3T elomeres are tiny caps on the end of DNA strands.

When cells divide and replicate these long strands of DNA, the telomere cap is snipped, a process that

is believed to protect the rest of the DNA but leaves an increasingly abbreviated telomere. Eventually, if a cell’s telomeres become too short, the cell ‘‘either dies or enters a kind of suspended state,’’ says Stephen Roth, an associate professor of kinesiology at the University of Maryland.1 Like the plastic tip that keeps the end of your shoe lace from becoming unravelled and frayed, telomere caps on the end of DNA provide stability and protection to these delicate strands of genetic material, and nowhere is this more significant than in adult stem cells.

Stem cells are the master cells in your body. They are the prime source from which all tissues, organs, and flesh develop. They are the ultimate source of replacement and repair, of healing and hope, as you age. The ability of stem cells to continue to live, divide and reproduce is at the centre of healthy aging.

After many years of research and scientif ic investigation, Dr. Villeponteau offers cutting edge insights and practical solutions for all those who wish to extend youthfulness well into their Zoomer years. “There are a lot of misconceptions out there,” Dr. Villeponteau

says. “Aging isn’t just about wearing out. It’s more like a boat that has many holes and is taking on water – there are many genes involved in the aging process and any solution needs to address as many holes as possible in order to address the multitude of shifts in the genes.”

He wants to ensure one important message is conveyed: There is no magic potion that will extend human life. He stresses the importance of healthy lifestyle habits such as proper rest, exercise and nutrition as part of a holistic anti-aging regime. But these are modest words from a scientist spear-heading some of the most exciting research ever conducted into extending human longevity with natural supplementation.

“Flies share a strong genetic resemblance to humans and, like us, they most commonly die of cardiovascular disease,” Dr. Villeponteau explains. His first clinical trial involved approximately 1,500 flies, and studied the impact of natural nutritional compounds on their lifespan. The results were quite astounding, demonstrating a twenty percent increase in lifespan. Previously published studies of similar experiments have only ever achieved results half that amount.

“Creating an internal environment that supports

Stem Cells:One of the Secrets of Youth— A Secret No More.

Science has made enormous advances in our understanding of human aging, and an exciting aspect of this new information is knowing that each individual has a great deal of influence over his or her own longevity—says Dr. Bryant Villeponteau, Ph.D., and internationally recognized expert in aging, with a focus on cellular senescence and gene regulation. Dr. Villeponteau led a team of scientists that cloned human telomerase. “Most scientists in the aging field now accept telomere length as a reliable marker of cellular age,” he continues...

PUBLIC NOTICE

Zwell wil l soon be launching StemCell 100TM in Canada, a new 100% drug-free natural health product that incorporates much of the science outlined in this article. It is currently in the approval process with Health Canada.

Upon approval, Zwell will begin to market the product. The features and performance of the product will be communicated in detail, in accordance with Health Canada’s approval.

Because of the interest in stem cell research and in the emergence of new products based on the science, Zwell anticipates a shortage of StemCell 100TM, particularly in the initial stages. We may have difficulty filling demand.

FOR THAT REASON, WE ARE INVITING

INTERESTED PERSONS TO REGISTER NOW.

If you register, you will receive ongoing information and updates, not only on the progress of StemCell 100TM’s release to the market, but also on stem cell research itself – new discoveries, emerging science, and other new products. This information will be sent to you via email.

You will also be placed on the priority list for StemCell 100TM purchasing.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

Your registration does not obligate you in any way to purchase StemCell 100TM. It is simply an indication of your interest in the topic, and your desire to be on our priority list should you wish to make a purchase. There is NO COST to do this.

healthy cells through specific natural compounds, diet, exercise, proper rest and stress management can help promote youthful cells, regardless of chronological age”, Dr. Villeponteau shares.

