What are people saying about the ARIIX Slendriix quick weight loss program?

“As a first-time mom, I took advantage of pregnancy to eat anything I wanted – cupcakes, ice cream, cookies, you name it. After having my baby, reality hit in a big way. I was 40 pounds over my pre pregnancy weight. I went on an extreme diet and lost 25 pounds, but gained back another 30 pounds as soon as I went off the diet. With the ARIIX Slendriix quick weight loss program, I lost 21 pounds in 18 days… and I didn’t gain it back 30 days after going off the diet.”

“Wow! I just lost 11 pounds in 7 days! Not only that, my skin tone got smoother and clearer. What’s up with that? The ARIIX Slendriix quick weight loss program is simple, fast, and efficient.”

“I’ve been on Atkins, the lemonade diet, the cayenne diet, starvation diets, you name it, I tried it. But the weight always came back. I was part of the beta testing for the ARIIX Slendriix quick weight loss program. It was amazing! I lost 25 pounds in 30 days. I haven’t worn a size 32 jean since college. I’m in my 50′s, and I’m back to my high school weight. This stuff really works!”

“I’ll admit, I was a fast food junkie. I work out, so it didn’t show that much, but I was carrying an extra “inner tube” around the middle. I lost 21 pounds in 30 days. But here’s the best part. When I was finished, I didn’t have the cravings for my Burger King Whopper. I stopped taking the ARIIX Slendriix quick weight loss drops at the end of 30 days. I continued to work out and lost another 6 pounds the following month. It was just the bump my body needed to get rid of the extra weight around my belly.”

“I lost 25 pounds in 25 days. Now I have a new problem. Nothing fits! I tossed out my “skinny jeans” years ago. I can’t wait to go clothes shopping!”

“For years, I fought so hard to lose weight. I didn’t eat pizza, I didn’t eat hamburgers. I was overweight and felt like I was working hard just to stay fat. It was like running uphill on gravel. I never seemed to get anywhere. Nothing made a difference. ARIIX invited me to be one of the beta testers for the ARIIX Slendriix quick weight loss program. Imagine my surprise when I lost 29 pounds in 30 days! It was a miracle! And I haven’t gained the weight back. Thank you, ARIIX!”

What Causes Weight Gain?

According to the Mayo Clinic, one in three adults in the U.S. is afflicted with obesity. Eating a healthy diet and exercising is the first line of defence in preventing and reversing obesity. But for a growing number of people, diet and exercise alone are not having an impact. To understand why this happens, it’s important to become familiar with some key players in the biochemical processes that affect weight.

Metabolism
Metabolism is a set of chemical reactions that produces energy in our bodies. Energy production is measured in calories. Each body needs a different number of calories to maintain a set point, or basal metabolism. Basal metabolism varies from person to person according to size, age, sex, and physical activity.

Hypothalamus
The hypothalamus is a portion of the brain that regulates the routing of energy for the body’s processes. The hypothalamus acts like a biochemical thermostat, telling the body how many calories are needed for energy and how many calories are needed for storage. In this way, the hypothalamus controls the body’s “set point” which determines your body weight.

Pituitary Gland
The pituitary is a pea-sized gland at the base of the brain. It is responsible for growth, blood pressure, sex organ function, temperature regulation, thyroid gland function and metabolism.

Thyroid Gland
The thyroid gland is located in the throat. The thyroid hormones play a role in metabolism, boosting the number of calories you burn each day.

How Does ARIIX’s Slendriix Quick Weight Loss Program Work?

ARIIX’s Slendriix drops cause the hypothalamus to mobilize fat out of the body’s fat storage areas. The hypothalamus regulates the pituitary gland, the thyroid, adrenals, fat storage, and most importantly, your metabolic rate. By influencing the body’s metabolic command center, ARIIX’s Slendriix causes the release of fat stores around the waist that are normally only accessed during pregnancy and famine.

Is ARIIX’s Slendriix Quick Weight Loss Program Safe?

Absolutely.

• Slenderiix is manufactured in the USA by an FDA-approved facility.
• Slenderiix gives you a Hormone-Free formula to maximize your diet results by providing a 100% homeopathic formula.
• Slenderiix is a complete formula. It is not a watered-down version of amino acids.
• Slenderiix uses a multi-phased approach combined with a 1250-calorie diet to promote sustainable weight loss.

