Health to 80 and beyond.

Fit and healthy now and beyond 80.

The World Health Organization warns that cancer, heart disease, and other chronic conditions, which already kills more than 24 million North American people a year, will impose increasing burdens of suffering and disability on hundreds of millions of others. Look at these alarming figures.

Will you be one of them?

Health Enemy #1 - Heart Disease. - 7.2 million deaths a year.
Health Enemy #2 - Cancer. -              8.6 million people die of cancer yearly.
Health Enemy #3 - Stroke -                5.5 million people die from stroke every year.
Health Enemy #4 - Diabetes.    -        194 million people suffer from diabetes.
Health Enemy #5 - Osteoporosis. -    25 million suffer from osteoporosis.
Health Enemy #6 - Arthritis.   -          165 million people have some form of arthritis.
Health Enemy #7 - Alzheimer's.     -    29 million suffer from some form of dementia.

The underlying problem is oxidative stress created by free radicals. Oxidative stress has now been shown beyond any shadow of doubt via medical research to be the root cause of the seven deadly diseases as well as others.

Safety. Efficacy. Quality: Nutritionals You Can Trust.

Cellular Nutrition is the key to living
fit and healthy now and beyond 80.

Cellular nutrition would be defined as providing ALL of the micro-nutrients to the cell at these optimal or advanced levels that have been shown to provide a health benefit.

Although you may consider the mitocondria the heart of the cell, one must consider the cell membrane as its brain. The cell membrane decides what nutrients will be allowed into the cell and in turn also decides what waste products are to be cast out of the cell.

Since our whole body is composed of many millions of cells, with a variety of about 400 different types of cells, it stands to reason that to have a healthy body, we need healthy organs, and to have healthy organs we need to have healthy cells.

Cellular health can only be achieved if one provides all the nutrients that the cell demands for good health. These nutrients must be provided in a bio-available form, through the many complex paths to arrive at the cell wall.

In addition to providing the necessary nutrients, one must also protect the cell from the onslaught of entities that are capable of damaging or even destroying the cell. Such entities include, viruses, bacteria and free radicals.

Cellular nutrition has been shown in the medical literature to build up our body's natural immune system repair system. A strong immune system is more effective in combating the viruses and bacteria. However, the free radicals are best combated by an adequate variety and supply of anti-oxidants.

Our bodies are remarkable in that they can take tremendous abuse and neglect and still manage to function at a reasonable level. But if you want to live in optimum health, well into old age, the research shows that in today's polluted world, taking supplementation is not an option - it is a must as part of a healthy life style.

So what are these free radicals?

Even though oxygen is necessary for life itself, it is inherently dangerous for our existence. In the process of utilizing oxygen within your cells to create energy, you also create a by-product referred to as free radicals.

Free radicals are charged oxygen molecules that are missing at least one electron and desire to get an electron from the surrounding area. The free radicals are hungry for electrons and will snatch an electron from wherever it can. In the process can go on to create more volatile free radicals, causing damage to the cell wall, vessel wall, proteins, fats, and even the DNA nucleus of the cell.

In fact, the medical literature now shows us that over 70 chronic degenerative diseases are the result of this process. Degenerative diseases are the result of small oxidative changes that occur over a long period of time.

The process is called oxidative stress. The number of free radicals you produce is not steady. In other words, some days you produce more than others. Because of our stressful lifestyles, polluted environment and over-medicated society, this generation must deal with more free radicals than any previous generation that has ever walked the face of the earth.

Athletes and others who subject their bodies to tremendous physical exertion, produce many more free radicals than sedentary people. However, exercise is a mandatory part of a health lifestyle, but counteracting the extra free radicals with antioxidants is necessary to prevent free radical damage.

If you want to prevent oxidative stress, you need to have more antioxidants available along with their supporting nutrients than the number of free radicals you produce.

We are not defenceless against oxidative stress. Antioxidants are the answer.

You may be wondering if we can control oxidative stress by simply improving our diet and eating more fruits and vegetables. This is definitely a good start.

Fruits and vegetables contain antioxidants - but how many? If I held up an apple, can you tell how much vitamin C is in the apple? Does this apple have more than that apple? Are all varieties equal in antioxidants? Most unlikely and nobody could tell you the exact amount, without making sophisticated measurements.

By simply eating 7 to 9 servings of fruits and vegetables each day you can decrease the risk of degenerative diseases by two to three fold. We certainly want to supplement a good diet, not a bad diet.

However, even if you eat a great diet you can barely obtain the RDA level of all essential nutrients.

