Can You Handle 100 Glasses of Wine Each Day?

Or more specifically, the 'effect' of 100 glasses of wine each day?


Resveratrol, a natural substance found in red wine, has been shown in scientific laboratory testing to impact cellular aging.


Last winter Barbara Walters had a television special about anti-aging research. The world's most famous scientific expert on anti-aging discussed with Barbara Walters the exciting new research that taps into the particular genes that protect us against aging. This very same doctor is now on our brand's Scientific Advisory Board. Since an anti-aging pharmaceutical product is still years away from the market, he found the science and quality this brand represents and joined us.



The number one natural nutrition company in the United States has spent years of scientific research on such a complex resveratrol product. The result is a cellular anti-aging tonic that combines the optimal amount of resveratrol with other unique ingredients, from a super grape, to make a cellular tonic that represents a revolutionary breakthrough in anti-aging research.


Resveratrol from this brand, in a cold-extracted optimal amount, combined with a unique profile of polyphenols from a special grape that is the only one in nature to have an extra chromosome, is unique to any product in the world. That extra chromosome is associated with impacting the aging process the same as resveratrol. However, simply having the beneficial ingredients is not sufficient. The formulation and the purity are key to delivering results that provide benefits.

Beijing Olympics Featured Athletes with Healthy Bodies


It was an enjoyable two weeks of watching Olympic athletes competing in their chosen sports. Watching Michael Phelps and the other swimmers, Shawn Johnson and Nastia Liukin with their teammates, and the Men's and Women's Basketball teams were the highlight of my viewing time.


The way these athletes perform so successfully is absolutely amazing. Of course what we see is the glory of the Olympic competition, and what they know is a tremendous amount of hard work, dedication, sacrifice and commitment to their sport and their body.


Taking care of one's body and keeping it in ultimate shape for the pounding it takes is no small matter. Olympic athletes are most probably well versed in optimal nutrition including nutrition supplements.


While we are not all going to be Olympic athletes, it is in our best interest to be active. Physical activity is good for our bodies and gives us all kinds of healthy benefits.


The number one nutrition company in the United States, and the brand used by numerous Olympic athletes, including Jessica Mendoza, USA Softball, and Eli Bremer, Modern Pentathlon, here in the 2008 summer olympics, has announced a four-product nutrition foundation system, including a Vitalized pack, that is unique to any brand in the world.


Another component of the nutrition foundation is the new cellular anti-aging tonic that was just introduced on 8-8-08. This product is a revolutionary breakthrough in anti-aging research and is a natural food supplement. It contains resveratrol as part of a patent-pending formulation that is 10 times more powerful than resveratrol alone.


Healthy bodies require good choices in nutrition and can benefit greatly with the use of quality natural nutrition supplements.


I look forward to 2012 in London (summer games are my favorite) and will focus on my own healthy body until then!

Introducing an Anti-Aging tonic that works at your cellular level


A revolutionary new product has been introduced and this brand is once again at the forefront of scientific research. Shaklee Independent Distributors represent scientists who have designed a way to create a unique blend of ingredients to fight cellular aging.


For a brief, exciting introduction.. watch this video about how to Feel 25 years younger and Live 25 years longer.


What sets this brand's products apart is the unique blends of ingredients and the science behind those formulations. With this new tonic, scientists took the formidable research on resveratrol to a whole new level.


By combining key ingredients with resveratrol, this tonic can impact all four of the mechanisms of aging that occur at the cellular level. No other company or brand has a product like this.


Let's look at how the tonic affects these mechanisms of cellular aging:


Protects and repairs cellular DNA


Positively impacts genetic regulators which help fight cellular aging


Promotes mitochondrial biogenesis, which helps increase the power production within the cells


Reduces the formation of AGE proteins that can gradually clog up your cells


While specific scientific detail may be hard for many of us to understand, that is why we have always enjoyed the benefit of having a team of highly qualified scientists behind this brand. This has resulted in more than 50 years of uniquely effective products based on solid science and research. We continue to use these products because they work!


To learn more and get the breakdown of the science behind this anti-aging tonic, visit www.yourhealthwebsite.net. There is an MD Resource box there for medical professionals as well.


The release of this new tonic is truly a revolutionary breakthrough because it harnesses the power of a unique polyphenol blend to impact the aging process. The special blend of ingredients promote cellular longevity, increase cellular energy, fight free radicals, and promote good health and well being. In addition, the ingredients support heart health, brain health, cardiovascular function, joint health and enhance immunity. That's a powerful punch!