Finding a quick source of plant-based protein can be challenging. Most food manufacturers have jumped on the soy bandwagon. But taking that path involves several pitfalls.  First, soy is difficult for the body to digest. This means gassiness and bloating for most folks and serious cramping for others.

Second, many experts say that soy protein isolate, which is the form of soy in protein shakes, bars, and “fast-food” vegetarian products, is dangerously high in phytoestrogens, which mimic estrogen in the body. Soy is also goitrogenic, meaning it prevents the thyroid from getting the necessary amount of iodine.

And if that isn’t enough quell your enthusiasm for soy, consider this: soy contains enzyme-inhibitors that block mineral absorption in the human digestive tract. Those minerals are important for detoxifying and cleansing the body.

So where can you find a quick, safe plant-based protein that is easily digested?

ARIIX PureNourish Plant Protein

Protein is essential to good health. According to the Harvard School of Public Health, a lack of protein can lead to muscle loss, decreased immunity, heart problems and respiratory issues. Often overlooked, however, is the fact that not all proteins are created equal, and not every protein works the same for everyone.

Vegetable-based proteins like the ones in ARIIX’s PureNourish are an excellent choice for most, because they offer the benefit of being easily digested. ARIIX PureNourish vegan smoothie powder begins by providing an all-vegetable protein blend including pea protein, cranberry protein and almond protein, supporting your weight management goals while helping to build lean muscle. Research has found that the proteins extracted from the common garden pea provide natural support for blood pressure and kidney health. Cranberry protein offers the same benefits as cranberries in their natural state, as does almond protein.

ARIIX PureNourish Digestive Support

ARIIX PureNourish vegan smoothie powder contains the three primary ingredients that are most beneficial to digestive health: fiber, probiotics and digestive enzymes.

ARIIX PureNourish provides 20% of daily fiber requirements as well as 19 vitamins and minerals. Most people do not consume adequate amounts of fiber for preventing colon cancer and other forms of disease caused by long-term toxic build-up in the gut. Consuming fiber also helps to prevent weight gain and supports healthy cholesterol and blood sugar levels.

ARIIX PureNourish vegan smoothies features a unique blend of probiotics and beneficial enzymes that support healthy digestion. Studies show that probiotics, or “good” bacteria, support healthy gastrointestinal function.

Pineapple and papaya provide beneficial enzymes that help break down proteins for easy digestion. By incorporating these potent digestive enzymes into ARIIX PureNourish vegan smoothie powder, the PureNourish blend supports a healthy gastrointestinal system.

ARIIX PureNourish Uses Natural Low Glycemic Sweeteners

With all the benefits this amazing product provides, it’s incredible that it still tastes great. ARIIX PureNourish vegan smoothie powder is sweetened with luo han guo, the extract of a very sweet fruit found in China. Luo han guo is low-glycemic and low in calories. It also contains xylitol, a sweetener derived from the fibrous parts of plants and Swerve, another low-calorie sweetener derived from the fibers of fruits and vegetables.

Because ARIIX;s PureNourish is low-glycemic, it won’t cause your energy levels to spike and dip. PureNourish provides a stable source of energy through an optimal blend of proteins, fiber, and smart carbohydrates.

ARIIX PureNourish Vegan Smoothies are the Smart Choice for Quick Nourishment

With ARIIX PureNourish vegan meal replacement shakes, you do not have to rely on willpower alone to help you in your commitment to eat smart. If you are hungry, you can quickly and easily whip up a delicious and healthy smoothie that will satisfy your cravings without spiking your blood sugar. Combining these cutting-edge shakes with your health and wellness routine can help you overcome carbohydrate dependence and regain control of your health.

Detox centers have been cropping up all over the world. These centers typically cost thousands of dollars and require time away from family and work. A multitude of detox products have also surfaced in stores and on the internet. Many of these products are ineffective or even dangerous. In some cases, they encourage the body to release toxins into the blood stream, but fail to provide a binding agent to safely transfer heavy metals out of the body. This poses a serious health risk.

What makes ARIIX’s Restoriix different?

