Antioxidants a necessity for travel

It’s the time of year when North Americans are planning for summer vacation. Whenever and wherever you travel, AIM Proancynol® 2000 can fit nicely into your travel plans.

With the greatest concentration of antioxidants of any available product, Proancynol 2000 boosts your immune system with a powerhouse of protection from free radicals.

One of the negative aspects of travel is being exposed to dietary, climatic, and environmental changes that can increase your risk of illness. Getting sick is the last thing you want to happen on a vacation, so protect yourself with Proancynol 2000. If you are going to be spending time in airplanes—an ideal environment to pick up bacteria or a virus—take extra capsules of Proancynol, which can even help to lessen the effect of jet lag.

You look forward to getting away, so don’t let illness be a part of your vacation memories. For health insurance, take along Proancynol 2000 whenever you travel.

And don’t forget to bring AIM BarleyLife® and BarleyLife® Xtra Sample Packs for daily nutrition and AIM FloraFood® to maintain a healthy digestive system.

“The first time I started to understand the power of Proancynol 2000 was at a Texas BarleyLife Convention, where I heard about a travel experience from Janet Pauly, AIM Chairman’s Club Director. She had taken three capsules every three hours to avoid jet lag on a trip to South Africa. However, she got even more than she had bargained for. During the flight, Janet got rid of a persistent, hacking cough that she hadn’t been able to shake for weeks. She commented that plenty of people get sick on overseas flights, but she hadn’t heard of anyone getting better!

“Immediately after coming back from Texas, I was speaking to one of my Directors, Aud Sund. She had just been to Norway and had come home with a terrible cough. I passed on what I had just learned, and her cough disappeared within a couple of days. Since then people have had the same kind of results every time they upped their intake of Proancynol 2000. I use Janet’s formula regularly on overseas flights or when traveling different time zones.”

Healthy Changes

 

Betty Wyatt, AIM Director, Longview, Texas

I was diagnosed with breast cancer in 1997. I want you to know that “cancer” is not a death sentence unless you deem it so. I had always seen it as such…but it is NOT! The first thing my husband Larry and I did was to go to the greatest physician known to man, the Lord Jesus Himself, who made it clear that we should go the nutrition route instead of the doctor-advised breast removal, chemotherapy, and radiation.

In discussing our decision with the doctor, Larry said, “You are an intelligent person, so let e ask you a question, and please give me an ntelligent answer. My wife’s immune system is own, and that is why she got cancer in the first place. My question to you is, why do you want to destroy what’s left of her immune system with chemotherapy and radiation?”

The doctor replied with this profound answer, “Well, that’s just the way we do it Mr. Wyatt.”When Larry told her that we decided to go the nutrition route and rebuild my immune system, the doctor responded, “Well, she’ll die Mr. Wyatt.” My husband snapped back and said, “No she won’t. She won’t die until the Lord calls her home”.

The Lord led us to The AIM Companies™, and I started taking eight tablespoons of AIM’s barley grass powder per day. I did this for over three years. Our goal was to strengthen my immune system and kill the cancer.

Overnight, we cut out all meat, sugar, caffeine,white flour, fried foods, carbonated drinks, and all processed food. We started eating as much live (ras) food as possible because even cooked (vegetables lose nutrition. In the first couple of months, we started feeling much better with fewer aches and pains as well as improved regularity. Both of us lost about thirty pounds.

When people ask me how I could make such immediate changes, I tell them that it’s just like when I married Larry by saying “I do”; I made a lifetime commitment. These healthy changes are a lifestyle, not a diet … it’s a way of life. When you get that into your head and heart, it will be easy.

I continue to take AIM Barleylife® andmany other products, such as AIM Herbal Fiberblend®, AIM Cellsparc 360®, and AIM Proancynol® 2000. I don’t take any medication.  I’m now seventy-four years old, and my blood tests remain normal—no cancer.

Disasters! Are you Prepared?

