Welcome to yet another exposé uncovering the pseudoscientific snake oil being peddled under the guise of wellness and opportunity.
This time, we’re digging deep into Nu Xtrax — a deceptive multilevel marketing (MLM) scheme wrapped in the warm glow of family values, miracle recoveries, and quantum nonsense. At the centre of this circus? Kare Possick and her son Joshua Possick.
Miracle Claims, Mother and Son Style
Kare Possick, the self-proclaimed “visionary artist, quantum wellness educator, and metaphysical expert,” claims that she was once wheelchair-bound — until her miraculous discovery of iHeRQles, a mysterious “quantum wellness spray” that apparently reversed her age, restored her mobility, and helped her float through life like a Tai Chi Gung swami. She now credits her recovery and spiritual awakening to a blend of botanical sprays and Tibetan energy practices, all while running an MLM health empire from sunny Florida.
But Kare doesn’t scam alone. Her son Joshua Possick is a second-generation MLM prince, homeschooled on cruise ships and trained in the fine art of “compassionate compensation.” The Possicks are now pushing Nu Xtrax and its lineup of completely unverified health patches, sprays, and “high-frequency” iTech nonsense as both a health miracle and an income opportunity.
The Video That Says It All
In a video titled “The Secret to Wealth and Wellbeing…Compensation for Compassion“, Kare and Joshua outline their supposed miracle business. Here’s what we learn:
- $3,000 in 15 Days? Joshua claims that by simply sharing Nu Xtrax with 10 people, anyone can earn over $3,000 in their first two weeks.
- $470 for Referring Two People? They market it as a “just share with two friends” kind of game — classic MLM math designed to draw people in.
- “Compassion With Compensation” is the phrase they use to mask the predatory recruitment tactics typical of Ponzi-style MLM structures.
Even more disturbing is the testimonial inserted mid-video by a woman who says she’s been taking Nu Xtrax for 2.5 years and no longer needs glasses. That’s right — vision restoration via a spray sold through an MLM scheme. Welcome to the pseudoscience Olympics.
The iHeRQles Scam Formula
The flagship product, iHeRQles, is a bizarre plant-based spray and a series of stick-on “frequency” patches supposedly infused with Earth frequencies, ivermectin, fenbendazole (a dog dewormer), and something called “macrocarpo tree” to “help with negative energy.”
Kare’s websites — thehrq.com, karepossick.com, kareshighfrequencywellness.com and karespurplericeproducts.com — are filled with testimonials, pseudoscientific health claims, and metaphysical sales pitches. On thehrq.com, she promotes iHeRQles as a ‘quantum wellness spray’ that can reverse aging by over 20 years and includes unverified botanical ingredients allegedly able to regenerate cells. Karepossick.com is her personal hub where she brands herself as a ‘quantum wellness educator,’ sharing stories of playing with fairies, pioneering biofeedback, and using ancient Tibetan practices to restore her health after being wheelchair-bound. On karespurplericeproducts.com, she markets ‘Micronized Purple Rice’ with grand claims that it can reverse chronic illness, restore vision, and even regenerate organs — all without scientific validation. These websites work in tandem to build an illusion of credibility through mystical anecdotes, miracle transformations, and spiritual jargon — all aimed at selling unregulated health products through MLM recruitment.
Hidden and Misleading Compensation Tactics
The compensation model is carefully veiled using terms like “compassionate compensation” and “abundant success,” while the actual structure appears to reward recruitment far more than retail sales. Earnings examples such as ‘$3,000 in 15 days’ and ‘$470 from referring two people’ are prominently touted, but the finer details of the plan — including autoship requirements, binary qualification tiers, hidden restocking fees, and an obscure refund policy — are buried deep in fine print. This deliberate obfuscation makes it difficult for recruits to see the true costs and risks, while giving the illusion of simplicity and generosity. It’s classic bait-and-switch MLM strategy dressed in spiritual fluff.
