Health See other Health Articles Title: Dr. Sears anti-aging prescription Omega Rejuvenol harnesses the power of nature’s NEW telomere boosters so you feel like you’ve had a 20-year rollback! jumping I’m one of the first medical doctors immersed in telomere biology, and one of the first licensed to administer the first telomere activator. Yet I wanted to see if medical research had uncovered any new nutrients or vitamins to boost telomeres and activate telomerase that were more accessible to the general public—and what I found was a real surprise. Landmark study: Telomere-boosting discovery found in omega-3s For years, I’ve known of the healing power of omega-3 fatty acids. But a landmark study by doctors at Ohio State University and U.C. San Francisco now reveals why omega-3s are so potent. brain-journal In this study, published in Brain, Behavior and Immunity, doctors wanted to see if taking omega-3 supplements could affect the rate at which telomeres shorten. For the study, 106 healthy, sedentary, middle age older adults were given a placebo…a low dose of 1.5 grams/day of the most active ingredients in omega-3s (EPA and DHA)…or a high dose of 2.5 grams/day of omega-3s for four months. Telomere length was measured at the beginning and the end of the study. The results? Astounding! The telomeres of those taking the omega-3s did not shorten but actually increased in length! Those taking the low-dose omega-3s saw telomere length increase by 21 base pairs—and those taking the high- dose omega-3s increased telomere length by 50 base pairs. Those taking the placebo? A decrease in telomere length by 43 base pairs.8 This study reveals an important point: Telomeres typically shorten as you age—but this “aging process” is NOT inevitable! This is why the first key ingredient in the new Omega Rejuvenol is a special form of omega-3 fatty acids. And as you’ll see in a moment, these omega-3s are far superior in purity, penetration and power than typical sources of omega-3s like fish oil. To order, click here… But that’s not all. The new Omega Rejuvenol also… …unleashes a secret of our ancient ancestors: “Grow younger” vitamins most people are lacking today Did you know our ancient ancestors had unlimited access to vitamins from food they ate that kept them strong, vital and young? buffalo-hunt Native cultures had unlimited access to “grow younger” vitamins Research shows that many Native cultures like Australian Aborigines, Indians of North America, Eskimos, New Zealand Maoris and African tribes had near perfect teeth…strong, fat- free bodies ...little or no disease…and almost endless youth. Their bodies were perfectly matched with nutrients found in the environment. We now know that their diets of Native foods like organ meats, butter fat, marine oils, fish, shellfish, eggs and animal tallows gave them 10 times more fat-soluble vitamins compared to what we find in our processed foods today. The fact is, most people today are lacking these vitamins and are looking and feeling older before their time. Why are these fat-soluble vitamins so vital for young again living? They help your cells to grow younger because they boost telomere health and telomerase activity. For the first time, I’ve combined these hard-to-get vitamins with the most powerful omega-3 fatty acids on earth in the new Omega Rejuvenol. The secret of Native cultures with perfect teeth, perfect health and perfect youth. native In the 1930s, Weston Price, a dentist from Ohio, left his practice to find out factors that created and sustained healthy, well-proportioned teeth. For over eight years, he visited and lived with Native cultures who followed their traditional diets and ancient traditions. At the time, most of these people in Africa, Australia, the South Seas and Indian tribes in North America were isolated from Western influence and for the most part, still lived a “primitive, non-industrialized culture.” He discovered many of these people had beautiful, straight teeth…almost no tooth decay…powerful and energetic bodies…and near freedom from disease. Why? Because they stayed true to their traditional diets, including organ meats, butter fat, marine oils, fish and eggs. Dr. Price analyzed these foods and concluded they contained four times the minerals and water-soluble vitamins and 10 times the fat-soluble vitamins found in processed American foods. Sadly, many of these foods the Native cultures ate have been demonized by the so-called health “experts”—so millions of Americans are lacking the grow younger vitamins found in these foods. But now, four of the most important, hard-to-get fat soluble vitamins missing from American diets and supplements—Vitamin D3, Vitamin K2, Vitamin A as retinol and Mixed Tocotrienols—can be yours in Omega Rejuvenol. These youth-boosting, cell-rejuvenating vitamins include… vitamin-d3 Vitamin D3: The telomerase supercharger Vitamin D is the “sunshine vitamin” because the best way to get more of it is from the sun. But according to Scientific American, three quarters of U.S. adults and teens are deficient in Vitamin