Inflammation is your

body’s protective response

to infection or injury. Yet

this normal response can become

a chronic condition when it occurs

even though there is no threat to

your body. Long-term inflamma-

tion can damage your body tissue

and create disease.

“Inflammation is a key under-

pinning of every disease process,”

writes Jack Challem, personal

nutrition coach and author of

The Inflammation Syndrome.

Furthermore, the dominant diet

in North America consists of pro-

inflammatory foods and drinks

that are high in trans-fats, sug-

ars, and refined carbohydrates.

This low-quality nutrition induces

inflammation and creates a body

environment where disease

thrives. According to Challem,

this inflammation-promoting diet

leads to insulin resistance, high

levels of body fat, high blood

pressure, accelerated aging, and

inflammatory diseases, including

allergies, Alzheimer’s, heart dis-

ease, cancer, and arthritis. Many

experts agree that poor nutrition

depresses the immune system and

opens the door to life-threatening

illnesses.

The unnatural nature of arthritis Inflammation is a major factor in arthritis – joint inflammation. Arthritis

comes in over a 100 different conditions ranging from tennis elbow to crip-

pling rheumatoid arthritis. The most common form is osteoarthritis, which

affects the joints that bear your weight, such as hips, knees, and feet. But it can

also cause pain in your finger and thumb joints. Even though it is classified as a

non-inflammatory arthritis, inflammation is a factor.

The pain of osteoarthritis results from the breakdown and wearing away of

cartilage – a continually remodeled, durable tissue that covers the ends of your

bones. Cartilage is kept slippery by synovial fluid. If you think of your body as

a machine, synovial fluid would be the oil your body needs to keep your move-

able parts in good working order. However, the synovial lining and fluid, which

lubricates your joints and keeps your cartilage smooth, strong, and healthy, can

become inflamed as the disease progresses. If your cartilage degenerates, the

ends of your bones rub together, causing pain.

Osteoarthritis affects one in 8 Americans. Up to 90 percent over the age of 75

are affected by osteoarthritis but it is starting to show up in those much younger –

even children. Whatever your age, osteoarthritis is not a natural fact of life. And

whether the risk factors are dietary, hereditary, injury-induced, or from being

overweight, your actions can help to prevent its onset or relieve its symptoms.

Avoiding the pain of arthritisCommon sense tells us to eat nutritional meals that include several daily serv-

ings of fruits and vegetables, which promote alkalinity. Maintaining an alkaline

body environment is one of your best defenses against inflammatory diseases

like arthritis.

More common sense tells us to exercise regularly. Similar to the modern

diet that lacks many of our essential nutrients for good health, modern life-

styles eliminate the movement that is so necessary to keep your body in shape

and your joints healthy. Sitting in front of computers for work or play is not a

physical workout. You have to find some form of exercise that gets you moving

regularly.

AIM’s common sense confirms the benefits of whole-food concentrates and

natural health products that add nutrients to your diet and target spe-

cific health issues, including arthritis.

AIM defense against arthritisAIM Frame Essentials® combines glucosamine, Boswellia ser-

rata, and methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) for a synergistic formula

The unnecessary pain of



that helps to relieve osteoarthritic pain,

whether you have debilitating joint sore-

ness or tennis elbow.

Glucosamine contributes to the for-

mation of cartilage, tendons, and syn-

ovial fluid and helps to relieve joint pain.

As you age, the body produces less glu-

cosamine. Dr. Michael Murray, author of

the Encyclopedia of Natural Medicine,

defines osteoarthritis as “a degenerative

condition where the body does not manu-

facture sufficient quantities of cartilage.

Eventually you get bone rubbing on bone.”

Murray recommends supplementing with

glucosamine, which “leads to growth and

regeneration of the cartilage.”

Boswellia serrata provides boswellic

acids that are known to maintain blood

supply to inflamed joints, reduce joint

swelling, and reduce pain.

Sulfur is a mineral that is naturally

present in every cell of your body, and

most notably in the cartilage. MSM may

help to reduce pain and maintain healthy

joints.

AIMega® provides a neces-

sary 2:1 ratio of omega-3 and

-6 essential fatty acids (EFAs).

Essential for the health and

function of all of your cells,

EFAs may also play a piv-

otal role in balancing the inflammatory

response of the body.

