HealthHealthWishing You a Season of Joy & Prosperity

As another winter begins to unfold and the year 2014 draws to a close,

we enter a season that wishfully signals prosperity in terms of both

health and finance. Given the typical Canadian climate that overtakes

the country this time of year, taking care of your health and that of

your loved ones becomes an even greater challenge. There is no better

way to maintain good health than with AIM nutrition.

The remaining two months of this year are also a good time to fill up your winter survival

kit with AIM whole-food concentrates and natural health products at 2014 prices. In January

2015, most of the product line will increase in price. The growing cost of ingredients,

materials, and transportation have made these increases necessary so that AIM can continue to

provide nutrition that has been keeping people healthy for over thirty-two years!

Congratulations to Ken and Lanny Donald (Chairman’s Club Directors) for having a three-

fold cause for celebration. Their daughters, Kalina and Jensina, have blessed them with three

healthy grandsons. These baby boys are joyful addition to the entire family.

An incredible variety of traditional celebrations with family and friends are just ahead.

Enjoy them in good health.

Merry Christmas and blessings for the holiday season,

Rose Bird, General Manager AIM Canada and Chartered Herbalist

From the Editor

Lanny Donald has a triple reason to celebrate. On September

8, 2014, her daughter, Kalina, gave birth to twin boys. Four

days later her daughter, Jensina, gave birth to a baby boy.

Three grandchildren within a five-day period for a first-

time grandmother is definitely a joyous event. Both

moms were taking AIM

BarleyLife® during

their pregnancies, so

AIM celebrates the

arrival of three more

BarleyLife babies

in the world.

Joy! Joy!

by Janet Breitkreutz, AIM Director • Sherwood Park, AlbertaSometimes life just sets you on a different course. The unexpected happens and you are left numb. These “bends in the road” as Helen Steiner Rice says in her poem can be a sickness, a job loss, an accident, a relationship break up, a wayward child, a death, whatever events you were not counting on. At the onset, these bends are negative, tough life experiences. Some are just a little detour, yet others jolt us, almost putting us in reverse.

Our family had such a life experience this past January when Darrel, my husband, very unexpectedly lost a job which he very much enjoyed. He thought he would be at this company until he retired, but gone it was. It is a blow to self-esteem, self-worth. He did his utmost best, and he is good at what he does, but when large companies cut back, they walk you out the door; you can’t even go back and pack up your belongings.

Darrel applied for many positions in the industry, but no one had work. Every company was laying people off.

During this time, we really appreciated our AIM income! We have always been grateful for it but due to this “bend in life’s road”, every direct deposit each month from AIM was more precious than it has ever been. AIM cushioned the blow!

This was the first time since Darrel was in post-secondary education that I made more than he did. I was so proud. The steady income from AIM, although it fluctuates every month, is such a blessing! Though AIM’s number one priority is to improve the quality and productivity of life through promoting whole-food concentrates and natural health products, AIM offers a fair, top-of-the-industry commission payout. The good news is that anyone can participate. Anyone can start a home business with AIM. It is affordable, and there are minimal set-up costs.

Darrel and I are not “sales” people. We started using the products and discovered better health, so we began sharing those health benefits with others.

We educated ourselves using sales tools such as datasheets, and one by one our business grew. Caring for others is a passion of ours. We keep a listening ear to the needs of people around us, share datasheets and samples, and then follow up with these contacts.

No one has to wait for the right time to start an AIM business. Just take every opportunity that comes your way, be it at a regular job, at the gym, at your kid’s school, at your retirement community, at your church, or even at the grocery store. Days or even a week or two may go by when there doesn’t seem to be anyone ready to commit to purchasing products. That’s okay. Keep sharing anyways. You will build confidence. If you get a “No” response, that is okay too. People are not rejecting you; it may be that the time is not right. Try to get as many “No” responses as you can as then you are sure to get some people who say “Yes”!

To finish our story on our “life bend” experience, while no one was hiring in the industry, we kept praying intensely. Darrel continued calling employers and then on June 16th, after 5½ months of unemployment, he was employed at the company of his first choice. Thank God for answered prayer!

Though Darrel is back to work, we find many uses for our AIM income each month. A portion of it goes towards helping those less fortunate in our community and abroad. Helping people have a better quality of life is the bonus. We are totally grateful to be recipients of AIM’s “payroll”; AIM is a company of integrity!

AIM Cushions The Blow!AIM Cushions The Blow!

Healthy Weight Lossby June Poswiata, Royal Emerald Director • Bracebridge, Ontario

A short time ago, a lady came to my clinic to inquire about my Weight Loss program. She told me she was an insulin-dependent diabetic and ready to take the pounds off. I told her that she would be on a healthy eating plan with plenty of water and mild to moderate exercise—a regimen that should help her lose 2–4 pounds a week. I also told her that my plan included some nutritional products that would be beneficial:

AIM BarleyLife® for full spectrum nutrition to build healthy cells and boost her immune system

AIM Herbal Fiberblend® to clean, repair, and detoxify her digestive tract

AIM GlucoChrom™ to keep her blood sugars balanced

AIM ProPeas™ to provide alkalinizing protein to build muscle and burn fat

She said she was ready to get started. I tested her pH, which measured 5, indicating a very acidic reading. I reassured her that this would soon change.

In one week my client lost 6 pounds. Her pH measured 6.5, and she was feeling great. Her blood sugar levels had dropped, so she made an appointment to see her doctor. She brought the GlucoChrom along and told the physician about her new program. He was quite impressed and lowered her insulin dosage. She continues to lose inches and weight each week while improving her quality of life.

