Living Well PROPEAS - VEGAN PROTEIN POWDER
AIM remains adamant about providing Members with high-quality supplements and maintaining integrity for the business model used to distribute them. It’s a system that works to deliver nutrition that works. The fact of the matter is that a majority of Members purchase products for their personal use without being active in the business opportunity. And that’s okay—AIM is committed to providing exceptional, wholesome nutrition first and foremost. But not everyone also wants to be a distributor of the AIM products. To provide options for individual preferences, things are changing at AIM.

What are proteins?
I use the analogy that proteins form the ‘texture’ of the body. Without protein, there would be no structure. Almost like a house, in which there are walls, a plumbing system, electrical wires, cooking equipment and a system in which all these features function dependently on the efficiency of the other. Protein is made from basic units, which are called amino acids. In the human body, there are 9 essential amino acids in infants and 8 essential amino acids in adults. In all, the human body requires 20 amino acids. Essential amino acids refer to those amino acids that cannot be manufactured in the body and therefore have to be supplied by the diet. Non-essential amino acids can be formed in the body provided the compounds necessary to make them are available.

Even though there is a plethora of information available on internet search engines, I think going back to basics in terms of human nutrition is not necessarily out of place. Whilst many, if not most AIM Members know what a protein is, and what foods contain proteins, many of our Members may not fully understand the importance of proteins in the diet and where to find the best quality proteins. So yes, different proteins have different properties, which are relevant in terms of the types of food one eats and where an individual is with regard to specific stages in life. Infants and children need certain nutrients to ensure adequate growth and development of all their body systems, such as the brain and nervous system. Older people need to ensure adequate nutrition to maintain normal function, prevent deficiencies such as calcium deficiency, which is very common in advanced age due to the dietary choices, availability of food and other limitations people may

Which foods contain protein?
5nutrition that works / www.theaimcompanies.comCELLFOOD
Most people equate protein-rich food with animal foods and to a large extent this is true. However, there is a global trend towards eating fewer animal foods and in particular red meat, so we do need to explore the other non-animal sources of protein. This drive towards vegetarianism is as much driven by compassion and a desire to end cruelty to animals, as it is by the stark reality that meat farming increases the methane concentration in the atmosphere and is simply not environmentally sustaining. The main criterion as far as adequate protein intake is concerned, is to ensure that infants receive the 9 essential amino acids and adults get their dose of 8 essential amino acids (EAA). Most animal proteins contain all of these EAA so that is why becoming a vegetarian or a vegan may jeopardise your protein intake in terms of essential nutrients. This is obviously particularly relevant in the vulnerable stages of life such as childhood, menopause and old age. I am not going to elaborate on animal sources of protein as we all know what those are, but investigate the availability of protein-rich plant foods as this is particularly relevant to our introduction and use of AIM ProPeas. Vegetarians can obtain their protein from dairy foods and eggs (lacto-ova vegetarians) as well as from plants. Vegans, however, rely totally on plant foods such as nuts, seeds, legumes, avocados and vegetables. Industry has done much to facilitate this demand by making soya, oat, almond and rice ‘milk’, as well as nut and seed butters in addition to eating all the above-mentioned foods in their natural form.
The benefits of AIM ProPeas Since AIM ProPeas is a protein powder, it is prudent to compare it with other protein powders that are marketed so avidly. ProPeas is a totally vegan, nonGMO, gluten-free and sugar free protein powder. In addition to not containing any milk proteins like whey and casein (which are the milk proteins associated with milk allergies as well as the sugar in milk, lactose), this product also does not contain soy, a common allergen. AIM Propeas contains the 9 essential amino acids as well as the branch-chain amino acids, which are so vital in the prevention of age-related muscle degradation. Most protein-rich plants do not contain the latter in adequate quantities. In terms of amount of protein per serving, one scoop of Propeas will provide 12 grams of protein, which if you consider the recommendations listed above, is a useful addition to a diet which may be compromised in terms of the quality and quantity of protein due to dietary choices and food

Another exciting plan for the future is a conceptual program that we are working on: a yearly contest where every single Member has the ability to win a success trip. No matter where you are in the Member Income Plan, you will have personalized benchmarks that you need to reach in the contest. And when you do, you will be rewarded with an all-expenses-paid trip on AIM’s account. You will travel somewhere with other contest winners to have fun, dine together, discuss business ideas and share in an experience of a lifetime.

CORPORATE MESSAGE 7nutrition that works / www.theaimcompanies.com
Seeing Potential Having been in this industry for over 15 years, growing teams around the world and meeting some of the greatest Networkers, I noticed that each and every person has a different background and a different journey to success. With all of these successful Networkers facing countless setbacks and hurdles along their journey, the one thing that they all had in common was their ability to rise above those setbacks and turn them into an Everyopportunity.hurdle, every struggle can be turned into an opportunity. It’s like the story about a shoe company that sends two salespeople into North Africa to evaluate the market for shoe sales. One person returns, saying “There’s no opportunity, because no one wears shoes and everyone walks around barefoot.“ The other person returns, saying “Wow, there’s a golden opportunity to sell shoes to every single person there, because no one wears shoes and everyone walks around Ibarefoot.”wouldreally like to encourage you to see the potential with AIM, as there are so many people around the world that have yet to hear about the incredible AIM products and the opportunity. The future is bright, and the future starts with YOU today!
This year’s improvements to the Member Income Plan include increased rebate percentages and added earning potential with the introduction of AIM
Customers, who can easily become business-building Members simply by paying the R200.00 membership fee.
For the benefit of new and existing Members, further changes are coming to the income plan’s back end, which means simplifying the qualifications that unlock a whole new level of income once you become an AIM Director. This will make it easier for you to learn and teach new people how to maximize the back end of AIM’s Member Income Plan.

