 It creates and sells honest products, it does tremendous good conserving land and communities in the rainforest, and it is reinventing the economic models for sustainable rainforests. And it's doing this by creating a system in which the rainforest is more valuable alive than dead. That's a phenomenal achievement. By purchasing these products (like Fiberzon and Digestazon), you're helping to support that economic model in addition to enhancing your own health.
One final thought in all of this: some people have difficulty with the Fiberzon taste. Personally I think it's great. |

 You win, the people around you benefit, the rainforest benefits, the native populations in Peru benefit by being able to earn an honest living by harvesting native plants in their natural environment, and you also win by sharing the energy and intention of healing at many levels.
Is this right for me?
If you're out there reading this and you don't know if the Amazon Herb product line or business opportunity is right for you, then keep reading (and remember, I am not involved with this company in any way, so this is not some clever solicitation). |

 New rainforest herbal concentrates
One company that's gaining recognition in the United States has developed a technology to concentrate and encapsulate liquid rainforest botanicals inside a veggie capsule, allowing consumers to get all the medicinal benefits of rainforest herbs without needing to taste them on the way down.
This is a company I've mentioned before on NewsTarget, but this new product line is so innovative that it deserves additional recognition. It is by far the most convenient and medicinally-dense herbal delivery format that I've seen in the industry. |
| I'll bring you the details on this product, where you can get it, and how to use it to save yourself from infections of all kinds: viral, bacterial and even fungal.

| Kudos to the Amazon Herb company for this latest innovation in rainforest medicine for consumers.
Keep your eye on the ball
By the way, the Amazon Herb company is growing rapidly. And this is where many companies really hit the big challenges. How do you stay grounded in your ethics, passion and vision when the company gets so large that it necessarily has to deal with multiple departments and bureaucracies?
And some companies, when they get to a certain size, cave in to profit pressures and start to water down their formulas. |
| Whether it's Chinese herbs or rainforest botanicals, I prefer to taste the medicine I'm taking. But you may not want to (most westerners, who eat far too much sugar, find these herbs to be extremely bitter). And that's the whole point of the capsules. You can take these herbs and benefit from them without having to taste them if you don't want to.
There are two other major advantages worth noting. The liquid forms of these herbs are far more potent than the powders, and they're much easier to assimilate. |
| This Liquizon line of products includes the company's flagship formulas like Illumination (a combination of eighteen rainforest herbs) and Una de Gato (also known as Cat's Claw, a potent immune modulator and a formula used by many who are either preventing cancer or fighting cancer). Other Liquizon products include Warrior, Sumacazon (based on suma and maca), Recovazon (for recovery from injury or physical exertion), Calmazon (reduces stress, calms the mind and body), Arcozon and others. |

| It's not that the company is doing a lot of good things for the rainforest, even though that's also true and that's a very important part of their success equation. But I think the primary reason is because it creates a product that has energetic qualities that far surpass any other commercially available nutritional supplement I've ever encountered. What that means is that these products have the ability to alter the way your body metabolizes energy. |
| John sees himself as a facilitator, a bridge between the rainforest and Western civilization, and he explained that role with a great degree of honesty and forthrightness about his own journey.
Honoring a person's life journey and life purpose
The other thing that's important to note in assessing the character of people you'd like to have around you is to learn about their personal journey. What difficulties did they go through and how did they arrive at their current beliefs? How did they acquire the paradigms under which they presently operate? |
| This is a man who understands the economics of sustainable revenue models for the rainforest; he understands what it means to give back to a community and he understands the business challenges of bringing this to a population here in the United States.
But let's talk about the products for a minute, because that's what gets most people excited about this company. And when it comes to these products, I can speak far more freely about them than Amazon John can. That's because the current regulatory environment in the U.S. |
| But what we see in John today is a man who recognizes that those treasures were illusions -- that the true treasures of the rainforest were hidden in the plants all this time. These are the treasures of nature, the wealth provided by the healing potential of these plants. And he was able, through a personal transformation process requiring several years, to question his own distortions and arrive at a new understanding of what treasure really means. Today, through the Amazon Herb Company, he is able to communicate that new vision of what treasure really means to the Western world. |
| I'd like to see tens of thousands of acres of rainforest in Peru as part of this program to grow and harvest herbs and bring them to the United States where they can help save lives. And frankly, I'd like to see Amazon John and the other principals of his company receive tremendous rewards for having the courage to step forward and do this, and I don't mean just financial rewards, I mean recognition -- the kind of global recognition that says these are pioneering people who have done something deeply significant for mankind. Nobel Prize recognition. |

