Guys, I'm Emailing you because I'm bloody scared about something.
I created my Facebook group for fun, and to use it to market my businesses to people. What I'm doing now totally kills my ability to do that, but I don't care. This is important.
I'm a qualified pharmacist. I've been researching the swine flu vaccine that our government has bought for us (using our money, by the way) and its DANGEROUS AS. Its easy a hundred times more dangerous than the swine flu itself, Imo.
Something that freaked me out is that several swine flu vaccine manufacturers have asked governments to give them an exemption from lawsuits, in case the vaccine caused harm in people. If you made a vaccine that you knew worked, then why would you need a legal exemption in case it hurt people? Massive warning sign. They don't believe its safe.
The swine flu itself has killed about 2/3000 people total. The regular flu kills 40 000 plus per year – so why are we freaking out about swine flu, and not normal flu? Does that make sense? No.
If the regular flu kills 40 000 plus per year, and the swine flu only killed 2/3 000 – then why are governments buying it in advance, giving it to us for free, and giving drug manufacturers immunity to legal cases against them? Does that make sense? No.
The swine flu vaccine contains 2 horribly dangerous compounds – one is called thimerosol. It is made 50% of mercury. It binds to receptors in your brain, and basically causes brain damage. Is it smart to be injected with thimerosol, and get brain damage, dropping 10 IQ points and going dumb, in order to avoid getting a flu that kills 95% less people than regular flu? No.
The other horrible ingredient is called squalene. Squalene accidentally tricks your immune system into killing your own cells, which creates autoimmune diseases like asthma, multiple scelerosis, diabetes, and a bunch of diseases that we don't have a name for yet (because squalene hasnt been used for that long, and we have little data on its effects) – is is smart to inject yourself with that stuff, in order to avoid a relatively mild flu, like the swine flu? No.
If you're a pregnant mother about to take Panvax, ask yourself this – why would you take Panvax, when it contains Neomycin and Polymyxin B Sulfate – both of which exhibit positive risk to unborn children – so as to avoid what? A mild flu, that kills 95% fewer people than the regular flu?
Look, I'm a funny guy. Yeah, I make good Facebook groups. People join them by the thousands, and laugh. But I'm also a qualified pharmacist. I scored in the top 0.1% of my state in school. I'm expert at critical analysis of drugs and their effects on humans. And let me be blunt – if someone came up to me with a syringe full of swine flu vaccine, or came near my family with one – I would take the needle off them and poke them with it myself – followed by several very hard punches. This stuff is poison. Don't take it. Don't let your friends take it. Don't let your family take it. If some idiot in a lab coat asks you if you want it, ask them about thimerosol, squalene, and why the company making it wants legal exemption from being sued, and watch their face go into “omg I'm being asked serious questions that I don't have the answer to” mode.
Anyway. I hope you're all well. Chat to you on Facebook sometime :)
Sincerely,

THE SWINE FLU HOAX
THE SWINE FLU HOAX: The alarm has been sounded. Politicians, pharmaceutical executives and media conglomerates would have us believe that a 1918-style pandemic is a real threat. The 1918 pandemic, however, evolved out of conditions unique to World War I, for four specific reasons that are not true of today…
AUTISM RATES DOUBLE IN CHILDREN AS VACCINES POISON AN ENTIRE GENERATION: According to a U.S. government survey just published, rates of autism in children have doubled since 2003. Today, an estimated 1 in 91 children are being diagnosed with autism, making this the highest rate in any population in the...
DO NOT LET YOUR CHILD GET FLU VACCINE -- 9 REASONS WHY: This year it is more important that you protect your children and loved ones from the flu vaccines than influenza itself. VERY IMPORTANT: Probably the single most important question to ask if you are considering a vaccine for yourself or family.
WHY MILLIONS DON’T NEED THE SWINE FLU VACCINE: According to the CDC, by June of 2009, one million Americans had already been exposed to H1N1 swine flu. Yet you don't see two million Americans dying from swine flu.
10 THINGS I'D RATHER DO THAN GET A SWINE FLU VACCINE SHOT (SATIRE): Mike Adams admits the thought of being injected with a chemical cocktail made by a company and approved by the FDA with virtually no safety testing is somewhat tempting….

CERVICAL CANCER VACCINE CONTINUES KILLING
CERVICAL CANCER VACCINE CONTINUES KILLING: Natalie Morton is dead. One week ago, she was an energetic and lively 14-year-old student who was just following doctor's orders. Like all her other classmates, she believed she was dutifully protecting her health by submitting to a cervical cancer jab.
TEEN GIRL SUFFERS PERMANENT BRAIN DAMAGE AFTER CERVICAL CANCER VACCINE: As the cervical cancer vaccine continues to maim or kill even more teenage girls across the UK, 18-year-old Stacey Jones is the latest victim to suffer severe harm.
TOP RESEARCHER WHO WORKED ON CERVICAL CANCER VACCINE WARNS ABOUT ITS DANGERS: One of the key researchers involved in the clinical trials for both Gardasil and Cevarix cervical cancer vaccines has gone public with warnings about their safety and effectiveness.

HEALTH WARNING
Anybody who takes Vitamin C (and most people should) would do well to avoid the following Soft drinks Sunkist, Fanta, Diet Coke, Sprite, & Pepsi Max.
These drinks contain Sodium Benzoate 211 on the label. A chemical reaction between Vitamin C and Sodium Benzoate creates Benzine a highly Carcinogenic chemical (story by Channel 9).
Benzine has the ability to severely damage the DNA in the Mitochondria to the point that it totally inactivates it, knocks it out altogether. The Mitochondria consumes Oxygen to give you energy, and if you damage it, then the cell starts to malfunction very seriously, often fatally, a whole array of Diseases has been tied to the damage to the DNA, including Parkinson's Disease and quite a lot of Neuro-Degenerative Diseases..
This is a follow-up of all the TV station's story on Mentos and Diet Coke. Don't mix these two either, they cause a chemical reaction (explosion) in the stomach, it's not only Mentos but also any Mint products. Mint Life Savers, Tic Tac's, Cool Mint's, etc, the Mint is not the culprit here but the Aspartame in the Diet Drinks, 951 on the label, also avoid 950 Acelsultame F (same thing). Aspartame poisoning has been scientifically linked to 92 Symptoms of Disease ... Still going to drink your Diet Drinks???
Most European countries have forbidden the Importing and use in their Country of Aspartame including all makes of Saccharin, example Equal, Nutra-Sweet, Spoonful & Diet Drinks, including 6,000 consumer Good's and Beverages, sold on the Supermarket shelves. This ban affect's all use of this product in any type of consumable infringement and will carry penalties that go from 9.000 euros to 90,000 Euros.
Mexico is also considering banning all 6,000 products of Aspartame on its Supermarket shelves. In Mexico Aspartame is known as Rumsfeld's Disease, after George Bush's mate Donald Rumsfeld. The Nutra-Sweet company and Searle are owned by Monsanto who appointed Rumsfeld as their General Manager, so they could use his clout with Parliament to get this Deadly Poison passed by the FDA and boost their sales of Aspartame.
Avoid all Toothpastes made in China , especially Colgate's they contain Ethylene Glycol.. This is an Anti-Freezing agent, Highly Toxic and even Fatal -- it destroys the Liver, Kidney, Lung, Blood Cells, Heart and the Nervous System. It is also in some Mouth Washes, Make-up, Aftershave, Baby Powder and Wipes, Shampoo, and Deodorants.
Avoid Smarties; they contain almost every Toxic artificial colour on the market. The worst are 102, 104, and the worst of all 110 Carcinogenic, 124 undesirable, 127 Carcinogenic 128 Extreme Caution, 129,131, and 133 are also carcinogenic. To top it off Smarties are not even made of Chocolate (neither are Tim Tam's). Synthetic Chocolate has non-nutritional food value whatsoever.
Read your labels -- it may one day save your life.

