<br />
<br />After analyzing over 100 scientific studies, researchers found that certain proteins in seaweed actually rival both dairy protein AND hypertension medication in their ability to support heart health.
<br />
<br />According to Maria Hayes, Ciaran Fitzgerald and Eimear Gallagher who collected and compared extensive data in their review, sea vegetables can do much more for Western people than just provide a natural vegan source of protein.
<br />
<br />"Seaweeds are a rich but neglected alternative source," the research team believes. Due to their abundant content of heart-healthy bioactive peptides, they naturally mimic ACE inhibitor activity and actively work to help lower blood pressure. Naturally-occurring substances possessing ACE inhibiting properties have also been found in cultured milk and bioactive whey.
<br />
<br />The researchers also note increased interest in using bioactive peptides, now obtained mainly from milk and whey products, as ingredients in functional foods. These foods not only provide nutrition, but have a medicine-like effect in treating or preventing certain diseases.
<br />
<br />Synthetic drugs containing bioactive peptides are currently prescribed against hypertension; however these drugs can be quite damaging to health and at times even completely ineffective. ACE inhibitor drugs are known to have a high toxicity and cause unwanted side effects (such as dry cough and angioedema), plus are not recommended during pregnancy.
<br />
<br />Consequently, a mission to find natural and safe sources of bioactive peptides has led the scientific community to turn to sea vegetables as a plentiful resource of beneficial substances.
<br />
<br />"The variety of macroalgae species, the environments in which they are found and their ease of cultivation make macroalgae a relatively untapped source of new bioactive compounds. More efforts are direly needed to fully exploit their potential for use and delivery to consumers in food products, Hayes claims"Paulhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02890770848703743712noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4997317679332561533.post-68472342518168510612011-07-17T22:39:00.001-04:002011-07-17T22:44:26.917-04:00What is Whey Protein?Whey protein is a mixture of globular proteins isolated from whey, the liquid material created as a by-product of cheese production. Some preclinical studies in rodents have suggested that whey protein may possess anti-inflammatory or anti-cancer properties; however, human data is lacking.The effects of whey protein on human health are of great interest and are currently being investigated as a way of reducing disease risk, as well as a possible supplementary treatment for several diseases.<br /><br />Of all the wonderful foods found in nature, only one was produced for the sole purpose of being food - natural, fresh milk.<br /><br />The "native" whey serum found in fresh milk has been revered by mankind for thousands of years due to its health giving properties.

Glutathione is found in all cells in the body, including the bile, the epithelial lining fluid of the lungs, and - at much smaller concentrations - in the blood.<br /><br />Glutathione is the smallest intracellular non-protein thiol (molecule containing an S_H or sulfhydryl group) molecule in the cells. This characteristic emphasizes its potent antioxidant action and supports a<br />multifaceted thiol exchange system, which regulates cell activity.<br /><br />This small protein, produced naturally in the body, maintains these three crucial protective functions.<br />In fact, your life depends on glutathione. Without it, your cells would disintegrate from unrestrained oxidation, your body would have little resistance to metabolic acids, and your liver would shrivel up from the eventual accumulation of acidic toxins.<br /><br />Glutathione is not yet a household word. Even some medical and holistic doctors who have heard the term may still have only a vague idea of what it is. However, everyone will soon be talking about this critical<br />non-nutritive substance.<br /><br />There was a time when only scientists had heard of cholesterol and vitamins, but today, everyone knows about them. Now the magnificence of glutathione is becoming known.<br /><br />In the last five years, over 25,000 medical articles about this substance have been published, and the scientific understanding of glutathione is gradually becoming common knowledge.<br /><br />Each and every cell in the body is responsible for its own supply of glutathione and must have the necessary raw materials in order to produce it. Glutathione is always in great demand and is rapidly consumed when we<br />experience any sort of emotional or physical stress, fatigue and even moderate exercise.<br /><br />Some well-known causes of glutathione depletion are as follows:<br /><br />1) Acidic lifestyle and diet<br />2) Air and Water pollution<br />3) Prescription and recreational drugs<br />4) Ultraviolet and Radiation from cells phones, computers, electrical cars, power lines, hair dryers, etc.