There has been much media hype about two new experimental cancer drugs, Endostatin and Angiostatin. As reported by Life Extension in 1997, when used together, they may very well prove to be a cure for many types of cancers. Now there is Shark Cartilage.

Like Shark Cartilage, like Endostatin and Angiostatin is anti-angiogenesis. It too  works by inhibiting the supply of blood needed for a cancerous tumor to sustain growth.

A team of Scientists headed by Dr. MichaelZasloff (University of Pennsylvania) reported to the National Academy of Sciences, they isolated a compound not belonging to any known class of chemicals. The compound "Squalamine" is the subject of research around the world, as it is believed to give sharks their phenomenal defense against infection and immunity to cancer.

HOW IT WORKS. The primary characteristic of cancer is that cancerous cells multiply rapidly. In order to accomplish such growth they require a large supply of blood, and often grow blood vessels to increase blood supply and continue rapid growth. This is "angiogenesis".

Researchers at M.I.T. confirm that the Squalamine found in shark cartilage inhibits angiogenesis, thus inhibiting the nourishment of tumors, 1000 times more effectively than cartilage from other animals. Without the ability to maintain and increase the concentration of blood required to sustain growth the tumor shrinks, then often completely disappears.

The ability of Shark Cartilage to inhibit the supply of blood needed for a cancerous tumor to sustain growth makes it, as reported on 60 minutes, an extremely effective cancer therapy.

Additionally, it might be effective against infectious diseases, even as the microbes that cause them become more resistant to drugs (like the strains of tubercule bacterium that now resist the antibiotics that once brought tuberculosis under control).

Dr. Zasloff reported to the National Academy Of Sciences that his team of scientists are conducting tests to determine which infections in humans will respond best to the compound, which studies now show has the antibacterial potency of ampicillin.

OTHER BENEFITS? There are now several independent studies indicating shark cartilage to be an effective treatment for arthritis. However, it is very important for anyone considering taking shark cartilage for anything other than cancer, to realize that the daily dose should only be about one tenth what cancer patients take.

For example, women who have had breast cancer and now take but 7 or 8 grams of shark cartilage daily, in addition to maintaining normal weight and eating nutritionally balanced diets, may prevent reoccurrence; whereas on average, the recurrence rate is about 30%.

The famous veterinarian Dr. Michael Fox, reports on a 7 year old Cocker Spaniel receiving cortisone shots for a skin ailment with no improvement. Her kidneys were suffering. Her Vet recommended that the dog be put to sleep, but her owners continued giving cortisone to combat the itching, until she took a turn for the worse and they feared they would loose her.

Since learning about Shark Cartilage's ability to boost the immune system, they give their dog one capsule of it a day. No cortisone. Her skin is healthy, and she hasn't itched for over two years.

Two things people considering shark cartilage should be aware of: 1. People who do not have cancer, should not take more than 8 grams a day as it is possible the ability to inhibit angiogenesis, while beneficial to cancer patients, may inhibit the growth of blood vessels necessary to the heart and kidneys.

The second is that because of all the publicity surrounding shark cartilage, some companies are taking advantage of the public's desire to acquire the product, by charging excessively high prices, claiming that their "brand' of shark cartilage is more expensive because it is somehow better; while other firms offer a diluted form for an absurdly low price.

Knowledgeable individuals avoid both extremes. They know: 1. that impure, diluted concentrations of shark cartilage consisting of less than 750 or 800 mg. of Pharmaceutical Grade shark cartilage is useless, and subsequently worthless; and: 2. If a capsule contains 800 mg. of pure superior grade shark cartilage it is as pure and effective as shark cartilage can be, and adding a brand name to it does not make it better or justify increasing its price.

    NEW!   New Research Results In Advanced Prostate Formula 

NEW PROSTATE  FORMULA  INFORMATION

When we develop a formula it is at the time, unquestionably the most advanced “cutting edge” formula of its kind. As technology progresses so do our formulas. This is the case with our Enhanced and greatly Advanced Prostate Formula.

It contains the most recent authenticated ingredients, proven to promote a healthy prostate, protect it, and to prevent and treat an enlarged prostate, prostate cancer and hypertrophy; as well as urinary urgency and difficulty with urine stream, suffered by men over 50. Young men with inflamed prostates and experiencing a decline in the ability to perform sexually may also benefit.

How is the Prostate Formula Advanced?  With Advanced Ingredients!!