Selling the Dream While Living It
Kare and Joshua love to flaunt the MLM lifestyle: over 300 cruises, homeschooling in kayaks, raising a family from the beach, and never having to get a “real job.” In their video, they make it crystal clear: they’ve built their lives around getting others to buy into the same fantasy — a fantasy carefully crafted with sun-soaked visuals, cruise ship anecdotes, and the promise of total lifestyle freedom. By showcasing their at-home business, global travel, and homeschooling-from-kayak adventures, they’re not just selling products — they’re selling an escape plan to financially struggling families who are desperate for hope. “Don’t you have two friends who need this?” Kare asks, as if joining their pyramid is as casual as grabbing coffee.
They talk about 26,000 people in their “group” — a euphemism for downline — as if that alone validates the legitimacy of their business. It doesn’t. That just shows how many people they’ve recruited into a scheme that disguises spiritual jargon as science and financial manipulation as compassion.
Red Flags All Over
- Unverified Health Claims: Vision repair, pain elimination, anti-aging, emotional rebalancing — none of it FDA-approved or supported by clinical trials.
- MLM Compensation Model: Rewards recruitment over product sales — classic pyramid structure.
- Spiritual Manipulation: Use of metaphysical language, ancient Tibetan secrets, and quantum buzzwords to confuse and disarm vulnerable audiences.
- Income Hype: $3K in 15 days, $470 per referral — pure bait.
- Family Legacy MLM: Kare passed the torch to Joshua, creating generational MLM promoters.
Final Thoughts
Nu Xtrax is not a path to wellness — it’s a well-polished scam. And Kare and Joshua Possick are not health educators — they are experienced MLM marketers exploiting fear, faith, and financial desperation.
This blog aims to serve as a warning to anyone being drawn in by miracle stories, high-frequency wellness claims, and income promises that sound too good to be true. Because they are.
Let’s call this what it is: Compensation for Deception.
Stay tuned. Stay skeptical. And whatever you do — don’t buy the spray.

I have not joined this company yet but I am currently using their products. The pain patches work. The cream works. I had a cold sore. I put it on my lip and it pulled the toxins out of my lip in 1 hr. I wiped it off and put the cream back on and my cold sore was gone. I have also used the spray and it has fixed my fibroids in less than a month. I don’t know yet if it’s the miracle cure they say but it does work. Instead of blasting this woman’s zoom meeing, I wish you would give proof of her being a scam and not just yelling on her zooms. Take her product and have it analyzed. I’d love to know what you find because the spray tastes like red wine to me. I know you want to keep people safe but is this really the way? You are really no more legitimate in my eyes than she is.
Thanks for your comment. I understand the appeal of testimonials — especially when you’re in pain and searching for solutions. But that’s exactly why these types of health MLMs are so dangerous.
You say “the spray fixed your fibroids in a month” and “pulled toxins out of your lip in one hour”. That’s not just personal experience — those are medical claims, and they carry serious legal and ethical implications when used to sell unregulated products. If Nu Xtrax had real clinical studies or FDA/MedSafe-approved trials backing these claims, don’t you think they’d be shouting that from the rooftops?
I don’t need to swallow a mystery spray or analyze it in a lab to spot a textbook pseudoscientific scam. I just have to follow the red flags:
No peer-reviewed studies, only testimonials
Miraculous claims that appeal to the chronically ill or desperate
MLM-style income promises that shift the focus from health to recruitment
A product that can’t be bought in stores, only through a friend or “affiliate”
A leader claiming divine intervention or spiritual healing, as Kare Possick does
You’re right — I do want to keep people safe. That’s why I interrupt the sales pitch, because these schemes don’t offer evidence — they offer emotion, coercion, and false hope. If that makes me “no more legitimate than she is” in your eyes, I’m okay with that. My goal isn’t popularity — it’s protecting people from being lied to, manipulated, and financially exploited.
When a miracle cure needs a monthly subscription and a downline, it’s not a miracle. It’s marketing.
