Ideas and Thoughts to Consider 

Why do health agencies not interview healthy people above age 55 and ask them what they consider the reasons are why they’ve been able to stay so healthy? People without aches, pains, heart problems, etc. and then compile and publish this information. It only makes sense if something is working to share this information with others.

A health or nutrition product that is mediocre at best doesn’t need a lot of vocal criticism to fail, it will fail on it’s own merits.

On the other hand a great product (nutrition, health or otherwise) may receive a lot of vocal criticism as people fear the competition it represents.

Consider how most things, which improve our lifestyle are improved, from health practices, to medicine, to transportation. People are critical of how something currently is and say this could be made better, and then they work to improve it or create something new all together which is an improvement.

So why is it when people are critical of a politician it’s called a personal attack, instead of just trying to make things better. Are politicians and their ideas already perfect, such that we can’t criticize and ask what would be the actual result of that policy they propose? Isn’t criticism really just a way to improve our politicians and officials?
Superior ideas and honest politicians welcome fair criticism, because in the light of that criticism it’s exposed as being superior.

Food for thought – doing the right thing. Look at the assault by the political and judicial establishments in this country on Christian and Biblical values. Things like forbidding the Ten Commandments to be on public display, which simply says not to steal, murder, cheat others, envy and covet others possessions. Basically doing the right things toward fellow human beings. These same politicians would whether create a whole maze of regulatory agencies to try to make sure people do the right thing. Face it these agencies wouldn’t be necessary if people automatically did the right thing with love toward their fellow human beings. It’s almost like these agencies are more important to them (politicians) than simply doing the right thing.

Why do so many politicians get us to focus on negative things. Instead of pointing out all the blessings most of us have living in a free society, they try to make people unhappy getting people focused on a problem that very likely was created by a politician in the first place.

New -GoChi Goji Juice Summary

Can you imagine what you could do with a little more energy? Perhaps you could get a little more work done, spend some more time playing with your kids, power your way through a workout at the gym, or perhaps just do something fun. Sounds appealing, doesn’t it? Well, the sad fact is that although many of us may have the best intentions, we simply run out of gas.

A lack of energy can have many causes. The U.S. National Institutes of Health tell us that these can include anemia, depression, sleep disorders, bad nutrition habits, diabetes, or a sedentary lifestyle. Certain medications may also cause a lack of energy, including antihistamines for allergies, blood pressure medicines, sleeping pills, prednisone, and diuretics.

Low energy can affect you in some important ways that you may not have considered. It can rob you of focus, and that can often lead to mental lapses and bad decision-making. Your work may suffer, too, as low energy steals the momentum you need to meet deadlines, arrive on time for meetings, and reach project milestones. The most successful people in business are those who can recognize an opportunity and have the ability to quickly seize it. With insufficient energy, the parade could pass you by, and you might not even know it!

Here are some great lifestyle tips that can help you to fill up your energy tank and improve your productivity:

1. Get more exercise. If you’re feeling tired, you might be surprised to learn that a walk may be better than a nap for boosting your energy levels. Any kind of physical activity will help to burn fat and increase your metabolism, and exercise will also improve your mood, helping you to feel more energized. In an important recent University of Georgia study, researchers found that sedentary people can increase their energy levels by 20 percent and reduce fatigue by an amazing 65 percent just by doing regular low-impact exercise. In another study, the same researchers found that the energy benefit from exercise was even greater than the improvement from using prescription stimulant drugs!
2. Take control of your health issues. Be sure to see your doctor if you have high blood pressure, thyroid problems, diabetes, or other energy-depleting medical conditions.
3. Sleep under comfortable conditions. Good quality sleep is essential for maintaining your energy reserves. Make sure that your bedroom is quiet, dark, and at a cool temperature that will promote healthful, deep sleep. Also, it may be time to replace that creaky mattress and lumpy pillow. Your energy levels will thank you!
4. Drink 4 ounces (120 ml) of GoChi every day!