Whole-food con centrated greens, such

as AIM LeafGreens® and AIM BarleyLife®,

contribute to your overall well-

ness by providing a

wealth of nutritional

support. Their alka-

linizing effect on

your body goes a

long way in keeping chronic inflamma-

tion at bay.

This combination of products taken in

the correct amounts may combat arthritis.

Dancing in the Streets (or at least the backyard …)

When it comes to relieving the pain

of rheumatoid arthritis, the whole-

food concentrate BarleyLife proved to

be the answer for AIM Member Christopher Hancock, who

was diagnosed with this

debilitating form of

arthritis back in 1985. At

that time, Christopher

had no idea how much this disease would affect him and his family.

Severe pain, joint deformity, and fatigue eventually required that he

quit his job in 2000.

His pain was alleviated by medication, but over the years

Christopher had to try different drugs after a drug stopped being

effective. “Doctors warned me that everyone and their uncle would

try to make me better through some ancient formula or secret that had

been handed down through their families,” says Christopher. “Well,

when you are in severe pain, you try other things, and I tried several,

which always ended in disappointment.”

In 2006 Christopher’s good friend, AIM Director Ken Campbell, gave him a couple of free canisters

of BarleyLife. “To be honest,” says Christopher, “I

thought, oh well, here we go again, another secret for-

mula that will have me dancing in the streets.”

At first he did not notice any great improvements and was ready to

stop taking it. After attending an AIM meeting, it was suggested that

Christopher give BarleyLife more time. This is the case with many

severe conditions and natural medicine – it can take time to feel the

health improvements.

After about four or five months, Christopher noticed that his

energy level was up and his pain level was down. “I also found that

I was sleeping better,” he explains, “With less pain, I didn’t wake up

every time I had to turn over in bed.” Rest allows the body to repair

itself. Christopher also found that he could go shopping and be on his

feet for four to five hours.

And things got even better. “In 2008, I built a forty-five-foot-

long wooden fence in my backyard, practically all by myself. Before

BarleyLife, I could barely pick up a hammer,” says Christopher. “Now

I’m not saying that BarleyLife is a miracle remedy for everyone, I can

only tell you about my experience and how much it has relieved my

pain and improved my energy levels.”

You do not have to suffer. AIM provides natural solutions to help

relieve arthritis or prevent its onset.

This testimonial should not be construed as representing results

everyone can achieve.

When it comes to The AIM Companies™, some Members use business cards or testimonies

to share information and promote good health. Mr. Hua Te

Su uses the thing he knows best: authentic Chinese cuisine.

When many people think of Chinese food, they picture

the popular Americanized version: fried, greasy dumplings,

buttery noodles, and sugary sauces. The terms “healthy”

and “Chinese cuisine” don’t typically fit together. But Mr.

Su’s secret to a healthier menu is in the barley: the AIM

BarleyLife®, to be specific.

Mr. Su began apprenticing under a Shanghaiese chef in

Taipei at the age of 14. He lived in the restaurant, spoke the

Shanghaiese language, and learned the techniques for making

ancient Shanghaiese cuisine. He and his wife Helen opened

their first Chinese restaurant in Seattle, Washington, in

1990, and they opened up a larger restaurant in Issaquah,

Washington, in 1997.

The search for pure, good nutrition is what led him to

discover the endless benefits of barley. Mr. Su had learned

the extensive nutritional value of barley, and in 1993, he

started looking for a product to use in his dishes. One day,

a neighbor came in to eat and saw Mr. Su working hard at

juicing barley, so she introduced him to AIM’s green barley

powder.

Today, Mr. Su uses one-half of a canister of BarleyLife

for every 10 pounds of flour for his hand-shaven noodles

and homemade pot stickers; both are very popular among

customers, who say they like the barley flavor. Mr. Su and

his family also eat the noodles and pot stickers themselves.

Mr. Su now has two restaurants in Seattle and one in

Issaquah. His children – Kathy, Betty, Christine, and Dan

– all work in different capacities of the family

business. Mr. Su’s daughter Kathy Tsow is an

AIM Associate Director. One of the res-

taurants in Seattle sells nothing but noodles.

They used to sell white noodles, pumpkin

noodles, carrot noodles, and barley noodles,

but now only the white and barley noodles are

sold, since those are the most popular among

customers. Mr. Su also teaches a monthly

class on how to make the noodles, and some

of the students are also his customers.

