It also works to increase lean muscle. By pairing it with the green tea extract, phospholipid complex and chromium, you have a powerful partner in your weight loss efforts.” According to Glory Kneass, Senior Vice President at Healthy Directions, “We are very excited to offer a weight loss product that has proven research and clinical studies to support it. In fact, a recent multi-center clinical trial found that people who took just the green tea extract and phospholipid complex, while also following a calorie-restricted diet, lost up to 30 pounds in three months. That is exciting news for anyone looking to enhance their weight loss goals.” Lasting weight loss requires a change of the habits that led to the weight gain—and there’s nothing easy about changing long-time habits. Fortunately, TonaLean-3 is a powerful ally to enhance any weight loss or diet plan.

rausten@healthydirections.com (Potomac, MD) — Stephen Sinatra, MD, is one of eight medical doctors featured in Suzanne Somers’ new book Knockout: Interviews with Doctors Who are Curing Cancer and How to Prevent Getting It In the First Place. The book highlights Ms. Somers’ personal experience with cancer while also detailing how conventional medicine has dropped the ball in the treatment and prevention of cancer. She then offers alternative cancer treatments and preventative therapies via interviews with more than 10 doctors and health experts in the world of alternative medicine. Ms. Somers chose to interview Dr. Sinatra for her book because of his “heart of gold coupled with an extraordinary intellect.” She believes that he “has the capacity to forever change the way doctors interact with patients, for the better.” In his chapter, Dr. Sinatra [link to www.drsinatra.com] focuses primarily on his philosophy regarding thoughts and emotions and how they can either lead to cancer or lead you to health. He believes that “the most important thing [a doctor] can instill into the patient is the belief that he or she can get well. Once a doctor instills that confidence, the patient takes part in it.” It is this philosophy and Dr. Sinatra’s insights on how finding the lesson in your illness can help you heal that infuse his approach to dealing with cancer. As a world-renowned cardiologist and founder of the New England Heart & Longevity Center, he uses the best of traditional medicine and alternative therapies to help his patients find true healing. Dr. Sinatra is also Board Certified in Internal Medicine and Cardiology and is a Fellow of the American College of Cardiology (F.A.C.C.) and a Fellow of the American College of Nutrition (F.A.C.N.).

tcallahan@healthydirections.com (Potomac, MD) — Julian Whitaker, MD, has the distinct honor of providing the foreword to Suzanne Somers’ new book Knockout: Interviews with Doctors Who are Curing Cancer and How to Prevent Getting It In the First Place. The book highlights Ms. Somers’ personal experience with cancer while also detailing how conventional medicine has mismanaged the treatment and prevention of cancer. Through interviews with more than 10 doctors and health experts in the world of alternative medicine, Somers offers a new path toward wellness and prevention, with therapies and advice overlooked by most doctors. Dr. Whitaker is a noted author, lecturer, and television personality. He has written about alternative therapies for cancer for nearly 30 years, and works closely with renowned cancer specialist Dr. Stanislaw Burzynski, featured in Ms. Somers’ book. In the forward, Dr. Whitaker highlights his experience with conventional medicine’s approach to cancer, stating his belief that “the underlying issue is that the entire cancer treatment ‘industry’ has been following a faulty paradigm for close to a hundred years.” He goes on to say that “like all failed paradigms in human history, this one is coming to an end, and I expect that Knockout will hasten its demise.” Dr. Whitaker goes on to pose three critical questions that every cancer patient should ask their doctor when they are investigating their treatment options. He not only provides insights about how to interpret your physician’s answers to these questions, but praises Ms. Somers for providing alternatives for you to consider. Like Ms. Somers, Dr. Whitaker is an outspoken voice and champion of consumer freedom. Thousands of patients have found a different path to health, well-being and longevity at his clinic, the Whitaker Wellness Institute, since it was founded in 1979.