Allergies
The Weekly Health Tip
Allergies
by Phillip Day
Profile
Allergies are a result of the histamine inflammatory system, so our first suspicions move towards dehydration and lack of adequate whole salt. Dr F Batmanghelidj writes:
“You can naturally prevent asthma and allergy by drinking more water. When you understand the physiology of the human body and the role of histamine in its water regulation and drought management, you realize that chronic dehydration in a vast majority of people is the primary cause of allergies and asthma. Increased water intake—on a forced, regular basis—should be adopted as a preventive measure as well as the treatment of choice.
In those who have had attacks of asthma or allergic reactions to different pollens foods, more strict attention to daily water intake should become a pre-emptive measure. These people will also have other indicators of dehydration they need to recognize and treat accordingly before a crisis attack of asthma endangers their lives and exposes them to possible, premature death. Don’t forget, the chemical pathways dealing with dehydration have no ‘brain’; they rush forward like a cascade. They are actually called ‘chemical cascades’. These dehydration-induced chemical cascades kill many thousands of asthmatics a year. They are easily ‘turned off’ by water and salt, two strong, natural antihistamines.”1
Common food intolerances, such as those for wheat (gluten), milk (casein), chocolate, eggs, oranges and other salicylates may disrupt hormone levels, resulting in mental symptoms that can range from depression to schizophrenia and the classic ‘straitjacket’ problems.
Symptoms
Many of these disorders occurring later in life, described as mental illnesses, may begin early in childhood and show up as eczema, infantile colic, rashes, fits and temper tantrums, excessive mucus formations, frequent rapid colds, hyperactivity, speech difficulties, anxiety, seasonal allergies and coeliac disease (malabsorption of food). All these initially should be regarded as dehydration issues. In Health Wars, I examine the problems brought on by infants force-fed cow’s milk during their first two years’ of life. This is a vulnerable period for a small child, whose immune system usually has not fully developed until the third year. Assaulting the child with multiple vaccinations, foreign and often hostile proteins, such as those found in wheat and cow’s milk, can lead to all sorts of problems such as autism and type 1 diabetes, especially when the child has not been adequately breast-fed to ensure the full spectrum of immune factors are taken to begin with.
Once the immune system is formed, there may be imperfections in how the system performs when assaulted with particles the body identifies as toxins. Damage and scarring to the intestinal wall by gluten/gliaden in wheat, barley, rye and oats, for instance, destroys the finger-like villi which absorb nutrients, leading to coeliac disease, where the food can pass unprocessed through the small intestine. Leaky gut syndrome, where undigested food particles permeate the damaged intestinal wall and enter the bloodstream, is typified by systemic poisoning and a chronic-fatigue reaction of lethargy, listlessness and depression.
Experimental double-blind studies and control trials conclusively demonstrate that wheat, milk, cane sugar, eggs (often the whites), tobacco and food additives are the chief culprits. In one control study, 96 patients diagnosed as suffering from alcohol dependence, major depressive disorders and schizophrenia were compared with 62 control subjects selected from adult hospital staff members for possible food/chemical intolerances. Those suffering as ‘depressives’ were found to be the highest suffering from allergies: 80% were found to be allergic to barley and 100% were allergic to egg white. Over 50% of the alcoholics were found to be allergic to egg white, milk, rye and barley. Of the schizophrenic group, 80% were found to be allergic to both milk and eggs. Only 9% of the control group were found to suffer from any allergies.2 Dr Batmanghelidj avers that the body’s predisposition to react in these ways may be due to the specific ways it behaves during drought-management.
Schizophrenics, routinely treated with drugs, were randomly assigned milk- and gluten-free diets while on the locked ward. They were discharged nearly twice as rapidly as control patients assigned a high-cereal diet. Wheat gluten secretly added to the cereal-free diet undid this effect, showing that wheat gluten was a player in the behaviour of these schizophrenic patients.3
Elimination/challenge testing
Removing problem foods and then reintroducing them one by one under controlled conditions to see if the problems reoccur is known as elimination/challenge testing. This should always be done under clinical supervision, especially when side-effects may be quite severe, such as fits, asthma, anaphylactic shock, severe depression and violent, psychotic episodes.
The antihistamine effect
In The Mind Game, I examine the effects of histadelia, or excess histamine, in the body, and its association to mental illness. It is interesting to note that many psychiatric medications are very similar in their chemical profiles to antihistamines, and indeed are designed to suppress brain histamine receptors. Tricyclic and antidepressant drugs, such as imipramine (Tofranil) and amitriptyline, are in this group. Other drugs, such as chlorpromazine and promazine, are designed to inhibit histamine production and promazine is used to treat allergies. This seems to confirm the role of histamine excess in related emotional disorders and therefore Batmanghelidj, Pfeiffer, Holford and Hoffer encourage physicians to adapt their patients’ diets before resorting to potentially debilitating medication. Carl Pfeiffer has also devoted much of his professional research time to examining B6 (pyridoxine), zinc and manganese deficiencies, and their role in restoring his patients to health:
“Several vitamins are noted for their effectiveness in reducing allergic symptoms. Vitamins C and B6 are probably the most effective. Dr William Philpott has used both of these vitamins intravenously to turn off allergic symptoms provoked by testing for allergies. The patients on adequate vitamin C will have fewer allergic symptoms. B6 should be given to the point of nightly dream recall and the minerals calcium and potassium should be plentiful in the diet. Zinc and manganese are also needed by the allergic patient. Elimination of the offending foods may be needed for several months. For multiple food allergies, in which this approach would severely limit the diet, a four-day rotation diet in which each food is eaten only once every four days should be tried. If this approach is unsuccessful, intradermal allergy testing to determine the degree of allergy and the neutralising dose of each allergen is recommended.” 4
Most patients suffering from food allergies also have pyroluria, where excessive pyrrole chemicals are found in the urine, binding vitamin B6 and zinc (see Pyroluria). Since coeliac damage to the intestinal wall may result in malabsorption of nutrients into the body, while often allowing undigested food proteins into the blood creating allergy, healing of the intestinal system is vital to a restoration of the patient to full nutritional homeostasis.
A reminder on water and salt
Intake should be half the patient’s bodyweight in ounces. i.e. a 140 lb woman should drink 70 oz of water a day (8-10 glasses). Salt used should be organic, unrefined Himalayan, Celtic or sea salt; half a teaspoon per 10 glasses of water per day. Those having trouble sleeping may put a small pinch of salt on their tongue and allow to melt after turning in. This is also a good idea after drinking two glasses of water upon rising. Sensors on the tongue detect salt intake and help suspend the body’s production of histamine.

HEART ATTACK
Heart Attacks And Drinking Warm Water
This is a very good article. Not only about the warm water after your meal, but about Heart Attacks . The Chinese and Japanese drink hot tea with their meals, not cold water, maybe it is time we adopt their drinking habit while eating.
For those who like to drink cold water, this article is applicable to you. It is nice to have a cup of cold drink after a meal. However, the cold water will solidify the oily stuff that you have just consumed. It will slow down the digestion. Once this 'sludge' reacts with the acid, it will break down and be absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. It will line the intestine. Very soon, this will turn into fats and lead to cancer. It is best to drink hot soup or warm water after a meal.
Common Symptoms Of Heart Attack...
A serious note about heart attacks - You should know that not every heart attack symptom is going to be the left arm hurting . Be aware of intense pain in the jaw line .
You may never have the first chest pain during the course of a heart attack. Nausea and intense sweating are also common symptoms. 60% of people who have a heart attack while they are asleep do not wake up. Pain in the jaw can wake you from a sound sleep. Let's be careful and be aware. The more we know, the better chance we could survive.

Mineral Deficiencies in ADHD
From "Sunday Times", July 1997 London, UK
Zinc Diet Reduces Violence in Youths
Steve Connor, Science Correspondent
"Scientists have discovered a link between violent behaviour and a chemical imbalance in the body that can be treated by diet. It raises the possibility of treating antisocial individuals with special nutrition.
Studies carried out on 135 males aged between 3 and 20 with a history of violence have found that such individuals are much more likely to have high levels of copper and low levels of zinc compared with non-violent people. Scientists believe such minerals influence behaviour because the body uses them to make chemical transmitters in the brain."
The article goes on to refer to the work of Dr. William Walsh of the Health Research Institute in Naperville, Illinois.
Further, "preliminary experiments have shown that altering the diet of violent males can improve their behaviour".
"It usually takes two to three months to overcome the copper-zinc imbalance."
"Copper and zinc tend to be concentrated in the hippocampus of the brain and the hippocampus is known to be associated with stress control".
"Zinc deficiencies in juvenile offenders were also found in an unpublished study in Britain, said Dr. Neil Ward, a senior lecturer in analytical chemistry at Surrey University.
"We think that it is a direct result of exposure to heavy metal toxins such as cadmium and lead which prevent the absorption of zinc. The people we studied had a poor diet with excessive amounts of sugar and alcohol, which is also known to reduce zinc absorption," Ward said."
"Stephen Schoenthaler, a leading authority at California State Institute on the role of diet in criminal behaviour, said Walsh's conclusions were plausible. "He is more right than wrong...""

