In the AIM Director’s Chair This month’s issue of Living Well magazine features testimonials from AIM Directors Char Pelfrey and Mari Nel. The path each Member takes to becoming an AIM Director is just as unique as the individuals making the journey. With a Director title, you have the opportunity to earn the highest commission rates on your Personal Volume and Group Volumes of your personally sponsored Wholesale Members, Preferred Members and Group Builders. And there’s more. Directors can earn AIM Leadership Bonuses as well. Newcomers often ask, “What do you have to do to reach the Director level in the AIM Member Income Plan?” Again, each

business leader achieved the title through a variety of methods and in different periods of time, but the math remains the same for all: accrue 6,000 Group Volume (GV) within 3 consecutive months. Here’s a specific example on how to fast-track your way to AIM Director: 1. You order 150 BVP each month. 2. You sponsor 4 people. 3. Each of those 4 people sponsors 4 people. 4. These 20 Members in your downline order 100 BVP for 3 consecutive months. By the end of the 3rd month, you will have accrued over 6,000 Group Volume. Bingo! You promote to AIM Director.

Testimonial

In for the Long Haul with AIM Shared by Char Pelfrey AIM Director in Mason, Ohio The year 2016 was quite diffi­ cult for me as I battled a serious health issue, but I’ve reclaimed and am now maintaining my health. I attribute this to a primarily plant-based diet and reg­ularly taking my AIM products. Peak Endurance is one of the supplements that AIM categorizes as targeted nutrition. When I need an extra boost of energy for my day, I take Peak Endurance so I can keep going.

Jerry is a more advanced hiker than me, and I wanted to maximize our time in such amazing mountain terrain. Peak Endurance really delivered, working right away to boost my energy and stamina.

This past July, my husband, Jerry, and I charted 100 miles in two weeks while hiking in Washington State’s Olympic National Park and the North Cascades, something I would never have imagined possible just a few years ago. Peak Endurance and my other AIM products were at the top of my packing list.

Of course, we were hiking during the coronavirus situation, so we had masks ready and kept our distance anytime we came across other hikers. I haven’t lived in fear throughout this pandemic; my health is optimal and I’m richly blessed. That’s why I share my AIM story with family, friends and others. I want them to have the opportunity to improve their health and, if they are interested, benefit financially by promoting AIM nutrition. There are so many things people buy but don’t really need. But everyone needs good health.

Health Feature

Looking Into

With the essential connection made between human health and good bacteria, it is no wonder that there have been so many studies on the use of probiotics that supplement the body’s own population. Currently, over 1,300 human clinical trials are listed on the ClinicalTrials.gov website and nearly 300 more on the International Clinical Trials Registry Platform (ICTRP) of the World Health Organization.1 That’s more than 1,600 studies conducted on human beings, which helps to dispel any thought that there’s not enough evidence to support the use of probiotics. Additionally, a worldwide team of scientists created a massive database that catalogs over 200,000 genomes (an organism’s complete set of DNA) and over 170 million protein sequences from more than 4,600 bacterial species found in the human gut.2 This accumulation of research will help to further understand the physical properties and functions of these organisms in relation to keeping people healthy.

FloraFood Probiotics It’s interesting to note that several clinical trials have been conducted on the same combination of probiotics contained in FloraFood: Lactobacillus gasseri, Bifidobacterium bifidum and Bifidobacterium longum. Some of study results include: Older adults showed a less inflammatory cytokine profile after taking this probiotic mixture. 2015 The Journal of the American College of Nutrition DOI: 10.1080/07315724.2014.983249

Healthy individuals with seasonal allergies experienced improved quality of life by taking these three strains of good bacteria.

2017 The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition doi.org/10.3945/ajcn.116.140012

There’s no telling how much more will be revealed in the future regarding the importance of probiotic use for maintaining good health. References: 1 bit.ly/ProbioticStudies 2 bit.ly/BacteriaProbe 4


What It Takes

Steward of the Environment

The opportunity for Members to shine online by answering the question, “Do you have what it takes?” was favorably responded to by Lora Wishart, AIM Group Builder in Tiny Township, Ontario. She is outstandingly active in her community, participating in in­spi­rational activities that need to be shared.

