Do
you want to do everything you can to look good and feel good through
a long, healthy life?
Of
course you do. There is
probably nothing you want more than for yourself and those you love
to live life to its fullest -- physically strong and mentally sharp
as you celebrate all the best life has to offer.
The
fact that you are reading this brochure says that you are already
way ahead of the crowd -- youve have already figured out that

HIGH-POWERED
NUTRITION IS ONE KEY TO YOUTH AND
VITALITY.
Youve invested a
good bit of time, energy and money in nutrition.
Youve read the literature from the health food industry;
youve done your best to watch what you eat; and, most importantly,
youve not hesitated to spend your hard earned money on nutrition
supplements. You deserve a
lot of credit for everything you have tried to do for yourself.
You deserve even more praise if you have attempted to guide the
rest of your family down the road to vibrant health.
But -- you are about to learn some very disappointing and
exasperating news.
The truth about
nutritional supplementation that you are about to learn is so contrary to
everything you have been lead to believe, so contrary to everything you want
to believe -- that you may have a very strong resistance to facing this
truth. (That is why you are
given a list of scientific references at the end of this brochure backing
up all the facts you are about to learn.)
So -- continue reading with an open mind.
It has been said that knowledge is power, and the truth you are
about to learn will give you and your family the power to control your
health for the first time.
The front page of this
brochure offered you a secret advantage over everyone else who is seeking
a happy, healthy life. The
secret advantage you are about to gain is to not
blindly follow the advice of the health food industry.
You are about to see quite clearly that most of the propaganda that
comes out of the health food industry is not healthy at all;
and, most of the products they peddle are not food at all.
To make it clear how
you have been mislead by the health food industry you need only look at
one simple example of how nutrition supplements are promoted.
Vitamin C is probably the nutrient that has been most recommended,
for the most people, with the greatest diversity of health problems, for
many, many years. Vitamin C,
you are told, works its magic by virtue of its anti-oxidant
properties. It has been
promoted as good for almost any condition you can name.
It is hyped over and over again by the pill peddlers as something
that everyone should
take in supplemental doses, and even in mega doses.
Along with all the promises of cures and prevention from taking
Vitamin C you are assured over and over again that no amount of Vitamin C
can be harmful to you. After
all, Vitamin C is all natural, so your body can use what it needs,
while any excess is harmlessly excreted in your urine.
>
PREPARE
YOURSELF FOR A STRONG DOSE OF THE TRUTH.
Did you know that
Vitamin C depletes your body of many mineral and trace mineral nutrients?
(1)
The truth is that your
kidneys cannot excrete Vitamin C at all without combining it with an
important mineral nutrient such as calcium or magnesium or zinc.
Every single molecule of excess Vitamin C that gets
dumped in your urine steals from you an important mineral nutrient.
Did you know that
Vitamin C will particularly cause
a deficiency in the essential trace mineral copper? (2)
Did you know that
excess Vitamin C will actually cause
high cholesterol? (3)
Did you know that the
anti-oxidant Vitamin C will actually decrease
the activity of ceruloplasmin, one of your bodys most
important anti- oxidants? (4)
Did you know that
excess Vitamin C can damage the DNA (the genetic material inside each of your
cells) and also damage
cell membranes because of its oxidant (not anti-oxidant)
activity? (5)
Did you know that
because it is such a strong oxidant (not anti-oxidant) more
than 500 milligrams of Vitamin C will cause the formation in your DNA
of oxoadenine, a
powerfully damaging toxin which particularly will harm
the heart and other organs? (6)
Did you know that
Vitamin C will convert the mineral iron to a form that damages the blood
vessels and leads to hardening
of the arteries and heart blockage? (7)
Did you know that
Vitamin C can auto-oxidize, and instead of being an anti-oxidant to
protect you against free radical damage, will actually cause
free radical damage? (8)
This oxidation of
Vitamin C occurs most easily in the presence of minerals such as iron,
manganese, and chromium. When
excess Brown Vitamin C is taken with these mineral nutrients you are
particularly likely to suffer free radical damage.
Did you know that
excess Vitamin C will cause the formation of the toxic chemical pentosadine,
a marker of premature aging and tissue destruction? (9)
Did you know that
Vitamin C causes destruction of proteins in your body that will accelerate
the aging process? (10)
This acceleration of
aging by Vitamin C is particularly pronounced in anyone with a diabetic
tendency. The protein
destructive effects of Vitamin C are particularly associated with cataract formation.
