Trainer(s):  5 Star Golden Circles Drs. Glenn and Ina Nozek

Isagenix is all about cleansing your body of the harmful impurities we encounter on a daily basis. Tune in to learn from 5-Star Golden Circles Drs. Glenn and Ina Nozek as they share insights on the power of Isagenix Antioxidants and the Essentials for Men™ and Women™, and how they can assist your body in fighting free radical damage, slow the signs of aging and more.

>> We have the absolute pleasure of having Doctors Glenn and Ina Nozek with us tonight, educating you on these three amazing products, the essentials for men, Essentials for Women, and the antioxidant formula. Three powerful daily supplements that are a part of our Isagenix Product line. And so without further ado, I’d love to introduce Doctor Glenn and Doctor Ina to both of you. They are both retired doctors of chiropractic. And Doctor Ina is also a certified clinical nutritionist. But they are amazing, amazing people and individuals when it comes to helping people reach a heightened level of health and wellness. They’ve been nutritional consultants, they’ve written several pieces for publications.

Doctor Glenn is a fellow of the International Academy of Clinical Acupuncture, and Doctor Ina, she actually still maintains a private clinical nutrition practice, and teaches courses on various nutritional issues. So they’ve been a part of Isagenix for quite some time now. I know that they are a mommy and daddy to some beautiful, beautiful children. And Doctor Glenn and Doctor Ina you’re gonna have to give us an update on the children, cause I don’t know how old they are now. But they are a wonderful addition to our Isagenix family. So with that, good evening to the both of you. Doctor Glenn, Doctor Ina, welcome.

>> Thanks Kjersti.

>> Hi Kjersti, hi everybody. Thank you so much, and it’s always great to be on the training calls with you. We’d like to start by just letting everyone know how impressed we are, and how impressed we’ve been with the Isagenix products. And for the past five years we’ve been so excited to really be able to share them with others. After over twenty years of clinical practice, we can honestly say that we have never seen or used any nutritional products that are as phenomenal as the Isagenix Product line. John Anderson, our founder and master formulator really cracked the code when it comes to creating products that produce results. Because at the end of the day, that’s what really matters, improving the health of others, and knowing that they are quickly and dramatically noticing the difference. And real quick, I want everybody to understand how skeptical we were when we heard about the Isagenix products just five years ago.

As health practitioners it’s very easy to get somewhat cynical, because there’s so many products out there, and for us not only were we exposed to so many nutritional products through our practice, but in addition my family owned two health food stores. So we have been literally bombarded by hundreds and hundreds of products through the years. So when we heard about Isagenix, we definitely did our due diligence, and we were very intrigued, because we were hearing of such incredible results, even though we were quite skeptical. So after tons of research, we decided that we would give Isagenix a try. And we ended up doing a test pilot group, that was specifically with the nine day cleanse.

At the time there were no pre-cleanse days, again that was five years ago. The results that we experienced during that program were phenomenal, really unlike anything that we had ever seen before. And at that time we had already been practicing for sixteen years. So to say how impressed we, it’s so hard to express that. We were so impressed that we decided to try the other products as well, and fortunately we ended up on the total health and wellness program, which at the time was called maintenance for life. Now at the time, I actually had my own private label, I had my own multivitamin, I had my own antioxidant. And we were so impressed by the results that we saw, and started to use again, the products that we’re gonna talk about. And I actually stopped private labeling at the time, because I felt really dishonest, how can I recommend my line when I feel that these are you know, just blowing everything else away.

So we were fortunate enough to have experienced at that time the products that we’re going to cover with everyone this evening. So tonight, as Kjersti said, we’re going to be highlighting three products, the essentials for men, the essentials for women, and the Isagenix Antioxidants. And what we’d like to do for tonight’s call is go through some of the specific ingredients in each of the formulations, and also give you some bullet points that you can use to really promote these products when you’re sharing them with others. So we’ll highlight the benefits for you of each of these three products, so you’ll really feel comfortable when speaking about them to others. So let’s go ahead and jump right in.