<br />5) Emotional and physical stress<br />6) Injury, trauma or burns<br />7) Heavy metals<br />8) Cigarette smoke<br />9) Household chemicals<br />10) Acetaminophen poisoning<br />11) Exhaust from motor vehicles<br />12) Septic shock<br />All of these above factors lead to a build up of acidic toxins that cause<br />the loss of glutathione as a non-nutritive buffer leading to cellular aging,<br />disease and finally death.<br /><br />Why is Glutathione Essential to Health?<br /><br />Glutathione's three major roles in the body are summarized by the letters A-B-C.<br /><br />- Anti-oxidant<br />- Blood Booster<br />- Cell Detoxifier<br /><br />These are the three critical processes driven by glutathione.<br />The Master Antioxidant<br /><br />Over the past thirty years, researchers have explored the role of antioxidants in good health as well as the treatment and prevention of diseases involving oxidation or fermentation by metabolic acids.<br /><br />Well known and widely used antioxidants such as vitamin A, vitamin E and selenium neutralize acid. They occur naturally in nature, but not in the body. They must be introduced as part of a balanced diet.<br /><br />Given the critical role of antioxidants in good health, it is not surprising that the body itself manufactures its<br />own natural antioxidants. The most important of these is glutathione. Because all other antioxidants<br />depend upon the presence of glutathione to function properly, scientists call it 'the master antioxidant.'<br /><br />Glutathione binds to toxins, forming a water-soluble complex - which is ultimately excreted in the urine or bile as waste.<br /><br />Food for the Blood<br /><br />Elevated glutathione levels enable the body to produce more white blood cells. White blood cells are the body's garbage collectors and are the most important cells for maintaining sterility of the body fluids.<br /><br />Glutathione plays a central role in the proper function of the white blood cells. Dr. Bustavo Bounous, a leading glutathione expert, says, 'The limiting factor in the proper activity of our lymphocytes (the white blood<br />cells) is the availability of glutathione.' In other words, healthy growth and activity of the white blood cells depends upon glutathione's availability. Put simply, glutathione is 'food' for the white blood cells.<br /><br />Cellular Detoxifier<br /><br />Whether we know it or not, we are continually inhaling and ingesting natural and synthetic acidic toxins. They are unavoidable in these modern times both in our polluted cities and our poorly engineered food supplies. When the body has the health and the nourishment it needs, it works tirelessly to eliminate acidic toxins and to protect itself. But, increasing levels of environmental pollution are depleting the body's store of glutathione more and more rapidly. Our main organ of detoxification of acidic waste products is the lymphatic<br />system and the liver. This is the body's most concentrated source of glutathione.<br /><br />Studies show that low glutathione levels lead to poor lymphatic and liver function, causing more and more acidic toxins to circulate through the body and resulting in damage to individual cells and organs.<br /><br />Medical doctors today routinely use glutathione- promoting drugs to detoxify victims of certain types of drug overdose.<br />Glutathione in Natural Medicine<br /><br />Practitioners of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) have long advocated the use of milk thistle for liver problems. It turns out that this herb works by modestly elevating glutathione levels. The mineral<br />selenium also produces subtle elevations in glutathione by becoming integrated into the glutathione peroxidase.<br />Glutathione in Traditional Medicine<br /><br />Emergency medical doctors, toxicologists and lung and liver specialists are well acquainted with glutathione's therapeutic uses. American physicians seeking ways to raise a patient's glutathione levels can open the standard Physician's Desk Reference (PDR) and find two options - the pharmaceutical drugs sold under the names Parlodex and Mucomyst, and the natural dietary supplement found in natural foods stores derived from whey protein isolate.<br /><br />Drugs That Raise Glutathione Levels<br /><br />Pharmaceutical drugs like Procysteine, OTC, OTX, Glutathione monoesters and Glutathione diesters have been used to raise glutathione levels. However, they all produce side effects and are unsuitable for long term use.<br />This pharmaceutical non-nutritive chemical is used to break up mucus in lung diseases such as cystic fibrosis, chronic bronchitis and asthma. It remains the standard treatment for acetaminophen overdose.<br /><br />Glutathione in Health and Disease<br /><br />It is believed that glutathione has an important role to play in the prevention and treatment of disease.<br />It may in the future be considered as important to health as an alkaline diet, exercise and alkaline lifestyle. Clinical tests show that raised glutathione levels may address some of the eight major health issues of our time:<br /><br />1) Cardiovascular<br /><br />- Prevents heart disease - Shimizu H, Kiyohara Y, Kitazono T, Kubo M, Ibayashi S, Fufishima M, Lida M.<br />Relationship Between Plasma Glutathione Levels and Cardiovascular Disease in a Defined Population: The Hisyama Study.

