Originally Cambridge was one world wide company. It was developed and researched in the UK, then brought here to the US for marketing by the Feather family. After several years, the company split in to the USA and the UK Cambridge. The Feathers sold the US company to Dean Distributors, the company that still owns it now. Dr Howard and a few others involved with him took over the UK which covers most other countries with a few exceptions. Because they were a much bigger company, they felt compelled to go off in to a somewhat different program with different products and structure. I converse with UK people quite often who are wanting to get our product. They much prefer it and it is a lot less expensive evidently. We can't sell out of the country unless it is a US military base with an APO address. I do have some UK customers that have friends or family here order and then ship to them. That's expensive so they must REALLY like our stuff! lol

Personally, I prefer the simplicity of our products and program. It is the original formula that was the result of 8 years of clinical research and testing. Also, after a lifetime of dieting with Weight Watchers etc, I really don't want to have to go attend meetings or get weighed or any of that. We did that back in the early days before internet when diet meetings were popular, but most people are not in to that anymore, just like message boards! lol
