Unique Selling Points
Bios Life contains a patented mixture of 5 very soluble fibers. To make the fiber matrix form extra fast in your digestive tract, the product contains calcium carbonate that upon reaction with the acid in the stomach forms carbon dioxide. This bubbling enhances the fiber effect on cholesterol. Apart from fiber, Bios Life contains three other cholesterol optimizing ingredients: phytosterols, policosanol, and Chrysanthemum morifolium.
Bios Life further contains a patented form of chromium (ChromeMate) that sensitises insulin, further lowering average glucose levels in the blood.
Bios Life has been studied in a number of state-of-the-art clinical studies, proving that it is effective in lowering LDL cholesterol, increasing HDL cholesterol, lowering triglycerides, and average glucose levels.

Abstract P 284
American Heart Association meeting report:
Fiber supplements may lower cardiovascular risk in type 2 diabetes
WASHINGTON, D.C., April 30 - Fiber supplements lowered "bad" low-density lipoprotein (LDL cholesterol) and increased "good" high-density lipoprotein (HDL cholesterol) in people with type 2 diabetes, according to a study presented at the Sixth Annual Conference on Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis and Vascular Biology.
Type 2 diabetes occurs when the body is unable to produce or properly use insulin to turn food into energy. Heart disease is the leading cause of diabetes-related deaths. According to the most recent statistics published by the American Heart Association, half of all diabetics have high cholesterol, which is a major risk factor for heart disease.
Supplements that increase dietary fiber have been shown to reduce blood cholesterol levels, which led researchers at Unicity International in Orem, Utah to study its effect on type 2 diabetes.
"The remarkable observation is that this works on two sides: it decreased LDL and increased HDL by significant amounts at 90 days," said the study's lead author, Peter J. Verdegem, Ph.D., chief science officer at Unicity International. "This approach is virtually free of side effects. It opens up an alternative treatment option."
The study is one of the first to examine the effect of fiber in heart disease risk reduction for type 2 diabetes, said Verdegem.
The 78 participants in the open label trial had type 2 diabetes and an average age of 59 years. Total blood cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL and HDL were measured at baseline and again at 90 days.
Cholesterol is a soft, waxy fat that is used by the body to form cell membranes and perform other important functions. Lipoproteins transport cholesterol through the body. LDL escorts cholesterol through the circulatory system; HDL carries it to the liver where it it can be eliminated.
Elevated cholesterol levels can raise the risk of hard deposits called plaques forming in the arteries, which likewise increases the risk of heart attack and stroke. LDL levels of 160 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) and above are considered high.
Soluble fiber has been shown to help lower blood cholesterol levels. However, most adults in the United States do not consume enough dietary fiber. According to the American Heart Association, average daily intake for adults is 15 grams, whereas 25 to 30 grams of fiber is recommended.
"The product was designed to fill that gap between the real intake and the advised intake," Verdegem said.
Study participants received 10 to 15 grams of a fiber supplement called BiosLife 2, an over-the-counter product manufactured by Unicity International. The drink contains both soluble and insoluble fiber from guar gum, gum arabic, locust bean gum, pectin and oat fiber dispersed in calcium carbonate. It was administered in five-gram doses two to three times daily five to 10 minutes before eating.
"When it is in the intestines, the fiber decreases reabsorption of cholesterol from a meal," said Verdegem.
At the end of the study period, total cholesterol had dropped from 215 mg/dL to 184 mg/dL, a decrease of 14.4 percent. Triglycercides also improved. Levels dropped from 299 mg/dL to 257 mg/dL, a decrease of 14.0 percent.
LDL decreased from 129 mg/dL to 92 mg/dL--a 28.7 percent improvement. HDL rose from 43 mg/dL to 55 mg/dL--a 21.8 percent increase.
"With a normal pharmaceutical intervention you see a decrease in LDL but not an increase in HDL to these levels," Verdegem said. "It is usually only a one-sided effect."
Statin drugs are among the most commonly used cholesterol-lowering medications. Verdegem said the study demonstrates that dietary fiber supplements are an alternative to statins for people with moderately high cholesterol who are unable or unwilling to take statins.

OmegaLife-3
INGREDIENTS:
Fish and fish oil receive increasing amounts of media attention as scientific evidence continues to provide information on their potential health benefits, the most notable being their ability to support normal heart function. In fact, the heart-health benefits of fish oil are so compelling, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has stated that, "Supportive but not conclusive research shows that consumption of EPA and DHA omega-3 fatty acids may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease."
In addition to its profound heart-health benefits, fish oil also plays a fundamental role in the development and maintenance of brain and nervous functions such as preservation of memory and mental clarity.
Who Should Use This Product?
Special groups that will benefit particularly from Omega Life 3 are:
— persons with elevated risk for heart disease due to life style
— persons with elevated risk for heart disease due to family history
— persons with inflammatory concerns such as arthritis, asthma
— persons with ADD and dyslexia
— persons with depression
Unique Selling Points
Omega Life 3 provides pharmaceutical grade fish oil, which has been molecularly distilled. This means it is completely free of any heavy metal contamination that may be present in lower quality oils. The product features high amounts of the omega - 3 fatty acids EPA and DHA. These oils are protected by natural vitamin E. Orange oil has been added to reduce the fishy afterburb.

Daily Produce 24
Experts agree that adults should eat at least five daily servings of fruits and vegetables-and for optimal health benefits, they need seven to nine daily servings. However, the U.S. National Cancer Institute and National Research Council have found that only nine percent of adults achieve the five-serving daily minimum. Even when we manage to eat enough fruits and vegetables, modern methods of harvesting, processing, and cooking often diminish their nutritional value.
Fruits and vegetables contain irreplaceable combinations of powerful phytonutrients that are essential to good health. It's impossible to pack all the nutrition of fresh fruits and vegetables into a capsule, and no supplement can completely replace fruits and vegetables in the diet. However, new scientific advances allow us to better encapsulate many of the nutrients in fruits and vegetables to help bridge the gap in the modern diet.
Who Should Use This Product?
Special groups that will benefit particularly from DP24 are:
— persons that eat unhealthy
— persons that need a boost in their immune system
— children
— persons with extra antioxidant requirements, such as smokers, and persons with an physical active life style.
Unique Selling Points
Daily Produce 24 is a whole food nutrition product combining 24 different fruits and vegetables. The product is created using flash glancing, a technology that uses absolutely no heat, so that all phytonutrients are present in the product in their full potency. The fresh crops are concentrated by a factor 36. DP 24 has a very high ORAC value, indicating its antioxidant power.
DP24 has been studied in relationship to its antioxidant potential. The study was presented at the 2004 Experimental Biology meeting by J.C. Young et al. with title “The Effect of Soluble Fiber on Glucose Tolerance and
Antioxidant Status in Insulin-Resistance Rats