Did you know that
Vitamin C in doses greater than 180 milligrams is a total waste
of money because it is not absorbed and tends to cause
gas and bloating in your intestinal tract? (11)
Eighty to ninety
percent of Vitamin C is absorbed up to a dose of 180 milligrams, but
beyond that, absorption decreases rapidly so that at 5000 milligrams doses
only 24% is absorbed, while the rest just irritates your digestive system.
Did you know that
Vitamin C (which is supposed to be good for the immune system) will
actually increase the incidence
and spread of cancer? (12)
Are you beginning to
get a little nervous about the Vitamin C that you have been taking?
Do you see how you
have been mislead by the health food industry about Vitamin C?
Or, should we quit pulling our punches and tell it straight
>
YOU
ARE BEING LIED TO BY THE HEALTH FOOD INDUSTRY.
You are being
deliberately deceived. You
are being cheated out of the health youve invested so much in
preserving. It is you, the
health-conscious person who is being cheated the most, since the more
nutrition supplements you take the more you are being damaged by a
viciously deceptive industry -- one that has won you over with promises of
health, youth and vitality, all the while taking your money for pills and
potions that actually make you weaker and sicker.
You see, the factual,
scientific type of case we just made against
irresponsible Vitamin C supplementation could be made just as well
against almost all of the vitamins as well as all of the minerals, and all of the trace minerals, not to mention the amino acids,
the herbs, and nearly all the other pills and potions peddled by the
health food industry.
We made the case above
for excess Vitamin C being a harmful oxidant instead of the anti-oxidant
that it should be when used responsibly.
In its damaging role as an oxidant Vitamin C destroys the activity
of one other important anti-oxidant -- Vitamin E.
But, the reverse can also occur.
Excess Vitamin E will also act as an oxidant instead of an anti-
oxidant and in fact, doses of Vitamin E much above 140 milligrams will
actually destroy the activity of Vitamin C.
(13)
We also mentioned
above the effects of Vitamin C in depleting you of copper.
That essential trace mineral is also depleted by excess intake of
the trace mineral zinc. You
may be surprised to learn that only two weeks of zinc supplementation of
18.5 milligrams is enough to cause a copper deficiency. (14)
Another problem with
excess zinc supplementation is it will actually cause high cholesterol.
(15)
You have now seen that
both Vitamin C and zinc work against the activity of copper.
How many people do you know that are taking Vitamin C and zinc
because they are both good for the immune system?
This combination has such a powerful anti-copper effect that it can
actually cause cardio-vascular disease. (16)
Do you see how unfair
it is? Do you see that the more supplements you have taken the more
you have let yourself be cheated and damaged by an unscrupulous industry?
(The health food industry started out decades ago as a wonderful
thing -- offering an alternative to the few people at that time who were
interested in maximizing their health.
There are still some wonderful, well-meaning people in the industry
who, however, have been duped by the same propaganda that has lead you
astray.)
Now that you realize
the truth, what is a health-conscious person like you supposed to do?
Stop taking supplements altogether?
No. It turns out that
you were right. You really do need supplements. Many,
many studies have shown conclusively that our high carbohydrate modern
diet is so devoid of essential nutrients that we are all at risk for
unnecessary health problems. Just
how much damage is being done when our nutrition needs are not met?
Research shows that fatigue, mood changes, and weight gain are all
signs of the stress of under nutrition.
Research shows that these ordinary, every day miseries are only the
tip of the iceberg, and are the forerunners for such severe conditions as
heart disease, diabetes, and cancer.
Science now shows us that you can enrich your life beyond your
wildest expectations if you supplement K.M., responsibility, if you
supplement with nutrients of the highest biologically activity, and if you
supplement with nutrients in proper balance. There is one
and only one multiple supplement which has been developed to give
you everything that may be missing from your diet, as well as the
high-powered nutrients to help keep you looking and feeling your best
while preventing the development of degenerative diseases.
The name of that supplement is OXYGENIC
B.
>
WHAT SPECIAL ADVANTAGES WILL
OXYGENIC B GIVE YOU?
How is it different
from the typical multiple supplement that you get from the health food
store? You get two unique
benefits from Oxygenic B. The first benefit is the broad diversity of nutrients.
No less than 37 nutritional factors are found in Oxygenic B.
None of these nutrients are in the forms, or in the excess
quantities, that have been shown to cause the damage (as described above)
of typical supplements.
The second special
benefit you get from Oxygenic B relates to the high biological activity of
the nutrients. This means that the nutrients are provided in forms that are
easily absorbed and participate most efficiently in your bodys
metabolic processes. This
quality distinction between Oxygenic B and other sources of nutrients is
so important that we have to give you some specific examples so that you
understand that
>
OXYGENIC
B IS AN ENTIRELY DIFFERENT APPROACH TO
SUPPLYING YOUR NUTRIENT NEEDS.