New research shows the active element of pygeum that promotes normal prostate function is beta-sitosterol. The Advanced Formula contains 678 Mg. of beta-sitosterol; and it also has 100 mg. of pygeum. Pygeum extract enhances healthy function within the prostate gland and helps keep the prostate gland calm and contented.  It has 320 Mg. Serenoa Serrulata (“Pure” Saw Palmetto). Serenoa serrulata interferes with DHT activity in the prostate and acts as an alpha adrenergic receptor inhibitor in the prostate gland. This maintains healthy prostate function. It prevents the transformation of testosterone into dihydrotestosterone; acts directly on the enlarged prostate to reduce the inflammation and increase the bladder’s regular urinary flow.

The Advanced Prostate Formula has 252 Mg. of a Flower Pollen extract that is even more potent than the brand name Flower Pollen extract Cerniten®. Research concludes this ingredient alone will help preserve and promote a healthy prostate gland. It has increased amounts of Zinc to 50 Mg. It has decreased amounts of vitamin A to 200 I.U. to avoid overdosing. It has 10 Mg. of Lycopene extract. and 3 mg Boron (amino acid chelated) and 10 Mg. Ginseng.

This New, improved & Advanced Prostate Formula is designed to significantly improve the prostate’s ability to fight off disease and maintain healthy function; and we did NOT pass the price increase on to our Members or customers.

Some mistakenly think Saw Palmetto alone may help. It will not! However, the Advanced Prostate Formula will help prevent and help cure prostate disorders.  

Prostate disorder is the most prevalent illness in men. More than half of all men over the age of fifty experience prostate hypertrophy, prostatitis or cancer of the prostate gland.

The symptoms are bladder pain; urinary urgency or frequency (especially at night, requiring frequent visits to the bathroom); burning during urination; difficulty starting or ending the urine stream, and sometimes lower back pain.

Young men are not exempt; especially those with a tendency towards urinary infections. They often experience inflammation of the prostate gland (which secrets an important element of their semen) and a decline in their ability to perform sexually.

The very latest information regarding prostate disorders indicate that many are suffering unnecessarily from the pain and other symptoms produced by an enlarged or inflamed prostate gland.

Researchers know now that the major cause of prostate enlargement and prostate cancer is the transformation of testosterone into dihydrotestosterone and that this can often be blocked and/or reversed by the use of certain natural herbs and nutritional supplementation.

Serenoa serrulata is a herb that actually prevents the transformation of testosterone into dihydrotestosterone and blocks its production.

In his book "Herbal Medicine" Rudolf F. Weiss, M.D. states: "Serenoa serrulata is also called the 'plant catheter' because of its tonic effect on the neck of the bladder and on the prostate." Daniel Mowrey, Ph.D.; reports in "The Scientific Validation of Herbal Medicine": "Serenoa serrulata acts directly on the enlarged prostate to reduce the inflammation, pain and throb. It also increases the bladders ability to contract and expel its contents."

The list of references is impressive. Space prohibits giving all the clinical trials and testimonials. Those interested should contact the MEDLARS nearest them in order to access the latest information on this subject. All space permits here is a few quotes from recognized experts in this field. References quoted are available upon request.

"The liposterolic extract of the plant Serenoa serrulata, Permixon, has been shown to possess peripheral antiandrogenic activity and, in clinical trials, was found to significantly improve the symptoms of prostatic hyperplasia."

"Benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) is a disease associated with the presence of high level of the active metabolite of testosterone, dihydrotestosterone (DHT). The accumulation of DHT is due, in part, to an increased activity of the enzyme testosterone-5-alpha-reductase. Permixon, an extract of Serenoa serrulata, and a new treatment for BPH, has shown to be an antagonist of the cytosolic androgen receptor in rat prostate."

Pygeum africanumis a herb that years of testing has proven can alter the course of prostate inflammation. Its lipid soluble ingredients have therapeutic anti-edema effects.

5-alpha-reductase is responsible for the conversion of testosterone into the androgen that activates overproduction of prostate cells, and thus enlargement of the prostate gland.

Reports from doctors around the world heralding the success they've had treating prostate disorders with the herbal medications and nutrients described herein, are prompting Physicians who specialize in prostrate disorders and are knowledgeable in nutrition, to advise their patients to take the formulation found in the new Advanced prostate Formula daily, to avoid, as well as to treat prostate disorders.

