TO OUR CANADIAN ASSOCIATES AND CUSTOMERS: UPDATE ON EMAIL CONFIRMATIONS/À NOS ASSOCIÉS ET CLIENTS CANADIENS


To our Canadian Associates and Customers,
Thank you for your patience. In order to best accommodate all Canada service areas, we recently partnered with a different shipping company in Pennsylvania. We have received from Associates and customers phone calls and emails advising us that there have been some interruptions in services that have caused some confusion and understandable frustration.
Please be aware that Max knows about these glitches and that while ordered items have been shipping in a timely manner, emails containing order confirmations and shipping notices are not being generated. We are working diligently to synchronize our data base with our shipping company so that order confirmations and shipping notifications are sent and received in a timely manner.
In our effort to provide the most efficient and convenient service possible, additional time is required to coordinate all processes to ensure every system works smoothly with the new shipping company. We anticipate these be resolved shortly. When they are, order confirmations and shipping notifications will resume promptly.
We value your support and thank you for your continued patience. We apologize for the inconvenience this has caused. Again, the issues will be corrected soon and we will advise once these are properly in effect.
Best Regards,
Max Customer Care North America
We Are Max!

À nos associés et clients canadiens,
Merci pour votre patience. Afin d’accommoder au mieux toutes les zones de service du Canada, nous avons récemment fait équipe avec une autre compagnie de transport, basée en Pennsylvanie. Nous avons reçu de la part d’associés et de clients des appels téléphoniques et des courriels nous informant qu’il y a eu des interruptions dans le service qui ont causé une certaine confusion et une frustration bien compréhensible.
Veuillez garder à l’esprit s’il vous plaît que, si les articles commandés ont bien été expédiés dans les temps, les courriels contenant les confirmations de commande et les avis d’expédition, eux, n’ont pu être générés normalement, et que Max est bien au courant de ces problèmes. Nous sommes en train de travailler avec diligence pour synchroniser notre base de données avec celle de notre compagnie de transport afin que les confirmations d’ordre et les notifications d’expédition soient envoyées et reçues dans les temps.
Dans nos efforts pour fournir le service le plus efficace et le plus pratique possible, nous sommes parfois obligés de prendre un temps supplémentaire pour coordonner tous les processus afin de nous assurer que chaque système fonctionne sans à-coups avec ceux de la nouvelle compagnie. Nous prévoyons que ces problèmes seront résolus sous peu. Lorsqu’ils le seront, les confirmations de commande et les notifications d’expédition reprendront rapidement.
Nous apprécions votre soutien et vous remercions pour votre patience. Nous nous excusons pour les inconvénients que cette situation a pu vous causer. Encore une fois, ces problèmes seront corrigés bientôt et nous vous en aviserons aussitôt que tout sera rentré dans l’ordre.
Meilleures salutations.

The Power of Glutathione

WHAT IS GLUTATHIONE?



Glutathione is produced naturally in the liver. It is made up of three amino acids, and it is vital for cellular metabolism. It protects against oxidative stress caused by free radicals, is required for the immune system to function properly, and is a potent detoxifier.

The importance of glutathione has been validated by over 92,000 scientific articles, more than twice the amount that has ever been published about vitamin C. In fact, nutrition experts believe that it is just as necessary for our health as oxygen, food and water.

Glutathione is the body’s most powerful and important antioxidants, present in each and every cell in the body. It plays a pivotal role in detoxifying our cells, removing heavy metals, toxins and free radicals. All of which can damage our cells and significantly damage the quality of our cells, including skin cells.

Benefits:

1. Increase the energy

2. Slows down ageing process

3.  Reduces muscle and joint discomfort

4.  Strengthens immune system

5. Detoxifies the liver and cells

6. Improves mental focus and clarity

7. Improves quality of sleep

8. Reduces the effects of stress

9. Improves the skin

10. Athletic performance and recovery

WHAT DOES GLUTATHIONE DO IN OUR BODIES?

Antioxidant – GSH is the body’s master Antioxidant, our bodies depend on GSH for the removal of toxins and GSH is at the heart of all immune functions. Other antioxidants in our body depend on GSH to function properly.

Detoxification – GSH detoxifies a large number of pollutants by binding to carcinogens, heavy metals, herbicides, pesticides and radiation by forming a soluble compound with the toxin that can then be excreted through the urine or bile.

Immune system – Healthy growth and activity of immune cells depends on the availability of GSH. The protective activity of GSH is two-fold – it enhances the activity of immune cells and also functions as an antioxidant within them.

ADVERTISEMENT


Increased Energy – Our energy levels are a result of many factors – everything from the biochemical reactions taking place within our cells, to muscle function and even your sense of well-being. GSH enables the mitochondria of a cell to remain fully charged, enhancing muscle strength and endurance. Clinical trials have shown that lowering GSH in the mitochondria results in cell death.

Repair – Our body is constantly under attack from free radicals, some from external sources and some generated in our own body. Free radicals attack the nearest stable molecule, “stealing” its electron. A molecule that loses an electron then becomes a free radical itself and attacks the next nearest stable molecule, this begins a chain reaction. Once the reaction is started it can cascade through hundreds of molecules. As this occurs over and over again the cell eventually dies or mutates. Sometimes the mutated cell mutates to a point that we know as cancer. GSH performs a vital role in repairing the damaged DNA by replacing the missing electron. Normal to elevated GSH keeps the repair of our cells at a maximum and reduces the number of cell mutations that would occur otherwise.

Lightens Skin – By supplementing with a high quality Glutathione supplement, namely one containing Acetyl Glutathione, you can not only improve your complexion, but improve the quality and health of your skin. Supplementing with a Glutathione pill or injectable can help to improve the health of every cell in the body, particularly apparent in the skin, hair and nails. Giving people a radiant glow which is caused by healthy cells and reduced toxicity in the body.

Her parents enable her life-threatening food addiction by giving her ‘whatever’ she wants to eat


Morbidly obese woman who weighs 650LBS and is barely able to stand says her parents enable her life-threatening food addiction by giving her ‘whatever’ she wants to eat.

  • Nikki Webster, 33, is one of 12 people documenting their weight loss stories on the upcoming season of the TLC reality series My 600lb Life. 
  • The fourth season of the show premieres on January 6 Ashley Bratcher, a 26-year-old mother, who weighs 725lbs, and relies on her five-year-old son to take care of her, also appears on the show
  • Meanwhile, Sean Milliken weighs 900lbs after he turned to food for comfort after his parents’ traumatic divorce

By ERICA TEMPESTA FOR DAILYMAIL.COM 

A 650lb woman struggling with a life-threatening food addiction is among the 12 morbidly obese people who are documenting their heart wrenching battles to lose weight on the fourth season of TLC reality series My 600lb Life. The latest season of the emotional show kicks off on January 6 with Nikki Webster, a 33-year-old food addict who is unable stop herself from binging – even though she fears it may cost her her life. ‘I’ve done this to myself. Food has always been an addiction for me. It is killing me,’ she tearfully explains in a new preview clip.

‘When I start my day, I can’t wait to start eating,’ she says. ‘My mom or dad will make me a plate and send it up to me so I don’t have to go downstairs until breakfast.’

In the clip, Nikki’s father can be seen preparing a plate filled with three sugary donuts before he sends it up on a stair lift.

And Nikki admits that her parents help fuel her addiction.


Difficult life: Nikki has to sit down on her bed in order to dry off after taking a shower as her weight prohibits her mobility.


Constant struggle: Nikki can be seen putting lotion in the crevices of her folds to keep her skin from chaffing
‘My mom and dad cook and they get me whatever I want to eat,’ she reveals.

Like the seasons before, each hour-long episode of My 600 lb Life will tell the story of one individual who travels to Houston, Texas, to meet weight loss expert Dr Younan Nowzaradan in the desperate hope of undergoing life-saving gastric bypass surgery.

In upcoming episodes, viewers will also meet Ashley Bratcher, 26-year-old mother, who weighs 725 lbs, and relies on her five-year-old son to take care of her,

Despite his young age, the boy brings her food and helps with daily chores that need to be done around the house.


Relying on others: Nikki’s father can be seen sending donuts to Nikki on stair lift so she doesn’t have to leave the second floor of her house until breakfast.




Unable to stop: Nikki said she thinks about food as soon as she wakes up and can’t wait to eat

Meanwhile, Sean Milliken’s emotional eating has left him with a 900 lb frame that prevents him being able to stand longer than 30 seconds.

According to Sean, his weight started to spiral out of control when he turned to food for comfort after he was left traumatized by his parents divorce.

Last season, viewers met Marla McCants, a 43-year-old woman from Nashville, Tennessee, who weighed 800lbs.

A year after she started her weight loss journey on the reality series, she was able to stand on a scale for the first time in five years, clocking in at 534 lbs.

Max Research & Development Team


Max's commitment to bring the benefits of Glutathione enhancement to the world starts with our scientific research led by world-renowned medicinal chemist, Dr. Herb Nagasawa and his team.