D. And if you’re deficient in vitamin D, genes that are designed to keep your heart, brain, blood sugar, and blood pressure healthy CAN’T work properly. More important, we now know that Vitamin D supports healthy levels of telomerase, the enzyme that rebuilds telomeres to activate your “eternal youth” gene. A recent study showed Vitamin D supercharged telomerase activity by 19.2%.9 This is why the new Omega Rejuvenol includes the most natural and usable form of Vitamin D, Vitamin D3. vitamin-e Mixed Tocotrienols: The little-known telomere restorer Mixed Tocotrienols are members of the Vitamin E family, yet you won’t find them in any multi-vitamin or typical Vitamin E supplement. This overlooked form of Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant that helps squelch age-robbing free radicals. The most well-known form of vitamin E, alpha tocopherol, protects against telomere shortening by activating and restoring telomerase.10 In addition, one of the lesser known forms of Vitamin E, gamma tocotrienol, can “modulate the length of the telomere possibly via telomerase.” In one study, telomere lengths were 16% longer than controls when exposed to gamma tocotrienol.11 Now, in Omega Rejuvenol, you get the right dose of Mixed Tocotrienols not found in typical Vitamin E supplements to boost telomere health. vitamin-k2 Vitamin K2: The missing longevity secret I call Vitamin K2 the “missing link” to a life of longevity and robust health. Found in organ meats, egg yolks, some dairy products, fermented cheese curd and Japanese natto, Vitamin K2 activates proteins that play a vital role in the health of your heart, bones, brain, joints and more. Even better, Vitamin K2 has been shown to have positive effects on telomere length and longevity. This may explain the reason that people who took 45 mcg of K2 every day were found to live seven years longer than those who only took 12 mcg per day, according to The Rotterdam Study.12 Yet most people don’t get enough Vitamin K2, if any, from their diets or supplements. This is why each serving of Omega Rejuvenol also includes Vitamin K2. Experts agree. Telomeres and telomerase hold the key to “young again” living… pub-logos >> CELL: “Telomere loss causes aging…and telomerase can extend the lifespan of an organism.” >> LANCET: “Short telomeres cause us to die of old age.” >> EXPERIMENTAL CELL RESEARCH: “Telomerase can make old skin young again.” >> NATURE: “Telomerase reverses the aging process” >> DR. RONALD DEPINHO, HARVARD: “With telomerase activation, we saw a dramatic reversal of effects…a Ponce de Leon effect. It gives us a sense there is a Point of Return for age-associated disorders.” >> DR. DAVID SINCLAIR, HARVARD: “Activating telomerase could lead to breakthroughs in restoring organ function in the elderly and treating a variety of [age-associated health concerns].” >> NUTRITION REVIEW: “Development of an effective telomerase therapy could help extend human lifespan indefinitely by resetting the genetic clock in healthy cells to retain their telomeres.” >> SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY NEWS: “Telomere length can be used as a measure of aging…shortened telomeres are associated with age-related [conditions]…patients with longer telomeres live longer.” >> WWW.HARVARD.EDU: “Telomere loss is associated with age-associated disorders and thus restoration of telomeres could alleviate such decline.” >> THE FOUNDATION FOR ALTERNATIVE AND INTEGRATIVE MEDICINE: Telomeres are “critical for healthy cell division and function and for healthy youthful living…and a special enzyme called telomerase can restore telomeres.” To order, click here… vitamin-a Vitamin A Retinol: The telomere extender Vitamin A is a fat-soluble vitamin that helps your cells reproduce naturally …supports clear vision…keeps your immune system strong …and promotes healthy, younger looking skin. But what you may not know is that most Vitamin A people take is beta carotene, not retinol. And you need Vitamin A retinol because it’s linked to boosting telomere health and activity. In a study reported in the Journal of Nutritional Biochemistry, women who took vitamin A as part of a multi-vitamin had healthier telomeres.13 This is why the new Omega Rejuvenol also includes the preferred form of Vitamin A as retinol in each serving. Each of these hard-to-get fat soluble vitamins helps boost telomere length and healthy activity of telomerase. And now, for the first time you can get all of these “grow younger” vitamins in Omega Rejuvenol— all to give new life to your aging cells so you feel years younger and healthier. But Omega Rejuvenol does far more than re-activate your “eternal youth” gene and help you grow biologically younger. It also helps you enjoy great cholesterol and triglycerides numbers… a sharp memory…joint comfort and mobility…and even healthy eyesight. These benefits are all possible because… Experience an Omega-3 “miracle” like my patients Here’s what some of my patients say after taking Omega Rejuvenol… don-l Shoulder pain, gone! Don L. was frustrated with throbbing shoulder