One look at the news these days tells you that anything can happen, especially when it comes to disasters—natural or technological. It is extremely important to be prepared beforehand so that you have the essentials needed to survive—enough food and water to last through and beyond any catastrophic event.

Stocking up on AIM whole-food concentrates and natural health products can help you, your family, and friends prepare for a disaster. Most AIM products have a two-year expiration date, making it simple to have a six-month supply of nutrition on hand.

For example, having a supply of the Daily Essentials—greens, essential fatty acids (EFAs), and fiber—ensures that an easily assimilated source of nourishment is available to maintain good health throughout a catastrophe.

The Daily Essentials come in packs of four different combinations that include a choice of greens in an AIM BarleyLife® or AIM BarleyLife ® Xtra powder, EFA’s in AIMega®. and fiber in an an AIM Herbal Fiberblend® or AIM FibreBalance®(CAN) powder. It’s your choice.

Imagine for a moment what a six-month supply of Daily Essentials would do for maintaining the health of those affected by the tsunami and resulting nuclear reactor disaster in Japan.

Members like AIM Director marth Price consider the Daily Essentials as “must have” products to keep well-stocked in her home to be prepared for emergency situations, such as hurricanes, freezing weather, or radiation in the atmosphere. Martha recognizes that during disastrous times, food and water sources are compromised, so having an available source of greens, EFAs, and fiber on hand allows her to be nutritionally prepared to handle an emergency situation.

A supply of other AIM products, such as the AIM Garden Trio® or AIm ProPeas™. provide additional  sources of nutrition during the challenging times following a disaster. AIM Proancynol® 2000 boosts a compromised immune system with a powerful variety of antioxidants that combat free radical damage. And if you have specific health issues, stocking up on your Plus Ones, whether AIM GlucoChrom™ for balancing bood sugar, AIM CellSparc 360® for supporting the heart, Or AIM Compousre® for reducing stress, puts your mind at ease knowing that AIM wholefood concentrates and natural health products are by your side during the worst of times.

We Wouldn’t be without the AIM products

 

Wayne and Sandy Combs, Chairman’s Club Directors, DeBary, Florida

 

The AIM products are what Wayne and I consider our lifeline. Both of us had allowed our bodies to get into serious trouble in our early years through poor eating choices and stresses in life. Y et, by giving our bodies AIM BarleyLife®, AIM Just Carrots®, AIM Redibeets®, AIMega®, and AIM proancynol® 2000, AIM Cellsparc 360®, and AIM Herbal Fiberblend® as our base of products, we, we are both now living in excellent health, energy, and excitement for life.

This sounds like a lot of products to some, but we know and can feel how the BarleyLife is our shot in the arm for energy, life, and rebuilding new healthy cells. Just Carrots positively affects our skin, eyes, bones, and livers. RediBeets definitely makes our livers and gall bladders feel young. AIMega is a must for our skin, lungs, flexibility, and overall good health. Proancynol 2000 is an immune-system guard during flu season and a rescue for my joints that were once swollen and painful—no joint flare-ups since using Proancynol 2000. CellSparc 360 is a must for both of us to keep our hearts beating normally—no racing or flutters. Wayne claims that it helps him deal with blood sugar challenges and boosts his energy. I discovered that he is sneaking four capsules a day—he says that he notices a huge energy boost. We do not know how people live without Herbal Fiberblend.

We use other AIM products, too. We love them and can feel the benefits. We spend a lot of money each month on these products for our personal use, but we are worth it. At ages sixty-three and seventyone, we have packed up and moved our household belongings by ourselves. I could not have done all of the heavy lifting and carrying boxes and furniture up and down stairs without the nutritional benefit of the AIM products. Wayne still enjoys renovating homes and building decks. We don’t feel old. We don’t get sick.

 Thank you, AIM, for giving us the nutrition that we need to live full, healthy, and rich lives.

