Over the last few weeks, I've been distributing my free Bioslife Slim 2009 pocket calendar. Most people welcome it, as it is a handy guide to start planning your trips and holidays.
Last night at a Christmas Party, after I had given my new 2009 calenders to David, Sasha and Andrew, they started talking about a friend who took Bioslife Slim recently and lost so much inches and weight.
It was good to see the look on some of the people at the party, as this testimony on Bioslife Slim was from a very credible source and not from me.
I am sure, over the next few days, some people will be calling me up to order Bioslife Slim to try for themselves. If not, my calender will always be in someone's wallet, car or desk, and awaiting a trigger, for them to decide to lose a few inches before Chinese New Year.
Eat drink and be merry for tomorrow we have BIOSLIFE SLIM. Have a magical 2009 ahead, filled with energy and vibrant health.

Children at 7 get Type 2 Diabetes
Malaysian children as young as 7 are developing type 2 diabetes early. While Type 2 diabetes was only common for adults above 45, the western lifestyle and diet, are seriously affecting our children today.
Children who are at risk are overweight, usually the youngest in the family, have a family history, have high blood pressure and high cholesterol.
Some symptoms of type 2 diabetes include
a) general tiredness and lethargy for no reason.
b) excessive thirst
c) frequent urination, especially at night
d) unexplained weight loss
e) blurred vision
f) skin infections and itching in the genitals
g) numbness or burning sensations in fingers and toes
h) slow healing of cuts and wounds.
The International Diabetes Federation estimated in 2006 that Type 2 diabetes in children was expected to grow by 50% within 15 years. In 2007, 500,000 new diabetes cases were recorded in Malaysia alone.
While it's difficult to change the diet and habits of children (or even adults), it's easy to add a delicious orange flavoured fibre drink like Bioslife (from age 4) or Bioslife Slim ( for the overweight kids age 6 and above) 10 mins before their main meal.
Bioslife is the only safe, patented and clinically proven fibre drink to manage healthy cholesterol, blood pressure and blood sugar levels naturally, within 60 days.
So do you know your cholesterol and blood sugar numbers yet?. It only costs RM25 / S$19 for a subsidised blood test at Gribbles (Msia) or Raffles Medical Group (Spore). It's time to get everyone tested, as prevention is always cheaper than the cure. Contact me for your subsidized blood test vouchers at Gribbles.
Or just invest in Bioslife today and you can prevent diabetes, heart attacks and strokes within your whole family including your kids, as young as 6.

Bioslife Slim launch in Singapore / Malaysia
Convergence of Trends
During dinner with friends this week, we were talking about the state of the economy, the stock market collapse, the recession fear, the professionals now taking Ah Long loans and the general perception of gloom and doom of the populace.
During the last recession in 1998, 10 years ago, fortunes were made by those who started working a network marketing business part time. And some networkers then, were earning a few thousand monthly within a short 3 months, up to a five figure income within 12 months.
At that time a few new products came out - The IES pack - a cleanse and detox program, Enjuvenate - the first anti-aging drink, Hawaiian Noni - the first in the market. Within a few years, competitors that sprang up have since dissappeared.
Fast forward to 2008, the economy is again faltering, and people are cautious about spending or investing their money in any new unproven products or business.
On November 8th at noon in Singapore and November 9th at 3pm in PJ, we are launching a new Fat Loss, Energy and Science based kosher vegetarian drink called Bioslife Slim (www.bioslifeslim.com) .
This orange flavoured fibre drink is made and patented in USA, listed in the Physicians Desk Reference 2007 (http://www.usa.makelifebetter.com/pdr.pdf) and clinically proven to manage healthy cholesterol, blood pressure and blood sugar levels.(www.unicityscience.org)
What makes this product so special is that everyone wants to lose some inches, and many people need to control their cholesterol, blood pressure and blood sugar safely. Would you like more energy and have a slimmer figure and some new clothes for Christmas and Chinese New Year?
But no ones wants to diet, or have a boring meal replacement, or to exercise, starve or have food cravings. For Bioslife Slim to work, you must eat your 3 meals and walk 10 minutes daily (but don't exercise), and drink your Slim drink 10 minutes before meals.
Anyone aged 6 and above will see results within 1 week and within 1 month, many people report a loss of 1-4 inches. Within 60 days, your bad LDL cholesterol will drop 31% and your good HDL will increase 29%.
The time - noon on 8th Nov in Singapore and 3pm on 9th Nov 2008 in PJ is now, the product is Bioslife Slim ( www.bioslifeslim.com) and the Bioslife Franchise system (www.bioslifeslimfranchise.com) is already proven in USA, EU, Korea, Japan, Hongkong and Taiwan.
The 5 reasons why Bioslife Slim makes good business sense is:-
1. Everyone wants to lose at least 1 inch either from their arms, thighs, waist, butt or hips
2. Slim works fast and people can feel lighter and see results within 1 week, so it's easy to sell and promote it to others
3. Age is not a number but a feeling and if you lack energy, you feel old. Everyone wants to have more energy and Slim helps.
4. Most people want to earn some extra income but cannot risk the high start up costs of a conventional business. The investment to be a global Franchisor is just 10 boxes of Bioslife Slim.
5. Everyone wants to look slimmer for the Christmas and New Year parties
Make a decision to be there at noon on Nov 8th Saturday at HDB Hub, Toa Payoh or 3pm on Nov 9th Sunday at Bgn Pan Global, Jl Tandang, to see and listen for youself, from the people who have lost weight and inches since the pre-launch on Sept 15. I am the Emcee for this event in PJ and I hope to see you there!.
Launch stocks are limited and 2-4 week back orders are expected. So if you can, please meet me at 2pm Nov 9th in PJ to secure your stocks.