>> Hey everybody, thanks for having us on the call. Doctor Glenn here. And I thought I’d kick it off by talking about the essentials for men. Again, as far as a multivitamin for men goes, this is amazing. It is just a phenomenal array of unique and powerful nutrients for the active man. So guys, if you want you know, greater energy, endurance, stamina, if you want balanced glandular and sexual health, if you want to get your nails strong, your skin and hair beautiful, just having greater overall health, then the essentials for men are really for you. And there’s an optimal dosage of all the classic vitamins, but tonight what I really want to highlight are some of the ingredients in the supplement that John put in here that really sets this apart from any other men’s multivitamin that I’ve ever seen.

And these components are mostly in the, the part of if you’re looking at the ingredient list, of what’s called the proprietary blend. And again, these are the things that make Isagenix special. Everything was given very careful thought, not only into what was chosen, but the amounts, the order, exactly how they were blended together. It’s really exciting. So let’s start off with the first ingredient that I want to talk about, it’s the first one listed there actually. It’s called horsetail. And no, this doesn’t come from retired race horses, I had to talk to my son about that. I was like no, it’s just an herb. And actually horsetails and herb you know, has traditionally been used in Europe as a diuretic for the treatment of adema, which is a swelling or fluid retention. However, horsetail really has a huge list of other noted attributes, including uses as an antibacterial, an antioxidant, it’s an aid for bladder disturbances, digestive upsets, fever, gout, hair loss, kidney disease, liver protection, prostate inflammation, gosh thyroid disorders, urinary incontinence, and even wound healing. So it is no wonder that this was chosen as the you know, foremost ingredient you know, in this product. Because it really, it has so many incredible benefits. The next thing I want to mention is soft palmetto. Again, a lot of guys are familiar with this now, unfortunately. It’s an herb rich in fatty acids and phytosterols. Again I say unfortunately, because it’s known for its role in maintaining prostate health, and of course we’ve seen you know, those of us on the planet that don’t consume the Isagenix products are sometimes battling these kinds of issues. So again, soft palmettos in this product, and it’s an awesome, and awesome product, an awesome supplement to put in there.

We also have bamboo stem, which is a low calorie source of potassium, but it’s another one of John’s iurvadic ingredient selections, which is really known to be a general tonic for your respiratory system. There’s also oshwaganda, which is an adaptogen of course, which helps your body to maintain homeostasis, and really helps you to deal with stress. It prevents or minimizes imbalances that can lead to diseases, you know, whether it’s from poor diet, lack of sleep, excess mental or physical strain, as well as chemical toxins in the environment. And research is also showing that it’s especially beneficial in stress related conditions, such as arthritis, high blood pressure, heightened blood sugar, etcetera. Vitamin P is another one. And you know what? We don’t hear a lot about vitamin P, a lot of people don’t know. The fact is this is one nutrient that really does a lot for your body, and can really help you to be healthy and active. But vitamin P is also known as bioflavenoid , and it plays a big role in making sure that your body properly absorbs vitamin C. So it’s great for anybody who for instance is prone to bleeding gums, because this vitamin really helps prevent and heal weak blood vessels, especially those located in the gums and in the mouth. For minor conditions like the common cold, vitamin P is awesome, it boosts your immune system, it’s essential for strengthening your bodies natural defenses against viruses and infections, so again, another just unique and awesome ingredient that’s added to this program.

Skizandra has a long history of medicinal use in China and other Asian countries. In fact in China, Skizandra is one of the components of the herbal medicine which was used to treat coronary heart disease. But Skizandra is more commonly known and used as a general tonic, because it has the benefits of being antibacterial, as I just mentioned it is a cardiac tonic, it’s an antioxidant, and an antidepressant as well. There’s also pumpkin seed extract. And pumpkin seed is loaded with essential fatty acids. So it really helps maintain healthy blood vessels, nerves, and tissues. There’s also fenugreek , and fenugreek is used to treat a whole slew of ailments. In ancient Egypt, in Greece and Rome, everything from bronchial problems to low libido, Indian iurvadic and traditional Chinese medicine recommend fenugreek to treat arthritis and bronchitis, improve digestion, and even maintain a healthy metabolism. Recent studies also show that fenugreek helps lower blood sugar levels, so that’s awesome.