Eur Respir J. 2000 Sep; 16(3):534-54<br /><br />- Cystic fibrosis - Glutathione neutralized harmful oxidants introduced into the lungs or those released by cells. Exotoxins from bacteria can overload the endobronchial terrain and feed the fires of acidic inflammation. This<br />staggering burden increases the oxidative sensitivity of the CF lung, resulting in further injury of lung parenchyma. Data supports evidence of a decrease in the antioxidant tri-peptide glutathione (Roum JH, Buhl R, McElvaney NG, et al. Systemic Deficiency of Glutathione in Systic Fibrosis.

(Perlmutter D., BrainRecovery.com July 2004, 5th ed:13)<br /><br />- Autism - Medical literature documents that an out-fection can lead to a lowering of glutathione which participates in detoxification, interacts with metallothioneins, and supports many crucial aspects of immunity. A link between glutathione and autism regression may derive from the fact that transient or chronic intestinal problems can impair an infant's or toddler's nutritional status, thereby minimizing the levels of amino-acids required for the production of glutathione (McCandless, J. Children With Starving Brains. 2003, 2nd ed; 252)<br /><br />- Parkinson's Disease - Glutathione helps to preserve brain tissue by preventing damage from free radicals (acids) and destructive chemicals formed by the normal processes of metabolism, toxic elements in the<br />environment, and as a normal response of the body to challenges by acidic agents or other stresses. With the understanding that glutathione is important for brain protection and that this protection many be lacking in<br />the brains of Parkinson's clients due to glutathione deficiency, it can be seen as very beneficial.<br />(Di Monte DA, Cahn P, Sandy MS.

Some lymphocytes require adequate levels of glutathione in order to function normally, and HIV induces oxidative stress that depletes the cells of glutathione. Townsend DM, Tew KD, Tapero H.

Role of Cysteine and Glutathione in HIV Infection and other Diseases Associated with Muscle Wasting and<br />Immunological Dysfunction. FASEB J, 11(13):1077-89 1997 Nov.<br /><br />- Lyme Disease - Lyme disease is a seriously complex multi-system acidic inflammatory condition that is triggered by bacterial exotoxins. Glutathione helps to remove exotoxic and/or mycotoxic acids by forming a<br />soluble compound with them, which can then be excreted through the urine or gut. (Can Glutathione Help Lyme Disease Suffers? Excerpt from: The Glutathione Report: Opitmal Health with the Master Antioxidant, Issue 4, Volume 1, May 2004).<br /><br />- Natural antibiotic<br /><br />- Chronic fatigue syndrome - An article in the journal of Medical Hypothesis proposed that glutathione, an anitoxidant essential for lymphocyte function, may be depleted in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome patients. Glutathione is needed for both the immune system and for aerobic muscular contraction. The authors proposed that glutathione depletion by an activated immune system also causes the muscular fatigue and myalgia associated with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (Bounous et al. 1999).<br /><br />8) Metabolic<br /><br />- Athletic enhancement<br />- Decreases recovery time from physical stress<br />- Supports hemoglobin in kidney failure<br /><br />- Diabetes - The blood and tissues of diabetics are marked by critically low glutathione levels. Glutathione depletion may have adverse consequences in diabetic clients independent of glycemic control, and it may<br />weaken the defense against oxidative stress. De Mattia G, Bravi MC, Laurenti O, Cassone-Faldetta M, Armiento A, Ferri C, Falsano F. Influence of Reduced Glutathione Infusion on Glucose Metabolism in Patients with Non-insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus. Metabolism. 1998 Aug;47(8):433-8.<br /><br />Glutathione provides the body with tools to fight off these threats naturally. Healthy people also benefit from elevated glutathione levels through an enhanced ability to fight off acidic toxins, disease, pre-cancerous cells and the aging process itself. Diminished glutathione levels are a symptom of aging and are particularly evident in such aliments as Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's disease.<br /><br /><br />Glutathione is also important to physically active people. Many world-class athletes are discovering that well-maintained glutathione levels gives them the edge over their competitors, bringing greater strength and endurance ,decreased recovery time from injury, less muscle pain and fatigue, and muscle-promoting activity.