Dr. Herbert Nagasawa

Dr. Nagasawa, The Father of RiboCeine™

Dr. Nagasawa received his B.S. degree in chemistry from
Western Reserve University (now, Case-Western Reserve) in Cleveland, Ohio, and a Ph.D. degree in organic chemistry from the University of Minnesota. Subsequently, he spent two years as a Post-doctoral Fellow in biochemistry at the University of Minnesota before joining the research staff of the V.A. Medical Center in Minneapolis as a Senior Chemist. He was appointed Assistant Professor of Medicinal Chemistry at the University of Minnesota in 1959, and was named Principal Scientist of the VAMC in 1961. He was promoted in 1976 to Senior Research Career Scientist, a nationwide VA title reserved for the VA's top scientists, and was promoted in 1963 to Associate Professor of Medicinal Chemistry and to Professor in 1973.

Scott Nagasawa

Scott Nagasawa, Pharm.D., has a successful history as Senior V.P. of Professional Services for a national pharmacy provider and later, was co-owner of regional home infusion pharmacy. Prior to joining Max, he was the Chief Technical Officer for the startup company, Cellgevity, founded by himself, his brother Stuart Nagasawa, M.D., Scott Momii and Dr. Herbert Nagasawa. Together they developed the breakthrough product that is now Max's premiere supplement. Scott received his Doctor of Pharmacy degree from the University of Southern California (USC). As Director of Pharmaceutical Services for a large teaching hospital in Los Angeles, California, he held the positions of Clinical Instructor of Pharmacy Practice and Adjunct Assistant Professor of Pharmacy Practice at USC.

Scott Momii

Scott graduated with a B.A. degree from San Jose State University, received an M.B.A. from Boston University, and completed a summer business program at Sophia University, Tokyo, Japan. Scott has served as both General Manager of a research, development and manufacturing company for specialty chemicals, and as Director of Operations for a biotechnology company that developed vaccines and cancer therapeutics. His responsibilities included manufacturing and quality control, overseeing and implementation of sales and marketing programs, as well as customer service and accounting.

RiboCeine™


Scientists and medical doctors have known for decades that glutathione, which is produced by the body itself, is the primary protector and detoxifier of the cell. However, under oxidative stress conditions, the glutathione levels become depleted. Also, from near the age of forty, the body’s ability to produce glutathione decreases gradually, then more rapidly at older age. For years, medical scientists have looked for ways to effectively raise the levels of glutathione. At one time, N-acetylcysteine (NAC) was the only supplement available to enhance the body’s supply of cysteine to enable the production of glutathione. However, Dr. Herbert T. Nagasawa was able to develop a revolutionary molecule known as RiboCeine that effectively delivers cysteine to the cell to support the natural production of glutathione--for which Max International was awarded a U.S. Patent.





Scientifically Proven and Patented Technology





RiboCeine is a unique molecule that combines ribose and cysteine, nutrients that occur naturally in our bodies. RiboCeine once ingested will be absorbed, enters the bloodstream and delivers cysteine and ribose to the cells, supporting glutathione production as well as providing ribose, an integral part of ATP, our cells’ natural fuel and source of energy. RiboCeine significantly outperformed other means of glutathione enhancement against which it has been tested. It has been the subject of twenty- two scientific studies funded by the National Institutes of Health or other scientific funding agencies and published in peer-reviewed journals.









Max Products Support Glutathione Enhancement

Glutathione


Every day our bodies are challenged by stress, poor diet, lack of sleep and physical exertion. These issues can negatively affect our health and wellness. To help combat these effects, our bodies produce a molecule called glutathione (GSH)

Glutathione is Fundamental to Our Physical Well-being

Glutathione is the primary protector of our cells. It recycles and helps restore other anti-oxidants, earning it the title of Master Antioxidant. It is the first line of defense against our cells’ most violent attackers, namely free radicals, chemical toxins, radiation and heavy metals that enter our bodies through the environment and the foods and liquids we consume. As the subject of over 100,000 peer-reviewed studies cited in PubMed.com, the importance of glutathione cannot be understated.

Our Glutathione Levels are Decreasing. Unfortunately, our glutathione levels are depleted as we age. The older we get, the harder it is to maintain optimum glutathione levels. This means our cells don’t work as well and our overall health and wellness pay the price.


















Restore Your Body’s Glutathione Production by Supplementation
Our bodies don’t have to fight on their own. Certain vitamins and nutrients have been shown to assist in glutathione function and production. The key is finding ways to effectively support our bodies’ glutathione levels. Unfortunately, we can’t just take glutathione; we need to find ways to help our bodies produce it naturally. Max’s proprietary RiboCeine™ technology is the solution for effective supplementation for optimal glutathione production.

Sound Science Provides Breakthrough Products