Test Offers Cure for Violent Children
by Victoria Macdonald, Health Correspondent
(With reference to Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder information)
CHILDREN who are aggressive, violent and disruptive at home and school are showing marked improvements after taking a simple £11 laboratory test that can show they are suffering from a chemical imbalance.
The urine test detects kryptopyrrole, a by-product of pyroluria, which means the body is depleted of zinc and vitamin B6. These are needed to control mood and behaviour.
By identifying the condition, children are able to be given supplements to correct the metabolic imbalance.
The Hyperactive Children's Support Group, based in Chichester, is pressing for wider use of the test because it fears disruptive children are being written off as "incurably bad". Sally Bunday, founder of the group, said: "Some of these children are on their last chance at school or have been expelled, or have already been in trouble with the police. All have shown some improvement and in a few cases it has been a remarkable improvement."
The test is carried out at the Bio Lab Medical Unit in London.
Based on studies carried out in Victoria, Canada, by Dr Abraham Hoffer, a psychiatrist and specialist in schizophrenia, it is then decided what level of supplements to give the child.
Tommy Giovannelli, now aged 10, had been expelled from one school by six and was being threatened with a second expulsion at eight. His father, Nick, said Tommy was unable to concentrate, would throw tantrums for no apparent reason and would smash objects in the classroom.
It was by chance that Mr. Giovannelli heard about the hyperactive children's group and from them learned of the test. Tommy was found to have zinc levels 55 per cent below normal.
Within weeks of giving him supplements and removing all additives from his diet, his behaviour had changed beyond recognition.
At Baverstock School in Birmingham, six children have now been given the test. Barbara Parkes, a specialist in teaching dyslexics, said: "I am convinced that the behaviour of large numbers of young offenders is due to poor diet."
Andrew, a pupil a Baverstock School, could not concentrate, would beat people up and would talk manically throughout lessons. When the test result came back it showed he had a very high imbalance.
Now Andrew has shown a dramatic improvement. "He even asked for extra work for the school holidays," Mrs Parkes said."
Minerals and Metals vs ADHD: Our Comments
A few years ago I ran hair sample tests on 10 ADD kids to see what I'd find.
According to the norms of the lab that did the testing, none of the kids were within the normal ranges. However, none of the kids were alike. Some were high in heavy metals, some were not. Some were low in certain minerals, some were not. I could not discern patterns.
However, there was one thing that did stick out.
Every child whose parents smoked was very high in Cadmium (a toxic heavy metal) levels. Is this a cause for alarm? Yes!
Heavy metals such as mercury, lead, cadmium, and nickel are very toxic to the human body (toxic to any form of life) and can pass the blood- brain barrier and be terrible neuro-toxins.
No child, especially not ADHD children, should be exposed to these toxic metals.
And yet without knowing, most parents have these toxic metals actually placed into the mouths of our children in the form of dental work: mercury-amalgam fillings are 50% mercury, and also contain copper and nickel; and braces for our children are often made of these toxic heavy metals as well.
These are bad for all of us.
And as time goes on I am becoming more and convinced that nutritional supplements can play a significant role in the treatment of ADHD and other behavior disorders.
No, I don't think that they are the ONLY or the BEST treatment options. I believe that many elements need to be looked at in treatment, including Moral Training, Parenting Classes, Family Counseling, Medications, EEG Biofeedback Training, as well as Nutritional Interventions.
We have seen ATTEND and EXTRESS make significant contributions to the lives of children with ADHD. They are products that you should strongly consider using.
We also strongly encourage the use of Essential Fatty Acid supplements, provided that they are mercury free. These can include certain fish oils, primrose oil, or flax seed oils.

Neways Healthy Homes
How healthy is our home? Branding doesn't always qualify us for excellence. Take the following survey on www.neways.com.au/survey,and you will be shocked.If you need more info,contact Dare to Dream a Lifestyle through our website: www.freedomforlife.com.au/guests (guest code:0906)
AROMATHERAPY
Aromatherapy involves the use of essential oils, often through massage. Individual blends are prepared by the practitioner, in a base of cold pressed oil and then applied to the patient's skin through a remedial or relaxing massage. It is important that they are not used directly on the skin, as burning or rashes could occur.
As a holistic treatment, aromatherapy can have a profound effect on physical and psychological well-being. There exists the belief that scent, as the most enduring of our senses, has the power to transform our emotions, and heal our bodies.
Essential Oils
The Essential Oils used in aromatherapy are extracted from plants and herbs to treat conditions ranging from infections and skin disorders to immune deficiencies and stress. When aromas are detected in the nasal cavity, impressions associated with previous experiences and emotions are created. Combining this with the fact that the parts of the brain that control heart rate, blood pressure, breathing, memory, stress levels and hormone balance are also related to the nasal cavity, it is evident that the use of essential oils contributes to and achieves many physiological or psychological effects.
Some common oils and their uses include:
Eucalyptus: for congestion/colds
Frankincense: for calming emotions and nightmares
Geranium:for menopausal problems & PMS Lemongrass; for sore or injured muscles
Lavender: for relaxation
Peppermint: for quick energy
Rose: a uterine tonic and aids in contractions during childbirth
Sandalwood: for relaxation, digestive troubles (esp. due to tension), dry skin
Tea Tree: a strong disinfectant, anti-bacterial, and anti-fungal
Benefits of Aromatherapy
The benefits of essential oils can be obtained through inhalation or by external application. Aromatherapy is easy to practice, readily available, and effective as a therapy, but should be used with care.

Himalayan Crystal Salt
Wholistic Achievement is excited to announce the availability of
Himalayan Crystal Salt - as recommended by Phillip Day.
Himalayan Crystal Salt is now available for ordering - it is the genuine article from Pakistan
and is pure and in it's natural form.
Himalayan Crystal Salt IS NOT TABLE SALT - which is not healthy for the body and causes
problems.
"Fish from the ocean will die quickly if placed in a solution of normal refined table salt and water. The sodium chloride, in its form as it comes from the refinery, is actually poisonous to them. Bottom line is that yes it can be harmful to consume too much refined table salt, but you cannot consume too much natural unrefined salt."
Himalayan Crystal Salt allows our cells to absorb elements in an ional form. The Crystal
Salt is formed under considerable pressure and the elements are transformed into a
specific size, making them ional, which enables them to pass through our cell wall. This
is important because our cells can only absorb what is available organically or ionally.
For example, we cannot absorb the minerals from mineral water as they’re not refined
enough to penetrate our cell walls. And what doesn’t get into our cells cannot be
metabolized.
Therefore, the best calcium and supplementation is useless if it cannot be available to
the body’s cells. What we need is the organic, or ional state of an element, this being
Himalayan Crystal Salt in perfect natural symbiosis with all its associated elements, in
order for our body’s cells to make any use of it.
It also:
• Regulates water content throughout your body
• Balances excess acidity
• Helps transport nutrients into the cells
• Generates hydroelectric energy in cells and absorption of food in the intestine
• Helps regulate your sleep – a natural hypnotic
The key is that we are drinking water daily however without a pinch of Himalayan Crystal salt is cannot be utilized adequately in our bodies and we are often dehydrated and don't know it.
Just a little in your water daily is all you need to make a big difference. This is made by
placing nuggets into pure water and making a solution called Sole (sol-ay) These
instructions will be sent when you purchase NUGGETS of Himalayan Crystal Salt.

Noni Juice
I have just had my first personal experience with Neways' products and I would like to report on what happened to me as a user of Noni Juice.
I had a small glass of Noni before breakfast in the morning and drove to work. I am employed as a proofreader with a printing house and start rather early.
I have to state that despite my age of 51, I am in excellent physical and mental health and always in a good mood, thinking positive etc.
When I entered the stairwell I heard somebody say behind me, "How can anybody be in such a good mood, so early in the morning." He had caught me humming and singing without me realising what I had been doing!
Similar remarks during daytime by other colleagues!
Will continue to report further!