pain that hurt so bad, even lifting a grocery bag was torture. Now he says, “Thanks Dr. Sears, my pain is gone!” mike-tMemory, restored! Mike T. was worried because his memory was failing. Now, he says, “It’s great to remember everyone who played in the ’75 World Series. My memory has never been sharper.” marc-cBlood pressure, balanced! Marc C. feared the consequences of high blood pressure even after taking fish oil for years. Now, he reports, “I’m glad I trusted Dr. Sears, and I’m so relieved to see my blood pressure in the normal range.” paula-zTriglycerides, terrific! “My triglycerides dropped and never came back up. My cardiologist can hardly believe it.” —Paula Z. roger-cCholesterol, controlled! Roger C. was taking fish oil for years trying to improve his HDL good cholesterol and his triglycerides. But his numbers were “stuck in a rut.” Now he reports his HDL, always in the high 40s and 50s, shot up to an amazing 75! And his triglycerides dropped from a high of 150+ down to 88! He says, “Dr. Sears, this has never happened. Thank you!” To order, click here… Chapter 4 Omega Rejuvenol harnesses The “Universal Healing Nutrient” found in a unique deep sea source of omega-3s (Hint: not fish) As I mentioned earlier, Omega Rejuvenol is three generations ahead of typical fish oil or omega-3 supplements. Why? The answer starts with its unique source of DHA, the most potent and vital fatty acid found in omega-3s. I call DHA the “universal healing nutrient” because every one of your cells has built-in receptors that absorb it, and every one of your cells is craving it. And new research backs this up, reporting that DHA can give you… squid-bottle Order Now! A supercharged memory: Tufts University researchers report that those with high levels of DHA have a 47% lower risk of memory and brain concerns.14 Healthy blood sugar: Nearly 70% of people with blood sugar concerns who took DHA had a healthier response to insulin.15 Good cholesterol and triglycerides: In higher doses, DHA raises HDL (“good”) cholesterol to a protective level, while keeping blood fats low.16 Sharper vision and healthy eyes: Studies show that folks with high levels of DHA were up to 50% more likely to have healthy maculas.17 Greater joint mobility: People taking highly absorbable DHA saw pain scores drop by 28.7%...stiffness scores drop by 20.3%....and functional impairment scores drop by 22.8%.18 It’s a medical fact: Your body needs much higher levels of DHA than it does of EPA (the other fatty acid found in omega-3s). Just consider a mother’s breast milk. It has 4 TIMES more DHA compared to EPA…because DHA is the real healer and caregiver. But here’s the problem: Fish oil does NOT have enough DHA to make a real difference in your health Most people think they can get all the omega-3 DHA they need by taking fish oil. WRONG! Fish oil has two little-known flaws that make it less effective than you’d expect. >> Fish oil does NOT provide adequate amounts of DHA. Fish oil actually gives you more EPA than DHA. Eating four grams of fish or taking four grams of fish oil gives you 2.04 grams of EPA but only 1.4 grams of DHA, according to the National Institutes of Health. >> Fish oil does NOT get into your cells quickly or deeply enough. It can’t get to all the places it needs in your body to deliver healing DHA. So I began looking for a better, more concentrated source of omega-3 DHA. And I found it where nobody else was looking If you looked at my passport, you’d see I’ve traveled the world over seeking out new and better breakthroughs to help boost and protect your health. I’ve trampled through the unforgiving Australian bush, cut my way through dense Southeast Asian jungles, and trekked for miles over the hot plains of Africa. But where I found an amazing new source of DHA—one that’s far superior than any fish oil—was a real surprise: Practically at the South Pole! It was here that I found the Argentinian squid, thriving by the billions in the icy, pure waters off the tip of South America. What got my attention is this mighty mollusk is loaded with DHA. In fact, it has the same DHA to EPA ratio as mother’s breast milk: 4:1. Even better, after this special squid oil is processed, it delivers over 65% DHA—the highest concentration of DHA every achieved! This is why I’ve added this unique squid oil to my supercharged, super-rich Omega Rejuvenol. Each daily serving gives you a healthy supply of squid oil (calamarine oil), making Omega Rejuvenol like a DHA express train! Go here to order now… But just as important, I wanted to make sure this powerfully concentrated DHA could penetrate quickly and deeply into all of your cells. And this is why… Chapte Poster Comment: About Dr. Al Sears MD Dubbing himself “America’s #1 board certified anti-aging pioneer,” Dr. Al Sears MD is a health and wellness practitioner that claims to use natural, holistic remedies and other alternative treatments to help his patients live happier, healthier lives. Dr. Sears and his practice, the Center for Health and Wellness, are claimed to have helped more than 25,000 patients