                                      CHADBOURNE & PARKE LLP



Dear Sirs.

                                  We have acted as counsel as to the laws of
Brazil to Herbalife International do Brasil Ltda. (the "COMPANY") in connection
with the offer to exchange (the "EXCHANGE OFFER") the 11-3/4% Series B Senior
Subordinated Notes due 2010 (the "SERIES B NOTES") issued by Herbalife
International, Inc.(the "ISSUER") , for an equal principal amount of the
Issuer's outstanding 11-3/4% Series A Senior Subordinated Notes due 2010 (the
"SERIES A NOTES"), and in connection with the preparation of the prospectus (the
"PROSPECTUS") contained in the registration statement on Form S-4 (the
"REGISTRATION STATEMENT (NO. 333-101188)") filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission by the Issuer and the Company for the purpose of registering
the Series B Notes and, inter alia, the guarantee by the Company of the Issuer's
obligations under the Series B Notes (the "GUARANTEE") under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended.

                                  In connection with this opinion, we have
examined a copy of the Supplemental Indenture, of the Guarantee, and of the
Joinder Agreements to the Supplemental Indenture, to the Purchase Agreement and
to the Registration Rights Agreement (the "DOCUMENTS"), which were executed on
July 31, 2002.
                                  We have also examined originals or copies,
certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such corporate
records, agreements, documents and other instruments, and such comparable
documents of representatives of the Company as we have deemed relevant and
necessary as a basis for the opinions hereinafter set forth.

                                  In such examinations, we have assumed the
genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of documents submitted to us and
the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as
certified,

conformed, photostatic copies or facsimiles. In addition, we have assumed,
without investigation, that each of the Documents is valid and binding on, and
enforceable against, all parties thereto other than the Company.

                                  In rendering our opinion, we have relied as to
matters of fact, to the extent we deem necessary and proper, on representations
and warranties and other statements as to certain factual matters contained in
the Documents, and other certificates of officers and representatives of the
Company. We have made no independent investigation as to whether the
representations and warranties and other statements in the Documents,
certificates referred to herein are accurate or complete.

                                  Based on the foregoing, having regard for such
legal considerations as we deem relevant, and subject to the qualifications and
limitations contained herein, it is our opinion that:


            (1) The COMPANY is duly organized, validly existing and in good
standing under the laws of Brazil, has all requisite power and authority to own
and operate its properties, to carry on its business as now conducted and as
proposed to be conducted, and is qualified to do business and is in good
standing in every jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or operation of
properties or the conduct of its business requires such qualification or
license.

            (2) The COMPANY has all the corporate power and authority to
execute, deliver and perform all of its obligations under each of the Documents,
and to carry out the transactions contemplated thereby.

            (3) The execution, delivery and performance by the COMPANY of each
of the Documents and the consummation by the COMPANY of the transactions
contemplated thereby have been duly authorized by all requisite corporate
action. Each of the Documents has been duly executed and delivered by the
COMPANY.

            (4) No permit, license, registration, authorization, plan,
directive, consent, order or approval of any Governmental Authority that has not
been obtained or performed and that is not in full force and effect is required
to authorize, or is required in connection with, the execution or delivery of
any of the Documents, or the enforceability of such Documents against the
COMPANY.

            (5) Each of the DOCUMENTS constitutes a valid and binding obligation
of the COMPANY enforceable against the COMPANY in accordance with their terms.

            (6) As far as the obligations of the COMPANY in each of the
DOCUMENTS do not include any pledge, the choice of law of the State of New York,
United States of America as the governing law of the DOCUMENTS will be upheld as
a valid choice of law by the courts of Brazil. If the DOCUMENTS are sought to be
enforced in Brazil in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, United
States of America, the courts of competent jurisdiction in Brazil would
recognize the choice of law and apply the laws of the State of New York, United
States of America, in the terms of the Article 9 of the Decree-Law n. 4.657 as
of September 4th, 1942, ("Lei de Introducao ao Codigo Civil").

            (7) Our opinions set forth above are subject to the following
qualifications and limitations:

                        (a) We do not express any opinion with respect to the
            law of any jurisdiction other than the laws of Brazil. Without
            limiting the generality of the foregoing, we express no opinion
            concerning the laws of any other jurisdiction in which any party
            related to the Documents may be located or in which enforcement of
            the Documents may be sought which limits the amount of interest that
            may be legally charged or collected.

                                  We hereby consent to the filing of this
opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement No. 333-101188.

                                  Very truly yours,


                                  CORVO ADVOGADOS