Dr. Susan Lark’s Squalane Now Made From Olives, Not Shark Liver FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Lauren Kent, 301-340-7788 x1193
lkent@healthydirections.com (Potomac, MD) — Dr. Susan Lark is proud to announce that she is reformulating her squalane skin care line. The new line will contain squalane sourced from olives rather than shark livers. The new formula, called Trilane, is currently in development. It will contain 100 percent natural, eco-friendly squalane sourced from olives, which has the same hydrating properties as shark-derived squalane, but without the worry of the overfishing associated with shark squalane. In addition, the new formula will contain natural jojoba esters, a botanically-derived emollient that has been shown to reduce fine lines and wrinkles and improve skin firmness. “Squalene is a powerful, natural antioxidant found in all human tissues, with the greatest concentration in the skin,” explains Dr. Lark. “I first learned of this wonderful moisturizing oil more than a decade ago from one of my colleagues in the natural health field came to visit me. Squalane has been one of my absolute favorite skin care product ever since. And the new formula promises to be the ideal choice for women of all ages.” According to Linda Werner, Vice President and General Manager of Women’s Health at Healthy Directions, “We are thrilled to have found an olive-based source of squalane for our Trilane line. This allows us to provide our customers with the amazing benefits of Dr. Lark’s top-selling squalane, while adding the proven moisturizing and toning properties of jojoba esters. Together, these two ingredients will help minimize the signs of aging from a lifetime of exposure to sun, wind, smoke, pollution, and harsh chemicals.” Olive-derived squalane is a result of the olive oil industry. After pressing the olives to obtain olive oil, the leftover material is then used to extract squalene, which is then converted into squalane. Jojoba esters are made from jojoba seed oil, which is actually a liquid wax made up of long chain wax esters. They are very stable and highly resist oxidation, making them very useful in cosmetic formulations. About Susan M. Lark, MD Dr. Lark has devoted her career to raising awareness of women's health issues, such as PMS, obesity, hormone replacement therapy, and osteoporosis. She pioneered the use of women's self-care treatments based on diet, nutrition, exercise, and stress management, and has penned 12 books on women’s health and healing. Her most recent title is Hormone Revolution. Her monthly newsletter, Women's Wellness Today, and her Web site, www.drlark.com, are dedicated to educating and empowering women to make the best choices for optimum health and beauty. Online visitors may sign up for Dr. Lark's free biweekly e-newsletter, which presents breaking health and beauty news, along with lifestyle tips, easy recipes, and simple exercises for health and beauty. * * * Healthy Directions, LLC, is America's largest publisher of alternative and complementary health newsletters, and produces a number of online resources that provide authoritative health solutions to consumers.

ARX and Faster Tomorrow Sponsor Professional Triathlete Terenzo Bozzone FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Sandy Haynes at 301-340-7788, ext. 1054
shaynes@healthydirections.com 
(Potomac, MD) — Faster Tomorrow, a division of Healthy Directions, LLC, is proud to announce its sponsorship of professional triathlete Terenzo Bozzone. Bozzone has gained international attention since his 2006 win at the Wildflower Triathlon and his 2008 wins at Ironman 70.3’s Kansas, Boise, and Vineman. He was recently featured in the October issue of Triathlete magazine.
“I am honored to be working with the Faster Tomorrow team and their flagship product ARX,” says Bozzone. “For me, the difference between winning and a back seat in the top 10 is how fast I can recover from hard training. The faster I can recover, the more key workouts I can hit in a training block. ARX helps boost my performance and helps speed up my recovery time. It doesn’t matter if you are 23 or 53, faster recovery translates into results.”
ARX is a unique, proprietary blend of all-natural ingredients proven to increase endurance and shorten recovery time. The results of human clinical studies suggest ARX effectively shuttles lactic acid from muscles during endurance athletics such as running and cycling. By sweeping lactic acid into the bloodstream, through the liver and back into cells for re-absorption, muscles are provided a preferred form of fuel, increasing endurance and stamina and reducing post-exercise recovery.
Healthy Directions, LLC CEO Kevin Donoghue says, “We are delighted to welcome Terenzo to the Faster Tomorrow family. We are thrilled to have such a remarkable up-and-coming athlete on our team and look forward to a long and successful partnership. We hope that we can contribute to his future success, starting with the Ironman World Championship 70.3 in Clearwater on November 8th.”

Susan Lark, MD, and Healthy Directions Develop Nutritional Formula for Balancing Digestive Health FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Julie Kaplan at 301-340-7788, ext. 1160
jkaplan@healthydirections.com POTOMAC, Md., May 26, 2005—Susan Lark, MD, noted clinical nutritionist and women’s health pioneer, has formulated Daily Balance Probiotic Answer, a nutritional supplement formula to help keep women’s digestive systems strong and running smoothly and efficiently. Dr. Lark’s Probiotic Answer is available exclusively through Doctors’ Preferred, LLC, a subsidiary of Healthy Directions, one of the largest North American direct-mail supplement distributors.
According to Dr. Lark, many women have a digestive system that’s out of balance, causing such common symptoms as bloating, flatulence, irregularity and indigestion. “Strengthening and balancing your digestive system is one of the best ways to ensure glowing health,” says Dr. Lark, “because your digestive system is the only way your cells can actually get the vitamins, minerals and nutrients they need from the food you eat. So it’s not just what you eat, but how well you absorb what you eat.”
Probiotic Answer supports two distinct but complementary functions necessary for optimal digestive health:
- Improves your digestion with a range of enzymes. Your body needs digestive enzymes to break down foods into molecules that can pass through the intestinal wall and be absorbed by your cells. The cells, in turn, convert these molecules into energy. Dr. Lark’s formula contains a full range of digestive enzymes—10 in all—that the body uses to break down carbohydrates, protein and fat.
- Balances your intestinal flora with health-promoting live bacteria. There are over 400 different species of natural and necessary bacteria that live in your intestines. They help break down hard-to-digest foods, promote healthy bowel movements, support immune system activity and fortify the walls of your digestive tract, balancing your intestinal flora. Dr. Lark’s formula contains two important strains of live, active bacteria specially encapsulated in tiny “beadlets” that protect them from your stomach acid so they can reach your intestines alive and get to work.
“What’s wonderful about this formula is that you’re going to notice improvements in the way you feel right away,” says Dr. Lark. “So much of our life as women centers around the kitchen and table,” adds Dr. Lark. “I’d like to see women regain pleasurable associations with food, to feel comfortable in their bodies, and achieve stronger overall health for years to come.”
Dr. Lark has devoted her career to raising awareness of women’s health issues, such as obesity, hormone replacement therapy and osteoporosis. She pioneered the use of women’s self-care treatments based on diet, nutrition, exercise and stress management, and has penned a number of books, including The Estrogen Decision and her most recent title, which she co-authored, The Chemistry of Success: Six Secrets of Peak Performance.
Her monthly newsletter, Women's Wellness Today, with a circulation of more than 90,000 subscribers, and her web site, www.drlark.com, are dedicated to educating and empowering women to make the best choices for optimum health. Online visitors may sign up for Dr. Lark’s free biweekly e-newsletter, which presents breaking health news along with lifestyle tips, easy recipes and simple exercises for health and well-being.

Simplicity Pioneer Janet Luhrs and Phillips Health Join Forces to Launch Lifestyle Publication and Web Site FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Linda Werner, 301-340-7788 x1028 lwerner@phillips.com (Potomac, MD) -- Janet Luhrs, internationally-recognized leader in the world of simplicity, has joined Phillips Health (PH Opco, LLC), to publish her monthly newsletter Simple LivingTM and Web site www.simpleliving.com. Ms. Luhrs gave up a career in law to practice mindful simplicity, and to educate others about the abundance this lifestyle offers. She has been writing and self-publishing Simple Living since 1993.
Through her newsletter and Web site, Ms. Luhrs will offer readers guidance on a wide variety of topics that will help them live a more deliberate, simple life. She will present strategies for managing finances, reducing clutter, living better on less, enjoying exotic vacations at lower prices, and much more. Ms. Luhrs will also provide investigative evaluations of products and services that help to make life simpler.
Janet Luhrs is the author of The Simple Living Guide: A Sourcebook for Less Stressful, More Joyful Living, a comprehensive discussion of strategies and resources that help you manage every aspect of your life. She includes in-depth, inspirational solutions to every type of problem a person could encounter: home, family, career, finances, nutrition, holidays, children, and -- most importantly -- time. Ms Luhrs has also written Simple Loving: A Path to Deeper, More Sustainable Relationships.
"Simple living is about living deliberately," says Ms. Luhrs. "You choose your existence rather than sailing through life on automatic pilot. It’s about making deliberate, thoughtful choices. Being fully aware of why you are living your particular life, and that your life is one you have chosen thoughtfully."
As a leader in the voluntary simplicity movement, Ms. Luhrs leads seminars across the country to help people save time, enhance their health, learn how to make their money work for them -- and teach them how to say "no" and enjoy life. She inspires people to prioritize the things that compete for their time, while also offering practical advice, products, tips, and strategies to help them gain a greater sense of well-being.
"While prosperity and dual-incomes have enabled Americans to enjoy unprecedented options -- doing more, owning more, achieving more -- they have also created a complexity that cause many people to feel overwhelmed and lose sight of their true purpose, of who they are," explains Linda Werner, Vice President, Women’s Group, Phillips Health. "Janet shows you how to ‘strip your meaningless things away and enjoy your prosperity with more ease and flow.’ And isn’t that what we’re all looking for?"

Susan Lark, MD, and Phillips Health Create Formula to Support Overall Brain Health, Mental Performance and Memory FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Jennifer Myers at (301) 340-7788, ext. 6120 or Julie Kaplan at (301) 340-7788, ext. 1160 (POTOMAC, Md., July 7, 2004) -- Susan Lark, MD, noted medical researcher, clinical nutritionist and women’s health practitioner, has formulated a new nutritional supplement for women called Daily Balance Memory Answer, designed to nourish the brain and enhance women’s ability to focus, concentrate, recall details and stay mentally motivated and sharp. Dr. Lark’s memory formula is available exclusively through Doctors’ Preferred, Inc. (DPI), a subsidiary of Phillips Health, one of the largest North American direct-mail supplement distributors.
"Starting in their thirties, many women experience a noticeable decrease in their attention span and their ability to recall a name or word that’s on the tip of their tongue," says Dr. Lark. "My patients often complain of a distracted feeling and slower thought processing."
While a healthy diet and moderate exercise can help improve memory, Dr. Lark has brought together eight nutrients that also play a key role.
Daily Balance Memory Answer includes:
- Chinese Skullcap and Acacia -- Known as LasoperinTM, a proprietary herbal blend that has been the subject of a recent study. Preliminary findings suggest LasoperinTM improves focus, attention and speed of processing.
- DMAE -- Used by the body to create choline, possibly the most crucial nutrient for proper brain function, an essential building block for acetylcholine (ALC) and the neurotransmitter responsible for thinking and memory.
- Tyrosine -- By enhancing levels of dopamine, the "cheerleader" neurotransmitter in your brain that makes you feel energized and motivated, this nutrient helps promote mental functioning under stress.
- Alpha lipoic acid (ALA) -- ALA, along with LasoperinTM and ALC complete a trio of powerful antioxidants that can pass through the blood-brain barrier to help neutralize free radicals and help keep individual brain cells healthy and active.
- Ginkgo biloba -- A "memory" herb that enhances blood circulation to the brain. A recent study suggests it improves attention and performance on memory tests of post-menopausal women.
- Folic acid, vitamin B6 and vitamin B12 -- Nutrients that convert the amino acid homocysteine into the building blocks for neurotransmitters.
"This formula can make a tremendous difference in the way women enjoy their busy lives," says Dr. Lark. "With all of the exciting advancements in brain health, mental fog is not something we have to live with anymore."
Dr. Lark has devoted her career to raising awareness of women’s health issues, such as obesity, hormone replacement therapy and osteoporosis. She pioneered the use of women’s self-care treatments based on diet, nutrition, exercise and stress management, and has penned a number of books, including The Estrogen Decision and her most recent title, which she co-authored, The Chemistry of Success: Six Secrets of Peak Performance.