Based on this holistic view of aging, Dr. Villeponteau set out to create tools to help Zoomers protect their stem cells and telomeres, and encourage a biologically youthful body, regardless of chronological age. Part of this work includes a revolutionary natural health product utilizing pharmaceutical-grade natural ingredients to deliver targeted traditional medicines to stem cells and their niche environments. This new product, appropriately called StemCell 100TM (named after the goal of many Zoomers to live well for a century and beyond), represents the perfect marriage between nature’s proven solutions and modern scientific research, and it was this formulation that extended the lifespan of his flies in the lab.

StemCell 100TM is a patent-pending proprietary blend of four highly purified herbal extracts derived from Astragalus membranaceus, Pterocarpus marsupium, Camellia sinensis, and Pinus Massoniana. It is clinically tested, and acts on biochemical pathways to literally help slow the aging process and counter chronic challenges.

Influencing adult stem cells is tricky business. Too much stimulation can deplete these precious resources prematurely or trigger unwanted cellular division and tumour growth. The genius of StemCell 100TM is that it does not stimulate the stem cells to divide or differentiate directly, but by encouraging an ideal environment or “niche” for adult stem cells, StemCell 100TM is able to protect, nourish and nurture the life and function of regenerative adult stem cells. Doing this ensures they can be ready and capable when your body signals them to replace and repair old, damaged, or dead cells. Dr. Villeponteau has created a way to support the niche where adult stem cells reside until called to action, protecting the longevity and vitality of the stem cell by influencing the environment in which it lives – a safe, effective natural approach.

In this way, you are truly able to renew and rejuvenate from the inside out for your whole life. Chronological age is not a dictator of biological age. Studies have shown that on a cellular level, poor lifestyle choices can create old and worn out cells in “young” people, just as positive choices can keep a senior’s DNA and telomeres looking youthful well into their Zoomer years.2

ZWELLNESS FEEDBACK

WHAT’S SO BAD ABOUTRELYING ON GLUCOSAMINEFOR JOINT PAIN?

Nothing at all — if you only want to do half a jobBut here’s the problem. While glucosamine may provide tempo-rary relief from the pain, it doesn’t attack the underlying cause: inflammation.You can’t deal with joint pain without dealing with inflammation. That’s because inflammation not only causes the pain, but it also blocks medications from getting through and prevents the body from activating its own repair process.Is there a natural way to relieve pain and reduce inflammation at the same time? AbsolutelyIt’s Reflexir® — a unique com-pound of two proven natural ingredients, cat’s claw and maca root, that actually help silence the genes that trigger inflamma-tion. Not only is pain relieved, but help for the underlying causes is also provided.Why settle for temporary relief of pain when you can get to the root of the problem?Get better joint health with Reflexir® instead...

I regarded your product with a great deal of skepticism as I'm pushing

eighty and have had a fair bit of joint problems. Other products with the

same claims as you make have been useless. My partner and I have been

taking your pills for two months. Her joint pains disappeared after two

weeks; mine took six weeks before easing some. But they have indeed

eased. And believe me that is NICE.

Mike S. - Trail, BC

I would like to take this opportunity to tell you how absolutely delighted

I am with Reflexir. I have been taking heavy doses of Ibuprofen in one form

or another for several years… Since I started taking Reflexir I have

not had to take Ibuprofen at all. In addition I have been able to resume

my hour-long daily walks. Totally impossible before taking Reflexir.

Margaret R. - Windsor, ON

Just wanted to say how pleased I am with Reflexir. I am so thankful that we found you online. Could hardly walk back in May and now after using only 4 bottles of Reflexir, I am almost back

to normal. Needless to say I am golfing and walking the courses again…

without Reflexir, I don't think I could have done it.

Thanks again for this wonderful product.

If you are living with the challenge of erectile dysfunction (ED) it is important to understand that there is much more than your sexual prowess at stake. ED is the canary in the coal mine of your entire vascular system, and that dysfunction in the penile vessels is an undeniable predictor of the state of health in your entire body, even for those men who have no other common risk factors for heart disease such as high cholesterol, diabetes, smoking and high blood pressure. Research has shown that the number one cause of ED is atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries) and if you’re experiencing ED, statistics indicate that your risk of heart disease increases by 58%.