Noni (Morinda Citrifolia)
Posted: 03 Apr 2009 02:08 PM PDT
Noni - What is it?
Noni, also known as Indian mulberry, is a plant that is native to Polynesia. The tree grows to about ten feet and produces a potato-sized fruit the starts out green and later turns yellow.
Polynesian healers traditionally used the noni fruit to treat just about anything and everything. Hence it's full name, noni morinda citrifolia means "miracle fruit".
What are the benefits?
The efficacy of noni has been disputed by some. However, recent studies have revealed the tremendous efficacious potential that noni morinda citrifolia has. For instance, research has shown that noni juice may be particularly beneficial to the immune system due to its high content of polysaccharides.
Other benefits are shown in the following extracts:
Preventing arteriosclerosis - "The oxidative modification of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) plays an important role in the genesis of arteriosclerosis. Kamiya, K et al, extracted solutions from the Noni fruit and tested them for their inhibitory activity on copper-induced LDL oxidation. Two of the solutions, a MeOH extract and EtOAc-soluble phase, showed 88 and 96% inhibition respectively."
(Kamiya K, Tanaka Y, Endang H, Umar M, Satake T - Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences and High Technology Research Center, Kobe Gakuin University, Nishi-ku, Kobe 651-2180, Japan.)
Antitumour potential of a polysaccharide-rich substance from the fruit juice of Morinda citrifolia (Noni) - "An immunomodulatory polysaccharide-rich substance (Noni-ppt) from the fruit juice of Morinda citrifolia has been found to possess both prophylactic and therapeutic potentials against the immunomodulator sensitive Sarcoma 180 tumour system.
The antitumour activity of Noni-ppt produced a cure rate of 25%-45% in allogeneic mice and its activity was completely abolished by the concomitant administration of specific inhibitors of macrophages (2-chloroadenosine), T cells (cyclosporine) or natural killer (NK) cells (anti-asialo GM1 antibody).
Noni-ppt showed synergistic or additive beneficial effects when combined with a broad spectrum of chemotherapeutic drugs, including cisplatin, adriamycin, mitomycin-C, bleomycin, etoposide, 5- fl uorouracil, vincristine or camptothecin. It was not beneficial when combined with paclitaxel, cytosine arabinoside, or immunosuppressive anticancer drugs such as cyclophosphamide, methotrexate or 6-thioguanine.
Noni-ppt also demonstrated beneficial effects when combined with the Th1 cytokine, interferon gamma, but its activity was abolished when combined with Th2 cytokines, interleukin-4 or interleukin-10, thereby suggesting that Noni-ppt induces a Th1 dominant immune status in vivo.
The combination of Noni-ppt with imexon, a synthetic immunomodulator, also demonstrated beneficial effects, but not when combined with the MVE-2 copolymer, a high molecular weight immunomodulator. It was also not effective when combined with interleukin-2 or interleukin-12."

The super-fruit blend with life-enhancing power*
Science and nature have come together to yield a nutritional supplement that surpasses all industry standards.
Two years of extensive research and product development have now produced new and improved Authentic Hawaiian Noni, a product that rivals the healing properties of fresh-picked noni. The Juice Millions of People Drink to Achieve Optimal Health and Wellness is an ugly, smelly fruit and it taste awful as well.
Yet it is the first thing millions of people reach for in the morning. So what is it about Noni that has helped it take the world by storm?
Neways has harnessed the great health benefits of Noni and formulated it into a juice that actually tastes good! We challenge you to try our competitor's product and compare. We are confident you will choose Neways Authentic Hawaiian Noni Juice!
Plus, this liquid supplement blends three other incredible fruits into its life-enhancing formula: blueberry, raspberry, and momordica. Providing a combination of health benefits, this fusion of noni and other fruits delivers powerful health enrichment to your body.
• Blueberry— When it comes to antioxidants, blueberries are nature’s powerhouses. They provide high concentrations of several flavonoids, some of the most potent antioxidants that you can get. One particular antioxidant in blueberries now appears to be the most powerful of all the flavonoids.*
• Raspberry— While blueberries provide a higher concentration of flavonoids than raspberries,6 raspberries provide a wider variety, plus the highest concentration of ellagic acid, a powerful substance that provides another level of support for your cellular health.*
• Momordica— This Asian fruit is a natural, non-caloric sweetener. Extracts of momordica can be as much as 300 times sweeter than sucrose.*
Important Features:
Formulated with Hawaiian noni whole fruit grown in Hawaii's mineral-rich volcanic soil
Harvested from pristine and relatively new lava flows, higher in minerals and much lower in toxic metals than other soils
Combines carefully selected Hawaiian noni and momordica fruits to work synergistically with blueberry and raspberry extracts
Produced using top-quality ingredients and an exclusive formula that is so superior that the new noni formula is patent-pending
Provides superior taste, consistency, and quality
Contains higher levels of polysaccharides (dietary fiber) for greater health potential *
Product Improvements:
Contains all-natural ingredients with no added sugars or preservatives
Utilizes a unique extraction method that micronizes the noni, delivering fine particles that are evenly distributed throughout the bottle
Formulated with a smoother consistency for a stronger, thicker formula; particles don't settle out, which makes more of the fruit and its healing properties available to your body cells
Processed using a relatively low-temperature method that protects active nutrients often destroyed by competitors high-temperature processing
Delivers improved flavor and a fruity aroma
Health Benefits:
Supports immune system health*
Supports antioxidant capacity
Suppresses exercise-induced oxidative stress*
Supports cardiovascular health*
Supports cellular health*
Supports circulatory system health*

Noni-ppt showed synergistic or additive beneficial effects when combined with a broad spectrum of chemotherapeutic drugs, including cisplatin, adriamycin, mitomycin-C, bleomycin, etoposide, 5- fl uorouracil, vincristine or camptothecin. It was not beneficial when combined with paclitaxel, cytosine arabinoside, or immunosuppressive anticancer drugs such as cyclophosphamide, methotrexate or 6-thioguanine.
Noni-ppt also demonstrated beneficial effects when combined with the Th1 cytokine, interferon gamma, but its activity was abolished when combined with Th2 cytokines, interleukin-4 or interleukin-10, thereby suggesting that Noni-ppt induces a Th1 dominant immune status in vivo.
The combination of Noni-ppt with imexon, a synthetic immunomodulator, also demonstrated beneficial effects, but not when combined with the MVE-2 copolymer, a high molecular weight immunomodulator. It was also not effective when combined with interleukin-2 or interleukin-12."

DURIAN-KING OF FRUITS
Durian contains high levels of tryptophan.
This is an amino acid and a tryptamine (similar to serotonin, melatonin, and DMT). Researchers have discovered that tryptophan helps both anxious, depressed, repressed people, as well as insomniacs.
Tryptophan works by raising serotonin levels in the brain.
When serotonin levels increase, a euphoric feeling is felt as a free passage is cleared for nerve impulses to travel.
Durian is such a strong blood cleaner that eating a few durian a day can change the odor of urine (urine is filtered out of blood).
What gives durian its strongest beautifying characteristics is its high concentration of raw oleic fats (and vitamin E), sulphur compounds, and soft proteins. Durian actually contains one of the highest concentrations of protein of any fruit, making it an excellent muscle builder."
Organic sulfur compounds among other properties in durian are very cleansing for the body.
Durian provides "more concentrated healthful energy in food form than any other product the world affords" - to keep the body vigorous and tireless; the mind alert with faculties undimmed; the spirit youthful.