4 reasons why Bioslife Slim works so effectively
There are 4 reasons why Bioslife Slim works so effectively to cause so many people to slim and lose inches, even in the first week.
1. Bioslife Slim is not a calorie reduction program, but uses a natural fat burning process, that is safe for even children age 6 and above. Bioslife Slim controls the sugar storage and burning, so you have a chance to continue burning fat, 24 hours daily.
2. By controlling the duration between your Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner, you allow your body to burn off your existing fat. There should be a 4 hour gap between breakfast and lunch, 4 hour gap between lunch and dinner and a 12 hour gap between dinner and breakfast.
This is the only fat loss program that wants you to eat your 3 meals daily, so that you don't have food cravings. Calorie reduction through meal replacements only lowers your Base Metabolic Rate, causing a sudden and massive weight gain after starting on real food again. Ask any Herballife ex customer!
3. If you need to eat between meals, snack on low glycemic food or fruits to ensure you continue to constantly burn fat.
4. We have mistaken the signal for thirst, with the signal for hunger. If you feel hungry, try drinking water instead and you will soon retrain your hunger and thirst signals.
In the short term, Bioslife Slim will keep you trim and slim and in the long term, Bioslife Slim will help you manage healthy cholesterol, blood pressure and blood sugar levels.
So have you done your cholesterol test yet and would you like to lose a few inches by Christmas?

Fat-Loss, Heart Attacks & Strokes - one solution
Stock markets are nose-diving down, wiping off trillions of dollars. Banks are collapsing and businesses everywhere, are reporting a slow down.
Singapore is officially in recession and some economists say this crisis will be worst than the 2002 and 1997 events.
If you are dependant on just one source of income, now is a good time to be an entrepreneur, and start a home based franchise business.
The Bioslife Slim pre-launch in Malaysia and Singapore in Sept 2008, saw sales increase by 37% month on month. In Germany sales up 400% and Korea up 250% month on month.
Bioslife Slim will grand launch in November 2008 in Malaysia, Singapore & Thailand and if you would like to get a piece of the cake and profit from this new Fat Loss science drink, the time is NOW!.
Go to www.youtube.com/onlineadvisor to see the 2 videos or my blogs at http://cholesterolcare.blogspot.com/ . As a result, our bodies end up storing more fat.
The hormone responsible for controlling how much fat the body stores is called “Leptin”. By regulating leptin we can effectively reduce fat storage and turn our body into a FAT BURNING machine!
And Bios Life Slim helps by stabilising the fat hormone “Leptin” so that our body can more efficiently burn fat. Thus we can slim and stay slim. Watch your body transform into a slimmer, more energetic you!
Bios Life Slim not only helps prevent our bodies from storing excess fat, but it also allows existing fat to be burned away - naturally. You don’t have to starve or go on a diet. No jitters, no starving and no stimulants. Just take your usual normal meals, after drinking “Bios Life Slim” 10 mins before your meal twice daily.
It is 100% safe, natural and has no known side effects. You should be able to see visible results in 90 days (3 mths), the time needed for your body’s ability to regulate fat. However, you will likely to see fat loss within the first six weeks. However, you can consume more Bios Life Slim to get faster results.
After 30 years of dieting, meal replacements, stimulants, and yo yo weight loss, finally Bioslife Slim orange drink with real science, will give you lots of Energy and give you permanent Fat Loss, not temporary weight loss.
Safe for children 6 years and above, just drink Bioslife Slim 10 minutes before your lunch and dinner, and watch your inches disappear.
Will you ride the orange wave and profit from the Bioslife Slim franchise?. I don’t know about you, but those that take action will certainly be happy helping others look better and feel better.
To start the Bioslife Slim franchise, you need initial stocks of 10 boxes and my global Franchise number 6641560 . Start up investment for your stocks is RM2,900 / S$ 1,284 inc GST.
The timing is ideal for Bios Life Slim as we already know, but the economic uncertainty is creating a great opportunity for us. More and more people are discouraged and despondent concerning the factors outside their control, that are affecting their earnings.
I believe there is a growing number of people who are ready to take control of their futures and are open to starting their own low-risk, low-expense businesses. Now is the time to be aggressive and find these people.

Fat loss main side effect of Bioslife Slim
Bioslife Slim is certified Halal and is registered with the Ministry of Health in Malaysia, is now in Pre-launch in Malaysia and Singapore.
Forget about dieting, starving, exercise, stimulants, caffeine, cigarettes, gym or weight loss studios to stay slim. All these options cost lots of money, pain and even more effort, but will only give temporary results, nothing permanent.
If you are sick and tired of safely and permanently losing your centimetres and weight, Bioslife Slim will be the safest yet effective option for anyone age 6 and above.
There are actually 2 versions of Bioslife. The original called Bioslife - is made and patented in USA, and clinically proven to safely manage healthy cholesterol. blood sugar and blood pressure levels, within 8 weeks.
In July 2008, a newer version Bioslife Slim was launched in USA, EU, Japan, Thailand and Hongkong. This new formula's added benefit is permanent fat loss within 90 days.

Most users see results within week 1 to 4, but to permanently stay slim, Bioslife Slim should be taken for 90 continous days.
Some people who eat little fibre, will experience side effects like gas, bloating, constipation or diarrhea for the first few days.
I have limited stocks left and can only confirm orders for the last 3 customers only - before 30th Sept. Those who miss this dateline, will sadly have to wait till next year, to start on their fat loss program.

