Product Highlights

Açai berries are rich in nutrients and contain essential fatty acids, amino acids, calcium, iron, protein, electrolytes, polyphenols, and vitamins.

Research shows that the açai berry has at least ten times more antioxidant activity than red wine and that consuming açai quickly boosts blood antioxidant capacity. Because the fruit is quite perishable, a quality extract is the most convenient method of absorbing its benefits.

• Promote heart health
• Boost blood antioxidant capacity
• Maintain healthy cell function

One capsule of our concentrated extract yields the equivalent of 2400 mg of regular açai powder.

Use your January savings code JN09SV to try out our new Açai Extract today! 

Resolved to Exercise

These ten resolutions can help you make 2009 the healthiest year yet!

Don't get stuck in a winter slump. Although you may feel less inclined to exercise as the weather gets cold and the days get shorter, sticking to an active routine will help see you through the season in good shape and maybe even a better mood. Wearing the right gear and choosing appropriate activities are the keys to successfully maintaining the routine through the winter.

Looking for a fun way to burn off a few extra calories or stay motivated with your fitness program? Participate in a Volksmarch or charity walk in your area. There are events throughout the U.S. all year round.

Did you know that walking slowly may burn more calories and lessen the strain on your joints? Check out walking tips, forums and articles.

One of the best leg exercises you can do is the squat, but make sure you know the correct form to protect your knees and back.

Exercise like walking will strengthen your leg muscles, including the hamstrings and quadriceps. Keeping your hamstrings flexible is important to avoid straining your lower back. This stretch increases flexibility while protecting the spine.

Health News Radar

We are quickly moving toward improved biotechnologies that can help extend healthy lifespan significantly. This issue highlights some of the breakthroughs and studies from the past years that are driving us towards Bridge Two.

	DNA Mapping Becomes More Affordable The cost of DNA sequencing has dropped by a factor of 10 every year for the last four years. In 2009, the cost will be just $5,000 and will bring us closer to the common use of chromosomal mapping to analyze disease susceptibility. Price competition between sequencing companies may bring the price under $1,000 sooner than expected. Here you can view a short video demonstrating the technology. http://blog.wired.com
	Biotech in 2008 The past year featured several breakthroughs in biotechnology, speeding our journey to Bridge Two, as described by Ray & Terry. Knowledge about the brain and its architecture, cellular switches and the availability of personalized genetic analysis all contributed useful tools for the future of health management.
	Heart Muscle Repaired with Stem Cells Researchers at Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh of UPMC have been able to effectively repair damaged heart muscle in an animal model using a novel population of stem cells they discovered that is derived from human skeletal muscle tissue.
	Breakthrough of 2008 Advances Bridge Progression Researchers showed two years ago that it was possible to erase a cell's memory and reprogramming its type. In 2008, scientists reprogrammed human cells into stem cells. The research was chosen by Science as 2008 Breakthrough of the Year. Cellular reprogramming has "Opened a new field of biology almost overnight and holds out hope of life-saving medical advances," said deputy news editor Robert Coontz.
	Home Grown Bones Scientists have developed a method of printing bones using calcium phosphate. The engineered material can be used in reconstructive surgery without the threat of rejection by the patient's body.
	Broad Genome Project Underway George Church feels that our demographic information and personal details are far less important than our genetic components. His "Personal Genome Project," which began with just 10 volunteers and is expected to grow to about 100,000 participants, will undertake to create a massive database of genetic information.
	Groundbreaking Study on Stem Cell Secrets A landmark study discovered that, as embryonic stem cells turn into different cell types, there are dramatic corresponding changes to the order in which DNA is replicated and reorganized.
	Humanity Poised to Extend Lifespan Genetic science, stem-cell research and extreme caloric restriction are all part of a burgeoning "immortality industry" that could soon point the way to a fountain of youth with the potential to stretch the human life span to 125 or 150 years, says a sociologist and consultant on future studies.