Apple cider Vinegar
Apple Cider Vinegar
Apple cider vinegar is an old remedy that has been credited with fixing just about anything. But what exactly is apple cider vinegar and why is it so useful?
What is in Apple Cider Vinegar?
There are many different substances in apple cider vinegar, including important minerals, trace elements, vitamins, acetic acid, propionic acid, lactic acid, enzymes, amino acids, and roughage in the form of potash and apple pectin. Following is a list of just some of the minerals, trace elements, and vitamins found in apple cider vinegar:
potassium
calcium
magnesium
phosphorus
chlorine
sodium
sulfur
copper
iron
silicone
fluorine
vitamin C
vitamin A
vitamin E
vitamin B1
vitamin B2
vitamin B6
beta carotene
vitamin P
What is Apple Cider Vinegar Useful For?
Apple cider vinegar is useful for a whole range of things including:
helping the metabolism to function correctly
reducing the levels of bad cholesterol in the body
regulating the water content in the cells and body
reducing water retention in the body
helps with regulating blood pressure
helps to prevent circulatory problems
helps with reducing premature calcification of the arteries
increases concentration and memory
helps with blood circulation
helps to regulate the body temperature
increases general vitality and energy
Apple cider vinegar is a powerful detoxifying and purifying agent. It breaks down fatty, mucous, and phlegm deposits in the body and, by doing so, improves the health and function of the vital organs of the body, such as the liver, kidney, and bladder by preventing excessively alkaline urine. It oxidises and thins the blood, and promotes digestion, assimilation and elimination, as well as neutralising toxic substances that enter the body. Apple cider vinegar has also been found to neutralise harmful bacteria found in certain foods.
Apple cider vinegar is rich in potassium, and this is believed to ease the effects of common colds and allergies. It is also helpful for tooth decay and splitting fingernails, both of which are signs of potassium deficiency. Potassium is also important for the replacement of worn out tissues within the body and also for soft tissue repair. Apple cider vinegar is also thought to help arthritis, either as a beverage, or with compresses soaked in hot vinegar and applied to the affected joints. It is also helpful in the treatment of asthma, nose bleeds, osteoporosis, candida, high cholesterol, colds, constipation, muscle cramps, colitis, diabetes, diarrhea, depression, dizziness, ear discharge, eczema, fatigue, gallstones, kidney stones, hay fever, headaches, heartburn, hiccups, indigestion, insomnia, kidney and bladder problems, metabolism, nasal congestion, sore throats, stiff joints, ulcers, and weight loss.

Antioxidants
Antioxidants
Antioxidants have quite a number of health benefits and are a vital part of any diet. They are present in a number of fresh foods and their role is to neutralise the effects of free radicals upon the body.
What Are Free Radicals?
Free radicals are produced as part of everyday life. Even breathing in oxygen is enough to cause the production of free radicals! Normally, the body is able to neutralise these free radicals on its own, but external factors such as pollution, UV radiation, alcohol, and smoking can cause an overload of free radicals that the body is unable to cope with, leading to damage. This damage is a major cause of ageing, and it can contribute to a variety of illnesses. Some examples of the damages that free radicals can cause include:
inflammation of the joints
deterioration in the eyes
accelerating the ageing process
increasing the risk of heart disease
damaging the nerve cells in the brain
What Do Antioxidants Do?
Antioxidants help the body to neutralise the free radicals. There are over 4000 compounds present in food that have antioxidant properties. Oxidation in the body produces free radicals which in turn cause oxidative stress within the body. Antioxidants, as their name suggests, are capable of stabilising the free radicals before they cause damage.
As an example of the protective effects of antioxidants, the lycopene in tomatoes may help protect men against prostate cancer, the lutein in spinach and corn may reduce the degeneration of the eye lens, and flavenoids may help to lower the risk of heart disease.
Types of Antioxidants
Antioxidants are found in foods in the form of vitamins, minerals, carotenoids and so on. It is easy to identify antioxidants by the colour of the foods – different coloured foods have different antioxidants so it is important to have a diet that is rich in all food colours to ensure that you are getting adequate amounts of each antioxidant.
As previously mentioned, there are over 4000 compounds that have antioxidant properties. Some of the most commonly known include:
vitamin C – is found in citrus fruits, blackcurrants, capsicum, and berries
vitamin E – is found in vegetable oils, avocadoes, nuts, and wholegrains
beta carotene – is found in pumpkin, and carrots
selenium – is found in seafood, lean meat, and wholegrains
anthocyanins – are found in berries, eggplants, and grapes
catechins – are found in red wine and tea
flavenoids – are found in tea, citrus fruits, red wine, and apples
isoflavenoids – are found in soy products, lentils, and milk
lignans – are found in sesame seeds, bran, vegetables, and wholegrains
lutein – is found in leafy greens and corn
lycopene – is found in tomatoes and watermelon
manganese – is found in lean meat, seafood, milk, and nuts
polyphenols – are found in thyme and oregano
The foods associated with the antioxidants above are just examples of what foods the associated antioxidants can be found in. Some of the best overall sources of antioxidants are berries, walnuts, sunflower seeds, pomegranates, and ginger. In fact, you could think of these as the “superfoods” of the antioxidant world.

