The life extension Foundation, an organization founded in 1980 that reports on the latest advances in life extension science, was first on the block to introduce a number of natural therapies to the public, including CoQIO and melatonin. In 1997, the foundation announced that SAMe "promises to be the most potent, multipurpose, anti-aging, anti-disease therapy we have ever introduced." Powerful words.
Has the prediction held up?
In a word, yes. The life extension Foundation was on the money with this one. |

Rather than giving in to the tyranny of the FDA, Bill Faloon and the life extension Foundation chose to fight for their First Amendment rights. As explained by Saul Kent of the life extension Foundation at www.LEF.org:
Everyone we consulted, including attorneys who were FDA "experts", told us we had to submit to the FDA's authority to have any chance of surviving. We ignored all this advice and instead decided to wage all-out war against the FDA. We did this knowing that we would not only risk our livelihood, but our personal freedom as well

Whole Grains
Just because a bread, cereal, or pasta product is brown in color, don't assume that it is a whole-grain product. Check the ingredient list for the words "whole grain" or "whole wheat" to decide if they are made from a whole grain. Some foods are made from a mixture of whole and refined grains.
Some grain products contain significant amounts of bran. |

To further terrorize the life extension Foundation and its founders, the FDA, with the help of various corrupt law enforcement bodies, filed 56 criminal charges against Foundation officers Saul Kent and William Faloon. After an 11-year reign of terror in which the FDA spent millions of taxpayer dollars attempting to prosecute them, Kent and Faloon prevailed. In November, 1995, Federal Judge Daniel Hurley dismissed 55 of the 56 charges, and in February, 1996, the final charge was dismissed.
And thus ended the FDA's campaign of terror against the life extension Foundation. |
| In 1994, the life extension Foundation established the FDA Holocaust Museum to document the decades-long reign of terror the FDA has perpetrated against the American people.

When we had this museum, we actually changed the name of the life extension Foundation to the FDA Holocaust Museum. We had a gigantic neon sign on the front of our building proclaiming it the FDA Holocaust Museum. We did this because we knew that airplanes landing at Fort Lauderdale International Airport could see this sign from the air. It really provoked the enemy, and we started a radio show called "Life Extension Breakthroughs." We alerted the prosecutor to make sure that she tuned in. |

In a world without surgery, we assume there would be some considerable loss of life, or loss of life extension, or increased morbidity. Most of us know someone whose life was saved by a surgeon, anecdotal evidence to be sure, but data which cannot be ignored. And what of those, perhaps ones dear to us, who have received an organ transplant which improved the quality and quantity of their lives? What about emergency surgery? Were a loved one battered in an automobile wreck, we would not question the need for immediate surgery. Such surgery is the subject of the following chapter. |

Vitamin C: Another important component for full post-operative recovery is vitamin C. According to the Australasian College of Nutritional and Environmental Medicine, levels of this vital compound actually drop in burn victims, post-op patients, and other victims of physical trauma. The minimum required intake of vitamin C to maintain healthy bodily function is about 300mg to 1g per day following surgery or other procedures. |

And thus ended the FDA's campaign of terror against the life extension Foundation. It was the first time in 88 years that the FDA had been forced to give up its prosecution efforts and throw in the towel.
As Saul Kent says, "The FDA's dismissal of the charges against me (and Bill Faloon) is an unprecedented victory against FDA tyranny that goes far beyond winning in court. The FDA's historic defeat is a victory for everyone who cherishes freedom in healthcare. |

The life extension Foundation: One of the oldest and most reliable organizations dedicated to nutritional medicine in the country. The members have been in the forefront of the movement to bring quality supplements and alternative medical protocols to the public for more than twenty-five years. They publish an excellent magazine called life extension, which is free with membership. They were the first to bring a number of now familiar supplements—such as Policosanol for lowering cholesterol and CLA for its fat- and cancer-lighting properties—to the marketplace. |

I have been a consultant to the dietary supplement industry on legislative issues since 1989, and I was the first to call the Codex threat to international health freedom to public attention in 1996 in an article in life extension Magazine.
When I wrote that article, I was an employee of the life extension Foundation spearheading the effort to keep Saul Kent and Bill Faloon out of federal prison in the aftermath of an armed FDA raid in the late '80s. They fought in the courts for many years. I also spearheaded an effort to build a rather unique museum called the FDA Holocaust Museum. |

William Faloon from life extension says, "With all the research linking low magnesium intake with high cardiovascular risks, this low-cost mineral would appear to be a simple way to counter today's heart attack and stroke epidemic. Unfortunately, magnesium is so cheap that virtually no one is promoting it as a life saving mineral."
There is no substitute for magnesium; it s as close as a metal comes to being as necessary as air.
Intravenous,Transdermal, and Oral Magnesium Mineral Therapy
"Magnesium is poorly absorbed orally. That is why I start off with injections. |
| In the early 1980s, the life extension Foundation was criticized by mainstream doctors for recommending high doses of magnesium relative to calcium. They even had their magnesium supplements seized by the FDA because they presented evidence that this mineral could help prevent heart attack.
