A Detoxification Gift from The Sonoran Desert

Pollution, as we know is all around us from the air we breathe, to the food we eat. There is no escape from toxins as they invade our bodies in a variety of different ways. Since we can't completely stop toxins from their destructive path, we can fight back!

Countless native Americans know the land holds many natural healing secrets, and one such secret is found in the desert, the Sonoran desert to be precise.

There are 24 known Betalains all of which are essential for human health. Betalains are anti-toxin and anti-inflammatory, we all could use some of that!

There is a leader amongst the Betalains that helps detoxify and it's called beta xanthine. Beta xanthine is an important friend when it comes to detoxifying your liver and kidneys. Our bodies burn food in order to create energy and build health. As previously mentioned, toxins are on a never ending quest from both the outside elements and inside elements, which in turn hampers the body from doing it's job effectively.

A key player in creating toxins from within our body is uric acid. Uric acid is excreted by the kidneys, and too much build up of uric acid is poisonous and has been associated with heart disease, diabetes, metabolic syndrome, kidney stones and gout. Our kidneys are delicate and easily damaged by dehydration with too much protein, sugar, toxic metals like mercury and toxins like aspirin. Even temperature extremes like heat can affect them.

Our liver neutralizes uric acid with enzymes, and those same enzymes also detoxify many other poisons. Thus improving liver detoxification of uric acid helps in detoxifying other poisons which is a very good thing indeed! If your liver is fatty, sluggish or toxic, chances are you will be unable to complete the detoxification process...Guess what, with the help of our new found friend from the Sonoran Desert, Betalain beta xanthine can help improve your chances of detoxification as it aids by neutralizing toxins such as uric acid, thus increasing liver detoxification enzymes that clean up both outside and inside toxins, and as an added bonus, it may even reduce the shock our kidneys face from excessive heat! Now that's a win...win!

So drink in the wellness of the Betalain beta xanthine to help protect your precious assets, the liver and kidneys. Helping to detoxify your body, ultimately gaining better overall health!

A Little Known Beauty Secret Found in Nopal Fruit

In the dry desert landscape there grows a plant with sharp needles, that can appear to be as unfriendly as the rattlesnakes, and lizards that dwell amongst it. Yet this amazing cactus plant is host to a most beautiful flower, adding color to this desolate land. It is the base of this pleasing flower that holds a key to helping our skin stay younger.

The lovely pinkish color is the precursor to a prestigious class of nutrients called "Betalains", as the Betalains give the fruit it's appealing color. These impressive nutrients are bioflavonids which are part of the Quercetin household. Bioflavonoids are a vitamin like substance that works in alliance with antioxidants such as Vitamin C. These colleagues work together to help our bodies make collagen, which makes our skin soft and supple, and helps strengthen our blood vessels, so we don't bruise so easily.

As we age and lose collagen, the structural protein that helps provide healthy elasticity, our skin thins, and as a result men and women fight to keep a youthful appearance from such predators as:

Crow's Feet - The outer corner of the eyes and upper and lower eyelids can become saggy and baggy as collagen levels lessen. Tear troughs (deep hollows under the eye sockets) can also form.

Drooping Brows - Depleting collagen can cause your eyebrows to droop, resulting in a hooded look over the eyelids.

Nasolabial Folds - Lack of collagen increases the appearance of the lines that run from the nose to the corners of the mouth.

Jowls- Jowls are due to excess skin, which occurs from a decrease in collagen, elastin and volume, drawing attention to unrefined contours.

Thin lips - Lost collagen leads to the development of lip lines and a loss of volume. Just to name a few.

In a society that spends billions with a "B" to stay youthful, with expensive cosmetic surgery, paying premium prices for fancy creams and lotions, countless visits to the dermatologists for botox injections, and other skin procedures, all in pursuit of beauty, could there be some help in the battle?

We all have heard people talk about how someone is beautiful on the inside. This is important, from the view point that good health is directly reflected on the outside of our bodies. Hence another saying "you are what you eat". In the ongoing battle for youthfulness, the fight should begin from within by taking good care of you. Start by eating a balance diet, drink lots of water, get plenty of sleep, and don't forget to take your Betalins in order to help make collagen, which in turns helps your skin look more vigorous and fresh.

One more piece of news for you regarding Betalins, it can also help reduce inflammation which Time Magazine deemed "The Silent Killer", sounds like a win, win to me...I take my Betalins, do you?

If you would like to drink in these powerful healing nutrients, the best source I have found is in a product called Sonoran Bloom Nopalea. Like to try a FREE sample of this awesome product through The Sonoran Bloom Nopalea Free Gift of Health? Simply fill out the Free Gift of Health form, indicate you would like to try Sonoran Bloom Nopalea! Soon you too can drink in the wellness!

What is Inflammation?

Inflammation is a process by which the body's white blood cells and chemicals protect us from infection and foreign substances such as bacteria and viruses.

In some diseases, however, the body's defense system (immune system) inappropriately triggers an inflammatory response when there are no foreign substances to fight off. In these diseases, called auto immune diseases, the body's normally protective immune system causes damage to its own tissues. The body responds as if normal tissues are infected or somehow abnormal. What diseases are associated with inflammation?

Some, but not all, types of arthritis are the result of misdirected inflammation. Arthritis is a general term that describes inflammation in joints. Some types of arthritis associated with inflammation include:

Rheumatoid arthritis
Shoulder tendinitis or bursitis
Gouty arthritis
Polymyalgia rheumatica

Other painful conditions of the joints and musculoskeletal system that are not associated with inflammation include osteoarthritis, fibromyalgia, muscular low back pain and muscular neck pain.

What are the symptoms of inflammation?

Inflammation is characterized by:

Redness Swollen joint that is warm to touch
Joint pain
Joint stiffness
Loss of joint function

Often, only a few of these symptoms are present.

Inflammation may also be associated with general "flu-like" symptoms including:

Fever
Chills
Fatigue/loss of energy
Headaches
Loss of appetite
Muscle stiffness

So what can you do about inflammation appropriately called "The Silent Killer" and for good reason as mentioned above. One thing you can do as a proactive approach to reducing inflammation is to try the juice of the Nopal cactus fruit which contains Betalains. Betalaines are a rare and potent class of antioxidants that flourish in the Nopal cactus fruit. Nopalea harnesses the power of this desert superfruit and its betalains to bring you scientifically proven health benefits.

Betalains are the pigments that give the Nopal cactus fruit its vibrant pink color. But that's just the beginning. They're also natural antioxidants-and they're only found in a few of the world's plants.

The Nopal fruit isn't just included in this small group of special plants, it actually leads the group by containing one of the highest amounts of betalains in all of nature.

So how can you harness the power of this desert superfruit?

When you drink Sonoran Bloom Nopalea, you take these betalains into your system, where they begin to restore your vitality on a cellular level. By helping the body reduce the toxins surrounding your cells and enabling essential nutrients to reach each cell, the betalains in Sonoran Bloom Nopalea can reduce the inflammation in your body that leads to disease.

The Silent Killer Called Inflammation

According to a recent article in Time magazine there is a potential killer that lies within, and its called inflammation. Inflammation is a condition that occurs when the body's natural immune response goes awry. It can go undetected for years, continually assaulting the brain, heart and immune system.

Inflammation is a process by which the body’s white blood cells and chemicals protect us from infection and foreign substances such as bacteria and viruses. When inflammation occurs normally, chemicals from the body’s white blood cells are released to protect us from foreign substances. Sometimes, however, the white blood cells and their inflammatory chemicals cause damage to the body’s tissues.

In some diseases, however, the body’s defense system (immune system) inappropriately triggers an inflammatory response when there are no foreign substances to fight off. In these diseases, called auto immune diseases, the body’s normally protective immune system causes damage to its own tissues. The body responds as if normal tissues are infected or somehow abnormal.

What can YOU do to slow down this "Silent Killer"

Betalains are a rare and potent class of antioxidants that flourish in the Nopal cactus fruit. Nopalea harnesses the power of this desert superfruit and its betalains to bring you scientifically proven health benefits.

Fighting Inflammation

In an article called, Inflammation: The New Medical "Bad Guy", by Bruce Bailey, Ph.D., starts by writing, "according to the latest medical theory, chronic inflammation is the root cause of almost every disease suffered by human beings." This should NOT be new news to anyone, as Hippocrates had this same theory hundreds of years ago.

What is inflammation?

According to Dr. Bailey, "as a part of our immune response system, inflammation occurs when the body is fighting germs that enter the body through a variety of ways, e.g. injury or inhalation. When you experience redness, swelling, heat, infection, and pain from a variety of ailments, it's a sign of inflammation".

So what happens if we fail to effectively fight and/or stop the inflammation? Dr. Bailey says"normally, the inflammation goes away when the body has conquered the infection or injury, but if the body fails to shut off the inflammation process, a more serious condition can occur."

What types of serious conditions is Dr. Bailey talking about? The most serious condition is a heart attack. If you have never considered inflammation and a heart attack related, look at Dr. Bailey's response to how inflammation can cause a heart attack.

"It is generally recognized that heart attacks occur when the blood vessels become clogged with 'plaque' (what we usually refer to as the bad LDL cholesterol) that is deposited on the vessel walls. This bad cholesterol also gets embedded inside arteries and our immune system 'attacks' it. Persistent inflammation in the arteries can eventually cause plaque to burst. Now many doctors use a simple blood test for inflammation called CRP (short for C-reactive Protein) to help assess a person's cardiac risk. CRP is an index of inflammation in the arteries and the CRP increases as inflammation increases. For example, test have shown that middle aged men with high CRP levels in their blood were three times more likely to suffer a heart attack in the next 6 years than men with normal levels. Medical experts say that a CRP of 3.0 mg/L or higher triples your heart attack risk. People with CRP less than 0.5 mg/L rarely have heart attacks."

How can we prevent heart attacks, fight inflammation, and lower our cholesterol all at the same time?

Most doctors will tell you diet and exercise are the best ways to lower cholesterol. However, does diet and exercise help fight inflammation? "According to the Center for Human Nutrition at Johns Hopkins School of Public Health, some foods can cause inflammation while others can decrease it. Diets that are rich in fruits and vegetables, and foods that offer lots of Omega-3 fatty acids (such as salmon, tuna, mackerel, and walnuts) are best. Further, a diet of such foods has been shown to be instrumental in weight reduction, and lowering CRP and insulin resistance."

Since "chronic inflammation is the root cause of almost every disease" including heart attacks, we should take every measure possible to keep our bodies healthy and operating at peak performance. One way to keep your body operating efficiently and to also combat any germs and/or toxins that may exist inside your body is to drink TriVita's Sonoran Bloom Nopalea on a daily basis.

Why? Because Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™ helps to fight inflammation naturally, through betalains, a very effective anti-inflammatory fighter which is found in the Nopal cactus, the key ingredient of Nopalea.

If it's true what Hippocrates said many years ago, that "all disease is one", and what doctors agree upon today, "chronic inflammation is the root cause of almost every disease", and if the majority of diseases are in some way related to inflammation, germs and toxins, doesn't it make sense to try TriVita's Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™,

Inflammation and Autoimmune Disease Is There An Association?

Do you suffer from an autoimmune disease, if you do, you are not alone. According to the US Department of Health and Human Services, there are over 80 autoimmune diseases, affecting millions of people, dishing out such mayhem as rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, lupus, type 1 diabetes and many more.

Let's start with understanding autoimmune dysfunction

Our immune system, is intended to protect us from illness and harmful substances called antigens. Normally, the immune system in response to antigens such as bacteria, viruses and toxins, produces antibodies that affix themselves to the antigens, ultimately destroying them and removing them from the body. Characteristics of a autoimmune disorder is when the immune system cannot differentiate antigens from normal cells. As a result, turns on itself trying to annihilate normal healthy tissue.

In alliance with our immune system is inflammation.

Inflammation fights side by side in defense by warding off such bad guys as germs and toxins. When the enemy shows up such as viruses or parasites inflammation attacks the trespassers and surrounds tissue that may have been debilitated or infected. It then subsides so the healing can begin. As defiant a soldier inflammation can be, it too can also spin out of balance by not getting the proper message from the commanding officer to stop the fight; not shutting off!

Such an aggressive defense team interwoven so carefully together for our good, can and does sometimes lead to the declaration of war as the body turns on itself assaulting normal healthy muscles and tissue. This in turn continually sounds the alarm for inflammation to continue the attack becoming ongoing and excessive!

As researchers and medical professionals continue to work on answers. What can be done to protect the body from chronic inflammation? They know that inflammation does have a big impact on chronic diseases. Inflammation is a very dangerous enemy indeed.

There is hope on the horizon to lessen the affects of inflammation, and it comes in the form of natural alternatives, such as diet, exercise, losing excess fat, and taking certain nutritional supplements.

One nutritional inflammation fighter is the amazing Betalins. Betalins can bring relief from pain by reducing inflammation, ultimately helping the body function better overall. Now isn't that a relief?

Until the battle is won as to why some immune systems cannot recognize antigens from normal cells, along with its counterpart, out of control inflammation, take heed in the fight with a wellness drink called Sonoran Bloom Nopalea! Come taste and feel the difference! Sonoran Bloom Nopalea

Inflammation - 112

I've been writing about inflammation, its causes, and how to fight it. My articles typically involve sharing information I found when doing searches on Google. I receive weekly health and wellness newsletters that contain important information regarding your health. As part of my passion for healthier lifestyles, I like to share that information with you.

There has never been a more important newsletter than the one I received this past weekend. It's by TriVita, and is written by Brazos Minshew, TriVita's Chief Science Officer. The article is called Important Health News - Protect Yourself from the Flu. As we all know, unless you've been living under a rock, the H1N1 flu virus is attacking Americans at an alarming rate.

Is there a way to protect your self from the H1N1 virus? According to Mr. Minshew, when it comes to fighting the flu we need to focus on three pathways, transmission, infection, and inflammation. In his article, he explains his theory. However, I'd like to focus on the third pathway, inflammation. Below is an excerpt form his article. To read the complete article, copy and paste the link at the bottom of this article into your web browser.

Inflammation

We will begin at the ending: Inflammation from the immune system that incapacitates - even kills - people when they have the flu. MOST IMPORTANT: The flu kills people not by transmission or by infection, but by an inflammatory immune system response called the "cytokine storm."

Our immune system is designed to neutralize and excrete any non-self protein it finds. That includes the influenza virus. The size of the immune response needs to be equivalent to the strength of the invader.

Think of this as a building on fire: small fires are extinguished by local fire fighters. Some fires are so big that fire fighters from other departments have to be called in to help. So, fires are designated as "one-alarm,""two-alarm,""three-alarm,"and so on. At a certain point, our immune system pulls all of the alarms and immune system fractions from all over our body rush to put out the fire, so to speak. However, this is a case of fighting fire with fire. Cytokines are inflammatory. They kill viruses and bacteria by creating inflammation.

The cytokine storm is responsible for all of the symptoms we feel: fever, body aches, nausea, diarrhea, etc. It is also responsible for filling the lungs with mucous (pneumonia/pneumonitis) which is often the fatal trigger in influenza, SARS, Hanta virus, bubonic plague, etc.

To survive we must modulate the cytokine storm so that it does its job but doesn't overwork and kill us. We make it work smarter, not harder. So we don't use Vitamin C or Echinacea or anything that "boosts"the immune system. We use immune system modulators so we get exactly the right response. Quercetin (Betalains in Sonoran Bloom Nopalea are quercetin bioflavonoids), green tea polyphenols (found in Energy Now!) and ginseng (Panax and Eleutherococcus found in Adaptogen 10 Plus) all balance the immune system and decrease the cytokine storm.

I know this may sound somewhat like an advertisement for TriVita products, well yes, and no. In my opinion, it's a way to protect yourself from the H1N1 virus. I believe we need help prevent the spreading of this terrible virus, and one way to do is is to protect yourself from getting it.

Mr. Minshew mentioned Sonoran Bloom Nopalea is his article. Nopalea helps to fight inflammation naturally, through betalains, a very effective anti-inflammatory fighter which is found in the Nopal cactus.

Inflammation and Alzheimer's Disease

I'm always into sharing information I find and/or receive regarding our health. Today I'd like to share an article I received regarding inflammation and its affect on the development of Alzheimer's disease. I'm including the article in its entirety to prevent any misinterpretation.

The article is written on October 22, 2009 by Patrycja Podrazik for Health Resources News. If you suffer from any form of inflammation or you know someone suffering from Alzheimer's disease, I highly suggest that you read this article.

A recent study has shed light on inflammatory mechanisms that may contribute to the development of Alzheimer’s disease, an incurable neurodegenerative condition.

Research by Dr. William A. Banks, professor of geriatrics and pharmacological and physiological science at Saint Louis University School of Medicine, suggests inflammation causes a blood-brain barrier transporter known as LRP to malfunction.

The blood-brain barrier is a system of cells that regulates the exchange of substances between the brain and the blood, and LRP removes amyloid beta protein—the same compound that is found to accumulate in the brains of those affected by Alzheimer’s—from the brain and into the bloodstream.

"We induced inflammation in mice and found that it turned off the LRP pump," explains Banks.

"It also revved up an entrance pump that transports amyloid beta into the brain. Both of these actions would increase the amount of amyloid beta protein in the brain," he adds.

Natural compounds including antioxidants and vitamin D have been proven to reduce inflammation as well as contribute to weight loss and control, heart health and cancer prevention.

For those who may not get enough antioxidants from their diet, nutritional health supplements may be a good alternative. (ADNFCR-1960-ID-19265496-ADNFCR)*

I've written many articles about inflammation, and it seems that inflammation continues to be at the root of most diseases. I know what Hippocrates said, "all disease is one", and I wonder if he was referring to inflammation. Today, inflammation is the number one medical issue facing people in North America.

Fighting inflammation is an ongoing problem. There are many man-made prescription anti-inflammatory drugs on the market today. However, many of them can had adverse side-effects, especially if you're taking other medications. That's why TriVita has developed and tested Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™.

Nopalea helps to fight inflammation naturally, through betalains, a very effective anti-inflammatory fighter found in the Nopal cactus. When these betalains enter into your system, by drinking Nopalea™, they begin to restore your vitality on a cellular level. By helping the body reduce the toxins surrounding your cells and enabling essential nutrients to reach each cell, the betalains in Nopalea™ can reduce the inflammation in your body that leads to disease.

Fight Inflammation with Nopalea - 1016

"Chronic pain lasts at least 6 months after your body has healed. Sometimes, people who have chronic pain don't know what is causing it. Along with discomfort, chronic pain can cause low self-esteem, depression and anger. It can also interfere with your daily activities."

"Treatment of chronic pain usually involves medicines and therapy. Medicines used for chronic pain include pain relievers, antidepressants and anticonvulsants. Different types of medicines help people who have different types of pain. You usually use long-acting medicines for constant pain. Short-acting medicines treat pain that comes and goes."

"Several types of therapy can help ease your pain. Physical therapy (such as stretching and strengthening activities) and low-impact exercise (such as walking, swimming or biking) can help reduce the pain. However, exercising too much or not at all can hurt chronic pain patients. Occupational therapy teaches you how to pace yourself and how to do ordinary tasks differently so you won't hurt yourself. Behavioral therapy can reduce your pain through methods (such as meditation and yoga) that help you relax. It can also help decrease stress." [1]

Lifestyle changes are an important part of treatment for chronic pain. Getting regular sleep at night and not taking daytime naps should help. Stopping smoking helps, also, because the nicotine in cigarettes can make some medicines less effective. Smokers also tend to have more pain than nonsmokers.

It has been reported that many forms of chronic pain comes from inflammation. Inflammation is an immune response; a response to an infection, an irritation, or an injury. Immune cells are called to the site through the blood stream. The blood vessels near the site become miraculously permeable and the site becomes warm and red due to the increased blood flow (warm, hence inflammation).

"When most people hear the word 'inflammation' they think of the swelling and redness that accompanies an injury such as a sprained ankle. However, inflammation can also be systemic and caused not by injury but by lack of exercise and a poor diet. Systemic inflammation increases the risk of cancer, hypertension, heart disease, gastrointestinal problems, and many other health conditions. In fact, many anti-aging experts believe that inflammation is the greatest cause of premature aging, so preventing it is also vital for looking young. Increasing exercise is one key to decreasing systemic inflammation, and the other key is to consume a diet that does not promote inflammation." [2]

"Healthy lifestyle habits such as exercising regularly, not smoking, maintaining a healthy weight, and minimizing stress all help to reduce inflammation. But the most important factor in fighting inflammation is the food you eat every day. That's why all the experts, from diet doctor Barry Sears (The Zone) to alternative medicine guru Andrew Weil (Healthy Aging) recommend an anti-inflammatory diet for everything from weight loss to heart disease prevention."

"Inflammation as a major cause of disease is not new. It is at least a reasonable consideration that inflammation is involved with, if not the cause of, every other ill from which we suffer as a race. If that has not been true in the past, it is true today. No other cause of disease has a chance to take a foothold. Inflammation troubles have become so dominant that no other process may need to be considered. The cause of this inflammation is chemical toxicity." [4]

Many health experts suggest that you detoxify your body. In other words, rid your body of all the toxins that are either making certain organs work harder, or not work at all. When your organs aren't doing their job, your immune system may take over to rid your body of all the chemical toxicity.

One of the best ways of detoxify your body is by drinking TriVita's Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™. Nopalea™ is derived from the Nopal cactus, a desert superfruit that is loaded with betalains, powerful and formerly rare antioxidants. Betalains are known as a natural and very powerful anti-inflammatory nutrient, one that fights inflammation and thus, helps to relieve chronic pain that is caused by inflammation.

For thousands of years, the people of the Sonoran Desert have tapped into the power of its native healing plants. Now with Nopalea™, you can too.

Stop the pain and help fight inflammation with Nopalea™. Don't take a man-made drug, like Celebrex, to fight something that is not man-made, but rather caused naturally within your body. Don't risk damaging other parts of your body, but rather protect the most complex design at a cellular level.

Inflammation - 1014

Of all the pain causing disorders, joint pain is the most common problem people face as they grow older. A recent report estimates that 21% of the adult population is affected by some form of joint-related pain. And that number is expected to rise even higher as baby boomers age, so by 2030, almost 67 million people will suffer from joint problems.

What can be done to relieve pain within the joints?

First off, we need to understand joint pain and some causes of joint pain. Joints which bear the most weight are mostly affected, like the knees, hips and spine.

Only as an example, let's focus on the knee. If you suffer from knee pain, you're not alone. According to the Mayo Clinic website, "almost one in three Americans older than age 45 reports some type of knee pain, and it's a common reason that people visit their doctors or the emergency room." [1]

There is a lot of information on the Mayo Clinic website (see links below), and since I'm not a medical professional, I can only quote the information they have posted. With that said, here is some information regarding knee pain symptoms:

"A knee injury can affect any of the ligaments, tendons or fluid-filled sacs (bursae) that surround your knee joint as well as the bones, cartilage and ligaments that form the joint itself. Because of the knee's complexity, the number of structures involved, the amount of use it gets over a lifetime, and the range of injuries and diseases that can cause knee pain, the signs and symptoms of knee problems can vary widely." [2]

Joint pain, not just in the knee, can be due to a variety of reasons. Age is the primary cause of arthritis, but other risk factors are obesity, heredity, injury such as a fracture, or athletes who overuse their joints. These factors are often associated with osteoarthritis.

Joint pain can also be caused by inflammation. Many of you have probably heard the term inflammation many times before. When you joint becomes inflammed, it causes severe pain, and limits your joints range of motion. Inflamed joints, according to some health care professionals, are the main reason people experience so much pain. What is inflammation and how does it relate to joint pain? And how do we get pain relief from that inflammatiom?

Inflammation is a process in which the body's white blood cells and chemicals help protect us from infection and foreign substances such as bacteria and viruses.

"When inflammation occurs, chemicals from the body are released into the blood or affected tissues. This release of chemicals increases the blood flow to the area of injury or infection and may result in redness and warmth. Some of the chemicals cause a leak of fluid into the tissues, resulting in swelling. This process may stimulate nerves and cause pain." [3]

"Increased blood flow and release of these chemicals attract white blood cells to the sites of inflammation. The increased number of cells and inflammatory substances within the joint can cause irritation, wearing down of cartilage (cushions at the end of bones) and swelling of the joint lining (synovium)." [3]

Again, I'm not a doctor or medical professional, but it seems to me that if we fight inflammation, the cause of musch joint pain, we may not suffer from joint pain. So, in my opinion, to get pain relief that lasts, we should fight the source of that pain, and what better way to do that that with TriVita's Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™.

Nopalea's betalains and other anti-inflammatory ingredients work directly on the fluid surrounding your cells. There, they draw off the toxins and excess water to reduce inflammation and rebalance the cellular environment.

Nopalea will help you fight inflammation and give you the pain relief you may be looking for. If inflammation is the source of your pain, Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™ is the solution.

Inflammation - 1013

I always thought bone density tests were typically done on aging women, and I always thought calcium and vitamin d were the most important minerals needed to maintain healthy bones. In April of this year (2009), all that may have changed, as omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids may have taken their place in the battle of bone health.

"In adults, it is said vitamin D deficiency may precipitate or exacerbate osteopenia, osteoporosis, muscle weakness, fractures, common cancers, autoimmune diseases, infectious diseases and cardiovascular diseases. There is also some evidence that the vitamin may reduce the incidence of several types of cancer and type-1 diabetes." [1] Move over vitamin d, there's a new player in town!

Researchers from the University of California's School of Medicine in San Diego reported the results of their "investigating into the association between the ratio of dietary omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acids and bone mineral density (BMD). In their study, subjects were 1,532 men and women ranging in age from 45 to 90 who answered food intake questionnaires and underwent tests of their bone density." [2]

The result were astonishing, because they found that "the hip bones of people who consumed more omega-6 EFAs relative to omega-3 EFAs were less dense-hence more prone to fracture-while people who consumed more omega-3 EFAs relative to omega-6 EFAs had denser, stronger bones."

As the authors said, "A higher ratio of n-6 [omega-6] to n-3 [omega-3] fatty acids is associated with lower BMD at the hip in both sexes. These findings suggest that the relative amounts of dietary polyunsaturated fatty acids may play a vital role in preserving skeletal integrity in older age."

If you're looking to incorporate more omega-3-fatty acids into your diet, fish is your best bet. The purest choice fish include canned sardines or mackerel, wild Alaskan salmon and sablefish, and small, troll-caught tuna. However, if you're not a fish eater, TriVita's Omega Prime is a supplement that's high in omega-3 fatty acids.

TriVita's Omega Prime contains a premier and unique blend of four different types of the most highly regarded Essential Fatty Acids (EFA) oils – Fish, Flaxseed, Evening Primrose and Perilla Seed. It also uses only contaminant-free fish oil that has undergone a 10 stage distilling process.

As mentioned earlier, omega-3 supports our wellness in so many ways, which now includes healthy bones. It's one of the best nutrients to reduce runaway inflammation. This may be new to you, but runaway inflammation can lead to various serious health problems in the body involving the heart, arteries, lungs, joints and more.

Inflammation FAQ (pt3)

As we conclude, I think the last question on the most frequently asked questions list, regarding TriVita's Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™ is probably the most important of all. As mentioned in my previous two posts (where we covered the sugar, salt and iron content of Nopalea, and the compatibility of prescription medications) questions always arise when it comes to new health and wellness products. This is not unique to Nopalea!

Mr. Brazos Minshew, Chief Science Officer for TriVita, writes a Weekly Wellness Report. In the latest report, he wrote about the top three questions asked regarding Nopalea™. This is the third most frequently asked question:

How much Nopalea can I take in a day?

"The label recommends one to three ounces daily. This is based on minimum amounts in otherwise healthy people. However, the greater the level of your inflammation, the more anti-inflammatory strategies you will need. That makes sense, doesn't it? You wouldn't want to quench a forest fire with a single bucket of water!" [1]

Endobronchial inflammation, the main cause of asthma, is one such disease that is treated with more than one anti-inflammatory strategy. According to an article published by Pub Med, the writer mentions the many different strategies one can use to treat asthma. However, and this is just my opinion, if we can prevent the inflammation, by using a product like Nopalea, we would not have to treat the disease. As a matter of fact, the article even mentions prevention. "Patients must be educated to increase their understanding of the benefits of preventive rather than symptomatic forms of treatment for this (asthma) chronic disease." [2]

To me, preventative medicine makes more sense, and if Nopalea can do one-half of what has been scientifically proven, many individuals will all be able to live more healthy and active lives.

Mr. Minshew continues by writing, "one member was experiencing a flare-up of a rheumatoid disorder. She had taken many remedies - prescription and non-prescription - and had seen chiropractors, acupuncturists and massage therapists. She had been in an unbroken cycle of pain for 18 months. She took additional ounces daily and broke the cycle of inflammation and pain in about three weeks. She continues to take it daily with no known adverse effects. And she is pain free."

"Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a long-term disease that leads to inflammation of the joints and surrounding tissues. It can also affect other organs. The cause of RA is unknown. It is considered an autoimmune disease. The body's immune system normally fights off foreign substances, like viruses. But in an autoimmune disease, the immune system confuses healthy tissue for foreign substances. As a result, the body attacks itself." [3]

Again, if Nopalea™ fights inflammation (one of its claims), you may be able to prevent RA before it attacks.

According to TriVita and Mr. Minshew, "in the early pilot trials of Nopalea we gave our test subjects 16 ounces daily. Not only did they not experience any known negative effects, their blood work universally improved."

So, here is the conclusion to the three most frequently asked questions regarding TriVita's Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™:

"So many of the maladies we suffer from today are related to inflammation. Nopalea contains Betalains; Betalains quench inflammation. Testimonials from around North America report amazing improvement in well-being with Nopalea. Science from around the world details the astounding health benefits from Betalains found in the Nopal cactus. Both scientific and empirical reports tell us that Nopalea is safe and effective in promoting wellness. Enjoy Nopalea often. I promise: we won't run out!" [1]

If inflammation is the problem - Nopalea™ may be the solution.

Inflammation FAQ (pt2)

As I mentioned in my previous post, when it comes any new health and wellness product there are always questions about why, when and how to use it. Sometimes there are even concerns regarding the product, which leads to the second most frequently asked question about Sonoran Bloom Nopalea,™ TriVita's wonderful anti-inflammatory product.

Will Nopalea interfere with my medications?

According to TriVita's latest Weekly Wellness Report, Mr. Brazos Minshew, Chief Science Officer for TriVita, has this to say about the interference of Nopalea with prescription drug medications:

"Your physician and pharmacist know you best - ask them! We will say this: With over 200 papers published on the benefits of the Nopal cactus superfruit in human health, we have not found even one negative reaction or drug interaction. The only caution we discovered concerns the blood-thinner warfarin (Coumadin)." [1]

"Warfarin is an anticoagulant. It is used to decrease the clotting ability of the blood and to help prevent harmful clots from forming in the blood vessels. It is often used to prevent or treat deep venous thrombosis, a condition in which harmful blood clots form in the blood vessels of the legs. These blood clots can travel to the lungs and cause a condition called pulmonary embolism. Warfarin is also used to prevent or treat blood clots that are caused by certain heart conditions or open-heart surgery." [2]

If you take warfarin you need to speak with your pharmacist. Nopalea is a fruit juice. In rare instances, people on warfarin will be restricted from consuming fruit juices for a short time while their medication stabilizes. Only your physician and pharmacist know if you should be restricted from fruit juices at this time, so ask them before you take it. But TriVita has not found a single instance of drug interaction in the medical literature; Nopalea should be very safe, especially if you're drinking it to fight inflammation.