There’s also red clover, and red clover’s nutritional components have been noted to stimulate your immune system overall, it’s also been used to treat coughs and respiratory system congestion. Again, an excellent overall herb. And then there’s royal jelly. Now most of us have heard of royal jelly, of which of course is a substant. It’s produced of course by bees, specifically the nurse bees, because they feed it exclusively to all the larvae in their first few days of life. But royal jelly gets its name because it’s the only food fed to the queen bee, which not only grows to be over double the size of all the worker bees, but also allows her to live and lay eggs for five to six years, compared to the classic worker bee’s thirty five to forty days of life. So for men out there, be glad you’re not, be glad you’re not a bee, you know? So why do we put royal jelly in the men’s essential. Well it turns out that this rich concentrated food is not just useful for bees. It contains all kinds of remarkable amounts of proteins, lipids, vitamins, hormones, enzymes, mineral substances, and specific vital factors that actually act as biocatalysts in cell regeneration. Another, it’s just another awesome addition to the men’s essential. And of course, as in almost the products in Isagenix, there’s isolate, which is that proprietary blend created by John that contains seventy organic ionic trace minerals. And these micronutrients from ancient botanical beds are literally millions of years old. They’re highly absorbable, and they really maximize the benefits to your body. You know, it’s just an amazing thing that drives the nutrients to the cell.

And lastly, there’s a vegetable blend. It’s just, it has just a slew of vegetables that really rounds out and enhances this phenomenal formula. So that’s kind of a quick skim of the some of the more important components of the essentials for men. But I can tell you, in my educated opinion, this is literally the finest men’s multivitamin supplement available on the market today, just absolutely fantastic.

>> So I would like to talk about the women’s essentials. I don’t know if Glenn mentioned, but obviously these are gender specific multivitamin formulas. And it’s so obvious, but I just want to really emphasize that men and women are different, we have different nutritional needs. So therefore it’s critical that a multivitamin be gender specific so that each gender get exactly what we need for our unique requirements. Now I want to clarify something else before we continue. The individual vitamins and minerals that are found in our supplements are considered the bioactive form. That means they could be used, absorbed, and assimilated by the body.

Many, many supplements out there on the market, even the ones that are expensive and touted to be you know, the best, and you know, health professional lines and so forth, a lot of them are just not bio-available. So we have the highest quality raw materials, that are coupled with a delivery system that is second to none. And this allows these high quality nutrients to be delivered to the cell. This is what makes the true difference, this is why people can see and feel the difference in their body, and in their overall well being when they put these products in their body. By the way, in clinical practice I have used many different professional lines of products prior to Isagenix, and many people, and some of you on the call could maybe relate to this, many people would have problems either swallowing pills, or they would find that the vitamins would repeat on them or make them feel queasy. And clinically I’ve had more people tolerate these supplements by a long shot. And the best part is that people actually see and feel the difference.

So I want to talk now specifically about some of the you know, specifics on the women’s essential. Now there are a lot of similarities between the women’s and the men’s, so we do have the vegetable blend, it’s different proportion. We actually have more vegetable blend in the women’s essential than in the men’s. We do have the royal jelly, we have the horsetail, and Glenn went into you know, all the benefits of this. Horsetail’s great for supporting bone strength, which men and women both need to consider. We have the oshwaganda and the bamboo stem and the Skizandra, and the fenugreek and the vitamin P, and the red clover. So we have all that in our women’s essential as well.

In addition, we have fennel seed which further supports digestive health, we have a slew of herbs, botanicals that really support female hormones, and strengthen reproductive organs, and you know, really gives us the hormonal support that we need. So we have damiana, red raspberry leaf, we have lady’s manta leaf, we have wild yam, and we have danquai . And these are all specific herbs that I used prior to Isagenix clinically in my practice when women would have different imbalances with their hormones. So it’s so awesome to have an essentials for women formula that has these already in there. It’s very, very exciting as a clinician.

We also have violet leaf extract, and this is a tiny plant which is valued greatly for its blood cleansing properties. So here we have more things that are going to cleanse our system, which is awesome because we all know how much we need that, and it goes hand in hand with our cleansing system.

We also have in here uva ursi , which is an herb that supports a healthy urinary tract. And how many women experience you know, chronic urinary tract issues. And so this is just a great way to keep your urinary tract healthy, very, very important.

We also have pineapple, so John Anderson put pineapple in there. And pineapple is a great source of certain nutrients like manganese, and it has significant amounts of vitamin C, and certain B vitamins. But it also contains a proteolytic enzyme called bromelain, which actually helps to break down protein. So here’s another way to assimilate other nutrients. It’s just, it’s so exciting to see all this in one formulation. And it even has vanadium. And vanadium is really helpful to stabilize and support normal blood sugar. So we got it all in here. This supplement is loaded with adaptogens, with antioxidants, with vitamins, with minerals, and great nutrients to balance and support healthy hormones for healthy skin, hair, nails, for bone strength, for energy, endurance, immune support. It’s all in here, and it’s truly an awesome formula. So I’m gonna hand it over to Doctor Glenn, and he’s going to talk about the antioxidant formula.

>> All right. So let’s talk about, you know, there’s a lot of hype out there about antioxidants. You know, what they, why do we even need them are. Well, antioxidants neutralize harmful free radicals which have been linked to cancer and other negative age related conditions. And by doing so, may help you live a longer, healthier life. Well the Isagenix antioxidants include important vitamins, including you know, vitamin C and [inaudible] and E, characinoids, alpha lipoic acid, green tea extract, and so on. This is literally, it’s an amazing formula. I truly believe this is the best antioxidant supplement available. And you know, you hear us get excited about these, you have to know that we’ve researched and looked at lots and lots of supplements. And one of the things that’s unique, you know, you see a lot of everything, whether it be you know, super juices out there, and other you know, antioxidant supplements, well the Isagenix antioxidant supplement is really unique because it takes a broad spectrum approach, rather than a single component approach. And that’ll provide you with one of the strongest defenses against aging, free radical damage, it can reduce the risk of you know, even certain forms of cancer. But the big deal is you know, you see things like orac scores, which are even on some of our products we list the orac scores. But what’s really unique, and this was a conversation I had with John Anderson, is that the orac really defines a single antioxidant. And while that’s important, and high amounts of them are very useful and absolutely essential, the broad spectrum really gives you the greatest benefit overall, because every single individual component is unique. So let’s talk about some of those components that are in our antioxidant formula. Well there’s ellagic acid. And ellagic acid is a very well researched, strong antioxidant. Ours comes from pomegranate juice, and obviously you’ve seen the rage on pomegranate over the last few years. Well that has a lot to do with the healthy effects of ellagic acid. Because ellagic acid is like a scavenger, it hunts down those cancer causing chemicals, and it’s very effective at rendering them harmless in the body. So it’s really an awesome, awesome antioxidant.

The next item I want to talk about is called brahmi, also known as bacopa. And that’s again, I love these, these are, this is an ayurvedic herb that’s been used for thousands of years in India as a brain tonic. And much of the data available suggests that it really helps in the area of memory, development, learning, and concentration. Gosh, we could all use that you know, with all the things that we’re exposed to, this was an ideal choice to include in this program, you know, in this formula. We have ester C, which is a patented form of vitamin C. It differs from other vitamin C because it’s much easier on your stomach than the other forms. It’s also suggested that you know, you’ll enjoy vitamin C over a longer period of time in the form of ester C. And it’s more bio available than other forms of ester C.

Again, every time you know, Isagenix makes a supplement, or includes something in their supplement, it’s designed to make it unique and better than what’s, what else exists on the shelves right now. There’s also bilberry, and again, that’s become very popular. Bilberry contains potent anthrocyanin, which have been noted to protect your body tissues, particularly blood vessels. And it keeps them from oxidizing any materials that are circulating in the blood. And in fact, bilberries contain the highest antioxidant level bite for bite of any berry out there. So that’s kind of a neat little fact. And in the same way that you know, that pipes can rust as a result of an attack by you know, environmental chemicals, well various chemicals in their environment, you know, such as pollutants, smoke, and even the chemicals in the food combine to anoxidize our blood vessels. And this is where nutrients like bilberry really shine.

We also have watermelon extract. And a lot of people don’t realize that watermelon plants have their own defense system. They produce a substance that is very effective at protecting the cells against drought, heat, and ultraviolet rays. So watermelon extract is awesome. It protects your skin against daily stress that we get from ultraviolet lights and free radicals, and it reduces the breakdown of DNA in our skin cells. There’s also andecistal cystine. And that’s important because it rapidly metabolizes to glutathione. And glutathione acts as a really powerful antioxidant in your body. What glutathione does is it detoxifies chemicals into less harmful compounds, and it’s also known to help transport the nutrients to the lipocytes and phagocytes, which are immune cells. And again, it also protects the entire cell membrane.

And there’s also lutein. Luteins found in dark green leafy vegetables, such as spinach, as well as various fruits, and even corn. And it provides a central nutritional support to your eyes and skin. And again, you know, what’s interesting about the eyes and skin, they happen to be the only organs that are directly exposed to the outside environment, you know, so often. So again, there was a lot of thought put into why these particular nutrients were picked. Let’s talk about alpha lipoic acid. What makes alpha lipoic acid unique is that its antioxidant abilities function in both water and fat, unlike most of the common antioxidants like vitamin C and E. So, alpha lipoic’s antioxidant properties are really effective on brain and nerve tissue.

And there’s also milk thistle. Milk thistle of course extract helps protect the liver from a variety of common toxins, including alcohol, pesticides, heavy metals, pollution, and even medications of all kinds. And it’s been used for well over two thousand years for medicinal purposes, and its use as a detoxifying agent and liver protocol treatment has been well validated by research. And then the last thing I want to cover in the antioxidant is the grape seed extract. And grape seed again, is one of the most powerful antioxidants to fight free radicals. It’s twenty times more potent than vitamin C, it’s fifty times stronger than vitamin E. It improves cardiovascular health, it promotes brain, skin, and eye health, it’s an antibacterial, it’s an antiviral, and even an anti-inflammatory. And it’s one of the few antioxidants that can penetrate the blood brain barrier and really help protect your brain and nerve tissue. And again, it really helps improve mental alertness, and can help prevent senility. And we could all use that. So I’m gonna hand it back over to Doctor Ina.

>> All right. So now many people wonder if we’re getting too many vitamins, too many nutrients, if we take the shake every day, and the ionic supreme and the essentials and the antioxidant, and so on and so forth. Well you can be rest assured that you’re not getting any megadoses of anything. In a general sense, there aren’t too many of any particular nutrients that we need to be careful about. Of course, if your doctor specifically tells you to avoid a certain vitamin, perhaps because it interferes with a particular medication that you’re on, then of course you would possibly need to avoid one or more of the Isagenix products. But in a general sense, no, you can take all the products, we take all the products.

Now as far as dosages go, it’s recommended that for the essentials for men you take four capsules per day. My suggestion is to split that into two dosages, or two capsules twice per day. So you could take two with your shake and then maybe the other two with your lunch or your dinner. And for compliance purposes, if it’s easier to just take them all at once, then it’s better to get them in than to just forget. A lot of people forget if they have to take supplements a second or third time during the day. But ideally you want to split them up if you can.

For the essentials for women it’s recommended to take five per day. So I usually suggest that women take three with your breakfast shake, and then two later in the day with either lunch or dinner. And then the antioxidants are taken three per day. And again, if you split them up, that’s going to be best. So I typically recommend two with breakfast, and then one with lunch or dinner.

Now I also, we also recommend when you’re feeling a bit run down, or if you feel like you’re getting a cold or a sore throat, you can definitely take a few extra antioxidants. That will help to support the immune system, and that works like a charm. So I highly recommend having extra antioxidants around. We also recommend using these products along with as many of the Isagenix products as you can. You will absolutely continue to improve your health. You’re gonna feel healthier, stronger, more vibrant. The more Isagenix products that you use on a regular basis, that you put in your body, the better you will truly be. We can absolutely attest to that, both from our own personal use, from our clinical practice, and from literally working with hundreds and hundreds of people over the last five years.

These products are incomparable, and the three that we highlighted tonight are equally as awesome as the entire line of products that we have available to us. Any sound nutritional supplementation program is incomplete without a good multivitamin, an antioxidant formula, and one thing that we didn’t speak specifically about, which is a good essential fatty acid formula. And the IsaOmega Supreme is the best available. So we definitely you know, recommend adding that to your program as well. Yes, we’re certainly getting tons of nutritional benefit from our IsaLean products and our Ionics supreme, and of course our new and delicious cleanse for life, and all of our other awesome products. But our gender specific multivitamins and our antioxidant formula are phenomenal additions.

Now I’ve personally been taking the essentials for women and the antioxidant for five years now, and I’m even more excited to continue to take them, just brushing up on some of these facts. If you have not tried these yet, we highly recommend them. It’s always great to be a product of the product. If you are taking them but not recommending them to others, it’s such a great idea to share these products with others, so we can truly offer the best nutritional supplements on the market to everybody that we love, and that we care for. So I want to say thank you to everybody, and Kjersti we’re gonna turn it back over to you.

>> Wow, whoa. I mean tons of information. And you know you guys did such a good job on breaking down those proprietary blends on the essentials for men and women, and really giving people kind of a real good you know, overview of what does formula stand for. I mean being gender specific, now you know; I’ve just got to tell you ladies, if you accidentally take the men’s, you may grow chest hair. So we do not recommend, no I’m kidding.

[ laughter ] I’m just kidding. So stick to the pink lid ladies. No. But really, I mean what powerful, powerful supplements. And another thing too that I get asked a lot is you know, I mean because five capsules for women and four capsules for men, you’ve got to be kidding, that’s a lot. And it seems like a lot, but you know, listen, if you were gonna be taking a multiple vitamin, you know, a lot of them, a lot of companies capsulate, I’m sorry, we capsulate, a lot of companies tablicize their you know, their powder. Which means that their powder gets fed through this line, and gets punched out at like you know, so many pounds per square inch to like form an actual tablet, and then you swallow that. And with these being all veggie caps, I mean they instantaneously disintegrate in the stomach, and of course actually are healthy for the body.

I had someone come up to me at an event one time, Doctor Glenn and I, and he said I can’t get my guy to take the essentials for men, or any of our capsulated stuff. And I said well why not? And he said because he doesn’t want to ingest the plastic. And I said oh, oh wait a second, no those are made out of vegetables. And he’s like oh they are? Oh my gosh, you know, I can’t wait to go back and tell him you know, it’s just, you know, so. But the antioxidant is very powerful. I think my favorite thing, I mean it’s hard to really pick out of that antioxidant blend, but I love the alogic acid for women, I mean especially because of the studies that, and the research that’s been done on that, and helping to reduce the chances of you know, getting breast cancer. And it’s just a very powerful ingredient. And you know, not that you have to go out and study and read all these studies, and look and research into all these products. Because that’s, we’re not into the formulation and you know, ingredients you know, lists you know, that’s not how we’re gonna build our business. But to really have an understanding and an in-depth look at what the products deliver for you as an individual, and then share maybe a few key things to your new associate that’s gonna be embarking on you know, the total health and wellness, and taking the essentials for men or women I think is pretty powerful. Don’t you guys think, Doctor Glenn and Doctor Ina?

>> Oh gosh, absolutely. You know, and you mentioned something before, and I just wanted to touch on it you know, about different forms of nutrients and how they’re produced. Ina and I you know have been fortunate. We’ve actually toured a you know, a number of facilities. And one of the things we saw, and you mentioned you know, how they do it per square inch. The other thing they do, they heat it.

>> Yeah.