When Mr. Su places an order with AIM, it is usually

80 canisters of BarleyLife powder at a time. He displays a

container of BarleyLife on the counter of the restaurant in

Issaquah, and there is a picture of AIM’s flagship product on

the menu. The BarleyLife dishes are described as “barley

green hand-shaven noodles.” He says he has had so much

success with using the barley dough that he is afraid of the

customers’ reactions if he were to change the name.

Shanghai Garden has been publicly recognized numer-

ous times for its unique and savory dishes. Other than the

barley noodles and pot stickers, some of the most popular

dishes are beef with dried orange flavor, crisp shrimp with

chili sauce, and pan-fried scallops. Mr. Su also makes his

own ice cream, experimenting with flavors like sour plum

and dried dragon fruit.

Mr. Su has been invited to attend a recognition cere-

mony for his restaurants in Las Vegas more than once but

has always turned down the offers because he says he is

very busy. And because the

noodles and pot stickers with

BarleyLife have gotten so

many good reviews on the

internet, Mr. Su has received

order requests from other

states for several hundred

barley noodles per week.

Mr. Su and his family have

successfully proved that

cooking with barley can enrich a food’s taste and nutri-

tional value. Their healthy innovations have made a posi-

tive impact on an enormous amount of people, thanks to

Shanghai Garden and BarleyLife.

Life®Barley


Nine months ago, Marie Smith thought her sarcoidosis had

finally gotten the best of her. Her lungs were only functioning at 60 percent capacity, and she left the hospital expecting to die soon.

“I struggled to breathe and was not strong enough to

do anything for myself,” says Marie, an AIM Wholesale

Member from Southport, Florida. “My voice was weak

and my health was gone. I weighed 203 pounds, and

no matter what I tried in the past, the weight would

not come off. I no longer cared about my weight. I just

wanted to be healthy. My mind did not function well,

and I often felt like I was outside my body with no con-

trol over my actions. I also had panic attacks.

“I don’t drink, use tobacco, or take drugs, except when

prescribed, but in the last two months I had taken thousands

of dollars worth of medicine that the doctors wanted me

to try. Still no help, and I was having horrible reactions to

them.”

Marie’s disease had been taking a toll on her lungs for

almost a decade. Sarcoidosis, which causes swelling in the

lungs, lymph nodes, and organs, is typically treated with

drugs, so when that treatment didn’t work out, Marie

resigned herself to accept the inevitable.

Finally, in July of 2009, Marie asked God for help and was

reminded of an old book on Candida. She found

the book, called the number inside, and was

eventually connected with Chairman’s

Club Director Teresa Schumacher from

Saint George, Utah. Teresa set her up

with the AIM products, or what Marie

calls the “fantastic herbal program.”

“I started my new herbal program* the

first day of August, 2009,” Marie said. “After

one week, I was feeling a little better. After three weeks, I

was down to 175 pounds. Now I weigh 160 and feel great. I

am enjoying my new lifestyle. I may ‘fall’ once in a while, but

I try to hurry and get back up on the wagon.”

Marie said her thinking process is also better than it

has been in a very long time, and her friends and family

are excited about her recovery. Even her lungs have seen a

marked improvement since beginning with AIM products.

“I had another breathing test about a month ago. The

doctor came in and said, ‘Well, I don’t know what to say.

I expected that your lungs would be at 60 percent or even

less, but your lungs are functioning at 80 percent! I’ve never

seen this happen before. Whatever you’re doing, just keep

doing it!’”

*Teresa’s herbal program includes AIM Herbal Fiberblend®

and AIM Composure®.

resenting results everyone can achieve.

It starts at a young age, and you never quite get over it no matter how long you

have lived. It’s the inner nagging to stay in shape and not let your body expand in

the middle. Unless you develop the exercise habit early on in your life, getting started

and keeping it going requires a fair amount of discipline. But once you’re hooked,

exercising to keep fit becomes a natural part of your life and you can’t do without it.

AIM offers natural health products to assist your healthy habit.

AIM Peak Endurance®– your alternative energy source

You need energy to exercise, and your body pro-duces it at the cellular level in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Give your body an energizing hand and replenish this energy source with Peak Endurance – absorbable ATP plus mineral electro-lytes and vitamins.