If you’re like most people, you are actively seeking more happiness in your life. But you may be looking in the wrong places, and that may not be your fault. Turn on your TV, read a magazine, or log on to the Internet, and you’re assaulted by a never-ending bombardment of advertising pitches. They’ll try to convince you that happiness can be yours for the price of a new car, an expensive watch, or a trendy cell phone, but the sad truth is that the pleasure of a new acquisition fades quickly and will do nothing to increase your happiness quotient.

Can wealth make you happier? You’ve often heard that money can’t buy happiness, but few of us actually believe it. And yet, research has shown that once your basic needs are met, additional income does little to raise your sense of satisfaction with life. Additional income can raise your future happiness index, however, by helping you to secure your retirement goals or your children’s education.

Some people believe that youth is the key to happiness, but the fact is that older people are more consistently satisfied with their lives than the young, and they’re less prone to dark moods, too. Perhaps you’re thinking that a move to warmer, sunnier weather might make you happier? Well, think again! Tropical islands and the romantic French Riviera may be happy places to visit, but a recent study at England’s University of Leicester has shown that the world’s happiest people are the Danes, even though the climate can be unrelentingly cloudy, cold, and damp.

The good news is that you don’t have to move to Copenhagen to be happy. You can increase your happiness quotient over the long term by adopting healthy lifestyle habits such as getting enough sleep, exercising regularly, and making time for friends and family.

But what if you’re feeling blue right now? Here are some strategies that can help you to lift your spirits immediately (excerpted from Gretchen Rubin’s enlightening blog, The Happiness Project). Try to check off as many of the following items as possible, and you’ll really see a difference in your mood!

1. Boost your energy. Stand up and pace while you talk on the phone or, better still, take a brisk ten-minute walk outdoors. Research shows that the activity and sunlight are good for your focus, your mood, and the retention of information.
2. Reach out to friends. Having warm, close bonds with other people is one of the keys to happiness, so take the time to stay in touch.
3. Rid yourself of a nagging task. Crossing an irksome chore off your to-do list will give you a big rush of energy and cheer, and you’ll be surprised that you procrastinated for so long.
4. Create a calmer environment. Clear some physical and mental space around your desk by sorting papers, pitching junk, or even just making your piles neater. A large stack of little tasks can feel overwhelming, but often just a few minutes of work can make a sizeable dent.
5. Lay the groundwork for some future fun. Order a novel you’ve been wanting to read, or plan a weekend activity that brings you pleasure. Try to involve friends or family, as well; people enjoy almost all activities more when they’re with other people than when they’re alone.
6. Do a good deed. Introduce two people who could help each other, or shoot someone an email with some useful information or gratifying praise. If you do good, you’ll feel good—this really works.
7. Act happy. Put a smile on your face right now, even if you’re faking it. Research shows that even an artificially induced smile has a positive influence on your emotions. And if you’re smiling, other people will perceive you as being friendlier and more approachable.
8. Listen to your favorite music. Studies show that listening to music is one of the most effective ways to boost your energy and mood (second only to exercise). In fact, in one study, 92% of people felt happier when they listened to music they liked. For an added boost, dance around the room, too.
9. Drink 4 ounces (120 ml) of GoChi every day!

You can spend thousands of dollars on sophisticated alarm systems to protect your family against burglars, smoke, and carbon monoxide, but are you really safe? You may not have considered some unseen security threats. There are millions of them – bacteria, viruses, allergens, toxins, and parasites – they’re all around you, and they’d love nothing more than to invade your body and destroy your good health!
When your body encounters a potential attacker, it activates an amazing defense mechanism called the immune system. The first job of the immune system is to keep germs out, and it does this by use of barriers to prevent entry into the body. These include your skin, tears, saliva, stomach acid, intestinal flora, and mucous membranes.

Sometimes, invaders are able to get past this first line of defense, and that requires a more aggressive defense. In such cases, a vast network of cells, tissues, and organs all begin to work together to recognize and respond to the emergency. In order for this large-scale response to be effective, the entire immune system must be made aware that the body is under attack. This is the job of special cell messenger protein called interleukin-2 (IL-2). IL-2 sounds the danger alarm and spreads the word quickly throughout the body. IL-2 is also important in the production of T-cells, a vital part of the body’s targeted response to specific threats.