RDA levels are inadequate in today's world. To get the recommended 400 International Units (IU) of Vitamin E every day, you would have to consume several servings of foods rich in Vitamin E:

Wheat germ (Vitamin E fortified) --- 13.8 cups 3.5 pounds
Almonds, dry roasted, without salt --- 7.5 cups, 2.3 pounds
Spinach, cooked, boiled, drained, without salt --- 72.6 cups 28.8 Pounds
Safflower oil --- 3.6 cups 1.7 pounds

To eat the optimal levels of vitamin C, one would need to consume 18 oranges, or 17 kiwifruit, or 160 apples.

Does that answer the question? Of course it is totally impractical. Years ago we were not bombarded with the same level of free radicals as we are today, and we didn't need the same level of antioxidants.

When you put in this perspective, it becomes clear that the only way to obtain these levels of nutrients is to supplement our diet. This requires more than a generic multiple vitamin. The generic multiple vitamins are primarily based on RDA levels, thus providing no measurable health benefits. Significantly more potent supplements are needed each day to provide the optimal levels to provide cellular nutrition.

The Concept of Synergy in a balanced nutritional supplement.

Vitamins such as C, D and E or any other vitamins or minerals are not drugs and shouldn't be used as single magic bullets. They are natural nutrients that our bodies get from our foods. The various antioxidants and supporting nutrients work on different types of free radicals and in different parts of the body.

Vitamin E is the best antioxidant within the cell membrane. Vitamin C is most effective within the plasma. Glutathione is works most efficiently within the cell itself. Literally dozens of antioxidants are at work in various parts of the body and are effective against particular types of free radicals. They work together, synergistically to control oxidative stress.

This means that 1 plus 1 does not equal 2, but 8 or 10. Medical research separates these nutrients out and tries to study their individual effect. The amazing fact remains that the overwhelming majority of studies actually do show a health benefit with even an individual nutrient. However, since oxidative stress is the underlying problem with which we must concern ourselves, it is important to realize that all of these nutrients work together, synergistically.

Vitamin C actually replenishes vitamin E and intracellular glutathione so it can be used over and over again. Alpha lipoic acid also regenerates vitamin E and glutathione.

In addition, these antioxidants need optimal levels of the B vitamins, folic acid, vitamin B1, B2, B6, and B12, in order to perform at optimal levels. They also need the so-called antioxidant minerals such as: selenium, manganese, copper, and zinc to do their job right.

If you have all the glutathione in the world available but are depleted in selenium, which glutathione needs to work, there will be very little health benefit.

When all of the necessary nutrients are provided to the cell in a complete and balanced nutritional supplement, the combined effect is phenomenal. The potency of these nutrients in optimizing our body's natural antioxidant, immune, and repair systems when this synergy is achieved, is maximized. Oxidative stress can be controlled and our health will be protected.

Cellular nutrition is about health, not disease. "Attacking" the root cause of chronic degenerative disease is true preventive medicine. By applying these same principles, you who are in good health can decrease the risk of developing these chronic degenerative diseases.

Who uses these balanced synergy based supplements?

In order to offset the free radical onslaught due to physical exertion, athletes at all levels Olympic, professional, and amateur benefit greatly from the beneficial effect of a synergistically based supplement in addition to a healthy diet.

Here are just a few of the many sports organizations and professional athletes who use and appreciate the effectiveness of the fully balance, pharmaceutical grade supplements.

160 women in the Women's Tennis Association
Adam Pengilly, British Bob Skeleton Association
Stacey Allaster, Chairman & CEO of Sony Ericsson WTA Tour
US Speedskating Team
Joanne Thomson, executive director, Biathlon Canada
Dr. Jose Antonio Torres Mendoza, Head of Medical Services
Tuzos del Pachuca Soccer Club
Speed Skating Canada, Tom Holland, Director of High Performance, Cross Country Canada
Gordy Sheer, marketing director, USA Luge
Todd Suhn, Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association (PRCA)
Derek Parra, Olympic Gold and Silver Medal U.S. Speedskater
Werner Berger, Expert Mountain Climber
Jose Antonio Rivera, Professional Boxer

The Olympic athletes using these nutritional supplements, won a total of 22 medals, including gold, silver and bronze. That would have placed them 4th overall if they were a country.

Of course there are thousands of every day people using these supplements as well. Why not - if they are carefully chosen by Olympic athletes, that must tell us something.

How about celebrities? There are many but here are just a few you may know.

Angie Harmon, Actress
Ashlan Gorse, E! Entertainment News
Ali Landry, Actress
Phoebe Price, Model

Are all nutritional supplements created equal?

In a recent study by Lyle MacWilliam in his book, Comparative Guide to Nutritional Supplements, only four out of 1500 suppliers of supplements reached a score of 90 out of a 100. Most brands scored lower than 30 and some as low as 2 or 3 out 100.
