During the podcast, Dr. Sydnee McElroy and her husband Justin discuss the company Plexus. While they found some positives of the products, most of their assessment was that they aren’t that special. Somewhat boiling it down to mostly caffeine and magnesium being the main ingredients that would promote the results the Browns are experiencing. Furthermore, the note that the company started as “Breast Chek” and has evolved into the weight loss and health management company it is currently. Additionally, Justin reviews the business aspects of the company and attempts to dissect the levels within.

  • Some Sister Wives fans were happy to see Sawbones review: “I love Sawbones ♥️.”
  • “An unexpected but very welcome crossover!”
  • “I love Justin and Sydnee! Such a great podcast.”

Other Fans Question Their Motives

Although several of the Sister Wives family members work in MLM businesses, that isn’t their only skillset. Seemingly, they believe in the products they are selling. Likewise, they choose to promote them in their circles, including the TLC show.

  • One fan says, “I don’t think it is okay, but some people say ‘well they had no skills, so at least they had this to fall back on.’ Are they saying that no SAHM with a high school education (and C & J went to public schools not church schools) has ever been able to support themselves after divorce? Christine was the only one with a single minor child.”
