"For many, life has become more about what they can't do rather than what they can do. The truth, however, is that you are far greater than you 'think' and have truly amazing potential. The key is to tap into your 'higher self' and unleash your full capacity for success and happiness. This camp is highly experiential. You will not learn 'how to' be an Enlightened Warrior, you will practice 'being' one."Harv Ecker does courses in Northern Washington state, British Columbia Canada as well as Alberta Canada. I highly advise anyone and everyone to get out to his free three hour intro he does on "How to develop a Millionaire Mind". It's life changing. I will let you know the next time he does one. He's just finishing up his fall tour with dates in Alberta next week. Sorry for the late notice, but if you want to make it out to either Edmonton, Calgary or Red Deer next week, just let me know and I'll get you some free tickets.

I've wanted to do a newsletter on Vitafruit for a long time now and have finally sit downn to do it. This is going to make for a lot of reading this issue, but it will be worth it. I first want to introduce you to a couple of people that I've recently spent time with and anothe fellow who has joined the Sunrider Family, then share the Vitafruit information with you and finish with some testimonials and a recipe.
I spent some time with native medicine men, healing drummers as well as an amazing native shaman by the name of Leonard Eaglecloud. A short clip from his bio:
www.eaglecloud.com |
"A wisdom teacher, facilitator for wholeness,
singer/songwriter, actor, and storyteller, Leonard's teaching method
awakens physical and spiritual well being. His native music and chants promote
ritual honoring of Earth cycles, and creates a sustainable, sacred honoring path
for all peoples.His dedication is to bridging cultures through music. Teaching
inner and global peace through allowance rather than tolerance. Leonard brings
forward ancient truths for living human life in full harmony, as we approach
this enduring crossroads of the new millenium. His passion is singing his songs
and playing the Cedar flute. With four magnificent albums to date: Traveler, Red Road,
Sacred Moments, and Whale Spirit, he performs extensively at festivals, schools, and conferences.
Leonard is also a featured artist of Radio, TV and Film. A traveler by nature,
Leonard continues to tour, teaching indigenous ways of living. He supports the new
human era through working with children and youth. Leonard has been instrumental
in bringing the wisdom of the Medicine Wheel into public school systems.
He carries his chanupa (sacred pipe) wherever he travels and freely provides pipe
ceremony wherever requested. It is his life vision to extend to all peoples the invitation
to the peaceful journey." |
Leonard has invited me to assist him with Shaymanic Journeys that he does in native areas here in the Rocky Mountains, in Sedona Arizona and British Columbia and I am honored to do so. I highly recommend his CD's available on his website. His work is simply amazing.
but, without question, the best thing I got out of the two weeks away..... I met Denean!
I also mentioned last month about Dr Chen working on a couple of new products, one for weight management and the other an antioxidant. Well, I'm pleased to announce that I was able to beta test a bottle of the weight management product. Jim Pendree, my upline is on the Sunrider north american advisory board and was able to request a bottle for me. I have tested it over the two weeks I was away at the Warrior Camp. I ate two caps with each meal and noticed that I felt better and did lose some fat. The product works on four levels:
This is still in development and I don't have a date for when it will be available, but I'm guessing it will be unveiled either at the Leadership cruise next spring in Singapore / Thailand or at the 2003 convention in Los Angeles. It is still without a name as well.
I would like to take this opportunity to welcome a new Sunrider, Dr Dano Meadows, Ph.D, SOKE, Chairman, Steering Committee University of Marital Arts and Sciences to our Sunrider group. Grand Master Meadows has studied the martial arts for over 37 years now and currently teaches in the GTA / Ontario Canada area and owns 140 Martial Arts Studios. Dr Meadows plans to market the Sunrider foods and Philosophy of Regeneration to his Instructors and Students as a safe, convenient nutritional product for them to use while they train or in their daily lives. He has also recognized the opportunity that Sunrider presents and is formulating a business strategy to provide himself and his family with the lifestyle they want.

Vitafruit is a concentrated, great tasting, herbal nutritional 'JUICE'. It has more juice taken from the herbs than any other Sunrider herbal nutritional food. Unlike any other vitamin supplement you have ever used, the vitamins and other amino acids in VitaFruit are not extractions or chemical isolates. Instead, they are a superb concentration of berries, herbs and herb fruits. Dr.Chen's concentration only removes the volume, not the nutrition. VitaFruit helps the body keep the proper acid-alkaline balance, which is so vital for our well being. It is most beneficial for tissue repair throughout the entire body. VitaFruit is a superior source of antioxidant vitamins, such as vitamins C and E, and betacarotene, which is a precursor to vitamin A. Being in a liquid form, VitaFruit is easily digested and can get into the body very easily. VitaFruit increases the nutritional value of whatever you add it to; it can be thought of as a natural liquid food supplement that has not been isolated. It is delicious added to water, Fortune Delight, or Calli. Any NuPlus shake gains greatly with the addition of a vial of VitaFruit. |