Life  Extension's formula for the prevention and treatment of Prostate disorders, contains exact proportions of ingredients that clinical trials shown is the most effective formulation for the treatment of prostate disorders.

The recommended dose of from 2 to 4 tablets, for the prevention of Prostate disorders, is a guide. Men over 50 should take 4. Men under 40 usually require only 2 tablets a day. This recommended dose is almost always changed for men who have been diagnosed with an enlarged prostate, and are under the care of a Physician.

Men over forty should take the Formula as a dietary supplement for the prevention of prostate disorders, and take as directed by a Physician for the treatment of prostate disorders.

Scientific References: To date there are over 500 Clinical Trials, and Scientific Papers published on prostate disorders and the above referenced treatment. More research is being conducted and papers published monthly. The best source for reviewing the Scientific Literature referred to is the at the National Library of Medicine, U.S. Department of Health.

Regardless of the reason, today Aveloz and Taheebo are being used by Cancer Specialists around the world as primary treatment as well as co-therapeutic treatment against many forms of Cancer. The Mayo Clinic and John Hopkins, are but two of the better known Clinics, but these herbal remedies are fast becoming the preferred treatment by many better informed Ecologists; while many others know nothing of them and prefer to stick to chemotherapy and radiation.

One Physician with whom we at Life Extension have had experience and who has extensive experience with these two products is Dr. R. Roop at the Healthworld Clinic, #22 Pioneer Way, Freeport Grand Bahamas. However, for those seeking additional references on the use of Aveloz and/or Taheebo, it is recommended that they contact some, if not all, of the Doctors and Research Scientists mentioned in XtendOLife Reports; such as Dr. Paul Martin; Dr. James Duke at the National Institute Of Health; Dr. Norman Farnsworth at the University Of Illinois; Dr. Theododoro Myer and/or Dr. Prats Rutiz at the National University of Tucuman. Many may wish to do some research on their own regarding the effectiveness, uses and results practitioners are having with Aveloz and Taheebo. They may also wish to contact the MEDLARS for information and access this wealth of knowledge that your tax dollars pay for.

Aveloz is proving to be very effective in the treatment of "hard Tumors" but not very effective in fighting leukemia when used alone. However, the combination of Aveloz and Taheebo has proven to be very effective against leukemia. Taheebo alone has also been effective in this area, but not as effective as the combination of the two.

For the treatment of hard tumors, Aveloz alone seems to have the best results. It must always be taken however, with ample amounts of vitamin "C" (at least 2500 Mg. of C with each 15 drops of Aveloz mixed in juice or tea). One consideration is that Aveloz has been proven to have no ill side effects. It can help but can do no harm.

The attached list of Medical Clinics specializing in innovative Cancer treatments may be of help. Whether one does research themselves, or looks to one of the Clinics, they are wise to take matters into their own hands, and look beyond conventional treatments like Chemotherapy.

Five to ten drops of that same solution, depending on size and density, taken every hour, has been known to eliminate cancerous growths in one week. The hard tumor collapses.

What happens is that the cancer has been reduced to an ill-smelling paste by the tissue tearing (escharotic) properties of the solution. The elimination of the malignancy will cause an irritation of the kidneys, but that's all. You can alleviate that side effect by taking extra Vitamin C.

These two herbal anti-cancer agents are being used together. They are reported to be especially effective in cases of leukemia, almost always lowering white cell counts sharply. Aveloz and Taheebo do not cause any serious side effects and they do not interfere with other medications or treatments!

A Herb called Aveloz, native to South America may be the key in the battle to destroy cancer. One drop of its solution when applied to a wart has been known to destroy a growth in one day. That extraordinary property­­the power to eliminate neoplasms, malignant (skin cancers), drew the attention of professors of medicine. Here was a tumor remedy. Why not try it INTERNALLY to eliminate cancerous tumors? They did and it worked.

In one case, five drops of the solution, taken every hour, has been known to eliminate cancerous growths in one week. The hard tumor collapsed.

What happens is the cancer is reduced to an ill-smelling paste by the (escharotic) properties of the solution. The elimination of the malignancy will cause an irritation of the kidneys, but that's all. This side effect can be alleviated by taking extra Vitamin C.

Cats and dogs respond even faster than people to Aveloz. Veterinarians are now using Aveloz to cure cancerous tumors and leukemia in cats and dogs. Kennels that train Seeing eye and Guard dogs, use Aveloz as a preventative.