<br /><br />Putting It All Together<br /><br />1) Medical science is still ascertaining all the critical roles played by glutathione in disease resistance and general good health. Clinical evidence links low glutathione levels to the most common illnesses of our<br />time as well as newly emerging diseases.<br /><br />2) As an essential aid to health, glutathione works as the master antioxidant in our body, optimizes the white blood cells and detoxifies a long list of pollutants and carcinogens or acids. The best way to raise glutathione levels is by eating foods that are high in glutathione such as avocados.<br /><br />3) Pharmaceutical medicine has created drugs that do this very effectively. They have their uses in critical situations. But they also have side effects and repeated use is clearly inadvisable.<br />_________________________________________________________<br />References:<br /><br />Aging<br /><br />It is well known that aging is accompanied by a precipitous fall in glutathione levels.

While this is a very serious issue<br />for the people of Japan, any immediate or long-term impact on the U.S.<br />remains unclear.<br /><br />I recall the tedious precautions we took during lab work in my Nuclear<br />Engineering classes in college. We had to monitor our exposure by wearing<br />special devices. If certain exposure levels were met, we could not return to<br />the lab for a period of time.<br /><br />As the reactors in Japan release radioactive particles into the air, we know<br />for a fact that wind and water currents could carry radioactive fallout further. <br />The only uncertainty is to what degree, how far, and for how long.<br /><br />Some have speculated that the western United States could be exposed to<br />dangerous levels of radiation within the next 4-7 days. While I personally<br />believe this to be an exaggerated scare tactic, it creates an important<br />dialogue we must all be prepared to understand.<br /><br />One of the most carcinogenic nuclear fission products found in fallout is<br />radioactive Iodine (Iodine-131). Iodine-131 is very dangerous because the<br />thyroid gland readily absorbs it just as it would the natural, healthy form of<br />iodine.<br /><br />If humans or animals are deficient in iodine, they are at a substantially higher<br />risk of thyroid damage including thyroid cancer as a result of exposure to<br />fallout. Nuclear fallout literally “falls” from the sky and can eventually end up<br />in our soil, our water, and our food supply.<br /><br />While the Japanese are perhaps one of the best prepared cultures for such<br />a tragedy due to their high intake of iodine from seaweed, the majority of<br />others are not. The Japanese typically ingest 100 times the amount of daily<br />iodine as Americans. According to iodine research by Dr. Guy Abraham and<br />Dr. David Brownstein, as many as 96% of Americans are extremely<br />deficient in iodine.<br /><br />Thankfully, there is a simple step many of us are already taking to help<br />boost the protective benefits of iodine within the thyroid and literally ever cell<br />within our body: Emerald Sea™.<br /><br />Emerald Sea™ is a rich and rare natural source of iodine from the<br />most nutrient dense species of seaweed on the planet. If there is enough<br />iodine in our bodies, radioactive fallout is no longer able to concentrate in<br />the thyroid and it will simply pass through.<br /><br />This is just one of the many benefits of natural, food-based iodine. It not<br />only helps to ensure proper operation of the thyroid and our entire<br />endocrine system, it helps to protect this vital gland from the dangers of<br />radioactive fallout.<br /><br />Knowing this, we can take prudent precautionary steps to protect ourselves<br />and loved ones from any potential radioactive dangers, including those we<br />already face every day.<br /><br />I know that for me and my family, Emerald Sea™ is by far the healthiest and<br />most important staple of every meal we eat. <br /><br />By following our basic principles of Foundational Nutrition™ on a daily<br />basis, we can rest easy knowing that our natural defense shields are<br />always on guard.<br /><br />In Health and Happiness,<br />Adrian Goad<br /><br />President<br />Emerald Express Intl.Paulhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02890770848703743712noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4997317679332561533.post-76650076588186500512010-08-17T17:31:00.001-04:002010-08-17T17:32:52.700-04:00Featured SpeakerThis Tuesday, August 17, I will again be the Featured speaker on the Emerald Express weekly conference call giving Part 2...This week I will be talking about Simon Sinek's "Golden Circle" and what makes successful companies and people successful.