ALCALINE H2O
Alkaline Water
Water is water, right? Not necessarily. Alkaline water can help to create proper health in your body. Read on to learn more.
The Importance of the Acid-Alkaline Balance
Optimal health in the body starts with having the correct acid-alkaline balance. The pH levels of our internal fluids affects every cell in the body and an extended acid imbalance of any kind can lead to health problems. The body will maintain a very narrow pH range, especially in the blood. Most interior living matter has a pH of around 6.8. The blood plasma and the other fluids that surround the bodily cells have a pH of 7.2 to 7.45. A blood pH of 6.9 can induce coma and death. All bodily systems are secondary to the importance of pH balancing. If the pH becomes too acidic, the person may experience low energy levels, fatigue, excess weight, poor digestion, aches and pains, and even more serious problems. The acidity cycle occurs through people eating acidifying foods; pathogens creating acidifying toxins in the body; and the body not eliminating acids properly. The process of reestablishing the correct acid-alkaline balance begins with proper nutrition. This includes eating alkalising foods, proper supplementation, and drinking plenty of alkaline water that is ionic and structured.
Why Water is so Important in Maintaining the Acid-Alkaline Balance
Water is the most essential element in establishing and maintaining the correct acid-alkaline balance. The quality of the water is just as important as how much of it you drink, as the water that you ingest must be capable of preventing toxins and chemicals from accumulating and creating destructive influences within the cells. It also transports minerals and nutrients that are necessary for cell metabolism, and remove substances that can damage the cell. The water that you drink should have a pH of between 9 and 10.
The water needs to be alkaline and ionised. Alkaline water helps to neutralise the stored acids and toxins in the body. Once neutralised, the body can then remove them. Alkaline water that is also ionised acts as a conductor of electrochemical activity from cell to cells. Studies have shown that ionised, alkaline water can help the body to resist disease and slow aging by increasing intercellular hydration, replenishing essential minerals, stabilising and protecting cells, helping to maintain a normal blood flow and acid-alkaline balance, flushing out and preventing waste from accumulating in cells, and preventing free radicals from forming and damaging other cells.
Free radicals are unstable positively charged oxygen atoms that are created by the body with the purpose of oxidising putrefactive matter, but they are over produced by a body that is out of balance. To stabilise themselves, free radicals will steal electrons from stable cells. When the cell loses the electron from a pair, it loses energy and diets. Ionised water can prevent the cells from losing these electrons and restabilise the oxygen molecule, thus neutralising the free radicals.
Creating Alkaline Water at Home
Water distillers heat tap water electrically to boiling point. The purified condensation then drains into a clean container, leaving the impurities behind in the boiling chamber. The process of distillation kills and removes bacteria, viruses, cysts, and heavy metals. It has more oxygen ions and fewer hydrogen ions, making the water more alkaline than other types of water.
Water ionisers ionise water by running it over positive and negative electrodes. This separates the water into alkaline and acidic. This is great as the alkaline water is used for drinking while the acidic water can be used on the outside of the body as it is proven to kill many types of bacteria. Some water ionisers also come with an alkalinity adjustment, allowing you to set your preferred level of alkalinity.
Reverse osmosis water filters use a fine membrane to filter water, allowing the removal of bacteria, sugars, salts, proteins, particles, dyes, and other damaging elements. The membrane is semi-permeable, allowing the water through while removing the contaminants. Reverse osmosis water is far more alkaline than tap or bottled water.
Water is water, right? Not necessarily. Alkaline water can help to create proper health in your body. Read on to learn more.
The Importance of the Acid-Alkaline Balance
Optimal health in the body starts with having the correct acid-alkaline balance. The pH levels of our internal fluids affects every cell in the body and an extended acid imbalance of any kind can lead to health problems. The body will maintain a very narrow pH range, especially in the blood. Most interior living matter has a pH of around 6.8. The blood plasma and the other fluids that surround the bodily cells have a pH of 7.2 to 7.45. A blood pH of 6.9 can induce coma and death. All bodily systems are secondary to the importance of pH balancing. If the pH becomes too acidic, the person may experience low energy levels, fatigue, excess weight, poor digestion, aches and pains, and even more serious problems. The acidity cycle occurs through people eating acidifying foods; pathogens creating acidifying toxins in the body; and the body not eliminating acids properly. The process of reestablishing the correct acid-alkaline balance begins with proper nutrition. This includes eating alkalising foods, proper supplementation, and drinking plenty of alkaline water that is ionic and structured.
Why Water is so Important in Maintaining the Acid-Alkaline Balance
Water is the most essential element in establishing and maintaining the correct acid-alkaline balance. The quality of the water is just as important as how much of it you drink, as the water that you ingest must be capable of preventing toxins and chemicals from accumulating and creating destructive influences within the cells. It also transports minerals and nutrients that are necessary for cell metabolism, and remove substances that can damage the cell. The water that you drink should have a pH of between 9 and 10.
The water needs to be alkaline and ionised. Alkaline water helps to neutralise the stored acids and toxins in the body. Once neutralised, the body can then remove them. Alkaline water that is also ionised acts as a conductor of electrochemical activity from cell to cells. Studies have shown that ionised, alkaline water can help the body to resist disease and slow aging by increasing intercellular hydration, replenishing essential minerals, stabilising and protecting cells, helping to maintain a normal blood flow and acid-alkaline balance, flushing out and preventing waste from accumulating in cells, and preventing free radicals from forming and damaging other cells.
Free radicals are unstable positively charged oxygen atoms that are created by the body with the purpose of oxidising putrefactive matter, but they are over produced by a body that is out of balance. To stabilise themselves, free radicals will steal electrons from stable cells. When the cell loses the electron from a pair, it loses energy and diets. Ionised water can prevent the cells from losing these electrons and restabilise the oxygen molecule, thus neutralising the free radicals.
Creating Alkaline Water at Home
Water distillers heat tap water electrically to boiling point. The purified condensation then drains into a clean container, leaving the impurities behind in the boiling chamber. The process of distillation kills and removes bacteria, viruses, cysts, and heavy metals. It has more oxygen ions and fewer hydrogen ions, making the water more alkaline than other types of water.
Water ionisers ionise water by running it over positive and negative electrodes. This separates the water into alkaline and acidic. This is great as the alkaline water is used for drinking while the acidic water can be used on the outside of the body as it is proven to kill many types of bacteria. Some water ionisers also come with an alkalinity adjustment, allowing you to set your preferred level of alkalinity.
Reverse osmosis water filters use a fine membrane to filter water, allowing the removal of bacteria, sugars, salts, proteins, particles, dyes, and other damaging elements. The membrane is semi-permeable, allowing the water through while removing the contaminants. Reverse osmosis water is far more alkaline than tap or bottled water.
Go alcaline!
Alkaline foods are vital for helping the body to maintain its natural pH balance. Read on to find out more about why this balance needs to be maintained and to learn more about alkaline foods.
What is pH and Why is it Important?
The pH level of the body needs to be maintained at a level between 7.35 and 7.45. If it is higher or lower than this, symptoms or disease will occur. If the level drops to below 6.8 or rises above 7.8 the cells will stop working and the body will die. When the pH level of the body is not correctly maintained, there are negative effects on the body including problems such as bone weakness, heart problems, obesity and weight problems, allergies, and fatigue, just to name a few.
Why Eat Alkaline Foods?
Because the typical Western diet is largely made up of proteins, sugars, and other acid-forming foods, it is important to try and alkalinise the diet so that acidosis, and therefore disease do not occur. It is important to try and avoid eating too much acid-producing food such as sugars, dairy, meat, caffeine, alcohol, wheat, yeast, fruits, bad fats, and salts. As a general guide, manufactured or processed foods are acid-producing while natural foods (with a few exceptions), are alkaline-producing. At least 60 percent of alkaline-producing foods should be eaten, although the ideal amount is 75 to 80 percent alkaline foods to 20 to 25 percent acidic foods.
How do Alkaline Foods Help the Body?
If the correct ratio of alkaline and acidic foods in the diet is maintained, the body is healthy and able to resist disease. When a person is suffering from disease where acidosis, or having too much acid in their bodies, is present, adding alkaline foods to the diet will help the person to recover faster. This is because the alkaline elements will neutralise the acids and help to build an “emergency store” of alkaline elements that the body can draw upon to help neutralise acids in the future.
Examples of Alkaline Foods
Alkaline foods include:
Vegetables – such as asparagus, artichokes, cabbage, lettuce, onion, cauliflower, radish, swedes, peas, zucchini, leeks, watercress, spinach, turnip, chives, carrots, beans, beetroot, garlic, celery, grasses, cucumber, broccoli, and Brussels sprouts
Fruits – but only lemon, lime, avocado, tomato, grapefruit, watermelon, and rhubarb. Other fruits are classified as being acidic.
Drinks – such as “green drinks”, fresh vegetable juices, pure water, lemon water, herbal tea, vegetable broth, unsweetened soy milk, and almond milk
Seeds, Nuts and Grains – such as almonds, pumpkin, sunflower, sesame, flax, buckwheat, spelt, lentils, cumin seeds, and any sprouted seed.
Fats and Oils – such as flax, hemp, avocado, olive, evening primrose, and borage
Other foods – such as sprouts (e.g. alfalfa, mung bean, chickpea etc), hummus, and tahini

Reduce acidic foods!
Acidic Foods
Acidic foods are becoming ever more common in the Western diet but they may be doing us more harm than good. Read on to find out why we need to balance acidic and alkaline foods.
Why do we need to Balance Acidic and Alkaline Foods?
The pH of the blood in the body is important as if the balance is incorrect, symptoms
and disease may occur. The blood pH should be slightly alkaline (between 7.35 and 7.45). if the pH drops below 6.8 or moves above 7.8, the cells in the body will stop functioning and death will occur. Thus, the body, continually strives to maintain its pH. If the diet is not balanced and is too high in acid-forming foods such as animal protein, sugar, stimulants, and processed food, extra pressure is placed on the body to regulate its pH.
Our current diet is largely made up of acid-forming foods with alkaline-producing foods, such as vegetables, being eaten in much smaller quantities. Stimulants such as coffee, tea, and alcohol are also extremely acidifying. Many foods are alkaline-producing by nature, but processed foods are usually very acid-producing. For this reason, we should be eating at least 60 percent of alkaline-producing foods in order to maintain good health. Not only do processed, sugary or simple carbohydrate foods produce acid, they also raise the blood sugar level very quickly and tend to be low in nutrients.
Examples of Acidic Foods
Acidic foods include:
Meats – such as pork, lamb, beef, chicken, turkey, and seafood (apart from the occasional oily fish such as salmon)
Dairy Products – such as milk, cheese, cream, yogurt, ice cream
Drinks – such as soft drinks, coffee, tea, alcohol, fruit juice, dairy-based smoothies, and milk
Other Foods – such as eggs, vinegar, white pasta, white bread, wholemeal bread, biscuits, soy sauce, condiments, artificial sweeteners, and honey
Fast Foods – such as sweets, chocolate, microwave meals, canned foods, instant soups, instant meals, and takeaway fast food
Fats and Oils – such as saturated fats, hydrogenated oils, margarine, corn oil, vegetable oil, and sunflower oil
Fruits – all fruits excluding those that are listed as being alkaline foods
Seeds and Nuts – peanuts, cashew nuts, and pistachio nuts
Problems Caused by Acidic Foods
If the body is too acidic, the body will take alkaline minerals from the body in order to maintain its pH levels. Such minerals include sodium, potassium, magnesium, and calcium, and depletion of these can result in the person becoming prone to chronic or degenerative disease. The minerals are taken from the vital organs of the body and the bones in order to neutralise the acid and safely remove it from the body.
If you have a health problem, it is likely that you are suffering from acidosis. Acidosis decreases the body’s ability to absorb minerals and other nutrients, energy production in the cells, the body’s ability to repair damaged cells, and the body’s ability to detoxify heavy metals. It also helps abnormal cells to grow and makes the body more susceptible to fatigue or illness. acidosis can cause or contribute to such problems as:
cardiovascular damage
weight gain or obesity
diabetes
bladder conditions
kidney stones
hormonal problems
premature ageing
osteoporosis
low energy or chronic fatigue
digestive disorders
yeast or fungal overgrowth
headache
increased susceptibility to infections
emotional issues such as becoming easily stressed, depression, and lack of enthusiasm
easily irritated skin or dry skin
dull hair and thin nails
oral problems such as loose, painful teeth, inflamed gums, mouth ulcers, and cracks at the corners of the lips