ARIIX’s Restoriix takes a multi-dimensional approach to supporting health.
1) Restoriix’s ingredients are specially formulated to attract toxins, bind them, and safely transport them out of the body.
2) Restoriix contains ingredients that support the immune system and facilitate the cleansing process, minimizing uncomfortable side-effects of detoxification.
3) Restoriix decreases inflammation in the body by creating a more alkaline environment.

Restoriix Zeolites Detoxify

The main ingredient in ARIIX’s Restoriix is zeolites. Zeolites have been thoroughly tested for both effectiveness and safety in toxic cleanup. In fact, zeolites were a key player in the cleanup after the nuclear disasters in Chernobyl and Fukushima. Other ingredients that Restoriix uses to support the detox process include chlorella and willow tree bark.

Zeolites Zeolites are microporous minerals of volcanic origin. Zeolites are formed when lava hits sea level. These alkaline minerals have the ability to attract heavy minerals and bind them in the colon where heavy metals tend to accumulate in the body. ARIIX has obtained an exclusive patented form of zeolite that has a larger surface area than other zeolites, activated by a unique process, giving it more space to bind to heavy metals and dangerous toxins. This form of zeolites has been so effective in transfering heavy metals out of the body, they have been registered as a medical device in Europe.

Chlorella Chorlella is a powerful tool in the detox process. Chlorella is one of the most effective agents in binding mercury, lead and cadmium.

Willow Tree Bark Activated charcoal made from willow tree bark can bond and carry more than its own weight in toxins. It has been valued for its health-promoting properties since the time of Hippocrates.

Restoriix Cleanses

Restoriix contains ingredients that support immune health and aid in the process of transporting toxins out of the body. These ingredients often help to mitigate the uncomfortable effects of the detoxification process.

Chlorella In addition to playing a role in the detoxification process, chlorella supports the body’s natural cleaning process, playing a key role in elimination systems such as the bowel, liver and blood.

Spirulina Spirulina is derived from fresh-water algae. It provides micro-nutrients that are not found in a typical diet. Spirulina contains all the essential amino acids.

Chia Seeds Though chia seeds were a standard part of Aztec and Mayan diets in pre-Columbian times, they are only recently gaining popularity among modern health-conscious individuals for their nutritional value as a source of omega 3 fatty acids and antioxidants. Chia seeds are largely comprised of soluble fiber and absorb 9-12 times their weight in water. This makes them very effective in the process of expelling toxins from the body.

Restoriix also contains beneficial metals and minerals like magnesium, calcium, potassium and sodium which help to build up the body’s natural defense systems.

Restoriix Alkalizes

Restoriix mobilizes acidic metabolic wastes like ammonia and harmful bacteria. This helps to alkalize the body, which is extremely beneficial in fighting inflammation and degenerative disease.

Zeolites Zeolites alkalize the body, providing high oxygen levels that help fight disease and preserve lean muscle mass.

Chlorophyllin Chlorophyllin, the pigment that gives green foods their color, is also incredibly powerful in the alkalizing process. It is useful in building new blood cells and purifing the body.

In short, ARIIX’s Restoriix is a detox center in a bottle. No product on the market can come close to its multifunctional support of the body in aiding the complex process of detoxification.

Thailand is aptly called “The Land of Smiles”. Thailand’s warm climate is matched by the warmth of the smiles on friendly faces that have welcomed us from the moment our plane landed. Even customs officials here seem much more welcoming than those we have encountered in other places.

The expansion of ARIIX into Thailand has presented a great opportunity for our family to learn about this beautiful country. From the Chaingmai, the center of Thailand’s textile production in the north to the world-class beaches of Phuket in the south, Thailand provides tastes, smells, sights and sounds that intrigue and delight the senses.

The wonderful thing about doing business in multiple countries is the opportunity to visit new places and meet new people. The ARIIX vision has universal appeal. No matter what language people speak, no matter what culture they come from, the time freedom and financial opportunities presented by this opportunity are enticing.

In fact, there are many ways to make money. Some require a lot of direct involvement (i.e. your blood, sweat and tears) for a low return. Some require little of your direct involvement (residual income) for a high return. The closer on the spectrum you can move from the former to the latter, the more time and money you will have to focus on things that make you happy instead of things that make you money.

