Inside Cranberry Extract

AIM Ingredients

The primary ingredient in the CranVerry+ formulation is a whole cranberry extract. In other words, every bit of the berry’s fruit, juice, seeds and skin goes into the extract to create concentrated, cranberry nutrition. This means that you can get the health benefits of this scarlet gem every day of the year from an easyCranVerry+ to-swallow serving of 2 capsules.

6650E, $25.00 M, $26.50 C There’s a lot of protective power in those 2 capsules (CAN 6655E, $27.75 M, $29.50 C) because cranberries provide a substantial source of flavonoids called anthocyanins and proanthocyanidins (PACs). These phytonutrients play a vital role in bioactivities that protect your body from harm, including antioxidation that inhibits free radical damage to cells, DNA, organs and tissues.

As another protective example, the anti-adhesive activity of cranberry PACs makes it too slippery for pathogenic bacteria to adhere to the walls of the urinary tract, allowing them to be urinated away instead of sticking around to cause problems. Although this is the health benefit that cranberries are most noted for, research continues to show that they are beneficial for the entire body, making cranberry extract a worthwhile dietary ingredient for brain, heart and gut health.

By dietary intake comparison, you would have to consume over a cup of cranberries or drink nearly 10 servings of cranberry juice to get the ingredient potency of 2 capsules of CranVerry+, which makes it convenient and cost-effective to get cranberry health benefits daily.

Additionally, the + in CranVerry is the plus of mangosteen, resveratrol and beta-glucanase. All three provide even more protection by increasing the presence of phytonutrients and introducing an enzyme that destroys the biofilm that shields harmful bacteria, fungi and yeast. Backing up the benefits of cranberry extract with three other plant-based ingredients is another plus from AIM. 3 12-LivingWellMag_December-2023_converted.indd 3

Year-End Health Check and New Year Resolutions As 2023 winds down in the days of the last month of the calendar year, December is a good time to take an honest look at where you are in terms of your personal health responsibilities. A simple check at home can help you determine what New Year’s resolutions you could make about your well-being. Here are some questions that you might ask yourself:

Have I been eating healthily this year?

As you read any other Livin you are likely t references t powder that l AIM Compa 41 years ago a to have a life to this very da

The health BarleyLife are testimonials f and Custome been changed result of being incredibly nu that can be young, green l

Am I at my desired body weight?

Have I been exercising regularly?

Am I in the physical shape I want to be?

Have I been taking my AIM products regularly?

How have I been coping with stress?

You’ll likely come up with even more health-related questions relevant to your own individual circumstances. That’s good. Responding honestly without guilt or selfrecrimination even if you are not pleased with your answers allows you to open the door to health improvements.

If you are happy with the results of your year-end health check at home, then congratulate yourself and keep up the good work! But if not, look at the results of this self-assessment questionnaire as an opportunity to start the New Year off with a healthier outlook on life.

Whatever changes you want to focus on, make them long-term over the next 365 calendar days so that you make long-term changes for good. For instance, if you want to lose weight, do it healthily by attempting to lose 1 to 2 pounds a week. The point is not to expect quick results because that can lead to disappointment and the likelihood of giving up.

Being kind and patient with yourself about making challenging changes will serve you well in accomplishing all of your New Year’s resolutions.

Every time you eat, the process of digesting food is both mechanical and enzymatic. Mechanically, food is chewed, churned in the stomach and moved through the intestinal tract. Enzymatically, food is broken down into small enough particles that allow nutrition to be absorbed into the bloodstream. PrepZymes contributes to this vital PrepZymes 2123E, $27.00 M, $28.50 C breakdown of food by increasing the presence of digestive (CAN 2171E, $27.75 M, $29.50 C) enzymes in your body.

Protein, carbohydrates and fats are macronutrients that require more digestion, given their dietary requirements of large quantities. The PrepZymes formulation of 11 active ingredients delivers a variety of enzymes that break down these macronutrients, assisting in the digestion and absorption of their essential nutrition.

The breaking down of fats and carbohydrates begins in your mouth with the enzymes in saliva. Enzymes in your stomach go to work on protein. The exocrine glands in your pancreas secrete enzymes that further digest all three macronutrients, which are used for energy as well as maintaining the structure and systems of your body. PrepZymes’ nine cultured enzymes along with papaya fruit and wild alpine garlic help your body to digest protein, carbohydrates and fats along with all other food components, including dairy, fiber, grains and sugars.

PrepZymes is made for supporting enzymatic digestion of all types of food, and that means wholesome or otherwise. Even ultraprocessed, nutrient-poor food, which does not pass through the intestinal tract very well, gets broken down in the end with the help of its effective enzymes. Give your digestive system a daily boost from the enzymatic power of PrepZymes.

Reference: bit.ly/DigestionBasics

PrepZymes is particularly handy to have on hand for feasts around Hanukah, Christmas, Kwanzaa and New Year’s Eve. 7 12-LivingWellMag_December-2023_converted.indd 7

New Peaks From Peak Endurance Peak Endurance has been on the AIM menu since 2007, offering a potent powder that increases the level of energy-carrying molecules known as ATP, the abbreviated form of adenosine triphosphate. It was a case of aiming for an accurate dietary source and hitting the target with Peak ATP®.

Combined with six electrolytes, six B vitamins and vitamin C, the Peak ATP in Peak Endurance’s blueberry-açai-flavored powder creates natural energy drinks using the exact molecule required for the human body to create energy.

Totally unique among energy drinks in the marketplace, Peak Endurance is another fine example of nutrition that works. Taking this dietary supplement can help to increase lean body mass, muscle thickness, peak power and total strength, just to name a few of its key benefits.

Sixteen years following the launch of Peak Endurance, new research on its ATP source continues to come to light, notably in regard to promoting a boost in mental acuity. A study published in Frontiers (August 2023) examined how supplementing with Peak ATP before a workout can improve reaction time and cognitive function following high-intensity sprint exercise.¹ The fatigue associated with high-intensity workouts can bring on cognitive dysfunction, i.e., lapses in concentration, decision-making and skill performance. However, the study’s participants who had supplemented with 400 mg of Peak ATP got higher scores in Peak Endurance cognitive tests post-workout 6366E, $40.00 M, $42.50 C than those in the placebo (CAN 6372E, $44.75 M, $47.50 C) group.

This type of research supports the physical and mental benefits of taking Peak Endurance 30 minutes to 1 hour before exercise. Mixed in water, 2 scoops of Peak Endurance delivers 400 mg of Peak ATP, the clinically validated amount for all of its benefits. ¹ doi.org/10.3389/fnut.2023.1237678 8 12-LivingWellMag_December-2023_converted.indd 8

My Journey With AIM Has a Purpose

Shared by Zoe E. Tshuku du, AIM Director in Johannesburg, South Africa I am a proud founder of a fertility clinic based in Johannesburg.

My AIM journey started in June 1998. At that stage of my life, my biggest challenge was having to end each day at noon due to excessive fatigue.

Within a week of taking BarleyLife, I had so much more energy that I could continue working until 4 pm. This change brought so much joy to me, my family and friends, and I began telling everyone how great I was feeling.

I continued improving my health with dietary supplements such as Herbal Fiberblend, another favorite product. It helped me to detoxify from a history of poor food choices, which had caused gluten intolerance, digestive problems and weight issues.

It took a whole year to complete my detox program, but I was not in a hurry and decided I was going to enjoy the journey, if I wanted to live better, healthier and stronger. By the end of the year, I had lost over 60 pounds (28 kg). Twenty-two years later, I still weigh nearly 130 pounds less than when I started in 1998.

My testimonial about this transformation is a major marketing tool. Realizing that my journey to good health with the AIM products had a purpose was my eureka moment. I could help people who crossed my path to improve their health.

The work I do at the clinic gives me the opportunity to recommend AIM products.

And I regularly post on WhatsApp and social media about my positive experiences with this amazing nutrition.

I also listen to others and their journey to health. I encourage people to be selective about the food they eat and, if possible, grow their own organic vegetables, along with advocating AIM products.

By using the foundational principle of USSBT (Use the products • Share the products • Sponsor others • Build strong relationships • Teach others to do the same), I encourage others to sign up with AIM, making the products cost-effective so that they can start using and enjoying natural nutrition.

My AIM adventure has touched many lives of all ages. I’m ecstatic about the AIM products and how they improve people’s well-being. If you are as excited as I am about the awesome benefits, it is difficult to keep quiet.

The combination of 7 botanical ingredients in GinkgoSense provides considerable amounts of diverse phytonutrients that work at enhancing your memory and vision while helping your mind and body to manage the stress of everyday life. It makes a lot of sense to take GinkgoSense daily.

These antioxidants boost circulation, notably to the brain, thereby increasing the delivery of nutrients and oxygen. bit.ly/GinkgolideSource

AIM Deep When AIM launched BioVivify last year, a new ingredient called astaxanthin was introduced into the lineup of nutrition that works. This incredibly powerful antioxidant sourced from natural microalgae can improve the health of hair, nails and skin in a synergistic formulation that also includes biotin, glycine, L-lysine, L-proline and vitamin C. AIM uses a source of astaxanthin that Members and Customers can count on to deliver optimal benefits. This is vital because we all know that things are not always what they seem, especially when it comes to newer ingredients that gain worldwide attention. Case in point is the large number of products that flooded the marketplace after astaxanthin became widely known.

For those who are not familiar with the credibility of the AIM products and astaxanthin-rich BioVivify, it’s a case of buyer beware. Potency tests conducted on 22 lesser-known brands of astaxanthin supplements sold online at Amazon and Walmart show why. Some of the product labels claimed to contain as much as 24 mg of astaxanthin, but 13 of the 14 products that failed potency tests had less than 1 mg.¹

Product Feature

As for the quality and quantity of astaxanthin in BioVivify, the AIM source is from the world’s leading producer of natural astaxanthin: AstaReal®. What's more, each production of astaxanthin as a raw ingredient is tested by a thirdparty laboratory to confirm potency.

Once that raw ingredient is used to create the BioVivify formulation, further potency testing is conducted by a thirdparty laboratory to confirm that each two-capsule serving contains 6 mg of astaxanthin. It’s the AIM way of making nutrition that works.

When you buy an AIM product such as BioVivify, you get what is printed on the label. And the ingredient amounts are not just random numbers. As for astaxanthin, the 6 mg per serving is based on extensive research that maps out the efficacy of this ingredient in providing optimal results for your hair, nails and skin. That’s the potency of BioVivify.

I Feel Like a New Person

A fun puzzle fo

Shared by Jolandi Dreyer, AIM Director in Randfontein, South Africa

It was around 2017 when I became acutely aware of the effects of stress and poor diet on my body.

I was overweight, had digestive issues and was extremely fatigued. A few acquaintances had improved their general health by taking a green powder from AIM, so I decided to try it.

Shortly after I started using my first order of BarleyLife along with Herbal Fiberblend, Herbal Release, FloraFood and Para 90, I noticed a remarkable improvement in my energy levels. I felt like a new person.

Four months later, something unexpected happened. I started losing weight quickly, but my homeopath who examined me said there was nothing wrong. The weight loss was connected to removing years of built-up toxins. My health had made a U-turn.

People noticed the improvements in my appearance and energy and wanted to know what I had been doing.

I told them about improving my diet and using AIM products. After I attended informative health talks presented by my upline, I started inviting friends along so that they could learn more as well.

Many friends wanted to try AIM nutrition, so I started selling products and enrolling other people.

The first time I earned commission on my sales was a welcome surprise, using it to pay for my AIM order. Another wonderful surprise was being promoted to AIM Director.

What motivates me most is the positive feedback I get from friends when they start using AIM supplements. I keep hearing the same words I used when I started taking the products: “I feel like a new person.” Nothing gives me more pleasure than knowing I am making a difference in someone else's life.

I am extremely grateful for the massive impact that AIM supplements have had on my health. It allows me to be the wife, mother and friend I want to be. I am living my best life. My wish is for all to have access to AIM products.

When people ask me what they can do to improve their health, I answer, “Just start using BarleyLife.”

Pinky Peak Custard

Shared by Rica Gerhardt, AIM Director, and Karina Gerhardt-Strachan, AIM Preferred Member

Ingredients 1 cup millet, uncooked 1 can coconut milk (400 ml) ½ cup maple syrup 3 tbsp coconut oil 1-2 tsp vanilla, to taste 3 scoops Peak Endurance Directions 1. Rinse and drain the millet. Add to a saucepan with 3 ½ cups water. Cook partially covered over medium heat for 15-20 minutes or until most of the water is absorbed. Stir periodically to prevent burning and overboiling. Turn off heat, cover the pan and leave millet to absorb the rest of the water. Let cool.

2. Blend all ingredients in a blender until silky smooth. Best to do in two batches even if you have a high-powered blender.

3. For fun presentation, fill individual glasses, leaving room for the cranberry sauce. Cool in fridge so the custard can set more firmly. Then pour some cranberry sauce on top. Enjoy!