With so many divisions of your immune “armed forces” at work, it’s essential to have smooth and efficient communication among them to avoid a delayed or sub-optimal response. That’s why lymphocytes are so vitally important. These special white blood cells circulate throughout the body, playing an important role in commanding, directing, and coordinating your immune system’s diverse and varied functions.

Your highly complex immune system can actually recognize and remember millions of different enemies, and it can produce potent biological weapons called antibodies to match up with and wipe out nearly all of them. One of the body’s most powerful antibodies is immunoglobulin G (IgG), which circulates in the blood, working covertly to seek out bacteria, viruses, molds, yeasts, and allergens. When IgG finds a foreign invader, it “paints” it with a special chemical to mark it for destruction by the immune system’s “clean-up squads.”

Here are 10 great tips that can help you to keep your vital immune system functioning smoothly:

• Don’t smoke. In addition to what you already know about the hazards of tobacco smoking, it also wreaks havoc on virtually every aspect of immune function.
• Avoid toxins. Reduce exposure by choosing organic produce, washing fruits and vegetables to remove pesticide residues, and by using household cleaners and personal care products that are made with less toxic materials.
• Get adequate sleep. Poor sleep is associated with lower immune system function and reduced numbers of killer cells that fight germs.
• Reduce stress. There is compelling scientific evidence that chronic stress causes a measurable decline in the immune system’s ability to fight disease.
• Be optimistic. Studies show that pessimists, who tend to find fault with everything, don’t live as long as optimists, who have a more cheerful outlook. If you’re content with whom you are and with your life, you’ll also have less stress, and therefore fewer immune health consequences.
• Exercise regularly. Studies show the dangers to immune health of a sedentary lifestyle. One study compared inactive people with those who walked briskly almost every day. Researchers found that those who didn’t walk took twice as many sick days in four months as those who walked.
• Stay connected. Humans crave social contact, and studies have shown that the fewer human connections we have at home, at work, and in the community, the more likely we are to get sick, flood our brains with anxiety-causing chemicals, and die prematurely. One study found that people who are isolated may live only half as long as those who have a lot of human contact. Love appears to nourish the immune system, so spread the love!
• Eat a sensible, healthy diet. Excess fat can suppress the immune system, and too much sugar can inhibit the action of phagocytes, the “Pac-Man”-like blood cells that gobble up viruses and bacteria.
• Don’t overuse antibiotics, especially for viral infections (such as colds or flu) where they have no effect. Cutting down on unnecessary antibiotic use will help to prevent the spread of antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
• Drink 4 ounces (120 ml) of GoChi every day!

GoChi – Human clinical study shows significant immune enhancements in just 30 days!

In a recent randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled human clinical trial, blood tests on participants drinking a daily serving of 4 ounces (120 ml) of GoChi showed significant improvements in three key markers of immune health in just 30 days. Compared to their blood levels at the beginning of the study, the test subjects experienced the following:

• 27% increase in lymphocytes
• 58% increase in interleukin-2 (IL-2)
• 19% increase in immunoglobulin G

In yet another controlled human study that was featured in the peer-reviewed Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine (JACM), participants drinking a daily serving of just 4 ounces (120 ml) of GoChi reported experiencing significantly decreased feelings of stress and more positive feelings of contentment and happiness in as little as 14 days. The publication of this study by the independent experts of a peer-reviewed publication such as JACM represents a first for a functional juice beverage in the Direct Selling industry, and it demonstrates FreeLife’s ongoing commitment to supporting its claims with solid scientific research.

Drink GoChi. Your body’s armed forces will thank you!

Fear and anxiety are an unavoidable part of life. You may feel anxious before a dental appointment, or when you’re walking alone down a dark street. This kind of anxiety is useful - it can make you more alert or careful. It usually ends soon after you are out of the situation that caused it. But for millions of people around the world, the anxiety does not go away, and it can even get worse over time, with symptoms such as chest pains or nightmares. Some may even be afraid to leave home. These people have anxiety disorders.