Stay skeptical — and stay safe.

The Crypto Ponzi Scheme Avenger
I do stay skeptical. I didn’t join the company, just trying them out. I don’t get swept up with other people’s testimonies. I want to experience things for myself. I used to be a nurse so I think I know a few things and I’m almost 60. My husband is awaiting a double knee replacement so after 5 knee surgeries he knows all about pain. Their patches didn’t completely remove the pain but it made the pain bearable when he’s riding bone on bone. That’s not wishful thinking. I’ve had many cold sores in my life and have used hydrogen peroxide (best remedy yet) so I know what works and what doesn’t. I’m not saying this was a cure but there is some validity to it. I’ve been battling with female issues since 18 and I also know what works for them and what doesn’t and all I can say is since taking this product the bleeding has stopped. Yes these are “just my testimonies” and they do not carry any legal implications if I tell my story and what happened to me. I’m not saying I’ve been “cured” from anything, I’m just telling you what happened when I took the product. For me the jury is still out and I get that you want to safeguard people. As a former nurse, this is why I try stuff before exposing the general, unsuspecting public to things. I don’t want to sell anything to anyone based off of other people’s claims. I have done blood work consistently for the last year and know what I started taking and when. I’ll have proof of what the product did or did not do soon enough. I’m not into woo woo and abracadabras but I do have to say, from your side I would like to see some actual proof of something. I know it’s difficult. I know you’re frustrated. I know you’re frustrated. Rushing into a zoom meeting and making yourself look like a crazed lunatic isn’t going to stop any of these people from buying anything. At the end of the day it just makes you look crazy, unfortunately. I know you’re not turning people away because I’m in the group and see the discussions afterwards and everyone pities the crazy guy who has lost his mind and has no manners. You turn yourself into a laughing stock when you barge into a meeting. Quite the opposite effect of what your goal is I’m sure. I myself would love to know more about this company that is shrouded in mystery and if I could afford to I would have the product analyzed. I didn’t see red wine in the ingredient list and that’s exactly what it tastes like. Does it freak me out? A little? If it works do I care? Not at all. We are all just searching for something that works regardless of what it is. Stay blessed.
Hey there Nurse Nearly 60!
Appreciate the thoughtful (and theatrical!) reply. Sounds like you’ve lived a few lives already — nurse, product tester, medical detective, cold sore assassin, and now unofficial sommelier for Nu Xtrax’s house blend: *Château iHeRQles, 2025 vintage*. Tasting notes: quantum woo with a hint of placebo and a finish of Merlot mystery.
Now don’t get me wrong — if your husband is bouncing around on bone and those “magical” patches took the edge off, I’m not here to rip the bandage off his knees. Relief is relief. But let’s be honest, “makes pain bearable” is not exactly a scientific breakthrough. That’s called **Panadol**, not *miracle botanical quantum fusion spray* sold by a woman claiming she spiritually regenerated after a rice cleanse and a business deal with a lama.
You say you’ve done blood work? Great — I’d genuinely love to see what it says once you compare pre-spray and post-spray results. But let’s not pretend anecdotal experience equals verified clinical evidence. If Kare’s secret sauce is fixing fibroids, joint pain, cold sores *and* cash flow all in one, I’d expect to see it next to the insulin and not behind a paywall, wrapped in affiliate links.
Now about me being “the crazy guy who lost his mind”… let’s be real. If barging into a Zoom full of MLM recruiters pretending to be healers makes me the *lunatic*, then I’ll proudly wear the tinfoil crown. Better that than quietly watching people get love-bombed into a monthly autoship of *high-frequency wine drops*.
You’re right though — we’re all just searching for something that works. I just think that “what works” shouldn’t come with a downline, testimonials from your dog, or a compensation plan disguised as spiritual enlightenment.
Stay skeptical. Stay fabulous. And next time you feel a cold sore coming on, try some Sauvignon Blah. It pairs well with false hope.
Cheers,
Danny de Hek