You may be a physical achiever who plays your favourite sport, works out regularly, or runs marathons. Or you may be someone who is thinking about activating your inner athlete or defying the aging process. Whatever your state of mind and body, you can

significantly improve your physical performance with the new AIM Sports Pack—a three-product combination of Nutrition that works!

AIM Red Rush™ contains concentrated beet juice, each convenient shot delivering 500 mg of vegetable nitrate that your body can convert to nitric oxide (NO). NO is a dynamic molecule that increases blood flow by relaxing and widening arteries, allowing more oxygen to reach your muscles so that you can physically do more than before. You can experience a performance-boosting benefit no matter how old you are or your state of physical fitness.

AIM ProPeas™ provides an alkaline source of meat-free protein from non-GMO peas to help you build lean muscle, boost your metabolism, and increase your energy and endurance. Every body needs protein to build and maintain strong muscles. The more musculature you have, the more your body burns calories, contributing to healthy weight management.

AIM Peak Endurance™ replenishes your body’s anti-aging, energy currency known as adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which increases your energy levels while promoting optimal muscle growth and function. Each serving contains 125 mg of PEAK ATP®, clinically proven to elevate your body’s ATP levels. Peak Endurance also contains all six major electrolytes, vitamin C, and vitamins B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, and B12 for the ideal “sport and energy” drink with only 1 gram of sugar.

Consistent use of all three products in the Sports Pack can help you to naturally improve your athletic performance, fight aging, and maintain wellness.

Higher than normal blood sugar levels are an indication that you may be at risk of developing type 2 diabetes. Being overweight, a lack of physical activity, and a family history of diabetes are some of the risk

factors for this metabolic disorder . The type 2 diabetic does not produce enough insulin or cannot effectively use the insulin that is released by the pancreas. Glucose (sugar) builds up in the blood instead of being channeled into the cells to be used as energy. The long-term effects of elevated blood sugar levels is damage to large and small blood

vessels, which, in turn, can damage organs (such as the eyes, heart, and kidneys) and limbs, including the legs and feet.

After one of our AIM Directors, Darlene Vandermey, began to get frequent requests for a selection of AIM products that would help individuals to naturally deal with diabetes, she called the Vancouver office with a request of her own: Would it be possible to produce a combination pack of products aimed at helping those with this health issue? As a result, AIM Canada is pleased to introduce the Blood Sugar Support Starter Pack, containing four products with effective formulas for maintaining healthy blood sugar levels.

AIM GlucoChrom™ is a combination of two trace minerals (chromium and vanadium) and two herbs (Gymnema sylvestre leaf and bitter melon fruit) that increases the effective action of insulin, moving sugar out of the blood and into cells for use as energy.

AIM fit ’n fiber™ contains psyllium and oat fibre, providing soluble fibre that can help control blood sugar by slowing down the entry of glucose into the bloodstream.

AIMega® delivers an organic flax seed oil source of omega-3 essential fatty acids, which improve insulin action.

AIM BarleyLife® provides natural vitamins, minerals, chlorophyll, antioxidants, phytonutrients, and enzymes from the juice powder of young barley plants, which may help to lower fasting blood sugar levels.

Rising blood sugar levels are directly connected to the rise of diabetes all around the world. Maintaining healthy blood sugar levels helps to prevent the onset of diabetes, and natural maintenance is available with the AIM Blood Sugar Support Starter Pack. Start today!

Don’t Miss Out on

From a young age, I had achalasia. My esophagus muscles would not squeeze food down, so the doctors dilated my lower esophageal sphincter to keep it open and allow food to go into my stomach. This also gave me acid reflux, especially at night when sleeping. Stomach acid that digests food would go up my esophagus. This disease also increases the risk of esophageal cancer.

In 2000, I started taking BarleyLife after finding out about it from Janet Breitkreutz (AIM Director). One night, I awoke in terrible pain from the acid reflux, wondering what could possibly help me. My husband remembered Janet saying that BarleyLife was alkaline, so he gave me some in a bit of water. Drinking it helped to relieve the pain. I continued to

take it on a regular basis.

Further proof of BarleyLife’s effectiveness revealed itself when I had to go for another gastroscopy. The new gastroenterologist was surprised to see that my esophagus was pink and healthy, not full of scar tissue or diseased as she had expected from someone with long-term achalasia. BarleyLife had helped to reduce inflammation and keep my body pH alkaline. My previous gastroenterologist had told me to keep doing what I was doing. This personal health success made it easier to

Testimonials from Gayle Hafner, Group Builder Edmonton, Alberta

Sharing Good Health convince others that products such as BarleyLife could help them as well.

My father, Victor Nadurak (Preferred Member), was diagnosed with stage 4 prostate cancer in 2009. He was told that there was no treatment other than hormone injections as the cancer was too far gone.

I said to him, “You want to fight this, right? Not by putting up your dukes and fighting. You want to fight this by taking some supplements.” He had seen what products like BarleyLife had done for me, so he started his own journey to better health using BarleyLife as well as AIM Herbal Fiberblend® and AIMega®.

After initially trying one or two teaspoons of BarleyLife a day, my father began taking five teaspoons twice a day, and he continues to diligently do so, never missing his supplementation. His last bone scan showed that a spot on his pelvic bone had disappeared. His oncologist had predicted that my father would live for another three years only. That was five years ago.

My father understands that he can never stop taking the BarleyLife. I’ve shared stories with him about people in similar situations that stopped and now they are no longer around.

I’m so grateful to both enjoy and share the benefits of AIM products.