To make things simple, we can break income opportunities into four quadrants:

1) Non Residual Income - Low Return

The individuals doing this kind of work comprise 95 percent of the rush hour traffic you find in every city and every country in the world. They leave early in the morning, come home late at night, live for the weekends and spend the best years of their lives trading hours for dollars.  In smaller towns, the story is the same, except they don’t  spend several hours sitting in a car. This is not a value judgement. We’ve all done it. But on the spectrum, non residual income – low income sources are a poor use of your most precious resource: time.

2) Non Residual Income - High Return

These are the people who the 95% aspire to be. They are the senior executives, vice presidents, doctors, lawyers, etc. They live in nice houses, drive expensive cars, belong to the yacht clubs and country clubs. They love the power and respect that their position brings. But I’ve got a secret to share with you. Just like you, they leave early in the morning (often earlier), come home late at night (some times later), live for the weekends (if they aren’t working this weekend), and spend the best years of their lives trading hours for dollars. Behind all the glitz and glamor you admire lives a person like you who is probably living paycheck-to-paycheck. They are broke too. Just at a higher level.

3) Residual Income - Low Return

You’ve probably heard that real estate is a great way to make residual income. Real estate is the most common example of leveraging money. Take a relatively small part of your own cash and borrow a relatively large amount of the bank’s money to buy income property. In a perfect world, this allows you to create a source for residual income. But the reality is that unless you have a lot of money to do this many times, have fabulous credit, and are comfortable with a high degree of risk, you will not make a lot of money. After paying interest, taxes, insurance, maintenance and allowing for vacancy, there is a high likelihood that your investment will be generating spending cash, not appreciable cash flow.

4) Residual Income - High Return

 Each of the other categories has its pros and cons.  For example, many non residual income sources provide a higher degree of security than high return residual income sources.  But high return residual income sources are attractive because they free you from the cycle of trading hours for dollars, always chasing the next paycheck.  Examples include recording contracts, book deals, and network marketing.  You do the work once, and get paid months and even years into the future. 

ARIIX provides the opportunity for high return residual income. As in the case of obtaining a recording contract or writing a best-selling novel, it takes an intial investment of time, dedication and perseverance. But unlike securing a recording contract or writing a best-selling novel, it does not take unique skills that are difficult to acquire.  If you would like to find out if you have what it takes to create a high return residual income business, fill out the form at the top of this page.

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services said, “Chronic disease is estimated to account for 35 million deaths worldwide. Cardiovascular disease and cancer comprise a major proportion of chronic diseases in both developed and developing countries. Other than cardiovascular disease and cancer, obesity-related diseases such as type 2 diabetes, end-stage renal disease, and osteoarthritis are also becoming significant public health problems. Many of these chronic diseases share common risk factors and underlying pathologic mechanisms that may be modified by nutrients. Examples include reduction of oxidative damage by antioxidants, DNA methylation regulated by folate and B vitamins, bone metabolism regulated by vitamin D and calcium, and cell differentiation, proliferation, and growth regulated by retinol, calcium, and vitamin D.”

It is evident that the world today is full of diseases and harmful substances. We may not be able to stop widespread toxic chemicals but we can help to prevent disease, one person at a time. Multivitamins are the most commonly used nutritional supplement in the U.S. and for good reason. Vitamins help to fortify and create energy, protection, functionality, happiness and healthiness within the body. In a world full of deficiency of nutrients through diet, disease, and depression ARIIX has created the multivitamin supplement for your maximum protection and healthy living.

INGREDIENTS in the ARIIX VITAMINS

Science hasn’t found a cure for the common cold. So why is it that some people seem to spend their entire winter sick while others are rarely afflicted with the seasonal flu or even the common cold? Do they live in a bubble or were they blessed with a strong immune system? What do they know that 98% of the population doesn’t?

Preventing Colds and Flu

We’ve all heard the old saying, “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” At no time was that adage more true than it is today. Our society is over-fed, over-drugged and under nourished. Strong immune systems are not the result of luck. They are created.  People with strong immune systems have several factors in common:

• Healthy people are conscious of what they put in their bodies. A larger percentage of their diets are comprised of fruits, vegetables, nuts and legumes.  They drink in moderation and abstain from smoking or use of drugs, even over-the-counter medications.  They consume significantly less sugar than most people.
• Healthy people are conscious of what they put on their bodies.  They use body care products that are free of harmful toxins or preservatives.  Health-conscious people use gloves when cleaning and choose non-toxic cleaners whenever possible.
• Healthy people make sure their bodies get the proper amount and quality of sleep.  People generally require 8 hours of sleep in a dark room free from electronics.  Sleep quality improves when food and alcohol are not consumed within 2 hours of bedtime.  Many people, especially people over the age of 35, benefit from taking a melatonin supplement before bedtime to improve quality of sleep.
• Healthy people practice stress management.  Whether it be yoga, regular exercise, meditation or conscious breathing, stress reduction techniques oxygenate the blood and reduce harmful hormone activity.
• They are physically active.  Healthy people recognize the importance of a whole body approach in keeping the immune system vibrant and strong.
• They take high quality nutritional supplements.  In addition to the benefits provided by a top-notch multi-vitamin, healthy people know about studies surrounding vitamin D and it’s effectiveness in preventing colds and flu.  They use high doses of vitamin C at the first sign of a cold.  They take supplements with powerful superfruit extracts like those found in Rejuvinex and Vinali.

Cheap Cold Remedies

Early detection is the key to preventing a cold. Listen to your body’s cues when you’re coming down with a bug. Does your throat feel tight prior to developing a sore throat? Do you feel tired before other symptoms develop? Learn your body’s unique signals and take immediate action. Here are some cheap cold remedies that should be implemented immediately upon suspicion of an oncoming illness:

Secret Cold Remedy #1 – Diet Strategies

1) Stop consuming sugar. This includes fruits with a high sugar content. Sugar wreaks havoc on the immune system.
2) Stop consuming grains and processed foods.
3) Eat a meal of salad or vegetables. Vegetables provide a pre-biotic which feeds probiotics, the healthy bacteria in the gut. This bacteria is your first line of defence in preventing illness.
4) Take a probiotic.  Probiotics support the immune system by competeing with invasive microorganisms.
5) Sprinkle your salad with herbs like oregano, basil and cilantro. These herbs are highly antimicrobial, but do not damage the body’s matrix of healthy bacteria.

Secret Cold Remedy #2 – Minimize Exposure to Environmental Toxins

1) Don’t use toxic laundry detergents or use toxic cleaning products of any kind.
2) Stay clear of areas with second hand smoke or heavy pollution.
3) Take a walk in the woods. A study in Japan showed a 50% increase in killer cells after test subjects took a walk in the woods.

Secret Cold Remedy #3 – Nutritional Supplements

1) Take ARIIX’s Vinali. Vinali contains a synergistic combination of Vitamin C and grape seed extract. Vitamin C, the “do-everything” nutrient, is a powerful antioxidant. It is essential for the formation, growth, and repair of bone, skin, and connective tissue. Because the body is not able to produce or store vitamin C, it must continually be replenished through diet. Grape seed extract has the ability to help the body fight viruses, allergens, and carcinogens. It also exhibits anti-inflammatory, anti-allergic, anti-cancerous and anti-microbial activity, so it offers tremendous support in warding off nearly all types of illness. The benefits of vitamin C and grape seed extract are compounded when presented together in a single supplement.
2) Take a highly Potent Antioxidants like ARIIX Optimal vitamin and mineral supplements.
3) Vitamin D – A study published in 2010 showed that children taking a low dose of Vitamin D3 were 42% less likely to come down with the seasonal flu.

Cold Remedies that Cure the Common Cold

Science may not have announced a cure for the common cold. But many individuals have been able to stave off a cold or even the season flu by identifying symptoms early, then treating immediately. A virus is most vulnerable when it first encounters your immune system. By giving your immune system a rapid burst of energy, you can give your body the edge it needs to overpower the invaders. There are several “treatments” that have been proven effective in waging war on infection:

Oregano Oil As a Cold Remedy
There are several plant extracts that are used as cold remedies. In sorting through the data, oregano oil is the most effective in killing a broad spectrum of invasive microorganisms while leaving your bodies’ beneficial bacterial support system in tact.  Oregano oil with a high concentration of  carvacrol is the most beneficial. Carvacrol is the most active antimicrobial agent in oregano oil.

When choosing oregano oil as a cold remedy, make sure the oil was extracted using a cold press process as heat damages carvacrol.  Several cheaper health food store brands use alchohol to extract the oil from the leaf. This impacts the efficacy and potency of the oregano oil as well.