achieve this, not just through his in-person consultations, but also through an integrated approach that helps provide information you won’t find in mainstream medicine, regardless of your location. This includes monthly e-newsletters, daily email broadcasts, articles posted to his website, Dr. Sears’s more than 15 books and reports on health and wellness, in addition to his Primal Force line of nutritional supplements intended to address weight loss, low testosterone levels, brain health, and many other conditions. In short, Dr. Al Sears MD claims to be “exposing the flaws of mainstream medicine and pioneering new solutions through innovative approaches to exercise, nutrition and aging.” Whether you’ve spent a fortune in medical bills only to have your condition worsen, or you’re simply interested in the quickly emerging field of “naturopathic medicine,” you’ve come here to find out if Dr. Al Sears is the real deal, or if you’re just dealing with more quackery. So which is it? Consider the following: What is Naturopathic Medicine? Is it Legitimate? According to Naturopathic.org, “Naturopathic medicine is a distinct primary health care profession, emphasizing prevention, treatment, and optimal health through the use of therapeutic methods and substances that encourage individuals’ inherent self-healing process. The practice of naturopathic medicine includes modern and traditional, scientific, and empirical methods.” While this may sound straightforward and promising, there is a lot of controversy surrounding naturopathic (also known as complementary or alternative) medicine. But why? As Science-Based Medicine puts it: “Anything that can be portrayed as “natural,” be it traditional Chinese medicine, homeopathy (which is an integral component of naturopathy, something that should tell you all you need to know about naturopathy), herbalism, energy healing, Ayurvedic medicine, the four humors, or whatever. Add to that a number of bogus diagnostic modalities, such as applied kinesiology, live blood cell analysis, iridology, tests for imaginary “food allergies” and “nutrient deficiencies” that conventional medicine doesn’t recognize, plus an overwhelming emphasis on purging the body of “toxins,” unnamed and named but all unvalidated by science, and it rapidly becomes apparent that naturopathy is a veritable cornucopia of pseudoscience and quackery.” Quackwatch takes it one step further by stating, “Scientific research has identified measurable, causative factors and specific methods of preventing and/or treating hundreds of health problems. Naturopaths have done little more than create glib generalities. [These] theories are simplistic and/or clash with science-based knowledge of body physiology and pathology.” In layman’s terms, much of naturopathic medicine revolves around solving problems that are non-existent (e.g. creating both the problem and solution), as well as around incomplete science, which is what we’ll discuss next. What Does Science Say About Dr. Sears’s Programs? While there isn’t any detailed information on his website about the therapies provided by Dr. Al Sears, based on some of the customer reviews we encountered during our research (more about this in a moment), it appears that patients meet with the Doctor on a regular basis, where he formulates a plan to address their problems using a combination of diet, exercise, and supplementation. Alternately, for those patients not located near Dr. Sears’s clinic, many of his programs are available in book format, such as his PACE Program and his “Doctor’s Heart Cure” method of fighting off heart disease. However, the only hard data we have to go on relates to Dr. Sears’s supplements, so let’s take a closer look at these. Are Dr. Al Sears’s Supplements Effective for Improving Your Health? Due to the sheer number of Primal Force supplements, it would take far too long to break down each ingredient contained in each one. As a result, we thought it would be more productive to take a closer look at two of Dr. Sears’s most popular supplements: Ultra Primal Lean A supplement that’s claimed to help “melt fat right off your body” using white bean extract, fucoxanthin, irvingia gabonesis, garcinia cambogia, and chromium. However, according to the links above, there is insufficient clinical evidence available showing that these ingredients, whether in combination or alone, can help you lose weight. TeloEssence Claims to use natural ingredients to lengthen your telomeres, which may help prevent aging, boost energy, and to protect against cancer, using the following ingredients: Vitamin D3, Vitamin C, Vitamin B3, Vitamin B6, Vitamin B12, Folic Acid, Selenium, Magnesium Citrate, Trimethylglycine, Asian Ginseng, Kudzu, Milk Thistle Extract, Horny Goat Weed, Bacopa, Green Tea Extract, Cat’s Claw, Natural d-Mixed Tocotrienols, Resveratrol, pTerostilbene, Fenugreek, Citrulline, Mixed Tocotrienols, Gingko Extract, Gotu Kola, and Ashwaghanda. Amino Acid Proprietary Blend: Alpha-Ketoglutarate, Arginine, Acetyl L-Carnitine, Carnosine. It’s interesting to note that