutrients 09:33 Prof. Marc Birringer: Who should supplement? 10:49 Back to the undercover Fresh Date Part 2 11:55 Dietary supplements are not medication 12:09 Dr. Britta Schautz on risks and interactions 14:30 The Ringana business model 15:45 How can you earn money with Ringana? 16:25 Dr. Claudia Groß on the risks of MLM 17:45 Up to €11,000 commission? 19:39 Social environment and MLM 20:51 Sales pressure from other partners? 21:49 Results of the BTY Drink self-experiment 23:01 Conclusion -------------- Unfortunately, a small inaccuracy crept into the video. Professor Marc Birringer doesn't work at the University of Fulda, but at Fulda University of Applied Sciences. A small but important distinction.