When using oregano oil as a cold remedy, you can apply the oil directly to the feet. When using anywhere else on the body, it must be diluted with a “carrier” oil. A teaspoon of any vegetable oil, including olive oil, can be used with 3-4 drops of pure, concentrated oregano oil. The blend can be massaged around the neck and ear area to eliminate an ear infection, on the chest for pulmonary infection or even swallowed to relieve a sore throat.

Wash your hands with soap and water after using oregano oil as it can burn your eyes and nose.

Propolis as a Cold Remedy Propolis is bee resin and one of the most broad-spectrum antimicrobial compounds in the world; propolis is also the richest source of caffeic acid and apigenin, two very important compounds that aid in immune response.

Zinc as a Cold Remedy Zinc supplements have been shown to reduce the severity and duration of the common cold.  The optimal level is around 50mg.  Zinc should be taken at the first sign of a cold and should not be taken for more than a week.  Prolonged zinc consumption can lead to a copper imbalance in the body.

Vitamin D as a Cold Remedy
Vitamin D not only prevents colds and flu, it is an amazingly effective at curing them.  Vitamin D is an antimicrobial agent, producing 200 to 300 different antimicrobial peptides in your body that kill bacteria, viruses and fungi.

What is Ubiquinol?

Ubiquinol is the bioavailable form of CoQ10.  Your body naturally produces CoQ10 and then converts it to its active form, Ubiquinol. Ubiquinol is essential for cellular energy function, providing 95% of your body’s energy production. Ubiquinol provides sustained, natural energy from within. In addition, Ubiquinol delivers antioxidant protection that CoQ10 can’t provide, protecting your heart and other organs from free radical damage.

Around the age of 30, your body’s ability to produce and convert CoQ10 to Ubiquinol diminishes significantly. Some prescription medications can further deplete the amount of CoQ10 produced in your body. Taking a Ubiquinol supplement helps to restore optimal levels of Ubiquinol in the body, thereby preventing fatige and signs of aging.

How is Supplementing with Ubiquinol Different than Supplementing with CoQ10?

Conventional CoQ10 (Ubiquinone) and Ubiquinol are both forms of CoQ10. Ubiquinone is the oxidized form of CoQ10 with which most people are familiar; it has been available as a dietary supplement and studied for more than 30 years. Although researchers have known about Ubiquinol as long as they have Ubiquinone, Ubiquinol simply has not been commercially available due to its sensitivity to light and air.

♥       Ubiquinol has been shown to be more absorbable than conventional CoQ10 in every clinical trial to date.

♥       The body’s ability to efficiently convert CoQ10 to its usable form Ubiquinol decreases as we age or develop health maladies.

♥       Ubiquinol is the predominant form of CoQ10 in a healthy body. In fact, the predominant form of CoQ10 in the plasma and tissue in a healthy person is in the Ubiquinol form.

♥       Any health benefit a CoQ10 supplement user has experienced in the past has been because the body was able to effectively convert it to the usable Ubiquinol form.

In the body, CoQ10 must be converted to its usable form Ubiquinol to provide antioxidant protection or generate cellular energy. In young healthy individuals, this conversion process is very efficient. However as we age or become health compromised, the body’s ability to make this conversion diminishes. Because Ubiquinol is pre-converted, it is ready for immediate use by the body and therefore allows the body to utilize higher levels of CoQ10.

Ubiquinol delivers antioxidant protection that conventional CoQ10 cannot provide. Ubiquinol is one of the strongest lipid soluble antioxidants. It works hard to protect cells against damage from free radicals and oxidation, which are associated with the aging process and many age-related conditions.

Ubiquinol Supports Heart Health

Ubiquinol works in the mitochonria, the cell’s energy “furnaces”. Mitochonria are in highest concentration in muscle tissues. The highest concentration of mitochonria are in the heart. Ubiquinol is essential for heart health because it provides cellular energy to the heart, the organ in the body that requires the most energy to perform at its best. Unlike conventional CoQ10, Ubiquinol is an antioxidant, so supplementing with Ubiquinol provides more heart protection than supplementing with the less active form of CoQ10.

Ubiquinol Counteracts Some of the Negative Effects of Taking Statin Drugs

Ubiquinol crucial for persons on cholesterol-lowering statin drugs. In addition to reducing the amount of bad cholesterol in the liver, statin drugs can reduce the amount of CoQ10 in the liver as well. A lack of CoQ10 in the body can lead to chronic fatigue and muscle pain.

Ubiquinol Provides Sustained Natural Energy

Health conditions such as stress, fatigue and aging diminish the amount of Ubiquinol found in the body. Ubiquinol is a key component in 95% of the body’s energy production. Taking an Ubiquinol supplement helps to restore optimal levels the body needs to feel healthy and energized. Many people who supplement with Ubiquinol describe the effect as feeling more uplifted, with sustained energy throughout the day.

Ubiquinol Supports Vital Organs

Supplementing with Ubiquinol will restore healthy levels of CoQ10 in plasma and organs for more efficient energy production. This typically results in more energy and stamina, as well as better overall health.

Ubiquinol Slows the Aging Process

Ubiquinol is the strongest known lipid soluble antioxidant. It protects cells against damage from free radicals and oxidative stress, which are associated with the aging process and many age-related conditions.

Most home based business owners have a full-time career. Congress will subsidize you while you are growing your home based business. If your home based business produces a tax loss in the first year or so, you can use that tax loss against any other income you have. It can be used against wages earned as an employee, dividends, pensions, interest income – or you can use the loss against your spouse’s earnings if you file a joint return.

If the tax loss exceeds all your income for this year, no problem. You can carry back the loss two years and get a refund from the IRS for up to the last two years of income taxes paid, or you can carry over the loss twenty years. You read it right: You can offset up to 20 years of income!

Savvy entrepreneurs take every legal tax deduction they can.

Tax deductible home-business expenses include:

• Home office
• Office supplies
• Furniture
• Other equipment
• Software and subscriptions
• Vehicles and Mileage
• Travel, meals, entertainment and gifts
• Health insurance premiums
• Retirement contribution
• Telephone charges
• Child labor

1. Tax Deduction for Home Office

Are you concerned that claiming a home-office deduction is tantamount to sending an engraved invitation to an Internal Revenue Service auditor? Don’t be, says Jan Zobel, author of Minding Her Own Business: The Self-Employed Woman’s Guide to Taxes and Recordkeeping.
“I don’t agree that chances of getting audited are greater with a home-office deduction,” says Zobel, a San Francisco Bay-area tax expert, who specializes in serving the self-employed. The key is that you use the term “home office” the same way the IRS does. The tax agency says it must be a space devoted to your business and absolutely nothing else. Deducting the den that houses the family computer and serves as a guest bedroom won’t fly with Uncle Sam.”

“If you only have one computer and you have a child over four, the IRS is going to be pretty certain that the child is using the computer,” says Zobel. “And the burden of proof is on you.”

The deduction, however, isn’t limited to a full room. Your home office can be part of a room. Just how much of the space is deductible? Measure your work area and divide by the square footage of your home. That percentage is the fraction of your home-related business expenses — rent, mortgage, insurance, electricity, etc.– that you can claim.

2. Tax Deduction for Office Supplies

Even if you don’t take the home-office deduction, you can deduct the business supplies you buy. Hang onto those receipts, because these expenditures will offset your taxable business income.

3. Tax Deduction for Furniture

When your office supplies are more than just pens and paper, you have another tax-cutting opportunity.
Office-furniture acquisitions provide a couple of choices. Deduct 100 percent of the cost in the year of the purchase or deduct a portion of the expense over seven years, also known as depreciation.

To take the whole cost in one tax year you’ll use the Section 179 deduction (named for the part of the tax code where the law appears).

If you choose instead to depreciate the desks and filing cabinets, you can’t simply split the cost into equal portions over the depreciation period. Instead, you must use an IRS chart to make separate calculations each year.

Which is better for you? Anticipate the times that your business will need these deductions the most. Both options are reported on IRS Form 4562.

4. Tax Deduction for Other Equipment

Items such as computers, copiers, fax machines and scanners also are tax deductible. As with furniture, you can take 100 percent up front or depreciate – this time over five years.

5. Tax Deduction for Software and Subscriptions

Section 179 provides another tax break in this area of business expenses. Off-the-shelf software a business buys can be fully expensed in the year purchased. You can take the total cost of subscriptions as a full deduction in the year spent.