Here’s how to recognize the differences between normal anxiety and anxiety disorders, courtesy of the Anxiety Disorders Association of America:

Normal Anxiety	Anxiety Disorder
Occasional worry about circumstantial events that may leave you upset, such as financial worries, family problems, or traffic jams	Constant, chronic, and unsubstantiated worry that causes significant distress, disturbs your social life, and interferes with work
Embarrassment or self-consciousness in the face of uncomfortable social situations	Avoidance of common social situations for fear of being judged, embarrassed, or humiliated
Random case of “nerves” or jitters, dizziness, and/or sweating over an important event like an exam, job interview, or oral presentation	Repeated, random panic attacks or persistent worry/anticipation of another panic attack and feelings of terror or impending doom
Realistic fear of a threatening object, place, or situation	Irrational fear or avoidance of an object, place, or situation that poses little or no threat of danger
Wanting to be sure that you are healthy and living in a safe, hazard-free environment	Performing uncontrollable, repetitive actions, such as washing your hands repeatedly or checking things over and over
Anxiety, sadness, or difficulty sleeping immediately following a traumatic event	Ongoing and recurring nightmares, flashbacks, or emotional numbing relating to a traumatic event in your life that occurred several months or years ago

If you can relate to any of the anxiety disorder symptoms, you may want to talk to someone who is professionally qualified to help. For normal anxiety, the following strategies will also help you to stay calm:

• Exercise. Physical activity helps your body and mind. It doesn’t matter whether you jog, work out, play tennis, or go for a walk. Just get off the couch and get moving!
• Eat a balanced diet. Don’t skip meals, and try to eat from all of the food groups.
• Limit alcohol and stimulant use. Alcohol can aggravate anxiety and can also cause panic attacks, and too much caffeine can do the same as well.
• Get involved. Being active in your church or community creates a support network and gives you a break from your everyday stress.
• Do your best instead of trying to be perfect. We all know perfection isn’t possible, so be proud of however close you get.
• Take a timeout. When you’re feeling overwhelmed, just take a deep breath and count to 10. Stepping back from the problem lets you clear your head. Practicing meditation, listening to soothing music, or getting a relaxing massage are great ways to calm down.
• Put things in perspective. Think about your situation. Ask yourself whether it’s really as bad as you think it is or if you might be blowing it out of proportion.
• Talk to someone. Don’t let things bottle up to the verge of explosion. Reach out to trusted friends or family if you’re feeling low.
• Find out what triggers your anxiety. Take notes or write in a journal when you’re feeling anxious or stressed, and then look for patterns.
• Drink 4 ounces (120 ml) of GoChi every day!

Everyone’s talking about the age-defying benefits of antioxidants, but do you know what antioxidants are-and how they actually work?

The U.S. Government’s Medline Plus database defines antioxidants as substances that help to protect your cells against the effects of free radicals. Free radicals are molecules produced when your body breaks down food or by environmental sources such as tobacco smoke, radiation, and automobile exhaust. You even produce harmful free radicals when you exercise! Left unchecked, free radicals can damage or kill cells. They play a role in heart disease, cancer, and other diseases, and they can also contribute to the premature aging of your body and mind.

Fortunately, antioxidants can come to the rescue! The antioxidant process in your body is similar to stopping an apple from browning. Once you cut an apple, it begins to brown, but you can prevent discoloration by dipping each slice in lemon juice, which contains the antioxidant vitamin C.

Antioxidants are divided into two classes: the dietary antioxidants that you get from food, and the endogenous antioxidants that are made by the body. In addition to vitamin C, dietary antioxidants also include beta-carotene, vitamin E, selenium, and polyphenols such as anthocyanins, flavonoids, and xanthones. Polyphenols are found in some fruits and juices, and even though they may look impressive in antioxidant tests such as ORAC, those tests only measure antioxidant potential in a test tube. The truth is that most antioxidants in fruits and juices do not perform well in the human body because they are poorly absorbed and therefore remain trapped in the digestive tract, and this has been shown in important scientific studies. We believe that it is far more meaningful to human health to maintain high serum levels of the body’s own endogenous antioxidants, namely superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase. These vital antioxidant enzymes circulate in the blood throughout the entire body to neutralize all types of free radicals before they can do harm.