Seniors’ Month: Build a NEW Body

Aging is unavoidable.
How fast people age varies from individual to individual. But there are cellular-changing steps you can take to reverse some of the effects of aging and slow the process down. In fact, you can actually

create an entirely new body within a year depending on how active you are, what you eat, and which supplements you take. You may now be thinking … What a load of nonsense! But read
on. Science, not nonsense, is behind this re-creation of your new, younger self.

Rebuilding Cell by Cell

 

Dr. Henry S. Lodge, associate clinical professor of medicine at Columbia University, gerontologist, and co-author of Younger Next Year, states that your body is made up of trillions of cells that have various lifespans ranging from hours to three months. It’s a fact that your cells replicate all the time. They do their vital roles for your body and eventually decelerate—die. But this also means that new cells are always being born.
Specializing in the study of aging, Dr. Lodge acknowledges that these new cells will be strong or weak depending on how you live your life. And this

also means that you can alter what some believe to be inevitable genetic factors.

Suppose you have had a lifetime of suspicious eating habits, infrequent (or non-existent) exercise, and factors (your or life’s choice) that have negatively impacted your health. The cells that replicate as you get older are cells with built-in damage from poor nutrition, inactivity, and stress—aging factors.
Now imagine that you take a long, hard look at how you have lived your life externally and internally—cell-wise—and decide, for at least one year, you are going to EEP:

•           Exercise regularly

•           Eliminate life’s negative factors, such as stress, wherever possible

•           Put only healthy food and beverages and nutrient-rich AIM products into your mouth

By doing so, you allow your body to replicate new and improved cells so that by the end of the year,

you have created an entirely new body that will serve you well for a healthy lifetime.

Start with the Daily Essentials:

Greens, Essential Fatty Acids, and Fiber

 

AIM BarleyLife® and AIM LeafGreens™

 

Feeding your cells the abundant nutrients—including vitamins and minerals—in either BarleyLife or LeafGreens contributes to healthy cells for building the new you, a healthy body for combating inflammation, and a strong immune system and a slightly alkaline body pH for defending against disease. Both of AIM’s greens provide the required trace minerals and enzymes for optimal health. And with the presence of chlorophyll, BarleyLife and LeafGreens provide nature’s perfect cleanser and healer for your cells.

AIMega®

Both of AIM’s greens provide the required trace minerals and enzymes for optimal health. And with the presence of chlorophyll, BarleyLife and LeafGreens provide nature’s perfect cleanser and healer for your cells.  

AIMega®

 

Build your new body by making AIMega® a daily part of your diet. Your body has a nutritional need for
omega-3 and -6 essential fatty acids (EFAs) because it cannot synthesize these vital nutrients. The numerous benefits of EFAs include inflammation reduction, hormonal balance, and cardiovascular support. The reason for their wealth of benefits is that EFAs are crucial for the growth, function, and maintenance of every one of your cells—where the building begins.

 

If you imagine that your cells are microscopic versions of you, then healthy cells require EFAs on a daily basis if only to ensure that their membranes are in a perfect state of flexibility and permeability to allow nutrients to enter and waste to exit—just as your body requires nutrients in and waste
out to function optimally.

AIM Herbal Fiberblend®, AIM FibreBalance®, and AIM fit ’n fiber®

Fiber is an essential part of building your new body and keeping it healthy. Seventy percent of your immune system is in the colon, so a healthy digestive system is one of the greatest contributors to disease prevention for the new you. Supplementing daily with Herbal Fiberblend, FibreBalance (CAN), or fit ’n fiber (US) helps to cleanse your digestive tract, reduce your cholesterol, and balance your blood sugar levels—only a few of the many benefits of a high-fiber intake. Use one, both, or alternate these AIM products to supplement your fiber intake—a dietary essential at any age.