Bioslife Slim coming to Malaysia in Sept 2008
FINALLY! A Real Solution for obesity! Return your body to handle fat, the way it was designed to!
Being overweight is a serious health threat that can lead to diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, and more. If I told you I have the solution to your weight problems, would you be open to exploring further?
Bios Life Slim™ is an all-natural, great-tasting, advanced fiber and nutrient drink mix that is specifically designed to help you lose those excess inches. It contains absolutely NO synthetic or herbal stimulants. Thus, it is perfectly safe for everyone including children adults and the elderly. It is not a diet or a weight loss product but a solution for obesity with lifetime results.
Bios Life Slim™ is a proprietary fat loss formula. Its unique matrix of soluble and insoluble fiber, vitamins, minerals and anti-oxidants, work together synergistically to improve our body's ability to regulate fat, at any age.
Bios Life Slim™ not only helps prevent our bodies from storing excess fat, but it also allows existing fat to be burned away - naturally...no jitters, no starving, no stimulants.
The most noticeable changes you can expect at first are an increase in energy and a reduction in appetite and cravings.
Bios Life Slim™ ...
Is Patented to Promote Fat Loss
Is Patented to Reduce Cholesterol
Lowers the Glycemic Index in Foods
Helps to Normalize Blood Sugar
Is Taken Twice a Day Before Meals
Tastes Great with a Mild Orange Flavor
Is guaranteed to work in 90 days risk free
How is this different from everything else You have tried?
Bios Life Slim™ is NOT another fad diet. It is a revolutionary way of thinking about weight loss. It works by stabilizing the fat hormone "leptin." This hormone is responsible for controlling how much fat the body stores. Over time, our bodies lose the ability to regulate these things because our levels of leptin get away from us. So, we eat more and store more fat. By regulating leptin, we can effectively reduce fat storage and turn the body into a fat burning machine!
A major error many people make is focusing on KILOS lost instead of FAT lost. Remember, muscle weighs more than fat. So, you may be losing fat and gaining muscle - resulting in a net gain of weight. This is why we measure in amount of FAT lost - not WEIGHT.
Bios Life Slim™ is the first real breakthrough in FAT LOSS in over 30 years. It targets fat while helping you gain muscle!
A leptin imbalance can also lead to a plethora of other health issues some of which include trouble sleeping, low energy levels, weak immune system, excessive appetite, and mood (depression/anxiety).
Bios Life Slim™ corrects this issue. By returning leptin to its appropriate level, we can help you reach your desired weight safely while giving you more energy and better overall health!
Be Safe and Be Slim in 90 days
Just use Bioslife Slim twice a day for three months, as recommended, and if you are not impressed with your results in 90 days, we will give you 100% of your money back! What do you have to lose other than some unwanted inches?
Proprietary Fat Loss PLUS Cholesterol Control - Bioslife Slim™ is based on the original Bios Life2, then Bioslife Complete™, which were the only clinically proven and safe alternative to safely lower cholesterol. Bios Life Slim™ improves on the formula by adding the power to lose unwanted inches!
First shipment coming in end September for selected customers to try out the 90 day challenge. Grand launch in January 2009. If you would like to lose your fat for 2009, please pre-order your 3 boxes of Bioslife Slim today.
Due to limited first shipment quantities, and pre-sales, I can only accept 3 box orders from the first 33 people.

75% of stroke and heart attack victims have normal cholesteol levels
If 75% of heart attack and stroke victims have normal cholesterol levels, then why do doctors still recommend dangerous statins to reduce high LDL cholesterol levels?
Actually the risk factors of getting a heart attack or stroke has to do with
a) Low HDL levels
b) High VLDL - Triglyceride levels
c) High Homocysteine levels
And statin drugs like Zocor and Lipitor, cannot raise HDL levels and lower triglyceride and homocysteine levels.
There is only 1 clinically proven, patented and all natural health drink called Bioslife, that can safely lower LDL, raise HDL, reduce VLDL Triglycerides and lower Homocysteine levels within 8 weeks.
Do your blood test today, drink Bioslife for 60 days and do a blood test again. Take the 60 day challenge risk free and prove it works or if you are sceptical, then prove that it does not work.

7 Complications of diabetes to worry you
1. 3-5 times higher risk of heart attacks and strokes 40% of those getting heart attacks are people with diabetes
2. Diabetes is the leading cause of patients requiring dialysis. 54% of kidney disease (nephropathy) patients are diabetics. The biggest reason people die is due to the lack of money, to do the thrice weekly dialysis.
3. Diabetes is the leading cause of blindness (retinopathy) in the world. After 5 years being diabetic, 38% will have vision problems and 14% will go blind.
4. Diabetes damages the nerves (neuropathy), leading to numbness, tingling, burning sensation or pain in the feet.
5. Wounds are slow to heal and 25% of diabetics will risk limb amputations
6. Diabetes leads to Erectile Dysfunction - the number 1 concern of all men
7. Diabetics prone to fungal skin infection
15 out of 100 Malaysians will suffer from diabetes, with similar statistics in every developing country.
The bad news is that there is no drug cure, just long term drug medication that will ultimately lead to a heart attack and/or stroke.
The good news is Bioslife, a safe, patented and clinically proven fibre drink, made in USA, can naturally manage healthy blood sugar levels within 60 days.
Take the Bios Life 60 day challenge and prove it yourself with your before and after blood test results.

Statins dangerously deplete CoQ10 levels
Statin drugs will slowly but surely dangerously deplete CoQ10 levels in the body, causing the heart to weaken and ultimately to congestive heart failure.
So the very drug that is supposed to protect you from heart attack and strokes actually will kill you anyway. If that's the case, why take statins in the first place?.
Simply put, the pharmaceutical industry that earns US$30 billion selling statin drugs, have so much power over governments, that they easily block safer alternatives like BiosLife from ever reaching those who want to healthily manage cholesterol, blood pressure and blood sugar levels.
Bios Life drink works 4 ways to raise your good HDL cholesterol by 29% and lower your bad LDL cholesterol by 31% within 60 days.
Take the 60 day challenge and prove it yourself with your own blood test results.

Dangers of Homocystein and Triglycerides
Heart attacks and strokes can and will happen to people with normal cholesterol levels. Yet drug companies tell you you have to lower your LDL, when in fact, its actually a high HDL level that can protect you.
But they have yet to find a safe drug to increase your good HDL and another drug to reduce your Homocystein and a further drug to reduce your Triglycerides.
While doctors themselves are afraid to take Statins, due to the dangerous side effects, they will insist their patients go on Statins, as this drug prescription gives them a long term residual income.