Pro Thin Weight Management System Testimonials
Posted: 19 Mar 2009 01:28 AM PDT
It all begins with a choice! And in this case it was the choice to release the FAT!
03/11/06
I decided to start the ProThin Weight Management Program during a Leadership Event in October 2006 with Jerry Clark and Artemis Limpert. I realized as I listened to Artemis how important it was to be congruent, as my mind had become stodgy so had my body, or was it the other way around?
Either way, looking at it, it was time to become ProThin! My goal was to transform my body, utilizing the ProThin Weight Management Program before the Neways Convention in February 2007. Through the product and the program combined I had ‘amazing’ results!
Prior to embarking on the Prothin I found it difficult to run on the Treadmill for longer than 2mins at 9km/hr and I weighed 88kgs. 3months after starting the program I was 78kgs, 4kgs below my Goal weight and I could run for 15mins at 12km/hr.
Heather and I started attending the Gym in accordance with the recommendations of the program. Having a “Buddy” made the journey so much easier, and rewarding.I formed a new habit and the most impressive thing was the change in my attitude...what I found was as my health improved, so did my business, and my clarity of mind.
Through the simple discipline of attending the gym daily and continuing to use the ProThin Weight Management Program I was able to achieve some amazing goals. One of my proudest achievement was completing the 2007 City 2 Surf.
Thanks to the challenge issued by my friend and Team Member, Inna Pavlova, a 2 x Olympic Silver Medal Rower and Olympic Rowing Coach. I completed the City 2 Surf’s 14.4km run in 95mins 10secs. I was placed in the top 1/3 (17,514th) of the total 64,713 fellow competitors.The reason for achieving my goals, was a combination of the ProThin Weight Management Program, a strong mindset, constant daily discipline and an exercise and training routine, designed and supported by Inna.
You know it really doesn’t matter what YOU put your mind to you can achieve it!
It’s just a matter of making a choice, creating a plan to achieve it and carrying out the actions!
Just like I did!

By Craig Griffiths- Certified Karate Instructor, Personal Coach, Sales Trainer & Nutritional
Adviser Congratulations' for taking the bull by the horns and committing to becoming a leaner, meaner Neways recruiting machine.
"Most people let it happen, you're making it happen" Well Done...!
For those that don't know me I run karate schools throughout the Gold Coast Qld with over 700 people training each week. I teach over 50 instructors per week & have done for 12 years. I have seen thousands of people try to achieve a better quality of life through karate and exercise. I have personally helped hundreds & thousands do just that and seen some fantastic achievements along the way
.On a personal level I'd have to say' one of the greatest things I have done in my adult life, besides help all those people get their lives on track was to improve my life through exercise & then nutrition (Neways). When we exercise we become fitter, stronger, leaner, more flexible, energetic, faster, positively younger and by doing that combined with great nutrition you are starting a journey which will give you everything you could ever want from your body & life.
Before karate at age 27 I was 103kg and very unfit. I didn't think I would ever get back into sport due to a serious car accident at 19 so I just trashed my life pretty much.
"What I call soft living" but' then I was introduced to karate and after just 5 months of training just once per week at the start I lost 10kg. I could see my body changing shape WOW!I was then offered a full-time position training in the club. I became a Sales Consultant and doing sales was something I never dreamed of doing.It became "My dream job, really!" I became very good at it very quickly.I continued pushing myself in karate and in the business, not only did I achieve my ideal weight of 85kg's. I become a champion recruiter of people, in 2.2 yrs (26 months) I personally recruited 2918 people into our club in S/E Melbourne.
I have been a business coach, sales trainer & karate instructor for well over a decade.
"I have the runs on the board so to speak", teaching hundreds of sales consultants and karate instructors to do their jobs well.
I have been using Neways for 41/2 years and loving it. Not only do I feel great and look healthier than ever, I perform better than ever and keep getting better EVERY DAY!I have become a health fanatic, a nutrional, supplementing, toxic free karate junky.
Thanks to Neways, Peter & Marie France & of coarse Christen Collins my sponsor.
I love Pro Thin and have it for a lunch time shake... Why you might ask if I am already my ideal weight, because it taste great and it does what it is supposed to do nurishes the body. It helps me maintain my weight and fitness level. Lately I have been improving my diet and health to an even higher level and would like to share with you my latest and most AWESOME smoothy you will ever drink, It's called"THE CHOCOLATE AVOCARDO SMOOTHY" it's full of the good stuff ie;

Sagging Economy Has People Looking for Additional Income
Posted: 15 Mar 2009 12:29 PM PDT
NBC recently did a news piece called, "People Turn to 'Network Marketing' In Soft Economy."
As many of us know, and as the world is starting to catch on, this is the optimal time for you to share Neways. With so many people looking for additional income, Neways is the perfect opportunity.
You could help change some one's life.
"These are legitimate businesses," Dr. Betsy Holloway of Samford University's Brock School of Business said. Doctor Holloway said that direct sales have been growing for a decade, and there's potential for them to get even bigger.
"I think in today's economy with the layoffs that we have and people desperate to find work, there's going to be increased demand for these sorts of opportunities."
Make sure you're the first to talk to people as they are looking for supplemental income, before they go to another company. Why would you want your neighbor, friend, or family member going to another company that doesn't have safety-conscious products and has a weak compensation plan?
This is the easiest time to approach people, as most people are already looking for a great company to join.
Neways is that company.

Chemical shock for campaigning stars

Chemical shock for campaigning starsLast updated at 12:32 16 May 2005
Toxic: Fiona tested for dangerous chemicals
Potentially dangerous industrial chemicals have been found in the blood of a group of celebrities after tests as part of a health campaign.
Comedian and author David Baddiel, property developer and Property Ladder star Sarah Beeny, GMTV host Fiona Phillips, chef Anthony Worrall Thompson, swimmer Sharron Davies and television presenters Melinda Messenger and Donna Air were tested for 104 different chemicals.
The tests, carried out for the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) and the Co-operative Bank, showed that the least contaminated was Sharron Davies who only had 10 of the chemicals tested for in her sample.
Sarah Beeny was found to have the highest level with 30 chemicals in her blood - in some of the highest concentrations yet seen in WWF and the Co-operative Bank's biomonitoring surveys.
The tested chemicals included banned organochlorine pesticides such as DDT; brominated flame-retardants found in furniture and electrical equipment; phthalates found in cosmetics and flexible plastics; PCBs from old electrical equipment and building materials and perfluroninated chemicals used in non-stick and stain proofing treatments.
Celebrity contamination
Justin Woolford, director of WWF's Chemicals and Health Campaign, said:
"All of the celebrities were contaminated with toxic chemicals. It highlights the shocking fact that it is impossible for any of us to avoid these nasty substances.
"WWF is fighting to get the chemicals industry regulated better, so that the worst of these chemicals are phased out or replaced with safer alternatives to protect people and wildlife, and to stop the chemicals industry contaminating us all in our day-to-day lives."
Kate Daley, campaigns manager at the Co-operative Bank, said:
"Normally we'd find it comforting to have something in common with celebrities, but not in this instance.
"These blood-tests demonstrate, yet again, that man-made chemical contamination is a fact of modern life.
"What's less certain is how safe these chemicals are and what risk they may pose to ourselves, our children and our environment.
"Our customers are very concerned about persistent and bioaccumulative chemicals like these, which is why we refuse to invest in their manufacture and why we have been campaigning with WWF for stronger regulation and safer alternatives."

Sagging Economy Has People Looking for Additional Income
Posted: 15 Mar 2009 12:29 PM PDT
NBC recently did a news piece called, "People Turn to 'Network Marketing' In Soft Economy."
As many of us know, and as the world is starting to catch on, this is the optimal time for you to share Neways. With so many people looking for additional income, Neways is the perfect opportunity.
You could help change some one's life.
"These are legitimate businesses," Dr. Betsy Holloway of Samford University's Brock School of Business said. Doctor Holloway said that direct sales have been growing for a decade, and there's potential for them to get even bigger.
"I think in today's economy with the layoffs that we have and people desperate to find work, there's going to be increased demand for these sorts of opportunities."
Make sure you're the first to talk to people as they are looking for supplemental income, before they go to another company. Why would you want your neighbor, friend, or family member going to another company that doesn't have safety-conscious products and has a weak compensation plan?
This is the easiest time to approach people, as most people are already looking for a great company to join.
Neways is that company.