There are two extremes of poor digestive health - diarrhea and constipation, to be blunt. Many of us fluctuate somewhere in the middle. <br />Related to this, colon cancer has become one of the leading causes of death in the U.S. <br />Abdominal pain is a major contributor to many hospital visits in this country. <br />And don't forget colitis, a severe infection of the colon that causes great discomfort. <br /><br />With all that going on, how can we defend ourselves??<br /><br />In our intestinal tract, there is an important balance of millions of microorganisms that can mean the difference between health and disease. Prebiotics is a new "craze" and an increasingly-popular term that supports the growth of beneficial bacteria, probiotics. Several components of whey support this positive growth. <br /><br />Immunoglobulins can capture the toxins associated with colitis and help reduce the side effects, while lactoferrin can pull iron away from the bad bacteria while providing it to the good bacteria. The intestinal health benefits of whey, especially native, non-denatured whey protein like Action Whey, are substantial. <br /><br />The fragile biologically-active components that are retained in native whey help keep the digestive tract functioning properly, as opposed to commercial proteins that destroy the fragile components so necessary for good intestinal health.<br />Start Taking Action Now!

A growing area of excitement and research surrounds Glutathione, the centerpiece of your body's antioxidant defense system.<br />Years ago, no one ever heard of "antioxidants" or "free radicals". But over the past 30 years, researchers have explored antioxidants in promoting good health, as well as the treatment and prevention of diseases involving oxidation by free radicals.<br />Given the critical role of antioxidants in good health, it’s not surprising that the body itself manufactures its own natural antioxidants.<br />The most important is Glutathione, which is THE MASTER ANTIOXIDANT that all other antioxidants depend upon to function properly. According to Dr. Theodore Hersch, Harvard Graduate & Professor of Medicine Emeritus Emory University, <br />Glutathione is “the best kept secret to maintaining health”!<br />Glutathione levels have been shown to be positively affected by ingestion of the sulphur-containing precursor amino acids Cysteine and Methionine. The availability of Cysteine determines how much Glutathione the body can produce.<br />While several dietary sources naturally contain small amounts of Cysteine, the average American diet is largely deficient.<br />Action Whey™ not only provides every single amino acid needed by the body on a daily basis; it is perhaps the single best source on the planet for the naturally-occurring forms of Cysteine!<br />The immune-supporting properties of nutrients provided by Action Whey™ have been widely documented to benefit glutathione deficiencies caused by illness, trauma, toxins, improper diet, aging, and physical exertion.Paulhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02890770848703743712noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4997317679332561533.post-63323117992904962112010-05-18T22:31:00.000-04:002010-05-18T22:45:29.361-04:00Action Whey and Body BuildingTHE MAGIC OF MUSCLE<br /><br />Muscle is one of the most overlooked but most important elements of good health. According to scientific studies, striving to build or preserve muscle not only leads to a better body composition and appearance, it also increases the chances of a longer and healthier life.<br /><br />LESS PAIN, MORE GAIN<br /><br />Adding Action Whey™ to your workouts or exercise efforts will help support less fat storage, more muscle, quicker recovery, and enhanced efficiency of exercise.