Cholesterol testing for toddlers aged 2
These drug companies have to stoop so low and now even frighten parents into testing their children as young as 2.
I think a resonable age to start testing would be early 20's, so that lifestyle changes can be done earlier and avoid the complications later on in life.
Anyway, all drugs are dangerous and have side effects, so the safest preventive thing you can do, to manage healthy cholesterol, blood pressure and blood sugar levels, is to drink your Bioslife at the earliest age you can afford it.
With Bioslife, you can enjoy a good bowel movement, have high energy levels and at the same time keep trim.
Don't let the doctors fool you, after all, the more people they have on life-long statin drugs, the more passive income they can earn, till the day you die.
Bioslife - the only clinically proven and patented statin alternative that can reduce your LDL by 31% and increase your HDL by 29% within 8 weeks, Guaranteed!.

How to Stop Worrying and Love your Fears
A few years ago, findings were published of a four-year study on happiness, at a major university.
The study revealed that the biggest factor influencing whether people experienced true happiness or not came down to one small four-letter word: RISK.
The people who were the most happy were the people who were willing to risk feeling unhappy or uncomfortable. The greater the willingness to risk, the greater the happiness.
Of course, the opposite held true—the people who were not willing to risk feeling unhappy or uncomfortable, were not, as a result, all that happy. Those people who went through life avoiding the valleys of unhappiness, discomfort, ambiguity, were the people who never scaled the highest peaks of happiness.
For example, if we want to experience the happiness of a loving relationship, we have to be willing to accept the heartbreak that might come with it. If we want the happiness of a healthy body, we have to risk the discomfort of exercise and proper diet. If we want a thriving and prospering Franchise, we have to risk the discomfort of approaching people and the possibility of rejection.
Mapmakers and the Unknown
For most of us, risk introduces an element of uncertainty or “the unknown” into our lives. We tend to fear the unknown, and that feeling of fear keeps us from exploring and discovering new things.
For instance, centuries ago, when mapmakers would draw maps, if they ran out of known territory before they ran out of parchment, they would draw dragons to indicate the unknown territory.
Some explorers took the dragons literally and never risked going beyond known territory. Others took the dragons as a sign of opportunity—an open door to new worlds.
We all have a mental map of the world. It has known and unknown territories. What are some of your mental dragons?
Risk and Building a Profitable Franchise
The truth is, what fuels your Franchise success is your ability to recruit 5 Franchise Partners and sign-up 20 Preferred Customers. Unfortunately, what’s the number one fear of most Franchise Owners?
That’s right, approaching other people and introducing them to Bios Life Slim and the Franchise Opportunity. The one activity that guarantees Franchise success, is the very thing that you’re afraid of!
However, it seems that there are plenty of Franchise Owners—despite the fear of recruiting—that are out there growing their business and building their Franchise. What do they know that you don’t know? The first thing is that they’ve come to terms with their fear of risk.
Do Something: Get a Grip on Your Fear of Risk
The dictionary tells us that fear is a chain reaction in the brain that starts with a stressful stimulus and ends with the release of chemicals that cause a racing heart, fast breathing, and energized muscles. A racing heart, fast breathing, energized muscles? It sounds like fear is nothing more than having the energy to do something—and doing something is the remedy to overcome fear!
Fear was never to be a reason to do nothing. Do you remember the term “fight or flight?” Both of those describe an action—not inaction. Picture yourself approaching a person to introduce them to Bios Life. Imagine you receive an extra burst of energy, your senses become sharpened, and you become more sensitive and aware—sounds nice doesn’t it. That’s exactly how you benefit from fear.
In short, our perception of fear is wrong. We’re used to thinking, “Fear creates a feeling in me that means don’t do it.” When, in reality, fear is the energy to do our best in a new situation.
We need to feel the fear and do it anyway because action absorbs anxiety. Fear should never keep us from doing what we know we should do.
As Preparation Increases, Fear Decreases
It’s a simple fact, the better prepared you feel, the less fear you’ll have when it comes to recruiting.
When it comes to recruiting, the three major areas in which any Franchise Owner can increase preparation are:
a) Who do you know?
b) What should you listen for?
c) What should you say?
a) Who do You Know?
Perhaps you feel some fear because you don’t know who to approach first. There are so many people out there—where do you begin? You’ll feel less fear and better prepared when you know who your prospective recruits are.
Your potential recruits will come from five categories:
Your friends, acquaintances, and relatives—also known as your Warm Market
Referrals from your Warm Market
New people you meet each day
People with whom you have something in common—also known as your Common Market
People you have not met yet—also known as your Cold Market
You can prepare today by building a list of your Warm Market and your Common Market. First, think of people in your immediate life—family members and friends. Then continue to expand and move outward, reaching more people as you go.
There are more people in your immediate life than you might think. Use the list provided in the forms in Chapter 21 of the Bios Life Franchise Owners Manual as a way to jog your memory for more possible contacts. This is a brainstorming activity, so include everyone you can think of, even if you don’t plan on calling them right away.
Creating your initial contact list will begin a productive and profitable habit. It’s crucial to maintain this habit. In fact, keep your contact list with you at all times—you never know when you might meet someone to add to the list, or have a moment to call someone you already know.
b) What Should You Listen For?
Did you notice that listening came before knowing what to say? That’s because the recruiting process is actually all about your prospect. By listening to them, you will hear all the clues you need to know in order to personalize your presentation and explain how your prospect will benefit from Bios Life and the Bios Life Franchise opportunity.
Possible clues to listen for:
Have mentioned that they would like to lose weight
Are currently trying a new diet
Feel tired all the time
Are worried about their spouse’s or kid’s weight
Are concerned about their family medical history
Are successful, but not content
Love their job, but want more out of life
Worry about downsizing or layoffs
Make good money, but have no time to enjoy it
Own a business that also owns them
Want a career change, but are finding it difficult due to educational restraints
Are entrepreneurial, always looking for good business ideas
Have small children or grandchildren in the home
Shop frequently at a health food store
Take vitamins and are interested in improving their health
Are worried about a health problem
Have a need or desire to improve their lives
Would benefit from the Bios Life Franchise opportunity
Want to get out of debt or pay off credit cards
Are worried about paying for college or retirement
Want an extra income so a spouse doesn’t have to work
Are currently working two jobs and are tired
You’ll be amazed at what you’ll learn about somebody just by listening—even when you’ve just met them.
c) What Should You Say?
There exists a phrase which seems to work very effectively here:
“Maybe you can help me…”
Then BAM! You are now engaged in an initial conversation. Why? People in our culture are programmed to help people. People like to feel appreciated, liked, and also worthy that you considered them as a person who could help you.
Try it as a lead to these statements:
“Maybe you can help me…”
“I represent a tremendous international franchise and we’re expanding in the area and we’re looking for people who might be interested in starting their own part-time franchise. Would something like that interest you?” “I’ve recently started a franchise that markets a new revolutionary fat-loss product. I’ve been impressed with what I’ve seen so far, but I’d be interested in getting your opinion. If I gave you a couple of brochures and showed you their website, would you be willing to let me know your thoughts?”
“I've bought a new franchise, marketing a safe, natural, clinically proven product that helps people better regulate their body fat. Not only does it help prevent fat absorption, but it also helps burn fat naturally. Would you keep it in mind when you hear of someone who may want to lose some fat? If you ever hear of anyone who may have a need for a product like this, would you kindly forward our contact information to them?” Works, doesn’t it?
Experience shows, however, that asking questions is more effective than making statements. In fact, the person who asks the questions controls the conversation. You may ask, “But wouldn’t the person doing the talking lead the conversation?”
It would seem that way, wouldn’t it? However, when you ask the right questions, you lead the other person exactly in the direction you want to take them.
And don’t forget to ask: “Really? Tell me more.”
Risk and Your Future Happiness
How determined we are to face our fears and move beyond them will absolutely effect our future success and prosperity.
What's the worst thing that can happen to you or your friend, if you didn't share the product benefits of Bioslife and the Bioslife Franchise opportunity?
Bioslife is the only safe, patented and clinically proven health drink to manage healthy cholesterol, blood pressure, blood sugar and fat levels. Do you blood test and take the 60 day challenge.