Chemical shock for campaigning starsLast updated at 12:32 16 May 2005
Toxic: Fiona tested for dangerous chemicals
Potentially dangerous industrial chemicals have been found in the blood of a group of celebrities after tests as part of a health campaign.
Comedian and author David Baddiel, property developer and Property Ladder star Sarah Beeny, GMTV host Fiona Phillips, chef Anthony Worrall Thompson, swimmer Sharron Davies and television presenters Melinda Messenger and Donna Air were tested for 104 different chemicals.
The tests, carried out for the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) and the Co-operative Bank, showed that the least contaminated was Sharron Davies who only had 10 of the chemicals tested for in her sample.
Sarah Beeny was found to have the highest level with 30 chemicals in her blood - in some of the highest concentrations yet seen in WWF and the Co-operative Bank's biomonitoring surveys.
The tested chemicals included banned organochlorine pesticides such as DDT; brominated flame-retardants found in furniture and electrical equipment; phthalates found in cosmetics and flexible plastics; PCBs from old electrical equipment and building materials and perfluroninated chemicals used in non-stick and stain proofing treatments.
Celebrity contamination
Justin Woolford, director of WWF's Chemicals and Health Campaign, said:
"All of the celebrities were contaminated with toxic chemicals. It highlights the shocking fact that it is impossible for any of us to avoid these nasty substances.
"WWF is fighting to get the chemicals industry regulated better, so that the worst of these chemicals are phased out or replaced with safer alternatives to protect people and wildlife, and to stop the chemicals industry contaminating us all in our day-to-day lives."

MelbourneBushfire appeal
Read all about how Neways distributors like you were able to pull together to help the victims of the Australian brush fires.
This article was picked up by the U.K. website The Earth Times, and it just shows the world once again what wonderful and giving distributors Neways has.
Neways is all about making the world a better place one home at a time, whether that's giving the world safety-conscious products or helping those in need. Neways truly makes a difference.
Australia recently experienced what many believe are the worst bushfires in the nation’s history, which killed an estimated 250 people and destroyed over 1,000 homes.
“The human losses are unimaginable and a real tragedy, and our hearts go out to their families,” said Andy Kirss, managing director of Neways Australia. “People have also lost their homes, their clothes, their cars, their livestock, and their pets, and all their worldly goods. Their lives will be affected for a long, long time to come.”
In response to the tragedy, Neways Australia issued a call to Neways distributors across the nation to help render assistance through the Red Cross and the Salvation Army. In addition, the company donated $10,000 in cash to support the relief efforts.
“Neways distributors have given generously to the appeal, as have most Australians, which is very heartening,” said Kirss.
While no Neways distributors are known to have lost their lives, one distributor lost a brother, and some distributors lost their homes and possessions. “We are making arrangements to send them some Neways products to keep them going in the short term,” said Kirss.
“We want to recognise the outstanding efforts of all the volunteers who have willingly given of their time and energy to fight the fires and support the work being done in so many other ways,” said Kirss. “There are many heroes out there, and we sincerely hope they get the praise they deserve. Neways joins in giving a big thank-you to all involved.”
Bushfire relief donations can be made to the Red Cross Appeal at www.redcross.org.au or via the Salvation Army at www.salvationarmy.com.au.

Aluminium
Found in Deodorants Aluminum is a metal, the third most common element in the environment and a toxin in the body.
You'll find it in processed foods, antiperspirants, antacids, paper products, beverage cans, foil and cookware.
World Health Organization conducts studies on chemical pollution and the elderly...
"There is a suspected link between Alzheimer's disease and the toxicity of aluminum... autopsies have found high concentrations of the metal in the brain of people who had suffered from the disease."
-from Public Health Reports, Nov-Dec 1993 v108n6p798(2)
Studies linking aluminum to Alzheimer's disease...
"The evidence is strong enough that the prudent person will eliminate all food and cosmetic sources of aluminum and will use aluminum cooking utensils only if they are coated,"
suggests Gary Price Todd, MD, author of Nutrition, Health and Disease.
-from Natural Health, May-June 1993 v23n3p54(2)
Dr. Daniel Perl, Director of Neuropathology at Mount Sinai Medical Center in New York, suggests "...avoid aerosol antiperspirants. Aluminum in aerosol may be more readily absorbed into the brain through nasal passages."
-from The University of California, Berkeley Wellness Letter, April 1993 v9n7p1(2)
"Aluminum-containing antiperspirants are designed to be absorbed, and studies show that regular use of these products can raise the risk of Alzheimer's by as much as three-fold. (also)...municipal water supplies treated with alum (aluminum sulfate)...at least 7 studies show that people drinking water high in alum are more likely to develop Alzheimer's"
-from Natural Health, May-June 1993 v23n3p54(2)
Alzheimer's disease is now the 4th leading cause of death among the elderly, behind heart disease, cancer and stroke. A half century ago it was virtually unheard of! Something's going on! Our bodies are rebelling against this chemical invasion. Will you take action! Either way, you're betting your life!

Cervical cancer vaccine
Thank you,
This has gone to everyone on my data base!
About this time of the year last year we sent out this email, and the questions are still the same for most Mum’s and Dad’s, because their daughters are coming home with the consent forms for this Cervical Cancer Vaccine. Should we or shouldn’t we? Well from our research and hearing and reading the experiences of others, we shouldn’t give this to our daughters!
You could call us Crack Pot’s… I’d call it being responsible, and making a responsible choice!
Please take the time to read this experience from just one of the Mums we know and then do your own research. Please don’t have this done just because THEY SAY (whoever THEY are) and be one of the Guinea Pigs…we don’t yet know the long term effects from this immunisation!
Wishing you all the best of Health in 2009,
James Christopoulos Bsc

Becoming a Responsible Sponsor
Please note: From approaching people (prospects) to signing them up as members in your company that’s becomes
part A – The teams step by step duplication formula
In part B – When people join your company and Network Marketing their psychology changes in a one second they are no longer a prospect, they are part of your team. As a team member they become passionate, excited about the mission, they make a commitment, and to help people with the products and the opportunity.

As a team member they become passionate, excited about the mission, they make a commitment, and to help people with the products and the opportunity.
To be willing to do the action to have health, time and financial freedom and change the world.
To follow the team’s success system, they are willing to be teacher able, to learn the system, to listen and work with their sponsor, upline support team and to ‘do what ever it take’ to succeed.
As soon as they sign the application form and place their first order they are a part of your team.
Listen to what they want (it’s not important what you want) and help them succeed, in what they want from your company with your support and a proven step by step success system, this is all about a team concept always follow-up, follow-up & follow-up.
Hopes of effortless riches entire many people into Network Marketing and members often rush to sign up high on excitement. You must commit to succeed by Being, Doing and Having.

When you enrolled, did you say?
I’ll try;
I’ll do my best;
orI’ll do what it takes
If you’re a 1 you’ll probably fail because you silently admitted it might not work;If you’re a 2 you definitely have a better chance of success;If you’re a 3 congratulations, you’ll make it big time.
They are two types of people that work in network marketing: those who quit… and those who make all the money.
You must take action daily to achieve your goals.
Until there is a commitment there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back. Make sure new people coming into the company make a commitment.They will only do so if they have defined clearly what they want from the business and you help them to achieve it.
New members get excited, and then if they don’t receive a positive response from the first few people they approach, they can quite before they get started.
You gain more respect and will see greater success if you tell people what its going to take, rather then what you think they want to hear.
Such as, 10 hours per week for 24 months.
Do this before they get involved building a Networking marketing business.
Then after they’re involved prepare them in advance for “Dream Stealers” and problems.
That’s just how life is. Please don’t exaggerate; people have an instinctive edibility to judge the sincerity of others. Above all, let them know it’s a team effort we are there to support them.
Your job is not to convince people that your company is a great opportunity, but rather, to find those people who are searching and ready for this opportunity and upon finding it, will do something with it.
But you must teach and help them. The best way that I have found is with 3-way calling with your sponsor, get the prospect personally involved, helps eliminate a fear of rejection and presents a supporting environment where you can educate while sponsoring new people into your business.
Your business can be as simple as asking someone if they would like to make some additional money. When they say “what is it?” set an appointment to show them opportunity. Do not attempt to explain everything over the phone. The purpose of your call is to set an appointment so you can show everything in its entirety.
If you give too much information over the phone they make a decision with limited information.
This is why we use a proven step by step team success system, a duplicate able formula.