<br /><br />Action Whey™ is formulated for fast muscle nourishment and recovery. It is specially designed to accommodate the muscle's metabolic needs for fast and complete nutrient delivery before and after exercise.<br /><br />WHAT THE OTHER GUYS DON'T TELL YOU...BECAUSE THEY CAN'T<br /><br />Commercial whey proteins typically preach the muscle-building benefits of glutamine and branch chain amino acids (BCAA's). However, they rarely if ever teach the critical importance of Cysteine. Why? Because the naturally occurring form of Cysteine in whey is very easily damaged by the high-heat/acidic processes used by most whey protein manufacturers.<br /><br />Cysteine not only contributes to muscle energy production, durability, and recovery, it has a critical relationship to the preservation of Glutamine levels and muscle mass.<br /><br />In fact, studies have shown that the concentration of amino acids Glutamine and Cysteine are what determines the amount of muscle a person carries throughout their lifespan.<br /><br />Action Whey's™ exclusive cold-processed whey protein from grass-fed cows provides a rich source of naturally-occurring Cysteine and every other amino acid essential to fast muscle nourishment.<br /><br />QUANTITY VS. QUALITY<br /><br />Which would you rather have? A 5 pound tub of trash, or a spoonful of pure gold? Your choice for critical muscle nutrients shouldn't be any different. Don't get fooled by all the hype.<br /><br />If you're serious about building and preserving high-quality lean muscle, then stop wasting your valuable effort and money.

We can all use more of that!<br /><br />In today’s information age, we all get “brain overload,” whether you’re a student, professional, stay-at-home mom, whether you’re paying bills, solving problems, making decisions, struggling with complex issues. Sometimes your brainpower hits the skids!<br /><br />If you've ever felt like you're mentally running on empty, your short-term memory is unreliable, or you’re feeling a bit down and out…you need a BRAIN FUEL BOOST!<br />Action Whey is in a class of its own for brain fuel because it’s a food. One of the best ways to ensure mental alertness is to start your day with a serving of Action Whey. Quality whey protein like ours can have very beneficial effects on brain power in terms of increasing alertness and brain function, reducing stress, and making you feel better overall. <br />Here's why: Action Whey is a superior source for high levels of biologically-active Alpha-lactalbumin, a major sub-factor found in whey that has a very high tryptophan content. Studies have shown that consuming a dietary protein enriched in tryptophan improved coping ability, most likely through alterations in brain serotonin. Elevated levels of serotonin in the body often result in the relief of depression, as well as a substantial reduction in pain sensitivity, anxiety and stress.<br /><br /><br />Whey Protein Also Improves Memory<br />Recently, researchers wanted to find out if whey protein could improve cognitive performance under stress, thought to be affected in part by brain serotonin levels. <br />As the other studies found, whey protein increased serotonin levels by dramatically increasing tryptophan levels. Findings showed that those prone to stress may benefit greatly from whey and other nutrients known to raise serotonin levels. Also interesting was a significant improvement in memory test performance in the stress-vulnerable subjects.<br /> <br />BUT BUYER BEWARE!!!!<br />Levels of Alpha-lactalbumin and other important subfractions can vary greatly and depend on how the whey protein is processed. Many whey products on the market contain very little of these brain savers because they have been highly damaged.<br />Action Whey is a superior source for high levels of biologically-active Alpha-lactalbumin.<br />So drink up, and cheer up!

Whether this be on the military battlefield or the business battlefield most people were not informed of the tactics or plans of the leaders. It was always done on a “need to know basis”. People were motivated by a higher objective which may or may not have been the true objective or plan of those in charge. People were basically lead in the direction that those leading wanted. The details were always left out. <br /><br />Patton supposedly said “ it is not important for them to know when I am acting and when I am not. It is only important for me to know.”<br /><br />Hitler motivated and lead people based a belief that they were serving the “Fatherland” when in reality they were serving his plan.<br /><br />Enron lead their people to believe that what they were doing was for their own growth and prosperity. We now know the truth behind Enron.<br /><br />The Old leadership model was to “ convince people that the needs of the few, or one, were actually the needs of the many”<br /><br />The Leadership evolution is taking place and the leaders who do not adapt will fall short of being able to lead people and will be superseded by the new wave. Frustration will set in and then fear. You will be able to see it in their language and manners. Look for fear based language in these people, they are losing control. Stay away from them they no longer know how things work and will become more and more desperate.<br /> <br />People have grown up and look now to those who can lead them but will no longer do it blindly. They are looking for a higher goal to achieve and are willing to make the commitment. To lead these people however will take a new leader. One who can identify and understand that the individual's needs must correspond with the philosophy of the whole. Governments, Corporations and individuals must realize that people have grown up and if they want to lead, they will need to address these new leadership roles. Be prepared to answer the whys. Everyone is on a “need to know basis” now.Paulhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02890770848703743712noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4997317679332561533.post-54223513845692628162009-11-15T18:49:00.000-05:002010-05-18T22:45:29.369-04:00Emerald Express: A Shining Star of HopeEmerald Express: A Shining Star of Hope<br /><br />In this economy where the G6 number of real unemployment now sits at 17.5%, many people are looking for new ways to earn a living. Jobs are scarce and people or just feed up with their life styles. More and more are looking for a new way. Emerald Express is a shining star for these people. A company built on Honesty, Integrity and Old fashion values appears on the horizon as a beacon of hope for many.<br /><br />Emerald Express was started a couple of years ago with the belief that a product which could provide a healthier life to people and also provide a means of earning a great living, to those who choose, would stand alone. The founders then set out to develop products which would not only make people feel better but would also actually make people healthier. They then designed a compensation plan unheard of in the business and which would also pay a full 50% retail commission.<br /><br />These founders were Jack Desotelle and Ron Mosher. Jack recently passed away but left a strong foundation for the company to be built on. Ron Mosher built and designed the compensation plan. His 25 years of experience of seeing what didn't work lead him to develop a compensation plan deigned for the distributors. It consists of not only a 50% retail commission but a structure unprecedented. A seamless uni-level and 3x10 matrix system which work together and separate to generate 8 income streams. This Compensation plan allows for income to be generated by those who want a full time income and by those who do not want to do anything except sell the product. There has never been are will be an emphasis on recruitment by Emerald Express. Getting people healthy is their primary goal. It is each individuals choice as to how they want to run their at home business. People can also become distributors for absolutely no cost or fees. <br /><br />Emerald Express is in a new phase now. Selected by “Insights” with Hugh Downs to be the only company featured in its Anti-Aging Anti-Oxidant series, it and its products should become known nation wide. Their quest for better health goes on and more things are expected in the near future.<br /><br />As this economy continues and more and more people find themselves part of the G6 number, Emerald Express stands as a beacon in the storm.<br /><br />The Economy of greed is over. It is now a time of self fulfillment and helping others. Emerald Express holds true to this philosophy.Paulhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02890770848703743712noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4997317679332561533.post-31470379334259291622009-08-15T18:23:00.001-04:002010-05-18T22:45:29.371-04:00<a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=pubmed&Cmd=Search&Term=%22Marshall%20K%22%5BAuthor%5D&itool=EntrezSystem2.PEntrez.Pubmed.Pubmed_ResultsPanel.Pubmed_DiscoveryPanel.Pubmed_RVAbstractPlus"><b></b></a><br /><h2><br /></h2>Paulhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02890770848703743712noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4997317679332561533.post-78299134533427820102009-08-15T18:13:00.004-04:002010-05-18T22:45:29.372-04:00Paulhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02890770848703743712noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4997317679332561533.post-40159559182856351952009-08-03T14:53:00.003-04:002010-05-18T22:45:29.374-04:00Paulhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02890770848703743712noreply@blogger.com1
