Taking B Vitamins or any vitamin and mineral supplements for that matter, will just strain you digestive tract and kidneys resulting in bright yellow urine with a strong odour, indicating clearly that at least 90-96% is going straight into the sewerage system. B Vitamins are found in all unprocessed and uncooked carbohydrates in large quantities. Fresh fruit and sprouted grains are probably our best sources and following just the first 3 steps on the natural way, will supply you with more than enough B Vitamins, the way God intended us to have.

In fact when I look at the side effects of many types of medication, heart problems are often a side effect.

The cardiovascular system consists of the heart and blood vessels. Through this system, blood circulates throughout the body. All body organs and tissues need a supply of blood to receive nutrition and to remove waste products. A major factor in cardiovascular disease is lifestyle. A poor diet, lack of exercise, and smoking all contribute to making cardiovascular disease the biggest killer in Westernized cultures. Add to that a lifetime of daily caffeine consumption  and medication that actually promotes heart disease and it is no wonder heart disease is the number 1 killer in the west today.

Following the basic natural way steps as described in my books will go a long way to preventing heart disease and even reversing the condition.

In the last 5-6 years have seen many people see some dramatic results with the daily intake of barley grass juice in particular BarleyLife and a balanced flax blend like Aimega or Millbrook’s superior blend

And many have written to me to tell me how Aim Bear Paw Garlic has decreased their cholesterol levels, lowered their blood pressure and helped improve their heart condition. Many of you have read in my books, that garlic can cause water retention, destroy friendly bacteria resulting in bloating and gas. So I have investigated what Bear Paw garlic actually is and have included a summary of my findings. What does fascinate me is that wild alpine garlic (that that this product is made from) actually helps increase serotonin levels. So I would advise that even if you have a healthy heart, but drink caffeinated beverages, or eat foods containing caffeine like chocolate you would do well to take this product. If you are one of those who are not prepared to totally stop the caffeine habit, please try this and feed back to me.

I would love to have feedback for people who have tried this product for at least 6 weeks and let me know if they experience any improvements in panic attacks, anxiety etc.

What is AIM Bear Paw Garlic?

AIM Bear Paw Garlic™ is a unique form of garlic. It is not derived from Allium sativum, the species of garlic sold in supermarkets and used in garlic supplements. Rather, AIM Bear Paw Garlic™ comes from Allium ursinum, a wild species of garlic found in central Europe. Unlike A. sativum, A. ursinum has never been successfully cultivated. (Apparently, the eighth-century ruler Charlemagne attempted to cultivate the plant for medicinal purposes, but there is no record of his success.) A. ursinum is found in areas of damp woods and wooded ravines and flourishes in the hills and mountains of central Europe. Its name is derived from the claim that bears, after awakening from winter hibernation, consume wild garlic to regain strength (ursinum is Latin for “bear”). Although most of us think of the distinctive garlic bulb and cloves when considering garlic, the active substances in A. ursinum are found in its green leaves.

A. ursinum

Garlic has a long history as a healthful plant, having been used for medicinal purposes from as early as 3,000 B.C. Garlic is made up of sulfur compounds; amino acids; minerals, such as germanium, selenium, and zinc; and vitamins A, B, and C. Allicin, a sulfur-containing compound in garlic, is traditionally believed to be primarily responsible for most of the suggested benefits of garlic. Allicin is also responsible for garlic’s unique odor. A.

 However, A. ursinum has a number of advantages over A. sativum. A. ursinum contains allicin and its related forms, as well as more ajoene (a degraded form of allicin) and its related forms, more y-glutamyl peptides (GLUT), and more than 20 times as much adenosine. Current opinion states that the y-glutamyl peptides and ajoene result in an increase in the difference across the membrane of the vascular smooth muscle. This, in turn, results in a widening of blood vessels, which maintains healthy blood pressure. y-glutamyl peptides have also been demonstrated to inhibit the actions of angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE), an enzyme released from the kidneys that regulates blood pressure.

Adenosine helps increase blood vessel width and can also reduce platelet aggregation (blood stickiness). It also acts as a muscle relaxant and as a protectant against poisons, such as caffeine.

A.    ursinum is also odourless; although, when you first open AIM Bear Paw Garlic™, the garlic odor is unmistakable. However, upon digestion the garlic odor is not as noticeable. This is because the leaves of A. ursinum contain substantial amounts of chlorophyll, which binds nitrogen compounds during digestion and thus prevents the development of the smell associated with the breakdown products of garlic.

 A. ursinum has three advantages over this domesticated garlic: 1) It has more of the active substances, especially adenosine which is almost 20 times higher that domestic garlic; 2) It has active substances not found in cultivated garlic, or found only when large quantities are taken; 3) It is odorless.

What do European publications have to say about A. ursinum?

“Accordingly Allium ursinum contains much more ajoene and an about twenty-fold higher content of adenosine than its 'cultivated cousin'. Just these substances are the ones to which, according to recent studies, an essential part of the known allium effects such as reduction of cholesterine, inhibition of thrombocyte-aggregation, drop in blood pressure, improvement of blood-rheology and fibrinolysis are attributed.”

Therapiewoch (November 1990)

“… Allium ursinum is superior to Allium sativum, since the latter … has been overcultivated through several thousand years to a one-sided form.”

Allgemeine Homöopathische Zeitung 211 (1966)

“It is known of Allium ursinum that it possesses cholesterol and blood pressure regulating characteristics.”

Natur Heilpraxis mit Naturmedizin (November 1995)

“The water and ethanol extracts of wild garlic were able to reduce the intensity of generated radicals. Thus, it can be assumed that … Allium ursinum has significant antioxidant properties.” Török, et al. Central Research Laboratory, Pécs, Hungary

Process

A. ursinum is hand-picked in the spring during a one week-period. It is harvested in the alpine regions of central Europe, in particular Switzerland. Because it is wild and cannot be cultivated, only the leaves are cut; the bulb remains in the earth to ensure future supply. Once the leaves are harvested, they are processed quickly. They are cleaned, washed, dried, and milled under low temperatures. During this processing, adenosine levels are monitored to guarantee at least 1,100 mg/kg.

Does this mean I am recommending that you just drink coffee and take some pills? No, but I recognise that not everyone will give up tea and coffee and rather than take medication for anxiety and stress, panic attacks and heart palpitations. You would do better to take some natural wild garlic, which will prevent you going down the very slippery road of taking medication for the side effects of other medication.
