We are often asked these questions:

• Why is it important to use Ai/E10 EVERY DAY?
• After the end of cold and flu season, why should I use Ai/E10?
• If I feel OK, why should I use Ai/E10?

These are really good questions and there are really important reasons to take Ai/E10 EVERY DAY all year long. Let's look more closely at the reasons.

The immune system carries out millions of actions EVERY DAY with no conscious instruction from us to do so and operates with a set of three imperatives relative to foreign invaders:

1. Recognize them.
2. Respond to their presence.
3. Remember how to respond to them effectively.

There are five factors that have been shown to interfere with the immune system's ability to execute its duties relative to the imperatives:

1. Stress.
2. Poor nutrition.
3. Toxins.
4. Infection.
5. Trauma.

Many people are surprised by the five factors and will ask, "Where is "cold and flu season" on the list"?

Cold and flu season is surely capable of putting additional stress on our immune function, but it is only one stress and probably is not the greatest for any of us. We do not need to remind anyone how much stress we all experience in our EVERYDAY lives.

These factors restrict immune system communication and reduce the immune system's effectiveness. This reduction in communication is represented physically in the body by a reduction in the number, variability and viability of immune communication cells available to carry out the imperatives.

Ai/E10 was designed to support your immune system as it carries out these millions of actions EVERY DAY, all year, by providing an orally absorbable source for replacement of relevant immune communication molecules that have been lost to stress, poor nutrition, toxins, infection and trauma. Ai/E10 has been produced in the United States from a private herd of dairy cows specially bred and maintained for this purpose since 1994.

Clinical experience has shown that the use of Ai/E10 begins to provide benefits immediately, but the full benefits are not achieved until after 30 to 45 days of continual use in most people. Since the majority of dietary supplements we take EVERY DAY, as well as the nutrients we absorb from food, are associated directly or indirectly with immune function, keeping immune communication working well all year makes our other supplementation more effective and allows us an opportunity to build immune capability and capacity to help support us when additional stress or other factors present themselves.

Using a monthly automatic shipment program assures you that Ai/E10 will be there for you and your family for EVERY DAY use, bringing the full benefit of its immune supporting capability so vital for a healthy lifestyle all year long.

San Francisco -- If doctors are ever going to find a way to attack and even cure Alzheimer's disease, they first need to know how to diagnose it -- ideally years, maybe even decades, before patients are symptomatic and their brain has been irreparably damaged.

That's why researchers around the country are intrigued by several promising new studies that highlight techniques for identifying Alzheimer's in the body long before people show the classic signs of memory loss and confusion.

A study that was released in August to much excitement among researchers suggested that a spinal fluid test could be very effective in identifying abnormal levels of amyloid, a protein that forms plaque buildups in the brains of people with Alzheimer's.

In the Bay Area, researchers at the University of California at San Francisco and Stanford are studying drugs that would serve as biomarkers in the body, attaching themselves to proteins like amyloid and letting doctors find those proteins more easily using imaging tests.

"It's exciting that we will likely soon have new tools that will allow us to detect Alzheimer's changes very early, even in people who are cognitively normal," said Dr. Adam Boxer , director of the Alzheimer's disease and frontotemporal dementia clinical trials program at UCSF's Memory and Aging Center. "If there were a treatment that could remove amyloid from the brain, then it would really be an exciting and powerful combination."

People are currently tested for Alzheimer's using a fairly lengthy, somewhat subjective process that starts with simple memory tests and interviews with patients and their family about problems they may be having from day to day. Those tests are accompanied by a physical examination, more thorough cognitive testing, and blood analysis and a brain-imaging scan.

The process is more about ruling out other diseases with similar symptoms -- such as a stroke or a benign brain tumor -- that may be easily treated. After the testing is over, doctors can reliably diagnose Alzheimer's with about 90 percent accuracy, but it can only be confirmed after death, when brain tissue can be studied under a microscope.

For patients and the doctors treating them, it's not necessarily important to definitively diagnose Alzheimer's because for now there's no cure for the disease. But for researchers, it's essential to be able to identify test subjects who have been diagnosed with Alzheimer's so that they can focus on potential treatments.

Researchers hope that if doctors can find abnormal buildup of proteins before people become symptomatic, it may be easier to find effective treatments. Most studies of potential drug treatments for Alzheimer's have had disappointing results.

"Many (researchers) believe these studies may have failed because we started treating people too late," Boxer said. "The majority of people in studies have full-blown Alzheimer's disease, and it's a tall order to get treatments to work in these people.

