Mannatech in Mexico! Huge Opportunity!

It's less than six months away before Mannatech, The World Leader in Wellness, opens up in Mexico.  For those of you that don't know. THIS IS A HUGE OPPORTUNITY!

When it comes to direct selling, Mexico is ranked sixth in the top performing global markets.  That's huge!  Let me put it this way. You've heard of Herbalife right? Herbalife is a global company open in about 70 countries. That is a lot of product to be sold world wide wouldn't you agree?  Now lets put this into perspective. 64% of Herbalife product is sold in Mexico. That's more than half the product sold from a mix of 70 countries. That's quite a bit of vitamins/product for one country to consume. Not to shabby right? 

What if a "real" product with "real" results, and real research was introduced to this market? Of course I'm talking about glyconutrients! Real Food Technology solutions! Not to compare Herbalife with the discovery of glyconutrients. I mean it just isn't really much of a comparison. And Yes! It really is a revolutionary discovery that is protected by patents, which have held up in the court of law.  This means only one company has it and only one can sell it. 

Is this crystallizing?

Do You Think You Could Make a Serious Income Offering it to The World?

Direct selling and most other industries had problems sustaining their business; however, during 2009, more direct sales companies did arrive to Mexico and started operations.”says Jesus Alvarez, Mexico DSA Chairman and General Manager of Amway Mexico. Alvarez adds that
nutrition and wellness companies are increasingly setting up shop in the nation and are taking on a more dominant role in the industry. Direct selling also fares well because it complements the Mexican culture of person-to-person selling and provides opportunities for lower-income people.

DID YOU KNOW:

Did you know that by 2020, it is predicted that Mexico will overtake Italy as the world’s 10th largest economy, in terms of Gross Domestic Product, according to Euromonitor International? Mexico benefits from a large and growing population, and its proximity to the United States is a major economic asset.

Is this making sense?

Did you know that by 2014, Mexico consumers are projected to spend almost $10 billion on health and wellness food and beverages, according to Euromonitor International? Mexico consumers are recognizing the growing importance of healthier living.

Here's something to ponder. Mexico is the door to Latin America, and Latin America is the door to the rest of the world. Anyone can do this. It's all about sharing with one person that shares with another. In essence, a domino effect. An opportunity like this may not come around again, as Mexico is next door.

With determination you have no choice but to succeed!

Most Promising Antioxidant to Date!

Independent Human Study Shows Mannatech's Ambrotose AO® Product to be Beneficial Antioxidant Supplement.  Mannatech announced the results of an independent human clinical study that demonstrated intake of its proprietary Ambrotose AO® capsules raised antioxidant protection in serum oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) in healthy adults, further validating a previous human study.

The effect on serum ORAC, a method of measuring antioxidant capacities, was very similar between the two studies. The 2010 five-week study by Dr. Stephen P. Myers of 21 healthy adults by physicians and scientists from Australia and New Zealand showed that four capsules per day of Ambrotose AO dietary supplement was safe and raised ORAC by 36.6 percent.

The 2003 pilot study of 12 healthy adults by Dr. Stephen Boyd, Mannatech's Senior Director, Medical Affairs, Mannatech scientists and an independent statistician showed that two capsules per day of Ambrotose AO capsules increased ORAC by 37.4 percent.

"We are proud to have two human clinical studies that consistently show our Ambrotose AO product improves antioxidant status of human blood. These results demonstrate antioxidants in Ambrotose AO capsules provide the best antioxidant protection available today," said Mannatech's Co-CEO and Chief Science Officer Robert A. Sinnott, MNS, Ph.D. "Antioxidants help reduce the amount of free radicals and oxidative stress that can damage or even kill cells. In addition to providing antioxidant support, many of the nutrients in Ambrotose AO capsules have been shown to promote a healthy immune system." Mannatech's Ambrotose AO capsules appear to be the most promising antioxidant supplement investigated to date.

Ambrotose AO capsules increased human serum ORAC levels more than a number of well-known antioxidant foods and other commercial products: in food studies, increases in serum ORAC have been documented following ingestion of strawberries (14.4 percent increase) or spinach (28.5 percent increase), buckwheat honey (7 percent increase) or Concord grape juice (8 percent increase). In a placebo-controlled trial of healthy adults, a single 100g dose of wild blueberry powder significantly increased serum ORAC by up to 16 percent and a single 1.25g dose of vitamin C raised serum ORAC by 23 percent. 

Additional studies of supplements designed to exert antioxidant benefits showed no effect on serum ORAC: a fruit-based antioxidant drink (MonaVie Active®). Professor Stephen Myers, Ph.D., BMed, ND is Director of the Australian Centre for Complementary Medicine Education and Research (ACCMER), a unique joint venture of the University of Queensland and Southern Cross University (SCU) and the NatMed-Research Unit, Research Cluster for Health and Wellbeing (NRURCHW), SCU, Lismore, AU. The study's findings were published in the peer reviewed BMC Complementary and Alternative Medicine.

Social Entrepreneurism!

By simply consuming a nutritious product that will improve your wellness you can reach a child around the world with the same amazing gift of nutrition.

Every year millions of children die of malnutrition, making it the leading cause of death of children. International food aid relies heavily on fortified blended foods to fight the problem of malnutrition. Unfortunately, these enriched flour based cereals are limited to provide all the nutrients children require. As a result the foods do not meet the minimum requirements set by the World Health Organization for young children.

By using an innovative donation through consumption funding model. Mannatech is addressing malnutrition on a global scale with Real Food Technology® solutions. Mannatech donates nutritional supplements formulated using Real Food Technology® solutions to at-risk children through the MannaRelief foundation. Mannatech pioneered the concept of combining cutting-edge science with food-sourced ingredients to create the most nutritionally beneficial products for the human body.

MannaRelief is a nonprofit charity organization providing advanced nutrients to malnourished children and orphans around the world.

Mannatech wins patent suits against five companies

Mannatech has proprietary rights to their glyconutrient technology. Mannatech has won patent infringement judgments against five companies accused of using the firm’s patented glyconutrients in products.

As the Dallas Business Journal reported in May, Mannatech previously had 17 competing products pulled off the shelves for using the patented technology.

Mannatech said Thursday it won judgments against the five companies — Micro Health Solutions, Wy’s Enterprises, Florida Nutri Labs, Angel Care USA and New Sun — after accusing the companies of manufacturing, using or selling products that infringe on its nutrient patents.