American herbal medicine experts Dr. James Duke, of the National Institute of Health, and Dr. Norman Farnsworth, of the University of Illinois, confirm Martin's claims. "Taheebo undoubtedly contains a substance found to be highly effective against cancers."

As clinical data of the use of taheebo in medicine has accumulated, this item of the Callaway pharmacopoeia emerges as a veritable "treasure of the Incas." It has been curing a long list of diseases.

Taheebo has a powerful anti-viral and antibiotic activity which makes it effective against a variety of diseases. It is an effective co-therapeutic for almost any condition. In South America it is often used as the primary therapeutic for some cancers, especially leukemia and sarcomas, psoriasis, warts, sores, eczema and other skin disorders.

WARNING! There are cheap extract imitations which can be dangerous. Use only certifiably pure Aveloz & Taheebo "concentrates" and "purified Tea". All substitutes contain impurities.

Taheebo Tea, should be sipped (not gulped) because the cancer fighting herb is absorbed through the throat and mouth as well as the stomach.

MEMO TO: PHYSICIANS  AND THEIR PATIENTS ON AVELOZ AND/OR TAHEEBO

SUBJECT: INSTRUCTIONS

The "instructions" that come with "Aveloz" and "Taheebo" are general instructions intended as "parameters" for Physicians, and/or people familiar with their particular condition.

Such familiarization comes only from testing, and a knowledge of the patients physical condition, age, and the type as well as the progression of the cancer involved. No two cases are the same. The amount and frequency of administration of these two products varies greatly from patient to patient depending on what they or their physician fell they can tolerate, the type of cancer involved, their age, physical condition etc.

The "5 drops, 3 times a day in tea or water" directions for Aveloz; and the 5-10 drops in 1oz. of water (Orange juice has proven to be better in both cases) for Taheebo, is recommended as safe and effective for the "average" condition (if there truly is such a thing). Statements like "Every Hour" refer to "Critical" cases. Obviously, one would then continue 24 hrs. a day until the patient is no longer critical.

It is recommended that one start with the dosages on the labels and increase or decrease the daily dosage as their body tolerates these products and/or their condition improves. If one feels his condition is more serious and warrants slightly more, he should take more. If one is taking these products as a preventive measure he would take less. If you are under the care of a physician it is recommended that you consult your own physician. He or she will be in a better position to determine the daily dose best suited for you. In the event he or she is unfamiliar with these products or the work being done worldwide with Aveloz & Taheebo, you can refer him to the MEDLARS.

Common sense mandates that you take the amount that would offer optimum results. Too little may not give the help desired, and too much would simply be wasting these valuable products, and possibly irritating the kidneys, because the body would simply pass out what it does not use.

Cats & Dogs follow a different set of rules because their metabolisms treat Aveloz differently. There is still insufficient feedback to determine a "Standard" or "Recommended " dose of Aveloz or Taheebo to use on Cats or Dogs. Reports of success vary form 1 drop per lb. once a day, to 2 drops per lb. three (or in the worse case reported) up to four times a day. The type cancer, its location, the pet's age and breed all play a part in determining dosage. For example, Poodles & Schnauzers seem to require more than Dobermans or Shepherds. Most Veterinarians start with 1 drop per lb. once a day and (if necessary) work slowly up to as much as 2 drops per lb. three times a day.

The bottom line is to use the minimum amount of either Aveloz or Taheebo that will produce the desired results.

FOR CRITICAL CASES TAKE EVERY HOUR. (PREFERABLY WITH TAHEEBO TEA AND AVELOZ).

FOR MILD CASES TAKE EVERY TWO HOURS.

FOR PREVENTATIVE NORMAL USE TAKE TWICE A DAY.

DUE TO ITS ANTI-INFLAMMATORY, HEALING, ANALGESIC, SEDATIVE AND TONIC PROPERTIES, AND TO ITS STRONG ANTIPHLOGISTIC ACTION, TAHEEBO IS INDICATED IN THE FOLLOWING CASES:

CANCER , RHEUMATISM, ARTHRITIS, DUODENUM ULCERS , BRONCHITIS, VAGINITIS VARIXES & HEMORRHOIDS INTESTINAL INFLAMMATION , VARICOSE ULCERS, ECZEMA, GASTRITIS, ANEMIA, & BLADDER INFLAMMATION.

European Research, using Radioactive Labeling, has conclusively demonstrated that a combination of the natural elements Glucosamine and Chondroitin Sulfate, commensurate with the formation of cartilage that caps at the ends of bones. Taken orally, it dramatically improves arthritic symptoms, and is often effective enough to serve as an alternative to joint replacement.

