Bee Energetic Final word from Dave: `Fight or flight` is the most basic human and animal instinct; it is triggered by primordial reflexes, which today cause adrenal burnout in most people in a westernized culture where clocks, schedules, artificial light and stimulation are the rule as opposed to the exception. Our addiction to coffee, so-called "energy drinks" and other stimulants is a result of this lost adrenal support which is our reserve energy, our back up system, our "second wind" - nothing restores integrity to your adrenal system like this unique herbal combination, taught to me by the late great Bernard Jensen. - Dave Sandoval

Doctor and Researcher Bruce Ames, and others observed reversal in memory loss, increased vigor, and increased energy in the animals that were taking Acetyl Lcarnitine with Alpha Lipoic Acid. Their conclusion, if you tune up the mitochondria you may have a means of delaying at least the onset of a number of age-related problems that we encounter, and we can in some ways, hopefully, reverse what has already taken place. People use acetyl-L-carnitine to maintain their immune competence and reduce the formation of the aging pigment lipofuscin. The most important effect of acetyl L-carnitine, however, is to maintain the function of the cell`s energy powerhouse, the mitochondria. Published research continues to substantiate the multi-faceted benefits of this critical amino acid supplement. It has the ability to squeeze through even the narrowest of blood vessels to increase the supply of oxygen to the heart, brain, and all other body parts.

We`ve captured the health-promoting benefits of tart cherries in the most nutritionally potent fruit juice available- each delicious serving contains over 7000 ORAC units. Tart cherries were once only used to make pies and, due to their tart taste, the bakers replaced some of the juice with sugar.
