The company whose products I sell were targeted by an investigative journalist in 2005- John Quinones, 7-time Emmy Award Winning investigative reporter.

14 YEARS after he did that ABC PrimeTime Investigative Report on our breakthrough technology, John is still taking our nrf2 activator.

The aim of the show was to 'de-bunk' our claims, but it did the exact opposite ;)

Have you seen the ABC investigative Report Programme ?
(It even shows the blood of an 80 year old going back to that of a 20 year old)! If not, message me & I will send it to you :)

The Investigative Report had Universities & Institutions from all over the world initiating and funding studies with THEIR own money! As a result of that we now have 26 peer-reviewed studies, available on 'Pub-med' for you to view ! (mind blowing!)

This is one if the many reasons I’m so passionate about sharing both the product & the business.

Now is the time to get involved from a business perspective (new car, need a holiday, a second income, a change of job, to up your retirement fund? etc etc).

From a health perspective, prevention is always better than waiting until you are sick ;)

Proposed Auckland Council Rates Increase

It is unbelievable for a mayor who can propose such a ridiculous idea amidst a pandemic which will most likely cause a global economic slowdown. New Zealand will not escape from the hit as part of the international economy. Auckland, the largest city of NZ, will be adversely impacted by the slowdown as well. Even the central government has provided financial assistance to those suffering from the hardship in the lockdown period, I wonder why the Auckland Council could proceed the rate rise in this unprecedented difficult time. Not even considering to help out local residents to go through this difficult time, our Council is trying to add financial burden to the local residents.

In the 4 weeks lockdown, all infrastructure construction activities have ceased. Mr Goff also said that Auckland Council was already shedding contracts and temporary staff. It is reasonably estimated that Auckland Council would spend much less in the current financial year. Based on this estimate, it has absolutely no reason to raise the rates. On the opposite, Auckland Council should decrease the rates in this financial year to help the property owners to weather through the anticipated economic slowdown.

I have emailed my request to the Councillors of Howick Ward, Sharon Stewart and Paul Young, but got no response (so disappointed without even receiving an acknowledgement as a matter of courtesy).

As the rate increase will affect all residents in Auckland, no matter you are property owners or tenants, I hope you could voice out your views on this issue by emailing to the elected representatives of your ward who have promised to act on our interest in the last election.