All of your cells are fueled by ATP. But the older you get, less ATP is produced by your body. The PEAK ATP® in Peak Endurance is like choosing high-octane gaso-line to keep your car engine running optimally. By stimulat-ing blood flow (without negatively impacting blood pressure or heart rate), PEAK ATP enhances the delivery of vital oxygen, nutrients, and glucose to working and recovering muscles. Along with increasing your energy levels, Peak Endurance can help you to improve your muscle growth, strength, and recovery.

PEAK ATP’s adenosine 5 triphosphate disodium is sim-ply the best supplemental source of ATP available, and this is what makes Peak Endurance the best sports drink in the marketplace. Besides, each serving has only one gram of sugar as compared to the 10 to 49 grams of sugar found in typical sports drinks.

AIM Weight Management Starter Pack – your lean-muscle maker

Exercising is essential for strong, lean muscles and body-fat reduction. And AIM contributes to both of these fitness goals with protein, fiber, and antioxidants in the Weight Management Starter Pack (5581E). This starter pack includes the following products:

AIM ProPeas® provides a vegetable source of protein from non-GMO field peas. Protein is a daily requirement that keeps body tissue healthy by building, maintaining, and replacing the tissues that compose our muscles, organs, and immune system. And green, alkaline protein is a healthy alternative to acidifying meat and dairy.

AIM fit ’n fiber® provides a natural source of 12 grams of fiber per serving to support a healthy weight and an active lifestyle. The benefits of fiber intake include a decrease in bad cholesterol, reduction of appetite, and support of cardiovascular health.

The protein in ProPeas and the fiber in fit ’n fiber con-tribute to a full-stomach feeling (satiety) because both are slowly digested. Adding them to a shake or smoothie makes a healthy drink or calorie replacement.

AIM Blue Diamond Director Rod Murray is a full-time lecturer in the Department of Physical Education at Grant MacEwan University in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. Rod has experienced weight-loss success with ProPeas and AIM FibreBalance® (Canada-only – U.S. equivalent is fit ’n fiber) as a meal replacement.

“I find that it really curbs my appe-tite and works best when I have it as my dinner,” says Rod. “In six months, I’ve lost 26 pounds, which is roughly a pound a week. ProPeas and FibreBalance mixed in juice make an abso-lutely delicious shake. I’m loving it and definitely feeling and seeing results.”

Rounding out the Weight Management Pack, AIM CellStar® Pomagrape and Mango Mango super-juices provide an antioxidant-rich source of nutrients from superfruits and herbs that help to boost your immune system and defy the aging process. Either delicious juice can be mixed with ProPeas and fit ’n fiber for a protein-, fiber-, and antioxidant-rich drink.

Keeping you fit as a fiddle is AIM’s purpose. Taking Peak Endurance and the Weight Management Starter Pack can help to fine tune your instrument.

AIM Frame Essentials®

Take something natural to relieve joint pain and help to heal problems at the source instead of tak-ing pain-killing drugs that mask your symptoms (with possible side effects). AIM Frame Essentials provides you with natural relief from the symptoms of osteoarthritis.

Just ask Preferred Member Djohan Noorjadi of Coquitlam, British Columbia, Canada. When Djohan and his wife Susan came into AIM’s Vancouver office in June to place their regu-lar order, he talked about his health improvements after tak-ing Frame Essentials.

“For three months, I had a painful, swollen thumb. There was stiffness in my hands and knee joints as well. I also had a bit of tennis elbow. I’ve been a tennis player since I was 14 years old and still play at least six hours a week. My friend, AIM Director Agnes Budiman, told me about Frame Essentials, so I gave it a try.

“I have to say that within three to four weeks, the swelling in my thumb went down and the pain disappeared. Same thing for the stiffness in my knees and the tennis elbow. Both my wife and I continue to take Frame

Essentials, and AIM BarleyLife® is also a regular part of our day.”

Sometimes taking natural health prod-ucts requires more time to heal naturally – a healthy alternative to quickly (and tem-porarily) masking the pain with drugs. And AIM’s green, whole-food concentrates, such as AIM LeafGreens®

and the BarleyLife that Djohan takes, also help to counter-act inflammation and heal the body with nutrition.

Strength in NumbersFrame Essentials provides an effective combination of medicinal ingredients:

glucosamine, Boswellia serrata, and methylsulfonylmethane (MSM). Together, these individually effective ingredients team up to focus on relieving joint pain and heal-ing at the source of the problem.

GlucosamineYour body produces glucosamine – an amino sugar that is required for the

formation and repair of cartilage as well as for the structure of other body tissues such as ligaments, synovial fluid, and heart valves. Unfortunately, the older you get, the less glucosamine you produce. Along with relieving pain and inflammation, supplementing with the glucosamine in Frame Essentials provides your body with what it needs to build and repair cartilage.

Boswellia For centuries, the resin from the boswellia ser-

rata tree has been used by Ayurvedic doctors in India as an herbal remedy for maintaining healthy joints. By improving blood supply to the joints and supporting healthy blood vessels, boswellic acids reduce joint swelling, provide pain relief, and keep you mobile. With its anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties, boswellia has been shown to help not only those with osteoarthritis and rheu-matoid arthritis but also individuals suffering from

disorders such as asthma, emphysema, and ulcerative colitis.

MSM (methyl-sulfonyl-methane)Found in every cell of the body, sulfur is a mineral that plays a vital role in tis-

sue structure. As a biologically active form of sulfur, the MSM in Frame Essentials contributes to healthy joints by reducing inflammation, swelling, and pain. MSM also helps to repair damaged joints and tissue.

With Frame Essentials, you can still be one of the guys.This testimonial should not be construed as representing results

everyone can achieve.

Why is it that guys often ignore the warning signs? Or that

men tend to push the pain threshold? Is it that “be a man”

programming that is a part of most boys’ lives? It can’t be the catch-

phrase “no pain, no gain” for which we can blame Jane Fonda and her

workout videos. So it has to be a guy thing. For all the guys who are hurting and not doing anything about it, AIM

has just the thing for you.

It’s definitely a guy thingm

It’s definitely a guy thingYou’re a man over the age of 40. Your pros-

tate has always been there for you, but you prob-ably haven’t given this walnut-sized gland much thought. The fact is that after you reach your fourth decade, your prostate will more than likely get bigger and cause a con-dition known as Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH). AIM ReAssure® SP may help to relieve the urologic symptoms associated with this annoying condition.

Bigger is NOT Better

You, your prostate, and AIM ReAssure® SP

With BPH, your enlarged prostate starts to press against your urethra (the tube from your bladder through which urine is eliminated), so several things can happen regarding nature’s call.

You may find yourself needing to urinate more often – day and night. Even so, you may not be able to com-pletely empty your bladder. Or you may notice a weak stream of urine. Some men may be unable to delay urina-tion while others can experience difficulty getting started or stopping. Some may find the whole process painful or see blood in their urine. BPH is not prostate cancer, but you want to take precautions to prevent it.

The exact cause of prostate enlargement has not been determined, but factors may include a high-fat diet, envi-ronmental pollutants, and a family history of BPH. The pri-mary factor is the overproduction of dihydrotestosterone

(DHT), which is converted from testosterone.

AIM ReAssure SPCreating a formula of four natural ingredi-

ents that work synergistically to relieve BPH symptoms resulted in ReAssure SP. Two cap-sules of ReAssure SP provide the following effective ingredients in recommended daily amounts determined by scientific research:

Saw Palmetto Berry Oil Extract (320 mg)The SP refers to ReAssure’s key ingredient – saw pal-

metto, a berry oil extract that may help relieve the uro-logic symptoms associated with mild to moderate BPH. Saw palmetto inhibits the enzyme (5-alpha-reductase) that is necessary for the conversion of testosterone into DHT. Too much DHT is considered to be one of the contributing factors of prostate enlargement and the resulting BPH.

In 1998 the Journal of the American Medical Association reported evidence that suggests saw palmetto extract

men’s health

improved urologic symptoms and flow measures in a study of 2,939 men with symptomatic BPH.

Pumpkin Seed Oil (240 mg)Pumpkin seed extracts have also been used to treat

symptoms associated with BPH. A 2009 study of 47

Korean men with symptomatic BPH suggested that

pumpkin seed oil (and saw palmetto oil) is clinically safe

and may be effective complementary and alternative

medicine for BPH.

Zinc Citrate (15 mg)High concentrations of zinc are found in the prostate

suggesting that the mineral is required for the health of

this gland. Zinc must come from your diet. Along with

being vital for the body’s enzymatic process, zinc has

been shown to inhibit the enzyme required to convert

testosterone into dihydrotestoterone (DHT).

Lycopene (5 mg)ReAssure SP provides a natural source of lycopene

from tomato extract. A study published in the Journal

of Nutrition (January 2008) reveals that lycopene inhib-

its the progression of BPH. Furthermore, the American

Association for Cancer Research published a study in

1999 that provides evidence that eating tomato prod-

ucts and other lycopene-containing foods might reduce

the occurrence or progression of prostate cancer.

So if you’re a guy over 40 who is concerned about

the health of your prostate, practice prevention by tak-

ing ReAssure SP.

I’ve been taking ReAssure SP every day since it became available. I remember a

time when I had to get up two to three times a night to go to the bathroom, but that doesn’t happen anymore. ReAssure SP really helps me.

– AIM Director James Halstead Oakwood, Georgia

AIM Cellsparc 360® Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10)

is one nutrient that your heart cannot do without. Found in every one of your cells, CoQ10 is an antioxi-dant that sparks the produc-tion of cell energy – ATP, a.k.a. adenosine triphosphate (see ‘Feel Fit as a Fiddle’ on page 15).

Your heart requires more energy than any other organ. Your body produces less CoQ10 as you age, so it needs a supplemental hand. Along with boosting your immune system, CoQ10 also increases blood circula-tion and the oxygenation of heart tissue.

Cellsparc 360 provides CoQ10 along with fish oil (omega-3) and tocotrienols (a form of vitamin E) for a combination of ingredients providing a synergistic effect that supports car-diovascular health.

AIMega® Omega-3 and -6 fatty

acids are essential for all of your cells and body systems. They work in balance to produce and regulate your hormones and provide the inflam-

matory-response mechanism that

your body uses to fight infection and diseases. If you are not providing your body with these essential fatty acids (EFAs) in a balanced 2:1 ratio on a daily basis (because your body can’t make them), then you’re gambling with your health and quality of life. Bet with a sure thing – AIMega®.

For your heart alone, omega-3 can help to improve circulation, reduce the risk of stroke, lower bad choles-terol, lower triglycerides (a blood fat linked to heart disease), regulate blood pressure, and prevent hardening of the arteries and cell membranes.

AIM CellStar® PomagrapePomegranates are known for their superior combination of

antioxidants, which help make CellStar Pomagrape a potent superjuice. The super nutrients in Pomagrape come from a blend of extracts, including blueberry, black currant, and hibiscus.

Each of Pomagrape’s ingredients contribute to the high anti-oxidant levels of the superjuice. Antioxidants, the body’s free radicals fighters, have been linked to the prevention of heart disease, and the improved blood flow from antioxidants and cardiovascular-stimulating extracts helps keep the heart pumping strong.

AIM fit ’n fiber®

It’s healthy to bulk up on fiber – “a leading dietary factor in the prevention and treatment of chronic dis-eases” (American Journal of Clinical Nutrition). Getting an adequate amount of soluble fiber can lower bad cholesterol, reduce blood pressure, and decrease the risk of heart disease. But the average man only gets 50 percent of the 38 daily recommended grams).

Two scoops of fit ’n fiber provide 12 grams of fiber – a dietary boost for a healthy heart and digestive system. Remember, all of your body systems are connected.

Good health revolves around proper nutrition. Supplementing your diet with nutrients your body requires has become a vital part of a healthy life-style. As for the Heart Health Starter Pack, what is good for a man’s heart is good for his whole-body health.

A man’s heart

In 2006, 831,272 Americans died from diseases of the heart, a majority of whom were men. How many more will die from one of the leading

threats to men’s health in 2010? When it comes to middle-aged men, encyclopedias could be written about

problems that can crop up in their blood vessels and hearts. A family history of heart issues is a definite factor, but for many it is how they have experienced their years. Stress, smoking, heavy drinking, bad diet, lack of exercise, and not getting enough sleep are individual factors that lead to heart problems. Whether you need lifestyle changes or to follow a path of prevention, four products in the AIM Heart Health Starter Pack (5582E) can help you to avoid becoming a statistic.

people what the AIM products have personally done for you.

We give a hand blender and measuring spoon to every person

ucts may help and possible diet changes. Share with them the

changes you and others have made and how your and their

health improved with these changes.”

The following is one of the submitted stories. This

is a great reminder that opportunities for Member

recruitment are around every corner.

Blue Diamond Director Charlotte Thompson, Dundee, Ohio

Charlotte uses a variety of ways to recruit

Members and spread the word about

AIM products. Once, she took a

detox foot machine to someone’s

house, simply signed them up as

AIM Members, and they are now

Star Sapphire Directors. She also

gives out her business cards to people in

hotels or at the store, and she utilizes classified

advertisements as recruiting tools as well.

Detoxification is the key toBy AIM Chairman’s Club Director

Yu-Shiaw Chen, Ph.D., Stony Brook, New YorkWe all seek health, since “health is more important

than wealth.” One of the key elements to our health is removing toxins and wastes from the body. This so-called detoxification is essential to vibrant health.

Carol Ann Roberts suffered chronic pain from fibro-myalgia and arthritis since 1981. In recent years, her con-dition got worse, and two years ago a spinal MRI showed that she also developed spinal stenosis – a narrowing of the spine, which can cause cramping, pain, or numbness in the legs, back, neck, shoulders, or arms.

While taking my “Healthy Weight for Life” course, she impressed me weekly with her new improvements. The way she was able to remove her chronic pain was fol-lowing the nutrition program and taking the AIM supple-ments. She has reaped the benefits of whole food nutrition from taking AIM Garden Trio® daily, because Garden Trio is loaded with vitamins, minerals, phytochemicals, and antioxidants. And AIM BarleyLife® has two other important substances, chlorophyll and enzymes, which

health testimony

By AIM Wholesale Member Carol Ann Roberts, Port Jefferson Station, NY, December 2009

For many years since 1981, I have been suffering with chronic arthritis and fibromyalgia. My rheumatologist

prescribed a number of medications (Aledrex, Bertra, Vioxx), but I did not want to take them. A short time after taking them I told my doctor, “No more.” I would rather deal with the pain, because I felt they were doing me more harm.

I have a long, long history of heart disease in my family. I have always believed in “natural” healing, even as a teenager. I am now 70 years old. My goal is to get off medication.

I first saw Dr. Chen’s name on a small news clipping in my cardiologists’ office. I asked my cardiologist about her, and he only had high praises for her. It was two years later when I saw a flyer in my local “organic” supermarket with her name on it. I called her immediately and went to my first meet-ing of the “Healthy Weight for Life” program the following evening.

I feel I have found what I have been looking for for so long – an alleviation of the pain. In less than one month on the nutrition program with Dr. Chen’s guidance, Herbal Fiberblend and the Garden Trio, many changes happened in

vibrant health

my body that really astounded me. Hot days, cold, rain, snow; I seem to have lessening pain and a testament to that is I’m sleeping so peacefully – eight, nine, 10 hours a night. I used to wake up five or six times a night to shift my body to a dif-ferent position. Due to the spinal stenosis, I kept looking for a comfortable place and only slept two or three hours a night.

My digestive system had become so mixed up for years. I was dealing with constipation, but Herbal Fiberblend and fit ‘n fiber have helped immensely. I feel I have rid my body of many toxins. I am full of energy.

I was on Lipitor for four years. In the fourth year, I started having muscular problems. Where I used to walk around my block three times – one mile – I couldn’t do it for a year. Now I am walking the mile again – and more – five times a week.

In a short month, there have been many, many other improvements. My cravings have subsided, I don’t feel hun-gry any more, I’ve lost eight pounds, and a cyst has dimin-ished in size. If there is nothing else in my pantry, Herbal Fiberblend and fit ‘n fiber will be there.

This testimonial should not be construed as repre-senting results everyone can achieve.

Dr . Yu-Shiaw Chen and Carol Ann RobertsCarol Ann’s story …of chronic pain from fibromyalgia, arthritis and spinal stenosis

have been found to be potent anti-inflammatory agents.Carol Ann kept telling me what a difference AIM Herbal

Fiberblend® made in her, which led her to realize that the root cause of her multiple health conditions originated from consti-pation. I could not agree with her more; when she started using Herbal Fiberblend regularly, she noticed the difference. Herbal Fiberblend helped her cleanse toxic buildup from years and years of accumulation. As a result of detoxification, her 29 years of chronic pain from fibromyalgia and arthritis subsided, and her energy resumed.

The combination of Herbal Fiberblend and AIM fit ’n fiber® makes cleansing the body a convenient and easy task for Carol Ann and for anyone who needs a thorough detoxification. Don’t wait until you are sick; just keep up the body cleans-ing routine.
