Keith Dungait - rugby club player, Northumberland, UK
The millennium arrived and like any 23 year old I celebrated (to the excess) and woke up with what I thought was a huge hangover. This didn’t go away for about 2 months, I’d actually caught a bad case of flu and it knocked me off my feet. From that I got a secondary chest infection, which completely wiped me out. I would be off work for a month, go back for a week then off again, I was on the sick for 5 – 6 months, I simply had no energy and my muscles ached constantly. I play rugby; I couldn’t actually play for 1 year I was that tired. The doctor said I had ‘post viral fatigue syndrome’ – a form of ME; it would be in my system for about 3 years. Every morning when I woke up my chest was “full”. He prescribed me 2 different types of antibiotics, which had no affect what so ever. I saw a specialist and he diagnosed me as having the symptoms of asthma but it wasn’t! All I had to do was rest and battle it out.
I started using
NiteWorks; within 10 days of taking it I had noticed a massive difference every morning. The one major thing I had noticed was that by now I had started gentle rugby training again and for the first ½ hour or so I couldn’t breathe very well until fully warmed up. Within 2 weeks of taking the product I could go out and join in the warm up straight away without wheezing.
The next major achievement came in January 2001. I had started playing rugby again in December 2000 and managed a couple of games for my local club. In my younger days I had been involved in representative squads and because my name was in the system I got invited to join a representative squad called the Scottish Exiles. I explained my illness and that I was not fit, but they told me if they saw enough skill they would get me fit. To cut a long story short, out of the 21 players in the team that were undefeated and won the championship 19 were semi professional or professional players (2 of them are now full Scottish Internationals). I was one of the 2 amateurs in the squad. These players had a whole season of rugby fitness, training and matches behind them, I had about 5 weeks!!! The last game was the decider for the championship, I played the whole game and we won. I totally and utterly put the energy and stamina I had to get through the toughest game I had ever played in my career to Herbalife
rugby nutrition products I used. I was using
Herbalifeline,
Formula 2,
Herbalife’s Schizandra Plus (litres and litres of) and NRG, along of course with my trusty Schizandra. At the end of the game I was shattered, but an hour later I was at the post match function as well as any body in the room. By the way 3 of that squad got international caps for Scotland the next season.
This really brought home to me the power of the Herbalife range of products. I now take all the products in the range, have noticed a major difference in not only my all round energy levels
and performance, but my recovery rates after playing and training are incredible. Last season I actually got drug tested after a national division 3 game, I was using every product in the Herbalife range and the test was clear.

"Looking after
my nutrition in rugby gives me a huge
advantage."
He says "I use
the Herbalife nutrition products before,
during and after practise sessions and games
for fuelling, refuelling, hydration and
recovery. I can definitely feel a big
difference in sustained energy levels during a
game as well as the speed of my recovery
afterwards as long as I use the products
correctly. On the odd occasion I slip up and
forget, I feel a big difference. I have been
using Herbalife nutrition for 11 years so its
now second nature to me."