 

Continue to Build with…

AIM Proancynol® 2000

Proancynol 2000 contains seven active ingredients that provide a wide variety of antioxidants that work synergistically on various parts of your body. As a 

researcher for the NIH’s National Institute on Aging for nearly twenty years, Dr. Richard Cutler stated that the amount of antioxidants in your body is directly proportional to how long you will live. And since free radical damage can result in more than eighty age-related diseases, the number of antioxidants you take daily can affect how well you will live your lifetime. Antioxidant support for maintaining healthy cells does not get any better than taking Proancynol 2000.

AIM CellSparc 360®

At the center of living cells is the spark of energy provided by coenzyme Q10—an antioxidant produced by your body in reduced amounts as you age, making supplementation a necessity. If you are giving your body as much CoQ10 as you were producing in your twenties, then you are replicating energy-rich cells that, in particular, support a strong, healthy heart. 

AIM ProPeas™

Like essential fatty acids, protein is a vital ingredient for building healthy cell membranes.  Made from building blocks called amino acids, protein is also the most important nutrient for building and maintaining strong muscles. As a result of smaller appetites, those in their senior years tend to eat and digest less protein than is necessary to support muscle size and strength. ProPeas provides a convenient and healthy way to counteract this deficiency with a slowly digested vegetable protein made from field peas that can
be consumed in a delicious drink.

 

Within one year, you can build a new body cell by cell. So for the rest of your years, continue to EEP, and let AIM be a part of the new you!

“With potential emergency situations, such as hurricanes, freezing weather, or radiation in the atmosphere, I consider the AIM Daily Essentials “must have” products to keep well-stocked in my home. When food and water sources are 

compromised, BarleyLife is balanced nutrition, the fiber and herbs in Herbal Fiberblend provide for intestinal health, and AIMega offers a balanced blend of essential fatty acids.  All three boost the immune system and protect and heal the body. With the Daily Essentials, I know I am nutritionally prepared
to handle an emergency.”

We are both in our sixties, but most people can’t believe how healthy we look. I exercise every morning for at least thirty minutes. Since we live on a farm, Ron is physically active every day. We grow most of our own food and raise antibiotic-free goats and drug-free chickens. I mostly cook from scratch. To supplement our healthy diet, we have been using AIM products, such as AIMega, BarleyLife, Herbal Fiberblend, CellSparc 360, and Proancynol 2000, for seventeen years.

Detox Your Mood:Feeling better in the New Year

By Tracey Karele – AIM Nutritionist

 

The festive season is a time of joy and merriment; it’s a time to put aside your daily routines and to celebrate with your loved ones. More often than not, rich food and alcohol form part of this celebration, and overindulgence during the holiday season is the norm. While a day or two of indiscretion may be OK, a few weeks worth of unhealthy foods, parties, wining and dining can leave you feeling low and sluggish. Get healthy and happy again by exercising, eating right and supplementing well to begin the New Year on a high note.

 

According to the Mayo Clinic, some preliminary research suggests that having a poor diet can make you more vulnerable to depression. Researchers in Britain looked at depression and diet in over 3000 middle-aged office workers over the course of five years. They found that people who ate a junk food diet — one that was high in processed meat, chocolates, sweet desserts, fried food, refined cereals and high-fat dairy products — were more likely to report symptoms of depression.

A study by BBC health investigated the impact of diet on the mental health of 200 people in Britain. Researchers reported that changing the diet improved mental health significantly. 26% said they had seen large improvements in mood swings, 26% noticed improvement in panic attacks and anxiety, and 24% noted an improvement in depression. The participants said that cutting down on food ‘stressors’ and increasing the amount of ‘supporters’ that they ate helped to improve their mood. ‘Stressors’ were foods such as sugar, caffeine, alcohol and chocolate (all festive favourites!) ‘Supporters’ included water, vegetables, fruit, oil-rich fish, nuts, beans, non-fat dairy products, egg whites and whole grains.

 

Along with wreaking havoc on your blood glucose levels, the refined sugar found in chocolates, sweets and other treats has been implicated in aggressive behaviour, depression, fatigue, anxiety and many other conditions. Excessive consumption of refined sugar is also undesirable because sugar uses B-vitamins for its breakdown, and the B vitamins are very extremely important in regulating the mood.  

