TAKE THE 20 MINUTE HEALTH CHALLENGE
We have reached the age of enlightenment. Studies have shown that we are better educated, healthier and on the average live longer then those of just a generation ago. We are in the information age where all that there is to know is just a few Google searches away. (www.jujubefruit.com)
So why when we have the most diverse and plentiful food supply and are in the era of advanced medicines are so many people complaining about their health, about the lack of energy or their mental well being? It seems with all the advances in the quality of life, our hectic lifestyle, heavy workloads, the fast food and the environmental related pollution and diseases are having an affect on the quality of our life.

To combat the lack of proper nutrition, the environment and the hectic pace the dietary supplement market has grown. Between 40 and 48 percent of American adults are estimated to take supplements on a regular basis. For those who pride themselves as athletic, the figure is as high as 57 percent. According to Euromonitor, the American supplement market was worth $7.84 billion in 2004.
But the search for the holy grail of nutritional supplements has been our quest for decades. We have been looking for that supplement that is based on great science, has proven benefits, is all natural and of course where the taste is something that can actually be tolerated.
Well we know the “eureka!” moment that Sir Alexander Fleming must have had when he discovered Penicillin. For us it was the discovery of a new nutritional elixir developed by XELR8, Inc., the company that has brought us nutritional foods, vitamins and energy drinks that are used and endorsed by over 350 Olympic and Professional athletes.
The new health drink is called “BAZI,” a Chinese word that translates literally as “Eight Characters.” The name is based on the eight super fruits and berries that make up this drink. BAZI is a powerful, concentrated, antioxidant nutritional drink that gives you all the vitamin and minerals you need in a single, convenient, one-ounce shot. (www.buybazi.com)
SCIENCE
What grabbed our attention was the science behind this product. While XELR8 products have always been based on great research from over 250 universities and research labs around the world. This new drink is in a class by itself. Its principle fruit is the Jujube Fruit. No, this isn’t the confectionary candy that is found in movie theaters. The jujube fruit is a life-giving and restoring sweet treat few Westerners have ever had the pleasure of tasting. The real jujube fruit is the product of an Asian tree, Jujbe ziziphus.jube. It was first documented thousands of years ago in the first known Chinese manual of medicine. So rich in nutrients, high priests called it the “Fruit of Immortality.” The jujube can grow almost anywhere in the world. But the XELR8 group only harvest the fruit from the rich soils found in the beautiful coastal province of Shandong, in northeast China. (www.buybazi.com)
To enhance the properties of the health elixir, XELR8 has added sev
en other exotic fruits and berries that give the drink a healthy dose of 12 vitamins and 68 minerals. The drink contains:
Goji Berry
The Goji berry is derived from 18 amino acids, 21 trace minerals, and complex polysaccharides which have been shown to strengthen the immune system.
Mangosteen Fruit
The mangosteen fruit contains a specialized class of antioxidants called xanthones, which are highly biologically active. Their potent antioxidant capabilities help the body defend against stress and cellular destruction.
Acai Berry
The Acai Tree located in the Amazon Rainforest has berries that are loaded with antioxidants, anthocyanins, amino acids, omegas, fibers and protein, the Acai berry is one of the most complex and nutritious fruits in all the world.
Seabuckthorn Berry
The Seabuckthorn contains 190 bioactive components. It is a great source for Vitamin E, Vitamin C, Beta-carotene, unsaturated fatty acids, essential amino acids, and flavonoids.
Blueberry
The Blueberry is the most researched and documented fruit of all time. It is packed with antioxidant phytonutrients called anthocyanidins. Blueberries are one of the most potent neutralizers of damaging free radicals, which are produced by physical and mental stress. Blueberries are also scientifically linked to the cardiovascular and immune systems.
Pomegranate
The antioxidant found in pomegranate, polyphenols, has provided much science in regards to cardiovascular health, cancer, and even aging.
Raspberry
The raspberry is packed full of vitamins, antioxidants, and fiber. It is also high in Ellagic Acid, a phenolic compound that has become known as a potent anti-carcinogenic/anti-mutagenic compound. Raspberries are the crown jewel of phytochemicals and contain a synergistic balance of anthocyanins, salicylic acid, quercetin, and catechins.
PROVEN BENEFITS
Now we were not sold by ancient claims of magical properties of a jujube health tonic able to nourish the blood, liver and spleen, calm the mind, cleanse the body through detoxification, and treat fatigue and weakness. The fact the ancient Chinese herbalist Shennanog recorded these observations over 4,000 years ago is interesting, but what we are impressed with is today’s science.
XLER8, Inc. does not and cannot make any medical claims, but a simple Google search brought to light some very interesting scientific research being conducted in the United States, Europe and Asia. It is providing hard evidence for the health benefits long associated with the jujube fruit.
Jujube is one of the highest fruit sources of Vitamin C in the world—100 times more concentrated than apples, 20 times more than citrus fruits,
A Google search also showed that the Jujube fruit has the highest concentration of two molecules responsible for intercellular communication These are cGMP & cAMP and the jujube fruit has the highest concentration of anything -- plant or animal -- known to man.
The jujube fruit also has an abundance of an organic acid called Betulinic acid. Online, there are loads of data around betulinic acid's role in killing cancerous cells (apoptosis) and also in slowing the progression of HIV.
ANECDOTAL EVIDENCE
The testimonials from professional athletes and product testing groups are amazing. One of the amazing aspects of XELR8, Inc. is their ability to obtain endorsements from some of the outstanding professional and Olympic athletes (over 350).
Every individual who has tried the product in the pre-release testing could feel a calm surge of energy within 20 minutes of trying the product.
One athlete who has tried BAZI and has given it an outstanding endorsement is Curt Schilling the Boston Red Sox World Series MVP. Curt Schilling has said that:
"BAZI is really a breath of fresh air. In a day and age when companies make you believe you've got to take 30 different supplements to truly be healthy, knowing I can take a small drink of this and get immense benefits is truly a great thing. Supplements like BAZI are ways for me to keep that edge all older athletes are after." - Curt Schilling, World Series MVP
The XELR8 product review committee who had the opportunity to test the product on a pre-release basis had comments such as:” “The first 20 minutes, what I noticed was a clear focus”; “It’s like pouring liquid sunshine into your brain!”; “ability to focus and work productively, and ”surge of calm energy”. A number of the participants claimed health benefits ranging from allergy relief, clarity of vision, control of high blood pressure, diabetes, and even the cure for the common cold.
These broad range of benefits may be attributed to the concentrated vitamins and minerals derived from the eight fruits and berries or the intercellular communication molecules found in the jujube fruit.
TASTE
We have all experienced taking vitamins or nutritional supplements where you had to hold your nose and hope the product did not cause heartburn or indigestion after it was consumed. If the taste is not good, then the health and nutritional properties really do not matter for the average consumer will not stay with it. This however does not appear to be a problem for BAZI. Every individual who tested BAZI was astounded by its superb taste. In fact the test groups consensus was that the taste and the calm energy and clarity was so profound that they found the drink to be addictive. It was a challenge to walk past the refrigerator without taking a drink.
XELR8 recommends that you take one ounce up to three times a day to:
o Protect cellular health caused from stress and pollutants
o Strengthen the body’s ability to fight free radical damage and stress
o Provide the body with stable energy and stamina
o Accelerate the body’s immune system
We recommend that you purchase a bottle, try it for yourself and then make it a part of your health, nutrition and exercise regiment.