Healthy Times Singapore features Bioslife
Maybe a timely reminder to everyone to go do their blood tests to check their cholesterol numbers.
What if the results come back good?. Then congratulations. Take your bioslife to ensure your next 6 months test will also be good.
But what if the results come back not so good?. Congratulations too, as you have time to take your Bioslife over the next 60 days to ensure your next test shows a healthy result.
Don’t delay. Get your blood test done and check your blood pressure, blood sugar, HDL, triglycerides and homocystein levels for warning signs, that will eventually cause lots of pain and suffering.

Understanding the cholesterol test numbers
When you do your cholesterol test, your report will show many numbers. Understanding what they mean, is extremely important.
The 6 numbers you will see are
a) TC - Total Cholesterol (LDL + HDL)
b) LDL Cholesterol
c) HDL Cholesterol
d) CR - Cholesterol ratio
e) VLDL - Triglycerides
f) Homocystein
If your Total Cholesterol is too low, you also have a problem as cholesterol is required to produce hormones including sex hormones.
But if your Total Cholesterol is very high because of a high HDL Cholesterol reading, then your risk of Cardio Vascular Disease is low.
To prevent Heart Attacks, Strokes and other CVD diseases, watch that you have a High HDL, and low levels of Triglycerides and Homocystein levels.
With high HDL levels, your LDL will will drop naturally
Yesterday an acquaintance Krishnan, who just won some money in a lottery draw, had a heart attack and died. Bioslife was too expensive for him to invest in himself. Well I guess he lost, in the free lottery for Heart Attack and Strokes. What about you?
So do you know your cholesterol numbers?

Your doctor earns a passive income from Statins
Ever notice how happy your doctor is to quickly recommend some life long drugs to you like high blood pressure medication, diabetes drugs or statin drugs?
Simply put, one a drug customer, always a drug customer and your doctor can start plans to buy his next holiday home, another car or a boat.
That's the reason why statin drug companies have been so successful with their 2 blocbuster statin drugs Zocor and Lipitor - with sales close to US$30 billion yearly. With 70% of their customers in the USA, you will soon see lots of cholesterol marketing coming to Asia.
What does that mean to you and me?. Well if you are in the statin alternative market with a clinically proven, patented and natural product like Bioslife, then we are in for a boom time!.
Bioslife works as well as stain drugs, except that being non chemical, there are no statin side effects like liver damage, erectile dysfunction or muscle aches.
My new Bioslife franchisor Mun Leng, recently quit her full time job, as over the last 18 days, she has earned over RM 1,500, sharing the benefits of the Bioslife product and business.
Will the Bioslife Franchise business give you a passive business icnome to offset the global food and fuel price increases?. Or make life more bearable with the subprime crisis and the 400 point Wall Street drop yesterday? Talk is cheap. Let's see!.

The secret your doctor or cardiologist will not tell you
People including your doctor and cardiologist, are generally selfish and not willing to share information or products that cannot make them a profit.
Since your doctor gets paid only 2 ways, from consultation fees and from the 50-80% profits from your prescription drugs, it does not make sense for him to recommend Bioslife - a safer natural alternative to statin drugs, that pays him a 40% retail profit.
Is this a secret you would want your doctor to tell you?. Why certainly of course!
Take the Bioslife 60 day challenge and evaluate RISK FREE if Bioslife really can increase your good HDL cholesterol, decrease your bad LDL cholesterol, triglycerides and homocystein levels and manage healthy blood pressure and sugar levels.
Meaning if your day 0 and day 60 results, does not show any improvement, you get a full 100% refund, no questions asked.
Do note that if you are on statin medication, please do this Bioslife 60 day challenge together with your statins. Once you get your day 60 blood test result, you can meet up with your doctor to reduce your statin dosage.
Do you know your cholesterol numbers yet?. Contact me for a subsidized voucher from Pathlab and Gribbles.

