Nutrition that works to keep you well!

From the Editor

If you think of the incredible choices for green nutrition that nature provides, you might wonder why barley grass is at the top of the list. It was the research and analysis of hundreds of different types of leafy greens by Dr. Yoshihide Hagiwara that determined barley grass contains the widest spectrum of nutrients from any single green source on the face of the earth. This discovery led to the creation of AIM BarleyLife®.

When young barley plants are in the early stage of growth, they are more similar to vegetables than to grains. Harvested at this “vegetable” stage, barley leaves are jam-packed with natural nutrients that nurture good health.

The secret to providing BarleyLife’s complete source of nutrition for human consumption is using a natural juicing method that removes the indigestible fibre that encases the nutrients. Then the nutrient-rich green juice is low-temperature dried into a powder, providing concentrated nutrition that is easily absorbed by the body.

BARLEYLIFE® THE PERFECT SUPERFOOD!

HeadlinesHealthHealthMembers continually communicate that AIM products are the finest and that our company is the best. Such feelings mean so much to The AIM Companies™ since they come from those who are the foundation of what AIM represents: Nutrition, Opportunity, Success.

These strong points shared by our Members encourage others to choose AIM in a competitive marketplace. The end result ... helping others to maintain good health is a noble ambition that our Members can be truly proud of achieving.

March is Nutrition Month. Our whole-food powders and natural health products deliver the supplemental nutrients the body requires for optimal health. March also announces the arrival of spring ... and with it comes seasonal allergies for many people across Canada. AIM nutrition can help (see page 4).

April is Cancer Awareness Month. More and more research indicates the benefits of plant-based nutrition for providing cancer-fighting phytonutrients. Many AIM products provide a concentration of natural phytonutrients.

In the Vancouver office, we are constantly looking to improve Health Headlines. If you have ideas for articles, columns, testimonials, etc., please e-mail aimcanada@aimintl.com or call 1-888-343-9977.

AIM business builders can now sell to privately owned retail establishments. New open doors are all around you, such as gyms, health food stores, nail salons, and spas. It is important to know how to approach these small businesses.

Be prepared! It works as a scout motto, and it will work for your AIM business.

More to the point, being prepared makes everything easier.

Here are some initial steps to prepare you for success:

Create a List of Retailers and Set Your Target • Go through your personal contacts. • Search the Yellow Pages or go online to find

businesses around you. • List independent retailers, not chain stores or

mass retailers (like the big box stores).

Develop a Presentation• Write a sales pitch that can fit into a single

sentence.• Begin with a story that makes the prospective

client want to hear more.• Get a feel for your audience. • Know their needs and focus on specific AIM

products that serve those needs (e.g., Sports Pack for a gym, Mag-nificence for a spa, natural health products with NPNs for a health food store, etc).

Show Them the Money• Retailers need to make a profit. • Let them know all of the profitable options: Buy at wholesale prices and mark up to retail Volume discounts (5 – 10%) AMR discounts (5 – 10%) 6-pack savings AIM Member Income Plan

Both deliver activating benefits no matter your game or how many years you have been alive. But they make you livelier in different ways because of two key ingredients: ATP in AIM Peak Endurance™ and nitrate in AIM Red Rush™.

Peak Endurance provides a molecular source of energy known commonly as ATP: adenosine triphosphate (125 mg per serving). Your body naturally produces ATP within cells (intracellular) as its primary energy source. Peak Endurance tops up your reserves with extracellular ATP in the blood, providing improved blood flow and giving your body added energy and support for its various functions that include:

• Controlling muscle response • Increasing muscle strength• Promoting muscle recovery • Building new muscle tissue

One shot of Red Rush delivers 500 mg of vegetable nitrate from concentrated beet juice. Your body converts this into nitric oxide, which relaxes and widens your arteries, resulting in improved circulation. With enhanced blood flow, you get improved oxygen delivery to your muscles. That’s how athletes improve their performance and excel at what they do because energy is a huge part of that delivered oxygen.

The belief has always been that the amount of energy extracted from muscle oxygen is constant. No known substance can increase it. However, a study published in the Journal of Applied Physiology (2009) determined that nitric oxide could do just that, allowing test bike riders to do the same amount of work with less oxygen after drinking beet juice.

The Red Rush nitric oxide boost:

• Maximizes oxygen utilization• Enhances muscle function• Increases stamina • Elevates physical performance

With ATP being your body’s source of energy and nitric oxide being a major factor in the energy it takes to make your muscles work optimally, Peak Endurance and Red Rush can go hand in hand in increasing your strength, endurance, and recovery.

Pain Relief from BarleyLifeNatural vs SyntheticI had been experiencing problems with back pain, so I went to see my doctor. Two weeks after having x-rays done at a hospital, it was confirmed that I had osteoarthritis in my tailbone. My physician suggested that I take a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). It helped to relieve the severe pain only the first time I tried it, so I quit taking it.

I had started taking one daily teaspoon of AIM BarleyLife® before having the x-rays. After the prescribed drug stopped working, I decided to increase my BarleyLife to five teaspoons daily. I did this for over a year and no more pain. I haven’t been back to see my doctor. I’m feeling good!

Don’t Miss Out on

If you have seasonal allergies, you know how aggravating they can be. With spring approaching, AIM offers preventive nutrition to avoid the sneezing, watery eyes, stuffy nose and other symptoms associated with allergy season.

AIM LeafGreens™

The faba bean, field pea, and spinach leaves in LeafGreens contain quercetin, a flavonoid that exhibits antioxidant and anti-allergic activities. By inhibiting the body’s production and release of histamines—one of the chemical substances that triggers allergy symptoms—quercetin can help relieve allergies.

AIMega®

Inflammation is the body’s natural response to seasonal allergens. Reducing inflammation is just one of the many benefits of the omega-3 essential fatty acids in AIMega.

AIM Proancynol® 2000The wealth of antioxidants,

especially N-acetylcysteine, in Proancynol 2000 can help clear inflamed airways, reducing mucous and helping you to breathe easier.

AIM Frame Essentials®

Glucosamine in Frame Essentials helps to regulate mucous secretion and anti-inflammatory boswellia has been shown to reduce asthma symptoms.

AIM Mag-nificence™

Magnesium is a trace mineral that reduces histamine release and inflammation of the airways and lungs. Mag-nificence™ crystals, lotion, and spray can increase your magnesium levels through absorption by the skin.

Use these natural products weeks before allergy season begins to help prevent allergic reactions.
