URGENT BULLETIN

New Formula Quietly Developed
By Four Renowned Medical Doctors …

Provides an 'Insurance Policy' Against Age-Accelerating, Energy-Sapping Health Gaps Plaguing Those Over 50

It's not easy to get four world-acclaimed medical doctors in different fields to sit down and agree on anything. In fact, some might say it's a bit like herding cats.

That's particularly true when these doctors come from opposite ends of the healing spectrum — conventional medicine and alternative medicine.

However, four highly-regarded M.D.s recently set aside their philosophical differences to solve a common problem plaguing so many of their patients who had reached midlife or beyond.

These are the type of folks who would come into their doctor's office with complaints and questions such as:

"Doc, can you help me feel good again? There are so many more things I want to do in life."

"It's so frustrating — I just don't have the energy I once had."

"Doc, I know I don't eat the best diet, but what else can I do to stay healthy for as many years as possible?"

"I'm starting to feel my age — I can't even get the house cleaned in one stint, or take care of the grandkids without wearing myself out."

Most people today try to "stop time" by concentrating on their appearance. They spend thousands of dollars on face lifts, Botox, tummy tucks, and superficial beauty treatments. All in an effort to feel young again.

All four members of our medical team know these people are missing the boat.

All the docs agree that the real way to minimize the effects of the aging process is to start at the beginning — with your cells and the micronutrients they need to function adequately.

Take your heart cells, for example.

Your heart never takes a day off. To function well over an entire lifetime, renowned cardiologist Dr. Chauncey Crandall knows your heart demands adequate vitamins and minerals such as vitamin D, vitamin E, vitamin C, folate, and calcium. And a sufficient amount of the mineral magnesium is critical to ensure a normal heartbeat and blood pressure.

And what about your brain cells?

Former neurosurgeon turned natural health advocate Dr. Russell Blaylock knows your brain has very high requirements for energy. That's why it needs a constant supply of micronutrients to meet its needs. Researchers have documented the importance of vitamin E, the B vitamins, vitamin C, zinc, magnesium, and other nutrients for healthy memory, cognition, and mood.

Unfortunately, those of us over 50
often have trouble meeting our needs for these micronutrients.

After 50, your nutritional needs change. By this time, you have a diminished ability to absorb certain nutrients from food, particularly vitamin B12 and magnesium.

Experts also caution that older adults may be lacking in key nutrients such as vitamin D, potassium, chromium, zinc, calcium, and the B vitamins folate, thiamin, and niacin. They also need more B vitamins and dietary antioxidants than younger people.

There's another common issue quite troublesome for those of us over 50. While older adults tend to take more medications for our ailment, these drugs can prevent proper absorption of vitamins and minerals.

What this means is that relying on diet alone to provide you with all the nutrients you need may not be the smartest move, particularly once you reach middle age.

There's a convenient solution
for those of us over 50.

Harvard scientists reviewed 35 years' worth of vitamin research, and published their findings in the Journal of the American Medical Association. Researchers concluded that the majority of adults (in all adult age groups) do not consume an optimal amount of vitamins by diet alone. So they made a recommendation:

Harvard researchers: Every adult should take a multivitamin daily as a safe and inexpensive way to optimize health.

And while vitamins are never a substitute for healthy eating, the Harvard School of Public Health website gives similar counsel:

"A daily multivitamin is an inexpensive nutrition insurance policy. Try to take one every day."

Unfortunately, 3 out of 5 adults do not take multivitamins.

And even if you do use a multivitamin, how do you know if it's the highest quality and not just "expensive urine"?

Well, the Medix Select Advisory Team of four highly respected medical doctors agrees with the Harvard recommendations you just heard.

However, over their many combined years of clinical practice, they all ran into a number of common concerns:

  • Many of their patients wouldn't take vitamins because they didn't like to swallow 6 or 8 pills a day …

  • Many couldn't afford to buy a bunch of different bottles of vitamin pills to get all the nutrients they need …

  • Some over 40 or 50 had trouble remembering to take so many pills every day …

  • And others took multivitamins that were of poor or dubious quality, in effect wasting their money and gaining no benefit …

Plus, many multivitamins forget the missing link — antioxidants.

One of America's most recognized holistic medical physicians, Dr. David Brownstein, stresses how important it is to consume copious amounts of antioxidants. They not only help keep all your cells and organs functioning properly, but antioxidants also help minimize the effects of aging.

You've heard of free radicals — tiny unstable particles that damage or even destroy your cells and DNA.

You accumulate free radicals from your own metabolism working on a day-to-day basis, as well as from other normal body processes. Other things causing damaging free radicals include sunlight, pollution, vigorous exercise, junk food, and bad habits like smoking and drinking.

That's why you need a plentiful daily supply of antioxidants. They circulate around inside your body, neutralizing the free radicals attacking your cells.

In particular, researchers have found that antioxidants support the health of the mitochondria. These are the little energy factories in your cells.

Dr. Erika Schwartz is a specialist in longevity medicine — and in helping people recover the healthy levels of energy they once had. And she knows that the malfunctioning of these little energy factories is linked to premature aging and ill health.

— Just Pay $4.95 Shipping!

Luckily for you, some vitamins
pull double duty.

That's because some vitamins are actually antioxidants, too — including vitamin A, vitamin C, and vitamin E.

The B vitamin folate is an antioxidant vitamin. So is beta-carotene, the precursor to vitamin A.

Even vitamin D functions as an antioxidant, as does the trace mineral selenium.

Then there are the antioxidant phytochemicals, which are plant compounds found mostly in fruits and vegetables.

Most phytochemicals show antioxidant activity against free radical damage.

Our medical team — all tops in their respective fields — put their heads together. They researched different multivitamins on the market, but couldn't find any that met their high standards. They wanted specific nutrients, antioxidants, and phytochemicals — and, of course, all to be the highest quality.

So with their many decades of combined clinical experience, our doctors worked quietly behind the scenes to formulate their own comprehensive multivitamin — ALPHA32.

This comprehensive antioxidant-based multivitamin — ALPHA32 — promotes good health, vitality, energy, and overall well-being. Just what patients over 50 have been asking for …

Because multivitamins are so crucial to healthy aging, energy, and overall health, all four doctors insisted that the manufacturer, Medix Select, offer you a risk-free supply of ALPHA32 (a $39.95 value). Just cover a small $4.95 shipping fee to receive your bottle.

The doctor team is confident you will be so happy with ALPHA32, you'll want to add it to your daily health routine. That's why Medix Select is making you this generous offer today.

But you have no obligation to do so — ever. The choice is yours …

Put ALPHA32 to the test and decide for yourself.

Taking a high-quality multivitamin is one of the simplest ways you can support your health — and fend off accelerated aging.

It's easy. And it only takes a few seconds of your time each day.

Plus, it's inexpensive. Cheaper, in fact, than having a sweet treat daily — or drinking a cup of store-bought coffee. And certainly much healthier!

— Just Pay $4.95 Shipping!

ALPHA32 contains 32 key nutrients, including the antioxidant-containing vitamins A, C, E, D, and folate.

Other antioxidants in ALPHA32 include selenium, lutein, and lycopene.

Plus, you will also find a proprietary blend of 28 different natural fruits and vegetables for those all-important phytochemicals.

And to help cover any nutritional shortfalls, ALPHA32 contains broad nutritional support for your:

  • Brain and nervous system
  • Cardiovascular system
  • Immune system
  • Bone health
  • Thyroid health
  • Eye health
  • And your body's energy production

For added benefit, ALPHA32 also includes maitake mushroom extract. Maitake contains beta glucan, which emerging research indicates supports immune health.

Plus, ALPHA32 goes a step ahead of many vitamins by using the special process of enteric coating for improved nutrient absorption and bioavailability.

And here's something else that will please the pickiest of vitamin-takers: Unlike many multivitamins on the market today, you only need to take 2 tablets daily.

Here's what the Medical Advisory Team says about multivitamins and their new formula ALPHA32:

"With ALPHA32, I made sure we included essential nutrients, like magnesium, niacin, and vitamins A, C, D, and E to deliver critical support to your cardiovascular and circulatory system."

Chauncey Crandall, M.D.

"A simple daily dose of ALPHA32 provides powerful multi-faceted support for your health and overall well-being. I worked to ensure this supplement includes all the nutrients needed to promote cellular and body energy — and support crucial antioxidant activity."

Erika Schwartz, M.D.

"To be truly comprehensive nutritional support, I added choline, lycopene and lutein, as well as vitamins A, C, and E to ALPHA32's multivitamin formula. I wanted to make sure you received the benefits these nutrients provide for the health of your brain, nervous system, and eyes."

Russell Blaylock, M.D.

"I worked hard with my fellows on the Medix Select Advisory Board to ensure ALPHA32 will meet all your overall health needs, including targeted nutrients for your thyroid, bones, and immune system."

David Brownstein, M.D.

Did You Know that Many Well-Known Vitamins Are Actually Mass-Produced by BIG PHARMA?

Yes, it's true … Some of the very same companies that churn out pharmaceutical drugs create many of the popular and inexpensive vitamin supplements on the market.

Pharma giant Pfizer (formerly Wyeth) makes Centrum and other supplements. Bayer HealthCare (of aspirin fame) makes the well-known One-A-Day vitamin line.

Other Big Pharma companies that have been involved in selling nutritional supplements include Unilever, Novartis, and GlaxoSmithKline.

Of course, Big Pharma doesn't publicize the fact that while they frown upon natural medicine, they try to capitalize on it by manufacturing inexpensive vitamins.

If you are among those who currently take a vitamin supplement from a drug or grocery store or discount line, you might want to investigate who stands (or hides) behind it.

If these four eminent doctors, Harvard researchers, and satisfied users haven't convinced you yet …

Here are 7 vital reasons why you should consider giving ALPHA32 a try:

REASON #1: Unlike most multivitamins on the market, ALPHA32 is antioxidant-based.

It has the antioxidant-containing vitamins A (as beta-carotene), C, E, D, and folate.

Plus, you'll also find the antioxidant mineral selenium, important in heart health, immune health, and thyroid health.

And it also includes the phytochemical antioxidants lycopene and lutein.

Lycopene (found in tomatoes and watermelon) plays a role in promoting prostate health. Studies also show a correlation between lycopene intake and heart health in both men and women.

The carotenoid lutein is important to eye health. Unfortunately, research indicates that carotenoids within the macula of the eye decline with age. That's true even in healthy older individuals.

The fenugreek in ALPHA32 is another antioxidant. Animal models suggest this antioxidant herb supports healthy cholesterol levels and blood sugar.

Plus …

Don't forget the proprietary 28-ingredient fruit and vegetable blend you'll find in ALPHA32. Vegetables and fruits are primary sources for phytochemical antioxidants.

REASON #2: When it comes to choosing supplements to support health and provide antioxidants, quality matters.

Unfortunately, many nutritional supplements become contaminated with heavy metals, toxic pesticides, even prescription drugs. And FDA rules covering manufacturing quality don't apply to companies that supply vitamins and other raw ingredients.

That's why it's important to choose high-quality supplements — like those from Medix Select.

Medix Select tests their products for the right amount of active ingredients, and screens them for any potential contaminants.

Medix Select carefully determines the best method to deliver their premium supplements for maximum absorption. For example, with ALPHA32, they use a special process of enteric coating to resist stomach acids and improve nutrient absorption and bioavailability.

Product production takes place in a pharmaceutical-grade manufacturing facility that is FDA-approved and cGMP (good manufacturing practices) certified.

Medical doctors and certified chemists create Medix Select products based on scientific formulations. Ph.D. scientists test them for purity, conformity, strength, and composition.

Compare these quality factors to any discount multi you may find online or at your local drug, grocery, or discount store.