It is the deterioration of this joint cartilage, and the abnormalities caused in the adjoining bones, which result in the pain, stiffness and swelling associated with arthritis.

Anti-inflammatory drugs and exercise, currently used to slow joint deterioration and relieve discomfort for arthritis victims, do nothing at all to rebuild and restore the health of the damaged cartilage.

Rheumatology experts and Orthopedics in Europe believe the combination of Glucosamine and Chondroitin will be the first treatment to achieve this.

In the U.S. this product is currently being evaluated by Military Doctors at the Naval Hospital in Norfolk VA for its ability to relieve and/or eliminate arthritic stiffness, swelling and pain in the back and knees of U.S. Navy Seals.

Other clinical researchers in the U.S. are conducting double blind human trials. Dr. Amal Das, an Orthopedic Surgeon specializing in hip and knee replacement, is evaluating its effectiveness on 100 arthritis patients in Hendersonville, N.C.

He said he had been: "Searching for a biological alternative to joint replacement" when he saw the European Research associating Glucosamine with the reduction of pain and disability common in osteoarthritis, and Chondroitin with slowing the progression of the disease.

PETS CAME FIRST: Veterinarians here, have been using this combination to successfully treat arthritis, especially in Dogs & Horses, for years. It is completely safe. Cornell University's College of Veterinary Medicine conducted studies which showed no ill side effects.

The American College of Rheumatology noted the promise of early studies; and The Arthritis Foundation, cited reports that the combination is safe and "may be helpful in controlling pain and improving function."

Dr. Marc Hochberg, Chief of Rheumatology at the University of Maryland School of Medicine, said: Glucosamine and Chondroitin Sulfate, when taken orally for Osteoarthritis "appear to demonstrate that they are effective and warrant examination."

Dr. Das said: "If the compounds are proved to be as effective as the European Studies say they are, they should be used in the United States and they should replace the anti-inflammatory medications."

INGREDIENTS: Each Capsule: Glucosamine HCL 99+%. 250mg.; Sodium Chondroitin Sulfate 95% 200mg.; Mixed Glycosaminoglycans 5%; Manganese Ascorbate 33mg.; Selenium (Selenomethionine) 25mg.; Bromelain 25mg. Manganese (Ascorbate)  5mg.

New research reveals that Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) when properly combined with catalase and glutathione; (a formula referred to as Rheumatex®) successfully combats rheumatoid arthritis by reducing swelling.

The properties of SOD have long been known but regarded as effective only by injection because of its vulnerability to digestive enzymes. American ingenuity has now developed an enteric coated proteolitic enzyme tablet providing the ability to absorb SOD orally.

The following observations resulted from over 100 patient case studies during a ten year period.

1. Dosage:

A. Eight tablets daily on arising at least one-half hour before breakfast or on an empty stomach seemed most effective.

B. After favorable response was achieved, most could maintain the same results with two to four tablets taken once daily.

2. Side Effects: (Unfavorable observations 2%)

A. Approximately 1% reported cephalgia, presumably due to wheat sensitivity. Symptoms left and returned on repeated trial.

B. One subject with crippling rheumatoid arthritis reported definite aggravation of joint symptoms during repeated trials.

3. Favorable Observations:

A. Acute lumbar disc pain. 78% of individuals treated benefited.

1. Virtually all cases were documented as bulging or even extruding intervertebral disc cases. The first case was scheduled for surgery after three weeks of hospital management. Biotic SOD was started at 8 tablets daily on Tuesday. Surgery was scheduled for the following Monday, but The order was canceled. The patient remained asymptomatic a year-plus later, and stopped SOD after 30 days. CAT SCANS proved a disc particle was still herniated after SOD was discontinued. SOD relieved swelling and irritation of the nerve root responsible for the pain. The extruded disc material shriveled up in 6 months becoming harmless.

B. Chronic Cervical Pain. (Disc + Radiculopathy): 100% of cases managed improved or completely relieved of pain.

1. All cases of cervical outlet pain accompanied by chronic neck-shoulder-arm pain were markedly improved or completely relieved of pain.

C. Arthritis Pain.

1. Rheumatoid arthritis (severe and crippling): 78% positive response of inconsistently fair to excellent degree. Advanced cases often reported uniform reduction in swelling and stiffness of joints such as in the hands, but no relief of pain. Milder cases reported near complete and continuing relief of all joint symptoms including pain during SOD consumption.

2. Osteoarthritis: 72% of patients improved. This form of arthritis responded mostfavorably in the shoulder, hand and knee joint locations. Hip arthritis responded poorly.

INGREDIENTS: Each Tablet Contains: 4,000 units Superoxide Dismutase; 8,000 units Catalese; 600 units Glutathione Peroxidase; in a base of  bovine liver. 

DIRECTIONS: Eight  tablets  daily, on  an  empty to start.  Two  to  four  tablets daily after favorable response is achieved to maintain level.

With the introduction of stricter controls on the use of steroids to stimulate muscle growth, Life Extension has recognized the need for a natural alternative. This alternative is Protogen-A. Protogen-A is an all-natural product found in extract of brovine; (Protogen-A is the actual name of the active ingredient, it is not a trade name). Anatomic research has shown that Protogen-A stimulates growth and increases muscle size and density. This product is designed for Body Builders, Exercise fanatics, World Class Athletes and people who simply would like to increase their muscle mass in relation to their body fat and do it with a very limited amount of exercise.

WHAT IT IS: An exceptionally pure, natural product derived from prized grass-fed cattle. Freed of fat, water and connective tissue, and flash frozen to -18 degrees C . It is highly nutritious and is rich in vitamins, minerals, and amino acids.

PURPOSE: To burn fat and increase muscle mass, provide extra energy  and  suppress  appetites.

RESEARCH:  Muscle is your body’s metabolic engine! it requires more energy to maintain than fat, which means it can burn off more calories, even at rest. To support and maintain lean mass, you need Protogen-A  It is perfect for anyone whose calories are restricted or who burns calories too quickly. It’s a 100% protein matrix that consists of a unique protein blend designed to maximize your body’s ability to preserve lean muscle tissue under intense, stressful situations such as dieting or competing. Anatomic research  shows Protogen-A stimulates growth and increases muscle size and density. It is for people who would  like  to increase their muscle mass  in  relation  to  their  body  fat  and  do  it  with   a   limited   amount   of  exercise.

Losing muscle mass, whether you are a bodybuilder or just an individual trying to selectively burn body fat, the goal is the same: Preserve Lean Mass. Protogen-A’s exclusive protein matrix is engineered to maximize anti-catabolism. It can (1) maintain lean mass; (2) provide extra energy; (3) prime your metabolic potential; and (4) help suppress appetites. Under calorie-deficit situations, your body demands higher ratios of branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) and glucogenic amino acids. Gluconeogenic substrates are critical for generating extra energy during fasting (dieting) and preventing the leakage of aminos out of muscle tissue.

During sustained low carb/low fat dieting, your lean muscle tissues release glucogenic amino acids to increase gluconeogenesis, a process where additional glucose is produced for energy. As this process continues, you lose more and more muscle. Protogen-A prevents that from occurring by providing more alanine, glutamine, glycine, threonine, serine, methionine, tyrosine and lysine than any other protein supplement.

Protogen-A is high in BCAAs, particularly leucine, which studies show help preserve valuable lean mass during  exercise and dieting. BCAAs are also a source of energy and help the body selectively  burn fat for energy  during  carbohydrate-depleted states.

Finally, Protogen-A is rich in flavones and protein fractions which can enhance thyroid function for maximum fat burning and help you feel fuller, longer through CCK release. Protogen-A is also perfect for low carb dieters as it contains less than 1g of carbs  per serving and  no sugars.

INGREDIENTS: Each Tablet Contains 250mg. of Pure Protogen-A in a natural liver base, no artificial colors, salt, starch or preservatives. 

DIRECTIONS:  1 Tablet, 3 Times a Day, with food.

NEW! For Memory,  IQ, Focus & Concentration 

Cognodyne For Mind Power

Cognodyne is designed to Rejuvenate Brain Power and enhance focus and concentration. With age cognitive abilities decline; brain cells wear out, resulting in decreased brain function, ability to focus, concentrate and recall where we placed the keys, etc.

Cognodyne protects the brain, sharpens mental focus and cognitive function, and restores short-term memory loss. Its proprietary balanced formula contains scientifically proven ingredients in exact amounts to produce increased focus, mind power, concentration and to reverse short-term memory loss.

