Revolutionary Breakthrough Extends Life

Revolutionary Breakthrough Extends Life

Dear Member,

Have you heard about the biggest breakthrough in anti-aging medicine in our lifetime? It involves telomere biology. It’s exciting, cutting-edge science. And it has the entire anti-aging community buzzing. In fact, I believe it’s going to change the nature of life on this planet.

Each time your cells divide, your cells use a copy of your DNA to make the new cell. But, the telomere gets shorter in every copy. Telomeres only have so many times they can divide. You can think of it as a “countdown timer” for the life of your cells.

The shorter your telomeres, the “older” the cell acts. That makes it easier for external forces like toxins and free radicals to take their toll. You have less energy, less resistance to disease, and more aches and pains.*

Once the telomeres get to their shortest length, your cells can no longer divide, and damaged or diseased cells aren’t replaced. That causes a chain reaction that weakens your tissues and organs. And that can only lead to disease... and ultimately, death.

Here’s the irony; your body has a “genetic switch” – an enzyme called telomerase – that can stop shortening and actually re-grow your telomeres. But it is turned off.

That’s where TA-65 comes in. TA-65 comes from the Astragalus plant. And it turns on your telomerase gene. And that means that for the first time, you can actually stop – even reverse – the aging process in your body!

I’m so excited about this emerging science that I have been working to spread the word. Recently, my Wellness Research Foundation hosted Dr. Bill Andrews for a very special seminar about this amazing breakthrough.

Dr. Andrews is one of the leading telomere biology researchers in the world. He’s also one of the principal discoverers of telomerase activation with TA-65.

The seminar was limited seating. People paid $500 – in advance – to claim a seat for this one-of-a-kind, insider’s event. It was an exciting time, and it really shed light on this amazing, life-changing science.

After revealing the steps leading to this discovery, and exactly how it works, Bill and I also shared our personal experiences with TA-65. Then we answered questions from the audience.

We really left no stone unturned. In fact, we presented over two hours of exciting information to the captivated group.

I knew that most of you wouldn’t be able to make it. That’s probably a good thing considering that the room was packed. It was standing room only.

But I didn’t want anyone who wanted to learn about this earth-shattering breakthrough to miss out. So I brought in a top-notch camera crew in to film the entire thing.

We’ve put this unique seminar on DVD for you. So now you have exclusive access to this $500-a-seat anti-aging event. You’ll learn everything you want to know about the most exciting advancement of anti-aging medicine in history.

In some ways, it’s even better than being at the live event. You won’t miss a word, and you’ll be able to see everything better than if you were sitting in the front row.

If you want to learn about how you can stop and even reverse your genetic aging clock, I suggest you pick up a copy of the seminar DVD. It will begin shipping on March 6.

In the meantime, you can start to slow down the rate that your telomeres are shortening right now.

Lower your homocysteine – This culprit also shortens your telomeres 3 times faster.1
Here’s what I use with my patients (amounts are daily):

  • Vitamin B12 – 500 mcg
  • Folic acid – 800 mcg
  • Vitamin B6 – 25 mg
  • Riboflavin (B2) – 25 mg
  • TMG (Trimethylglycine) – 500 mg

You can find these at your local health food store. If you don’t want to take them all separately, you can use the same formula I give my patients.

Take vitamin C – This inexpensive supplement is a powerful antioxidant. And recent studies now show it can slow telomere shortening by over 50%.2 I recommend 2000 mg per day. You can take capsules, or add bulk powder to your favorite juice.

Take SOD – SOD (Superoxide Dismutase) is one of the most powerful antioxidants on earth. It protects your cells from the damage of toxins and stress. And now it has been shown to also slow the rate of telomere shortening.3 I recommend 500 mg a day. You can find it at your local health food store. I provide a formula containing SOD and other potent cell protection to my patients. If you like, you can check it out here.

To Your Good Health,