6. Tax Deduction for  Vehicles and Mileage

If you drive for business, the IRS wants to give you some of your money back. But Uncle Sam loves documentation, so keep a notebook in your vehicle to record the date, mileage, tolls, parking costs and the purpose of your trip.

At the end of the year, you have two choices. You can total the mileage and add in the tolls and parking to calculate your deduction. Once you have your mileage total, multiply it by 51 cents for 1/1/11-6/30/11 and 55.5 cents for 7/1/11-12/31/11. The 55.5 cent a mile deduction for business travel will continue on into 2012.

Or you can measure your business usage against your personal driving and deduct that portion of your auto-related expenses, says Zobel. Remember to include gas, repairs and insurance.

If you are leasing, include those payments. If you are buying the car, factor in the interest on your loan and depreciation on your vehicle.

“And if your company’s office is at your house, you get a bit more of a break. You can deduct the entire business-related mileage, from the minute you pull out of the driveway until you return home,” says Gary W. Carter, author of J.K. Lasser’s Taxes Made Easy for Your Home-Based Business: The Ultimate Tax Handbook for the Self-employed.

“If your business is not home-based, your mileage meter starts at your first business-related destination and ends at your last. You can’t include the drive to and from home,” says Carter, a CPA and professor at the University of Minnesota. “In this case, try to schedule several business appointments on the same day to allow you to take the mileage between stops as a tax write-off.”

7. Tax Deduction for Travel, Meals, Entertainment and Gifts

Good news, small-business travelers. You might as well stay in a nice hotel, because the entire cost is tax deductible. Likewise, the cost of travel — air, rail or auto — is 100 percent deductible, as are costs associated with life on the road (dry cleaning, rental cars and tipping the bellboy).

The only exception is eating out. You can deduct only 50 percent of your meals while traveling. So stay at the Ritz and eat at Subway.

Once you get home, your on-the-job meals aren’t deductible — unless you bring along a client to talk business. In this case, you might consider splurging on a fancier meal because then you can write off half such work-related dining costs.

The 50-percent deduction limit applies to most other client entertainment expenses, too. But a direct gift to a client or employee is 100 percent deductible, says Zobel, up to $25 per person per year.

8. Tax Deduction for Health Insurance Premiums

Self-employed and paying your own health insurance premiums? These costs are 100 percent deductible.
This break primarily benefits proprietor-ships, but there are limits. The deduction can’t be more than your business’ net profit. And it’s not allowed if you were eligible for other health care coverage, including that offered by your employed spouse’s medical plan.

Did your spouse work for you last year? “Then,” says Carter says, “you can get the full medical premiums deduction on your return. As an employee, your spouse’s premiums are 100 percent deductible; if you and the children were on her policy as dependents, so are those costs.”

Two caveats: 1) Your spouse’s employment must be real, not in name only, and you must offer coverage equally to any other employees. 2) Failure to meet these requirements could result in a lawsuit, an audit or both.

You also can include dental bills and some of the premiums you pay for long-term care insurance for yourself, your spouse or dependents.

9. Tax Deduction for Retirement Contributions

Self-employed taxpayers can adopt qualifying tax deferred retirement savings plans, such as Simplified Employee Pensions (SEP) and Simple IRA plans.  These plans allow business owners to take a tax deduction for contributions into these retirement plans.

10. Tax Deduction for Telephone Charges

You can deduct the cost of the business calls that you make for business from home. When your bill comes in, circle the business-related calls, total them up and keep a copy. At the end of the year, tally your 12 bills and deduct 100 percent.

The IRS assumes that you will have a phone in your house anyway, so Zobel cautions that regular fees and charges don’t count toward your deduction. But if you have a second line installed and use it only for business, all of these charges are deductible.

11. Tax Deduction for Child Labor

“It’s always good to employ your kids,” says Carter. Depending upon how much you paid them, they might be able to avoid income taxes. Plus, there is no Social Security tax when you hire your child who is 17 or younger and you can deduct the salary as a business expense. This break is available, however, only if you operate as a sole proprietor or as a partnership in which you and your spouse are the only partners. If your business runs as a corporation, then it, not you, are considered the employer and the corporation is not relieved of the tax liabilities.

Make the money go even further. Have your child contribute to a Roth IRA, says Carter. Not only have you gotten a nice tax deduction from the salary and trained your youngster to save, you’ve also help establish a nest egg for his or her future.