Here are some tips for increasing your body’s antioxidant power to help prevent premature aging:

1. “Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants.” These words of wisdom are from Michael Pollan’s remarkable new book, In Defense of Food. His directives are simple, sensible, and to the point:
   • “Eat food” – Eat a wide variety of the kinds of natural and healthy foods that your grandparents ate, not today’s unhealthy processed or “engineered” foods that are loaded with salt, fat, or high-fructose corn syrup. The digestion and metabolism of processed foods can deplete your body’s vital endogenous antioxidants.
   • “Not too much” – The more calories you consume, the more free radicals you generate. Animal studies have shown that those that eat less live longer, healthier lives.
   • “Mostly plants” – Plant-based foods are healthier and put far less oxidative stress on the body. Fruits, vegetables, whole grains, seeds, and nuts also contain beneficial phytonutrients that can contribute to health and well-being.
2. Drink 4 ounces (120 ml) of GoChi every day!

---

GoChi – Human clinical study shows increased antioxidant power and reduced free-radical damage in just 30 days!
In a recent randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study, blood tests on participants drinking GoChi showed highly significant improvements in serum levels of the important endogenous antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase. This was accompanied by a corresponding reduction in blood levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), a prime indicator of free-radical damage and a known health risk factor. This antioxidant study is yet another demonstration of the remarkable power of GoChi, and it illustrates FreeLife’s ongoing commitment to lead the nutrition industry in clinical research, product efficacy, and evidence-based product formulation. So raise your glass, and you’ll soon be well on your way to raising your antioxidant power. Cheers! Your FreeLife Science Team

Increased Mental Sharpness Reported in Clinical Study

Do you think you have a problem making decisions? Well, you may not know it, but you actually make tens of thousands of decisions daily, and each one, even the simple act of putting one foot in front of the other, relies upon the awesome computing power of the human brain. Like all supercomputers, the brain is powered by electrical energy. Instead of batteries and wires, however, your mind is equipped with complex circuits of neurons (brain cells), neurochemicals (electrical conductors), and nerves (pathways). When they’re working together in harmony, you feel mentally sharp. Unfortunately, many factors can decrease the optimum functioning of the brain’s complex circuitry. These include:

High homocysteine levels – An amino acid found in the blood of people with cardiovascular disease, homocysteine kills brain and nerve cells.

Hypertension – Blood vessels are damaged in the brain, reducing its supply of nutrients and oxygen and disrupting nerve circuits that control decision-making, memory, and verbal skills.

Diabetes – Too much insulin encourages inflammation and oxidative stress. Both contribute to cognitive loss.

Free-radical damage – This damage contributes to the premature aging and death of brain cells. Malondialdehyde (MDA) is widely regarded as the body’s most toxic free radical, and it is the one that is most often implicated in loss of brain and nervous system function.
What can you do to protect your cherished memories and your brain’s computing power? Here are some tips to sharpen your mental abilities:

1. Exercise your mind. Keeping your brain active is important for retaining full mind power. Reading books, listening to the radio, or doing puzzles are great calisthenics for the brain.
2. Be socially engaged. Having lots of friends and acquaintances and participating in many social activities is associated with reduced cognitive decline and decreased risk of dementia in older adults. In the NIA-funded Chicago Health and Aging Project, a high level of social engagement was associated with a significant reduction in cognitive decline.
3. Get your health issues under control, especially if you have diabetes, heart disease, or high blood pressure. Discuss a wellness plan with your doctor, and your brain will thank you.
4. Be physically active. Aerobic exercise, even walking, supplies brain cells with blood, oxygen, and nutrients, and clears toxins. One 8-year study on 6000 women 65 years and older found that those who were more physically active experienced far less cognitive decline.
5. Drink 4 ounces (120 ml) of GoChi every day!