Here are some warnings about Warfarin. These are taken from the Mayo Clinic website:

"Warfarin, especially if taken incorrectly, increases your risk of dangerous bleeding. Warfarin also can interact badly with some foods, prescription medicines and over-the-counter supplements. If you accidentally cut yourself while taking warfarin, you may bleed heavily. You're more likely to have bleeding problems if you're older than 75 or take other medications that can further increase your bleeding risk." [3]

While I did not find anything regarding a dangerous interaction between warfarin and Nopalea, I'll have to take TriVita's word on what they have found. I did see where cranberry juice and cranberries can have an affect on it. "Consumption of cranberries or cranberry juice can affect the way warfarin works and can increase your risk of bleeding. While an occasional glass of cranberry juice is unlikely to injure you, you should avoid drinking it regularly." [3]

Before taking any health and wellness supplement, talk to your doctor, especially if you're taking prescription medications. If you're suffering from inflammation, ask your doctor if Nopalea can help.

Inflammation FAQ

As with any new health and wellness product, there are always questions about why, when and how to use it. The more popular the product, the more frequently the questions are repeated. This is the case with TriVita's newest product, Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™.

Within TriVita's latest Weekly Wellness Report, Mr. Brazos Minshew, Chief Science Officer for TriVita, attempts to answer some of the more common questions about Nopalea™, TriVita's wonderful anti-inflammatory product.

The most frequently asked questions are too important not to dedicate an individual post for each question. Because of the importance of these questions, I'll break them down into three separate articles and then try to find some research, or case studies, if applicable, to back up what Mr. Minshew has to say. I may also leave you with a thought provoking question, something for you to ponder.

How much sugar, salt and iron are in Nopalea?

"Nopalea™ contains NO ADDED SUGAR. It is naturally sweet. Yet it is still low-calorie and low-carbohydrate. Interestingly, the calories and carbohydrates will change from batch to batch depending on the harvest. Nopalea is "wildcrafted," meaning that Nopalea is not cultivated, and no fertilizers, pesticides or chemicals of any kind are ever used - ever! It is harvested from the Sonoran Desert by natives just as it has been for thousands of years. Since it is not cultivated, the concentration of sugars and minerals in the plant change depending on how much rain we have that year. The label will accurately reflect the concentration of constituents for that harvest." [1]

When it comes to products that have been wildcrafted, there are strict guidelines that must be followed. According to Wikipedia, "in the United States of America, wildcrafted plants are regulated by the Organic Food Production Act of 1990. Harvesters must designate the area they are harvesting and provide a three-year history of the area that shows no prohibited substances have been applied there. A plan for harvesting must show that the harvest will sustain the wild crop. No prohibited substances can be added by processors." [2]

So as you can see by these strict guidelines, you can be assured that Nopalea is truly an all natural inflammation fighting product.

Mr. Minshew says that in providing the proper nutritional information to the consumer, Nopalea™ does present a challenge, and he continues his discussion by saying, "Nopalea™ is the first product of its kind. Therefore, no "standards" data existed before we created them. So, label changes happen because we created the testing standards to accurately measure the rare and powerful constituents of Nopalea." [1]

As mentioned previously, Nopalea™ comes from the nopal cactus that is found in the Sonoran Desert, located in the southwestern United States, and the northwestern parts of Mexico. Some historians have said that the ancient Mexican cultures, living in the high mountain volcanic regions, originally adopted the Nopal prickly pear cactus as a healing food, for fighting inflammation, and treasured this high mountain variety, relegating Nopal cactus as the supreme healing plant and food among its kings and warriors.

I'm not sure if that statement is correct, but if you search Google for Sonoran Bloom Nopalea, this is the type of information you will find, and nothing about other products created using the nopal cactus. As we all know, if there was another product, you would find it on the web by searching Google. So judge for your self! Is Nopalea™ a one of a kind product, and can it help fight inflammation?

Fight Inflammation with Nopalea

Is cholesterol the cause of heart attacks and strokes, or is it getting falsely blamed? Is there some underlying cause that should be targeted, as the real problem, instead?

First let's take a look at cholesterol:

Cholesterol is a soft, waxy substance found among the lipids (fats) in the bloodstream and in all your body's cells. It's an important part of a healthy body because it's used to form cell membranes, some hormones and is needed for other functions. [1]

Cholesterol also aids in the manufacture of bile (which helps digest fats), and is also important for the metabolism of fat soluble vitamins, including vitamins A, D, E and K. It is the major precursor for the synthesis of vitamin D and of the various steroid hormones (which include cortisol and aldosterone in the adrenal glands, and the sex hormones progesterone, the various estrogens, testosterone, and derivatives ). [2]

According to some experts, cholesterol may be getting a bad rap, and is wrongly accused as the cause of heart attacks and strokes. Upon inspection of the arteries of someone at risk for a heart attack, levels of cholesterol and plaque build up are very high. The cholesterol, being transported to tissues, is actually part of an inflammatory response going to repair damage.

On it's journey, it will only lodge itself onto the artery, and cause plaque, if the artery has become damaged. In essence, it's inflammation in the artery that causes this damage. In fact, many experts agree that it's the coronary disease that causes heart attacks, which is now considered to be caused mostly from chronic inflammation.

The causes of inflammation and its effects on the human body is an ongoing process. In a recent newsmax.com article by Dr. Blaylock, he says that "the latest studies show that inflammation is an independent risk factor for heart disease that is much stronger than any measure of cholesterol."

If it is true that inflammation is the actually cause, and cholesterol is getting blamed for doing it's job (sound all too familiar), shouldn't we be fighting the battle at the root, and fight against inflammation?

Every day, we're exposed to toxins in our air, water and food-and even toxins created by our own bodies. It's these toxins that cause inflammation. So if we really want to get to the proper level, even before inflammation has a chance to take affect, we need protect our bodies against these toxins. So how do we do that? With TriVita's Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™.

TriVita's Nopalea™ (made from the Nopal cactus) specifically targets signs of inflammation in your body and reduces them quickly.[1] Its betalains and other anti-inflammatory ingredients work directly on the fluid surrounding your cells. There, they draw off the toxins and excess water to reduce inflammation and rebalance the cellular environment.

If it's true what Hippocrates says, "all disease is one", and if the majority of diseases are in some way related to inflammation and toxins, doesn't it make sense to try TriVita's Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™, which has the powerful antioxidant betalains.

Most new startups have a lot of excitement at first and then start to settle down. It's no different with Web Prosperity, the self proclaimed, "the most powerful, income-generating Internet Business opportunity anyone has ever seen in the history of this industry!"

Even something as exciting as Web Prosperity has to come down to reality. It seems like the hype surrounding this business opportunity has died to a screeching halt. Their Alexa rating is way down form where it was during prelaunch, and it seems like some of the products features are sub-par.

Web Prosperity has even gone to a "free" sign up, trying to get new members. According to one web site, "You'll be thrilled to know that your opportunity to market and promote Web Prosperity has just grown ten fold!"

"We are now introducing a third membership level, called Web Prosperity Affiliate which is completely FREE to join, no strings attached!"

I don't know if the Web Prosperity affiliate program that is being offered will be enough to sustain this business opportunity. Most people want quality products and services that will help the affiliates promote so they can make money. However, as I mentioned before, there products seem to be sub-par.

You can watch this video to see a review of Web Prosperity by one unimpressed user. Go here to watch the video http://www.blinkx.com/video/web-prosperity-contact-system-is-a-dud/f8qfP3XHg7zCMOJw7UqdLw.

If you're looking to prosper on the web, there is no get-rich-quick solution. Companies with all the hype and "get-rich-quick" advertisements usually fail in a very short period. To build prosperity on the web, it takes hard work, dedication, and time. You cannot get rich overnight. So, if web prosperity is what you're looking for, it's time to roll up your sleeves and go to work, with a web prosperity system that works.

I have mentioned several times, and so have other people, that we believe it takes time to build a successful online business. That's not how Web Prosperity is being promoting. Here's a quote from a web site that is reviews of Web Prosperity, http://web-prosperity-review.net:

"Web prosperity was pitched by David Darcangelo as being the best of the best of systems on Google for promoting and getting rich in a home business. Come on guys. Do you really know anyone that has gotten rich online? Do you honestly believe that statements like that are real. Usually web prosperity turns into a sour note to newbie marketer. They jump on these deals like lambs to the slaughter, only to find out later that oops…they made yet another mistake."

It's so true, most of the true online business builders struggle each and every day to make a living. It's hard work! making money doesn't happen by sitting around and waiting for someone to come to your web site. You have to work at it! Remember the old saying, there is no free lunch? It's true!

If you want to prosper on the web, you have to work at it. You have to find your niche, and build spider web of links to your site. Your site not only has to show up close to the top of Google, but it has to show up for keywords that are being searched.

I've never said it was easy, or you can get rich quick. Believe me when I say it takes time and hard work. I've been at it since March 2000, and I'm still not rich, but I am learning, and I am having fun.

Having the proper system will help produce results in a shorter period of time, but there is no get rich quick system. Slow and steady is what it's all about. My web prosperity system is just that, a slow and steady system. It produces results!

The Home Business Marketing Group, a combination of the perfect business with the best Web Prosperity System.

Web Prosperity System | 24

There's a lot of trash talk about Web Prosperity going on at review-webprosperity.com (http://review-webprosperity.com/12/web-prosperity-hype/#comment-122). People are claiming the Simon Grabowski, owner of Implix, is part of the opportunity. His company, allegedly, is the one that sold the autoresponder to Web Prosperity.

Is there a crime in being involved with a business opportunity? I don't think so! Well then, what's all the fuss about?

I guess, at least from the comments on review-webprosperity.com, Mr. Grabowski, has been promoting Web Prosperity through his web prosperity site and also through YouTube.com. Then when all the posts about him being involved in Web Prosperity started to show up, he quickly, or someone that controls those sites, took his information down.

Then, from what I gather, he put his information back up. So, I guess you can be the judge if Simon Grabowski has something more to gain, then just the few thousand dollars he received from Web Propserity, for a license to his GetResponse autoresponder.

Here's one of the quotes from review-webprosperity.com:

Then Mr. Grabowski made a statement that denied any involvement in Web prosperity:

"Simon Grabowski Says:

Admin,

I am not promoting WP and I'm *not* at the top of WP's tree (or any other MLM company's for that matter), and I don't own a position there.

And made it very clear you don't own a position nor are promoting it.'

But it appears that in fact you were promoting it and apparently are at the top of the matrix. Your YouTube account says:
'JoinWebProsperity
Joined: January 02, 2009

So what difference does it make? NONE! I guess all anyone is looking for is the truth, and if Grabowski can't tell the truth about something that is supposed to be legal and ethical, then is the the type of person you want to do business with? I guess you will have to be the judge.

Web Prosperity System | 22

My Web Prosperity System, Veretekk, is proven and has withstood the test of time. It's not only the most powerful SEO system, but it's also a tremendous lead generating system; the two things that are needed to prosper on the web.

With that said, I continue to be bombarded with emails regarding "the most powerful, income-generating Internet Business opportunity anyone has ever seen in the history of this industry!" Now that's not my statement, but actually a statement from an email I recently received (see below).

"Do you want to be in control of your financial future? Are you 'hungry' and willing to work to achieve wealth, freedom and security for yourself and your loved ones? Or do you look for any excuse NOT to succeed? I'm being direct with you because the program we are about to present is the most powerful, income-generating Internet Business opportunity anyone has ever seen in the history of this industry!

Web Prosperity will change lives, inspire leadership, and create wealth and freedom for thousands around the globe. But we cannot make up your mind for you. We cannot give you drive, ambition, and confidence. What we can give you are the FACTS."

Either Web Prosperity is what is staed wihtin this email, or it's nothing but a BIG lie. I suggest that if you're looking to get involved with Web Prosperity, you do your due-diligence and check out the man behind the business, and some of the "high profile" networkers promoting this opportunity. You may not like what you find!

If you want to prosper on the web, start small, and start with something without all the hype. Prosperity comes to those who work hard and persevere, not because they join the so called, "most powerful, income-generating Internet Business opportunity anyone has ever seen in the history of this industry!"

My research into Web Prosperity continues at scam.com where I've found numerous posts regarding Web Prosperity and its founder, David D'arcangelo. It seem that he is up to his old tricks, moving to a new company/opportunity. From what I've found so far, D'arcangelo has been involved with several opportunities, all of which have failed.

Below is a quote taken from the scams.com web site:

"There is no doubt that David D'arcangelo was involved with Tony Robbins and the ill fated Financial Destiny Group Incorporated. There is no denying David D'Ardangelo's involvement and leadership with Entreport and AMS Health Services, however what David D'Arcangelo doesn't tell you is that each time he touches something it falls apart. Will it be any different with Web Prosperity?

D'arcangelo's past business experiences:

• Financial Destiny Group Incorporated - short lived failure.
• Entreport another flop
• AMS Health Services's tock fell under the direction of David D'Arcangelo fell 70%, resulting in his being asked to resign under duress.

Now here comes David D'Arcangelo again riding the same old tired pale horse. (Doesn't death always rides a pale horse?)

This time however King D'arcangelo is swathed in a plain brown wrapper knock off of the Get Response program (Web Prosperity) for which he expects you to pay 3x what it would cost you to use the real thing.

Perhaps someone needs to tell David D'Arcangelo that the King has no clothes."

You can read the complete list of posts at http://www.scam.com/showthread.php?t=74066.

Missing form the list of D'arcangelo's past experiences is GBG's 10-in-one-vitamins, where he is the company spokesperson. I'm not sure what his involvement is at the present time, but you can still see his videos by going to the GBG's 10-in-1-vitamins web site, http://www.getrichwithvitamins.com/.

I guess only time will tell if this is "a legit business opportunity", but from what I have read, it's more of an illegal pyramid scheme. Web Prosperity is one opportunity that I would NOT recommend you get involved with, until it has been cleared by the authorities.

Web Prosperity cannot be achieved by spamming every email address you find. You can only prosper on the web with honest hard work, and that includes only promoting your pruducts, services and/or opportunity to individuals that have opted in, or have signed up to receive information from you.

I receive hundreds of emails regarding business opportunities, but GDI seems to be leading the race. Here is an excerpt from one such email, "...we picked a winning horse, called GDI. Why? because it is only ten bucks a month and it is global. We also found a guaranteed way to build it, and that is with phone broadcasting. YOU will soon hear the world talking about GDI, it is financial salvation for the masses around the planet."

"It's only ten bucks a month and it's global", is that a reason for signng up with GDI, or any business for that matter? Most businesses are global now-a-days, aren't we entrenched in a global economy? Can web prosperity come from sending out SPAM emails to people you don't even know? I don't think so!

How about an email claiming that you won the lottery? Now that's what I was hoping for!

"Your e-mail was attached to ticket number 1110008342, serial number 6028808. This batch draws the lucky numbers as follows 4-13-7-37-1 bonus number 20, which consequently won the lottery in the First category. You hereby have been approved a lump sum of GBP ?1,000,000.00(ONE MILLION GREAT BRITISH POUNDS).To file for your claim,Please contact our Fiduciary Agent for Validation:"

Yeah, as soon as I give them my information, I can be scammed. Now that makes me feel all warm and cozy, and that was "FROM THE DESK OF THE MANAGER NOKIA N'SERIES PROMOTION" I wonder if Nokia knows about their lottery?

Here's another lottery I won: "The European gaming Million cyber lotto draws was conducted from an exclusive list of 21,000 e-mail addresses of individual and corporate bodies picked by an advanced automated random computer search from the internet,You have therefore been approved to claim a total sum of 550,000 (Five Hundred And Fifty Thousand Euros)."

Then there's always a push-button lead generating system, a diploma in 30 days or less, Viagara - so I can please my woman, a bank that wants to give me money, a tax return from the IRS, and just about anything else you can think of. If you don't find what you're looking for, you can sign up for the ALL Solutions Network (allsolutionsnetwork.com). Their site is loaded with "everything." I just can't seem to get past the mass confusion on the site. YIKES!

If you're looking to prosper on the web, there is no get-rich-quick solution. It takes hard work, dedication, and time. You cannot get rich overnight. So, if web prosperity is what you're looking for, it's time to roll up your sleeves and go to work, with a web prosperity system that works.

Web Prosperity System | 118

Let's take a closer look at one of the principles of Web Prosperity. David D'Arcangelo, founder of Web Prosperity, has had many ventures in the past. Let's take a look at one of his past performances to see if he's the man that can lead a network marketing company, or is he, what some are calling, a "scammer."

D'Arcangelo was named president of AMS Health Sciences in November 2002. He joined AMS after serving as chairman of Entreport, an online training company for real estate agents and franchisors. From 1994 to 1999, D'Arcangelo was president of the D'Arcangelo Cos., a business marketing and training consulting firm.

According to a 10-Q statement filed Friday by AMS, D'Arcangelo signed a one-year contract in November that included a base annual salary of $230,000. The contract included provisions for graduated severance payments of up to 12 months of base pay.

AMS reported a net loss of $1.3 million, or 19 cents per share, for the first quarter. Sales fell 10.1 percent to $4 million from $4.5 million a year earlier.

AMS reported a net loss of $6.3 million, or 90 cents per share, for 2004. The net loss for the year included a tax valuation write- off of $3.2 million. Sales fell 1.6 percent to $18.2 million from $18.5 million in 2003.

D'Arcangelo masterminded a "giveaway program" for Prime One and AMS-100. AMS Health Sciences lost millions of dollars due to the marketing of this "giveaway program". Due to the previously mentioned negligent actions of Mr. D'Arcangelo, this caused the stock price of AMS Health Sciences to plummet, thus the Board of Directors requested the resignation of Mr. D'Arcangelo.

In May of 2005, David D'Arcangelo resigned as president of AMS Health Sciences.

D'Arcangelo, as you can see by his previous track record, may not be the person to lead a network marketing company like Web Prosperity. Is he someone that you wnat to get involved with? Is his reputation as a company leader rock solid? Can Web Prosperity survive with this type of leadership? Only time will tell!

Web Prosperity System | 113

Looking into the new WebProsperity business opportunity, of which I have been inundated with emails and skypes, I've found some interesting information. Not only does it seem that the compensation plan is some illegal pyramid scheme, but from what I've read, the man behind this operation has failed in many other business adventure.

My experience, as an Internet Marketing Advisor, has taught me to always check out the people behind the "DEAL." I advise my clients to do the same thing. Never sign up for a program without first checking out the products and services, and secondly, checking out the men or women behind the operation.

I found this post on scam.com about WebProsperity and it's founder:

D'Arcangelo is a walking disaster, not a guru. And in this case he's apparently partnered with Phil Miranda who is under investigation for the People's Program pyramid scheme.

Speaking of which, Web Prosperity itself looks like a pyramid scheme, with the number of levels depending on how much the sucker pays to join.

The link to the aforementioned post is, http://scam.com/showpost.php?p=671053&postcount=2.

It's this type of press that makes you wonder what WebProsperity is all about. Is it a true business opportunity, as one of the emails I've received suggests, or is it some type of ponzi scheme as many online posts claim? I don't have enough information on WebProsperity, but with each click of the mouse I learn a little bit more about this hyped-up company.

I found another article talking about WebProsperity's found, David D'arcangelo, and here is what was written:

Would I want to get involved with another company that is associated with Mr. D'Arcangelo? To be very direct, I will say that I'd rather be put into a room with 20 lions and stick my head into each of their mouths - one by one. This would be putting it very kindly!

This is an excerpt from a article on the mlmteam.com blog talking about D'arcangelo and his previous dealings with AMS Health Sciences and GBG 10-in-1 Liquid, and his start-up, WebProsperity.

The Internet is loaded with information. If your looking to sign up with an mlm company make sure you search Google. The extra time up front will say you heartaches in the long run.

Our kidneys are delicate and easily damaged by dehydration with too much protein, sugar, toxic metals like mercury and toxins like aspirin. Even temperature extremes like heat can affect them.

Our liver neutralizes uric acid with enzymes, and those same enzymes also detoxify many other poisons.

A Little Known Beauty Secret Found in Nopal Fruit

In the dry desert landscape there grows a plant with sharp needles, that can appear to be as unfriendly as the rattlesnakes, and lizards that dwell amongst it. Yet this amazing cactus plant is host to a most beautiful flower, adding color to this desolate land. It is the base of this pleasing flower that holds a key to helping our skin stay younger.

The lovely pinkish color is the precursor to a prestigious class of nutrients called "Betalains", as the Betalains give the fruit it's appealing color. These impressive nutrients are bioflavonids which are part of the Quercetin household. Bioflavonoids are a vitamin like substance that works in alliance with antioxidants such as Vitamin C. These colleagues work together to help our bodies make collagen, which makes our skin soft and supple, and helps strengthen our blood vessels, so we don't bruise so easily.

As we age and lose collagen, the structural protein that helps provide healthy elasticity, our skin thins, and as a result men and women fight to keep a youthful appearance from such predators as:

Crow's Feet - The outer corner of the eyes and upper and lower eyelids can become saggy and baggy as collagen levels lessen. Tear troughs (deep hollows under the eye sockets) can also form.

Drooping Brows - Depleting collagen can cause your eyebrows to droop, resulting in a hooded look over the eyelids.

Nasolabial Folds - Lack of collagen increases the appearance of the lines that run from the nose to the corners of the mouth.

Jowls- Jowls are due to excess skin, which occurs from a decrease in collagen, elastin and volume, drawing attention to unrefined contours.

Thin lips - Lost collagen leads to the development of lip lines and a loss of volume. Just to name a few.

In a society that spends billions with a "B" to stay youthful, with expensive cosmetic surgery, paying premium prices for fancy creams and lotions, countless visits to the dermatologists for botox injections, and other skin procedures, all in pursuit of beauty, could there be some help in the battle?

We all have heard people talk about how someone is beautiful on the inside. This is important, from the view point that good health is directly reflected on the outside of our bodies. Hence another saying "you are what you eat". In the ongoing battle for youthfulness, the fight should begin from within by taking good care of you. Start by eating a balance diet, drink lots of water, get plenty of sleep, and don't forget to take your Betalins in order to help make collagen, which in turns helps your skin look more vigorous and fresh.

One more piece of news for you regarding Betalins, it can also help reduce inflammation which Time Magazine deemed "The Silent Killer", sounds like a win, win to me...I take my Betalins, do you?

If you would like to drink in these powerful healing nutrients, the best source I have found is in a product called Sonoran Bloom Nopalea. Like to try a FREE sample of this awesome product through The Sonoran Bloom Nopalea Free Gift of Health? Simply fill out the Free Gift of Health form, indicate you would like to try Sonoran Bloom Nopalea! Soon you too can drink in the wellness!

Sonoran Bloom and Inflammation

Inflammation is a process by which the body's white blood cells and chemicals protect us from infection and foreign substances such as bacteria and viruses.

In some diseases, however, the body's defense system (immune system) inappropriately triggers an inflammatory response when there are no foreign substances to fight off. In these diseases, called auto immune diseases, the body's normally protective immune system causes damage to its own tissues. The body responds as if normal tissues are infected or somehow abnormal. What diseases are associated with inflammation?

Some, but not all, types of arthritis are the result of misdirected inflammation. Arthritis is a general term that describes inflammation in joints. Some types of arthritis associated with inflammation include:

Rheumatoid arthritis
Shoulder tendinitis or bursitis
Gouty arthritis
Polymyalgia rheumatica

Other painful conditions of the joints and musculoskeletal system that are not associated with inflammation include osteoarthritis, fibromyalgia, muscular low back pain and muscular neck pain.

What are the symptoms of inflammation?

Inflammation is characterized by:

Redness Swollen joint that is warm to touch
Joint pain
Joint stiffness
Loss of joint function

Often, only a few of these symptoms are present.

Inflammation may also be associated with general "flu-like" symptoms including:

Fever
Chills
Fatigue/loss of energy
Headaches
Loss of appetite
Muscle stiffness

So what can you do about inflammation appropriately called "The Silent Killer" and for good reason as mentioned above. One thing you can do as a proactive approach to reducing inflammation is to try the juice of the Nopal cactus fruit which contains Betalains. Betalaines are a rare and potent class of antioxidants that flourish in the Nopal cactus fruit. Nopalea harnesses the power of this desert superfruit and its betalains to bring you scientifically proven health benefits.

Betalains are the pigments that give the Nopal cactus fruit its vibrant pink color. But that's just the beginning. They're also natural antioxidants-and they're only found in a few of the world's plants.

The Nopal fruit isn't just included in this small group of special plants, it actually leads the group by containing one of the highest amounts of betalains in all of nature.

So how can you harness the power of this desert superfruit?

When you drink Sonoran Bloom Nopalea, you take these betalains into your system, where they begin to restore your vitality on a cellular level. By helping the body reduce the toxins surrounding your cells and enabling essential nutrients to reach each cell, the betalains in Sonoran Bloom Nopalea can reduce the inflammation in your body that leads to disease.

The Silent Killer Called Inflammation

According to a recent article in Time magazine there is a potential killer that lies within, and its called inflammation. Inflammation is a condition that occurs when the body's natural immune response goes awry. It can go undetected for years, continually assaulting the brain, heart and immune system.

Inflammation is a process by which the body’s white blood cells and chemicals protect us from infection and foreign substances such as bacteria and viruses. When inflammation occurs normally, chemicals from the body’s white blood cells are released to protect us from foreign substances. Sometimes, however, the white blood cells and their inflammatory chemicals cause damage to the body’s tissues.

In some diseases, however, the body’s defense system (immune system) inappropriately triggers an inflammatory response when there are no foreign substances to fight off. In these diseases, called auto immune diseases, the body’s normally protective immune system causes damage to its own tissues. The body responds as if normal tissues are infected or somehow abnormal.

What can YOU do to slow down this "Silent Killer"

Betalains are a rare and potent class of antioxidants that flourish in the Nopal cactus fruit. Nopalea harnesses the power of this desert superfruit and its betalains to bring you scientifically proven health benefits.

Sonoran Bloom Nopalea - Nopal Cactus Super Fruit

NOPAL - An Abundant Nutritional Reservoir! And boy is that an understatement. Nopal cactus fruit defends your body against dangerous toxins that threaten cellular health, lead to inflammation and trigger a whole host of diseases.

So how did this new super fruit get it's start?

History:

Nopal is a large cactus with a woody trunk and large top, many oblong joints, small, yellow barbed spines, bright yellow flowers and red fruit with a juicy, white, sweet flesh and numerous black seeds. It is said to be a native of Mexico, where it is considered the symbol of identity of the Mexican people and is even included on the Mexican flag, depicting a Mexican golden eagle perched upon the Opuntia cactus, devouring a snake.

About twenty thousand years ago, Opuntia (or Nopal) began to develop as a food, and the plant's development was said to enable human settlement and cultural development in many parts of the arid lands, where it was considered the lifeblood of those ancient cultures, particularly in times of drought.

Approximately 5000 to 7000 B. C., prehistoric indigenous groups began the cultivation of a series of native plants, including beans, opuntia, peppers and agave, etc., and in Pre-Columbian times, Nopal was considered an important staple food (for both humans and livestock), a beverage, a medicine, a source of dye and was included in religious and magical rites. During the Spanish Colonial Period, Nopal gained further importance as forage when cattle was introduced to the semiarid areas and there was a consequent depletion of grasslands. Its beneficial uses as a medicine and beverage were also gaining in reputation.

In the De la Cruz-Badiano Codex of 1552, it was noted that Nopal treated several ailments and was used to cure burns and soothe wounds, and Friar Motolinia said, "these Indians, from a land so sterile that they lack water, drink the juice of these leaves of nopal." Nopal received its botanical genus name, Opuntia, from Tournefot, who thought the plant was similar to a thorny plant that grew in the town of Opus, in Greece.

After the Spanish conquest, Nopal spread from Mexico to practically all the Americas (from Canada to Patagonia, in Argentina) and may now be found in tropical and arid regions throughout the world, including the southwestern United States. It grows in Israel, where the Prickly Pear is called tzabar (Hebrew:) and it is the origin of the slang term, Sabra, meaning a native-born Israeli Jew.

Some of the constituents in Nopal include water, fat, mucopolysaccharide soluble fibers, carbohydrate, protein, saponins, glycosides, a flavonoid (quercetin), minerals and large amounts of B1, B6, niacin, riboflavin and pantothenic acid.

So there you go...a bit of history behind the Nopal cactus and it's wondrous super fruit the basis of TriVita's Sonoran Bloom Nopalea.

If you too wish to experience the Nopal Super Fruit and it's wondrous health benefits, you don't have to go out to the desert and find a Nopal cactus, all you need to do is visit this site for more information on TriVita's Sonoran Bloom Nopalea!

Sonoran Bloom Nopalea

The main ingredient of TriVita's Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™ is the nopal cactus. Why? Because studies show that the nopal (the prickly pear cactus) is a valuable health supporting nutrient. The nopal helps support immune, glandular, nervous, circulatory, respiratory and digestive systems.

Below is additional information on the real value of the nopal, and why it has been chosen to be the main ingredient in Nopalea™. Even though this information has not been verified by the FDA, many independent scientific studies have compiled the follow information.

The nopal's 18 amino acids, provide you with more energy & reduce fatigue by helping the body to lower blood sugar. The nopal strengthens the liver & pancreas thereby increasing sensitivity to insulin which stimulates the movement of glucose from the blood into body cells where it is used as energy. It also slows the digestion of carbohydrates which in turn slows insulin production.

The nopal is high in nutrients that help to strengthen the liver and the pancreas. The health of these two organs is vitally important for the proper conversion of carbohydrate sugars into stored glycogen, which is then useable as energy by the body. The production of insulin and the sensitivity of body cells to insulin is necessary to move glucose from the blood stream into body cells where it is used as energy. The nopal helps to detoxify and support the functions of the liver and pancreas, while improving body cell response to insulin stimulation.

The active ingredients found in Nopal aid in preventing the digestive system from absorbing excess dietary fat and carbohydrate sugars, thereby maintaining proper blood sugar balance and helping to control obesity. Nopal contains high levels of both soluble and insoluble dietary fibers. Soluble fibers present in Nopal include mucilages, pectin, gums and some hemicellulose. Insoluble fibers include cellulose, lignan and remaining hemicellulose. Nopal is a gentle alternative to psyllium 9a well-known fiber supplement taken for colon cleansing) for those with a sensitivity or allergy to psyllium.

Phytochemicals are powerful allies for the body's immune system, by allowing the body defend itself against pathogens. Recent studies have found that among the phytochemicals found in the nopal are the types that inhibit cancerous cell growth and may even help prevent cancer from developing. Animal studies confirm this, showing that dosages of juice from the nopal increase immune system efficiency in controlling tumor growth, Epstein-Barr virus and suppressed immune response.

The nopal acts in several ways that have been found to reduce the risk of heart disease. First, the fiber found in the nopal acts to absorb and excrete cholesterol in the digestive system. Second, the amino acids, fiber and B3 (niacin) found in the nopal prevents excess sugar conversions into fats, while reducing triglyceride and LDL cholesterol levels, by metabolizing fat and fatty acids and eliminating excess bile acids which eventually convert into cholesterol. Third, the B3 (niacin) in the nopal acts to convert LDL(bad) cholesterol to HDL (good) forms of cholesterol.

Further studies suggest that the amino acids and fiber, together with the anti-oxidant effect of the vitamin C and vitamin A (B-carotene) found in the nopal, aid in preventing blood vessel wall damage and the formation of fatty plaques in the arteries (arteriosclerosis).

The nopal helps prevent diabetic Neuropathy (nerve damage) and aids in the balancing and calming of the nervous system, which creates a sense of well being and benefits the body's overall function.

The nopal is a natural source of 18 Amino acids, 8 of which must be ingested as food. Vitamins A, E, and C act as antioxidants. Vitamin B (niacin) lowers cholesterol. Vitamin B12 protect against atherosclerosis. Vitamin E helps prevent blood clots and the formation of fatty plaques on the walls of the arteries and helps counteract nerve damage associated with adult-onset diabetes. Folic acid reduces risk the of stroke and together with B12 help prevent cells from becoming malignant. The nopal is an excellent source of these important vitamins in a natural form.

I know your probably thinking that all these fantastic attributes surrounding the nopal cactus seem to good to be true. I'd be skeptical also if I read this. That's why I suggest you go to Google and do a search for the nopal cactus, and/or Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™. I'm sure you will find that the nopal cactus is one true natural fruit that delivers results. However, it's not a fruit that is typically sold in stores.

Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™ delivers results, just like the nopal cactus. To learn more about TriVita and Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™, click on the previous links.

Sonoran Bloom Nopalea - 1119

Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™ has not been on the market that long. However, because of the tremendous healing powers, and anti-inflammatory results it has been providing to regular users, TriVita has taken it one step further. They have developed a true multi-nutritional supplement that's based on the same ingredient of Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™, betalains.

As many of you already know, betalains are found in the fruit of the Nopal cactus. Some additional information for those of you that have not heard of betalains, the pigment that gives the Nopal cactus fruit its vibrant pink color; they are natural antioxidants - and they're only found in a few of the world's plants.

The Nopal fruit isn't just included in this small group of special plants, it actually leads the group by containing one of the highest amounts of betalains in all of nature.

When you drink Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™, you take these betalains into your system, where they begin to restore your vitality on a cellular level. By helping the body reduce the toxins surrounding your cells and enabling essential nutrients to reach each cell, the betalains in Nopalea can reduce the inflammation, and supply natural pain relief, in your body that leads to disease.

Now, when we transition this cellular protection into a daily nutritional supplement, you can have the best of both worlds when it comes to keeping your body healthy. Well, that's exactly what TriVita has done.

TriVita's newest product is called Wellavoh™ (wel-lah vo-h). It is derived from the Native American language and means "Wellness Harvest." As mentioned previously, Wellavoh™ is rooted in the healing plants of the Sonoran Desert and brings native traditions and ancient wisdom from the Nopal cactus and other Sonoran botanicals to you in its purest and freshest form.

Wellavoh™ gives you an opportunity to feed your body the nutrients it desires and lacks, every day, to avoid any gaps in nutrition. It provides you with hard-to-find healthful nutrients that go beyond an ordinary daily multi-vitamin. Wellavoh™ is a multi-nutrient complex that offers complete nutrition both day and night.

Wellavoh™ is scientifically designed and uniquely formulated (the same as Sonoran Bloom Nopalea) for both men and women, to offer incredible features and benefits:

• The men's formula supports optimal prostate, cholesterol and blood sugar health
• The women's formula supports optimal bone, skin, hormone and breast health.
• Specific AM and PM formulas to provide you with energy and vitality during the day, and rest and rejuvenation during the night.
• Four exclusive blends with rare and powerful nutrients from herbs, plants, fruits, oils and more
• Six essential nutrient classes to make a complete multi-nutrient complex.
• Easy-to-swallow, soft-gel capsules for improved absorption and maximum benefit
• Individually packaged for on-the-go use.

Many people take a daily multi-vitamin in order to make up for nutrient deficiencies. But this typically falls short. That's because most daily multi-vitamins are not of the highest quality and standards. For example, they often lack the broad spectrum of nutrient classes your body needs. Or, their ingredients are made from synthetic substances, which are not easily absorbed by your body. Far too many multi-vitamins are formulated as "one type fits all," with ingredients that aren't gender specific. That's not the case with Wellavoh.

There are many more benefits to taking a multi-nutritional supplement rather than a multiple vitamin supplement, just a few are listed above. To learn more about Wellavoh™, Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™, and all the TriVita products, go to the TriVita Products page.

Sonoran Bloom Nopalea - 112

I've been writing about inflammation, its causes, and how to fight it. My articles typically involve sharing information I found when doing searches on Google. I receive weekly health and wellness newsletters that contain important information regarding your health. As part of my passion for healthier lifestyles, I like to share that information with you.

There has never been a more important newsletter than the one I received this past weekend. It's by TriVita, and is written by Brazos Minshew, TriVita's Chief Science Officer. The article is called Important Health News - Protect Yourself from the Flu. As we all know, unless you've been living under a rock, the H1N1 flu virus is attacking Americans at an alarming rate.

Is there a way to protect your self from the H1N1 virus? According to Mr. Minshew, when it comes to fighting the flu we need to focus on three pathways, transmission, infection, and inflammation. In his article, he explains his theory. However, I'd like to focus on the third pathway, inflammation. Below is an excerpt form his article. To read the complete article, copy and paste the link at the bottom of this article into your web browser.

Inflammation

We will begin at the ending: Inflammation from the immune system that incapacitates - even kills - people when they have the flu. MOST IMPORTANT: The flu kills people not by transmission or by infection, but by an inflammatory immune system response called the "cytokine storm."

Our immune system is designed to neutralize and excrete any non-self protein it finds. That includes the influenza virus. The size of the immune response needs to be equivalent to the strength of the invader.

Think of this as a building on fire: small fires are extinguished by local fire fighters. Some fires are so big that fire fighters from other departments have to be called in to help. So, fires are designated as "one-alarm,""two-alarm,""three-alarm,"and so on. At a certain point, our immune system pulls all of the alarms and immune system fractions from all over our body rush to put out the fire, so to speak. However, this is a case of fighting fire with fire. Cytokines are inflammatory. They kill viruses and bacteria by creating inflammation.

The cytokine storm is responsible for all of the symptoms we feel: fever, body aches, nausea, diarrhea, etc. It is also responsible for filling the lungs with mucous (pneumonia/pneumonitis) which is often the fatal trigger in influenza, SARS, Hanta virus, bubonic plague, etc.

To survive we must modulate the cytokine storm so that it does its job but doesn't overwork and kill us. We make it work smarter, not harder. So we don't use Vitamin C or Echinacea or anything that "boosts"the immune system. We use immune system modulators so we get exactly the right response. Quercetin (Betalains in Sonoran Bloom Nopalea are quercetin bioflavonoids), green tea polyphenols (found in Energy Now!) and ginseng (Panax and Eleutherococcus found in Adaptogen 10 Plus) all balance the immune system and decrease the cytokine storm.

I know this may sound somewhat like an advertisement for TriVita products, well yes, and no. In my opinion, it's a way to protect yourself from the H1N1 virus. I believe we need help prevent the spreading of this terrible virus, and one way to do is is to protect yourself from getting it.

Mr. Minshew mentioned Sonoran Bloom Nopalea is his article. Nopalea helps to fight inflammation naturally, through betalains, a very effective anti-inflammatory fighter which is found in the Nopal cactus.

I'm always into sharing information I find and/or receive regarding our health. Today I'd like to share an article I received regarding inflammation and its affect on the development of Alzheimer's disease. I'm including the article in its entirety to prevent any misinterpretation.

The article is written on October 22, 2009 by Patrycja Podrazik for Health Resources News. If you suffer from any form of inflammation or you know someone suffering from Alzheimer's disease, I highly suggest that you read this article.

A recent study has shed light on inflammatory mechanisms that may contribute to the development of Alzheimer’s disease, an incurable neurodegenerative condition.

Research by Dr. William A. Banks, professor of geriatrics and pharmacological and physiological science at Saint Louis University School of Medicine, suggests inflammation causes a blood-brain barrier transporter known as LRP to malfunction.

The blood-brain barrier is a system of cells that regulates the exchange of substances between the brain and the blood, and LRP removes amyloid beta protein—the same compound that is found to accumulate in the brains of those affected by Alzheimer’s—from the brain and into the bloodstream.

"We induced inflammation in mice and found that it turned off the LRP pump," explains Banks.

"It also revved up an entrance pump that transports amyloid beta into the brain. Both of these actions would increase the amount of amyloid beta protein in the brain," he adds.

Natural compounds including antioxidants and vitamin D have been proven to reduce inflammation as well as contribute to weight loss and control, heart health and cancer prevention.

For those who may not get enough antioxidants from their diet, nutritional health supplements may be a good alternative. (ADNFCR-1960-ID-19265496-ADNFCR)*

I've written many articles about inflammation, and it seems that inflammation continues to be at the root of most diseases. I know what Hippocrates said, "all disease is one", and I wonder if he was referring to inflammation. Today, inflammation is the number one medical issue facing people in North America.

Fighting inflammation is an ongoing problem. There are many man-made prescription anti-inflammatory drugs on the market today. However, many of them can had adverse side-effects, especially if you're taking other medications. That's why TriVita has developed and tested Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™.

Nopalea helps to fight inflammation naturally, through betalains, a very effective anti-inflammatory fighter found in the Nopal cactus. When these betalains enter into your system, by drinking Nopalea™, they begin to restore your vitality on a cellular level. By helping the body reduce the toxins surrounding your cells and enabling essential nutrients to reach each cell, the betalains in Nopalea™ can reduce the inflammation in your body that leads to disease.

Sonoran Bloom Nopalea - 1016

"Chronic pain lasts at least 6 months after your body has healed. Sometimes, people who have chronic pain don't know what is causing it. Along with discomfort, chronic pain can cause low self-esteem, depression and anger. It can also interfere with your daily activities."

"Treatment of chronic pain usually involves medicines and therapy. Medicines used for chronic pain include pain relievers, antidepressants and anticonvulsants. Different types of medicines help people who have different types of pain. You usually use long-acting medicines for constant pain. Short-acting medicines treat pain that comes and goes."

"Several types of therapy can help ease your pain. Physical therapy (such as stretching and strengthening activities) and low-impact exercise (such as walking, swimming or biking) can help reduce the pain. However, exercising too much or not at all can hurt chronic pain patients. Occupational therapy teaches you how to pace yourself and how to do ordinary tasks differently so you won't hurt yourself. Behavioral therapy can reduce your pain through methods (such as meditation and yoga) that help you relax. It can also help decrease stress." [1]

Lifestyle changes are an important part of treatment for chronic pain. Getting regular sleep at night and not taking daytime naps should help. Stopping smoking helps, also, because the nicotine in cigarettes can make some medicines less effective. Smokers also tend to have more pain than nonsmokers.

It has been reported that many forms of chronic pain comes from inflammation. Inflammation is an immune response; a response to an infection, an irritation, or an injury. Immune cells are called to the site through the blood stream. The blood vessels near the site become miraculously permeable and the site becomes warm and red due to the increased blood flow (warm, hence inflammation).

"When most people hear the word 'inflammation' they think of the swelling and redness that accompanies an injury such as a sprained ankle. However, inflammation can also be systemic and caused not by injury but by lack of exercise and a poor diet. Systemic inflammation increases the risk of cancer, hypertension, heart disease, gastrointestinal problems, and many other health conditions. In fact, many anti-aging experts believe that inflammation is the greatest cause of premature aging, so preventing it is also vital for looking young. Increasing exercise is one key to decreasing systemic inflammation, and the other key is to consume a diet that does not promote inflammation." [2]

"Healthy lifestyle habits such as exercising regularly, not smoking, maintaining a healthy weight, and minimizing stress all help to reduce inflammation. But the most important factor in fighting inflammation is the food you eat every day. That's why all the experts, from diet doctor Barry Sears (The Zone) to alternative medicine guru Andrew Weil (Healthy Aging) recommend an anti-inflammatory diet for everything from weight loss to heart disease prevention." [3]

"Inflammation as a major cause of disease is not new. It is at least a reasonable consideration that inflammation is involved with, if not the cause of, every other ill from which we suffer as a race. If that has not been true in the past, it is true today. No other cause of disease has a chance to take a foothold. Inflammation troubles have become so dominant that no other process may need to be considered. The cause of this inflammation is chemical toxicity." [4]

Many health experts suggest that you detoxify your body. In other words, rid your body of all the toxins that are either making certain organs work harder, or not work at all. When your organs aren't doing their job, your immune system may take over to rid your body of all the chemical toxicity.

One of the best ways of detoxify your body is by drinking TriVita's Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™. Nopalea™ is derived from the Nopal cactus, a desert superfruit that is loaded with betalains, powerful and formerly rare antioxidants. Betalains are known as a natural and very powerful anti-inflammatory nutrient, one that fights inflammation and thus, helps to relieve chronic pain that is caused by inflammation.

For thousands of years, the people of the Sonoran Desert have tapped into the power of its native healing plants. Now with Nopalea™, you can too.

Stop the pain and help fight inflammation with Nopalea™. Don't take a man-made drug, like Celebrex, to fight something that is not man-made, but rather caused naturally within your body. Don't risk damaging other parts of your body, but rather protect the most complex design at a cellular level.

Sonoran Bloom Nopalea - 1014

Of all the pain causing disorders, joint pain is the most common problem people face as they grow older. A recent report estimates that 21% of the adult population is affected by some form of joint-related pain. And that number is expected to rise even higher as baby boomers age, so by 2030, almost 67 million people will suffer from joint problems.

What can be done to relieve pain within the joints?

First off, we need to understand joint pain and some causes of joint pain. Joints which bear the most weight are mostly affected, like the knees, hips and spine.

Only as an example, let's focus on the knee. If you suffer from knee pain, you're not alone. According to the Mayo Clinic website, "almost one in three Americans older than age 45 reports some type of knee pain, and it's a common reason that people visit their doctors or the emergency room." [1]

There is a lot of information on the Mayo Clinic website (see links below), and since I'm not a medical professional, I can only quote the information they have posted. With that said, here is some information regarding knee pain symptoms:

"A knee injury can affect any of the ligaments, tendons or fluid-filled sacs (bursae) that surround your knee joint as well as the bones, cartilage and ligaments that form the joint itself. Because of the knee's complexity, the number of structures involved, the amount of use it gets over a lifetime, and the range of injuries and diseases that can cause knee pain, the signs and symptoms of knee problems can vary widely." [2]

Joint pain, not just in the knee, can be due to a variety of reasons. Age is the primary cause of arthritis, but other risk factors are obesity, heredity, injury such as a fracture, or athletes who overuse their joints. These factors are often associated with osteoarthritis.

Joint pain can also be caused by inflammation. Many of you have probably heard the term inflammation many times before. When you joint becomes inflammed, it causes severe pain, and limits your joints range of motion. Inflammed joints, according to some health care professionals, are the main reason people experience so much pain. What is inflammation and how does it relate to joint pain? And how do we get pain relief from that inflammatiom?

Inflammation is a process in which the body's white blood cells and chemicals help protect us from infection and foreign substances such as bacteria and viruses.

"When inflammation occurs, chemicals from the body are released into the blood or affected tissues. This release of chemicals increases the blood flow to the area of injury or infection and may result in redness and warmth. Some of the chemicals cause a leak of fluid into the tissues, resulting in swelling. This process may stimulate nerves and cause pain." [3]

"Increased blood flow and release of these chemicals attract white blood cells to the sites of inflammation. The increased number of cells and inflammatory substances within the joint can cause irritation, wearing down of cartilage (cushions at the end of bones) and swelling of the joint lining (synovium)." [3]

Again, I'm not a doctor or medical professional, but it seems to me that if we fight inflammation, the cause of musch joint pain, we may not suffer from joint pain. So, in my opinion, to get pain relief that lasts, we should fight the source of that pain, and what better way to do that that with TriVita's Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™.

Nopalea's betalains and other anti-inflammatory ingredients work directly on the fluid surrounding your cells. There, they draw off the toxins and excess water to reduce inflammation and rebalance the cellular environment.

Nopalea will help you fight inflammation and give you the pain relief you may be looking for. If inflammation is the source of your pain, Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™ is the solution.

Sonoran Bloom Nopalea FAQ (pt3)

As we conclude, I think the last question on the most frequently asked questions list, regarding TriVita's Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™ is probably the most important of all. As mentioned in my previous two posts (where we covered the sugar, salt and iron content of Nopalea, and the compatibility of prescription medications) questions always arise when it comes to new health and wellness products. This is not unique to Nopalea!

Mr. Brazos Minshew, Chief Science Officer for TriVita, writes a Weekly Wellness Report. In the latest report, he wrote about the top three questions asked regarding Nopalea™. This is the third most frequently asked question:

How much Nopalea can I take in a day?

"The label recommends one to three ounces daily. This is based on minimum amounts in otherwise healthy people. However, the greater the level of your inflammation, the more anti-inflammatory strategies you will need. That makes sense, doesn't it? You wouldn't want to quench a forest fire with a single bucket of water!" [1]

Endobronchial inflammation, the main cause of asthma, is one such disease that is treated with more than one anti-inflammatory strategy. According to an article published by Pub Med, the writer mentions the many different strategies one can use to treat asthma. However, and this is just my opinion, if we can prevent the inflammation, by using a product like Nopalea, we would not have to treat the disease. As a matter of fact, the article even mentions prevention. "Patients must be educated to increase their understanding of the benefits of preventive rather than symptomatic forms of treatment for this (asthma) chronic disease." [2]

To me, preventative medicine makes more sense, and if Nopalea can do one-half of what has been scientifically proven, many individuals will all be able to live more healthy and active lives.

Mr. Minshew continues by writing, "one member was experiencing a flare-up of a rheumatoid disorder. She had taken many remedies - prescription and non-prescription - and had seen chiropractors, acupuncturists and massage therapists. She had been in an unbroken cycle of pain for 18 months. She took additional ounces daily and broke the cycle of inflammation and pain in about three weeks. She continues to take it daily with no known adverse effects. And she is pain free."

"Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a long-term disease that leads to inflammation of the joints and surrounding tissues. It can also affect other organs. The cause of RA is unknown. It is considered an autoimmune disease. The body's immune system normally fights off foreign substances, like viruses. But in an autoimmune disease, the immune system confuses healthy tissue for foreign substances. As a result, the body attacks itself." [3]

Again, if Nopalea™ fights inflammation (one of its claims), you may be able to prevent RA before it attacks.

According to TriVita and Mr. Minshew, "in the early pilot trials of Nopalea we gave our test subjects 16 ounces daily. Not only did they not experience any known negative effects, their blood work universally improved."

So, here is the conclusion to the three most frequently asked questions regarding TriVita's Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™:

"So many of the maladies we suffer from today are related to inflammation. Nopalea contains Betalains; Betalains quench inflammation. Testimonials from around North America report amazing improvement in well-being with Nopalea. Science from around the world details the astounding health benefits from Betalains found in the Nopal cactus. Both scientific and empirical reports tell us that Nopalea is safe and effective in promoting wellness. Enjoy Nopalea often. I promise: we won't run out!" [1]

If inflammation is the problem - Nopalea™ may be the solution.

Sonoran Bloom Nopalea FAQ (pt2)

As I mentioned in my previous post, when it comes any new health and wellness product there are always questions about why, when and how to use it. Sometimes there are even concerns regarding the product, which leads to the second most frequently asked question about Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™:

Will Nopalea interfere with my medications?

According to TriVita's latest Weekly Wellness Report, Mr. Brazos Minshew, Chief Science Officer for TriVita, has this to say about the interference of Nopalea with prescription drug medications:

"Your physician and pharmacist know you best - ask them! We will say this: With over 200 papers published on the benefits of the Nopal cactus superfruit in human health, we have not found even one negative reaction or drug interaction. The only caution we discovered concerns the blood-thinner warfarin (Coumadin)." [1]

"Warfarin is an anticoagulant. It is used to decrease the clotting ability of the blood and to help prevent harmful clots from forming in the blood vessels. It is often used to prevent or treat deep venous thrombosis, a condition in which harmful blood clots form in the blood vessels of the legs. These blood clots can travel to the lungs and cause a condition called pulmonary embolism. Warfarin is also used to prevent or treat blood clots that are caused by certain heart conditions or open-heart surgery." [2]

If you take warfarin you need to speak with your pharmacist. Nopalea is a fruit juice. In rare instances, people on warfarin will be restricted from consuming fruit juices for a short time while their medication stabilizes. Only your physician and pharmacist know if you should be restricted from fruit juices at this time, so ask them before you take it. But TriVita has not found a single instance of drug interaction in the medical literature; Nopalea should be very safe.

Here are some warnings about Warfarin. These are taken from the Mayo Clinic website:

"Warfarin, especially if taken incorrectly, increases your risk of dangerous bleeding. Warfarin also can interact badly with some foods, prescription medicines and over-the-counter supplements. If you accidentally cut yourself while taking warfarin, you may bleed heavily. You're more likely to have bleeding problems if you're older than 75 or take other medications that can further increase your bleeding risk." [3]

While I did not find anything regarding a dangerous interaction between warfarin and Nopalea, I'll have to take TriVita's word on what they have found. I did see where cranberry juice and cranberries can have an affect on it. "Consumption of cranberries or cranberry juice can affect the way warfarin works and can increase your risk of bleeding. While an occasional glass of cranberry juice is unlikely to injure you, you should avoid drinking it regularly." [3]

Before taking any health and wellness supplement, talk to your doctor, especially if you're taking prescription medications. If you're suffering from inflammation, ask your doctor if Nopalea can help.

Sonoran Bloom Nopalea FAQ

As with any new health and wellness product, there are always questions about why, when and how to use it. The more popular the product, the more frequently the questions are repeated. This is the case with TriVita's newest product, Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™.

Within TriVita's latest Weekly Wellness Report, Mr. Brazos Minshew, Chief Science Officer for TriVita, attempts to answer some of the more common questions about Nopalea™, TriVita's wonderful anti-inflammatory product.

The most frequently asked questions are too important not to dedicate an individual post for each question. Because of the importance of these questions, I'll break them down into three separate articles and then try to find some research, or case studies, if applicable, to back up what Mr. Minshew has to say. I may also leave you with a thought provoking question, something for you to ponder.

How much sugar, salt and iron are in Nopalea?

"Nopalea™ contains NO ADDED SUGAR. It is naturally sweet. Yet it is still low-calorie and low-carbohydrate. Interestingly, the calories and carbohydrates will change from batch to batch depending on the harvest. Nopalea is "wildcrafted," meaning that Nopalea is not cultivated, and no fertilizers, pesticides or chemicals of any kind are ever used - ever! It is harvested from the Sonoran Desert by natives just as it has been for thousands of years. Since it is not cultivated, the concentration of sugars and minerals in the plant change depending on how much rain we have that year. The label will accurately reflect the concentration of constituents for that harvest." [1]

When it comes to products that have been wildcrafted, there are strict guidelines that must be followed. According to Wikipedia, "in the United States of America, wildcrafted plants are regulated by the Organic Food Production Act of 1990. Harvesters must designate the area they are harvesting and provide a three-year history of the area that shows no prohibited substances have been applied there. A plan for harvesting must show that the harvest will sustain the wild crop. No prohibited substances can be added by processors." [2]

So as you can see by these strict guidelines, you can be assured that Nopalea is truly an all natural, organic product.

Mr. Minshew says that in providing the proper nutritional information to the consumer, Nopalea™ does present a challenge, and he continues his discussion by saying, "Nopalea™ is the first product of its kind. Therefore, no "standards" data existed before we created them. So, label changes happen because we created the testing standards to accurately measure the rare and powerful constituents of Nopalea." [1]

As mentioned previously, Nopalea™ comes from the nopal cactus that is found in the Sonoran Desert, located in the southwestern United States, and the northwestern parts of Mexico. Some historians have said that the ancient Mexican cultures, living in the high mountain volcanic regions, originally adopted the Nopal prickly pear cactus as a healing food and treasured this high mountain variety, relegating Nopal cactus as the supreme healing plant and food among its kings and warriors.

I'm not sure if that statement is correct, but if you search Google for Sonoran Bloom Nopalea, this is the type of information you will find, and nothing about other products created using the nopal cactus. As we all know, if there was another product, you would find it on the web by searching Google. So judge for your self! Is Nopalea™ a one of a kind product?

Sonoran Bloom Nopalea

There are many drugs prescribed by doctors to help fight inflammation. These anti-inflammatory drugs have side effects for many users. Celebrex is one of the most popular anti-inflammatory drugs. However, there have been may side effects related to this drug. Some of those side effects reported by the drug companies include diarrhea, dizziness, indigestion, stomach pain, gas, nausea, or headache.

Celebrex is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) known as a COX-2 inhibitor used to reduce the pain and inflammation of osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis in adults. It may also be used to treat other conditions as determined by your doctor.

There are two enzymes in the body called COX-1 and COX-2. COX-1 helps regulate the normal cell function in the stomach and blood. COX-2 plays some role in causing arthritis pain and inflammation. Celebrex is the first product to target the COX-2 enzyme, inhibiting only that enzyme.

Although Celebrex may be prescribed by your doctor to help fight inflammation, I believe the side effects this medication causes may be more harmful than the actual benefits it can provide. Fighting inflammation, in my opinion, should not have to come with the risk of damaging other parts of your body. Fighting the pain caused by inflammation should be a natural process. After all, didn't God create a body that is capable to heal itself naturally?

Natural pain relief, from inflammation and other sources, comes from inside your body, from all the cells that make up this complex system. However, you cells have to be fed the right type of vitamins, minerals, and nutrients to keep it functioning at a high level. Eating healthy meals comprised of fruits and vegetables will help the cells within your body flourish. I believe it's the unhealthy, junk food, we eat that destroys our healthy cells.

Taking daily supplements and/or drinking vitamin and mineral rich wellness drinks is another way to get the nutrients your body needs. One wellness drink that comes to mind is TriVita's Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™.

Nopalea™ (No--pah lay' uh) blends antioxidant-rich Nopal cactus super fruit with naturally sweet Agave nectar to bring you a deliciously unique concentrated wellness drink. Harnessing the power of betalains, a rare and powerful class of antioxidants that flourishes in the Nopal fruit, Nopalea delivers scientifically proven health benefits.

Betalains are the pigments that give the Nopal cactus fruit its vibrant pink color. But that's just the beginning. They're also natural antioxidants—and they're only found in a few of the world's plants.

The Nopal fruit isn't just included in this small group of special plants, it actually leads the group by containing one of the highest amounts of betalains in all of nature.

When these betalains enter into your system, by drinking Nopalea™, they begin to restore your vitality on a cellular level. By helping the body reduce the toxins surrounding your cells and enabling essential nutrients to reach each cell, the betalains in Nopalea™ can reduce the inflammation in your body that leads to disease.

As mentioned earlier, natural pain relief, from inflammation and other sources, comes from inside your body, from all the cells that make up this complex system. I believe its the natural healing of your cells, through an all natural product that God has put at our disposal, that relieves pain and fights inflammation.

There is NO reason any one should have to walk around in pain that's caused by inflammation. There are natural products that can help your fight inflammation and give you the pain relief you need; Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™ is one such product.

Drink Nopalea™ daily to help:

• Protect against premature aging
• Reduce inflammation
• Promote optimal cellular health
• Detoxify the body

For thousands of years, the people of the Sonoran Desert have tapped into the power of its native healing plants. Now with Nopalea™, you can too.

Stop the pain and help fight inflammation with Nopalea™. Don't take a man-made drug, like Celebrex, to fight something that is not man-made, but rather caused naturally within your body. Don't risk damaging other parts of your body, but rather protect the most complex design at a cellular level.

Natural Pain Relief - 1102

I've been writing about natural pain relief associated with inflammation, its causes, and how to fight it. My articles typically involve sharing information I found when doing searches on Google. I receive weekly health and wellness newsletters that contain important information regarding your health. As part of my passion for healthier lifestyles, I like to share that information with you.

There has never been a more important newsletter than the one I received this past weekend. It's by TriVita, and is written by Brazos Minshew, TriVita's Chief Science Officer. The article is called Important Health News - Protect Yourself from the Flu. As we all know, unless you've been living under a rock, the H1N1 flu virus is attacking Americans at an alarming rate.

Is there a way to protect your self from the H1N1 virus? According to Mr. Minshew, when it comes to fighting the flu we need to focus on three pathways, transmission, infection, and inflammation. In his article, he explains his theory. However, I'd like to focus on the third pathway, inflammation. Below is an excerpt form his article. To read the complete article, copy and paste the link at the bottom of this article into your web browser.

Inflammation

We will begin at the ending: Inflammation from the immune system that incapacitates - even kills - people when they have the flu. MOST IMPORTANT: The flu kills people not by transmission or by infection, but by an inflammatory immune system response called the "cytokine storm."

Our immune system is designed to neutralize and excrete any non-self protein it finds. That includes the influenza virus. The size of the immune response needs to be equivalent to the strength of the invader.

Think of this as a building on fire: small fires are extinguished by local fire fighters. Some fires are so big that fire fighters from other departments have to be called in to help. So, fires are designated as "one-alarm,""two-alarm,""three-alarm,"and so on. At a certain point, our immune system pulls all of the alarms and immune system fractions from all over our body rush to put out the fire, so to speak. However, this is a case of fighting fire with fire. Cytokines are inflammatory. They kill viruses and bacteria by creating inflammation.

The cytokine storm is responsible for all of the symptoms we feel: fever, body aches, nausea, diarrhea, etc. It is also responsible for filling the lungs with mucous (pneumonia/pneumonitis) which is often the fatal trigger in influenza, SARS, Hanta virus, bubonic plague, etc.

To survive we must modulate the cytokine storm so that it does its job but doesn't overwork and kill us. We make it work smarter, not harder. So we don't use Vitamin C or Echinacea or anything that "boosts"the immune system. We use immune system modulators so we get exactly the right response. Quercetin (Betalains in Sonoran Bloom Nopalea are quercetin bioflavonoids), green tea polyphenols (found in Energy Now!) and ginseng (Panax and Eleutherococcus found in Adaptogen 10 Plus) all balance the immune system and decrease the cytokine storm.

I know this may sound somewhat like an advertisement for TriVita products, well yes, and no. In my opinion, it's a way to protect yourself from the H1N1 virus. I believe we need help prevent the spreading of this terrible virus, and one way to do is is to protect yourself from getting it.

Mr. Minshew mentioned Sonoran Bloom Nopalea is his article. Nopalea helps to fight inflammation and naturally relieve pain associated with it, through betalains, a very effective anti-inflammatory fighter which is found in the Nopal cactus.

Natural Pain Relief from Nopalea

I'm always into sharing information I find and/or receive regarding our health. Today I'd like to share an article I received regarding inflammation and its affect on the development of Alzheimer's disease. I'm including the article in its entirety to prevent any misinterpretation.

The article is written on October 22, 2009 by Patrycja Podrazik for Health Resources News. If you suffer from any form of inflammation and your looking for natural pain relief and/or you know someone suffering from Alzheimer's disease, I highly suggest that you read this article.

A recent study has shed light on inflammatory mechanisms that may contribute to the development of Alzheimer’s disease, an incurable neurodegenerative condition.

Research by Dr. William A. Banks, professor of geriatrics and pharmacological and physiological science at Saint Louis University School of Medicine, suggests inflammation causes a blood-brain barrier transporter known as LRP to malfunction.

The blood-brain barrier is a system of cells that regulates the exchange of substances between the brain and the blood, and LRP removes amyloid beta protein—the same compound that is found to accumulate in the brains of those affected by Alzheimer’s—from the brain and into the bloodstream.

"We induced inflammation in mice and found that it turned off the LRP pump," explains Banks.

"It also revved up an entrance pump that transports amyloid beta into the brain. Both of these actions would increase the amount of amyloid beta protein in the brain," he adds.

Natural compounds including antioxidants and vitamin D have been proven to reduce inflammation as well as contribute to weight loss and control, heart health and cancer prevention.

For those who may not get enough antioxidants from their diet, nutritional health supplements may be a good alternative. (ADNFCR-1960-ID-19265496-ADNFCR)*

I've written many articles about inflammation and natural pain relief, and it seems that inflammation continues to be at the root of most diseases. I know what Hippocrates said, "all disease is one", and I wonder if he was referring to inflammation. Today, inflammation is the number one medical issue facing people in North America.

Fighting inflammation is an ongoing problem. There are many man-made prescription anti-inflammatory drugs on the market today. However, many of them can had adverse side-effects, especially if you're taking other medications. That's why TriVita has developed and tested Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™.

Nopalea helps to relieve pain and fight inflammation naturally, through betalains, a very effective anti-inflammatory fighter found in the Nopal cactus. When these betalains enter into your system, by drinking Nopalea™, they begin to restore your vitality on a cellular level. By helping the body reduce the toxins surrounding your cells and enabling essential nutrients to reach each cell, the betalains in Nopalea™ can reduce the inflammation in your body that leads to disease.

Natural Pain Relief - 1016

"Chronic pain lasts at least 6 months after your body has healed. Sometimes, people who have chronic pain don't know what is causing it. Along with discomfort, chronic pain can cause low self-esteem, depression and anger. It can also interfere with your daily activities."

"Treatment of chronic pain usually involves medicines and therapy. Medicines used for chronic pain include pain relievers, antidepressants and anticonvulsants. Different types of medicines help people who have different types of pain. You usually use long-acting medicines for constant pain. Short-acting medicines treat pain that comes and goes."

"Several types of therapy can help ease your pain. Physical therapy (such as stretching and strengthening activities) and low-impact exercise (such as walking, swimming or biking) can help reduce the pain. However, exercising too much or not at all can hurt chronic pain patients. Occupational therapy teaches you how to pace yourself and how to do ordinary tasks differently so you won't hurt yourself. Behavioral therapy can reduce your pain through methods (such as meditation and yoga) that help you relax. It can also help decrease stress." [1]

Lifestyle changes are an important part of treatment for chronic pain. Getting regular sleep at night and not taking daytime naps should help. Stopping smoking helps, also, because the nicotine in cigarettes can make some medicines less effective. Smokers also tend to have more pain than nonsmokers.

It has been reported that many forms of chronic pain comes from inflammation. Inflammation is an immune response; a response to an infection, an irritation, or an injury. Immune cells are called to the site through the blood stream. The blood vessels near the site become miraculously permeable and the site becomes warm and red due to the increased blood flow (warm, hence inflammation).

"When most people hear the word 'inflammation' they think of the swelling and redness that accompanies an injury such as a sprained ankle. However, inflammation can also be systemic and caused not by injury but by lack of exercise and a poor diet. Systemic inflammation increases the risk of cancer, hypertension, heart disease, gastrointestinal problems, and many other health conditions. In fact, many anti-aging experts believe that inflammation is the greatest cause of premature aging, so preventing it is also vital for looking young. Increasing exercise is one key to decreasing systemic inflammation, and the other key is to consume a diet that does not promote inflammation." [2]

"Healthy lifestyle habits such as exercising regularly, not smoking, maintaining a healthy weight, and minimizing stress all help to reduce inflammation. But the most important factor in fighting inflammation is the food you eat every day. That's why all the experts, from diet doctor Barry Sears (The Zone) to alternative medicine guru Andrew Weil (Healthy Aging) recommend an anti-inflammatory diet for everything from weight loss to heart disease prevention." [3]

"Inflammation as a major cause of disease is not new. It is at least a reasonable consideration that inflammation is involved with, if not the cause of, every other ill from which we suffer as a race. If that has not been true in the past, it is true today. No other cause of disease has a chance to take a foothold. Inflammation troubles have become so dominant that no other process may need to be considered. The cause of this inflammation is chemical toxicity." [4]

Many health experts suggest that you detoxify your body. In other words, rid your body of all the toxins that are either making certain organs work harder, or not work at all. When your organs aren't doing their job, your immune system may take over to rid your body of all the chemical toxicity.

One of the best ways of detoxify your body is by drinking TriVita's Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™. Nopalea™ is derived from the Nopal cactus, a desert superfruit that is loaded with betalains, powerful and formerly rare antioxidants. Betalains are known as a natural and very powerful anti-inflammatory nutrient, one that fights inflammation and thus, helps to relieve chronic pain that is caused by inflammation.

For thousands of years, the people of the Sonoran Desert have tapped into the power of its native healing plants. Now with Nopalea™, you can too.

Stop the pain and help fight inflammation with Nopalea™. Don't take a man-made drug, like Celebrex, to fight something that is not man-made, but rather caused naturally within your body. Don't risk damaging other parts of your body, but rather protect the most complex design at a cellular level.

Natural Pain Relief - 1014

Of all the pain causing disorders, joint pain is the most common problem people face as they grow older. A recent report estimates that 21% of the adult population is affected by some form of joint-related pain. And that number is expected to rise even higher as baby boomers age, so by 2030, almost 67 million people will suffer from joint problems.

What can be done to relieve pain naturally within the joints?

First off, we need to understand joint pain and some causes of joint pain. Joints which bear the most weight are mostly affected, like the knees, hips and spine.

Only as an example, let's focus on the knee. If you suffer from knee pain, you're not alone. According to the Mayo Clinic website, "almost one in three Americans older than age 45 reports some type of knee pain, and it's a common reason that people visit their doctors or the emergency room." [1]

There is a lot of information on the Mayo Clinic website (see links below), and since I'm not a medical professional, I can only quote the information they have posted. With that said, here is some information regarding knee pain symptoms:

"A knee injury can affect any of the ligaments, tendons or fluid-filled sacs (bursae) that surround your knee joint as well as the bones, cartilage and ligaments that form the joint itself. Because of the knee's complexity, the number of structures involved, the amount of use it gets over a lifetime, and the range of injuries and diseases that can cause knee pain, the signs and symptoms of knee problems can vary widely." [2]

Joint pain, not just in the knee, can be due to a variety of reasons. Age is the primary cause of arthritis, but other risk factors are obesity, heredity, injury such as a fracture, or athletes who overuse their joints. These factors are often associated with osteoarthritis.

Joint pain can also be caused by inflammation. Many of you have probably heard the term inflammation many times before. When you joint becomes inflammed, it causes severe pain, and limits your joints range of motion. Inflamed joints, according to some health care professionals, are the main reason people experience so much pain. What is inflammation and how does it relate to joint pain? And how do we get natural pain relief from that inflammatiom?

Inflammation is a process in which the body's white blood cells and chemicals help protect us from infection and foreign substances such as bacteria and viruses.

"When inflammation occurs, chemicals from the body are released into the blood or affected tissues. This release of chemicals increases the blood flow to the area of injury or infection and may result in redness and warmth. Some of the chemicals cause a leak of fluid into the tissues, resulting in swelling. This process may stimulate nerves and cause pain." [3]

"Increased blood flow and release of these chemicals attract white blood cells to the sites of inflammation. The increased number of cells and inflammatory substances within the joint can cause irritation, wearing down of cartilage (cushions at the end of bones) and swelling of the joint lining (synovium)." [3]

Again, I'm not a doctor or medical professional, but it seems to me that if we fight inflammation, the cause of musch joint pain, we may not suffer from joint pain. So, in my opinion, to get natural pain relief that lasts, we should fight the source of that pain, and what better way to do that that with TriVita's Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™.

Nopalea's betalains and other anti-inflammatory ingredients work directly on the fluid surrounding your cells. There, they draw off the toxins and excess water to reduce inflammation and rebalance the cellular environment.

Nopalea will help you fight inflammation and give you the pain relief you may be looking for. If inflammation is the source of your pain, Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™ is the solution.

Natural Pain Relief FAQ (pt3)

As we conclude, I think the last question on the most frequently asked questions list, regarding TriVita's Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™ is probably the most important of all. As mentioned in my previous two posts (where we covered the sugar, salt and iron content of Nopalea, and the compatibility of prescription medications) questions always arise when it comes to new health and wellness products. This is not unique to Nopalea!

Mr. Brazos Minshew, Chief Science Officer for TriVita, writes a Weekly Wellness Report. In the latest report, he wrote about the top three questions asked regarding Nopalea™. This is the third most frequently asked question:

How much Nopalea can I take in a day?

"The label recommends one to three ounces daily. This is based on minimum amounts in otherwise healthy people. However, the greater the level of your inflammation, the more anti-inflammatory strategies you will need. That makes sense, doesn't it? You wouldn't want to quench a forest fire with a single bucket of water!" [1]

Endobronchial inflammation, the main cause of asthma, is one such disease that is treated with more than one anti-inflammatory strategy. According to an article published by Pub Med, the writer mentions the many different strategies one can use to treat asthma, and provide natural pain relief. However, and this is just my opinion, if we can prevent the inflammation, by using a product like Nopalea, we would not have to treat the disease. As a matter of fact, the article even mentions prevention. "Patients must be educated to increase their understanding of the benefits of preventive rather than symptomatic forms of treatment for this (asthma) chronic disease." [2]

To me, preventative medicine makes more sense, and if Nopalea can do one-half of what has been scientifically proven, many individuals will all be able to live more healthy and active lives. If you're looking for pain relief

Mr. Minshew continues by writing, "one member was experiencing a flare-up of a rheumatoid disorder. She had taken many remedies - prescription and non-prescription - and had seen chiropractors, acupuncturists and massage therapists. She had been in an unbroken cycle of pain for 18 months. She took additional ounces daily and broke the cycle of inflammation and pain in about three weeks. She continues to take it daily with no known adverse effects. And she is pain free."

"Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a long-term disease that leads to inflammation of the joints and surrounding tissues. It can also affect other organs. The cause of RA is unknown. It is considered an autoimmune disease. The body's immune system normally fights off foreign substances, like viruses. But in an autoimmune disease, the immune system confuses healthy tissue for foreign substances. As a result, the body attacks itself." [3]

Again, if Nopalea™ fights inflammation, and can help you get some much needed natural pain relief (two of its claims), you may be able to prevent RA before it attacks.

According to TriVita and Mr. Minshew, "in the early pilot trials of Nopalea we gave our test subjects 16 ounces daily. Not only did they not experience any known negative effects, their blood work universally improved."

So, here is the conclusion to the three most frequently asked questions regarding TriVita's Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™:

"So many of the maladies we suffer from today are related to inflammation. Nopalea contains Betalains; Betalains quench inflammation. Testimonials from around North America report amazing improvement in well-being with Nopalea. Science from around the world details the astounding health benefits from Betalains found in the Nopal cactus. Both scientific and empirical reports tell us that Nopalea is safe and effective in promoting wellness. Enjoy Nopalea often. I promise: we won't run out!" [1]

If inflammation is the problem - Nopalea™ may be the solution. If natural pain relief is your quest - Nopalea may be the solution.

Natural Pain Relief FAQ (pt2)

As I mentioned in my previous post, when it comes any new health and wellness product there are always questions about why, when and how to use it. Sometimes there are even concerns regarding the product, which leads to the second most frequently asked question about Sonoran Bloom Nopalea,™ TriVita's wonderful anti-inflammatory and natural pain relief product.

Will Nopalea interfere with my medications?

According to TriVita's latest Weekly Wellness Report, Mr. Brazos Minshew, Chief Science Officer for TriVita, has this to say about the interference of Nopalea with prescription drug medications:

"Your physician and pharmacist know you best - ask them! We will say this: With over 200 papers published on the benefits of the Nopal cactus superfruit in human health, we have not found even one negative reaction or drug interaction. The only caution we discovered concerns the blood-thinner warfarin (Coumadin)." [1]

"Warfarin is an anticoagulant. It is used to decrease the clotting ability of the blood and to help prevent harmful clots from forming in the blood vessels. It is often used to prevent or treat deep venous thrombosis, a condition in which harmful blood clots form in the blood vessels of the legs. These blood clots can travel to the lungs and cause a condition called pulmonary embolism. Warfarin is also used to prevent or treat blood clots that are caused by certain heart conditions or open-heart surgery." [2]

If you take warfarin you need to speak with your pharmacist. Nopalea is a fruit juice. In rare instances, people on warfarin will be restricted from consuming fruit juices for a short time while their medication stabilizes. Only your physician and pharmacist know if you should be restricted from fruit juices at this time, so ask them before you take it. But TriVita has not found a single instance of drug interaction in the medical literature; Nopalea should be very safe, especially if you're drinking it because you want natural pain relief from pain caused by chronic inflammation.

Here are some warnings about Warfarin. These are taken from the Mayo Clinic website:

"Warfarin, especially if taken incorrectly, increases your risk of dangerous bleeding. Warfarin also can interact badly with some foods, prescription medicines and over-the-counter supplements. If you accidentally cut yourself while taking warfarin, you may bleed heavily. You're more likely to have bleeding problems if you're older than 75 or take other medications that can further increase your bleeding risk." [3]

While I did not find anything regarding a dangerous interaction between warfarin and Nopalea, I'll have to take TriVita's word on what they have found. I did see where cranberry juice and cranberries can have an affect on it. "Consumption of cranberries or cranberry juice can affect the way warfarin works and can increase your risk of bleeding. While an occasional glass of cranberry juice is unlikely to injure you, you should avoid drinking it regularly." [3]

Before taking any health and wellness supplement, talk to your doctor, especially if you're taking prescription medications. If you're suffering from inflammation, and looking for natual pain relief ask your doctor if Nopalea is right for you.

Natural Pain Relief FAQ

As with any new health and wellness product, there are always questions about why, when and how to use it. The more popular the product, the more frequently the questions are repeated. This is the case with TriVita's newest product, Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™.

Within TriVita's latest Weekly Wellness Report, Mr. Brazos Minshew, Chief Science Officer for TriVita, attempts to answer some of the more common questions about Nopalea™, TriVita's wonderful anti-inflammatory and natural pain relief product.

The most frequently asked questions are too important not to dedicate an individual post for each question. Because of the importance of these questions, I'll break them down into three separate articles and then try to find some research, or case studies, if applicable, to back up what Mr. Minshew has to say. I may also leave you with a thought provoking question, something for you to ponder.

How much sugar, salt and iron are in Nopalea?

"Nopalea™ contains NO ADDED SUGAR. It is naturally sweet. Yet it is still low-calorie and low-carbohydrate. Interestingly, the calories and carbohydrates will change from batch to batch depending on the harvest. Nopalea is "wildcrafted," meaning that Nopalea is not cultivated, and no fertilizers, pesticides or chemicals of any kind are ever used - ever! It is harvested from the Sonoran Desert by natives just as it has been for thousands of years. Since it is not cultivated, the concentration of sugars and minerals in the plant change depending on how much rain we have that year. The label will accurately reflect the concentration of constituents for that harvest." [1]

When it comes to products that have been wildcrafted, there are strict guidelines that must be followed. According to Wikipedia, "in the United States of America, wildcrafted plants are regulated by the Organic Food Production Act of 1990. Harvesters must designate the area they are harvesting and provide a three-year history of the area that shows no prohibited substances have been applied there. A plan for harvesting must show that the harvest will sustain the wild crop. No prohibited substances can be added by processors." [2]

So as you can see by these strict guidelines, you can be assured that Nopalea is truly an all natural pain relief product.

Mr. Minshew says that in providing the proper nutritional information to the consumer, Nopalea™ does present a challenge, and he continues his discussion by saying, "Nopalea™ is the first product of its kind. Therefore, no "standards" data existed before we created them. So, label changes happen because we created the testing standards to accurately measure the rare and powerful constituents of Nopalea." [1]

As mentioned previously, Nopalea™ comes from the nopal cactus that is found in the Sonoran Desert, located in the southwestern United States, and the northwestern parts of Mexico. Some historians have said that the ancient Mexican cultures, living in the high mountain volcanic regions, originally adopted the Nopal prickly pear cactus as a healing food, for natural pain relief, and treasured this high mountain variety, relegating Nopal cactus as the supreme healing plant and food among its kings and warriors.

I'm not sure if that statement is correct, but if you search Google for Sonoran Bloom Nopalea, this is the type of information you will find, and nothing about other products created using the nopal cactus. As we all know, if there was another product, you would find it on the web by searching Google. So judge for your self! Is Nopalea™ a one of a kind product, and can it provide natural pain relief?

Natural Pain Relief

Nopalea™ (No--pah lay' uh) blends antioxidant-rich Nopal cactus superfruit with naturally sweet Agave nectar to bring you a deliciously unique concentrated wellness drink. Harnessing the power of betalains, a rare and powerful class of antioxidants that flourishes in the Nopal fruit, Nopalea delivers scientifically proven health benefits.

Betalains are the pigments that give the Nopal cactus fruit its vibrant pink color. But that's just the beginning. They're also natural antioxidants—and they're only found in a few of the world's plants.

The Nopal fruit isn't just included in this small group of special plants, it actually leads the group by containing one of the highest amounts of betalains in all of nature.

When you drink Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™, you take these betalains into your system, where they begin to restore your vitality on a cellular level. By helping the body reduce the toxins surrounding your cells and enabling essential nutrients to reach each cell, the betalains in Nopalea can reduce the inflammation, and supply natural pain relief, in your body that leads to disease.

Scientific research shows that betalains help to:

• Reduces the risk of blood clots—betalains protect the thin lining of your blood vessels; this helps reduce the inflammation that makes your blood sticky and leads to clots.[1]
• Reduces bad cholesterol—betalains strongly reduce oxidized LDL cholesterol.[2]
• Protects cells from toxins—betalains protect many types of cells, especially brain cells, from toxins known to trigger tumors.]3]
• Protects your liver—betalains provide significant protection from toxins that directly affect your liver.[4]

Nopalea uses only the freshest Nopal cactus fruit and preserves its antioxidant potency in our state-of-the-art facility. We carefully harvest the fruit using sustainable wildcrafting techniques that have been practiced in the Sonoran Desert for thousands of years.

Using sustainable wildcrafting techniques learned from native Sonoran ancestors, Nopalea™ takes only what's needed from the extraordinary Nopal cactus. TriVita leaves most of the fruit on the plant to nourish the desert animals and ensure an abundant crop for future harvests. It's their way of giving back, respecting the cycle of life and celebrating the harvest season.

Nopalea is a natural, low-calorie concentrated wellness drink that helps you live a healthier life and give you natural pain relief. Drink Nopalea™ daily to help:

• Protect against premature aging
• Reduce inflammation
• Promote optimal cellular health
• Detoxify the body

For thousands of years, the people of the Sonoran Desert have tapped into the power of its native healing plants. Now with Nopalea™, you can too.

Like all TriVita products, Nopalea™ is created in accordance with our company's 10 Foundational Values. These Values ensure the quality of Nopalea™, which is made under the strictest quality controls in the nutritional supplement industry. All of the Nopalea™ manufacturing and laboratory processes meet or exceed the most current Good Manufacturing Practices, as published by the Food and Drug Administration.

Sonoran Bloom is destined to become one of the top selling products for TriVita.

Pain Relief - 1102

I've been writing about natural pain relief associated with inflammation, its causes, and how to fight it. My articles typically involve sharing information I found when doing searches on Google. I receive weekly health and wellness newsletters that contain important information regarding your health. As part of my passion for healthier lifestyles, I like to share that information with you.

There has never been a more important newsletter than the one I received this past weekend. It's by TriVita, and is written by Brazos Minshew, TriVita's Chief Science Officer. The article is called Important Health News - Protect Yourself from the Flu. As we all know, unless you've been living under a rock, the H1N1 flu virus is attacking Americans at an alarming rate.

Is there a way to protect your self from the H1N1 virus? According to Mr. Minshew, when it comes to fighting the flu we need to focus on three pathways, transmission, infection, and inflammation. In his article, he explains his theory. However, I'd like to focus on the third pathway, inflammation. Below is an excerpt form his article. To read the complete article, copy and paste the link at the bottom of this article into your web browser.

Inflammation

We will begin at the ending: Inflammation from the immune system that incapacitates - even kills - people when they have the flu. MOST IMPORTANT: The flu kills people not by transmission or by infection, but by an inflammatory immune system response called the "cytokine storm."

Our immune system is designed to neutralize and excrete any non-self protein it finds. That includes the influenza virus. The size of the immune response needs to be equivalent to the strength of the invader.

Think of this as a building on fire: small fires are extinguished by local fire fighters. Some fires are so big that fire fighters from other departments have to be called in to help. So, fires are designated as "one-alarm,""two-alarm,""three-alarm,"and so on. At a certain point, our immune system pulls all of the alarms and immune system fractions from all over our body rush to put out the fire, so to speak. However, this is a case of fighting fire with fire. Cytokines are inflammatory. They kill viruses and bacteria by creating inflammation.

The cytokine storm is responsible for all of the symptoms we feel: fever, body aches, nausea, diarrhea, etc. It is also responsible for filling the lungs with mucous (pneumonia/pneumonitis) which is often the fatal trigger in influenza, SARS, Hanta virus, bubonic plague, etc.

To survive we must modulate the cytokine storm so that it does its job but doesn't overwork and kill us. We make it work smarter, not harder. So we don't use Vitamin C or Echinacea or anything that "boosts"the immune system. We use immune system modulators so we get exactly the right response. Quercetin (Betalains in Sonoran Bloom Nopalea are quercetin bioflavonoids), green tea polyphenols (found in Energy Now!) and ginseng (Panax and Eleutherococcus found in Adaptogen 10 Plus) all balance the immune system and decrease the cytokine storm.

I know this may sound somewhat like an advertisement for TriVita products, well yes, and no. In my opinion, it's a way to protect yourself from the H1N1 virus. I believe we need help prevent the spreading of this terrible virus, and one way to do is is to protect yourself from getting it.

Mr. Minshew mentioned Sonoran Bloom Nopalea is his article. Nopalea helps to fight inflammation and naturally relieve pain associated with it, through betalains, a very effective anti-inflammatory fighter which is found in the Nopal cactus.

Pain Relief from Nopalea

I'm always into sharing information I find and/or receive regarding our health. Today I'd like to share an article I received regarding inflammation and its affect on the development of Alzheimer's disease. I'm including the article in its entirety to prevent any misinterpretation.

The article is written on October 22, 2009 by Patrycja Podrazik for Health Resources News. If you suffer from any form of inflammation and your looking for pain relief and/or you know someone suffering from Alzheimer's disease, I highly suggest that you read this article.

A recent study has shed light on inflammatory mechanisms that may contribute to the development of Alzheimer’s disease, an incurable neurodegenerative condition.

Research by Dr. William A. Banks, professor of geriatrics and pharmacological and physiological science at Saint Louis University School of Medicine, suggests inflammation causes a blood-brain barrier transporter known as LRP to malfunction.

The blood-brain barrier is a system of cells that regulates the exchange of substances between the brain and the blood, and LRP removes amyloid beta protein—the same compound that is found to accumulate in the brains of those affected by Alzheimer’s—from the brain and into the bloodstream.

"We induced inflammation in mice and found that it turned off the LRP pump," explains Banks.

"It also revved up an entrance pump that transports amyloid beta into the brain. Both of these actions would increase the amount of amyloid beta protein in the brain," he adds.

Natural compounds including antioxidants and vitamin D have been proven to reduce inflammation as well as contribute to weight loss and control, heart health and cancer prevention.

For those who may not get enough antioxidants from their diet, nutritional health supplements may be a good alternative. (ADNFCR-1960-ID-19265496-ADNFCR)*

I've written many articles about inflammation and pain relief, and it seems that inflammation continues to be at the root of most diseases. I know what Hippocrates said, "all disease is one", and I wonder if he was referring to inflammation. Today, inflammation is the number one medical issue facing people in North America.

Fighting inflammation is an ongoing problem. There are many man-made prescription anti-inflammatory drugs on the market today. However, many of them can had adverse side-effects, especially if you're taking other medications. That's why TriVita has developed and tested Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™.

Nopalea helps to relieve pain and fight inflammation naturally, through betalains, a very effective anti-inflammatory fighter found in the Nopal cactus. When these betalains enter into your system, by drinking Nopalea™, they begin to restore your vitality on a cellular level. By helping the body reduce the toxins surrounding your cells and enabling essential nutrients to reach each cell, the betalains in Nopalea™ can reduce the inflammation in your body that leads to disease.

Chronic Pain Relief - 1016

"Chronic pain lasts at least 6 months after your body has healed. Sometimes, people who have chronic pain don't know what is causing it. Along with discomfort, chronic pain can cause low self-esteem, depression and anger. It can also interfere with your daily activities."

"Treatment of chronic pain usually involves medicines and therapy. Medicines used for chronic pain include pain relievers, antidepressants and anticonvulsants. Different types of medicines help people who have different types of pain. You usually use long-acting medicines for constant pain. Short-acting medicines treat pain that comes and goes."

"Several types of therapy can help ease your pain. Physical therapy (such as stretching and strengthening activities) and low-impact exercise (such as walking, swimming or biking) can help reduce the pain. However, exercising too much or not at all can hurt chronic pain patients. Occupational therapy teaches you how to pace yourself and how to do ordinary tasks differently so you won't hurt yourself. Behavioral therapy can reduce your pain through methods (such as meditation and yoga) that help you relax. It can also help decrease stress." [1]

Lifestyle changes are an important part of treatment for chronic pain. Getting regular sleep at night and not taking daytime naps should help. Stopping smoking helps, also, because the nicotine in cigarettes can make some medicines less effective. Smokers also tend to have more pain than nonsmokers.

It has been reported that many forms of chronic pain comes from inflammation. Inflammation is an immune response; a response to an infection, an irritation, or an injury. Immune cells are called to the site through the blood stream. The blood vessels near the site become miraculously permeable and the site becomes warm and red due to the increased blood flow (warm, hence inflammation).

"When most people hear the word 'inflammation' they think of the swelling and redness that accompanies an injury such as a sprained ankle. However, inflammation can also be systemic and caused not by injury but by lack of exercise and a poor diet. Systemic inflammation increases the risk of cancer, hypertension, heart disease, gastrointestinal problems, and many other health conditions. In fact, many anti-aging experts believe that inflammation is the greatest cause of premature aging, so preventing it is also vital for looking young. Increasing exercise is one key to decreasing systemic inflammation, and the other key is to consume a diet that does not promote inflammation." [2]

"Healthy lifestyle habits such as exercising regularly, not smoking, maintaining a healthy weight, and minimizing stress all help to reduce inflammation. But the most important factor in fighting inflammation is the food you eat every day. That's why all the experts, from diet doctor Barry Sears (The Zone) to alternative medicine guru Andrew Weil (Healthy Aging) recommend an anti-inflammatory diet for everything from weight loss to heart disease prevention." [3]

"Inflammation as a major cause of disease is not new. It is at least a reasonable consideration that inflammation is involved with, if not the cause of, every other ill from which we suffer as a race. If that has not been true in the past, it is true today. No other cause of disease has a chance to take a foothold. Inflammation troubles have become so dominant that no other process may need to be considered. The cause of this inflammation is chemical toxicity." [4]

Many health experts suggest that you detoxify your body. In other words, rid your body of all the toxins that are either making certain organs work harder, or not work at all. When your organs aren't doing their job, your immune system may take over to rid your body of all the chemical toxicity.

One of the best ways of detoxify your body is by drinking TriVita's Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™. Nopalea™ is derived from the Nopal cactus, a desert superfruit that is loaded with betalains, powerful and formerly rare antioxidants. Betalains are known as a natural and very powerful anti-inflammatory nutrient, one that fights inflammation and thus, helps to relieve chronic pain that is caused by inflammation.

For thousands of years, the people of the Sonoran Desert have tapped into the power of its native healing plants. Now with Nopalea™, you can too.

Stop the pain and help fight inflammation with Nopalea™. Don't take a man-made drug, like Celebrex, to fight something that is not man-made, but rather caused naturally within your body. Don't risk damaging other parts of your body, but rather protect the most complex design at a cellular level.

Pain Relief - 1014

Of all the pain causing disorders, joint pain is the most common problem people face as they grow older. A recent report estimates that 21% of the adult population is affected by some form of joint-related pain. And that number is expected to rise even higher as baby boomers age, so by 2030, almost 67 million people will suffer from joint problems.

What can be done to relieve pain within the joints?

First off, we need to understand joint pain and some causes of joint pain. Joints which bear the most weight are mostly affected, like the knees, hips and spine.

Only as an example, let's focus on the knee. If you suffer from knee pain, you're not alone. According to the Mayo Clinic website, "almost one in three Americans older than age 45 reports some type of knee pain, and it's a common reason that people visit their doctors or the emergency room." [1]

There is a lot of information on the Mayo Clinic website (see links below), and since I'm not a medical professional, I can only quote the information they have posted. With that said, here is some information regarding knee pain symptoms:

"A knee injury can affect any of the ligaments, tendons or fluid-filled sacs (bursae) that surround your knee joint as well as the bones, cartilage and ligaments that form the joint itself. Because of the knee's complexity, the number of structures involved, the amount of use it gets over a lifetime, and the range of injuries and diseases that can cause knee pain, the signs and symptoms of knee problems can vary widely." [2]

Joint pain, not just in the knee, can be due to a variety of reasons. Age is the primary cause of arthritis, but other risk factors are obesity, heredity, injury such as a fracture, or athletes who overuse their joints. These factors are often associated with osteoarthritis.

Joint pain can also be caused by inflammation. Many of you have probably heard the term inflammation many times before. When you joint becomes inflammed, it causes severe pain, and limits your joints range of motion. Inflammed joints, according to some health care professionals, are the main reason people experience so much pain. What is inflammation and how does it relate to joint pain? And how do we get pain relief from that inflammatiom?

Inflammation is a process in which the body's white blood cells and chemicals help protect us from infection and foreign substances such as bacteria and viruses.

"When inflammation occurs, chemicals from the body are released into the blood or affected tissues. This release of chemicals increases the blood flow to the area of injury or infection and may result in redness and warmth. Some of the chemicals cause a leak of fluid into the tissues, resulting in swelling. This process may stimulate nerves and cause pain." [3]

"Increased blood flow and release of these chemicals attract white blood cells to the sites of inflammation. The increased number of cells and inflammatory substances within the joint can cause irritation, wearing down of cartilage (cushions at the end of bones) and swelling of the joint lining (synovium)." [3]

Again, I'm not a doctor or medical professional, but it seems to me that if we fight inflammation, the cause of musch joint pain, we may not suffer from joint pain. So, in my opinion, to get pain relief that lasts, we should fight the source of that pain, and what better way to do that that with TriVita's Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™.

Nopalea's betalains and other anti-inflammatory ingredients work directly on the fluid surrounding your cells. There, they draw off the toxins and excess water to reduce inflammation and rebalance the cellular environment.

Nopalea will help you fight inflammation and give you the pain relief you may be looking for. If inflammation is the source of your pain, Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™ is the solution.

Pain Relief FAQ (pt3)

As we conclude, I think the last question on the most frequently asked questions list, regarding TriVita's Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™ is probably the most important of all. As mentioned in my previous two posts (where we covered the sugar, salt and iron content of Nopalea, and the compatibility of prescription medications) questions always arise when it comes to new health and wellness products. This is not unique to Nopalea!

Mr. Brazos Minshew, Chief Science Officer for TriVita, writes a Weekly Wellness Report. In the latest report, he wrote about the top three questions asked regarding Nopalea™. This is the third most frequently asked question:

How much Nopalea can I take in a day?

"The label recommends one to three ounces daily. This is based on minimum amounts in otherwise healthy people. However, the greater the level of your inflammation, the more anti-inflammatory strategies you will need. That makes sense, doesn't it? You wouldn't want to quench a forest fire with a single bucket of water!" [1]

Endobronchial inflammation, the main cause of asthma, is one such disease that is treated with more than one anti-inflammatory strategy. According to an article published by Pub Med, the writer mentions the many different strategies one can use to treat asthma, and provide pain relief. However, and this is just my opinion, if we can prevent the inflammation, by using a product like Nopalea, we would not have to treat the disease. As a matter of fact, the article even mentions prevention. "Patients must be educated to increase their understanding of the benefits of preventive rather than symptomatic forms of treatment for this (asthma) chronic disease." [2]

To me, preventative medicine makes more sense, and if Nopalea can do one-half of what has been scientifically proven, many individuals will all be able to live more healthy and active lives. If you're looking for pain relief

Mr. Minshew continues by writing, "one member was experiencing a flare-up of a rheumatoid disorder. She had taken many remedies - prescription and non-prescription - and had seen chiropractors, acupuncturists and massage therapists. She had been in an unbroken cycle of pain for 18 months. She took additional ounces daily and broke the cycle of inflammation and pain in about three weeks. She continues to take it daily with no known adverse effects. And she is pain free."

"Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a long-term disease that leads to inflammation of the joints and surrounding tissues. It can also affect other organs. The cause of RA is unknown. It is considered an autoimmune disease. The body's immune system normally fights off foreign substances, like viruses. But in an autoimmune disease, the immune system confuses healthy tissue for foreign substances. As a result, the body attacks itself." [3]

Again, if Nopalea™ fights inflammation, and can help you get some much needed pain relief (two of its claims), you may be able to prevent RA before it attacks.

According to TriVita and Mr. Minshew, "in the early pilot trials of Nopalea we gave our test subjects 16 ounces daily. Not only did they not experience any known negative effects, their blood work universally improved."

So, here is the conclusion to the three most frequently asked questions regarding TriVita's Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™:

"So many of the maladies we suffer from today are related to inflammation. Nopalea contains Betalains; Betalains quench inflammation. Testimonials from around North America report amazing improvement in well-being with Nopalea. Science from around the world details the astounding health benefits from Betalains found in the Nopal cactus. Both scientific and empirical reports tell us that Nopalea is safe and effective in promoting wellness. Enjoy Nopalea often. I promise: we won't run out!" [1]

If inflammation is the problem - Nopalea™ may be the solution. If pain relief is your quest - Nopalea may be the solution.

Pain Relief FAQ (pt2)

As I mentioned in my previous post, when it comes any new health and wellness product there are always questions about why, when and how to use it. Sometimes there are even concerns regarding the product, which leads to the second most frequently asked question about Sonoran Bloom Nopalea,™ TriVita's wonderful anti-inflammatory and pain relief product.

Will Nopalea interfere with my medications?

According to TriVita's latest Weekly Wellness Report, Mr. Brazos Minshew, Chief Science Officer for TriVita, has this to say about the interference of Nopalea with prescription drug medications:

"Your physician and pharmacist know you best - ask them! We will say this: With over 200 papers published on the benefits of the Nopal cactus superfruit in human health, we have not found even one negative reaction or drug interaction. The only caution we discovered concerns the blood-thinner warfarin (Coumadin)." [1]

"Warfarin is an anticoagulant. It is used to decrease the clotting ability of the blood and to help prevent harmful clots from forming in the blood vessels. It is often used to prevent or treat deep venous thrombosis, a condition in which harmful blood clots form in the blood vessels of the legs. These blood clots can travel to the lungs and cause a condition called pulmonary embolism. Warfarin is also used to prevent or treat blood clots that are caused by certain heart conditions or open-heart surgery." [2]

If you take warfarin you need to speak with your pharmacist. Nopalea is a fruit juice. In rare instances, people on warfarin will be restricted from consuming fruit juices for a short time while their medication stabilizes. Only your physician and pharmacist know if you should be restricted from fruit juices at this time, so ask them before you take it. But TriVita has not found a single instance of drug interaction in the medical literature; Nopalea should be very safe, especially if you're drinking it because you're looking for pain relief that is caused by chronic inflammation.

Here are some warnings about Warfarin. These are taken from the Mayo Clinic website:

"Warfarin, especially if taken incorrectly, increases your risk of dangerous bleeding. Warfarin also can interact badly with some foods, prescription medicines and over-the-counter supplements. If you accidentally cut yourself while taking warfarin, you may bleed heavily. You're more likely to have bleeding problems if you're older than 75 or take other medications that can further increase your bleeding risk." [3]

While I did not find anything regarding a dangerous interaction between warfarin and Nopalea, I'll have to take TriVita's word on what they have found. I did see where cranberry juice and cranberries can have an affect on it. "Consumption of cranberries or cranberry juice can affect the way warfarin works and can increase your risk of bleeding. While an occasional glass of cranberry juice is unlikely to injure you, you should avoid drinking it regularly." [3]

Before taking any health and wellness supplement, talk to your doctor, especially if you're taking prescription medications. If you're suffering from inflammation, and looking for natural pain relief ask your doctor if Nopalea can help.

Pain Relief FAQ

As with any new health and wellness product, there are always questions about why, when and how to use it. The more popular the product, the more frequently the questions are repeated. This is the case with TriVita's newest product, Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™.

Within TriVita's latest Weekly Wellness Report, Mr. Brazos Minshew, Chief Science Officer for TriVita, attempts to answer some of the more common questions about Nopalea™, TriVita's wonderful anti-inflammatory and pain relief product.

The most frequently asked questions are too important not to dedicate an individual post for each question. Because of the importance of these questions, I'll break them down into three separate articles and then try to find some research, or case studies, if applicable, to back up what Mr. Minshew has to say. I may also leave you with a thought provoking question, something for you to ponder.

How much sugar, salt and iron are in Nopalea?

"Nopalea™ contains NO ADDED SUGAR. It is naturally sweet. Yet it is still low-calorie and low-carbohydrate. Interestingly, the calories and carbohydrates will change from batch to batch depending on the harvest. Nopalea is "wildcrafted," meaning that Nopalea is not cultivated, and no fertilizers, pesticides or chemicals of any kind are ever used - ever! It is harvested from the Sonoran Desert by natives just as it has been for thousands of years. Since it is not cultivated, the concentration of sugars and minerals in the plant change depending on how much rain we have that year. The label will accurately reflect the concentration of constituents for that harvest." [1]

When it comes to products that have been wildcrafted, there are strict guidelines that must be followed. According to Wikipedia, "in the United States of America, wildcrafted plants are regulated by the Organic Food Production Act of 1990. Harvesters must designate the area they are harvesting and provide a three-year history of the area that shows no prohibited substances have been applied there. A plan for harvesting must show that the harvest will sustain the wild crop. No prohibited substances can be added by processors." [2]

So as you can see by these strict guidelines, you can be assured that Nopalea is truly an all natural organic pain relief product.

Mr. Minshew says that in providing the proper nutritional information to the consumer, Nopalea™ does present a challenge, and he continues his discussion by saying, "Nopalea™ is the first product of its kind. Therefore, no "standards" data existed before we created them. So, label changes happen because we created the testing standards to accurately measure the rare and powerful constituents of Nopalea." [1]

As mentioned previously, Nopalea™ comes from the nopal cactus that is found in the Sonoran Desert, located in the southwestern United States, and the northwestern parts of Mexico. Some historians have said that the ancient Mexican cultures, living in the high mountain volcanic regions, originally adopted the Nopal prickly pear cactus as a healing food, for pain relief, and treasured this high mountain variety, relegating Nopal cactus as the supreme healing plant and food among its kings and warriors.

I'm not sure if that statement is correct, but if you search Google for Sonoran Bloom Nopalea, this is the type of information you will find, and nothing about other products created using the nopal cactus. As we all know, if there was another product, you would find it on the web by searching Google. So judge for your self! Is Nopalea™ a one of a kind product?

Pain Relief

Nopalea™ (No--pah lay' uh) blends antioxidant-rich Nopal cactus superfruit with naturally sweet Agave nectar to bring you a deliciously unique concentrated wellness drink. Harnessing the power of betalains, a rare and powerful class of antioxidants that flourishes in the Nopal fruit, Nopalea delivers scientifically proven health benefits.

Betalains are the pigments that give the Nopal cactus fruit its vibrant pink color. But that's just the beginning. They're also natural antioxidants—and they're only found in a few of the world's plants.

The Nopal fruit isn't just included in this small group of special plants, it actually leads the group by containing one of the highest amounts of betalains in all of nature.

When you drink Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™, you take these betalains into your system, where they begin to restore your vitality on a cellular level. By helping the body reduce the toxins surrounding your cells and enabling essential nutrients to reach each cell, the betalains in Nopalea can reduce the inflammation, and supply pain relief, in your body that leads to disease.

Scientific research shows that betalains help to:

• Reduces the risk of blood clots—betalains protect the thin lining of your blood vessels; this helps reduce the inflammation that makes your blood sticky and leads to clots.[1]
• Reduces bad cholesterol—betalains strongly reduce oxidized LDL cholesterol.[2]
• Protects cells from toxins—betalains protect many types of cells, especially brain cells, from toxins known to trigger tumors.]3]
• Protects your liver—betalains provide significant protection from toxins that directly affect your liver.[4]

Nopalea uses only the freshest Nopal cactus fruit and preserves its antioxidant potency in our state-of-the-art facility. We carefully harvest the fruit using sustainable wildcrafting techniques that have been practiced in the Sonoran Desert for thousands of years.

Using sustainable wildcrafting techniques learned from native Sonoran ancestors, Nopalea™ takes only what's needed from the extraordinary Nopal cactus. TriVita leaves most of the fruit on the plant to nourish the desert animals and ensure an abundant crop for future harvests. It's their way of giving back, respecting the cycle of life and celebrating the harvest season.

Nopalea is a natural, low-calorie concentrated wellness drink that helps you live a healthier life and give you pain relief. Drink Nopalea™ daily to help:

• Protect against premature aging
• Reduce inflammation
• Promote optimal cellular health
• Detoxify the body

For thousands of years, the people of the Sonoran Desert have tapped into the power of its native healing plants. Now with Nopalea™, you can too.

Like all TriVita products, Nopalea™ is created in accordance with our company's 10 Foundational Values. These Values ensure the quality of Nopalea™, which is made under the strictest quality controls in the nutritional supplement industry. All of the Nopalea™ manufacturing and laboratory processes meet or exceed the most current Good Manufacturing Practices, as published by the Food and Drug Administration.

Sonoran Bloom is destined to become one of the top selling products for TriVita.

Some typical leads prices are listed below:

Lead pricing:

200 Leads - $260

How much money have you spent, or are you willing to spend, on building your Arbonne™ business? Hundreds, or perhaps even thousands of dollars? Before you spend a dime on worthless leads, why not take a look at buying customers instead of leads. Customers that are already buying products. Yes folks, there is a way to buy customers and NOT leads.

I don't buy leads. I buy customers. They cost $50 each. Half of what the results of buying leads conversion cost without all the time spent. I don't have to make any calls. I don't get rejected. I do not have good telemarketing skills. I don't need them. And when I buy customers, they appear in my downline with out any effort on my part.

And the 10% of my downline that are distributors do the same thing. Man-O-Man we are happy buying customers not leads!

Arbonne Leads | 1121

Arbonne™ is a quality company that produces products and provides income opportunities to the general public. To have a business opportunity with them would be a good idea providing the company had an exceptional prospecting plan in place. The last thing any new representative needs is ending up with the sole responsibility of building a business through the process of buying Arbonne leads.

People join Arbonne™, or any other MLM or Network Marketing Company, with the hopes and dreams of being able to create an additional income stream. Most individuals that join these companies pour their hearts and souls into their new business. Unfortunately, shortly thereafter, they find out that they have to sell the products (become a salesperson) to others and also convince people to join their organization (become a recruiter).

The new Arbonne™ "business person" also finds out that they have to resort to purchasing leads. many of these Arbonne leads have been called many times and don't want to hear from someone else about another MLM opportunity and/or product. The leads that have been purchased are just plain tired of the phone calls, and they have been sold over and over again by the leads companies. Think about it! If a lead was so good why would the lead companies sell them for peanuts? Arbonne Leads can be purchased for less than a penny if they are purchased in large quantities. The sad fact is, these leads have been pretty much picked over, but even if they aren't, you still have to call them and sell them on your business.

Personally, I have called hundreds of leads, and I don't want to call leads anymore..

I don't like calling people and trying to sell them to come into my business. That's why I buy customers and not leads. I refuse to purchase another lead because I don't like calling these people. I have done it and don't like it! I have had people hang up me, curse at me, and I had to listen to people tell me that they wish they could get off the list that is being sold. So, if you are new to Arbonne, and are considering buying leads, the list of leads you are getting are not quality names but names that has a history of being sold over and over again to unsuspecting people who are trying to build a business.

I get business proposals all the time from individuals looking for me to invest in their business, or just to look at their business. Sometimes they are looking for me to give them feedback. With all do respect, what they are really looking for is for me to read their information, or watch their business presentation, and get excited about their business, with the hopes of me Contacting their organization. That usually DOES NOT work!

WHY?

Most of the opportunities are the same old thing, a MLM or Network Marketing opportunity that they have received from an associate that they want me to evaluate and give them my opinion. The bottom line is they are looking for an investment from me. When I look at them I see the same common thread running through each and every one of them. They are opportunities that require buying massive amounts of leads and lots of phone work. When I see this I stay away, because I like I said before, I don't want to call anyone and try to convince them to join a business that I know will not produce the promises that were made.

NOW THE GOOD NEWS - The one that got my attention!

Although I read the majority of business proposals, it's only out of courtesy. I NEVER recommend a business opportunity, not until I got one that got my attention. This one was different! It had a totally unique business model. It was a Nutraceutical Company that had a whole new approach to the MLM and Network Marketing Industry. I looked at the products and saw that they were powerful and promoted wellness. Although many other opportunities promoted wellness, this company was unique. They promoted Wellness and Wealth simultaneously.

As I kept reading I saw what really triggered my mind, and made me realize that this is a totally different approach. I saw their was no other MLM company that had anything like it. As I did my due-diligence, I could not find anything like this on the Internet, except the company proposed in the plan. What was this unique concept? They promoted buying customers, NOT leads!

Buy Customers not leads..

As I kept reading and learning, I found out that this company has the unique ability to sell direct to the consumer and then once the consumer buys the product they sell the customer to Business Affiliates. I searched the web site and read everything that I could trying to find out if I was missing something, or if my perception of this company was wrong. I never heard about buying customers and so I wasn't sure that I was reading it correctly.

I called several people to verify the information. I talked to a person who had been doing it for a while and he confirmed my findings. I do not have make phone calls to leads who don't want to be called. All I do is purchase the customer from the company and get the commissions.

I keep reading and trying to find the flaws in the system, but none were found. I went to a meeting at http://homebusiness.healthfulchoice.com and listened to Tom Prendergast talk about how he has gotten increased results every month for seven years, even though he was not working the business. In other words, his check had gone up every single month since he started, and all he had to do was buy customers.

I thought I have heard it all, but not this time. This is a new innovation to me, even though it has been around for almost ten years. As this catches on, I believe it will drive other MLM or Network Marketing Companies wild because they simply can't compete. I also believe that this is going to pull top producers away from their current MLM companies. I have heard many top producers are already looking at this business model and have plans to leave their existing companies. Why? The majority of network marketers DO NOT like making unnecessary phone calls. With this business model, you can never lose your customers since they are customers and not someone's downline. This makes your business stable and solid.

So, what does this have to do with Arbonne™? Absolutely nothing! But if you were considering Contacting Arbonne, you may want to take a look at The Home Business Marketing Group first. To do so, go to http://homebusiness.healthfulchoice.com and sign in. You will receive an invitation to the meetings. If you are still interested after attending the meeting, feel free to contact me. If I don't answer please leave a message and I will get back to you ASAP.

Arbonne™ - The Network Marketing Plan

Network marketing as is a distribution system, or form of marketing, which channels goods or services from the manufacturer to the consumer through a "network" of independent distributors or Consultants. It's a wonderfully effective system that cuts out the "middleman" found in most industries.

Traditional marketing moves products from the manufacturer to wholesalers, warehousers, shippers, advertisers and retailers before ever reaching the consumer. In network marketing, all of these "middlemen," including the advertisers, are replaced with independent distributors who distribute the same products throughout their own network of consumers. This way, the large profit that would normally go to the wholesalers, warehousers, shippers, advertisers and retailers goes to the independent distributors and those who help train them.

Leading traditional retailers are known to spend 25-30% of every sales dollar on advertising, media and other promotions, while network marketing uses those same dollars to reward individuals for "word-of-mouth" promotion. Because network marketing relies on developing and keeping trusted relationships, the product quality and service is often much higher than standard retail brands. After all, if you are going to personally recommend a product to a friend, you have to believe in it!

The vision of Arbonne™ is to provide skin care products unparalleled in quality and effectiveness developed in Switzerland more than 25 years ago when entrepreneur, Petter Mørck, together with a group of leading bio-chemists, biologists and herbalists, founded Arbonne™. These products, based on natural, botanical principles, are now shared throughout the world through Arbonne's network of Independent Consultants. Building on these same founding principles, Arbonne's product line has since grown to include both inner and outer health and beauty products that are pure, safe, beneficial!

The wonderful thing about Arbonne™ is that it's not just about great products, it's also about great people. The Arbonne family is made up of thousands of individuals working to make their dreams come true. Through sales incentives and rewards, travel opportunities, a generous SuccessPlan and great products, Arbonne™ offers a unique opportunity that can help make anyone's vision for the future a reality.

If you have a Arbonne™ business and are thinking about buying leads to promote your business, well, you may want to rethink that idea. You see, I have bought many leads, and spend thousands of dollars on those leads, but in all actuality, they were non-productive, expensive and I saw absolutely no ROI on my investments.

Here are some clear facts regarding leads and network marketing. Most MLM companies operate in the same manner. You may even know what I'm talking about! A lot of business leaders tell you to buy leads from them, or direct you to a web site that sells leads, to build your business? Well, let me ask you a question here. How much money have you spent, or are you willing to spend, on building your Arbonne business? Hundreds, or perhaps even thousands of dollars?

Are you sick of spending money on worthless leads? What if I told you there was a better and more exciting way to build your business? What if you could buy customers, instead of leads? Would that be a revolutionary approach to the same old problem that ALL network marketers face?

If you would like to learn more about buying customers, just fill in the contact form and come to our meetings on Saturday afternoons. You will learn the right approach to building your business on the net.

By the way, you can continue to use your Arbonne skin care products, just make money in an entirely new manner from now on!

To learn more, go to The Home Business Marketing Group.

If you are new to buying leads, heads up.

You will need to call hundreds of them to find one who is remotely interested. You need to have excellent telemarketing skills. You will need to take the abuse and rejection that you will receive from 90% of the people you call. You may be very good at telemarketing and rejection doesn't bother you.

What about your downline? Realize that your entire downline is not customers but distributors just like you. Are they all going to buy leads and do this too? Nope.

I don't buy leads. I buy customers. They cost $50 each. Half of what the results of buying leads conversion cost without all the time spent. I don't have to make any calls. I don't get rejected. I do not have good telemarketing skills. I don't need them. And when I buy customers, they appear in my downline with out any effort on my part.

And the 10% of my downline that are distributors do the same thing. Man-O-Man we are happy buying customers not leads!

Home Based Franchise Solutions

While doing some research on Google about home based franchise businesses, I stumbled upon an article about the advantages of a home based franchise. In the article I have found that a lot of business professionals believe that anybody looking to invest in a business should look for a professional franchise business. As I read further, the writer was talking about professional home based franchise businesses.

The article was pretty exciting because I think the best thing anyone can do for themselves is start a home based business. Since I'm pretty passionate about franchises I was excited to read the article.

Why a Home-Based Franchise Business?

Prospects looking at home-based opportunities need to consider the number of advantages and not pay attention to the disadvantages. One should not only look at the investment cost as a basis for making a decision, but what type of ROI one can receive. These types of business opportunities (home-based) should be assessed as per the same criteria as other franchise businesses (non-home based). While this category does offer the least amount of franchise choices, a home-based franchise can be just as exciting and rewarding as any dynamic retail or fast-food enterprise.

My research on Google about home based franchises. For the most part of my research I have found that if your considering a home based business, your best bet is going with a home based franchise.

Franchise System for the Business Professional

I was reading some posts in a forum on the Internet about franchises, and which franchise systems seemed to be the most professional, the best, and the most affordable. I came across this one post and I had to reply to the writer. Below is an excerpt of my comments:

Lance, in your post, you mention that "the best categories for profitability seem to be service franchises, auto franchises and unique categories." I agree with that statement with one exception, finding qualified technicians. Finding skilled, well trained technicians, in the "information world" that seems to have enveloped us, is quite difficult. We all know that employees (especially skilled technicians) can make or break a business.

When spending money on a franchise system that could provide a professional business person with a nice income, I'm not sure service franchises, and/or auto franchises should be where the franchisee should spend their money. As a former auto/truck business owner of twenty-one years, I know how hard it is to find qualified technicians, one of the reasons I sold the business.

Although I did not own a franchise business, I was a sole-proprietor, I still know how fast the vehicles, machinery, and/or equipment is changing. So spending money on a franchise, and then finding individuals to repair the equipment, will not be an easy task, hence, my feeling about purchasing a franchise in the service industry.

I believe there is a better solution for business professionals looking for a franchise, a franchise where they do not have to spend their life savings. To learn more about an alternative to a franchise business that I'm talking about, go to a franchise solution.

Franchise - FAQ's

Franchises play an integral role in our lives and the American society in general. You're probably a frequent customer at the local Quizno's or Subway franchise. You may even know people who have found success through a franchise business. Perhaps you've even considered purchasing a franchise yourself. If so, you probably have some burning questions you haven't quite been able to find the answers for. You're not alone!

The current economy and society have brought new concerns to the surface about the franchise industry. Here are a couple of questions (along with my answers) that are asked quite frequently:

1. Should I own my own business before buying a franchise?

Some franchisers would prefer that you didn't, but I believe that it couldn't hurt. The franchisor's reason why they prefer you not to have had you own business is, because of bad habits that they'd have to spend time breaking, if your business was in the same industry. You'd have [management] styles that may not be compatible with theirs, and the normal and natural thing would be for you to always slip back into your comfort zone.

On the other hand, having experience working in any business gives you discipline. You understand how to work with customers, meet deadlines and take on responsibility as opposed to relying on your co-workers and your secretary in a big company. All in all, I would rather have someone who spent years in business, but it's a personal preference among franchisers.

Either way, a lot of franchisers realize that people who come out of training remember about 20 percent of it, and then they struggle for a while until they grasp the rest of it through practical experience in the [franchise] setting.

2. Would it be wise to cash out some equity from my house to invest in a franchise?

Given today's interest rates on home loans, I would say go for it. What do you have to loose? Franchises are modestly priced. Even though, I would be careful with any investment. However, there's really no difference between investing in a franchise and investing in a stock. If you invest in a stable, secure franchise (stock) with a great track record and good performance, there's not a lot of risk.

On the other hand, if you invest in a franchise based on a trend or fad, or one that you don't know a lot about and haven't done your research on, then I would say no. I wouldn't invest a dime. But remember, that's just an investment decision. Most people use the equity in their homes because it's usually their major asset and they can borrow against it. Make sure whatever you're investing in is a rational investment. One more piece of advise, do not jump into something just because the salesman sold you on it.

Choose a Professional Franchise Business for Your Second Job

Facing some expenses in the future? Need a new car? Do you have a son or daughter going off to college? Want a new house? If you're facing some future expenses, why not start your own business? That's what I would recommend before I went out to get a second job. WHY? You can make a lot more money owning a business than working for someone.

Typically, there are many reasons why people choose to take on the challenge and responsibility of a second job rather than start their own business. People rarely take on a second job for pleasure. However, many people considering a second job hardly ever think about other options, like starting a home business, or buying a professional franchise business. A home business or a professional franchise business offers three benefits that the typical second jobs does not.

The first benefit that a home business or professional franchise business offers, over most of the second jobs available, is flexibility. A home business or a franchise makes it easier to work around your primary job and family commitments. There are very few second jobs that offer the flexibility of a home business. A home business can literally be run when and where you like. In fact, you could even work your home business of franchise business during your lunch hour. Unlike a second job, it's easier to get time off for holidays and vacations when you're the boss.

The second benefit of a home business or professional business franchise is you get to choose what that business is. You can take advantage of your own interests, skills, and God given talents, which is not something most second jobs offer. The likelihood of finding a second job that fits your gifts and your schedule is probably somewhere between slim and not available. The Internet can be a tremendous resource of information on every imaginable franchise, home business, or topic of interest; just do a search on Google. I'm confident you can find your niche on Google!

Finally, a home business or professional franchise business offers on-the-job training. With a plethora of web conferencing systems, it's easy to get training from a variety of experts in any field. No matter what you decide, there is a wealth of information on the Internet. Go to Google, and do a search. It can help you find the right professional franchise business so you can make your second job, a home business, both profitable and rewarding.

Remember, if you're looking to make extra money, look for a professional franchise business, one you can work from the comforts of your own home.

A Low Cost Franchise Business

Owning a franchise business takes hard work. Are you up to putting forth the effort it takes? Owning a franchise business can also take a lot of money, although it doesn't have to. There are plenty of low cost franchise businesses available, just search Google.

Back to putting forth the effort, even if you decide on a low cost business franchise, you will still have to put forth the effort to make it work. Running a business takes time, and effort to become prosperous, but like I said before, it doesn't have to take your life savings. A low cost franchise business may be an option for you.

I've mentioned this before in my posts because not everyone has the money to purchase a McDonald's, Wendy's or Burger King. If you're like the majority of people, and you want to own a franchise business, take a look at a low cost franchise business. Go to Google, and type in, low cost franchise, and see what is available, you just may be surprised.

If you don't find what you are looking for, check out the information at low cost franchise business by clicking on the link. If you have any questions after checking it out, you can contact me for additional information. But remember, whether you choose a traditional franchise business, or a low cost franchise business, it still takes hard work to be prosperous. If you're up to the task, do your due-diligence.

A Franchise Solution holds a great reputation for the best online work at home franchise business information available on Google.

Franchise Solution - Get to Know the Franchisor

If you are at all serious about owning a franchise business, make sure you get to know the franchisor. Invest time in getting to know all there is about the franchisor. How did he/she get started? What made him/her decide on franchising their business? What's the history of the franchise? Learn all you can about the franchisor, by asking questions, listening, and taking notes.

For your franchise to prosper, you need to be happy with not only the industry you'll be working in but also the people you will be working with. Remember, you'll be promoting and/or selling their name, their brand. The investment will be your own, but the name belongs to the franchisor; you're paying to market their products and/or services.

After you gather your information about the franchisor, review it. Ask questions to yourself, like is this the person, the people, or the organization I want to invest my money with? Are they the ones I really want to work closely with? Remember, your franchise business is almost like a marriage, between you and franchisor. Be sure this is where you want to invest you time and money.

Industrial Wastewater Recycling

Wastewater Recycling

A Global Water Crisis

"There is a water crisis today. But the crisis is not about having too little water to satisfy our needs. It is a crisis of managing water so badly that billions of people - and the environment - suffer badly." World Water Vision Report [1]

So what can we as individuals do to prevent this crisis from happening? Conserve water. Cut back on watering our lawns. Shorten the time we're in the shower. Make sure you have a full load before washing your clothes. I know, these all sound like trivial items within the scope of a global problem, however, we still need to do our part. And facilities that are using way more water than the average home, they also have to do their part.

There are thousands of manufacturing plants worldwide. The average industrial plant wastes millions of dollars in operating costs for water, wastewater discharge, and water treatment chemicals. Many of these plants use millions of gallons of water per year, and some even millions of gallons per month. They can do their part by recycling their wastewater, or treating their wastewater so it can be used over and over again.

A Solution to the Global Water Crisis

Enviro Solutions, Inc. (ESI) has developed an industrial wastewater recycling and/or treatment system, Enviro II, that integrates "the equipment and chemicals needed to treat industrial water at any point in the plant. Every Enviro II recycling solution is uniquely designed to meet the needs of the plant into which it is installed and reduce operating costs." [2]

"ESI is an engineering company whose principals have nearly 100 years experience in the water treatment industry. We reduce the combined costs of acquiring, treating, heating, cooling, and discharging water to the environment. We are based in the USA, but our products are easily adapted for use worldwide." [2]

Only Enviro Solutions, Inc. "provides a synergistic solution using select equipment and 'green' chemistry to positively impact a plant's operating costs. Custom Enviro II solutions can save from 50% to 90% of your water related costs by reducing a portion of these costs. This could mean saving your enterprise many thousands of dollars per year." [2]

If you own a manufacturing plant, or know someone that does, please do you part and tell them about the Enviro II wastewater recycling and/or wastewater treatment system. ESI can customize a system to fit any plants needs, and help them save millions of dollars and help preserve our precious water supply.

"Water should be recognized as a great priority. One of the main objectives of the World Water Council is to increase awareness of the water issue. Decision-makers at all levels must be implicated. One of the Millennium Development Goals is to halve, by 2015, the proportion of people without sustainable access to safe drinking water and sanitation."[1]

Do you part to see that the goal of the World Water Council is reached. If you own a manufacturing plant, start recycling your wastewater today. If you use water at home, stop wasting water. Everyone of us has to do his or her part.

Industrial Wastewater Treatment

Owners of industrial manufacturing plants worldwide should take notice of this alarming statement:

"Water - the essential ingredient for life on this planet is becoming an increasingly scarce resource. According to the World Bank and World Health Organization, 2 billion people lack access to clean water and 1 billion people do not have enough to even meet their daily needs."

"Every day an increasing amount of pollution seeps into rivers and lakes making them toxic to humans, and underground aquifers, our most significant sources of water, are being depleted at an alarming rate."[1]

According to experts, the number one reason the water supplies are being polluted is because manufacturing facilities are dumping their wastewater into the environment. This is a worldwide problem because the government of many countries have little or no authority over what can and is being dumped into the environment.

That's why I'm calling on all manufacturing plants to take action and do something before it's too late. Not only does this pollute fresh water supplies, it may be costing companies hundreds of thousands of dollars per year. So what is a better alternative, recycle industrial wastewater.

Yes, that's correct, manufacturing facilities can use industrial wastewater treatment processes, and recycle it to be used over and over, saving a company hundreds of thousands of dollars in water expense.

If you own a manufacturing plant, or know someone that does, contact Enviro Solutions, Inc. to see how that plant can save money, and help protect our environment.

Industrial Wastewater Recycling

Is a water shortage looming just over the horizon? According to an article written in December 1999, entitled "Global Water Shortage Looms In New Century", we are on the verge of a major global water shortage.

A quote from the article states "The World Bank reports that 80 countries now have water shortages that threaten health and economies while 40 percent of the world - more than 2 billion people - have no access to clean water or sanitation."[1]

I realize this article may have been written just a little over ten years ago, so we'll fast forward to the year 2009 and the UN summit for climate change that took place in Copenhagen, Denmark. One statement says, "global pressure on freshwater resources is increasing, mainly through changes in global population and income levels, which have led to an increase in demand for water intensive products such as meat, sugar and cotton." [2]

There are many differing thoughts and opinions with regards to climate change; however, the facts remain that "increasing population, industry, economic growth and urbanization put additional stress on the provision of clean water from dwindling reserves."[2] These factual statements cannot and should not be overlooked. We, as individuals should be doing our part to conserve water, or suggest to manufacturing that recycling wastewater is a viable option to the conservation of fresh water.

I know many manufacturing plants are looking for ways to save money while at the same time recycle or reuse there commodities. Wastewater recycling and/or wastewater treatment, with the proper technology and equipment, can save hundreds of thousands of dollars a year, not to mention the preservation of water.

A new company, Enviro Solutions, Inc. (ESI), is on mission to help manufacturing plants reduce water consumption, through "green" wastewater recycling, wastewater treatment, and heat recycling. ESI has almost one hundred years of water recycling and wastewater treatment experience. ESI is led by found and CEO, CB Brown, which is based in Lenoir, TN. ESI is doing their part, not only to help you recycle wastewater, but also to help your company save money.

"The socio-economic implications of a severe global water shortage are huge and are closer than ever to becoming a reality. Never mind peak oil, peak water could prove even more devastating to the world and conflicts over resources could even lead to wars being fought."[2]

Just a little over ten years ago many predicted a severe global water shortage. Now, in 2010, we are closer than you think to the prediction coming to fruition. It's time for ALL industrial manufacturing plants to rise up and do their part to help prevent a catastrophic global water shortage. The time is NOW - to recycle your companies wastewater, to help prevent a water shortage, and to add to your companies bottom line. Yes, recycling wastewater can save your company a lot of money, and help prevent a global catastrophe.

Industrial Wastewater Recycling

Industrial Water Recycling

Most industrial water recycling companies provide either equipment or chemicals. Rarely will you find a company that provides both the equipment and the chemical technology to treat wastewater.

According to the Enviro Solutions, Inc. web site, "water treatment chemical manufacturers sell chemicals and provide services for steam boilers, cooling towers, and treating process wastewater. They cannot afford to provide innovative solutions that reduce chemical sales and conserve water."

On the other hand, "water treatment equipment manufacturers sell and service devices that treat water for steam boilers, cooling towers, and wastewater applications. They do not get involved in the chemistry needed for pre and post treatment of water. Their business is to sell equipment."

Every industrial plant can suffer technically and economically because of this disparity. Enviro Solutions offers treatment and recycling solutions that consider every part of industrial water usage. Being fully integrated, they are able to supply engineering, equipment, chemicals, operating procedures and services required to ensure reliable water quality for the long term. It's their aim to conserve water in every way possible, thus reducing the amount of additional water introduced into a plant.

Enviro Solutions claims that it's possible to reduce water loss to evaporation, spillage, and sludge disposal. Their state-of-the-art equipment, engineered to fit your industrial water recycling needs, is high quality and adaptable to meet strict government water recycling standards.

Industrial Water Treatment

Industrial waste water treatment can be divided into three categories; boiler water treatment, cooling water treatment, and wastewater treatment. According to Wikipedia, "water treatment is used to optimize most water-based industrial processes, such as: heating, cooling, processing, cleaning, and rinsing, so that operating costs and risks are reduced."

"Poor water treatment lets water interact with the surfaces of pipes and vessels which contain it. Steam boilers can scale up or corrode, and these deposits will mean more fuel is needed to heat the same amount of water. Cooling towers can also scale up and corrode, but left untreated, the warm, dirty water they can contain will encourage bacteria to grow, and Legionnaires' Disease can be the fatal consequence."

"Furthermore, water treatment is used to improve the quality of water contacting the manufactured product e.g. semiconductors, and/or can be part of the product e.g. beverages, pharmaceuticals, etc. In these instances, poor water treatment can cause defective products. Domestic water can become unsafe to drink if proper hygiene measures are neglected." [1]

It is my belief that with the proper industrial water treatment, scaling, corrosion, and deposits can be highly reduced, if not totally eliminated. However, there are some industrial water treatment processes that may not produce the suggested results. As a matter of fact, some processes may increase the operating costs rather than decrease operating costs. If the industrial water treatment system/process you're using is not reducing your operating costs, it may be time to look at another process.

The average industrial plant wastes millions of dollars in operating costs for water, wastewater discharge, and water treatment chemicals. There's only one company that provides a synergistic solution using select equipment and 'green' chemistry to positively impact a plant's operating costs, and that's Enviro Solutions, Inc. Their custom Enviro II solutions can save from 50% to 90% of your water related costs by reducing a portion of these costs. This could translate into saving your enterprise many thousands of dollars per year.

Testimonial found on the Internet:

Oh my goodness people!!!!! Have you truly tried any other products than Oil of olay. You are missing the point of Arbonne products. The first thing you notice is they have little to no sent which means they arent synthetic or perfumed. In ten years of Spa business, the only products that have come close to performing in the same class as Arbonne cost double what you pay for Arbonne. You have to break things down sometimes. Think about the products you buy at the stores; You are paying for Mass production, Marketing, Models, Packaging, Distribution, Sales Staff, and then the product.

The company is proud to state that all the Arbonne™ products are produced with the best natural ingredients such as herbs ad fruits.

The Arbonne™ family is made up of thousands of individuals working to make their dreams come true. Through sales incentives and rewards, travel opportunities, a generous Success Plan and great products, Arbonne offers a unique opportunity that can help make your vision for the future a reality.

There are two basic ways in which an Arbonne™ Independent Consultant can earn compensation:
1. Through retail profit on sales of products purchased at discounted prices from the Company.
2. Through overrides and bonuses paid on a Consultant's product sales volume and the sales volume of other Consultants on their team ..also known as their downline.

As with any other sales opportunity, the compensation earned by Arbonne™ Independent Consultants varies significantly. The cost to become a Consultant is very low and people become Consultants for various reasons. Most notably, people become Consultants because it allows them to purchase our products at the lowest possible price. Others join to earn extra part-time income, while others join on a full-time, professional basis.

Generating meaningful compensation as an Arbonne™ Independent Consultant requires considerable time, effort and commitment. This is not a get-rich-quick program and there are no guarantees of financial success. It is an opportunity that is shared by thousands who have chosen to embrace the Arbonne™ products and/or business. The success or failure of each Arbonne™ Independent Consultant, like any other independent business, depends on each Independent Consultant's own skills and personal effort. Arbonne™ is a product-driven company that strongly encourages people to try our products as customers before building a business.

You can become an Arbonne™ Consultant for only $29. That fee includes the start-up kit! With effort and enthusiasm, you can become financially stable. If you have the desire to realize your dreams and change your life, you can't find a better opportunity than Arbonne™!

Arbonne's compensation plan, the Arbonne™ SuccessPlan, is one of the most dynamic and generous in the network marketing industry. From your first great day in the Arbonne™ business, you can begin to earn money. Whether your goal is to develop a retail Client base, build and train an extensive network organization, or a combination of both, the Arbonne SuccessPlan offers you lucrative rewards.

Leadership skills determine the level of your success and the success of your team. Learn how to develop strong leadership skills and apply them to your Arbonne business, and watch your business grow.

Top network marketers promote buying leads to build a successful Arbonne business. According to many networkers, buying leads simply does not work. You need tremendous telemarketing skills to build your business through buying leads. Leads very rarely turn into reps. You will need to call many reps to find one that is remotely interested in your Arbonne business, not to mention your products.

I don't buy leads. I buy customers. They cost $50 each. Half of what the results of buying leads conversion cost without all the time spent. I don't have to make any calls. I don't get rejected. I do not have good telemarketing skills. I don't need them. And when I buy customers, they appear in my downline with out any effort on my part. And the 10% of my downline that are distributors do the same thing. Man-O-man we are happy buying customers not leads!

Send Out Cards Leads

Nearly every person, business, and service professional in your area can benefit from sending out cards. Churches, Manufacturers, retail stores, missionaries, consulting and law firms, car dealers, accountants, CPAs, financial professionals, dry cleaners, carpet cleaning companies, designers and graphic artists, doctors, freelancers, dentists, optometrists, orthodontists, chiropractors, massage therapists and any other health professional, contractors and many others are all clients for Send Out Cards® service. Send Out Cards® is a unique company, with a terrific pay plan, and great leadership.

If you own a larger company you can celebrate your employee's birthday, anniversaries, and employment anniversary. Smaller business and professionals can use their service to keep in touch with prospects, clients and some important vendors. Send Out Cards® is for all types of companies, and will get you results.

Send Out Cards® provides local businesses, professionals, and people with a systemized and automated way to keep in touch with family, loved ones, prospects, clients, referral partners, and employees. You can even join their company as an independent representative, and earn an income from working out of your home.

Send out cards® allows you to earn an income seven different ways. All you need is the desire, motivation, and discipline to work from home. The seven ways to earn an income are: Customer Direct Retail Profits, Retail Profits from Preferred Customers (Paid Monthly), Coaching Bonus From New Distributor Accounts (Paid Weekly), Coaching Bonus from New Distributor Accounts (Paid Weekly), Treat em Right Seminar Bonus (Paid Weekly), 7-level Volume Bonus paid on Greeting Cards Sold (Paid Monthly), and Leadership Volume Bonus paid on Greeting Cards Sold (Paid Monthly). Not only can you earn money by direct selling, but you can earn money by signing up and supporting other distributors.

The only thing I have seen wrong with this type of business model is most distributors go after new distributors and forget about having customers. Not having enough customers is usually the downfall of most multi-level marketing businesses here and abroad. If you don't have enough customers it's a recipe for disaster. Customers are the bloodline of any business, whether online or off, whether virtual or brick and mortar. So how can you get more customers so you business does not implode?

Purchasing leads and turning them into customers has been one of the most widely used processes. Asking all of your family and friends to buy from you is another popular means of getting customers. Although both avenues work, there are a couple of problems with doing business this way, first, your list will run out sooner or later, and second, you may run out of money trying to purchase enough leads to make it worth you while, to me, neither one of these methods sounds very intelligent. If buying leads doesn't work, is there are better way when your warm market dries up? I'm glad you asked that question!

Since buying leads does NOT work, what about buying customers? With a lead, you need to turn that lead into a customer, but when you buy a customer, that person is already buying a product or service. Now doesn't that make a little more sense? Well that's exactly what I do; I buy customers. NO MORE LEADS!

Send Out Cards is a great company, but what good is it if you don't have any customers. Maybe its time to buy some customers instead of wasting time chasing family and friends and/or wasting money on dead end leads. If you would like to learn more about buying customers, go to The Home Business Marketing Group.

Vemma Leads

Qualifying Vemma leads can be one of the most time consuming and cost-intensive parts of running a networking or MLM business. Buying the so-called "phone qualified leads" can be very expensive. So is there a better way to build a Vemma, Arbonne, Quixtar, Nu Skin, MonaVie, Big Planet, Uptrend2u, Send Out Cards, or 10-in-One-Vitamins business without buying leads? Yes! Buy customers instead of leads.

The Home Business Marketing Group has the unique approach of buying customers and growing your business through a large retail customer base. Those customers are already purchasing products; they are not leads. The concept of buying customers, not leads, ensures long term residual income for the life of the customer relationship.

The Home Business Marketing Group teaches delegation, not duplication, to build a large organization. The Home Business Marketing Group is the first off-shoot of The Home Business Marketing Group, architects of the marketing plan, now being implemented by The Home Business Marketing Group. Members of the Home Business Marketing Group work together for the good of the whole team. This synergistic approach is something you will never see in other MLM companies. Quite honestly, you will see the exact opposite, every members fighting over the same prospects.

Vemma® is a wonderful company with fantastic products, great leadership, and a generous compensation plan. Vemma® is a fantastic company and also has a tremendous leadership team. I'm sure I could look at all of the companies listed above and say the same thing about each one of them. I can also say the same thing about what their leaders, and top income earners say, buy leads, and duplicate what your sponsor does. The problem with that type of philosophy is not everyone is the same. How can the average person duplicate what a top recruiter can do? They can't! That's why the majority of MLM businesses fail. They teach duplication, and duplication does not work.

What does work is having an organization of top loaded with customers, not reps. What does work is delegation, not duplication. What does work is teamwork, not one person doing it all. Having enough customers to bring in revenue works; teaching delegation rather than duplication works; and working together as a team works. It's a proven fact, and I have seen it first hand.

The majority of MLM companies, like Vemma® are great. Their products, for the most part, are of the highest quality. Their leadership is usually the best found in the marketplace. But their teachings and training methods are old school and simply do not work.

Take the high-tech approach to building a large business through teamwork, delegation, and customers, and stop spending your time trying to convince the few interested leads, you may get, to take action and make a purchase. Customers already know what they want and are sold on your product. It makes good business sense to buy customers and stop buying leads. It truly is the ultimate way to build a business.

Send Out Cards Leads 731

Business opportunities are created when you have a product or service that fills a need in the market place. Send Out Cards fills a huge need:

American Greetings, a multi billion dollar greeting card company, conducted a study to find out the buying habits and needs of their consumers. They found that the average consumer buys 10 greeting cards per year but has a need for more than 70 greeting cards. The 2 primary reasons they don't buy 70+ cards per year is due to 1) inconvenience, and 2) They forget. Obviously, Send Out Cards has created solutions to those problems and built a distribution system that will educate people on how to use their system. You can be a part of that system, fill a consumer need and make big money.

Send Out Cards® offers a Ground Floor In-Home Opportunity. You can make money from your home by sending out cards and sharing this unique concept.

A testimonial about Send Out Cards is found on Google:

...This time I decided to join and watch, rather than jump in and promote. I sat back for six months to see how the company progressed, all the while watching how they implemented new technology. I've also put all the services they offer to the test.

I watched as they made adjustments to their program based on member feedback, something you rarely see in this industry. And finally, I watched their site transform into the professional presentation that it is today.

What I experienced, was the surprising effectiveness of their product, for BOTH personal use, and business use. This can be hard to find in today's "business opportunity" marketplace. And this is the main reason I am recommending SendOutCards to you today. The service will save you time. It will save you money. And when used correctly it will MAKE you money. Potentially serious money...

Send Out Cards® allows you to earn an income seven different ways. All that is required of you is the desire, motivation, and discipline to work from home. The seven ways to earn an income are: 1.) Customer Direct Retail Profits; 2.) Retail Profits from Preferred Customers (Paid Monthly); 3.) Coaching Bonus From New Distributor Accounts (Paid Weekly); 4;) Coaching Bonus from New Distributor Accounts (Paid Weekly); 5.) Treat em Right Seminar Bonus (Paid Weekly); 6.) 7-level Volume Bonus paid on Greeting Cards Sold (Paid Monthly); and 7.) Leadership Volume Bonus paid on Greeting Cards Sold (Paid Monthly).

Not only can you earn money by direct selling, but you can earn money by signing up and supporting other distributors.

If you are building a Send Out Cards® business, you can purchase real time leads. There are Lead Generation sources for Premium Surveyed Real Time Leads on the Internet, just Google Send Out Cards® Leads.

Some of the MLM Leads are fresh, responsive, and definitely interested in pursuing a Home Based Business. You can also find what the lead sources call "by far the hottest Business Opportunity Leads available anywhere!"

Real Time Leads provides the most advanced sorting options and features available in the industry. Many companies have Real Time, database interactive ordering systems, that are state of the art and allows their customers full access to every lead they have.

Leads cost about $1.50 to $2.00 depending how many you buy. I have also seen phone surveyed leads cost at or near $5.00. That is way too much money to pay for a lead.

I don't buy leads. I buy customers. They cost $50 each. Half of what the results of buying leads conversion cost without all the time spent. I don't have to make any calls. I don't get rejected. I do not have good telemarketing skills. I don't need them. And when I buy customers, they appear in my downline with out any effort on my part.

Quixtar Leads

Have you ever wondered - If there was a better way to build your Quixtar™ business than buying leads?

Have you had any success buying Quixtar Leads and trying to convince them to join you in your Quixtar™ business? Personally, I hate calling leads. I have discovered that buying customers instead of buying leads is a much better way to build a home business. I don't have the expense of buying leads and making long distance phone calls only to get rejected. Buying customers that are already purchasing the product is the only way I will do business now. You can go to http://homebusiness.healthfulchoice.com and see why.

Quixtar™ is a great company for many distributors. Quixtar™offers an exciting business opportunity. Anyone with a passion for success can join one of the most respected network marketing companies in the industry. Quixtar is a $1 billion company and the number one online health and beauty retailer.

There is a slight problem with most network marketing companies. The Quixtar™ leaders, like all other MLM company leaders, teach duplication. Here's the problem; duplication is a myth. Building a large organization through duplication just does not happen. Why? Not all people are the same. Each person has his or her own unique gifts, talents, and passions. Not everyone is a great recruiter, which is what it takes to build a massive organization. You may be the best recruiter for your Quixtar™ leads, but can you train and retain all of your Quixtar™ distributors to be able to do what you can do? Simply stated, you cannot! Duplication DOES NOT work!

I have two suggestions for you: 1. Stop spending your hard earned marketing dollars on leads, and 2. Start building a business through delegation, not duplication. Consider the concept of buying customers, not leads, so you can focus on your team, not selling products, or recruiting people not interested in their own business. Let me explain!

The Home Business Marketing Group has the unique approach of buying customers and growing your business through a large retail customer base. That's paying customers already purchasing your products; they are not a lead. The concept of buying customers, not leads, ensures long term residual income for the life of the customer relationship.

The Home Business Marketing Group teaches delegation, not duplication, to build a large organization. The Home Business Marketing Group is the first off-shoot of The Home Business Marketing Group, architects of the marketing plan, now being implemented by The Home Business Marketing Group.

Quite honestly, you will see the exact opposite, every members fighting over prospects.

Take the right approach to building a large business through teamwork, and stop spending your time trying to convince the few interested leads, you may get, to take action and make a purchase. Customers already know what they want and are sold on your product. It makes good business sense to buy customers and stop buying leads. It truly is the ultimate way to build a business.

This is free information by one of the most successful people in the industry, Tom Prendergast, CEO Inetekk. Do yourself, not to mention your business, a favor and listen as Tom lays it out step by step in plain speak. No bragging or boasting - Just fact.

Vemma Leads 121

Quality companies that produce products and provide income opportunities to the public can be found all over Google. Vemma™ is one of those good companies. Joining their business opportunity would be a good idea if the company had a good prospecting plan in place to acquire Vemma Leads. The last thing you want is to end up with the sole responsibility of building your business through Vemma Leads.

The number one reason people join a MLM or Network Marketing Company is to create an additional stream of income. Most new reps pour their heart and soul into their new business. They soon find out that they have to sell the companies products and then convince people to join their organization. YIKES!

The new Vemma™ reps typically turn to purchasing Vemma leads to build their business. After a few calls, they find out that the leads have been called many times and don't want to hear from another person about another skin care, healthcare, or network marketing product or opportunity again. PERIOD! The new reps dreams and hopes of making a secondary income is shattered. The leads that have been purchased are tired and sold over and over again. These Vemma leads have been pretty much picked over but even if they aren't once you get the lead, you still have to call them and sell them on your business.

I personally don't want to call any Vemma Leads.

That's why I buy customers and not Vemma Leads. I refuse to purchase a lead and call anyone. I have done it and don't like it! I have heard stories of people being hung up on, cursed at, and had to listen to people tell then that they wish they could get off the list that is being sold. So when you buy the list you are not getting a quality name but a name that has a history of being sold over and over again to unsuspecting people who are trying to build a business.

Are you sick of spending money on worthless Vemma Leads? What if I told you there was a better and more exciting way to build your business? What if you could buy customers, instead of leads? Would that be a revolutionary approach to the same old problem that ALL network marketers face?

Uptrend2u Leads 1130

Uptrend2u Leads and Your Uptrend2u® Business

The success of your independent Uptrend2u® network marketing distributorship is directly related to relationships, relationships with customers, other Uptrend2u® associates, and the company.

Success is measured in many ways including lifestyle, financial freedom, and accomplishing personal goals. Tied closely to your business success is the company's distributor support structure and the method by which Uptrend2u® will compensate you.

Experience has shown that a simple, rewarding and well defined compensation plan is the key in planning your efforts for maximum return and effectiveness.

At Uptrend2u®, they have a very simple and straight forward compensation plan that achieves these goals. As you study the Uptrend2u Compensation Plan, you will find that it is very concise and easy to understand, which helps you when explaining to others. You will also find that the plan can lead to success and rewards for you as well as those who join your Uptrend2u® team. Here's some additional information on the Uptrend2u Compensation Plan:

Uptrend2u's compensation plan, the Uptrend2u® Compensation Plan, is one of the most dynamic and generous in the network marketing industry. From your first great day in the Uptrend2u® business, you can begin earning money. Whether your goal is to develop a retail client base, build and train an extensive network organization, or a combination of both, the Uptrend2u Plan offers you lucrative rewards. The rewards include: Retail markup potential, cash bonuses, sales overrides, generation overrides, and many other benefits.

Uptrend2u® obviously has all the bases covered when it comes to products, comp plans, fast start bonuses and all the rest of the elements seen in MLM businesses. Uptrend2u® is dedicated to assisting their distributors to become successful. Although MLM marketing is a tough game, you must be willing to work hard, never quit, and keep the information flowing consistently, in order to make sales.

How do you plan on building your Uptrend2u® business? Will you buy Uptrend2u leads from one of the many online leads selling companies?

Are you willing to make the cold phone calls to people you do not know, and face the fact of rejection on a daily basis? Do you have what it takes to make those cold calls? Will you ask ALL of your friends and family to join your Uptrend2u® business?

If you have a Uptrend2u® business and are thinking about buying leads to promote your business, you may want to change to plan B. I have bought many leads, and spend thousands of dollars on those leads, and in all actuality, they were non-productive, expensive, and I saw absolutely no ROI on my investments.

What if you NEVER had to buy leads, make the calls or convince others to join your business?

The Home Business Marketing Group, of which I'm a major part, teach our team members to buy customers, Not Leads! You can do the same if you will just go to the Home Business Marketing Group web site, fill out the form and come to one of our business opportunity meetings.

Quixtar Leads - 1127

Quixtar is a $1 billion company and the number one online health and beauty retailer. Hundreds of thousands of entrepreneurs have earned more than $2.2 billion in bonuses and other incentives since 1999. They're backed by Quixtar and other IBOs who have succeeded before them and support them every step of the way.

Quixtar™, a subsidiary of Alticor, was created to give entrepreneurs the ability to have Web-based businesses of their own. The company's network of thousands of Independent Business Owners (IBOs) sells Quixtar's products in health, beauty, and other consumer categories. IBOs have generated more than U.S.$6.8 billion in sales since Quixtar was founded in 1999.

As a Web-based business, Quixtar™ has a strong focus on adopting leading-edge technologies. The company strives to provide IBOs with the best possible experience while maximizing the value of its technology investments. Since 1999, Quixtar has used Internet Information Services (IIS), part of the Windows Server® operating system, as its Web platform.

Quixtar™ is a MLM, Multi-Level Marketing opportunity. It is similar to a franchise except most franchises are granted exclusive territories or locations. However, in MLM a franchiser can usually recruit new franchises to add to their sales volume.

The goal of any MLM is sell some sort of product or service through non-traditional channels and recruit others utilizing personal contacts and then leveraging their reputation as a way to generate acceptance of the business opportunity.

The basic idea to making money in the business is to build a business volume where you earn a high performance bonus percentage and your down line earns a smaller percentage. For instance if you were in the 21% bonus level, you would like your downline people to be in a bonus level that is much lower than yours, say of 12% or 15%. This way you can pocket 6%-9% on the sales of your downline. If you are paying out the same percentage to your downline as you earn, you will not make any money. One needs to have his downline earning a much lower percentage than one earns to be able to keep a fair portion of the bonus.

What about buying Quixtar Leads to build my business?

Should I buy Quixtar leads to build my business?
What is the ROI (return on investment) that I can expect from purchasing Quixtar Leads?
How many other people are being sold the same leads, even though the leads are promoted as being fresh and responsive?

Are you tired of the hype, lies and misrepresentation from lead brokers? Why not consider the alternative?

Vemma Leads - 1116

Building A Home Based Business with Vemma

As the Internet matures, so too has the way in which home based business professionals discover new and innovative ways to promote their products or services. It's funny when you look at snail mail today; its such an old way of doing business compared to email, blogging, and the relatively new Blackberries.

Vemma was founded by BK Boreyko and his family. Vemma's parent company, New Vision, is a revolutionary leader in health and wellness. With over $1 billion in total retail sales, this company helped pioneer liquid nutrition over 12 years ago by introducing the #1 selling liquid mineral supplement in North America. Vemma's unique global wellness philosophy delivers a results driven product. Vemma is an established company with ten's of thousands of satisfied monthly consumers, and world class customer service.

The Vemma family is made up of thousands of individuals working to make their dreams come true. Through sales incentives and rewards, a generous Compensation Plan, and great products, Vemma offers a unique opportunity that can help make anyone's vision for the future a reality. BUT, there is one BIG problem.

If I join this opportunity, should I buy Vemma Leads to build my business?

As the Internet matures, many individuals and companies are recommending their distributors buy leads, including Vemma leads. They believe if they buy the so called fresh and responsive Vemma Leads from lead brokers, this, in turn, will help build a long term and stable residual income. In my opinion, ALL lead brokers are the same. They take the Vemma leads you purchased, and re-sell them to several other unsuspecting business people. Then they take those leads and re-sell them to several other lead broker companies. This is a never ending cycle within the leads marketing companies. No matter what they tell you, they will re-sell your Vemma leads over and over again.

With that in mind, the questions that you should be asking yourself prior to buying any leads are as follows:

Should I buy Vemma leads to build my business?
What is the ROI (return on investment) that I can expect from purchasing Vemma Leads?
How many other people are being sold the same leads, even though the leads are promoted as being fresh and responsive?

Are you tired of the hype, lies and misrepresentation from lead brokers? Why not consider the alternative?

Never Buy Vemma Leads Again . . . Buy Customers Not Vemma Leads . . . No More Cold Calling

Enter The Home Business Marketing Group! They teach you how to buy customers Not leads to build your home business. These are not distributors; these a real customers who want to buy products. It even gets better! You don't have to advertise for these customers or even talk to them.

We are a team of Internet experts building long term and stable income, and we teach others to do the same. However, this is not a Free ride! The Home Business Marketing Group members are held accountable for specific delegated duties. We build as a team, so you will be following a business model of delegation, not duplication (what other busineeses teach), that the rest of the world utilizes to become successful.

Quixtar Leads - 1109

Qualifying Quixtar leads can be one of the most time consuming and cost-intensive parts of running a networking or MLM business. Buying the so-called "phone qualified leads" can be very expensive. So is there a better way to build a Quixtar, Arbonne, Send Out Cards, Nu Skin, MonaVie, Big Planet, Uptrend2u, Vemma, or 10-in-One-Vitamins business without buying leads? Yes! Buy customers instead of leads.

The Home Business Marketing Group, http://homebusiness.healthfulchoice.com, has the unique approach of buying customers and growing your business through a large retail customer base. Those customers are already purchasing products; they are not leads. The concept of buying customers, not leads, ensures long term residual income for the life of the customer relationship.

The Home Business Marketing Group teaches delegation, not duplication, to build a large organization. The Home Business Marketing Group is the first off-shoot of The Home Business Marketing Group, architects of the marketing plan, now being implemented by The Home Business Marketing Group. Members of the Home Business Marketing Group work together for the good of the whole team. This synergistic approach is something you will never see in other MLM companies. Quite honestly, you will see the exact opposite, every members fighting over the same prospects.

Quixtar™ is a wonderful company with fantastic products, great leadership, and a generous compensation plan. Quixtar™ is a fantastic company and also has a tremendous leadership team. I'm sure I could look at all of the companies listed above and say the same thing about each one of them. I can also say the same thing about what their leaders, and top income earners say, buy leads, and duplicate what your sponsor does. The problem with that type of philosophy is not everyone is the same. How can the average person duplicate what a top recruiter can do? They can't! That's why the majority of MLM businesses fail. They teach duplication, and duplication does not work.

What does work is having an organization of top loaded with customers, not reps. What does work is delegation, not duplication. What does work is teamwork, not one person doing it all. Having enough customers to bring in revenue works; teaching delegation rather than duplication works; and working together as a team works. It's a proven fact, and I have seen it first hand.

The majority of MLM companies, like Quixtar™ are great. Their products, for the most part, are of the highest quality. Their leadership is usually the best found in the marketplace. But their teachings and training methods are old school and simply do not work.

Take the high-tech approach to building a large business through teamwork, delegation, and customers, and stop spending your time trying to convince the few interested leads, you may get, to take action and make a purchase. Customers already know what they want and are sold on your product. It makes good business sense to buy customers and stop buying leads. It truly is the ultimate way to build a business.

Prepaid Legal Leads - 1102

Generating leads for your prepaid leagal business if you have the right system and learn from the experts. There is no reason anyone should ever have to buy prepaid legal leads. With that said, you're probably wondering why. Before I tell you why, let me show you some of the "hype" that follows most mlm companies.

I was doing a search on Google for prepaid legal leads, and this is what I found. When I Cashed My Prepaid Legal Check, The Bank Teller's Eyes Popped Out Of Her Head. She Gasped: "You want this in CASH?!" Now what kind of nonsense is that? It's the kind of stuff that gives the network marketing industry a bad name.

As I continued to read the stuff on this site, I find that they have "the most receptive, thorough, responsive, truly real-time prepaid legal leads. These leads are inquiries from eager, ready-to-act prospects with pressing legal issues that need your help."

Now, if I was a betting man, I'd say that the last part of the statement was true and I'd bet that these people are facing criminal charges for some crime they have committed. This is just a hunch, and may not be true, but this is the way companies that sell leads try to deceive the honest network marketer. Let's look further into their site.

"We guarantee you'll find our leads the most productive and inexpensive anywhere, better than any other lead source." This is the same rhetoric you will hear from all the lead companies. I have yet to see a lead selling company that did not make this claim.

"If you've used another lead provider in the past, forget about them. After you try one order of our leads, you will be stunned at their high conversion rates and rock-bottom price."

Let me tell you, the high conversion rate DOES NOT happen. You need to make a lot of calls and have very think skin. If you can handle rejections well and wnat to make a lot of calls, then you can succeed with buying leads. However, plan on spending a lot of money on leads, because you will need a lot to make one sale, or sign up one rep.

The web site, leadtothetop.com (www.leadtothetop.com) charges $5.50 per licensed prepaid legal lead, and $5.75 for unlicensed prepaid legal leads. You can buy the leads in lots of 20 or 50, and each comes with a few free leads. That's kind of like saying, "our leads really aren't that good, so take a few extra." As I said before, leads a re very expensive.

I do not buy leads. I prefer to buy customers. And that's exactly what we do at the Home Business Marketing Group. We not only buy customers, we generate our own leads. We also teach delegation, not duplication, as with most network marketing companies.

If you have a Pre-paid Legal™ business and are thinking about buying leads to promote your business, think about changing to plan B, and buy customers, not leads. I've bought my fair share of leads. I've spent thousands of dollars on those leads, and in all actuality, they were non-productive, expensive, and I saw absolutely no ROI on my investments.

What if you NEVER had to buy leads, make the calls or convince others to join your business?

The Home Business Marketing Group, of which I am a major part, we teach our team members to buy customers, Not Leads! You can do the same if you will just go to http://homebusiness.healthfulchoice.com, fill out the form and come to our Saturday business opportunity meeting.

Arbonne™ has great skin care products and may be a great choice in starting a home business.

Google Arbonne™ leads and Arbonne™ to find additional info about Arbonne™ or go to the Arbonne™ website. I give Arbonne™ two thumbs up in my personal Arbonne™ review even though I am in no way affiliated with Arbonne™.

When looking for a MLM company to be affiliated with, my personal opinion is to go with a well established company such as Arbonne™. Below you will find information about home based business leads, myspace leads, and buying leads to promote your home based business. My recommendation is to stop buying leads for your home business; there are other ways to build a downline and get more customers.

Leads or Arbonne Leads

When trying to find leads, customers or people to join your business, the majority of people turn to buying leads. Buying leads to build a large business organization DOES NOT work! Now why would I say that?

First of all, it's a waste of money for any home business entrepreneur, because the ROI is simply not worth the effort and time it takes. You have to call Secondly, most of us will never be able to sponsor enough people with purchased leads to grow a substantial organization before we run out of money. Thirdly, even if we do sponsor people, how many of them will actually have the stomach to do what we have done? Not many!

To see what I'm talking about read an excerpt from an article I found online at http://ezinearticles.com/?Are-You-Buying-MLM-Leads?&id=874980.

As often happens I received a call from a guy that wanted to "talk shop" about the network marketing industry. As typically happens, he immediately launched into a high pressure sales pitch to get me to join his network marketing business. I let him go on for a while, then I turned the tables on him and led him through a series of questions.

The first question I always ask this type of person is this: "Are you buying MLM leads?"

Invariably I get the same answer over and over. Yes, I buy 100, 200, or even 500 leads a month - the answer varies per person. However when I ask the next tough question, how many people have you sponsored and how long have you been cold calling these leads, the answer is almost always the same - ZERO!..

..The cold hard fact is that most of us will never be able to sponsor enough people with purchased leads to grow a substantial organization before we run out of money. Even if we do sponsor people, how many of them will actually have the stomach to do what we have done? Not many!

In fact when I first got started I had spent thousands of dollars on leads, hours and hours on the phone and I was scared to death! I had no idea what I would do to help a new associate get started when I finally did sponsor someone. I felt physically sick when I realized that I was leading others down the same dead end path I was on.

You have doomed your MLM business to fail if you are purchasing MLM leads and only calling them one time - with no other way to make money if they don't join your primary business.

If you have never bought leads - don't start! Talk to people who have bought leads to build their home business and you will get many of the same answers, they wasted their money. There are plenty of options available to find people interested in a home based business. You could use free myspace work from home leads or simply buy customers not leads.

Myspace - Home Business Leads

Myspace home business leads are free and work great for building your home business. All you need are a few simple techniques when using myspace leads, and that should make all the difference in the growth of your business. Myspace leads do work! But, if you do not like contacting people you have never met, there is another option. You can do what I do, buy customers not leads. whatever you decide, both methods are outstanding for your home business.

Buy customers not leads

Stop wasting money buying leads, if that's what you are currently doing. Change your mindset and start buying customers. I buy customers and I have excellent results. Buying customers is probably the best and fastest way to earn income. Since the customers I buy are already buying and using a product, I DO NOT have to sell them anything. This is the easiest method that I have ever tried. I never go a month without getting new customers; I simply buy more customers. And now the best part; many of the customers I buy will become affiliate members and they will bring people into my organization.

When you buy customers and get your downline to do the same thing, you will see large increases in the size of your organization, and this happens in a relatively short period of time. If you would like to learn how to get your downline to see how effective it is to buy customers, visit The Home Business Marketing Group.

Prepaid Legal Leads - 1019

Pre-Paid Legal Services®, Inc. was one of the first companies in the United States organized solely to design, underwrite and market legal expense plans. For a low monthly fee of $26 or less, the Company's legal expense plans (referred to as memberships) offer a variety of legal services in a manner similar to medical reimbursement plans or HMOs.

The Company currently provides legal services to over 1.5 million families across the U.S. and Canada. Plan benefits are delivered through a network of independent provider law firms. Members have direct, toll-free access to their provider law firm rather than having to comb through a yellow-page style directory for a referral. Provider firms are carefully selected and the quality of service is closely monitored to maintain the high standards of Pre-Paid Legal.

If you have a Pre-Paid Legal business and are thinking about buying leads to promote your business, well, you may want to rethink that idea. You see, I have bought many leads, and spend thousands of dollars on those leads, but in all actuality, they were non-productive, expensive and I saw absolutely no ROI on my investments.

Here's a quote from one of the web sites (MLMLeadGenie) that sells Pre-Paid Legal Leads:

"Phone Interviewed Exclusive Prepaid Legal Real-Time Leads are custom generated to suit you and your group's business needs. These leads typically cost $6 - $12 per lead however for a limited period we have decided to extend a special pricing to your entire group. You can order Phone Interviewed Custom Prepaid Legal Real-Time Leads for as less as $3.50 per lead, that is a 50% saving over our retail prices!"

"Each Phone Interviewed Custom Prepaid Legal Real-Time Lead is generated using a custom script. Our in-house telemarketers contact over 25 prospects to generate 1 qualified custom lead. At MLMLeadGenie our first and foremost priority is to generate leads of the highest quality. We pledge that under no circumstances will we circumvent our quality control process."

A lot of business building leaders will tell you to buy Pre-Paid Legal leads from them, or they may direct you to a web site that sells leads. To build your business, you need more than leads, which were probably bought and sold several times. Well, let me ask you a question here. How much money have you spent, or are you willing to spend, on building your Pre-Paid Legal business? Hundreds, or perhaps even thousands of dollars?

At the cost of $4 for each Pre-Paid Legal lead, you could spend a fortune trying to find one distributor or customer. Personally, I DO NOT buy leads. I prefer to buy customers, individulas already buying and using the the company's products.

If you would like to learn more about buying customers, just fill in the contact form and come to our meetings on Saturday afternoons. You will learn the right approach to building your business on the net.

By the way, you can continue to use your Pre-Paid Legal™ products, just make money in an entirely new manner from now on!

Arbonne™ is a product-driven company that strongly encourages people to try our products as customers before building a business.

Arbonne™ Leads

Here is the price you would pay for leads. This is typical of some of the top lead selling companies found on the Internet:

Quantity Cost Each Total Purchase

50 Phone Verified Leads 2.00 $100.00
100 Phone Verified Leads 1.80 $180.0

Building a successful Arbonne business takes having enought people to talk to. With that in mind, the majority of top networkers teach their downline to buy leads. Turning leads into reps is not an easy task, especially if you are not a good phone person. It takes a certain skill to turn leads into reps, a skill most networkers lack. Lacking that one skill costs many would-be-marketers to bypass the MLM industry. Lacking that one skill is the reason so many networkers fail. Well I have good news for you; you do not have to call leads. As a matter of fact, you do not even have to buy leads.

We promote buying customers, NOT leads. We are a team of Internet marketers that work together, buy customers, and teach others to do the same. And let me tell you..this system that we have incorporated really does work. When I buy customers, they appear in my downline with out any effort on my part. And the 10% of my downline that are distributors do the same thing. Man-O-man we are happy buying customers not leads!

Testimonial found on the Internet:

Oh my goodness people!!!!! Have you truly tried any other products than Oil of olay. You are missing the point of Arbonne products. The first thing you notice is they have little to no sent which means they arent synthetic or perfumed. In ten years of Spa business, the only products that have come close to performing in the same class as Arbonne cost double what you pay for Arbonne. You have to break things down sometimes.

Uptrend2u Leads-928

Uptrend2u Leads, Are You Buying Them?

Uptrend2u™ is an Internet-based multi-level marketing platform that allows you to build an international business from the comfort of your home or office. Our members consist of individuals from all walks of life, from financiers and managements strategists, to teachers, retirees and fresh graduates; by identifying their strengths and building on them, these passionate people are, today, proud owners of thriving Internet businesses.

Uptrend2u® is an excellent company, but like many other MLM or Networking companies the structure is set up to create huge costs on the distributors and little on the company. These companies try to let the individuals think that they are in their own business, then encourage them to spend their own money in marketing to attract their own customers. This forces the so called "new business owner" to spend their own money for leads or reverse marketing systems in hopes of bringing in new distributors. Throughout this whole process the marketing cost for Uptrend2u® is minimal.

Also companies like Uptrend2u® are not equipped to sell to the end user (the person consuming the products), but expect the distributor to do the job for them. This is very difficult since advertising and marketing can be very expensive. The traditional way of acquiring customers is to purchase leads. The independent reps then have to cold call the leads, and try to get people interested in their company or products. Another strategy is to bring in friends and family to the business and hopefully they will do the same. The end result of these combined strategies is rejection and a very small percentage of people signing up. If these particular strategies worked the majority of people entering a MLM or network marketing business would be highly successful. Instead they are not!

Buy Customers Not Uptrend2u Leads?

There is a new business model that eliminates all of the excessive expense and allows its business affiliates to purchase customers, individuals that are consuming the products. When purchasing a customer incentive lead the business affiliate begins to derive commissions from that customer right away. No MLM or network marketing company is allowed to sell directly to the consumer; products must go through the company's independent distributors. The company bears the expense of customer acquisition by having mechanisms in place that sell to the customer. The company then passes the customer onto their business affiliates for considerably less than the cost of a sold lead.

Although Uptrend2u® and many other MLM or Network Marketing Companies have good products their systems are usually lacking structure, with regards to enabling their distributors to create substantial revenue. If you would like to learn about buying customers instead of leads, I would like to invite you to a live online meeting. You can hear and see a presentation on how the system works. If you're interested, please go to http://homebusiness.healthfulchoice.com and sign up. You will receive an email with the password to get into our Saturday meeting.

If you have any desire to have a successful Internet business, DO NOT pass up this opportunity. The presentation is free and informative! I have looked at many different business models, but I have never seen one as user friendly as this before. This business model surely is for the "little guy". If you're still interested after attending the meeting, please feel free to contact me. I will explain this opportunity to you further.

Quixtar Leads | 914

Quixtar® was launched in 1999. Their Internet commerce business model combines the commercial power of the Internet, and low-cost Independent Business Ownership (IBO) Plans. Quixtar® has a full-service infrastructure to help individuals reach their goals. Quixtar® is a division of Alticor, parent company of Amway™, Corp. Quixtar® was launched to combine the best aspects of Amway with the power and convenience of the Internet.

Quixtar® was founded by the DeVos and Van Andel families, who are among North America's leading entrepreneurs with numerous business ventures in direct selling, sports entertainment, real estate, lodging and hospitality, and other business sectors.

There are two ways to administer a Quixtar® business. In the old Amway™ business, everyone paid their downline their bonuses and also had to pick up product from their upline. Quixtar® started paying distributors directly and offering direct shipment to each distributor's home, but a few groups within Quixtar® still work by the old Amway methods. One such group is World Wide Dream Builders. This method is called "Standard fulfillment". The new Quixtar® method is called "Direct fulfillment".

The basic idea to making money in the business is to build a business volume where you earn a high performance bonus percentage and your down line earns a smaller percentage. For instance if you were in the 21% bonus level, you would like your downline people to be in a bonus level that is much lower than yours, say of 12% or 15%. This way you can pocket 6%-9% on the sales of your downline. If you are paying out the same percentage to your downline as you earn, you will not make any money. One needs to have his downline earning a much lower percentage than one earns to be able to keep a fair portion of the bonus.

The Quixtar®® Independent Business Owner (IBO) Compensation Plan rewards you for selling products and for sponsoring others as IBOs who will do the same.

Simple Steps to Success IBOs who grow the most successful businesses sell to non-IBO customers and sponsor, while experiencing the products by purchasing them for their own use.

Step 1: Learn. The only way to truly understand your products is to use them. Knowing what our products can do for you is important when presenting them as solutions for your customers. You'll also want to fully understand the compensation plan and Quixtar®'s business rules. Check out Quixtar® University to see other training options we provide.

Step 2: Sell. As your product knowledge increases, you will discover people all around you who need what you have through your Quixtar® business. Retail selling is the easiest way to make quick money through your Quixtar® business.

Step 3: Sponsor. For some of your friends, products provide the solution they seek. For others, the Quixtar® business opportunity will have strong appeal as they seek a business that can help them achieve their goals. When you sponsor them, you can be rewarded for the business volume they generate.

If you have a Quixtar™ business and are thinking about buying leads to promote your business, well, you may want to rethink that idea. You see, I have bought many leads, and spend thousands of dollars on those leads, but in all actuality, they were non-productive, expensive and I saw absolutely no ROI on my investments.

Quixtar® leads are opt in requests for more information from people who have visited the number one home based business directory on the internet, and requested more information via the SafeLeads program.

Lead pricing:
30 Leads - $48
50 Leads - $75
100 Leads - $140
200 Leads - $260

As you can see in the price list, leads are not cheap. That is why I hate leads and I do not buy leads. I buy customers.

I don't buy leads. I buy customers. They cost $50 each. Half of what the results of buying leads conversion cost without all the time spent. I don't have to make any calls. I don't get rejected. I do not have good telemarketing skills. I don't need them. And when I buy customers, they appear in my downline with out any effort on my part.

And the 10% of my downline that are distributors do the same thing. Man-O-man we are happy buying customers not leads!

MonaVie Leads | 97

According to the UCLA Center for Human Nutrition, the four most consumed plant foods (fruits or vegetables) in America are:
French fries, ketchup, pizza sauce and iceberg lettuce!

Is it any wonder that obesity has become an epidemic and that even children are now afflicted with many of the "lifestyle" diseases once reserved for older people?

Ok, we may all know we should eat more fruits and vegetables, but lives are busy. Quick meals are often a necessity. Fresh produce is expensive in many locales. We tend to get bored with apples, bananas and oranges. Parents don't have time to enforce healthy eating habits upon their children.

Enter MonaVie™, an exquisite health drink, destined to make a profound difference in the lives of countless people of the world. The formulators of MonaVie™, driven by a passion for helping humanity and bringing abundance into the lives of many, have created the consummate blend of health-promoting fruits from the four corners of the earth.

MonaVie's roots reach deep into the Amazon where the rainforest is home to one-third of the world's species of animal and plant life and where deforesting is threatening habitat and ecosystems.

MonaVie's most renowned ingredient, the legendary Acai Berry, is one of the few Brazilian exports that can directly protect the mighty rainforest itself. As word of the extraordinary benefits of drinking MonaVie reaches across nations and oceans, harvesting the rainforest FRUITS will become wiser Brazilian commerce than harvesting the trees themselves.

Looking for a business opportunity? MonaVie™ has one of the most innovative and lucrative compensation plans ever devised, and it is hailed by some of the top network marketers around the world. It allows for multiple ways to earn weekly income. The Compensation plan uses the power of a New Generation Binary and its unlimited depth feature, with the wealth-creating feature of unlimited width.

If you have a MonaVie business and are thinking about buying leads to promote your business, you may want to rethink your strategy. You see, I have bought many leads, and spend thousands of dollars on those leads, but in all actuality, they were non-productive, expensive and I saw absolutely no ROI on my investments.

Here are some clear facts regarding leads and network marketing. Most MLM companies operate in the same manner. You may even know what I'm talking about! A lot of business leaders tell you to buy leads from them to build your business? Well, let me ask you a question here. How much money have you spent in building your MonaVie business? Hundreds, or perhaps even thousands of dollars?

What if I told you there was a better and more exciting way to build your business? What if you could buy customers, instead of leads? Would that be a revolutionary approach to the same old problem that ALL network marketers face?

If you would like to learn more about buying customers, just fill in the contact form and come to our meetings on Saturday afternoons. You will learn the right approach to building your business on the net.

Arbonne Leads | 824

Have you ever wondered - If there was a better way to build your Arbonne™ business than buying leads?

Have you had any success buying Arbonne Leads and trying to convince them to join you in your Arbonne™ business? Personally, I hate calling leads. I have discovered that buying customers instead of buying leads is a much better way to build a home business. I don't have the expense of buying leads and making long distance phone calls only to get rejected. Buying customers that are already purchasing the product is the only way I will do business now. You can go to http://homebusiness.healthfulchoice.com and see why.

Arbonne™ is a great company for many distributors. Arbonne™offers an exciting business opportunity. Anyone with a passion for success can join one of the most respected network marketing companies in the industry. Arbonne has been in business 28 years and they specialize in Swiss Skin care and beauty products that are pure, safe and results oriented.

There is a slight problem with most network marketing companies. The Arbonne™ leaders, like all other MLM company leaders, teach duplication. Here's the problem; duplication is a myth. Building a large organization through duplication just does not happen. Why? Not all people are the same. Each person has his or her own unique gifts, talents, and passions. Not everyone is a great recruiter, which is what it takes to build a massive organization. You may be the best recruiter for your Arbonne™ leads, but can you train and retain all of your Arbonne™ distributors to be able to do what you can do? Simply stated, you cannot! Duplication DOES NOT work!

I have two suggestions for you: 1. Stop spending your hard earned marketing dollars on leads, and 2. Start building a business through delegation, not duplication. Consider the concept of buying customers, not leads, so you can focus on your team, not selling products, or recruiting people not interested in their own business. Let me explain!

The Home Business Marketing Group, http://homebusiness.healthfulchoice.com, has the unique approach of buying customers and growing your business through a large retail customer base. That's paying customers already purchasing your products; they are not a lead. The concept of buying customers, not leads, ensures long term residual income for the life of the customer relationship.

The Home Business Marketing Group teaches delegation, not duplication, to build a large organization. The Home Business Marketing Group is the first off-shoot of The Home Business Marketing Group, architects of the marketing plan, now being implemented by The Home Business Marketing Group. Members of our team work together for the good of the whole team. This synergistic approach is something you will never see in other MLM companies. Quite honestly, you will see the exact opposite, every members fighting over prospects.

Take the right approach to building a large business through teamwork, and stop spending your time trying to convince the few interested leads, you may get, to take action and make a purchase. Customers already know what they want and are sold on your product. It makes good business sense to buy customers and stop buying leads. It truly is the ultimate way to build a business.

This is free information by one of the most successful people in the industry, Tom Prendergast, CEO Inetekk. Do yourself, not to mention your business, a favor and listen as Tom lays it out step by step in plain speak. No bragging or boasting - Just fact.

MonaVie Leads | 817

MonaVie™ is a quality company that produces products and provides income opportunities to the general public. To have a business opportunity with them would be a good idea providing the company had an exceptional prospecting plan in place. The last thing any new representative needs is ending up with the sole responsibility of building a business through the process of buying MonaVie leads.

People join MonaVie™, or any other MLM or Network Marketing Company, with the hopes and dreams of being able to create an additional income stream. Most individuals that join these companies pour their hearts and souls into their new business. Unfortunately, shortly thereafter, they find out that they have to sell the products (become a salesperson) to others and also convince people to join their organization (become a recruiter).

The new MonaVie™ "business person" also finds out that they have to resort to purchasing leads. many of these MonaVie leads have been called many times and don't want to hear from someone else about another MLM opportunity and/or product. The leads that have been purchased are just plain tired of the phone calls, and they have been sold over and over again by the leads companies. Think about it! If a lead was so good why would the lead companies sell them for peanuts? MonaVie Leads can be purchased for less than a penny if they are purchased in large quantities. The sad fact is, these leads have been pretty much picked over, but even if they aren't, you still have to call them and sell them on your business.

Personally, I have called hundreds of leads, and I don't want to call leads anymore...

I don't like calling people and trying to sell them to come into my business. That's why I buy customers and not leads. I refuse to purchase another lead because I don't like calling these people. I have done it and don't like it! I have had people hang up me, curse at me, and I had to listen to people tell me that they wish they could get off the list that is being sold. So, if you are new to MonaVie, and are considering buying leads, the list of leads you are getting are not quality names but names that has a history of being sold over and over again to unsuspecting people who are trying to build a business.

I get business proposals all the time from individuals looking for me to invest in their business, or just to look at their business. Sometimes they are looking for me to give them feedback. With all do respect, what they are really looking for is for me to read their information, or watch their business presentation, and get excited about their business, with the hopes of me joining their organization. That usually DOES NOT work!

WHY?

Most of the opportunities are the same old thing, a MLM or Network Marketing opportunity that they have received from an associate that they want me to evaluate and give them my opinion. The bottom line is they are looking for an investment from me. When I look at them I see the same common thread running through each and every one of them. They are opportunities that require buying massive amounts of leads and lots of phone work. When I see this I stay away, because I like I said before, I don't want to call anyone and try to convince them to join a business that I know will not produce the promises that were made.

NOW THE GOOD NEWS - The one that got my attention!

Although I read the majority of business proposals, it's only out of courtesy. I NEVER recommend a business opportunity, not until I got one that got my attention. This one was different! It had a totally unique business model. It was a Nutraceutical Company that had a whole new approach to the MLM and Network Marketing Industry. I looked at the products and saw that they were powerful and promoted wellness. Although many other opportunities promoted wellness, this company was unique. They promoted Wellness and Wealth simultaneously.

As I kept reading I saw what really triggered my mind, and made me realize that this is a totally different approach. I saw their was no other MLM company that had anything like it. As I did my due-diligence, I could not find anything like this on the Internet, except the company proposed in the plan. What was this unique concept? They promoted buying customers, NOT leads!

Buy Customers not leads...

As I kept reading and learning, I found out that this company has the unique ability to sell direct to the consumer and then once the consumer buys the product they sell the customer to Business Affiliates. I searched the web site and read everything that I could trying to find out if I was missing something, or if my perception of this company was wrong. I never heard about buying customers and so I wasn't sure that I was reading it correctly.

I called several people to verify the information. I talked to a person who had been doing it for a while and he confirmed my findings. I do not have make phone calls to leads who don't want to be called. All I do is purchase the customer from the company and get the commissions.

I keep reading and trying to find the flaws in the system, but none were found. I went to a meeting at http://homebusiness.healthfulchoice.com and listened to Tom Prendergast talk about how he has gotten increased results every month for seven years, even though he was not working the business. In other words, his check had gone up every single month since he started, and all he had to do was buy customers.

I thought I have heard it all, but not this time. This is a new innovation to me, even though it has been around for almost ten years. As this catches on, I believe it will drive other MLM or Network Marketing Companies wild because they simply can't compete. I also believe that this is going to pull top producers away from their current MLM companies. I have heard many top producers are already looking at this business model and have plans to leave their existing companies. Why? The majority of network marketers DO NOT like making unnecessary phone calls. With this business model, you can never lose your customers since they are customers and not someone's downline. This makes your business stable and solid.

So, what does this have to do with MonaVie™? Absolutely nothing! But if you were considering joining MonaVie, you may want to take a look at The Home Business Marketing Group first. To do so, go to http://homebusiness.healthfulchoice.com and sign in. You will receive an invitation to the meetings. If you are still interested after attending the meeting, feel free to contact me. If I don't answer please leave a message and I will get back to you ASAP.

Leads or Vemma Leads

When trying to find leads, customers or people to join your business, the majority of people turn to buying leads. Buying leads to build a large business organization DOES NOT work! Now why would I say that?

First of all, it's a waste of money for any home business entrepreneur, because the ROI is simply not worth the effort and time it takes. You have to call Secondly, most of us will never be able to sponsor enough people with purchased leads to grow a substantial organization before we run out of money. Thirdly, even if we do sponsor people, how many of them will actually have the stomach to do what we have done? Not many!

To see what I'm talking about read an excerpt from an article I found online at http://ezinearticles.com/?Are-You-Buying-MLM-Leads?&id=874980.

As often happens I received a call from a guy that wanted to "talk shop" about the network marketing industry. As typically happens, he immediately launched into a high pressure sales pitch to get me to join his network marketing business. I let him go on for a while, then I turned the tables on him and led him through a series of questions.

The first question I always ask this type of person is this: "Are you buying MLM leads?"

Invariably I get the same answer over and over. Yes, I buy 100, 200, or even 500 leads a month - the answer varies per person. However when I ask the next tough question, how many people have you sponsored and how long have you been cold calling these leads, the answer is almost always the same - ZERO!...

...The cold hard fact is that most of us will never be able to sponsor enough people with purchased leads to grow a substantial organization before we run out of money. Even if we do sponsor people, how many of them will actually have the stomach to do what we have done? Not many!

In fact when I first got started I had spent thousands of dollars on leads, hours and hours on the phone and I was scared to death! I had no idea what I would do to help a new associate get started when I finally did sponsor someone. I felt physically sick when I realized that I was leading others down the same dead end path I was on.

You have doomed your MLM business to fail if you are purchasing MLM leads and only calling them one time - with no other way to make money if they don't join your primary business.

If you have never bought leads - don't start! Talk to people who have bought leads to build their home business and you will get many of the same answers, they wasted their money. There are plenty of options available to find people interested in a home based business. You could use free myspace work from home leads or simply buy customers not leads.

Myspace - Home Business Leads

Myspace home business leads are free and work great for building your home business. All you need are a few simple techniques when using myspace leads, and that should make all the difference in the growth of your business. Myspace leads do work! But, if you do not like contacting people you have never met, there is another option. You can do what I do, buy customers not leads. whatever you decide, both methods are outstanding for your home business.

Buy customers not leads

Stop wasting money buying leads, if that's what you are currently doing. Change your mindset and start buying customers. I buy customers and I have excellent results. Buying customers is probably the best and fastest way to earn income. Since the customers I buy are already buying and using a product, I DO NOT have to sell them anything. This is the easiest method that I have ever tried. I never go a month without getting new customers; I simply buy more customers. And now the best part; many of the customers I buy will become affiliate members and they will bring people into my organization.

When you buy customers and get your downline to do the same thing, you will see large increases in the size of your organization, and this happens in a relatively short period of time. If you would like to learn how to get your downline to see how effective it is to buy customers, visit The Home Business Marketing Group.

Tampogo Leads

Tampogo is a new place to shop, save, and EARN!

According to Tampogo's affiliate's web sites, this is a new Networking Income Opportunity, designed to provide savings on everyday products you already use. Additionally, when you refer friends or family to TamPogo, you can earn income on everyday products THEY already use.

Tampogo is also:

1. It's simple to use.
2. No registration fees and no membership fees.
3. Amazing products people use everyday, at unmatched prices. Each product purchased provides an immediate payment to the Network Partners.
4. Network Partners and Non-profit Organizations can develop a significant income stream.
5. AND...a starving child somewhere in the world will be fed for one week every time an item is purchased through Tampogo.
6. Tampogo has nutritional products in the $20-$30 range, which will qualify for full commissions. They also have designer clothes, watches, and Austrian jewelry.

So not only does Tampogo allow you to make money by building an online business, they also provide food for the starving children of the world. How are the masses building their businesses?

That's what I look at before I get involved in any business, and I think you should do the same before joining Tampogo or any other home based business opportunity. Are the leaders telling you to buy leads, call your close friends, bug your family members, or just promote your business on the Internet and social networking sites? Whatever the case, you should never buy into someone telling you to buy leads.

Leads are very expensive and typically produce very little in the way of customers and/or business builders.

One Tampogo site I visited said "we will be providing FREE Business Builder Leads for our downline Team." Wahoo! That's just what I want to build my business, "FREE Business Builder Leads!" what exactly are "FREE Business Builder Leads?"

In order to find out, I took to the Internet, and did a search on Google and Bing. Here is what I found?

EXACTLY NOTHING!!!

Yes, the only thing I found is that every MLM opportunity said they would give their sigups "FREE Business Builder Leads." I haven't found out what those leads are but I can only imagine..some poor sucker's email address, that someone found on the Internet, or bought from some a lead scalper.

I've said it a thousand times - building a business with Tampogo leads is a waste of time and money. Leads are nothing but people that have had their email addresses sold and bought hundreds and sometimes even thousands of times.

I don't buy leads, because the majority of leads are worthless. I prefer to buy customers. They cost $50 each, half of what the results of buying leads conversion cost without all the time spent. I don't have to make any calls. I don't get rejected. I do not have good telemarketing skills. I don't need them. And when I buy customers, they appear in my downline with out any effort on my part.

And the 10% of my downline that are distributors do the same thing. Man-O-man we are happy buying customers not leads!

MonaVie Leads | 727

Solutions and Benefits for the MonaVie™ Representative

Through association and compliance any struggling MonaVie™ representative can succeed.

This post contains practical information on the benefits of the Network Marketer without Hype, Distractions and Wordiness. There is a 99.9% chance you are building your MonaVie™ business through the process of buying MonaVie™ LEADS, then converting these leads into MonaVie™ Reps in order to create a downline, several levels deep. The process of buying MonaVie leads is typical, not only with MonaVie™, but throughout the MLM industry. Top MLM leaders teach and continue to scream DUPLICATION, DUPLICATION, and more DUPLICATION, and buying leads is the foundation of this business model. Ironically, buying leads is the obstacle that stands in the way of success for the average marketer. Why? Most unsuspecting newbie marketers want nothing to do with learning the art of sales. Cold-Calling Leads is a brutal task you MUST endure to be successful in the typical MLM model.

Let me share a little information about buying MonaVie leads. If you purchased 10,000 Leads all you have to do is do the math concerning the time management. And that's just it. We consider our time just as valuable as money. After calling 100 leads and getting 100 rejections, that's 2 to 3 hours we will never get back. Common sense tells us this concept does not add value to our life and we discontinued the practice. The average marketer will jump from one opportunity to another hoping buying leads are not the foundation to become successful. Unfortunately, they find out that it is. They try once more to put on the sales hat, this time they'll purchase some motivational tape or book to stay the course. After a while, they are back where they started, frustrated without any returns on their investment.

So what's the solution?

In your typical brick and mortar business the cry goes out for location, location, location. So what would be the equivalent for a successful Online Business? It could very well be; customers, customers, customers, and I have a strong case to back that statement up. Online Marketing has lost its innocence by reason of the massive amount of scams and absurd programs that flooded the MLM industry. Venturing into these waters can be very nerve racking; even the seasoned veteran MLMer shutters at some of the programs out there, not to mention the novice opportunist. Reputation, stability and adaptation will interest the skeptic which is the key to surviving in this industry. There's an old concept that is emerging ever so quietly in this industry and it will change the core of the typical MLM theory.

How much more appealing would it be if you could bypass the Leads dilemma and purchase existing customers? I'm talking about customers already buying products and is handled by professional sales reps within the company. If everything else remains the same but for this simple change, would this add value to your life as an inspiring successful marketer?

Here is my recommendation to ALL MonaVie™ Independent reps:

- To acquire customers, you simply purchase them on a regular basis from your parent company. You do not have to market to them, you do not have to follow up with them, you do not have to process their orders, you do not have to hold their hand in any way. These customers are people who like the products, who purchase the products on a regular basis, and most likely have little or no interest in starting a home business. But that's OK, because you get commissions from their orders. Want more customers? Just buy them!

- You work as part of a powerful team to market your business opportunity on the Internet. You focus on getting good quality leads who are interested in joining your business as a distributor and participating in the team effort, not on acquiring customers.

There is a system available on the Internet today that makes the above scenarios possible. I know, because I experience it daily. It's great not worrying about marketing to acquire customers. All I do is buy them! This provides me with a growing source of reliable income while I concentrate on acquiring new business partners. The system is called The Home Business Marketing Group.

I invite you to take a look at this successful approach to growing your business by registering at http://homebusiness.healthfulchoice.com for a no-obligation preview of our business model.

This blog post is not a slam against MonaVie™; I deeply respect this company and its leadership who is leading the charge against proper skincare. MonaVie™ offers an array of products that promotes just that. Please read on to see how MonaVie™ positions itself as a premier company with great products. My only concern lies within the home-based business model and them promoting the purchasing of leads. I hope you will find this post helpful and inspiring towards your future endeavors.

MonaVie™ Leads

If you have a MonaVie™ business and are thinking about buying leads to promote your business, well, you may want to rethink that idea. You see, I have bought many leads, and spend thousands of dollars on those leads, but in all actuality, they were non-productive, expensive and I saw absolutely no ROI on my investments.

I found this article about buying MonaVie leads on ezine artilces. Read what Burke Jones has to say about buying MonaVie leads. To read the entire artilce, go to http://ezinearticles.com/?Buying-MonaVie-Leads-is-a-Fools-Game&id=996510.

As a Mona Vie distributor, you are obviously in constant search for new leads to grow your MLM business. Most companies and uplines will tell you to head over to the nearest lead distributor and purchase some "top quality" leads for your MonaVie business.

Hold on to your wallet! Buying MonaVie leads is the quickest way to failure that I have ever seen. Sure it works for a very small percentage of distributors, but typically they have spent a bundle to learn the techniques and tactics required for this success. There are two reasons that your upline recommends buying leads for your Mona-Vie business - leverage and money...

...You see it works for your upline, because they have hundreds of suckers under them just like you (emphasis added). If a small percentage of their downline manage to sponsor someone it adds up to massive growth for their business. Unfortunately, you will probably never experience the same success...

...The real industry secret is that your upline is probably making a commission on every lead purchase you make...do you think that would add up to some serious cash? I bet it would!

You see buying leads is a fools game, just as Burke Jones's article suggests. I don't know about you, but I HATE buying leads. That is why I buy customers, NOT Leads.

Arbonne Leads | 720

Arbonne™ is a direct selling company that operates in the United States, its territories and in Canada. Arbonne markets an exclusive line of high-quality skin care, color cosmetics, nutrition, weight loss and aromatherapy products based on natural and botanical principles.

Testimonial found on the Internet:

Oh my goodness people!!!!! Have you truly tried any other products than Oil of olay. You are missing the point of Arbonne products. The first thing you notice is they have little to no sent which means they arent synthetic or perfumed. In ten years of Spa business, the only products that have come close to performing in the same class as Arbonne cost double what you pay for Arbonne. You have to break things down sometimes. Think about the products you buy at the stores; You are paying for Mass production, Marketing, Models, Packaging, Distribution, Sales Staff, and then the product.

The company is proud to state that all the Arbonne™ products are produced with the best natural ingredients such as herbs ad fruits.

The Arbonne™ family is made up of thousands of individuals working to make their dreams come true. Through sales incentives and rewards, travel opportunities, a generous Success Plan and great products, Arbonne offers a unique opportunity that can help make your vision for the future a reality.

There are two basic ways in which an Arbonne™ Independent Consultant can earn compensation:
1. Through retail profit on sales of products purchased at discounted prices from the Company.
2. Through overrides and bonuses paid on a Consultant's product sales volume and the sales volume of other Consultants on their team ..also known as their downline.

As with any other sales opportunity, the compensation earned by Arbonne™ Independent Consultants varies significantly. The cost to become a Consultant is very low and people become Consultants for various reasons. Most notably, people become Consultants because it allows them to purchase our products at the lowest possible price. Others join to earn extra part-time income, while others join on a full-time, professional basis.

Generating meaningful compensation as an Arbonne™ Independent Consultant requires considerable time, effort and commitment. This is not a get-rich-quick program and there are no guarantees of financial success. It is an opportunity that is shared by thousands who have chosen to embrace the Arbonne™ products and/or business. The success or failure of each Arbonne™ Independent Consultant, like any other independent business, depends on each Independent Consultant's own skills and personal effort. Arbonne™ is a product-driven company that strongly encourages people to try our products as customers before building a business.

You can become an Arbonne™ Consultant for only $29. That fee includes the start-up kit! With effort and enthusiasm, you can become financially stable. If you have the desire to realize your dreams and change your life, you can't find a better opportunity than Arbonne™!

Arbonne's compensation plan, the Arbonne™ SuccessPlan, is one of the most dynamic and generous in the network marketing industry. From your first great day in the Arbonne™ business, you can begin to earn money. Whether your goal is to develop a retail Client base, build and train an extensive network organization, or a combination of both, the Arbonne SuccessPlan offers you lucrative rewards.

Leadership skills determine the level of your success and the success of your team. Learn how to develop strong leadership skills and apply them to your Arbonne business, and watch your business grow.

Top network marketers promote buying leads to build a successful Arbonne business. According to many networkers, buying leads simply does not work. You need tremendous telemarketing skills to build your business through buying leads. Leads very rarely turn into reps. You will need to call many reps to find one that is remotely interested in your Arbonne business, not to mention your products.

I don't buy leads. I buy customers. They cost $50 each. Half of what the results of buying leads conversion cost without all the time spent. I don't have to make any calls. I don't get rejected. I do not have good telemarketing skills. I don't need them. And when I buy customers, they appear in my downline with out any effort on my part. And the 10% of my downline that are distributors do the same thing. Man-O-man we are happy buying customers not leads!

Vemma Leads | 713

Vemma®, a powerful liquid antioxidant program!

Vemma's Essential Minerals® provides what the modern, convenience-driven diet may be lacking: over 65 major, trace and ultra-trace minerals in an ionic liquid form. The minerals are extracted from nutrient-dense plant vegetation that has been undisturbed for thousands of years. Then they are broken down into a bioavailable (body-ready) ionic state. This means the minerals are reduced to the smallest component that minerals can exist in and still retain their physical properties and are suspended into a completely dissolved liquid form. The result is a 100% ionic liquid mineral product that is easy for the body to use. This is important because as we age, the ability of the body to handle minerals declines, so body-ready minerals can be very helpful.

Mangosteen, known as the "Queen of All Fruits" has been used for centuries by Asian health practitioners for its nutritional benefits and delicious flavor. Combine the antioxidant-rich power of mangosteen with vitamins, plant-sourced minerals, organic glyconutrient-rich aloe vera and decaffeinated organic green tea and you've created the ultimate nutritional foundation.

You can get started on a great-tasting path to ultimate nutrition with the Vemma Nutrition Program® for only $60 USD plus shipping. Enjoy the convenience of Autoship to have your Vemma® products delivered automatically to your door every month.

The Vemma® family is made up of thousands of individuals working to make their dreams come true. Through sales incentives and rewards, a generous Compensation Plan, and great products, Vemma® offers a unique opportunity that can help make anyone's vision for the future a reality.

Vemma® Leads are people who are interested in finding out more about a Vemma® business opportunity and have taken a "Tour". The Lead first fills in a 15 field questionnaire. They then submit their information and are instantly taken to a Vemma® Builder Confirmation Page where they can take a free tour, and become a prospect.

The Lead's information you receive is instantly entered into the rep's Vemma ®Builder contact manager. The rep is immediately notified by email that a new Lead has arrived. A promo code will show up as "PI", and the new prospect then automatically begins receiving VemmaBuilder auto-responder Messages.

Vemma® recommends that a phone call is made to the new Leads as soon as possible. According to Vemma®, a "Hot Lead" is the best kind of person to speak with about a business opportunity. Well, the Leads are received SECONDS after they press the submit button requesting more information on a home based business opportunity. If they are called soon enough, they are probably still taking the tour. According to Vemma®, the leads just don't get any Hotter than that! Have you heard this before?

I HATE Leads! I don't putrchase leads, I purchase customers!

They cost $50 each. Half of what the results of buying leads conversion cost without all the time spent. I don't have to make any calls. I don't get rejected. I do not have good telemarketing skills. I don't need them. And when I buy customers, they appear in my downline with out any effort on my part

And the 10% of my downline that are distributors do the same thing. Man-O-Man we are happy buying customers not leads!

Nu Skin Leads | 710

Nu Skin™ Enterprises, Inc. is a global direct selling company that operates in more than 40 countries throughout North and South America, Asia and Europe. The Company operates in three divisions: (1) the Nu Skin™ division markets premium quality skin care and personal care products; (2) the Pharmanex™ division is a science-based developer of nutrition products; and (3) the Big Planet™ division markets and distributes Internet, technology, ebusiness tools and digital photography products.

The Company markets its products through a network of independent distributors. For purposes of this summary, an Active Distributor is a distributor who placed an order for products, promotional materials or services or renewed their distributorship during the most recent three-month period. In the United States, the Company had an average of 52,887 Active Distributors during 2006.

Distributors can also earn commissions based on the sale of products by a distributor and his/her downline of sponsored distributors in all markets where the Company does business. The Company also sells promotional materials that do not generate commissions to distributors.

In 2006 the Company paid approximately $480,136,000 in commissions and sales compensation globally. In the same period, the Company paid approximately $83,712,937 in commissions to distributors residing in the United States.

Most likely, if your building a business, you are on a search for "MLM Leads For your Nu Skin Enterprises" business. Buying leads is what most MLM leaders teach their sponsored reps. That IS the philosophy of the MLM industry, sad to say.

Nu Skin™ Leads

Staying with the theme of the previous post, I found another web site of a company selling leads. If you thought the last post was interesting, this one may even shine a little more light on the subject of buying leads. This company is called Apache Leads. Below is what they say about their leads. See if this sounds familiar.

Apache Leads provides our clients with honest, reliable, innovative Network Marketing lead solutions. Providing our clients with cost effective pricing on MLM Leads, Network Marketing leads, debt consolidation leads, real time tour taking mlm signups, real time leads, surveyed leads, opt-in leads, phone interviewed leads and more has been a hallmark of our success.

We supply fresh MLM leads that close. We service many happy clients and conduct massive campaigns that generate high quality leads, Ameriplan leads, Coastal Vacation leads, Herbalife leads, Ecoquest leads, Xango leads, Vemma leads, MLM leads, Mannatech leads, Noni leads, Morinda leads, Neways leads, Nu Skin leads, Melaleuca leads, Monavie leads, Fruta Vida leads, Prepaid legal leads, Usana leads, Synergy leads, Eventis leads, Emerald Passport leads, Legacy leads, 4life leads, Lifeforce leads, Nikken leads, Mentors in Motion leads, Better Universe leads, Liberty League leads, and many more MLM leads.

Apache Leads is a US based business and we do have a US office.

We have been in the leads business since 2000, servicing the US and worldwide markets. So we have a lot of experience to make sure we are able to provide the very best in MLM Leads.

Here is some text from one of the pages relating to US real time leads:

US Real Time Leads: Real Time Leads, the absolute BEST MLM leads for calling! Now, you can talk with hot prospects the very instant they have expressed an interest in receiving info on a home business.

No more calling someone that has already talked to ten other network marketers or someone who requested info so long ago they have forgotten about it.

US Real-time MLM leads mean that the instant a prospect fills out a generic home business form on the internet, expressing interest in a home-based business and hits the "Submit" button, that info is emailed to you. If you're fast, they may still be on that website when you call them! Now, that's a hot lead.

And these US real Time leads will only cost you $4.90 each, if you buy 10. The price goeas all the way down to $4.36 if you where to buy 100. One Hundred US Real Time leads for $436.00. That's insane. I could buy eight customers, people already buing products, and still have some money left over.

Who cares if I get all of their informatiom, which includes;
First & Last Name
*Street, City, State, Post Code
*Email Address
*Telephone
*Date Of Birth
*Gender
*Best Time To Call
*Reason They Are Looking For A Home Business
*How Much They Are Willing To Invest
*How Many Hours They Can Put To The Business
*Their Interest Level
*Desired Monthly Income
*Date/Time Stamp & IP Address

What good is this information if the leads are young children, if the phone numbers are disconnected, or if the person has already been contacted by several marketers? Again, the reason I don't buy leads!

As mentioned several times within my posts, I don't buy leads; I buy customers. They cost $50 each. Half of what the results of buying leads conversion cost without all the time spent. I don't have to make any calls. I don't get rejected. I do not have good telemarketing skills. I don't need them. And when I buy customers, they appear in my downline with out any effort on my part.

And the 10% of my downline that are distributors do the same thing. Man-O-Man we are happy buying customers not leads!

Big Planet™ - A System that Works

Big Planet™ has a system that can work and can get results providing you put forth the effort. Big Planet's system is the same one used by Nu Skin™ and Pharmanex™, which has generated more millionaires than any other network marketing company. As mentioned previously, Big Planet™ is the only company where their main products are all technology based. They have a niche in an exciting marketplace.

Big Planet™ relies on word-of-mouth-advertising, where independent representatives contact family and friends to share their experience with their products. It's like recommending a good restaurant, movie, or book. The reps will sell the company's products to individuals that are interested, and if not interested, they will ask for referrals. The reps main source of leads is through referrals; it's like an expanded warm market, if you will. Family, friends, leads and referrals do not always turn into customers, because most of them don't have the same excitement about the products.

Let's take a look at Big Planet™ from a different perspective. What is Big Planet™ marketed their own products through different forms of media, such as, television infomercials, radio spots and magazine or newspaper ads, and sold their products to the end user. Wouldn't the individuals who bought their products be a customer of Big Planet™? Once they became a customer of Big Planet™, Big Planet™ could then sell their customers to independent reps who would then handle the customer relations and customer service. If this scenario happened, wouldn't it make a little more sense?

Well that's exactly what we do over at Home Business Marketing Group. Our leaders have put together a marketing plan that is driven by one of the largest juggernauts found anywhere on the Internet. The Veretekk system is that juggernaut and the driving force behind this adventure. We are in the process of accepting applicants, yes, we do interview all interested applicants, to join us in this undertaking.

MonaVie Leads | 427

According to the UCLA Center for Human Nutrition, the four most consumed plant foods (fruits or vegetables) in America are:
French fries, ketchup, pizza sauce and iceberg lettuce!

Is it any wonder that obesity has become an epidemic and that even children are now afflicted with many of the "lifestyle" diseases once reserved for older people?

Ok, we may all know we should eat more fruits and vegetables, but lives are busy. Quick meals are often a necessity. Fresh produce is expensive in many locales. We tend to get bored with apples, bananas and oranges. Parents don't have time to enforce healthy eating habits upon their children.

Enter MonaVie™, an exquisite health drink, destined to make a profound difference in the lives of countless people of the world. The formulators of MonaVie™, driven by a passion for helping humanity and bringing abundance into the lives of many, have created the consummate blend of health-promoting fruits from the four corners of the earth.

MonaVie's roots reach deep into the Amazon where the rainforest is home to one-third of the world's species of animal and plant life and where deforesting is threatening habitat and ecosystems.

MonaVie's most renowned ingredient, the legendary Acai Berry, is one of the few Brazilian exports that can directly protect the mighty rainforest itself. As word of the extraordinary benefits of drinking MonaVie reaches across nations and oceans, harvesting the rainforest FRUITS will become wiser Brazilian commerce than harvesting the trees themselves.

Looking for a business opportunity? MonaVie™ has one of the most innovative and lucrative compensation plans ever devised, and it is hailed by some of the top network marketers around the world. It allows for multiple ways to earn weekly income. The Compensation plan uses the power of a New Generation Binary and its unlimited depth feature, with the wealth-creating feature of unlimited width.

If you have a MonaVie business and are thinking about buying leads to promote your business, you may want to rethink your strategy. You see, I have bought many leads, and spend thousands of dollars on those leads, but in all actuality, they were non-productive, expensive and I saw absolutely no ROI on my investments.

Here are some clear facts regarding leads and network marketing. Most MLM companies operate in the same manner. You may even know what I'm talking about! A lot of business leaders tell you to buy leads from them to build your business? Well, let me ask you a question here. How much money have you spent in building your MonaVie business? Hundreds, or perhaps even thousands of dollars?

What if I told you there was a better and more exciting way to build your business? What if you could buy customers, instead of leads? Would that be a revolutionary approach to the same old problem that ALL network marketers face?

If you would like to learn more about buying customers, just fill in the contact form and come to our meetings on Saturday afternoons. You will learn the right approach to building your business on the net.

Quixtar Leads | 413

Quixtar Leads, Are You Buying Them?

Quixtar™ has a system that gets results providing you put forth the effort and follow a set marketing plan. Quixtar's system is also used by Nu Skin™, Quixtar's parent company, and Pharmanex™, which has generated more millionaires than any other network marketing company. Quixtar™ is the only company where their main products are all technology based. They have created their niche in an exciting marketplace, technology.

Quixtar™ is an excellent company, but like many other MLM or Networking companies the structure is set up to create huge costs on the distributors and little on the company. These companies try to let the individuals think that they are in their own business, then encourage them to spend their own money in marketing to attract their own customers. This forces the so called "new business owner" to spend their own money for leads or reverse marketing systems in hopes of bringing in new distributors. Throughout this whole process the marketing cost for Quixtar™ is minimal.

Also companies like Quixtar™ are not equipped to sell to the end user (the person consuming the products), but expect the distributor to do the job for them. This is very difficult since advertising and marketing can be very expensive. The traditional way of acquiring customers is to purchase leads. The independent reps then have to cold call the leads, and try to get people interested in their company or products. Another strategy is to bring in friends and family to the business and hopefully they will do the same. The end result of these combined strategies is rejection and a very small percentage of people signing up. If these particular strategies worked the majority of people entering a MLM or network marketing business would be highly successful. Instead they are not!

Buy Customers Not Quixtar Leads?

There is a new business model that eliminates all of the excessive expense and allows its business affiliates to purchase customers, individuals that are consuming the products. When purchasing a customer incentive lead the business affiliate begins to derive commissions from that customer right away. No MLM or network marketing company is allowed to sell directly to the consumer; products must go through the company's independent distributors. The company bears the expense of customer acquisition by having mechanisms in place that sell to the customer. The company then passes the customer onto their business affiliates for considerably less than the cost of a sold lead.

Although Quixtar™ and many other MLM or Network Marketing Companies have good products their systems are usually lacking structure, with regards to enabling their distributors to create substantial revenue. If you would like to learn about buying customers instead of leads, I would like to invite you to a live online meeting. You can hear and see a presentation on how the system works. If you're interested, please go to http://homebusiness.healthfulchoice.com and sign up. You will receive an email with the password to get into our Saturday meeting.

If you have any desire to have a successful Internet business, DO NOT pass up this opportunity. The presentation is free and informative! I have looked at many different business models, but I have never seen one as user friendly as this before. This business model surely is for the "little guy". If you're still interested after attending the meeting, please feel free to contact me. I will explain this opportunity to you further.

Send Out Cards Leads | 46

Have you ever wondered - If there was a better way to build your Send Out Cards® business than buying leads?

Have you had any success buying Send Out Cards Leads and trying to convince them to join you in your Send Out Cards® business? Personally, I hate calling leads. I have discovered that buying customers instead of buying leads is a much better way to build a home business. I don't have the expense of buying leads and making long distance phone calls only to get rejected. Buying customers that are already purchasing the product is the only way I will do business now. You can go to http://homebusiness.healthfulchoice.com and see why.

Send Out Cards® is a great company for many distributors. Send Out Cards®offers an exciting business opportunity. Anyone with a passion for success can join one of the most respected network marketing companies in the industry. Send Out Cards® is a custom card company that allows you to create masterpieces for you to share with the world.

There is a slight problem with most network marketing companies. The Send Out Cards® leaders, like all other MLM company leaders, teach duplication. Here's the problem; duplication is a myth. Building a large organization through duplication just does not happen. Why? Not all people are the same. Each person has his or her own unique gifts, talents, and passions. Not everyone is a great recruiter, which is what it takes to build a massive organization. You may be the best recruiter for your Send Out Cards® leads, but can you train and retain all of your Send Out Cards® distributors to be able to do what you can do? Simply stated, you cannot! Duplication DOES NOT work!

I have two suggestions for you: 1. Stop spending your hard earned marketing dollars on leads, and 2. Start building a business through delegation, not duplication. Consider the concept of buying customers, not leads, so you can focus on your team, not selling products, or recruiting people not interested in their own business. Let me explain!

The Home Business Marketing Group, http://homebusiness.healthfulchoice.com, has the unique approach of buying customers and growing your business through a large retail customer base. That's paying customers already purchasing your products; they are not a lead. The concept of buying customers, not leads, ensures long term residual income for the life of the customer relationship.

The Home Business Marketing Group teaches delegation, not duplication, to build a large organization. The Home Business Marketing Group is the first off-shoot of Its Good Business, architects of the marketing plan, now being implemented by The Home Business Marketing Group. Members of the Home Business Marketing Group work together for the good of the whole team. This synergistic approach is something you will never see in other MLM companies. Quite honestly, you will see the exact opposite, every members fighting over prospects.

Take the right approach to building a large business through teamwork, and stop spending your time trying to convince the few interested leads, you may get, to take action and make a purchase. Customers already know what they want and are sold on your product. It makes good business sense to buy customers and stop buying leads. It truly is the ultimate way to build a business.

This is free information by one of the most successful people in the industry, Tom Prendergast, CEO Inetekk. Do yourself, not to mention your business, a favor and listen as Tom lays it out step by step in plain speak. No bragging or boasting - Just fact.

MonaVie Leads | 324

MonaVie™ is an exquisite health drink packed with the power of acai berries, destined to make a profound difference in the lives of countless peoples of the world. The formulators of MonaVie™, driven by a passion for helping humanity and bringing abundance into the lives of many, have created the consummate blend of health-promoting fruits from the four corners of the earth.

This article is not to knock, or put down, MonaVie™, but rather to educate network marketers on the value of buying customers instead of buying leads.

Typically I don't write about companies that sell leads, but after an associate of mine got an email from Ryan Holland of customleads.net, I had to make my point clear about buying leads.

Whether you buy leads for Arbonne™, Quixtar®, MonaVie™, Send Out Cards™, Big Planet®, Vemma®, or any other MLM company, ALL leads are the same, WORTHLESS. Yes, I said it, buying leads is costly and a waste of your time and money.

I have bought leads in the past, and let me tell you, even though the company claims that the leads are fresh and exclusive to you, they have been sold several, if not hundreds of times. I have never called a lead where I was the first person to contact them. As a matter of fact, I may have been the tenth person to call a so called "Fresh Lead".

Buying Arbonne™, Quixtar®, MonaVie™, Send Out Cards™, Big Planet®, or Vemma® leads will never help you grow your business. If you are determined, and a great telemarketer, you may get some positive results, but for the majority on home based business owners, it will never work.

While searching Google for MLM leads, I came across the web site of customleads.net. Here is an excerpt of what they say about their "Phone Verefied Leads":

"Our phone verified leads are red hot, qualified prospects waiting for your phone call. For any business that relies on networking or MLM, our pre-verified leads are guaranteed to be fresh, targeted and highly responsive, allowing you to maximize your conversion rates and achieve a real return on investment.

Qualifying leads can be one of the most time consuming and cost-intensive parts of running a networking or MLM business. With our pre-verified phone leads, you can be sure you're targeting interested, qualified prospects that are interested and eager to listen to what you have to say.

Leads are verified through our call center, and are told to expect a call from a representative about a home-based business opportunity - in fact, we find most of our leads actively look forward to speaking to you. Our prospects are screened by our call centre staff to establish their level of interest, before we go on to ensure they're good enough quality to pass on to you.

What's more, each an every lead has opted explicitly to receive your call, and has a real interest in getting started in business. Nowhere else can you find genuine, high quality leads this responsive."

After doing additional searches, I came across this article regarding the leads purchased from customleads.net:

"I found this lead company, customleads.net, while surfing the net. They claimed to have leads specific to my direct marketing business. Here is their exact claim on the website:

Phone Interviewd Ameriplan Leads
We provide Double Opt In - Called - Verified - Prospects For Your Ameriplan Business! We will send you PROSPECTS who have shown a strong interest in Ameriplan and have requested to be contacted by an Ameriplan Representative. Each prospect is called, interviewed and given an overview of the business by one of our Call Center Reps. This makes them a much easier prospect to close.

Benefits of our Ameriplan Leads:

Double Optin Interested Prospect
Prospect has been called and interviewed by one of our call center reps and has been given details about Ameriplan. You only receive prospects who have shown a strong interest in Ameriplan and have asked to be contacted by an Ameriplan Representative. Prospect is waiting for your call. Leads are Exclusive to you.

Our Ameriplan Leads are GUARANTEED!
We GUARANTEE you will get exactly what you Ordered! Actual People interested in your Ameriplan Offer!

Well, I did not get what I ordered. The very first lead I called was a child. If, as they claim, they interviewed these people on the telephone, they would have known this. When I complained, and asked for my money back, they told me they have a no refund policy. Even though it clearly states above that these leads are guaranteed. DO NOT buy leads from this company. They are ripping people off!!

Debbie

Here is the price you would pay for such leads from customleads.net:

Quantity  -  Cost Each  -  Total Purchase
25 Phone Verified Leads  -  2.00  -  $50.00
50 Phone Verified Leads  -  2.00  -  $100.00
100 Phone Verified Leads  -  1.80  -  $180.0

Leads are just that, LEADS! Very rarely will they turn into customers, and very few, if any, will ever join you in your business.

I don't know about your, but these leads are very expensive, not to mention worthless. That is why I buy customers, NOT leads. And any intelligent network marketer should do the same. This is only one example of the many companies selling leads on the Internet; they all claim the same thing. They are nothing but liars! They are just trying to rip you off!

STOP BUYING LEADS! THERE IS A BETTER WAY; BUY CUSTOMERS!

MonaVie Leads | 330

Solutions and Benefits for the MonaVie™ Representative

Through association and compliance any struggling MonaVie™ representative can succeed.

This post contains practical information on the benefits of the Network Marketer without Hype, Distractions and Wordiness. There is a 99.9% chance you are building your MonaVie™ business through the process of buying MonaVie™ LEADS, then converting these leads into MonaVie™ Reps in order to create a downline, several levels deep. The process of buying MonaVie leads is typical, not only with MonaVie™, but throughout the MLM industry. Top MLM leaders teach and continue to scream DUPLICATION, DUPLICATION, and more DUPLICATION, and buying leads is the foundation of this business model. Ironically, buying leads is the obstacle that stands in the way of success for the average marketer. Why? Most unsuspecting newbie marketers want nothing to do with learning the art of sales. Cold-Calling Leads is a brutal task you MUST endure to be successful in the typical MLM model.

Let me share a little information about buying MonaVie leads. If you purchased 10,000 Leads all you have to do is do the math concerning the time management. And that's just it. We consider our time just as valuable as money. After calling 100 leads and getting 100 rejections, that's 2 to 3 hours we will never get back. Common sense tells us this concept does not add value to our life and we discontinued the practice. The average marketer will jump from one opportunity to another hoping buying leads are not the foundation to become successful. Unfortunately, they find out that it is. They try once more to put on the sales hat, this time they'll purchase some motivational tape or book to stay the course. After a while, they are back where they started, frustrated without any returns on their investment.

So what's the solution?

In your typical brick and mortar business the cry goes out for location, location, location. So what would be the equivalent for a successful Online Business? It could very well be; customers, customers, customers, and I have a strong case to back that statement up. Online Marketing has lost its innocence by reason of the massive amount of scams and absurd programs that flooded the MLM industry. Venturing into these waters can be very nerve racking; even the seasoned veteran MLMer shutters at some of the programs out there, not to mention the novice opportunist. Reputation, stability and adaptation will interest the skeptic which is the key to surviving in this industry. There's an old concept that is emerging ever so quietly in this industry and it will change the core of the typical MLM theory.

How much more appealing would it be if you could bypass the Leads dilemma and purchase existing customers? I'm talking about customers already buying products and is handled by professional sales reps within the company. If everything else remains the same but for this simple change, would this add value to your life as an inspiring successful marketer?

Here is my recommendation to ALL MonaVie™ Independent reps:

- To acquire customers, you simply purchase them on a regular basis from your parent company. You do not have to market to them, you do not have to follow up with them, you do not have to process their orders, you do not have to hold their hand in any way. These customers are people who like the products, who purchase the products on a regular basis, and most likely have little or no interest in starting a home business. But that's OK, because you get commissions from their orders. Want more customers? Just buy them!

- You work as part of a powerful team to market your business opportunity on the Internet. You focus on getting good quality leads who are interested in joining your business as a distributor and participating in the team effort, not on acquiring customers.

There is a system available on the Internet today that makes the above scenarios possible. I know, because I experience it daily. It's great not worrying about marketing to acquire customers. All I do is buy them! This provides me with a growing source of reliable income while I concentrate on acquiring new business partners. The system is called The Network Marketing Paradigm Group.

I invite you to take a look at this successful approach to growing your business by registering at http://networkmarketing.aboutleads.net for a no-obligation preview of our business model.

This blog post is not a slam against MonaVie™; I deeply respect this company and its leadership who is leading the charge against proper skincare. MonaVie™ offers an array of products that promotes just that. Please read on to see how MonaVie™ positions itself as a premier company with great products. My only concern lies within the home-based business model and them promoting the purchasing of leads. I hope you will find this post helpful and inspiring towards your future endeavors.

MonaVie's most renowned ingredient, the legendary Acai Berry, is one of the few Brazilian exports that can directly protect the mighty rainforest itself.

You may earn Executive Check Match not only on Executives found on each of your personal enrollment tree legs but on Distributors at the various Star ranks as well. Never before has a plan been developed that so richly rewards Distributors for building both depth and width!

MonaVie™ Leads

If you have a MonaVie™ business and are thinking about buying leads to promote your business, well, you may want to rethink that idea. You see, I have bought many leads, and spend thousands of dollars on those leads, but in all actuality, they were non-productive, expensive and I saw absolutely no ROI on my investments.

I found this article about buying MonaVie leads on ezine artilces. Read what Burke Jones has to say about buying MonaVie leads. To read the entire artilce, go to http://ezinearticles.com/?Buying-MonaVie-Leads-is-a-Fools-Game&id=996510.

As a Mona Vie distributor, you are obviously in constant search for new leads to grow your MLM business. Most companies and uplines will tell you to head over to the nearest lead distributor and purchase some "top quality" leads for your MonaVie business.

Hold on to your wallet! Buying MonaVie leads is the quickest way to failure that I have ever seen. Sure it works for a very small percentage of distributors, but typically they have spent a bundle to learn the techniques and tactics required for this success. There are two reasons that your upline recommends buying leads for your Mona-Vie business - leverage and money...

...You see it works for your upline, because they have hundreds of suckers under them just like you (emphasis added). If a small percentage of their downline manage to sponsor someone it adds up to massive growth for their business. Unfortunately, you will probably never experience the same success...

...The real industry secret is that your upline is probably making a commission on every lead purchase you make...do you think that would add up to some serious cash? I bet it would!

You see buying leads is a fools game, just as Burke Jones's article suggests. I don't know about you, but I HATE buying leads. That is why I buy customers, NOT Leads.

Building A Home Based Business with MonaVie™

As the Internet matures, so too has the way in which home based business professionals discover new and innovative ways to promote their products or services. It's funny when you look at snail mail today; its such an old way of doing business compared to email, blogging, and the relatively new Blackberries.

MonaVie™ is a wonderful company with fantastic products, great leadership, and a generous compensation plan.

MonaVie™ juice is an incredible product. Just imagine drinking juice, to improve your health? Drinking MonaVie™ juice is that simple to make positive changes in your health. We all know we should eat more fruits and vegetables. But lives are busy. Quick meals are often a necessity. Fresh produce is expensive in many locales. We tend to get bored with apples, bananas and oranges. Parents don't have time to enforce healthy eating habits upon their children.

MonaVie™ offers the most innovative and dynamic compensation plan in the industry. With 8 Ways to Earn Income and 50 percent of the sales volume paid out in distributor commissions, MonaVie is a powerfully rewarding opportunity!

MonaVie™ leverages today's most effective form of distribution-relationship marketing. With this person-to-person approach, you can share the benefits of the MonaVie independent business opportunity with others and be rewarded for doing so, based on your sales and the product sales of those in the organization you helped create.

If I join this opportunity, should I buy MonaVie Leads to build my business?

As the Internet matures, many individuals and companies are recommending their distributors buy leads, including MonaVie leads. They believe if they buy the so called fresh and responsive MonaVie Leads from lead brokers, this, in turn, will help build a long term and stable residual income. In my opinion, ALL lead brokers are the same. They take the MonaVie leads you purchased, and re-sell them to several other unsuspecting business people. Then they take those leads and re-sell them to several other lead broker companies. This is a never ending cycle within the leads marketing companies. No matter what they tell you, they will re-sell your MonaVie leads over and over again.

With that in mind, the questions that you should be asking yourself prior to buying any leads are as follows:
Should I buy MonaVie leads to build my business?
What is the ROI (return on investment) that I can expect from purchasing MonaVie Leads?
How many other people are being sold the same leads, even though the leads are promoted as being fresh and responsive?

Are you tired of the hype, lies and misrepresentation from lead brokers? Why not consider the alternative?

Never Buy MonaVie Leads Again . . . Buy Customers Not MonaVie Leads . . . No More Cold Calling

Enter the Home Business Marketing Group! They teach you how to buy customers Not leads to build your home business. These are not distributors; these a real customers who want to buy products. It even gets better! You don't have to advertise for these customers or even talk to them.

We build as a team, so you will be following a business model of delegation, not duplication (what other busineeses teach), that the rest of the world utilizes to become successful.
