Truehope Conference Call This Thursday
We received a tremendous amount of positive feedback from our first ever Truehope conference call with co-founders Anthony Stephan and David Hardy. As a result, for this month's conference call on Thursday July 6, we have opened up an additional 50 spaces. Follow the link below to RSVP today. An email will be sent to you with instructions on how to listen in.

Tony and David will be discussing the issue of Protracted Withdrawal - what it is and how to best manage it through the Truehope Program. They will also touch on the issue of "hypervitaminosis". Is this even a real condition? If so, what does it mean for EMPowerplus users?
We encourage you to RSVP now if you would like to listen in. Don't miss this opportunity to participate on the call! (Please RSVP using the link above as email reservations through feedback@truehope.com will no longer be accepted.)
Allergies - Is there something natural that can help?
This time of year is allergy primetime. Many Truehope Participants start using various antihistamine products to deal with itchy eyes, watery eyes, fatigue, headache and worse. The problem is that many allergy products can cause a myriad of adverse side effects including dizziness, tinnitus, blurred vision, euphoria, clumsiness, anxiety, insomnia, tremor, nausea, vomiting, constipation, diarrhea, dry mouth, dry cough, urinary retention, palpitations, hypotension, hallucination and possibly even psychosis. You may even feel that your primary symptoms of illness are returning when in fact you may just be feeling the side effects from the allergy medication.
So what can be done to deal with allergies naturally? Some people have experienced significant relief from taking grape seed extract, a powerful antioxidant. And grape seed extract won't interfere with EMPowerplus. For more information on grape seed extract visit www.nutrasanus.com/grapeseed.html.
Dr. Estelle Toby Goldstein, M.D., an EMPowerplus user and allergy sufferer, wrote to us with the following: "I discovered quercetin for myself a few years ago, when trying to deal with my own troublesome seasonal allergies. Pollens caused sneezing, watery eyes, runny nose every time I was anywhere near flowers, and I love flowers. All regular antihistamines were just too sedating for me.
"Quercetin is a bioflavonoid; it occurs naturally in oranges. In
laboratory testing, it is a very strong mast cell inhibitor; that means, it stops the mast (histamine secreting) cells from secreting histamine in the first place. It is available over the counter, which is a very good thing since I cannot possibly imagine how someone could eat enough oranges to get its positive effects. The usual effective dose is about 500mg twice daily, although some folks need a bit more. It is not only effective, but can be taken with vitamins, including EMPowerplus without any kind of an interaction or toxicity problem as far as I know."

Truehope BMD™ replaces Mira-Cal
We are phasing out the sale of Truehope Mira-Cal and replacing it with Truehope BMD™. Truehope BMD™ is a precise formulation of highly bioavailable forms of the known essential nutrients necessary for proper bone metabolism. These nutrients are all in correct balance with vitamins C and D present for proper absorption. Our unique ingredient processing results in tablets that rapidly break down for quick absorption and assimilation into bone.
According to the US Department of Agriculture, 73% of the US population is not
meeting the dietary reference intake for calcium on a daily basis. Equivalent figures for magnesium and phosphorus are 68% and 22% respectively. It seems that a solution to this problem would be to simply make up the deficiencies.
However, attempting to correct dietary deficiencies can be surprisingly difficult. For example, animals in a low bone density condition, given only calcium, or even calcium and magnesium, will actually be made worse due to the resulting nutrient imbalance. Only a complete and properly balanced supplement will resolve the problem.
Such knowledge led to the development of this unique and powerful BONE MINERAL DENSIFIER. Each properly proportioned ingredient in Truehope BMD™ was specifically selected for its essential role in restoring bone density.
Truehope BMD™ is available in 300 tablet bottles for $39.98. Order online at www.myTruehope.net.