S tudies have shown that at the first signs of erectile dysfunction, men have about 3 years before

a cardiovascular event is likely to present. That means at the first sign of erectile difficulty a man has a very important and potentially critical choice to make. Take a pill to eke out erections for about 3 years until heart problems may make getting healthier, even staying alive, more important than sex. Or be grateful for the forewarning, make a choice to get truly healthy and enjoy a natural strong sex drive and spontaneous erections for bonding and pleasure that can last a lifetime. Good Sex is Good for You

Good sex has many total health benefits, such as boosting the immune system, protecting against heart disease, improving circulation, and lowering blood pressure for at least a week. That’s just for starters! Studies have shown that in middle-aged men, natural orgasms twice per week can cut the risk of death by heart attack and other causes in half, compared to men of the same age who have orgasms less than once per month. The benefits of sex

for the men’s female partners is also worth noting. Either way you look at it, sex is part of healthy aging!

But these benefits don’t apply if you’re using ED drugs to force an erection. Your slowly compromised vascular system is not helped when an erection is forced with medication and in fact, this type of practise can cause tremendous harm in the body such as optic nerve stroke, creating permanent blindness, negatively impacting hearing, and can even lead to death from heart attack or stroke. Be Grateful for the Erection Connection

If your arteries are becoming hardened and narrow, the negative effects will appear in the smaller capillaries first, the exact type of tiny vessels in the penis that become engorged with blood to create an erection. ED is an early warning that your vascular health is out of balance. Consider problems getting and maintaining erections a helpful indicator, an early warning signal of the state of your total body health and heed the walk-up call... Making the choice to improve your total

well-being will improve your love life for a longer, happier fulfilling life. Taking a pill to pray for an erection can never offer you these health benefits, but it does potentially put you in harm’s way.Here are a few of my favourite science-based, all-natural recommendations to enhance total body health including sexual libido and function

Eat well—Live well Achieving and maintaining a healthy body weight is an essential part of healthy sexual function. Studies indicate that being overweight can increase your risk of ED 30-90% compared with men of their ideal weight. If you tend to carry your weight around the mid-section and have a waist circumference of 42 inches or greater, you will also have a 50% greater risk of erectile dysfunction. Stay slim for sex and your best at every age.

A complete meal, and all the vitamins and minerals you need daily— in two scoopsSUPER FOOD NEWS!

Regaining EnergyE ven in the absence of common degenerative

conditions such as cardiovascular disease and diabetes, many Zoomers find themselves frequently

battling symptoms of fatigue, including loss of general physical stamina, diminished emotional wellness, increased body pain, loss of mental stamina and general lack of vitality. This consistent feeling of low energy often leads to limited exercise opportunities, leading to deconditioning, undesirable body mass index values and down-regulated energy production pathways. This combination of physical attributes perpetuates inactivity and contributes to the fatigue often experienced by the Zoomer population.1

The scenario is a classic case of the tail wagging the dog: fatigue leads to less activity which leads to more fatigue. But don’t be fooled, commonly experienced fatigue has not resulted in a pack of Zombie-like Zoomers, willing to submit quietly to their fate. Most Zoomers are dis-content to live in this low-energy state because this is the time of life when things promise to get really good. You are a little older and a lot wiser and now is the time to do all those things you dreamed of doing when you “grew up”. Feeling lack lustre just isn’t going to cut it in your Zoomer years. So what is a Zoomer to do?

More than 80% of people over 50 say that regaining their energy level is their main reason for wanting to improve their nutrition choices – this could very well be you. Natural remedies can be very useful in

supplementing your body’s own energy systems and supporting consistent feelings of vitality. Of course, there is no magic, pill, potion or powder that will do the job alone. Instead, a combination of proper nutrition, appropriate exercise, adequate rest and relaxation, as well as meaningful connection, all make for essential ingredients in the recipe for exceptional longevity and vitality.