What to eat

 

There are certain things that you can eat that can actually help to boost your mood. The B-vitamins, for example, are important in this case, as a B-vitamin deficiency can lead to exhaustion, irritability and depression, amongst other things. Over the past several years, evidence has mounted that B-vitamins—B12 and folate in particular—may ward off depression and other mental problems. Sources of folate include asparagus, spinach, beef liver and lentils, while foods of an animal origin (i.e. meat and dairy) are sources of vitamin B12.

It is widely believed that a deficiency in the neurotransmitter serotonin plays a role in depression. Tryptophan is an amino acid precursor to serotonin, and is especially rich in foods such as fish, turkey, chicken, cheese, tofu, oats and eggs. However, eating a meal that is high in tryptophan won’t raise your serotonin levels unless you eat a meal that is relatively high in carbohydrates too, especially unrefined carbohydrates.

The role of carbohydrates in uplifting the mood must also be emphasized. Glucose (from carbohydrates) is the brain’s primary source of fuel; so a reduced carbohydrate intake will reduce the brain’s source of energy. Carbohydrate-containing foods like breads, cereals and pasta can produce a temporary increase in brain serotonin, and a subsequent calming or anxiety-reducing effect.

 

However, it’s not just what you eat but also how you eat that will affect your mood. Eating small, regular meals will help to balance your blood sugar levels, and there is no question that individuals who battle to keep their blood sugar levels stable also experience fluctuations in mood.

 

Get moving

 

If you ask someone why they exercise, they will often tell you “Because it makes me feel good.” As it turns out, it actually does! Exercise is slowly being linked through research with improved psychological functioning. Exercise actually seems to help people cope with the negative effects of stress. Some psychologists actually recommend exercise as therapy for their patients who are having mental or emotional difficulties. The exact cause of exercise’s influence on an improved mental outlook is not completely understood. It may be as simple as a feeling of satisfaction and self-worth that is created by getting and staying in shape.

Guidelines for physical activity from the American College of Sports Medicine include doing moderately intense cardio for 30 minutes a day, 5 days a week OR doing vigorously intense cardio for 20 minutes a day, 3 days a week AND doing 8 to 10 strength-training exercises, with 8 to 12 repetitions of each exercise twice a week.

 

AIM products for detoxing your mood

 

  • GinkgoSense contains fish oil and therefore DHA, which is the predominant essential fatty acid (EFA) in your brain. It helps to maintain neurological health, and also helps to improve brain function, memory, concentration and mental clarity. It also contains ginkgo biloba, which improves blood flow to extremities. Ginkgo has been studied for many years and shows very positive results for improving concentration and memory, listlessness, depressive moods, anxiety and many others conditions.

 

  • Peak Endurance provides 50% of your daily requirement for those all important B-vitamins – Vit B1, B2, B3, B5, B6 and B12.

 

  • GlucoChrom contains chromium, which has been shown to help maintain normal blood sugar levels, and this is significant as fluctuations in blood glucose levels are associated with changes in mood.

 

  • AIMega is a source of EFA’s, which constitute a major part of lipids (fats) in the brains and nerves, and are involved in the transfer of messages between nerves. If EFA’s are in short supply, then these messages are never transferred properly.  Also, EFA’s are important in the metabolic pathway that controls serotonin metabolism. Clinical trials have indicated improvements in patients who are on antidepressant drugs where supplementation with EFA’s minimized symptoms. 

 

  • Reassure SP contains 100% of your daily requirements for zinc. Low serum zinc levels have been linked to major depression.

 

  • Composure consists of a special combination of 8 herbs that exert a calming effect on the nervous system. These herbs also work together to supply the body with some of the nutrients that can be depleted in times of stress.