It all begins at home. Lora and her husband, Gord, have a 20acre farm, where their four children learn about sourcing their own food every step of the way: from preparing the soil to harvesting and canning the produce. “Along with living an active lifestyle, we aim for health by growing our own food, increasing our plant-based intake and being proactive instead of reactive in our choice of AIM products,” Lora explained. “I have a passion for providing optimal nutrition for my family.” It’s an enthusiasm that extends to her entire community.

“We grow a lot more produce than we need as a family, so once a week, we take a large amount to a local women’s shelter and a food bank,” Lora stated. Lora has been an elemen­tary school tea­cher for 18 years, integrating her back­ground in envi­ ronmental studies into her lessons. “I talk to my students about being stew­ards of the environment and choosing healthy food,” Lora said, emphasizing that “If food is processed, it’s been altered by man.” To make reasonably priced produce available to her school community, Lora set up the Good Food Box at Sacred Heart School, where once a month local farmers drop off their harvests. Parents can order a massive amount of fresh produce for only $15. Her contributions to the well-being of the people in her community make Lora a fine addition to those who shine online for AIM.

Business Feature

Ingredient Identity, Sourcing and Manufacturing Amid COVID-19 We have the shared experience of how the world has changed drastically with the rise of the coronavirus. The farreaching consequences have ranged from being mildly inconvenient to deadly. One of the multitude of side effects has been in regard to supply and demand. The depletion of inventories caused shortages of a variety of essential items. The supplement industry is deemed an essential service, and the demand for nutritive products has increased since the onset of the pandemic. However, interruptions in the supply chain have affected production and delivery.

The AIM Perspective

The situation has created delays in the manufacturing of components used for packaging, such as lids and bottles, and the sourcing of ingredients used in some of the AIM products. Of particular note is the increase of counterfeit ingredients during sourcing. 6

Predictably, this occurs during times of shortages. However, AIM has manufacturing procedures in place that include identity testing of all product ingredients. This safeguard ensures that what you see on an AIM label is precisely what you get. Consequently, whenever identity testing reveals that an ingredient is fake or not 100 percent pure, it creates delays in the production and the delivery of products. However, AIM planned well in advance of the onset of COVID-19 to keep the product line well-stocked. At the same time, some changes are unavoidable. For example, over the next 12 to 15 months, Members may receive products with ribbed lids instead of smooth ones. Even with all of the challenges that the supplement industry has faced this year, rest assured that AIM is doing everything possible to maintain its inventory of high-quality products.


Testimonial

You Can Do It Too! Shared by Mari Nel AIM Director in Paarl, Western Cape, South Africa I’m a stay-at-home mom of three, and my journey with AIM started almost 15 years ago. Attending AIM health talks, I learned about the products and supporting my immune system with wholesome food. My family and I have been benefiting from AIM nutrition ever since. In 2017, I took a nutrition and con­ sulting course, having a passion for the subject of health. With encouragement from my sponsor, in January 2020 I began giving presentations of my own in spite of my lack of confidence. Initially, I was nervous, but I gave my first talk on the digestive system. Six out of the twelve women who attended became AIM Members. Simplifying future presentations on a variety of topics allowed more time for questions and answers. Each

talk became easier, and I found myself looking forward to the next one. I let people guide me in what they want to hear. I try to answer them simply but straight. I never say anything negative about other prod­ ucts or medication, but I sharpened my knowl­ edge of the AIM prod­ ucts so that I can recommend them with confidence. I love to give attendees a product sample and share my testimonial. People are often scared to make big changes and your testimonial may be just the thing that encourages them. Respect everyone’s journey and trust in the seed you have planted. Through the years of increasing my product knowledge and sharing my experiences and passion, I ended up becoming an AIM Director. I did it, and so can you!

Product Feature

GarlicAIM: Nothing Compares! When creating a new garlic supplement, the aim was to bring a product like no other to the marketplace: GarlicAIM. It had to include the unique alpine wild garlic leaf that made Bear Paw Garlic so popular. But instead of just adding garlic bulb extract to the mix, combining black fermented garlic as well made this new supplement a garlic trio of beneficial ingredients. Of course, product comparisons are inevitable:

Active Ingredients

Alpine Wild Garlic Leaf

492 mg



Fermented Black Garlic Bulb

Total Active Ingredients

Suggested Serving: 3 Capsules

GarlicAIM Bear Paw Garlic

1,092 mg 90 capsules per bottle

1,000 mg 30-day supply

Essentially, GarlicAIM gives you the same daily serving size and the same number of capsules for a month-long supply but with more active ingredients.