Below are a few key energy zappers to beware of and what you can do to avoid these common pitfalls.

Carry Your Right Weight It sounds easy enough – eat well. But simply “eating healthy” isn’t as simple as it sounds, otherwise 25% of Canadian adults wouldn’t currently be struggling with obesity.2 Carrying excess weight takes energy, draining your vitality and setting the stage for premature degeneration. In the New England Journal of Medicine, a recently published cohort study of over 500,000 AARP members between the ages of 50 and 71 conducted over a ten year period reports an undeniable link between obesity and increased risk of death two to three times greater than healthy weighted participants of the same age.

Food Is Your Fuel The flip side of the obesity coin is a dangerous misconception that in order to lose weight or maintain a healthy body weight Zoomers must dramatically cut calories and subsist on tiny, unsatisfying food portions. This can lead to dangerous malnutrition. Even in an abundant first-world country like Canada, a disturbing number of Zoomers, particularly the over 65 crowd, are severely lacking in vital nutrients. Without the raw materials needed to repair, rebuild and rejuvenate every part of the body, loss of energy is inevitable.

A complete meal, and all the vitamins and minerals you need daily— in two scoopsSUPER FOOD NEWS!

Introducing CRON Originating from the science of anti-aging medicine, the CRON diet (Calorie Restriction with Optimal Nutrition) is one of the most common-sense ways to eat for total body health and vitality. The typical Canadian diet consists primarily of foods high in calories and low in nutrients which leads to excess body fat, degeneration and low energy. CRON eating means choosing foods that offer the biggest nutritional bang for your caloric buck. For example, you could spend 200 calories by eating 1 small order of French fries and receive next to no health-promoting nutrients. Or for the same amount of calories, you can eat 10 cups of broccoli, packed with vitamins, minerals, fibre and disease-fighting plant compounds. When you choose foods rich in nutrients and naturally low in calories there is no need to skimp, starve, measure or weigh every mouthful because your body will become a vital, efficient machine, using the good fuel you are providing to energize you each and every day.

Bring on Breakfast For most Zoomers, the lowest grades are scored at breakfast. This is an important short-coming to address because research has shown that eating breakfast every day is of the utmost importance for the long-term maintenance of healthy body weight.3 Further studies go on to demonstrate that a balanced breakfast with equal amounts (in grams) of carbohydrate and protein-rich foods will stabilize blood sugar, contribute to fewer daytime cravings and promote a leaner body composition.4

Supplement For many, the idea of eating well is good in theory, but when faced with the task of consuming 10 cups of broccoli daily or cooking eggs every morning for a protein rich breakfast, the idea seldom translates well into consistent, real-life action. This is where good quality, all-natural supplements can come in handy, often bridging the gap between what we “should do” and what we actually will do every day. Supermeal from Zwell is an all-natural, high quality, high-potency meal replacement specifically designed for Zoomers that packs the nutrients of 10 servings of fruits and veggies into one simple powder. Enhanced with digestive enzymes and probiotics, Supermeal is easily digested and absorbed so you can be certain your body is accessing all of the nutrients inside. With a full spectrum of vitamins, minerals and anti-oxidants, one serving of Supermeal provides a balanced breakfast containing a full serving of vegetarian protein, low-glycemic carbohydrates and healthy

Eating breakfast everyday is key

to maintaining a healthy body weight!

fats, all-in-one. Developed on the principles of the CRON diet, Supermeal is nutrient rich in a low-calorie format.