1. To help women who are dissatisfied with their current state of health, and thereby help them to transform their health, well-being and energy so that they can thrive and not simply survive!

I began to feel a need to achieve 3 goals:
My journey with AIM started in 2012 when I was six weeks pregnant and was introduced to AIM BarleyLife. This was a life-changing moment for me, that unit of BarleyLife changed the trajectory of my life!
It All STARTED With
By Laura Kirsten - AIM Director
It was a time of growth as I started my journey with others. There were a Canister of AIM BarleyLife
I had an AIMazingly healthy pregnancy and gained a mere 9kg! The only minor issue I experienced was a dip in my iron levels. I then introduced AIM RediBeets and managed to avoid any further medical intervention. I gave birth to a very healthy baby boy. I had an abundance of breast milk and had a wonderful breastfeeding journey with my son who self-weaned at three years and nine months. He was introduced to BarleyLife as a baby and now at the age of nine he enjoys BarleyLife, Just Carrots and RediBeets every day. The Garden Trio and AIM FloraFood are a staple part of his daily regime. As the years went by, we slowly incorporated and tried out many different AIM products. The abundant energy and health I was experiencing started to spill over to those around me and I wanted them to experience similar benefits.
3. To help contribute to the greater good and benefit the community around me. In March 2020, I saw, as many of us did, people become fearful of the future and their state of health. I took this as my cue to change what I was doing. Like a Formula 1 racecar speeding out of the grid, I launched my AIM business. I made a very distinctive move from being an AIM consumer to pro-actively embracing the business opportunity provided by AIM.
Over the span of two years, a team of women grew within my community and embraced the business opportunity AIM had provided to collaborate and work towards a shared goal – helping others achieve new levels of health they never believed possible. This was the realization of my second goal. My team of women extend beyond the borders of my immediate geographical area due to platforms like Zoom and WhatsApp and this enabled us to create a strong sense of belonging.
I’m extremely grateful to those who have walked alongside me through this process…. my mentors and community, my incredible team, and of course my family whose support made all of this possible.
PERSONAL PRODUCTIVITY
The future looks bright with AIM!
In May, 2022, we went away for our first team retreat and I got to meet some of them in person for the first time. It was truly a transformative experience. Our team is a formidable group of women of whom I’m incredibly proud. We are a sisterhood and I’ve been blessed by their friendship. This team of women show up day after day, contributing not only to each other, but their own individual networks. They are not driven by contracts or financial gain, they do this because they believe in what we are doing. They have seen the difference it makes.
In July this year, we hosted a Wellness Day where we had close to 50 guests. We also used this opportunity to collect non-perishable food items for a local house of safety for abused children. We were overwhelmed by the incredible generosity of those who attended. On Mandela Day (18th July), we visited this home with all the items collected, this being our first opportunity of many to be a force for good and in doing so, realizing my 3rd goal!

The body is a powerful machine, divinely created to restore when given the correct nutrition and treatment: hydration, rest, nutrition and exercise. This was the start of the fulfilment of my first Aftergoal. just over a year of juggling a fulltime job and building my AIM business, the time had come for me to make a fundamental decision. I was 40 and didn’t want to wait another moment to step into the dream that had been growing in my heart. In September, 2021, I took a bold step and started a Brand New Chapter. I resigned from my corporate career of 15 years and made AIM my full-time focus.

For AIM independent distributors, it is an opportunity to make use of allowable tax deductions that are available for operating their Keepingbusinesses.accurate records is really the most important component of claiming expenses and deductions. If you are new to this entrepreneurship with AIM, having these records organized and understood could help you to qualify for some tax advantages. The more knowledgeable you are about taxes, the more you can do on your own. However, it’s always recommended to consult with your tax Home-Basedadvisor.
Business Tax Benefits Given that most AIM business builders operate from their homes, there are a number of expenses that can be used as tax deductions. For example, the costs associated with advertising, business travel, literature and other sales tools might qualify.