It's hoped that by developing biomarkers, we could find it much earlier."

Most research into early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease is centered around two proteins: amyloid beta, which is distinctive for the way it clumps up in the brain like plaque, and tau, which forms tangled strands in the brain when neurons die. Buildup of these proteins is common in the brains of deceased people who had Alzheimer's.

At Stanford, a team of researchers is participating in a national study of the drug florbetaben, which would act as a marker for amyloid and allow doctors to find the protein using certain imaging techniques. UCSF researchers, meanwhile, are looking for similar drugs that might be used a biomarkers for the tau protein.

The spinal fluid test, which was studied primarily at the University of Pennsylvania, involves performing a spinal tap on patients to look for signs of both proteins.

Dr. Marci Teresi , clinical lead of the Kaiser Permanente Santa Clara Memory Clinic, said doctors are enthusiastic about the current research, but she doesn't expect such testing to be made widely available outside of research studies any time soon.

"It's mostly useful for investigational purposes, for finding people who want to participate in research studies," Teresi said.

"I don't think it's as practical for the large number of patients that are out there seeing their regular doctors."

In other words, patients with no Alzheimer's symptoms shouldn't start asking their doctors for advanced imaging tests any time soon. In fact, early testing could do more harm than good, some doctors say, if it causes patients anxiety and depression before they're showing signs of Alzheimer's. Some people with protein buildup in their brains never get Alzheimer's at all.

Still, there are advantages to screening older people who may be showing the first small signs of illness, said Dr. Catherine Madison , medical director of California Pacific Medical Center's Memory Clinic.

Several drugs can make life for patients more comfortable and slow down some of the worst effects of the disease, especially if the treatment is started early. Patients can also benefit from therapy and anti-depressants.

"There's no magic cure out there. Even if I could tell you that you were going to get dementia, would you want me to?" Madison said. "But we have medications that can help. We can slow the course of this and make it a whole lot better for patients and families."

Bentonite Clay: Safe Protection from Environmental Toxins

by Cheryl McCoy, citizen journalist

(NaturalNews) During the past few months, there has been an outbreak of reports of chemicals, pharmaceuticals, pesticides and toxins being found in our water supply, our food, our air, our soil....just about everything we come in contact with it seems. But, armed with the proper information, there`s no reason to live in a state of fear. Of course, measures must be taken to remove these harmful substances from our eco-system, but until that dream becomes a reality, you can protect yourself and your loved ones with calcium Bentonite clay. Used both externally and internally, calcium Bentonite clay safely removes toxins from your system.

What are we up against?

Here are just a few samples of the reports that have surfaced recently:

The CDC announced that traces of a chemical used in rocket fuel were found in samples of powdered baby formula, and could exceed what`s considered a safe dose for adults if mixed with water also contaminated with the ingredient. The study by scientists at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention looked for the chemical, perchlorate, in different brands of powdered baby formula. The chemical has turned up in several cities` drinking water supplies.

Natural News recently reported on a study conducted by Baylor University researcher Bryan Brooks, and published in Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, that examined fish caught near Phoenix, Dallas, Chicago, Philadelphia and Orlando, testing them for residues of pharmaceuticals. The results showed that these fish are contaminated with a chemical cocktail of seven different prescription medications, including cholesterol drugs, blood pressure drugs, allergy drugs and psychiatric medications used to treat bipolar disorder and depression, and two different chemicals used as artificial fragrance in soaps.

USA Today recently reported on a new study finding that young children have high levels of chemical fire retardants in their blood. The report stated, "Toddlers and preschoolers had levels of the chemicals that were on average three times higher than their mothers`, according to a study of 20 families by the Environmental Working Group, which has campaigned against the chemicals for several years. The chemicals, called polybrominated diphenyl ethers, or PBDEs, are widely used in televisions, remote controls, computers, mattresses and other products. Scientists are concerned that the chemicals cause brain damage in animals and may cause hyperactivity in children, says Jimmy Roberts, a member of the American Academy of Pediatrics` committee on environmental health. Doctors also are concerned that the chemicals affect the reproductive organs and hormone systems."

These same chemicals are showing up in high amounts in the breast milk of American mothers. Two studies found that all of the women tested were contaminated with polybrominated diphenyl ethers. Their PBDE levels were the highest in the world: 10 to 20 times higher than those in Europe , where the chemicals are being phased out.

Last year, an article in the Washington Post warned that trace amounts of 6 popular prescription drugs had been found in the area`s drinking water, and that these harmful substances could not be filtered out by most treatment systems. This was not an isolated incident. According to the article, "Pharmaceuticals, along with trace amounts of caffeine, were found in the drinking water supplies of 24 of 28 metropolitan areas tested." Although experts agree that aquatic life are most at risk from exposure to the drugs in rivers and streams, researchers are concerned about what they don`t know about human health effects.

Bottled water is evidently not the answer. Natural News recently reported that bottled water from across the country contained a wide variety of toxic substances, according to laboratory tests conducted by the Environmental Working Group (EWG). The study authors wrote that the purity of bottle water cannot be trusted. Researchers conducted comprehensive tests at the renowned University of Iowa Hygienic Laboratory on 10 leading bottled water brands, purchased from retailers in nine states and the District of Columbia (D.C.). A total of 38 toxic pollutants were detected altogether, with each brand containing an average of eight. Chemicals detected included fluoride, byproducts of chlorine-based disinfection, caffeine, pharmaceutical drugs, fertilizer residue, plasticizers, solvents, fuel propellants, arsenic, other minerals and heavy metals, and radioactive isotopes. Four brands also contained bacteria.

There is a safe and easy way to protect yourself from these horrifying contaminants - calcium bentonite clay. According to Michel Abeshera, author of The Healing Clay, "Clay has a remarkable resistance to chemical agents.... [A]s a bacteria-destroying agent it can render contaminated water innocuous."

How does calcium Bentonite clay work?

Bentonite clay carries a uniquely strong negative ionic charge which causes it to `magnetically` attract any substance with a positive ionic charge (i.e., bacteria, toxins, metals, etc.). These substances are both adsorbed (sticking to the outside like Velcro) and absorbed (drawn inside) by the clay molecules. Your body doesn`t digest clay, so the clay passes through your system, collecting the toxins, and removing them as the clay is eliminated. It`s like a little internal vacuum cleaner. In his book The Clay Cure, Ran Knishinsky states it this way:

"The clay`s immediate action upon the body is directly on the digestive channel. This involves the clay actually binding with the toxic substances and removing them from the body with the stool. It performs this job with every kind of toxin, including those from the environment, such as heavy metals, and those that occur naturally as by-products of the body`s own health processes, such as metabolic toxins. The clay and the adsorbed toxins are both eliminated together; this keeps the toxins from being reabsorbed into the bloodstream."

So while it currently may be impossible to avoid these contaminants, using calcium Bentonite clay can remove them from our system.

How do we use the calcium Bentonite clay?

In this day and age, there`s virtually no way to isolate yourself from the toxins that surround us. In our air, in our food, in the ground beneath our feet, and in our water, the contaminants abound. However, with calcium Bentonite clay, you can keep yourself healthy and vibrant.

Perry Arledge, author of Living Clay: Nature`s Own Miracle Cure, suggests the following protocol to keep yourself internally cleansed:  

Clay must be taken internally. Take two ounces of liquefied clay twice a day made with 1 part dry powder calcium Bentonite clay to 8 parts water for 14 days. After that, you can scale back to 1 ounce a day.

Clay baths, taken twice a week, are also helpful. Clay baths help keep your body cleansed by pulling toxins through the pores. To prepare a clay bath, scatter about 2 cups of Bentonite clay powder into the bath water as it`s running, and use your hands to swish away any lumps that might form. A clay bath should last ideally between 15-20 minutes. Submerge as much of your body as possible during the bath. The more clay that is used in the therapy, the more powerful the response.

How do we choose the right clay?

There are many companies selling clay these days, but you need to know this: Not all clays are created equal! Some clays should never be used externally, let alone internally. You must do your due diligence and make certain that you are using a high quality, safe, healing clay. According to an article published in Natural News, the following standards should be followed when choosing a good quality detoxing clay:

• A natural calcium Bentonite clay pure and free of contaminants.
• A pH of 8.7 or above.
• From a company that provides a mineral analysis sheet.
• From a company that provides a certified laboratory microbial test.
• A Montmorillonite-Smectite Clay that Absorbs and Adsorb.
• So pure it is odorless and tasteless.
• It is an all natural vs. processed clay.
• Has professional packaging (no Ziploc bags or hand-written labels) with labels showing directions and ingredients.
• A non-gritty clay
• From a company that gives you direct contact information - a phone number, physical address and an e-mail address.
• From a company available to answer questions about their clay.
• From a reliable company that has been in business for several years.
• A clay that does not stain material.