Specially Made for Zoomers Supermeal contains D-Ribose by Bioenergy. Ribose is a tiny molecule which acts as the structural back-bone of ATP, a co-enzyme that is responsible for the metabolism of cells. In the body, ATP is known as “energy currency” and is involved in hundreds of biochemical reactions every day. When Ribose becomes depleted through advanced age or energy expenditure, the result can manifest as feelings of fatigue, leaving you zapped of energy. Clinical trials are demonstrating that simple supplementation with D-Ribose daily can provide tremendous feelings of vitality in the Zoomer population. By “topping up” your body’s natural reserves of Ribose, you are essentially providing every cell of your body, including the heart, lungs and muscle tissue, with extra energy for you to perform whatever activity you like.

Supermeal contains the quantity and quality of D-Ribose shown in clinical trials to provide the greatest results for Zoomers. After a two week trial with daily supplementation of patented D-Ribose, study participants reported greater feelings of vitality and demonstrated improved exercise recovery and better aerobic fitness, meaning they were able to engage in more activity while using less oxygen and delaying fatigue.5

The Facts on FatsOmega-3 fatty acids are the “good fats” your body needs for proper metabolic functioning but that it can’t produce, so these fats must be obtained from diet and supplementation. The nutritionally important and active forms of omega-3 fats include EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid). Fish oil is rich in both of these essential compounds.

High doses of fish oil can help regulate inflammatory compounds in the body and consequently assist in the treatment of conditions like arthritis, cystitis, and inflammatory bowel disease.

In clinical trials, omega-3 fish oil from Krill reduced arthritis pain by 29% and stiffness by 20% in just 4 weeks.

An increasing number of studies provide evidence that omega-3 fats can improve one’s blood lipid levels (cholesterol and triglycerides), lower blood pressure, stabilize heart rhythm, decrease the risk of coronary

heart disease and even reduce the risk of sudden cardiac death.

Further studies have shown that omega-3 fish oils help prevent three of the most common forms of cancer: breast, colon and prostate. Science tells us that omega-3 fats accomplish this in three ways – by stopping the alteration from a normal healthy cell to a cancerous one, by inhibiting unwanted cellular growth and by causing cell death to cancerous cells.

By Jill Hillhouse, BPHE, RNCP with Dr. Kelly Upcott, ND

Remember when you were a kid and mom made you take a tablespoon of cod liver oil daily? Well, fish oil supplements have come a long way since then as far as taste, quality and scientific research. Studies are published almost daily, as the medical community discovers more and more of the extraordinary benefits for Zoomers provided by Omega-3 fish oil.

O m e g a - 3 f a t s a re h i g h l y concentrated in the brain, as 60% of the brain’s weight comes from fat. High doses of fish oil can help maintain adequate levels of the neurotransmitters dopamine and serotonin, thereby reducing depression, dementia and the development of Parkinson’s disease.

Other documented benefits of fish oil supplementation for Zoomers are: healthier hair, stronger nails, more radiant skin, improved metabolism and more “get up and go”.

Polyunsaturated fats found in common cooking oils are mostly what are known as omega-6 fatty acids. While the metabolic products of omega-6 acids promote inflammation, blood clotting, and tumour growth, the omega-3 fish

oils help reduce platelet stickiness and systemic inflammation.

The typ ica l Canadian d iet generally contains at least 20 times more omega-6 than omega-3 fatty acids, and it’s estimated that 85% of people in the Western world are deficient in omega-3. What type and how much should I take?

Many people take flax oil in the hopes of achieving the anti-inflammatory benefits of the omega-3 fish oils but it’s important to know that while ALA from flax can be converted to EPA and DHA, the conversion is very weak (less than 10%) and declines with age.

In order to achieve the benefits of EPA and DHA intake, supplement-ation from cold water fish is most beneficial.

Be advised, not all fish oil supple-ments are of the same quality. Be sure that your supplementary fish oil is pharmaceutical-grade. Low-grade fish oil may cause gastro-intestinal problems like bloating and diarrhoea, and often leave a bad taste in the mouth, not to mention they may contain mercury, PCB’s and DDT.