>> So what’s interesting is labels, and I always tell this, even to practitioners that I speak with. Labels are deceiving. I mean they don’t tell the whole story. Because labels are based on what goes into the product, not necessarily what comes out of it after it’s produced. And because so many supplements on the market are produced with high heat, by the time you take them, I hate to say it, but it’s really true. They’re almost worthless by the time you take them. And it’s mostly because of how they were produced. That’s something you know, your dad John Anderson takes really serious. You know. And there are other companies that take it serious too, but one of the nicest things is that we use cold processing in Isagenix for virtually every single thing that we make. You know, so we’re always yielding the highest nutrient value of anything we use.

All the components by the way, for everybody listening, are always checked with each single batch. They’re triple checked. Every batch that comes into Isagenix are triple checked. And believe me, they’ve rejected them. It’s happened before, and it does happen out there where batches are just not as good, and so they’re sent back to the you know, to the source to get us a new one. So you can rest assured, you know, the nice thing is, especially in network marketing, where you really get people telling their story. It’s not just a bunch of paperwork or a bunch of data about how good these are. We hear it every day now, and for five years people have been telling us I feel these vitamins, I can tell the difference when I take these. And as Doctor Ina mentioned, it was the same for us.

>> Yeah.

>> So that’s why we’re so excited.

>> I know, I know. I love it. And the fact that you know, I know some supplements out there, you know, they’ll take their multiple vitamin and you know, it’s just riddled with caffeine. So when people take you know, maybe another company’s product, they’re getting that instantaneous jolt of caffeine, which we all know is very detrimental to the natural cleansing processes of the liver and so forth. And so just to know that you know, I mean they are just beautiful formulations. It’s pretty exciting. Now let me ask you. You guys have been in practice for so many years. Now are you guys five star golden circle yet?

>> We are, we’re five star golden circle.

>> Yay. [inaudible] in the top one hundred somewhere in there. So, and I love what you said at the very beginning, you know that you guys were hardcore skeptics, you know, a little bit of you know, cynicism in there of really you know, it’s like okay, I think I’ve seen it all, you know, you’ve got to be kidding. And to really take a look, I just think that that really speaks loudly to everybody on the line that that doesn’t come from your profession and what you guys do, and you know, helping people as doctors get healthy and analyzing, reviewing products and formulations. I bet you guys have seen some doozy products that you know, make claims on getting people healthy but don’t do anything.

>> Oh all the time Kjersti, I mean they’re out there. You know, we see them every day, I’m sure you do as well. And it’s so, it’s just really so deceptive that people you know, fall into that trap, and they’ll spend money, and you know, they’re almost convinced initially, and then after a while they wake up and say you know what? I’m spending all this money, I don’t feel any different. And it’s just really sad that that’s so prevalent out there.

>> I know. I remember, I remember Jimmy Smith saying one time, he said it’s, you have no idea what it’s like to be an associate of a company whose products don’t work.

[ laughter ] He said it’s awful, it’s awful, when you have to try to convince people to stay on the product, and they’re not getting any results. And you know, bless his heart, he was pretty funny. But Glenn, were you gonna say something?

>> Yeah, I was just gonna say you know, for me as a practitioner, all you have to do now over these last five years, Brian and myself, is look at what’s gone on in Isagenix and the other health professionals from both the traditional medical field as well as alternative medical field that have you know, come like a magnet, and are just being sucked right into Isagenix, everybody from you know, Bill Wheeler whose you know, resume you know, reads like a who’s who of famous people, and certainly you know, Paul Anderson who you know, the inventor of our ice delight chocolates, who really has an amazing nutritional background. And I love it for a medical doctor, you know, basically ran his entire practice nutritionally. So I mean we are bringing in, and we are attracting the most respected you know, experts in the field. And that to me you know, speaks volumes.

>> Absolutely. I love that too. I think that we’ve attracted the best of the best, and just having a team, and being able to have people such as Doctor Bill Wheeler, Tony O’Donnell, Andrew Keach, you know, the creator of [inaudible], and then of course Doctor Paul Anderson, creator of ice delights. Just to adopt those amazing products from those individuals who have you know, developed the technology, and the technology behind the [inaudible] and the green and the fruits. And those are master formulations that we really viewed as being a beautiful addition to our product line. So we’re very proud to have them, and, but it is always a pleasure having you on.