Go to the kitchen and
get out a loaf of bread and a box of cereal.
Now read on the labels until you come to the B vitamins used to
enrich these products. You
will likely find Vitamin B1 listed there as thiamine hydrochloride or
mononitrate; you will also find Vitamin B6 listed as pyridoxine
hydrochloride. These are the
forms of Vitamin B1 and B6 universally used in nutrition supplements and
the enrichment of foods. But
here is something that no one ever told you:
These are not the
forms of these vitamins that are used naturally by your body.
Oxygenic B contains B
vitamins in their biologically active enzyme co-factor form.
Vitamin B2 exists in the form of riboflavine-5-phosphate, the form
of the vitamin occurring naturally in tissues and cells.
And the Vitamin B1 and B6? In
Oxygenic B you will find them as thiamine pyrosphosphate and as
pyridoxal-5-phosphate instead of the cheap stuff used in the food industry
and in the supplement industry. Oxygenic
Bs enzyme co-factor forms of B vitamins, unlike common supplemental B
vitamins, require no
conversion in order to be efficiently utilized by your body.
One other important
consideration concerning B vitamins is your bodys ability to absorb
them. The health food
industry is happy to dress up their label with mega doses of B vitamins
making you think you are getting more for your money.
Using Vitamin B1 as an example, did you know that the maximum dose
your body can absorb is less than 4 milligrams?
What does that say about a supplement that contains 10, 20, or even
50 milligrams of Vitamin B1? Who ever made that product is either ignorant or dishonest --
either way you dont want the garbage theyre selling.
Oxygenic B gives you the highest biological activity nutrients, in
quantities for maximum absorption and utilization.
Another noteworthy
component of Oxygenic B is Vitamin C in fat-soluble form.
This form of Vitamin C is retained and utilized far more
effectively than the ordinary water-soluble Vitamin C.
An even more important
benefit you get from Oxygenic B is its mineral and trace mineral content.
Again, efficiency of absorption and utilization is the key.
One example to illustrate is the trace mineral chromium.
In Oxygenic B you find chromium polynicotinate, which has been
shown to be 18 times more bio-active than other forms of chromium, and,
which is also the form of chromium that relates specifically to preventing
blood sugar (and brain sugar) problems.
(17)
One other benefit from
Oxygenic B compared to other supplements is its high proportion of trace
minerals to vitamins. Oxygenic
B is formulated with careful consideration given to the typical diet.
Bread, cereal, and beverages are (as you know) commonly fortified
with B and C vitamins, yet contain little, if any, trace minerals.
You already learned earlier in this brochure that trace mineral
status is further jeopardized by the largely unrecognized fact that
supplementation with vitamins can actually further deplete trace mineral
levels.
Another benefit from
Oxygenic B (and one reason why it costs just a little more than the
garbage put out by the health food industry) is that it contains
physiologically significant quantities of all its nutrients.
A common trick employed by health food companies is to dress up
product labels with the names of all kinds of fancy nutrients -- but they
put them in there in insignificant quantities.
Consider, for instance, the powerful anti-oxidant glutathione.
You may find glutathione listed on the label of a popular
supplement in a quantity such as 1600 micrograms.
1600 might look like an impressive number, but 1600 micrograms
is so small as to be totally insignificant -- another attempt to trick you
into thinking you are getting more than you are.
Oxygenic B contains 40 milligrams of glutathione -- 25 times the quantity of this nutrient that you will ever
find in an ordinary supplement (if you find any at all).
Perhaps the most basic
advantage you get from Oxygenic B is that you absorb virtually all the
nutrients. This is due to
what is called the dissolution characteristics of the supplement.
You see, most vitamins and minerals have only a very short section
of your intestines through which they can be absorbed.
Most supplements do not even begin to dissolve in your intestine
until they have passed
the point of absorption for most nutrients.
(This is probably why more damage isnt done by the typical
trashy supplement -- most of the ingredients pass right through you and
into the toilet without ever actually being absorbed into your blood.)
When Oxygenic B is taken after a meal, the supplement breaks down
completely long before it gets even to the beginning part of your
intestinal tract, so that all the nutrients are absorbed.
You can easily see
that the scientific evidence supports Oxygenic B as being the perfect
foundation of your nutrition plan. Begin
taking it today -- and continue taking it throughout a longer, stronger
life.