Dr. Sears claims to have invented this formulation based on years of research, including research performed by NASA (which he fails to cite) and the study that won the 2009 Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine, which involved adding “DNA end sequence of linear DNA molecules from Tetrahymena to artificial minichromosomes [which] allows their long term stable maintenance inyeast.” However, none of this study was conducted using supplements, so we’re unsure how this relates to TeloEssence in any way. With this said, based on current clinical evidence, none of the ingredients contained in TeloEssence have been shown to lengthen telomeres. What Are Customers Saying About Dr. Al Sears MD? Despite claiming to have helped more than 25,000 people in his clinic, there are a fairly limited number of online reviews for Dr. Al Sears MD, his Center for Health and Wellness, or his Primal Force supplements. And of these reviews, most referenced his Center, which appears to have a primarily positive online reputation. As such, common compliments cited effective programs, friendly staff, and that Dr. Sears is directly involved in the day-to-day operations of the clinic. On the other hand, some of the most frequent complaints related to Dr. Sears’s center were failure to experience results, high prices, and treatments that were not covered by insurance. From a product perspective, Dr. Al Sears’s PACE book (which basically consists of intervals) has an average rating of 4 stars on Amazon (as of 2/17/15). Despite this positivity, the most helpful review rated the book just 2 stars, and complained that most of it consisted of Dr. Sears telling you how great the program is, and in what little remains, about the program itself. This reviewer even specifically mentioned, “The book is very poorly organized, nearly impossible to understand, and practically a waste of time. It took me far too long to pull the bits out that actually explain the program because they aren't in any logical order and are separated by more schmaltzy infomercial talk.” Dr. Al Sears’s other most popular book, Doctor’s Heart Cure, has an average rating of 4.5 stars. While most of the reviews are clearly positive, some of the most common complaints cited that there is a lack of credibility to the Doctor’s work, and that the book contains much more selling than it does information. Dr. Al Sears MD’s Selling Tactics Considering the number of consumers who complained about Dr. Al Sears’s selling approach (e.g. selling through hype instead of substance), we thought it would be worthwhile to briefly address this concern. Here at HighYa, we’ve reviewed hundreds of nutritional supplements and wellness plans, and have found that some companies spend a lot of time scaring you into a tizzy, and very little time actually informing you about the products themselves, or backing up their claims with solid science. And based on the marketing angles used in most of Dr. Sears’s product descriptions and landing pages, it would seem he’s taken this tactic and run with it. For example, take a look at Dr. Al Sears’s most recent article. In it, he tells an awful lot of personal stories, and constantly references that he believes the “medical establishment,” Big Agriculture, and Big Pharma have all got it wrong, and are deliberately fooling you. Fortunately though, he’s got it all right. However insightful the Doctor might seem to be though, after you wade through paragraphs and paragraphs of hype-filled text, it basically just comes down to eating right and exercising regularly, which is what any other physician will tell you to do for optimum health. Dr. Al Sears MD Pricing & Refund Policy Dr. Al Sears MD sells a wide variety of products, including books, videos, audio recordings, and even heart rate monitors and skin fold test calipers, which range in price between $14.95 and $349. However, the articles on his website are free, as is signing up for his e-newsletter. All products purchased through Dr. Sears’s websites are claimed to come with a 100% money back guarantee if you’re not fully satisfied. In order to request a refund, you’ll need to contact customer service at 866-792-1035. Will Dr. Al Sears MD Help You Become Healthier & Live Longer? Chopping to the point: While Dr. Al Sears MD is a board-certified physician, this doesn’t mean that any of the therapies he provides or the supplements he sells are rooted in solid clinical science. Instead, like so many other supplements manufacturers, it seems that Dr. Sears takes 1 or 2 studies that: May not have been peer reviewed. May conflict with the wealth of other clinical studies already completed. May not ever have been repeated. May not have even been performed on humans, or in some instances, were performed only in a Petri dish. …and then extrapolates this to reach some conclusion that’s far outside the scope of the trials he’s referencing. Because of this lack of evidence, along with the very high prices http://www.highya.com/dr-al-sears-md-reviews Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread
