It's funny, because I think we've done six or seven articles in the last year on licorice root, and new evidence, even in the Western world, shows that it's a blood sugar-stabilizing herb.
St. Clair: Yes, definitely.
Mike: I think cinnamon was in some of that research, as well.
St. Clair: Yes. We're actually researching cinnamon right now, because although the Blood Sugar Balance is a very effective formula as is, we're always looking at ways to improve our formulations, and we're in the process of possibly updating the Blood Sugar Balance at this time. |

If these drugs had been a Chinese herb, of course, the FDA would right now be issuing a nationwide ban and confiscating millions of dollars in inventory at health food stores all around the country. But since it's a highly-profitable class of prescription drugs, the agency is resorting to warnings that are routinely ignored by doctors and patients alike.
The matter is made worse by the "duh factor" fact that people diagnosed with ADHD or short attention spans probably don't have the concentration to read the black box warning in the first place. |

Recent reviews of the use of this herb have similarly concluded its significant effectiveness. Other herbal treatments, such as the Chinese Jianpi
Wenshen recipe and the Japanese herbal medicine Sho-saiko-to, have reportedly been effective in the treatment of infectious hepatitis.
The most commonly used herb for liver disease, including mushroom poisoning, alcoholic liver disease, and viral hepatitis, is milk thistle. It appears to protect the liver cells against a variety of toxins, as well as help detoxify the liver and promote regeneration of liver cells. |

Instead, they should use this herb. But that still misses the point, doesn't it?
Dr. Duncan: You are very wise, my friend. Your statements and your knowledge and your understanding are very deep. I say to people when I speak and when I do appearances on CNN and ABC and CBS and NBC news, "Depression is not a deficiency of Prozac". Depression is also not a deficiency of St John's Wort.
Mike:Exactly.
Dr. Duncan: A headache is not a deficiency of Tylenol. It's also not a deficiency of feverfew. Go to the core.
Mike: Right.
Dr. Duncan: Go to the root. Go deep and you'll get the answer. |

Wolfe: It's such a great herb. One that everybody should know about, and it really comes out of a long tradition, thousands of years in Chinese medicine. It is known to kill SARS. Reishi mushroom is one of the great immune system supporting substances ever. Generally, if you're out in the forest and you find a wild reishi mushroom, you want to do a tea of it. You bring it home and dry it and make a tea out of it, and that's how you do it. That's really, really rare. What I recommend is going to a health food store and finding reishi mushroom extracts. |

It's a traditional kind of Native American herb, very well renowned for its immune system supporting properties. There are great echinacea products out there. You can have echinacea, just dried echinacea flowers in glass tucked away, and you can make tea out of that. If you need it in that moment, you can have echinacea extracts that are encapsulated. Those are in almost every health food store for almost nothing. I was in a health food store the other day, and they had organic echinacea encapsulated for $5.00 a bottle.
Mike: Wow, that's a deal.
Wolfe: I bought every one they had. |

Only a special kind of quality-minded consumer will really understand why the Amazon herb products are so unique and valuable. (And why they cost more than other competing products. They're worth it, trust me.)
Real medicine
This is real medicine, by the way. I haven't even talked about the medicine found in these products, and this isn't the place to detail all that, but the short version is that in my opinion, these products contain the real, natural medicine that nature intended us to consume. |

This company is the opposite of Enron, and if more Fortune 500 firms operated with half the heart of the Amazon herb Co., our country wouldn't be in such a mess today.
If you want to heal yourself, help heal the planet, help share the good news with others and make an honest living at the same time, I strongly encourage you to check out this company and contact one of the distributors listed above (or the person who already introduced you to the company, if that's the case).
And if you're looking to simply be a customer like me, enjoy the products! |

My research on this herb, based in part of the works of Dr. James Duke, leads me to the conclusion that camu camu crosses the blood-brain barrier and offers extraordinary protection to the nervous system. There is no question in my mind that this product can drastically reduce eye disorders, including macular degeneration, as well as protect the brain and nervous system from degenerative diseases like Alzheimer's and dementia.
But don't take my word for it. Get some Pure Camu yourself and you'll immediately feel the difference. |

Until now, I didn't have the answers, because I didn't want to favor any particular distributor, so I just sent people to the Amazon herb website without any kind of support from an existing distributor.
This turned out to be less than ideal, as many people were joining the company and getting involved, but without the very important support of the experienced veterans of the organization -- people who know the ropes, know the products, and can help new distributors achieve early success. |

To the best extent of our knowledge of the hundreds of millions of people who have used that herb, nobody has ever died from taking it at any dose.
Keep it safe. Keep it healthy and keep it inexpensive. These are going to be like, $1 a day to get a sexual effect, not $9 or $10 a tablet for something that might blow the arteries in your head. Let's get real. Is that too strong?
Mike:No, no that's right in line. That's the message that people want to hear. They want real solutions that don't compromise their safety.
Kilham:I think death is too stiff a penalty for a good erection. I'm sorry. |

The other thing that's happening globally on the infrastructure side, is to have a simple model of a way someone can introduce Amazon herb products, and allow them to tell the story of the company and the benefits of the products that allows someone to make a buying decision. We've done that with our Amazon party for success program. So, people who invite people over to their homes, now they've got it A to Z, completely spelled out. It's a totally scripted presentation that they can follow that has a clear beginning, middle and an end. |

This is because herb teas have a high TDS and the hydrogen ions and electrons are bound up. This doesn't mean that herb teas are bad; it simply means that they are not hydrating. They are for nutritional and herbal effects, not for hydrating. This is an important clarifying point. For example, live juices are very good because they have many minerals and they are hydrating. But they are not necessarily as hydrating as mature distilled water. |

However, if you are in search of a way to treat your depression, it is always much better to eliminate the depression at its source, rather than try to mask its symptoms with a drug or an herb. Many people tend to use St. John's Wort and other herbs in an allopathic fashion, which means they attempt to counter a disease or symptom with a chemical, regardless of whether that chemical comes from a plant or a prescription drug. Using medicinal herbs or prescription drugs in such a way is really not a healthy way to treat symptoms, disorders or diseases. |

Based on hemp protein, it also contains mesquite pods, maca root, chocolate powder, iporuru (a rainforest herb), goji berry and purple corn extract. Unfortunately, it also contains a bit of kola nut powder, which I'm not too fond of due to the natural caffeine in the kola nut, but it's probably not so much that most people would even notice it.
The hemp protein base makes it a fantastic choice for those wanting to ingest a quality protein source from sustainable food sources, and the supporting herbs helps stabilize blood sugar, boost performance and provide workout energy and endurance. |

It's made of aloe vera, an herb with strong anti-cancer properties that also treats gum disease, high blood sugar, high blood pressure, Crohn's disease, IBS, celiac disease, digestive disorders and even blood disorders (like "sludge blood" or "sticky blood"). Aloe vera is one of the best-known healing herbs in the world, and it's useful for treating a surprising number of afflictions and health conditions (both internal and external).
This new product is made of low-temperature dried flakes of the aloe very leaf gel with a high concentration of medium-weight polysaccharides. |

For example, the FDA outlawed the selling of ephedra, a common herb in Chinese Medicine, yet the same active chemical is openly allowed to be purchased in over-the-counter cold medicines sold at virtually every corner pharmacy in America. Apparently, the FDA believes the herb is dangerous, but somehow the refined, highly-concentrated drug is far safer -- which is like saying crack is safer than coca leaf tea. The real reason for this double standard is that over-the-counter medicines are profitable for Big Pharma, and that's exactly why this drug remains on the market. |
