Malaysian Deputy Prime Minister gets SCANNED!




Deputy Prime Minister of Malaysia is Scanned!


Good Day everyone! I just thought I would pass along the news about the great things that are taking place with Pharmanex. The BioPhotonic Scanner is reaching more global markets everyday. In fact, with the new addition of the S2 (BioPhotonic Scanner), our message for achieving optimal health and the importance of knowing your "number", is spreading like WILDFIRE!

With this incredible, globally patented, Nobel Prize Winning, technology, people are becoming empowered. More and more, as people get their numbers as a result of being "scanned", they are becoming proactive in their own health. They now have a "bio-marker" to measure the results of their efforts.

Dato’ Seri Najib Tun Razak, the current Deputy Prime Minister of Malaysia was recently introduced (on or about March 23, 2006) to the BioPhotonic Scanner and the importance of "knowing your number." The office of the Deputy Prime Minister would be the equivalent of an American Vice President's position. Dato’ Seri Najib Tun Razak is seen in the photo smiling as his hand is being scanned by the S2 BioPhotonic Scanner.

This is another clear example about the "power of proof" through science. When it comes to individual health, and the direct affect a product may have on one's health, it is extremely important to be accurate. The "marketing hype" that other companies base their products on, only get so far when put to true scientific and clinical study. AND, certainly not into a public official's office as high as the Deputy Prime Minister of Malaysia.


With over 175 full time scientists on staff, research and clinical studies published in peer reviewed journals, our products speak for themselves. We just like to use the BioPhotonic Scanner as our (!) exclamation point.

Nature's Sunshine Products Inc. In HUGE Financial Trouble



Those of you that read this blog with any degree of regularity, know that I waste no time to point out turmoil with companies in the nutritional supplement industry. It is my belief that most companies within the nutritional supplement industry, are full of nothing more than marketing hype and absolutely no scientific basis to substantiate any of their products or product claims. In addition, most companies do not even have the financial infrastructure to support scientific research and development for quality products, let alone conduct scientific studies to see if their products even work.

The following report from the Associated Press about one such company, is just one more reason to seriously consider Pharmanex and it's family of products, when searching for the right nutritional supplements to assist you in achieving optimal health. Make no mistake, the product lines offered by Pharmanex are the most comprehensive nutritional supplements on the market today. They have been scientifically proven to work. Our products are science based, with numerous clinical trials and published scientific studies that are available to the public. We substantiate everything we do, with science.

Nature's Sunshine Retracts Financials

Monday March 20, 2:38 pm ET


Nature's Sunshine Products Says Financial Statements Should Not Be Relied Upon

PROVO, Utah (AP) -- Health care product maker Nature's Sunshine Products Inc. on Monday said past financial statements are no longer reliable and warned that it may be delisted from the Nasdaq if it is unable to get a filing extension from the market.

Shares of Nature's Sunshine plummeted on the news.

In a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the company stated that an ongoing investigation by the company's audit committee and an independent consultant into "certain of its foreign operations" and past financial statements has found "internal control weaknesses" and "potential violations of law."

Based on preliminary results from an ongoing investigation, the company said, statements for the fiscal years 2002 to 2004 and the first three quarters of 2005, should not be relied upon and may have to be restated.

In addition to retracting the financial statements above, the preliminary report also recommended the termination of undisclosed employees and certain officers.

The company has "contacted relevant authorities in the United States with respect to the potential violations of law outlined in the preliminary report," the filing said.

"At this time, it is impossible to accurately predict whether, and if so, to what extent, any prior periods may need to be restated," the filing continued.

The Nasdaq has granted Nature's Sunshine an extension to March 31, to file its report for the quarter ended Sept. 30. The company does expect to meet that deadline and intends to seek another extension. However, if the Nasdaq panel denies the request and delists Nature's Sunshine, the liquidity of its stock would be hurt, the company warned.

Shares of Nature's Sunshine sank $2.59, or 16 percent, to $13.90 during midday trading on the Nasdaq. The stock has traded in a 52-week range of $12.50 to $23.89.

Big Business in China


The Scanner S2 and Superfruit G3 Launched to Huge Fanfare in China



March 10, 2006 — The next generation Pharmanex Scanner S2, and G3 Gac Superfruit Blend with Lipocarotenes™, were recently launched in China. The launch of these products in China created substantial media attention, with over 60 influential members of the media attending the BioPhotonic Scanner press conference held in Beijing. The press conference was a huge success, producing dozens of encouraging responses from the media. The event was broadcasted on CCTV, one of the local television stations, and received positive coverage in over 50 articles.




The S2—extraordinary science personalized, revolutionized, and simplified





The less restricting, faster S2 is everything you've hoped for, and more! With double the speed and half the size of the previous scanner, the S2 empowers not only your business, but also your customers. With the new S2, you can scan practically anywhere so more people gain the knowledge they need to make wise choices regarding their health.

G3 is a nutrient-rich juice from the prized gac “superfruit” of southern Asia, whose nutritional benefits have been scientifically demonstrated to protect cells. Among gac's potent phytonutrients are a unique and highly-bioavailable form of carotenoids called “lipocarotenes™” that provide powerful antioxidant protection while supporting healthy immune function. The G3 formula was developed with 3 additional superfruits-Chinese lycium, Siberian pineapple, and cili fruit-that synergistically provide exponential benefits. G3 has a refreshing flavor that is deliciously sweet, slightly tart and can be enjoyed daily by everyone in the family.

Soy Supplements Increase Bone Mass


Study Reveals that Soy Supplements Increase Bone Mass



March 2, 2006 – The Journal of Nutritional Biochemistry reports a significant increase of bone mineral density (BMD) and bone mineral content (BMC) in women who consumed soy isoflavones. Women in the first decade of menopause experience a dramatic loss in bone mass as a result of a loss of estrogen.

Researchers from Taipei Medical University, Taiwan, tested women who were in the early post-menopausal phase of their lives. “In our study, compared to the general loss of BMD in the control group, the BMD of L1-3 [lumbar vertebrae] and the BMC of the trochanter [thigh bone] significantly increased in the 100 mg isoflavone group,” noted researcher Shih-Yi Huang.



Estera™ Phase III



Estera™ Phase III features 50 mgs a day of genistein, a specific isoflavone proven to support bone health. For women in their post-menopause years, Estera™ Phase III Maintenance Formula is a patent-pending blend of phytoestrogens (plant-based compounds), flaxseed lignans and indole 3-carbinol which work with the liver to help promote a healthy ratio of estrogen metabolites. In addition Estera™ Phase III supports cardiovascular health, muscle, skin tissue, and cognitive function, and helps maintain healthy lipid profiles in postmenopausal women.