RESEARCH: A major cause of brain aging is the deterioration of the energy-producing components of brain cells which results in reduced cellular metabolic activity, the accumulation of cellular debris, and eventual death of the brain cell. To perform its complex functions, the brain requires a continuous high-energy level. Aging brain cells are inefficient at glucose intake and mitochondrial energy production. This allows for the buildup of cellular debris, eventually destroying brain cells and causing age-related cognitive decline.

Cognodyne contains Acetyl-L-carnitine which enhances Brain Cell Energy while preventing the accumulation of toxic fatty acids in the brain. It helps reverse mitochondrial breakdown, oxidative damage, and memory loss.

A review of controlled clinical studies suggests benefits of Acetyl-L-carnitine in probable Alzheimer’s disease. Compared to placebo, Acetyl-L-carnitine was better at improving memory scores. It slows the progression of Alzheimer’s disease in younger subjects,” researchers concluded from a well-designed study of more than 300 patients, conducted at 24 US clinics.

Acetyl-L-carnitine has shown to counteract several mechanisms of brain cell damage. Studies show Acetyl-L-carnitine protects against temporary cerebral ischemia and protects brain cells against glutamate-induced and ammonia-induced toxicity. As we grow older, circulation to the brain diminishes, setting off pathological events that result in neurological impairment. Acetyl-L-carnitine protects against much of the negative effects aging induces in the brain.

Reports on Acetyl-L-carnitine for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease are paradoxical. A placebo-controlled study at Stanford University School of Medicine showed Alzheimer's patients under age 62 benefited more from Acetyl-L-carnitine than older patients. It concluded that Acetyl-L-carnitine slows the progression of Alzheimer's disease in younger subjects.

Cognodyne contains Phosphatidyl Serine (PS) or Phosphatidylserine, which was shown in research at Stanford University School of Medicine, Vanderbilt University School of Medicine and the finest medical research schools around the world to reverse memory loss by rebuilding brain cell membranes. PS improves the functioning of brain chemistry. It also blocks the memory killing affects of cortisol; thus reversing stress related memory loss. PS has proven to reverse memory loss in countless clinical trials. Research shows PS reverses brain aging by 12 years; in effect making the brain as productive as it was 12 years ago.

Cognodyne also contains Ginkgo Biloba which hundreds of medical studies have shown to quickly increase blood flow to your brain. It improves mood, Regenerates brain cell membranes, Stimulates short-term memory, Increases focus and concentration and prevents age-related memory loss. In short Cognodyne is Mind Power.

Fertilize Your Brain and Eyes

Our brain and our eyes age  faster than the rest of our body,  While we have learned to slow, and even reverse the effects of aging on our bodies, until recently we could do little about our aging brain and eyes.

The brain is composed of fatty gray matter, particularly Phosphatidylserine and Docosahexaenoic acid, or  DHA, which function to maintain the fluidity of the brain cell membranes. DHA also serves to protect the brain from oxidative damage. It maintains proper functioning of nerves, the adrenal gland, sperm, vision and hearing.  DHA, is an omega-3 fatty acid. It is vital for proper brain health and development. In one study, breast-fed infants (breast milk is high in DHA) became  smarter adults than their bottle fed counterparts (formulas) in the U.S. do not contain DHA). Additionally, omega-3 fatty acids have been positively linked to improved cardiovascular health, the prevention of heart attacks, lower blood pressure and much lower cholesterol levels.

DHA is the primary structural fatty acid in the gray matter of the brain, as well as the Retina of the eye. It is absolutely essential for proper mental and visual function. Low levels of DHA are linked to memory dysfunction and memory loss. Alzheimer's and ADD patients have lower levels of DHA than average.

Deficiencies:  Levels of DHA (which is required for brain and eye function and development)  decline as we age. Low fat diets and vegetarianism can further contribute to a DHA deficiency. Red meat, fish and eggs are sources of DHA. However, to reach proper levels of DHA, “proper” supplementation, which until now was near impossible to obtain, is recommended.  To fill this need, most companies offer a “Marine Lipid Concentrate” claiming that since such concentrates ‘contain’ DHA and EPA they should supply a certain amount of DHA and EPA. This is the same thinking that once said the body could obtain all the vitamins needed from food.

The very best method of enhancing DHA levels is by supplementation of DHA extracted from Microalgae, its original and pure source. Fish is not a good or pure a source of DHA. The human body can convert alpha-linolenic acid into small amounts of DHA and EPA (Eicosapentanoic acid) if there is an additional supply  of zinc (zinc functions in delta-6 desaturase, the enzyme which converts alpha-linolenic acid to DHA and EPA).

NEURODYNE® For Memory

Neurodyne nourishes the brain and stimulates the growth of neurons required for learning and forming memory! It helps halt the brain's aging process by increasing the flow of blood to it, increasing the rate of metabolism in brain cells, replacing certain brain chemicals that diminish with age and preserving the longevity and efficiency of brain cells.

RESEARCH: Doctors at LaToor Foundation conducted research with herbal protein monomers compounded into a guarana herbal base. The resulting product is NEURODYNE®, or “Herbal Hydergine”. 

Studies showing that Neurodyne® accomplishes Hydergine benefits without Hydergine’s side effects, state:     

"Among the vital organs of the body, the brain is one of the biggest consumers of oxygen and other important nutrients. And yet it is poorly vascularized­­very few blood vessels permeate the brain proper. A very large supply of blood is sent to the brain and carried back away, but this supply does not actually circulate through the brain tissue."

"To nourish this complete vital organ, nature has developed the glial system, which is evolutionary an even more sophisticated transport mechanism than the bloodstream. The glial system picks up oxygen and nutrients from the carotid artery, and transports them through the entire encephalic (brain) mass. It similarly transports waste products back out of the brain and deposits them into venous receptors, which empty into the jugular vein."

The drug Hydergine and its generic, Dihydroergotxine Mesylate  (DM) proved to improve brain function and memory.  Hydergine is particularly helpful with Alzheimer patients.

DM is such a powerful brain metabolism stabilizer that doctors in France administer it to pre-operative patients, so if cardiac arrest occurs they will have time to handle it before brain damage occurs. The problem with DM is its side effects.

"What healthy glial function does for the brain is analogous to what good cardiovascular function does for the body. Improved glial function accounts for the heightened brain performance that occurs with the use of the recently developed Neurodyne®."

Today, most of those taking "Smart Pills" are younger people concerned about getting older and are looking at this from a preventative and a "competitive edge" point of view. They want to improve their "Brain Power" and slow the aging process in the rest of their bodies as well. Neurodyne® will help them retain what they read and hear in the classroom and in their business life.

DMAE is an acronym for Dimethyl-Amino-Ethanol, commonly (Dimethylaminoethanol). It is a mind and memory enhancement nutrient that has been proven to safely increase a person's level of Choline, the raw material necessary for the brain to produce the all important neurotransmitter Acetylcholine, vital to learning and memory.

According to the lysosome/lipofuscin theory of aging, lysosomes recycle unused proteins, lipids, and mitochondria to remove cellular debris. But over time they accumulate lipofuscin (age or ‘liver spots’ seen on the skin of older people which also accumulate internally) and they become less effective. This results in the build up of cellular debris which in turn slows mental capacity while it accelerates aging. DMAE can help prevent both external and internal ‘age spots’ thereby increasing mental capacity and possibly slowing this accelerated aging process.

ANTI AGING BENEFITS: DMAE also is known and appreciated for its ability to stabilize brain as well as central nervous system cell membranes as they degenerate with advancing age. Most Anti Aging Scientists believe that one process which accelerates aging is this cell-membrane degeneration.

DMAE is chemically similar to Choline, however it has the ability to cross the blood brain barrier faster and more effectively that Choline itself. Once inside the brain cells it is converted into Choline and phosphatidylcholine which goes to work actively rebuilding damaged cell membranes.

Brain cells, as we age, produce waste matter (lipofuscin). Eventually, this cellular refuse blocks cellular reproduction and neurotransmission resulting in a decline in the ability to learn, remember, think clearly, or feel actively alert. DMAE has been shown to actually reduce this build up of lipofuscin in brain cells, which is one more way it is beneficial to mind and memory enhancement.

DEPRESSION: DMAE “has been shown to relieve depression, fight daytime fatigue and provide mental stimulation.” Studies show DMAE may also be beneficial to hyperactive and attention span deficit children. 

A MOOD ELEVATOR PLUS: Besides mind and memory enhancement, there are other obvious benefits to taking DMAE as a daily nutritional supplement. It has been shown to elevate the mood of depressed patients. It is also very useful in fighting daytime fatigue, and providing enduring mental stimulation.

Scientists are also continuing research on hyper active children, and with children that have an attention span deficit. The results of this research indicate that DMAE may well be beneficial to children in both situations.