Pharmaceutical-grade fish oils are typically more expensive but worth every penny. Your body and brain deserve nothing less.

In clinical trials, omega-3 fish oil from Krill reduced arthritis

pain by 29% and stiffness by 20%

in just 4 weeks

There’s an old familiar saying for many of us in our 50’s, 60’s and 70’s – one our parents and grandparents often provided as advice when we were making decisions in our youth – An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. It makes sense. If you don’t want your car to deteriorate rapidly, do preventative maintenance, and avoid the inevitable outcome of a costly repair bill and chronic unreliability of your car. Why is the same advice not

followed when it comes to the way governments spend tax dollars on our health? Canadian Healthcare Spending is out of balance – Prevention versus Sickcare

In Ontario, for example, government health care spending was $72 Billion in 2009, while the 2010 budget for illness prevention (formally called “Health Promotion”) is $766 Million. That’s 1% on illness prevention, and 99% on illness treatment. Sure, it costs more to treat someone who’s ill, but does this balance of spending seem right to you? In an economic report released this summer from TD Bank, they estimate that by 2030, 70% of all government tax revenue could be going towards health care – up from the current 46%. This would cripple us financially, and it’s the baby boomer generation that would be hardest hit. The report goes on to say, “Ultimately, the most effective way of lowering cost... will be to ensure that fewer people are in need of expensive care.”

We can and must do something now.It’s not all bad news

British Columbia is taking the lead in promoting better lifestyles. The Ministry for Healthy Living & Sport created an ActNow program to proactively encourage healthy lifestyles, including ActNow Seniors, focusing on healthy eating, physical activity, independent living and smoking cessation. This approach is proven to work. Evidence indicates 15% of heart disease, 19% of stroke, 10% of hypertension, 14% of colon cancer, 11% of breast cancer, 16% of Type 2 Diabetes and 18% of osteoporosis can be attributed to physical inactivity. In a consulting report to the government, it’s estimated that reducing inactivity levels by 10% would save the government $49 Million each year. Although the BC government appears to have the right strategy, the financial structure, again, seems to fall short, with $15 Billion in provincial health care spending, and only

$56 Million for Healthy Living – it’s still a 99:1 ratio for cure versus prevention.The Medical Industrial Complex

It’s well known the structure of an activity or business drives a corresponding behaviour. In Ontario, for example, the vast majority of health care spending (65%) goes to drugs (9%), hospitals (33%) and physicians (23%). It is a multi-billion dollar industry, supported by your tax dollars, that prospers when more people are ill, not healthy (... think about it). It’s a very valid industry from which so much good has come, yet its value is severely diminishing relative to the investment that continues to be made in it, and relative to where the real health concern now lies. Our lifestyle choices and the uncontrolled seepage of over-processed, marginally nutritious food in our diet has created an epidemic of health issues, particularly for boomers, that cannot be cured with drugs or surgery. The current health infrastructure is perfect for addressing acute, life threatening situations (like the need for heart surgery) but, creating a culture, an economy and government policy that rewards and promotes good lifestyle choices and better nutrition will prevent more heart attacks than cardiac procedures ever will. Experts suggest that 10 years of promoting and servicing illness prevention could reverse the current negative health trends in North America.

You Control the “Ounce of Prevention”If big business – and to an extent, big government – control the reigns when you become sick (the “Pound of

Cure”), who controls the “Ounce of Prevention” for avoiding illness? That would be you. Your choice to make better lifestyle choices, and to demand your government re-balance its spending away from the Industrial Medical Complex and into illness prevention programs, policies and incentives will make more people healthy, save money and provide a sustainable health care system for the aged, the boomers and the generations that follow. You have the control – it’s your voice and your choice. Use it to support, maybe demand,

an “Ounce of Prevention”.

