Nutrition that works to keep you well!

a harvest of “Nutrition that works” to help improve health and maintain well-being on a daily basis, as well as an opportunity for Members to earn an income.

There are so many ways—from time-tested home meetings to social media— to promote Nutrition that works! AIM Canada is doing its part with spring and fall meetings across Canada as well as participating in special events that bring widespread attention to beneficial products like Red Rush and Peak Endurance (see Pride Festival below). If you have event opportunities in your area and need suggestions and support, call the Vancouver office at 1-888-343-9977.

We all benefit by sharing the harvest!

Time to Harvest the OpportunitiesYou never know who might be open to AIM’s message. For example, I was sitting on the sundeck, relaxing on a summer evening, when I heard my name being called. It was my neighbour—a retired marine. From time to time, he has asked me various questions about nutrition, such as can you eat the green tops of carrots and radishes? He also mentioned that many years ago, he had been taking a green product. He had been hunting around for it but could not find any. He still had a partially filled jar that he had bought more than a decade ago in Missouri. It had been in storage for many years among his personal possessions, which were delivered to his house just a few months ago. He went home to get the jar and returned with AIM Barleygreen. What a thrill! We were both surprised. He is now ordering AIM BarleyLife® and talking to me about taking other AIM products.

Now that autumn has arrived, it reminds me of its seasonal harvest of nutritional goodness from the earth. Through all seasons, AIM offers

From the Editor

AIM Canada staff promoted Red Rush™ on the shores of Sunset Beach in Vancouver during the Pride Festival on August 3, 2014. The Red Rush canopy tent and cooler stood out among the variety of vendors, attracting an overwhelming number of interested attendees who purchased

chilled single shots of Red Rush at a special offer of $3 a bottle. The Pride Parade attracted over half

a million people, providing an incredible opportunity to advertise AIM products like Red Rush and AIM Peak

Endurance™ to the general public. It was a marvellous, summer-day event enjoyed by families and friends—people from all walks of life from all over the world.

The AIM Companies™ has grown worldwide by offering the nutritional value of BarleyLife® with its natural source of vitamins, minerals, enzymes, antioxidants, phytonutrients, and chlorophyll. Taking daily servings of these nutritious greens is one of the best ways to remain healthy.

The treasure of beneficial nutrients in BarleyLife gets to the core of your physical being by nourishing healthy cell replication; creating healthy cells is at the centre of wellness. BarleyLife protects your cells with an army of antioxidants that neutralize the damaging effects of free radicals. Its anti-inflammatory properties further defend your body against inflammation—the root cause of disease. The cleansing nature of BarleyLife helps to shield you from toxins that are literally escorted out of your body by nutrients such as chlorophyll.

With all of the attention that healthy nutrition is getting worldwide, it is always a great thing having more and more crossovers from the medical profession. In other words, when an M.D. embraces a similar philosophy to AIM’s “Nutrition That Works!” you can feel like there is hope for all concerned with their health. Michael Greger is one such doctor who can be found at www.nutritionfacts.org, featuring cutting-edge videos of nutritional information.

In several videos, Dr. Greger explores the positive effect of beet juice on physical performance and on the body’s use of oxygen to create energy. It appears that the concentrated vegetable nitrate in beets makes the body even more efficient at producing energy. This was discovered by testing the physical performances of eight, bike-riding males before and after drinking beet juice. The riders could do the exact same amount of work with less oxygen when they drank nitrate-rich beet juice.

Prior to these tests using beet juice, there was no substance that could increase energy extraction from oxygen. The vegetable nitrate in beet juice succeeds where nothing else has before because the body converts it to nitric oxide (NO), which acts as a vasodilator that relaxes the arteries and improves circulation.

The Red Rush Nitric Oxide Boost is what any body needs to improve physical endurance. Providing 500 mg of vegetable nitrate in each 74 ml bottle, Red Rush can help your body to do more with less oxygen. How efficient!

Nourish, Protect, and Cleanse withChlorophyll

It’s the stuff that makes plants green, and chlorophyll can help cleanse you to wellness, providing you consume enough. BarleyLife makes that easy.

Along with having wound-healing, antiseptic, and anti-inflammatory properties, chlorophyll is a natural cleanser. For example, a clinical trial published in a Linus Pauling Institute newsletter (2002) revealed the effectiveness of chlorophyll in blocking the human uptake of aflatoxin-B

1, a liver carcinogen

found in moldy foods such as peanuts. Chlorophyll binds to carcinogens such as aflatoxin-B

1 and cleanses them from the

body. Now that’s a cleanser you want working for you from the inside out!

Take BarleyLife’s green profusion of nutrients to nourish, protect, and cleanse your body on a daily basis.

The word arthritis may not mean anything to you unless you or someone you care about suffers from its debilitating aches and lifestyle restraints. On the other hand, with incidences of arthritis on the rise, even in children, you might want to take a few preventative steps to avoid this painful condition so that you don’t become an arthritic statistic.

The Canadian Arthritis Society reports that “over 4.6 million Canadian adults (one in six Canadians aged 15 years and older) report having arthritis. By 2036, this number is expected to grow to an estimated 7.5 million Canadian adults (one in five).”

If you are already struggling with one or more of the many forms of joint (arthro) inflammation (itis), AIM recommends 3-step action: Fix, Fight, and Function.

Fix the source of the joint problem with the rebuilding materials found in AIM Frame Essentials®, AIM BarleyLife®, and AIMega®. Frame Essentials provides a building block of cartilage—glucosamine—and MSM, a sulfur compound that helps strengthen joint tissues. BarleyLife gives you a wealth of nutritional support required to help repair damage. AIMega offers omega-3 essential fatty acids (EFAs) that build and repair healthy cell membranes and maintain optimal cellular function.

Fight inflammation with the boswellia in Frame Essentials, the plant nutrients in BarleyLife, and the inflammation-reducing omega-3 in AIMega. Inflammation puts the “itis” in arthritis, and Frame Essentials, BarleyLife, and AIMega are anti-inflammatory team players. Fibre also fans anti-inflammatory assistance, so eat high-fiber whole foods and supplement with AIM Herbal Fiberblend® or AIM fit ’n fiber™.

Function better by applying heat to affected areas, losing weight (if you are well above your ideal poundage), and doing some low-impact exercise (walking, swimming, tai chi, etc.) at least twenty minutes a day. To avoid even more pain, stretch gently to warm up before exercising. Keep in mind that both BarleyLife and AIMega help to nutritionally restore energy required for physical activity, so you will function better by taking these greens and EFAs.

For those who want to keep one or more steps ahead of arthritis and other life-hampering conditions, let the three Daily Essentials™ be your nutritional guide on the wellness path. You can’t go wrong by supplementing with greens from BarleyLife, fibre from Herbal Fiberblend or AIM fit ’n fiber, and EFAs from AIMega. They’re essential, daily prevention of whatever may ail you!

What’s your Sign ... of Magnesium Deficiency?You may or may not be deficient in magnesium—a mineral that is required for over 300 enzymatic reactions in your body. However, given the prevalence of its bodily use, it’s quite possible that you could use a little more. But how do you know if magnesium is something you lack? Let’s look at some of the signs...

10 Common Signs of Magnesium Deficiency: 1 Tense muscles or muscle cramps and spasms 2 Headaches 3 Insomnia or poor sleep patterns 4 Low energy levels 5 Irregular heartbeats 6 Lack of strength 7 Anxiety 8 Irritability 9 Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) 10 Poor memory 11 Cold hands and feet (Oops! That’s 11 signs ... and there’s a whole

lot more ...)

So what do you do if you think you might be magnesium-deficient? You can correct it in magnificence style...

AIM Mag-nificence™ offers three absorb-it-through-your-skin options to increase your magnesium intake: Crystals, Lotion, and Spray. Take a soothing bath (or soak your feet) using the crystals or apply the lotion or spray on your skin to reverse a magnesium deficiency or maintain sufficient levels.

I have several clients with arthritis or arthritis-like inflammation and pain. Frame Essentials has been an integral part of their care, as it keeps joints pain-free and mobile. My clients can tell when they stop taking it for

even just a few days. Also, my son works in disaster recovery services and does a lot of heavy hauling and lifting. When his joints get sore, Frame Essentials helps to rapidly calm down the pain. I keep it on hand all the time.