Statin Drugs versus BiosLife
The drugs used by doctors to treat high cholesterol are called statin medications and come with a long list of well-documented side effects. In fact, it is estimated that over 25% of the population cannot take statin medications, because of their potential side effects.
Today billions of dollars are being spent by pharmaceutical drug companies to market statin medications, illustrating the size of this market. Because of the magnitude of the heart disease epidemic, the statin medications market is expected to exceed $30 billion in sales in 2008.
How many people do you believe, would prefer a natural alternative to chemical medications? What if you had exclusive marketing rights to the only safe, natural, clinically proven alternative to statin medications?
Without question Bios Life is the most effective, all-natural alternative to statin medications, for helping people reach and maintain healthy cholesterol levels. Not only is it equally effective as statins at lowering LDL (bad) cholesterol, it is also three times more effective at raising HDL (good) cholesterol.
Numerous clinical studies on Bios Life, has gained the attention of the American Heart Association who wrote a press release on Bios Life educating their members on the benefits of Bios Life. Their members—the cardiologists of the world—are facing more and more demands from their patients who do not want the potentially dangerous side effects of chemical, pharmaceutical drugs.
BiosLife is made and patented in USA, and is available today in 17 countries globally. If you would like to invest this healthy alternative to manage your cholesterol, blood pressure or blood sugar levels or to build the Bioslife franchise , I will be pleased to direct you to the local office in your country.

Raising your HDL naturally
High cholesterol, High cholesterol ratios, High LDL Cholesterol , Low HDL Cholesterol, High Triglycerides, High Homocysteine, High blood pressure, High sugar levels.
Notice how everyone focuses on the high componenets but not the most important - the low HDL
Simply put, a 1% drop in LDL reduces your heart disease risk by 2%.
But a 1% increase in HDL reduces your heart disease risk by 3%.
When your HDL cholesterol rises, mathematically, your ratios get better. HDL cholesterol also cleans up the excess LDL cholesterol resulting in a drop in LDL cholesterol numbers also.
Remember 75% of cholesterol is made by the liver, and 25% comes from your food. So you don't have to sacrifice your favourite food to enjoy healthy cholesterol levels.
Bioslife will raise HDL levels by 29% and lower LDL levels by 31% within 8 weeks. Take the 90 day challenge and do your blood test today. Drink Bios Life twice daily before your lunch and dinner and do your 2nd blood test at day 30 and the 3rd blood test at day 90.

Statin drugs side effects 2008 latest news
Here are links to more reputable and reliable 2008 articles by the News Media, Government and Institutions on the Side Effects of Statins and Diabetes Drugs.
FDA warns GlaxoSmithKline for not reporting safety studies of diabetes pill Avandia. Avandia received a black box warning, the most serious a drug can carry, last November. The labeling alerts doctors and patients that the drug could increase the risk of heart attacks, though the evidence is inconclusive.Sales of Avandia fell 22 percent last year to $2.4 billion for the year amid safety concerns. —– (International Herald Tribune, 8 April 2008)
Statins May Reduce Effectiveness of Rituxan® in Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. Statins, or cholesterol-lowering drugs, have demonstrated anticancer activity in some patients with cancer. These drugs are being evaluated for cancer prevention and treatment for certain types of cancer. —– (Cancer Consultants, 1 April 2008)
Doctors wary after cholesterol drug flop. The study was closely watched because Zetia and Vytorin have racked up $5 billion in sales despite limited proof of benefit. Some doctors noted that hormone pills for menopausal women and torcetrapib, a promising cholesterol drug Pfizer Inc. recently abandoned, also lowered cholesterol but were found in big studies to raise heart risks, not lower them. Many doctors have prescribed Vytorin without trying older, proven medications first, as guidelines advise.—– (Associated Press, March 30, 2008)
Drugs companies Merck and Schering-Plough ‘suppressed Ezetrol trial results’. A heavily promoted heart drug endorsed by the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) may be worthless, according to a newly published trial. The new trial was designed to compare the effects of simvastatin alone with simvastatin plus Ezetrol in slowing the progression of coronary artery disease in patients with familial hyper-cholesterolaemia – a condition in which a tendency to high cholesterol levels is inherited. The result was that adding Ezetrol did nothing to slow the progress of the disease. Plaque build-up on the artery walls was the same in patients who took the combination as it was in those who took simvastatin alone. Earlier studies have shown that plaque build-up is a good proxy for death rates. The more plaque, the more deaths. So most cardiologists will conclude that prescribing Ezetrol is unlikely to prolong the lives of their patients. —– (The Times, UK, March 31, 2008)
Takeda says to drop development of cholesterol drug. The move had been expected after U.S. authorities recommended late last year that Takeda Pharmaceutical halt higher dose trials of the drug, known as TAK-475, on safety concerns, (because it couldn’t prove its effectiveness or safety advantage over existing drugs) and company executives said little to dispel worries about its development prospects.It has since filed applications with U.S. authorities seeking approval for the other two — SYR-322, which belongs to a new class of diabetes treatments, and TAK-390MR, a successor to heartburn and ulcer drug Prevacid. TAK-475 is a squalene synthase inhibitor, a type of cholesterol-lowering drug that has not yet been brought to market. Had it been approved, it would have competed against Merck & Co. Inc’s and Schering-Plough Corp’s Zetia and Vytorin. —– (Reuters, Mar 28, 2008)
Merck, Schering Call on Doctors to Boost Vytorin Use. It’s unlikely they will listen. The Vytorin combination pill, costing about $100 a month, is five times more expensive than generic simvastatin. The Enhance study was designed to persuade doctors and insurers that Vytorin is worth the extra expense. The study’s failure may be used by insurers to encourage the use of simvastatin instead. —– (Bloomberg, March 27 2008)

FDA Warns on Red Yeast Rice. Red yeast rice, a popular cholesterol-lowering dietary supplement could carry some serious health risks. The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has issued a warning that some brands of supplements may contain a prescription medication (known as Red Yeast Rice - lovastatin) that could be harmful to your health. Lovastatin can also cause severe muscle problems that could result in kidney damage.This risk is especially true if higher doses of lovastatin are taken or if lovastatin is combined with other medications that can also create greater susceptibility to muscle problems. Lovastatin can also interact dangerously with medications such as the antidepressant Nefazodone, certain antibiotics, drugs used to treat fungus infections, drugs used to treat HIV infections, as well as other cholesterol-lowering drugs.The FDA has ordered the makers of the red yeast rice products in question to stop marketing the supplements. Consumers are also being advised to stop taking a red yeast rice supplement if it’s one of these three types: Red Yeast Rice sold by Swanson Health Products Inc. and manufactured by Nature’s Value Inc. and Kabco Inc., Red Yeast Rice/Policosanol Complex also sold by Swanson Health Products Inc. and manufactured by Nature’s Value Inc. and Kabco Inc., and Cholestrix, sold by Sunburst Biorganics.—– (News Inferno, March 07, 2008)
GAO to Investigate Approval By FDA of 2 Popular Drugs. The Government Accountability Office will look into whether the Food and Drug Administration’s drug-review process cleared two popular medications without sufficient proof of their safety or effectiveness, a senator said yesterday. Sen. Charles E. Grassley (R-Iowa) requested the GAO investigation after recent studies suggested that the diabetes pill Avandia and the cholesterol drug Vytorin may not lower the risk of heart attack and artery-clogging plaque, as assumed by millions of patients and doctors. . —– (Washington Post, March 5, 2008)
Statins awful side effects. I have listened to Statin-injured people who will never be able to trust a physician again and that’s a shame because physicians are also victims of statin propaganda. The stories of real people being hurt by the drugs they are prescribed by their well-meaning physicians contain narratives too compelling to ignore. - Alan Cassels is a pharmaceutical policy researcher at the University of Victoria and a frequent commentator on prescription drug issues. —– (Common Ground, 4-Mar-2008)
Nonprescription Heart Medicine: Too Risky? “The elderly fare even worse and are more susceptible to problems” related to side-effects from statins and are less likely to take them correctly, University of Kentucky College of Medicine professor Thomas F. Whayne Jr says. “OTC statin availability to patients at high risk for adherence problems has the potential for significant harm that may remain undetected until appropriate management may be too late.” —— (UK News, 3-Mar-2008)
The Failure of Cardiovascular Medication. February is American Heart Month. It is ironic that in February of 2008 several high profile human cardiovascular drug experiments have turned into disasters for Big Pharma. These findings are sure to shake the misguided consumer confidence in drugs as a mainstay of preventive cardiovascular health. Hanging in the balance are billions of dollars of fraudulent drug sales based on the flimsy argument that changing numbers (blood sugar, cholesterol, or blood pressure) with the use of toxic drugs is somehow the same as actually being healthy. Baby boomers are the target market, a group that had no trouble rebelling in the 60s and 70s. How long will it take them this time to open their eyes to the drug-induced death march of Big Pharma? —– (American Chronicle, March 03, 2008)
Tendon complications, though rare, linked to statins. The results showed that of the 4,597 side effects associated with statins, about two percent were attributed to tendon complications. Symptoms usually occurred within 8 months of beginning statin therapy. Most patients had tendonitis, but some also suffered ruptured tendons. The most common tendon affected was the Achilles tendon, with pain, swelling, warmth, and stiffness as the most common symptoms. Seventeen of the patients had symptoms severe enough to warrant hospitalization. The researchers were able to link the tendon problems to statin use based on the fact that the symptoms appeared after the Statins were started, they improved when the statins were stopped and they recurred in all of the patients who restarted the therapy. —– (EurekAlert, 28-Feb-2008)
Alternatives to the ‘utter folly’ of statins. First there’s the tiny problem of them blocking Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), low tissue levels of which have indisputably been linked to heart disease. Then there’s the problem of them increasing our risk of depression, which doubles an otherwise-healthy person’s heart attack risk. Statins do effectively block cholesterol, but severely lowering cholesterol can create problems all its own. Sufficient circulating cholesterol is what keeps our cell membranes from becoming too porous, which is not exactly trivial, given that when our cells become porous our bodies release cortisol in response to what is perceived as an emergency—and high cortisol levels of course increase inflammation and damage our blood vessels. And finally, by taking hostage the most basic of tools we have for keeping high insulin levels and inflammation and obesity and heart disease at bay, Statins can have a profound muscle-weakening effect. —– (Vue Weekly, February 28, 2008)
Anti-cholesterol drugs may damage cellular power station. Certain cholesterol-reducing drugs appear to damage mitochondria, the tiny power stations inside living cells.

Depression Added As Possible Side Effect For Vytorin, Zetia. In letters to the drugs’ co-marketers, Schering-Plough Corp. (SGP) and Merck & Co. (MRK), the FDA said depression would be added to the section of the drugs’ package insert concerning adverse reactions in post-marketing experience.

Pay careful attention to Manufacturers’ Prescription Instructions to Doctors (that are included in all statin drugs’ packaging containers) . Those listed in their Side Effects warnings on these Prescribing Instructions usually represent known side effects (if they are new drugs). When adverse drug reactions are reported from users of the drug, FDA will issue supplementary “Dear Doctor” letters and Black Box sticker warnings of adverse drug reactions (These are serious warnings to doctors by FDA indicating some patients have had life-threatening experiences taking the medication) . At this stage, the risk of the stated side effects are expected to be higher and there may be a possibility of other (unknown) side effects emerging. Your health is at risk if you continue to take such drugs after such FDA warnings had been issued. Get a second medical opinion if your regular doctor continues to ask you to take such drugs - preferably from a doctor who is more opened to alternative treatments.

What's your excuse
I was thinking this week about how many people actually know their cholesterol, pressure and blood sugar numbers.
I guess there everyone falls into one of these 4 categories
a) Those who know their numbers and are taking a statin drug or supplement like BiosLife
b) Those who know their numbers and are not addressing the preventive or curative options, due to severe statin side effects.
c) Those who know they have to do their test, but don't believe a heart attack or stroke will happen to them.
e) Those who don't know their numbers out of sheer ignorance
Well it only costs RM25 / S$19 and 10 minutes of your time.
If the numbers are good, keep it up and continue doing all the right things and eating your fibre.
And if the numbers are not so good, then you can start taking corrective action early, before a disaster strikes, causing an emotional and financial disaster to yourself and family.
So do you know your cholesterol numbers yet?. Do it today and don't delay. Ask me how to get these subsidised vouchers at Pathlab/Gribbles in Malaysia and the Raffles Medical Group in Singapore.
Prevention is a less stressful and certainly cheaper than an untimely death, stroke and loss of earnings. Will you do your cholesterol test today?

Why women must rough it
Roughing It - How adding fiber to your diet will help prevent heart disease & diabetes and prevent most cancers.
Heart disease is a critical health issue for Americans. In fact, heart disease is the leading cause of death and a major cause of disability in the US, according to the Centers for Disease Control.
Although commonly mistaken as a disease affecting mostly men and the elderly, heart disease is also a serious health risk for women of all ages. In fact, one in every three women will die from heart disease, compared to one in 30 who will die from breast cancer.
The good news is that heart disease is largely preventable through positive lifestyle changes. Research shows that a diet rich in fiber reduces the incidence of risk factors for heart disease.
What is Dietary Fiber?
Dietary fiber describes the part of plant foods that your body can’t digest. Fiber is present in all plants that are eaten for food, including fruits, vegetables, grains, and legumes. Fiber can be divided into two types: soluble and insoluble. These types of fiber have different effects on glucose metabolism—which is the rate at which your body processes sugar
Soluble Fiber
Soluble fiber dissolves in water, forming a gel in the intestines. The beneficial effects of soluble fibers are reduced glucose and insulin responses because it slows the effect of carbohydrate absorption and digestion.
Insoluble Fiber
Insoluble fiber doesn’t dissolve in water and increases the movement of material through your digestive tract allowing less time for carbohydrates to be absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract, thus relieving insulin demand.
How Much Fiber?
The average American’s daily intake of fiber is about 5 to 14 grams per day. However, recommendations from the National Academy of Sciences, Institute of Medicine are that adults consume 21 – 30 grams or dietary fiber per day, depending on age and gender.
Fiber and Heart Disease
High intake of dietary fiber has been linked to a lower risk of heart disease, diabetes and cancer in a number of large studies that followed people for many years. These early nutrition research findings have been borne out by countless subsequent studies. One recent study found that every additional 10 grams of fiber consumed on a daily basis cuts the risk of coronary heart disease death by 27 percent.
In a Harvard study of over 40,000 male health professionals, researchers found that a high total dietary fiber intake was linked to a 40 percent lower risk of coronary heart disease, compared to a low fiber intake. A related Harvard study of female nurses produced quite similar findings.
Another study of over 31,000 California Seventh-day Adventists found a 44 percent reduced risk of nonfatal coronary heart disease and an 11 percent reduced risk of fatal coronary heart disease for those who consumed more fiber in their diets. One minor change in their diets provided a protective effect that could save their lives.
Another strong predictor of heart disease is abnormal blood cholesterol levels. Soluble fiber reduces the absorption of cholesterol in your intestines by binding with bile (which contains cholesterol) and dietary cholesterol so that the body excretes it.
While atherosclerotic heart disease (the process of progressive thickening and hardening of the walls of arteries from fats and cholesterol deposits on their inner lining) is the most prevalent cause of death, it is perhaps the most modifiable one.
Fiber and Type 2 Diabetes
Type 2 diabetes is the most common form of diabetes. Diabetes leads to heart disease and stroke. It’s characterized by sustained high blood sugar levels. It tends to develop when the body can no longer produce enough of the hormone insulin to lower blood sugar to normal levels or cannot properly use the insulin that it does produce.
Research has shown that consuming fiber can help prevent this form of diabetes. Dietary fiber slows the absorption of food so that blood sugar does not rise as rapidly, while also reducing insulin secretion. This was demonstrated in a study published in 2004 in which a high fiber intake led to improved glycemic control, along with reduction of blood pressure and serum cholesterol and triglyceride levels .
A German clinical trial reported that eating a fiber-rich diet for only three days improved insulin sensitivity in overweight and obese women by 8 percent. If a diet intervention this small can have that great of an impact, you can imagine what years of following a high-fiber diet would do.
The good news for those with diabetes is that increasing your fiber now can also prevent long-term complications from diabetes. Soluble fiber has been found to produce significant reductions in blood sugar. In clinical intervention trials ranging from two to 17 weeks, consumption of fiber was shown to decrease insulin requirements in people with type 2 diabetes. If you've ever had to inject yourself with insulin, you can appreciate how much easier and less painful it would be to increase your fiber intake to avoid the need for insulin injections.
Fiber for Weight Control and Fat Loss
One of the most alarming health concerns of the last decade is explosive growth in the number of people—especially younger people—who are overweight or obese.
A 1997 study investigated the effects of one week of supplementation with guar gum (a water-soluble fiber found in the Biosphere Fiber of Bios Life) on hunger and satiety, as well as calorie intake, in obese test subjects. Adding fiber to the diet decreased food intake, and subjects on a reduced-calorie diet reported diminished hunger after supplementing with fiber. Thus, fiber may assist in weight-management programs by promoting a feeling of fullness, decreasing hunger, and promoting adherence to a reduced-calorie diet.
Another study confirmed these effects. When overweight individuals added 14 grams of fiber daily to their otherwise unrestricted diet, they consumed 10 percent fewer calories. This led to an average of 4.2 pounds of weight loss in just under four months.
These factors are especially important in treating obesity in children, according to the Department of Pediatrics at Harvard Medical School, which notes that modern nutritional research indicates an important role for fiber in regulating body weight.