One final thought in all of this: some people have difficulty with the Fiberzon taste. Personally I think it's great. It's much better than just pure psyllium husk, so I like it. But some people have difficulty with it. |

 National Cancer Institute has identified more than 3,000 plants that are active against cancer cells, and 70 percent of these plants are found only in the rainforest.
Bioprospecting
In 1983, there were no U.S. pharmaceutical manufacturers involved in research programs to discover new drugs or cures from plants. Today, more than 100 pharmaceutical companies, including giants like Merck, Abbott, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Eli Lilly, Monsanto, Smith-Kline Beecham, as well as several branches of the U.S. |

This—as well as all of the information found in this book—is not a medical claim or recommendation to use herbs in place of proper medical care. Please always check with a qualified health practitioner before beginning any herbal medicine program on your own— especially if you are taking prescription drugs or have (or think you may have) a serious medical disorder or disease. |

| REPPED: A tall, fair-skinned blonde woman traveling down the Amazon River and into the remote areas of the Amazon rainforest is an oddity of sorts. However, for most of my life I've been told that I'm odd. Admittedly, trekking through jungles, studying the plant knowledge of indigenous Indian shamans and South American herbal healers, getting harassed in airport customs with a suitcase full of strange-looking murky liquids, bark, leaves, and roots, and running a large corporation in the process, is pretty unusual. However, it never really was a goal of mine to just be "usual. |
| Waiting for my flight home in the Lima airport in Peru, I sat there sunburned, bug-bit, tired, and excited and decided that not only did I want to start a new company in the States to begin importing this wonderful plant called cat's claw but that I also had to try to make a difference to help stop the destruction of the Amazon rainforest. I didn't quite know how then, but I knew that an odd, determined, stubborn, rebellious sort of person such as myself had as good a chance as anyone else did. |

| My own recommendation of this company, for one, depends entirely on it staying true to its current philosophy of pure products, rainforest protection and honest business practices.
It will probably never be "mainstream" because the average consumer isn't interested in paying for quality supplements. Average consumers want the watered-down, sugared-coated supplements that let them imagine they're getting good nutrition when they really aren't. Only a special kind of quality-minded consumer will really understand why the Amazon Herb products are so unique and valuable. |

| It sounds almost too simple, but it's effective and it works.
The only component left to make this business strategy work is to create the market demand for these sustainable forest resources so that it can result in profits for those participating. That's not as hard as it sounds either. The alternative health and natural/herbal products industry in the United States is growing at an unprecedented rate. |

 The destruction of the rainforest for grazing land and the resultant greenhouse effect is another example of the deleterious effects of a flesh-centered diet on our ecosystem. An article in the Vegetarian Times estimates that current rainforest destruction causes the extinction of approximately 1,000 species per year. For each fast-food quarter-pound hamburger, 55 square feet of the rainforest are destroyed. One hundred species become extinct for 2 billion fast-food burgers sold. The erosion on the land used for livestock in the U.S. |

 For those of you who don't know, Durian is an exotic rainforest fruit that has a very peculiar smell. (Some simply say it stinks, but that depends on your personal taste.) I remember flying into Malaysia a few years ago, and someone had actually stuffed a Durian fruit into the overhead compartment of the airplane. Every passenger on that plane was then treated to a three hour long "fragrance endurance test" by the Durian fruit. Ever since that experience, I have not been able to enjoy Durian fruit, but your own experience might be different... |