REASON #3: With ALPHA32, you get 32 powerful nutrients to support your health and help protect against vitamin shortfalls.

This is much easier — and much less expensive — than buying individual supplements. Can you imagine how much you would have to spend to buy these nutrients separately?

With ALPHA32, you get support for your immune system, brain, heart, bones, thyroid, eyes, and your body's energy production — all in just 2 tablets a day.

REASON #4: As you grow older, your nutritional needs change.

As you've seen, those over 50 lose the capacity to absorb certain nutrients from food, particularly vitamin B12. And older adults may have suboptimal levels of vitamin D, potassium, folate, thiamin, and niacin.

To make matters worse, many older people also have a reduced appetite. And many living on fixed incomes can't afford to buy enough fresh produce or other healthy food they need.

REASON #5: ALPHA32 provides you with a combination of antioxidants for optimal benefit.

Richard Passwater, Ph.D., author of the book The Antioxidants, states:

"Most of us in the field recommend that a person take a variety of antioxidants (a 'cocktail'), not just a single substance. The importance of synergism is that the antioxidant nutrients each contribute to the total protection. They work together in the antioxidant cycle … to protect against all types of free radicals … No one antioxidant can do all of this."

REASON #6: Taking a high-quality multivitamin helps fill in those nutritional gaps — and is one of the best actions you can take to support your health, particularly as you grow older.

It's a quick, easy, and inexpensive way to get multiple antioxidants and other important nutrients your body needs. You only need a few seconds a day.

REASON #7: Right now, you have the opportunity to give ALPHA32 a try at no cost other than a small $4.95 shipping fee.

Don't be one of those 3 out of 5 Americans who fail to support their health in this simple manner.

Of course, you should always consult with your doctor before beginning any new health supplement or changing your medications.

Special: Harvard & UCLA Reveal #1 Best Fruit for Improving Memory – Not Blueberries


SPONSOR

 

ADVERTORIAL

If your memory isn't as sharp as it used to be… or if you're having more embarrassing "senior moments"…

A NEW landmark study from Harvard Medical School, UCLA, and Cornell University has revealed that reversing age-related memory loss depends on improving blood circulation to your brain.

As you age, blood flow to your brain can dry up by as much as 26%.

This starves your brain cells of vital nutrients, oxygen, and energy – causing more than 32,000 brain cells to die every second.

What's worse, this can SHRINK your hippocampus – which is the "memory center" of your brain.

In fact, the researchers studying the aging brains of seniors found that the smaller their hippocampus was, the faster their memory declined!

But here's the good news…

One leading doctor on brain health has found an easy way to boost blood flow to your brain – by making a few simple changes to your daily regimen.

So here's a quick 3-second pop quiz for you:

What's the #1 science-backed fruit for reversing memory loss and mental decline?

Is it…

A. Blueberries
B. Watermelon
C. Strawberry
D. Mango
E. Avocado


(Click on the answer you think is right.)

Let me give you a hint: it's NOT avocado or blueberries.

The answer's tricky.

Gov. Greg Abbott directed the Texas Division of Emergency Management to activate state emergency resources ahead of severe storms expected to hit parts of the state over the weekend.

A storm system was expected to move through the state, with potential for severe weather from the Big Bend region to the Red River Valley. The system was expected to produce strong thunderstorms and heavy rainfall, with flash-flooding risk and possible tornadoes.

Resources at the ready include the state Department of Public Safety, Parks and Wildlife Department, and the Railroad Commission.

The storm also comes nearly five years to the day of the storm that nearly collapsed the state's power grid.

Gibson, who has volunteered her services, used her experience in facial reconstruction from minimal evidence in analyzing the doorbell camera footage from the case. She estimates the perpetrator is between their mid-30's and early 40's.

"I couldn't stop myself, I just couldn't stop myself, I wanted to help, I felt the pain. I've been in the room with [kidnap victims]… so I wanted to help them," she said.

She also holds the Guinness World Record for being the most successful forensic sketch artist.