 

  • Proancynol 2000: According to a small study from a Texas University, selenium supplementation of 200 micrograms a day for 7 weeks improved mild and moderate depression in 16 elderly participants. More studies are needed, but it can’t hurt to make sure that you’re eating foods that help you to meet the Dietary Reference Intake for selenium (55 micrograms a day).

Miracles do happen …the Nick King story

 “I forgot to tell him not to fall.”

That thought woke Lois King early on the morning of July 12, 1995. Her son Nick had already left for work.

At the construction site, Nick was walking in the rafters when he fell twenty-five feet onto a concrete floor. He hit the floor feet first with such impact that he bounced back into the air, crashed through wooden sawhorses, and slammed the back of his head against the concrete.

He was rushed to the hospital. Miraculously, Nick did not break any bones or injure his spinal cord in the fall, but doctors feared brain trauma. Within twenty-four hours, Nick crashed and was rushed into emergency neurosurgery. Three days after surgery, Nick had yet to wake up.

“The surgeon said that there was no sign of life. Nick was totally brain dead,” Lois said. “He gave us papers to donate his organs.” Lois refused to give up hope. She and her family sat at Nick’s bedside for six weeks while he remained in a coma. Around the hospital, Nick earned the nickname “the boy who wouldn’t die.”

Six weeks after he was given up for dead, Nick awoke from his coma. His vision was gone, and he was without even the most basic of motor skills. But his memory was still in tact. It was a miracle for him to even be alive.

Once at home, Nick had chronic diarrhea. Lois consulted Chairman’s Club Director Teresa Schumacher after coming across AIM Herbal Fiberblend®. Nick immediately started taking Herbal Fiberblend.

“Three weeks and two days later, the diarrhea stopped,” Nick said.

The next hurdle was his vision. Nick could see peripherally out of his right eye and chose to attend a school in Denver, Colorado, to learn how to live with impaired vision. Lois sent him AIM Proancynol® 2000. The results were immediate.

“The first time I got light perception in my left eye is after taking the Proancynol,” Nick said.

And the good results continued.

“In January 2000, the eye doctor said that there’s nothing he could do. Well, since then, my sight improved. Now, I can see stuff out of my left eye, and my right eye just keeps getting better.”

In addition to vision help, Nick also regained feeling and strength in his left hand, something he had been without since the accident.

Fifteen years after the accident, Nick is living independently at his house in Olathe, Kansas, working for a local restaurant, and serving as the vice chair of the Persons with Disabilities Advisory Board.

“He’s a miracle,” Lois said.

Weight loss has its benefits

Within the last year, Nick has lost seventy-two pounds thanks to exercise, diet, and AIM.

“With the AIM products and the weight loss, I was able to get off all five medicines I was taking,” Nick said. His medicines included prescriptions for blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar.”

From chronic illness to renewed health

 AIM Director Janet Breitkreutz in Sherwood Park, Alberta, sent
us this wonderful testimonial about using AIM products.

Healing Wounds

My mother-in-law, Ella Breitkreutz, developed a second open wound on her lower leg. Her doctor prescribed an antibiotic cream to reduce the infection. Ella’s leg was swollen, and she was in a lot of pain. She used the entire tube of cream, but her leg was still very painful; the wound was not healing. She decided to make a paste using water and AIM BarleyLife®. Within one day the pain was gone. She kept applying the “green paste”, and now the wound has a scab on it. It is healing, and so we are all thrilled. BarleyLife, our faithful friend, comes through yet again. Thanks again AIM for better health.

Shared by Katelyn Andrews, Alberta

Ever since I can remember, I have been sick as a result of infections. By the time I was three years old, I was already hospitalized twice with life-threatening illnesses.

Going to school was a challenge as I seemed to miss more school than I attended. I spent more days lying in bed with a fever than enjoying life in school or being with family and friends. I even did home schooling for a while because I was always sick with severe colds, the flu, or sinusitis.

My doctor put me on high dosages of antibiotics for months at a time in the hopes that the viruses in my system would be killed off. Nothing helped, and I began to accept that this was going to be my way of life.

The last battery of tests and x-rays revealed that my sinus cavity was so congested that my doctor was ready to admit me to the hospital if my fever went any higher. Sinus surgery was tentatively scheduled.

My brother’s piano teacher, AIM Director Janet Breitkreutz, heard how sick I was, so she shared AIM products with us and invited my mom and me to an AIM meeting, where the guest speaker was Rose Bird, chartered herbalist and general manager of AIM Canada. After watching some videos and listening to testimonials, I was eager to start using the products.

Since September 2010, I have been faithfully taking AIM BarleyLife®, AIMega®, AIM Herbal Fiberblend®, and AIM Proancynol® 2000. I have noticed miraculous results.

After only a few days, I had more energy and began to feel healthier. Within a couple of weeks, my sinuses completely cleared. I have never been able to breathe with clear sinuses before. I am no longer on any antibiotics and do not require the nasal surgery I was dreading.

Since taking AIM products, I feel so much happier than I have ever been. I can spend time with the people I care about and enjoy their company without the nagging illnesses that previously overshadowed my life.

Thanks, AIM, for giving me a happy, healthy future.

Women’s Health Feature – Do you look your age?

Beauty comes from within. The same is true about health and age. By the time illness or aging shows in your physical appearance, the causes have been inside you for some time. Common sense tells you to do whatever possible to protect your body so that it reflects the finest you from the inside out. AIM has the perfect pair of products to help you achieve a healthy, youthful reflection – AIMega® and AIM Proancynol® 2000.

The Beauty in AIMega

Omega-3 and -6 essential fatty acids (EFAs) are healthy fats that nourish and heal. Your body does not make EFAs, so they must come from your diet on a daily basis. AIMega provides a balanced 2:1 ratio of omega-3 and -6 EFAs from organic seed oils.

Why are essential fatty acids so important? EFAs are one of the main structural components of cell membranes and vital for cell repair, growth, and activity. The overall health of your body is dependent upon their presence in every cell, tissue, gland, and organ.

Skin is your body’s largest organ. Dry, wrinkled skin is just one of many indications that you may not be getting enough EFAs. Supplementing with AIMega is like applying an internal cosmetic that helps to make your skin smooth and supple.

But there is so much more! EFAs help to restore your energy, digest your food, transport nutrients, burn fat, balance hormones, and prevent chronic disease. For your optimal health and well-being, take two to three capsules of AIMega twice daily with meals.

The Power in Proancynol 2000

The antioxidants in Proancynol 2000 protect your body from the damaging effects of free radicals. Although free radicals are a normal part of your body’s metabolism, too many of them are the major cause of damage to your cell membranes, genetic material, and body tissue.

According to Dr. Richard Passwater, Ph.D., free radicals can result in more than 80 age-related diseases, including cancer, heart attack, and stroke. As a researcher of antioxidant nutrients since 1959, Dr. Passwater made the connection between antioxidants and a way of increasing the human lifespan.

Antioxidants are micronutrients that deactivate free radicals, thereby stopping their damage and reducing the effects of aging. In fact, Dr. Richard Cutler, a researcher at National Institutes of Health’s National lnstitute on Aging from 1976-1995, stated: “The amount of antioxidants in your body is directly proportional to how long you will live.”

Seven ingredients in Proancynol 2000 provide a powerhouse of antioxidants that stop free radical damage. Different body systems require different antioxidants, so the greater the variety, the greater the benefits. Effective both individually and together, Proancynol’s team of antioxidants helps to protect against diseases, keep your immune system strong, and slow down the aging process.

The Perfect Pair

“Aging first and foremost takes place internally,” stated Jack Masquelier, Ph.D, who pioneered the extraction of powerful antioxidants from grape seeds – just one of the seven ingredients in Proancynol 2000.

The anti-aging antioxidants in Proancynol 2000 and the nourishing EFAs in AIMega provide a perfect pair of products that help to maintain your health and keep you looking younger than your years.