The basis for the VitaFruit formula came from a Ming dynasty effort to help soldiers stationed in the desert. The formula was designed to aid the body in rebuilding the membrane in the mouth and the skin after exposure to very hot, dry air. The formula helps the tissues grow back and keeps the skin soft with a silky glow.
Legend has it. that Genghis Khan discovered these new fruits when he was conquering Asia. When he was in Mongolia, he fed his soldiers the combination of these rare fruits, and he noticed they had more energy, were able to march longer and cope with the heat and humidity. Dr. Chen has reintroduced these fruits to the world today as Vitafruit. He made this formula for his wife. Oi Lin, when she was recovering from her bout with cancer. She had surgery on her throat and it had disturbed her ability to speak, and her saliva glands had been affected. So, we now see Oi Lin with a glass of Fortune Delight and Vitafruit almost everywhere she goes.
Dr. Chen's personal observation of the effects of taking between one and three vials a day, was that he gained needed weight and experienced an increase in energy. He found that his body was strengthened and retained more protein. With that observation, he increased his intake to six to eight vials a day and found he had more energy and needed less sleep. Dr. Chen noted that now he is finally able to keep up with his wife, Dr. Oi Lin Chen. He also noticed that his hair darkened.
We are being encouraged to eat at least 5 to 7 fruits a day. VitaFruit is a great way to meet that nutritional requirement in our diet. Perhaps Dr. Chen has found the "Fountain of Youth" with this food.
The honey in VitaFruit is necessary to preserve and stabilize the thousands of various micronutrients in their delicate whole food form. Also, some of the herbal fruits in the formula are very tart. Even with the honey, it’s still tangy. Dr. Chen's suggestion for diabetics and hypoglycemics is to dilute it and sip it throughout the day. Vitality Analysis testing has shown it is still beneficial for those with low to medium candida
Doctors have found that vitamin deficiencies do not come singly, but are linked to other vitamin and mineral deficiencies. Heavy doses of one or a few vitamins will not necessarily correct a deficiency. For instance, a Vitamin B12 deficiency might actually be a shortage of folic acid necessary to assimilate B12. Each vitamin has a specific job, and much as they are interdependent in carrying out various functions, they can not replace each other when there is a deficiency. By taking the vitamins together in their natural synergy in VitaFruit, your body can absorb a whole array of nutrients in their natural state.
VitaFruit supports the natural collagen of the skin. If you have skin problems such as rashes or spider angioma that are collagen failures, Dr. Smith suggests mixing your VitaFruit in a cool cup of Assimilaid tea. This is a good skin fortifier and supports the body in putting the proper fat and collagen around the organs and in the skin. Taking VitaFruit with Beauty Pearl is another way to feed the collagen building nutrients. Collagen is the element in your skin that keeps you from getting wrinkles.
VitaFruit is one of the best antioxidants available in the world. It protects your body from the ravages of free radicals. Free radicals are unstable oxygen molecules that steal molecules from cells in the body in order to stabilize. They cause a domino effect of damage wherever they go.
When the body has plenty of antioxidant foods like VitaFruit, and many more of our Sunrider foods, it helps the body fight off, or ward off, the negative effects of pollutants and chemicals we are all bombarded with every day of our lives.
The concepts of free radicals and antioxidants have become so popular that some companies have focused all their promotion on this single area, making outrageous claims that a particular isolated antioxidants can cure everything.
Like many Sunrider foods, VitaFruit excels in its antioxidant qualities. It contains THOUSANDS of different antioxidants! Because of this, herbal nutritional foods, do this job far better than all the isolated vitamins on the market. God didn't just put one herb or food on the planet. The planet is covered with huge varieties of vegetation. The secret is to eat a variety, and eat foods that supply known and unknown nutrients.
Once,
when asked what the secret of VitaFruit was, Dr. Chen answered that he
felt there were naturally occurring nutrients in the VitaFruit that
mankind had not discovered yet. Later, one of the chemist in the Sunrider
lab was asked about the bioflavanoids in the Vitamin C family in
Vitafruit. He said, "You only want to know about the bioflavanoids? With
our special new equipment, we can see 200 to 300 flavanoids in the Vitamin
C family, bioflavanoids being only one type. Mankind has not identified or
given names yet to these flavonoids." When asked about Beta Carotene, the
chemist confirmed that they could now see 2,000 to 3,000 carotenoids in
the Vitafruit. Beta Carotene being only one type in the Vitamin A family. | |
I personally add a good squirt to my bottle of Fortune Delight and I drizzle a little bit over my morning cereal as well. A beautiful way to start the day. When we were at the President Club galla reception put on by Dr Chen at the Convention in August, there were two large 6 gallon jugs filled with Vitafruit. I'm told that Dr Chen also has bartenders in his home that serve up Vitafruit's when he entertains. When I drink it, I just "feel good".
DON'T add VitaFruit to anything hot. Heat will destroy the Vitamin C. Amazingly, the Vitamin C in VitaFruit has been stabilized, so it will not dissipate for 72 hours after being mixed up. When we cut an orange open, the Vitamin C dissipates in about 20 minutes. Most orange juice products have to be fortified with synthetic ascorbic acid because the Vitamin C has been lost in processing.

I can tell my story of the last 3 years - so here goes. Three years ago I was certainly not as well as I am today. What has made the difference? In one word – ‘SUNRIDER’. In two words – ‘IT WORKS’. |