Exercise for great Erections Exercise is an essential element in maintaining great circulation and vascular health. Any amount of exercise helps, the more consistent the better. Be regular with your exercise routine for best results. Interval training gives some of the best health results with the least amount of time! If you are riding a bike, whether outdoors or in the gym, get yourself a proper male bike seat and /or a good pair of well-padded bike shorts, as injury to the perineal area (just forward of the anus) can contribute to erectile dysfunction.

Address the Stress Stress impacts every aspect of your body, accelerating health problems and preventing proper healing. The physiological changes induced by prolonged stress can contribute to ED, or worse!

Butt Out It takes as little as 2 cigarettes per day to negatively impact sexual health. Get serious, quit now!

Consider all-natural botanicals. There are several all-natural botanicals that have been used for centuries in traditional healing to promote sexual health and function and have been proven by modern science to be effective, safe and free from dangerous side effects.

Tribulus terrestris fruit extract has been used in ancient healing for its sexual enhancing effects and anti-aging benefits. Modern studies show that a phytochemical (plant compound) in Tribulus terrestris is a precursor to the male hormone DHEA, providing support to the kidney, heart and liver functions and directly enhancing sexual desire and erection. I recommend 400mg daily, with foodButea superb root has been revered in Thailand as an enhancer of erectile function and fertility and recent US studies have confirmed this belief. In studies with ED-afflicted volunteers, after 3 months of taking a daily dose of 250mg Butea, 82.4% of patients enjoyed significant improvement in erectile function and performance. I recommend 250mg dailyPanax ginseng (Korean Red Ginseng) is well known for its ability to improve erectile function, even in men suffering with ED. After 8 weeks of taking a 500mg capsule of Panax ginseng daily, 60% of patients experienced significant improvement in erectile function, sexual desire and intercourse satisfaction versus 20% in the placebo group. Another study reports that 67% of patients taking Panax ginseng experienced improved erections versus no change in the placebo group. I recommend 200 to 300 mg twice daily

You may look for each of these botanicals separately or you may choose a product that offers them in combination. The smart choice in this category is 112 Degrees. It is a proprietary formula that contains all three of the botanicals recommended above, as well as several other targeted nutrients which can work synergistically in the body to enhance sexual desire and function while providing a whole-body approach to health and wellness.

The Real Benefit of the Little Blue Pill is we are now talking about sex.

The positive outcome from all the ED discussions is that we are now talking about something that was once kept secret, hidden or ignored, and taken out of context. It is not a separate and isolated issue, but rather at the core of our well-being for life. The message is vital to get, and now is the time to take action towards the best possible solution for your total-body health. Health is freedom from limitation, pain, and choice. Live well to be truly well. It’s all up to you, and frankly, that’s the best news you could hear!

A good night’s sleep is important to your health

Everyone should get from seven to nine hours of sleep per night. Any less, and you’re running risks to your health.

One study, published in The Lancet Medical Journal, showed that chronic sleep deprivation can speed the onset of age-related conditions such as Type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, obesity, and memory loss. Another study at University of Pennsylvania showed that losing just two hours of sleep a night for only one week led to reduced performance in vigilance tests, and an increase in inflam-matory markers in the blood stream.

Use a scientifically proven, all-natural remedy

Melatonin is a natural sleep hormone that your brain produces at night. Studies at MIT show that it’s safe, non-addictive and virtually free from side e­ects. SLEEP WELL® starts with melatonin, and then adds a blend of herbs (passionflower,valerian root, skullcap) which have been shown, in scientific studies, to improve sleep quality. The combination of these ingredients – unique to SLEEP WELL – means you fall asleep more easily, sleep more restfully, and avoid the “hangover e­ect” experienced with many over-the-counter and prescription sleep remedies.

You can help yourself to a good night’s sleep

There are important things you can do on your own. Avoid ca­eine in the evenings, and don’t eat heavy meals or drink alcohol two hours prior to bedime. Bedtime snacks are a bad idea, too – they can raise your blood sugar and inhibit sleep.

It’s a natural solution:
