I told you this story was going to lead into a big modern secret. Well it is. I want to tell you, you see, that one of the major step's we now have is that we know all about nutrients and the way they can be taken as extra supplements for extra health benefits. They can fill in holes or gaps in our diet and they can also take it on further. We know that certain nutrients are beneficial to health. So if we take supplement with the basic nutrients and all of the extra ones that are beneficial, we can get some extraordinary results. But there is something very new about all of what I am telling you here about supplements. This has NEVER been done before. Yes, you heard me. There have been some decent supplements about for years, all right. They are helpful to health and so on. But they are just small helpers, that’s all they are. They aren't the kind of mega modern advanced supplements I am going to tell you about now. The supplement I am going to tell you about now has only come along in the last few years. There are great problems in the supplement and alternative industry, you see. It goes back to what I told you before. It’s not in the interests of the wider industry to properly study these areas of health, so the progress is slow. And it is also a fact that there are many dishonest and shoddy companies knocking about. They can literally sell you anything they want, and say anything about what they sell because the area isn’t regulated. All they have to do is put in a little disclaimer, as all companies are required to do by law, and away they go. The chances of them getting prosecuted are slim, so long as their product is a certain herb, vitamin or whatever. But they might not tell you that it is of such a low quality that you might as well go out and chew some grass, you know? The other problem is that the science is very thin on the ground. It is very hard to get right to the bottom of this area and really know what you are doing - which is why this company I am about to tell you about is so unique. They are just amazing, in every way. They are the first of the major supplement companies, trust me. As your view continues to expand consider carefully what this man has done. Warren Matthews is the founder and chairman of a company called xtend-life. He is an amazing man. He’s one of the sharpest minds I've ever come across. What he has achieved with his company is quite remarkable. He and his company, I hope, are going to revolutionise the whole supplement industry. Let me tell you how he started it all. It began around eight years ago when he retired from his life long business. He was very successful in the boating and sailing industry. But he wanted to get out of that business and start a new one, in health. He always had a passion for health and all it entails. His son also had a passion for health too. So they setup the business together. It was to be a family business. So anyway, Warren being the fella I've come to know through his writings, products and by talking to him via email, wanted to create the best company he possibly could. In fact, he was getting into this business first and foremost to take care of his own health the way he wanted, and that of his family and friends. Those were his aims. So he set about finding the very best of what he could do in making a health company. I don’t know when he decided, but he wanted to first and foremost become a supplement company. Maybe that was his only intention from the beginning. He started by travelling all over the world visiting supplement companies and manufacturers. He wanted to find out how they do their work etc. He wanted to know everything he could about setting up in this business… but what he found shocked and appalled him. He found out just how dishonest many of the companies in the alternative sector are. They often use old and often outdated machinery, cut corners on ingredients and don’t really know what they are doing at all in putting together quality supplements. Of course, he found out that many of them just plain lie about what they are producing and what it will do for their customers. Warren was determined not to be like them. He wanted a real company that he would be proud of, that would produce the very best supplements money could buy, for himself, his family and the rest of his customers. He began to learn more about the manufacturing he wanted to do. By chance he then met Dr. Munem. Dr. Munem is one the best bio-chemists in the world. He also happens to know more about how to make quality supplements than any other person in the world. He used to work for the pharmaceutical companies, until he changed sides. He stopped doing that work because he stopped believing in it. He realised how dangerous the drugs he was producing were to people’s health. So anyway, they were very pleased with each other and Warren offered Dr. Munem the kind of job he wanted. He has his own department for research and development, and they produce the very best supplements in the world. And they also do them at affordable prices. Not only are they the best, but they are also not out to screw their customers. They are as honest and professional a company as you will see anywhere, in any industry. I've studied so many health companies and these are the best I've ever come across. They are fantastic. They also have a customer service that is just impeccable. And Warren himself is most generous to deal with. He also does a blog which is very informative on many aspects of health, and stays up to date with all the latest research. But anyway, what makes the supplements that they make so special? Well, it comes down to some very important factors. Remember I told you on my website that 98% of all supplements are useless? Well, it’s true, and I'm going to tell you why now. It’s simple really. It comes down to the expertise of the people formulating the supplement, and their honesty. They have to be honest. That's the starting point. Okay, so what are the factors in a great supplement? First of all the supplement has to be natural. What does that mean? Well, the substances and nutrients used have to be bio available, and they have to have the co-factors found in nature around them. Otherwise the nutrients are not going to be used properly, and they may even be harmful. Yes, it’s true. You may have heard of some of the studies that have been done recently that are exposing the supplement industry. They are saying that some supplements are dangerous, but they are neglecting to say why, which does a great disservice to the truth. The problem starts with cheap isolated synthetic substances, but it is only the beginning. The next factor is the synergy of the ingredients. A great supplement can have anywhere form 10 to 90 different nutrients, between vitamins, co-factors, flavanoids, bio-flavanoids, amino-acids, herbs and special ingredients. These are going to interact and the formulator has to know how they are going to react… what substances may be formed in the body, and how the substances will be used in the body… how the different nutrients will help each other or form a substance your body does not want or need… or even a substance that could be dangerous to you. All of this is important. This is why it is madness to buy 20-30 different bottles of different nutrients and take them all together every day. You could be doing yourself more harm than good, even if they are all natural. There are also dosages. Dr. Munem has found, for example, that by combining certain nutrients at certain dosages, effectiveness can be increased as much as 15 times, and this goes for many nutrients. This means they can reduce costs too. That’s one reason they are able to do things as affordably as they do. They are really in a different class. The next factor is the actual ingredients themselves. The formulators have to understand what nutrients to use, and in what quantity. They have to have vast experience to get this right and to get the synergy right. Dr. Munem is one of the few people on earth who can do this. Combined with Warren's drive for the company they have, they do remarkable things with health. This is a company of the future. Okay, another part of the nutrients is the actual quality. This is another huge talking point, because, after all, if the nutrients are shoddy then what good are they going to be? Most supplement manufacturers don't even check the quality of the nutrients. Xtend-life only insist on top notch quality raw materials, so that they can ensure full potency in every tablet or capsule. They sometimes import from distant countries, just to get this right. And lastly there is the manufacturing. The equipment has to be of the highest quality. Dr. Munem has sophisticated testing procedures, for these supplements. He can test them at a deep cellular and molecular level to see exactly what they are doing in the body. He can see what they do in the cells and whether they are performing safely and with maximum potency. This allows further development. Xtend-life are continually improving their existing products and creating new ones. They also have top notch equipment for ensuring the blending of each tablet is consistent, so that the quantities of each ingredient are the same in every capsule. They also check each batch for purity or freedom from contamination. These factors I have just told you about; would you believe me if I told you that 98% of all supplement manufacturers are worse than poor in all of these regards? And should you trust them as a result? I don’t think so. There are some good supplement manufacturers, and they do a good job. But even they would fall down markedly on some of the scores. They wouldn’t have the same measurement equipment of molecular level activity, and monitoring. Nor would they have the same quality of ingredients - that is very rare indeed. Though some companies would have good quality and would have a basic understanding of synergy. But not at the level I would recommend, if I'm being honest. Of course, you can try many different supplements, and read up on this yourself. It is up to you to find what is best for you. But I will warn you against one thing and that is combining loads of different ingredients independently. You don’t know what you might be mixing. And I also can’t guarantee the results that I am guaranteeing you from using Xtend-Life supplements. I know that they do what they are intended to do, and have a hugely positive effect on every user. As soon as you begin with them they are nourishing your organs and your brain. This will have a huge effect on your health. Even if you have a perfect diet a supplement is still needed. Here’s why: The modern diet is not perfect, even if you do everything right. There will still be one or two issues. I told you earlier about the ratio of omega 3 to omega 6. Well, that ratio is so out of whack in the modern diet, that even if you are eating a perfect diet, then it will still need some help. Yes, it’s true. I know it can be a bit much to take in, but it is that important. This ratio can be addressed with fish oil. So along with a perfect diet, you would still need to be taking a fish oil supplement, if you are to enjoy optimum health. Now, I would further encourage the use of a multi-nutrient. I would recommend this extra supplement, because it is an extra insurance for your health. The supplement I have told you about is so good and so powerful that it will be phenomenal extra insurance or protection for your health. But there’s more to this. I am writing this book to give people the information for optimum health. I want you to have truly extraordinary results. I know this is possible. And taking both fish oil and the multi-nutrient, as well as having at least a good diet, will power you to excellent results - the kind of results that have never been possible before. Remember, the Okinawans have a good diet. And look at the results they have achieved. They did not need to address the fish oil problem, because they didn’t live in the modern world where the ratio has been messed up, but they possibly didn’t have what could be described as the perfect diet. Nor did they have the power of an amazing supplement, to power them to amazing prevention and optimum health. So this is what is possible to you, now, today, thanks to modern science and understanding. You can achieve phenomenal results. Remember too that the Okinawans still have some problems. Not all of them got the results we are talking about here. They still had some heart attacks, and strokes etc. And that is because despite the excellent health they had, it could have been better. I am showing you how it can be better. You just have to make sense of it in your mind and then act. It’s as simple as that. Okay, it’s time now to talk about those benefits. What are they exactly, and what will it do for your life? That’s a good question, isn’t it? Well there is an untold list of proven unseen benefits you will be receiving. You can go here and search the list of ingredients and the studies that have been done into each of them and their positive actions in the body. This will then result in the following seen benefits: It’s a little hard to quantify this because there are literally hundreds if not thousands of bodily processes aided by getting all the nutrients you need. To list all of these here is beyond the scope of this book, but think of it this way… this is one of the cornerstones of health. Your cells need nutrients to function the way they are supposed to, and they need them if they are to achieve optimum function. This in turn will result in fully and healthily functioning organs, and this in turn will result in fully functioning and healthy bodily systems. And what does this result in? Well, it results in excellent health for you. You can then get scientific on it, and see what happens there. Again you could go into thousands of specifics. But since this is an anti-aging book, let’s look at specific anti-aging benefits; when your cells are functioning correctly this will help your hormonal system greatly. What happens is your hormones will be produced and released to your body. And they will be at balanced and optimum levels, at every age. Yes, this is not something that should greatly diminish as you get older. However, this is one of the main problems with the aging process we have become accustomed to in western society. We are simple not supposed to go downhill with our health. Sure, we may not be able to win marathons anymore or even compete at a brilliant level, but we can still have vibrant energy and feel healthy. That’s what this supplement can help to do for you. Another factor in this is free radicals, we hear a lot about this with regard to aging. It is certainly a factor too. Free radicals are another word for floating toxins in the body. They need to be neutralised and gotten rid of. To do this you need anti-oxidants. But due to lessoning function as we get older we actually need help in this regard. This multi-nutrient is the most powerful anti-oxidants you could ever get your hands on. Just one of the ingredients is the anti-oxidant equivalent of eating 30 bananas. That’s powerful stuff. You may have asked yourself at some point here, ‘well, what about whole food supplements? Shouldn’t they be better, given the fact that they are natural, in terms of synergy and so on?’ This is true alright and in a perfect world this would be possible. Warren checked this out, as he wanted to produce the best supplements he could, no matter what the cost. But what he found was that creating one of these supplements is both a waste of time and money. When you freeze dry natural foods, they lose one tenth of their nutrients immediately. So to put this in logical terms… if you take these supplements, you could get the same value from eating an extra serving of fruit or veg per day… instead of paying exorbitant prices (whole food are triple the price) for a supplement that will only that and add in some extra herbs. What Warren can do is provide the nutrients in the most powerful way possible, and they are able to create natural synergy, because they have the knowledge and expertise to do it. They can also do it even more efficiently, as they understand the process. I think of their tablets as a superhero food. It can do amazing things because it is packed with anti-oxidants, provides a broad spectrum of around 80 of the nutrients that your body needs… including vitamins, minerals, trace elements, amino acids, neuronutrients, bioflavonoids, carotenoids, herbal extracts, enzymes and other complementary co-factor ingredients - all put together in a safe and powerful way to help power you to optimum health. They are really in a different league.

Herbs are natural whole substances that have a natural synergy and so can combine just fine. You don't have to be a bio-nutrient scientist to make a herbal cocktail. The question is of quality and purity. But Alex has commented on this and I'm sure he is aware that the quality has to be good and that you can't have contamination. And despite many problems with his business he does seem to me to be an honourable and honest man. So I would say GP and SCF are are only beneficial.