Feel free to request additional printed material, audios, videos and opportunity to discuss the new anti-aging tonic.


I invite you to help spread the word to anyone you know who can benefit.. it really does feel great to help others feel their best. Who knew we could have the opportunity to help someone live 25 years longer and feel 25 years younger?

Ultra Marathon Man Chooses The Best Nutrition Brand


Ultra Marathon Man, Dean Karnazes,is a warrior who chooses products from the #1 Natural Nutrition company to train and compete in endurance running.


Dean's blog at runner's world tells about how he was selected to carry the Olympic torch while it passed through his hometown of San Francisco, CA.


A recent entry announced the nationwide film premiere of the 50 Marathons movie and encouraged those runners who are attending to 'run' to the show! Not sure what theater owners will think about that, but you can see more on the movie website.


Dean's impressive accomplishements have inspired many, from young kids to adults, to become better runners. They include: Winning the Atacama Crossing, a brutal 6-day race across Chile’s most inhospitable desert; winning the Badwater Ultramarathon, 135 miles through the bowels of Death Valley in July; running a hellish minus-40-degree race through the South Pole (in running shoes); running 50 marathons in 50 states in 50 consecutive days and finishing with the NYC Marathon (which he completed in 3 hours flat); swimming across the San Francisco Bay; climbing Yosemite’s Half Dome; mountain-biking for 24 hours straight; and surfing the monstrous waves off Hawaii’s coast.


Karnazes' philosophies fit in well with our #1 Natural Nutrition company's philosophies. Quality of the brand, authenticity of products, and the science and research behind the products stand out to this athlete. For an accomplished top athlete like Dean to believe in and use this clinically-proven brand as part of his regimen is a great example for younger athletes and their parents who are searching for good nutrition for them.


There is a podcast interview with Dean Karnazes where you can learn more about him.

Dementia and Omega 3's

This post will address both how omega 3 fatty acids can help with dementia and why you want to do your homework when you choose a fish oil brand.


When Alzheimer's disease hits a family member, it is quite devastating. When your brain is shutting down it destroys your life.


While we have known that omega-3 fatty acids are important for brain development in the very young, it has only been recently that studies are verifying that omega-3 fatty acids can help keep our minds sharp as we get older.


Just this morning I read an article that reported how "two studies published in the November 2007 issue of the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition show that diets high in omega-3 fatty acids such as EPA and DHA reduce the risk of developing dementia and Alzheimer's disease, as we get older".


One study involved people who ate at least 6 ounces of fish twice a week or more. Those folks had significantly higher scores in all cognitive function tests.


The other study measured blood levels of omega 3 fatty acids which is a good indicator when consumed from both diet and supplements. The group with the highest blood levels of omega-3 fatty acids produced the best results.


An important consideration is to evaluate the source of the omega 3 fatty acids that will be most beneficial to us. What is important is that long chain fatty acids like EPA and DHA, found in fish oil, provide the cognitive benefits for people, and what is found in our diets is mostly the shorter chain fatty acid ALA.


The key here is that our bodies must convert ALA to EPA and DHA, and we have to consume alot of the former to result in enough of the latter to get the benefits. This makes it very hard to get what we need from most food sources, and confirms the importance of getting the EPA and DHA that benefits our bodies so much from cold water fish or fish oil supplements.


In regard to eating fish as part of our diets, the concern with consuming enough to get the benefits we need is that we do not have toxin-free farm raised fish available. Plus many people simply do not eat fish (or enough of it) consistently each week.


There are many benefits of fish oil supplements in the areas of heart disease and conditions involving inflammation such as arthritis and even asthma. With the new research regarding Alzsheimer's disease it is even more desirable to supplement our diets with fish oil.


Now we come to brand choice, and the importance of purity and potency. The video below will share the benefits of the brand we represent here and what sets it apart from other choices:

Immune System Builder with Interferon Builds Better Health

Building a strong immune system is a challenge. Our bodies are under constant stress. Every single day we are exposed to food, people and products that can make us sick. We have allergies and asthma situations that affect our lifestyle.


Immune System Builders are targeted to build better health so that we can fight off all of the challenges we are presented with each day. Disease and illnesses, including serious ones like cancer and hepatitis, have compromised our immune systems. Thousands of man-made chemicals in our water, air and food have our bodies and our immune systems working harder than ever.



We do not know the long-term effects of the chemicals just mentioned, but we do know that they cause illness, disease and even death in the short term. That fact alone should wake us up to the realities of what can be in our future.