Alpine Wild Garlic

The GarlicAIM formula contains the same alpine wild garlic leaf powder used in Bear Paw Garlic, but the amount had to be reduced to accommodate the two additional ingredient amounts.

Garlic Bulb Extract

Standardized to allicin, garlic extract reduces oxidative stress indicators and significantly increases levels of glutathione peroxidase and superoxide dismutase (SOD). Allicin delivers anti-inflammatory properties as well.

Fermented Black Garlic

With the addition of black garlic, you get an increased amount of S-allyl cysteine (SAC), a watersoluble, organosulfur compound that provides antioxidant properties. It is SAC that gives black garlic its sweet, savory flavor. The end result of producing a garlic supplement that contains unique garlic leaf and bulb ingredients along with an extract translates into enhanced benefits: the aim of GarlicAIM. 8

Magnesium and Stress

Magnesium is a mineral that is required for a multitude of chemical reactions that keep the body func­ tioning.1 Unfortunately, most people do not get enough magnesium in their diets due to the farming methods that deplete magnesium in soil and the widespread consumption of processed food.2 Mag­ nesium deficiency is associated with a number of issues that affect health, including stress levels.

Magnesium chloride hap­pens to be the most common form of magnesium in seawater. People feel so good after spending time in ocean waters.

Five avenues make up the HCC: food, exercise, environment, protection and attitude. Each affects the health of your cells, and positive lifestyle choices affect each avenue in healthy ways. This year has greatly accentuated the importance of protection avenue. Maintaining healthy cells to keep your immune system functioning optimally. Daily exposure to pathogens is simply a normal fact of life. A strong immune system is the best defense, preventing invaders from causing any damage. The main focus of the HCC’s protection avenue is to maintain this defense and prevent your immune system from becoming weakened.

On Protection Avenue

Weakening and Strengthening Factors Your nutritional intake, physical activity, location, sleep patterns and stress levels are just five of the many factors that affect the strength of your immune system. The protection that it affords relies on the balance of each. For example, think of how you feel when you haven’t had enough sleep. Several restless nights in a row can have a major impact on the effectiveness of your immune system. In other words, sleep deprivation knocks the wind out of your wellbeing. The same can be said about poor nutrition, sedentariness, unhealthy environments and constant worrying, so aiming for protection is crucial. With support from AIM nutrition, following the Healthy Cell Concept’s protection avenue can help to keep you on the path of well-being.


Celebration/Contest

Fellowship with Your AIM Family

It’s not easy to make definitive plans during times of uncertainty. At the same time, some things have to be organized well in advance with an optimistic outlook. Such is the case with next year’s AIM Family gathering: the 2021 AIM GROW Celebration, from June 3-6. As Members are well aware, the Clear 2020 Vision Celebration had to be canceled. No one could have predicted the domino effects unleashed by the COVID-19 pandemic, no matter how clear one’s vision. Fortunately, AIM was able to secure accommodations and meeting rooms at the same Branson location for 2021: Chateau on the Lake Resort. And there are still three months left in the GROW Cash Contest that offers prize monies for Members to further fund their trips to Missouri for next year’s gathering. In the meantime, there are many ways to enjoy fellowship with your AIM Family.

Let’s Get Social! Stay connected through social media. It’s a worldwide relationship. By frequenting Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc., you can be in touch with other Members on a regular basis. It’s so easy to send and receive messages, no matter where you or your AIM Family are at the time. This is one of the main benefits of using social media platforms.

The Chrysalis Connection And speaking of platforms, the Chrysalis Networx online training platform is an ideal way to connect with like-minded AIM business builders. Along with product and business training, you can join the social media forum and become part of the interactive WhatsApp group. It all happens at chrysalisnetworx.com. 11

Rebranding

There’s a whole lot of time and effort that goes into rebranding a company and its entire line of products. And every minute and endeavor is worth it to achieve a fresh new look.

AIM Datasheets

On the AIM website, the Member Tools section re­ veals many of the changes to the wealth of information available. For ex­ ample, datasheets have been amended to reflect the new look and revised backgrounds on each product in the AIM lineup.

That has been the case ever since June 2019, when The AIM Companies™ officially launched a new brand identity at the AIM BIG Celebration in Orlando. Since then, Members have seen the arrival of familiar products sporting rebranded labels after each individual arrival in AIM warehouses around the world. But rebranding isn’t just about product labels.