---

In a recent human clinical trial reported in the peer-reviewed Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine (JACM), participants drinking a daily serving of just 4 ounces (120 ml) of GoChi reported experiencing significant improvement in mental sharpness in as little as 14 days. In yet another controlled human study, GoChi was found to significantly reduce free-radical damage by malondialdehyde (MDA) in just 30 days!

I received a phone call yesterday from someone who just 4 days earlier had tried Himalayan Goji (GoChi Juice) for the very first time. Her problem she said was that she was out of it and needed more and didn’t want to wait several days for it to be shipped to her. She was trying to find someone from whom she could get more in her local area. Unfortunately I was unable to help her locate a local distributor. She kept saying how much she had fallen in love with the GoChi Juice in that short time.

Her story while slightly different is not that unusual. I’m constantly hearing from people saying how much they love the GoChi goji juice drink.

It’s no wonder professional athletes love it, even when they’re not being paid to endorse it. After all a recent double-blind placebo controlled peer reviewed study showed in increased athletic performance. Here is the story of one professional football player that loves the product.

Robert Meachem

Professional Football Player

Rookie Wide Receiver Robert Meachem was selected as the 27th pick in the 2007 draft by the New Orleans Saints.

A graduate of Booker T. Washington High School, in Tulsa, Oklahoma, Meachem was named a high school All-American by Parade and SuperPrep reporting services. Meachem went on to attend the University of Tennessee in the South Eastern Conference (SEC), where he garnered rave reviews, and had what was considered his breakout year in 2006, earning an all SEC, consensus All-American selection.

People have often asked me what other nutritional products we carry - check out this list of health and nutritional products - click here!

I won’t mention any brands here but here is some food for thought considering some of what I call the fruit salad health juice products. The health juice drinks that contain everything from blueberries, cranberries, grapes, goji berries, acai berries, pomegranate, kiwi and more.

Here are some points to consider. You could argue that blending a dozen or more fruits would give you the benefits of all of them. This makes some sense at first to me until you consider how many years of research would it take to actually perfect a mixture where each fruit you selected actually totally complemented one another. I would think quite a long time and even many more years to produce a product where you had the exact right amount of blueberry and cranberry and goji berry and acai berry and each fruit in the mix for maximum health benefit.

And yet when I look at each of these fruit salad products I see nothing of that. Just some empty words that say each of the fruits was chosen for specific health benefits or something like that.

Let’s look at this from a shear marketing standpoint - to say you have 12 or 15 or 17, etc different fruits in your mix doesn’t that sound more impressive than only having one. I’m sure the makers had that in mind hoping you would think that.

However, what none of these manufacturers tell you, and of course they’ll say it’s for proprietary reasons, is how much blueberry and how much cranberry and how much acai and goji berries are in the product. Could it be mostly grape and cranberry with a little of each of the others? I don’t honestly know.

Also if one particular ingredient was actually the super-star ingredient I would think I would prefer the product to be mostly that and not a bunch of lesser fruits making up the rest of the formula.

Also I know from experience that many fruits like goji for example can vary quite a bit in nutritional value depending upon where they are grown, soil and climate conditions. No where with any of these products do I see where the producer talks about their process for controlling the nutritional value of each of each fruit.

In addition with 15 or more different fruits in the bottle are you getting enough of any of them to be of real benefit?

Just asking questions - looking for answers.

Actually there is only one ancient berry showing many thousands of years of use and benefit in and area of advanced culture and longevity. That is the Chinese and the goji berry. There are no records of highly advanced civilizations like the Chinese in the South Pacific, not in the Amazon rainforest. No where that I know of in the world is there a super fruit health berry that grows in an area of an advanced civilization of where there is also a history of longevity. Except where the goji berry grows. And while this certainly doesn’t mean there aren’t very valuable nutrients in fruits grown around the world this is just further evidence the goji berry being supreme over all of the others.