It is a fact that we have to live with these issues, even with ongoing regulatory efforts. It ends up, in most cases, not being enough. Our own good health both in the present and for the future falls back on each of us as individuals, and what we do on an everyday basis to build that good health.


Do you know how your immune system works? It is actually working to try and keep us healthy constantly. Sometimes that isn't enough. When substances enter our blood that are potentially harmful to us, the immune system attempst to destroy these invaders. However, if the immune system is not successful in reaching all of these invaders, we get sick.


Common illnesses such as colds, sore throats, the flu, etc. are illnesses that can be prevented. Allergies and asthma are common illnesses now. When the immune system is at its healthiest, it fights off these common illnesses much better. There are folks who have built up their immune systems who get very few colds or other illnesses.. not just per year.. but at all. On the other hand, many folks get sick 7, 10 or more times per year. Some seem to be always sick.


How do you build your immune system to an optimal level so that it will fight off viral invaders? There are a number of things that you can do such as to eat right, get enough sleep each night, exercise (yes, proven to make you healthier) and being careful to avoid direct contact with others who are sick (including washing your hands often if you are in close contact with such).


Since our lives are so busy, and our daily schedules do not allow us to eat the best each day, there is the option of supplementing your diet with vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients. Many more doctors than used to are now encouraging their patients to take vitamins because they know that our lifestyles do not include healthy eating every day.


There are safe and natural ways to supplement the immune system so that it will perform at peak levels. Natural interferon can stimulate your body's immune system at the cellular level where its work is most important. When it is used daily, natural interferon helps your body fight off the illnesses we discussed and can also give relief from allergy and asthma symptoms.


The science, research, and clinical studies need to create a powerful immune builder product that can effectively deliver the results in the form of a healthier immune system is something that many brands simply do not have. Brand to brand differences in quality, efficacy, and safety demand that one do the research and choose a brand that has the critical science behind the product.

Skin Care that is different and delivers awesome results



Women have very high expectations of skin care products. Shall I say that we are very skeptical that any particular brand will truly 'work' for us? We don't think any one brand is much different from the next.


Before using this Skin Care brand, I did not see any spectacular results from any product that I had used from any particular brand. I began to use this brand because I wanted to buy from my own store since I have a business. I was not expecting such awesome results.


Of course I knew the value of the nutrition products and the wonderful results my family and I were getting. Plus I was completely amazed (still am) at the cost savings of the green cleaning products and how well they clean without any offensive smells or harmful chemicals, toxins and fumes.


As far as the skin care products, I simply bought because it was 'my brand'. To my complete satisfaction, this skin care line has proved it is different. The way it makes your skin feel is different. The results in how your skin looks is different. And what the company scientists tell us about how these products will take care of our skin for the long term is certainly different and welcome.


Skin care system with vitamins for your skin. In only 3 minutes, twice a day, for 28 days, you will see younger-looking skin - guaranteed. Money back guaranteed.

Are you looking for RESULTS and BENEFITS?



The same nutrients that help keep you healthy on the inside also play a huge role in how you look on the outside. 50 years of scientific nutrition research have brought the right nutrients, in the right amounts, that are delivered to your skin in the right form your skin can use. This brand has the most advanced therapeutic skincare system around.

Your answer to beautiful skin is here for you to try.

Magnesium is Critical to Your Health

Not only are our diets deficient in certain vitamins and minerals that are needed for good health, our busy lifestyles that don't allow us to always eat properly create a need for extra nutrients.


Some 80% of us don't get enough magnesium in our diets. Not to worry.. there is an easy and very effective way to fix that. Below is a short video clip about Magnesium from the #1 Natural Nutrition Company in the United States.



The proprietary blend in this brand's magnesium choice includes elemental magnesium from three different sources. There is potassium for proper nerve transmission, normal muscle contraction and heart health, plus boron to aid in bone metabolism and magnesium utilization.


The benefits can include helping to retain normal blood pressure and a steady heartbeat, helping to retain normal blood sugar, and providing relief from PMS symptoms, including water retention, breast tenderness, and bloating.


The difference in this brand compared to other brands is the gel-diffusion delivery system that slowly releases nutrients over four to six hours. This delivery system is designed to prevent gastrointestinal upset commonly associated with magnesium supplements.


If you think you may be at risk for not getting enough magnesium, it is worth some time and effort investigating whether a nutrition supplement such as this very easy-to-do-daily choice (and very inexpensive) might help you maintain good health.