Through NUTRITION
HEALTH Children’s 16 Sept - Oct 2022 / to order call 011-675-0477 CELL FOOD
By Charlotte Meschede - Nutritionist
• Healthy fats to ensure normal cognitive (brain) functioning and development such as avocados, olive oil, fatty fish, raw nuts and raw seeds
• Protein-rich foods such as meat, chicken, fish, eggs, dairy foods, legumes, nuts and seeds
• Fresh fruit and vegetables for energy, vitamins, minerals and trace elements (the more colour, the better)
Let’s fix the problem I am fully aware of the challenges that face young parents as they juggle work, home, school schedules and the ever-increasing burden of expenses. It’s simply not easy and many parents will resort to whatever is easy and cheap in order to feed the family. In addition, a substantial number of children have very specific likes and dislikes, so trying to please the whole family is simply not possible. However, I do urge you to consider the basics of nutrition in order to make sure your children get the nutrients required for normal health and development. These include:
• Sufficient fibre in the diet – usually provided by wholegrain foods, but sometimes this is not sufficient and supplements are required to facilitate efficient bowel action
“Children’s Health Through Nutrition” because there are many aspects to children’s health aside from nutrition, and in fact many parents will oversee or rate the level of parental care through a tick-box of vaccinations, doctor’s visits and education, without giving much priority to nutrition. It saddens and concerns me enormously when I see parents giving young children junk food on a regular or even continual basis. It is wrong on every level and in some countries (UK for example), giving junk food to infants and children as their main food intake is a common occurrence. There is some research that the increased intake of fast foods in early years has been shown to weaken natural immunity and contribute to nutrient deficiencies. In fact, in the last 20 years the incidence of type 2 diabetes in children has risen by approximately 4.8% increase PER YEAR in the United States. Even Type 1 in children has increased by 1.9% per year3. It has also been shown that these nutrient-deficient, calorie-dense fast foods can lead to behavioural problems, specifically hyperactivity. In addition, a diet that is loaded with sugar-laden drinks and refined and processed snacks, will cause a great fluctuation in blood sugar levels, which will also be reflected in lethargic and unsocial behaviour as children struggle to maintain energy levels and remain motivated to learn and take part in physical activities1.
I have purposely titled this article
• Wholegrain foods for energy such as brown rice, whole grain bread and other grains
In the chaos of all that goes on even in the most organised household,
nutritional requirements may not be met. I set aside some ‘non-negotiables’ in my own home, that ensured that the basic nutrient requirements were met. I think the following ideas may have some value:
• A breakfast of at least 2 of these foods: oat porridge, whole grain bread, eggs, avocado, cottage cheese, hummus, fresh fruit and/or yoghurt
• Some exercise every day, even if they didn’t like sport
• A minimum of 3 vegetables every day–the more colour the better As I say, these were NONNEGOTIABLE in my home! If these rules were not followed, there was NO TV, play-dates or any other ‘treat’.
• A serving of AIM BarleyLife and/ or AIM RediBeets in the morning with breakfast
AIM has introduced products over the years which really do facilitate a healthier diet in our offspring. AIM Cocoa LeafGreens was a product designed to camouflage the taste of the BarleyLife and many children prefer this taste to the regular product. In addition, cocoa powder has many benefits. It is rich in many nutritious phytochemicals and can contribute to immune health, and provide essential nutrients such as iron, zinc and selenium2.Acouple of other AIM products which also have some benefit in specific needs for children should be mentioned here. Deficiencies or increased requirements for some nutrients may arise due to various circumstances such as the development of congenital or acquired conditions. In situations like these it may be pertinent to supplement with products like AIM Fit ’n Fiber to help naturally increase the fibre content of food, which in turn enables the gut and colon to function efficiently. I have seen so many young children with chronic constipation during the course of my clinical career. This occurs particularly in families whose diet is highly refined and few or no vegetables and fruit are eaten, let alone whole grains like whole wheat bread, brown rice and starchy vegetables like sweet potatoes. If a child does not eat any dairy products or other foods containing calcium, like green vegetables, beans, nuts and seeds, then CalciAIM powder can be used to supplement this mineral However, it is not recommended for children under the age of 4 years and even then, I would recommend that all attempts are made to introduce food sources of this valuable mineral before reaching for a supplement.
Once again, I reiterate that there is nothing like food to fulfil the nutritional needs of adults and children alike. However, there are few ideal situations as none of us claim to live in ‘Pleasantville’ where everything is perfect. So, we need to make adjustments as needed. Basic information on children’s nutrition is critical, but not necessarily well understood. Making a few small changes in eating plans can make a big difference. Never give up trying and if you explain to your children the value of foods, then you empower them to make healthy choices. Don’t dictate, rather educate! https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2664919/ https://www.webmd.com/diet/health-benefits-cocoa-powder https://www.cdc.gov/diabetes/research/reports/children-diabetes

The Enzyme-Coenzyme Connection Enzymes are proteins that help activate or speed up essential chemical reactions in your body. Coenzymes such as coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) are molecules that enhance the functions of enzymes. However, coenzymes are not permanently altered after assisting enzymes in chemical reactions, so they can be recycled by your body.
Although your body manufactures CoQ10, levels of this antioxidant decrease exponentially with age. CellSparc 360 replenishes the CoQ10 lost through the aging process. CoQ10 is a fat-soluble, antioxidant compound that must be present in the inner mitochondrial membrane of your cells for the conversion of carbohydrates and fats into energy: adenosine triphosphate (ATP). nutrition that works /
Your heart consumes a lot of energy, being a muscular organ that continuously pumps blood throughout your body. CellSparc 360 supports the energy needs of your beating heart by delivering CoQ10, an essential compound required for energy production.
