Subject: capsule distribution/broken capsule

Dear Karl,


1   As long as  'Life Glow' products are taken soon enough before, (long enough after), eating, is how they're distributed throughout the day relatively  unimportant, or completely  unimportant?

I began 'SLG' 10x3, but switched to  5x6, on the  assumption that, (as it was no inconvenience ), there might be some advantage to the more numerous doses.

I don't have a problem with large doses; if it  really  doesn't change a  thing,  I'll get up in the morning and take all 30, and not  think about it until the next morning.

2. For some reason , I broke a capsule in my mouth. It was surprising to note that it didn't taste bad. With the digestive properties of saliva in mind, is there any advantage, (or dis-), to taking 'SLG' 'loose'?  

Thanks,

Mark


Dear Mark,

This is a complex question.

First, there are two competing factors here.

From my viewpoint, of designing a formula, I have two somewhat conflicting objectives.

1. To advise people as to the best way to take the formula relative to eating and

2.  To advise people as to the best way to take the formula relative to ensuring that they don't forget to take them, or find the method of taking too inconvenient.

Doctors use the phrase "patient compliance" and know that patients who are told to do "something" often don't do it =-- so the doctors are often in a position of giving less than adequate instructions because they don't believe  they will get compliance with more complicated instructions.

A case in point is the method of taking antibiotics.  Doctors will admit, if you press them, that the purpose of an antibiotic is to drive the temperature DOWN.  The lowered temperature means that the bad bugs are being killed at such a rate that they are not able to increase infection, and fever.  With this understanding when the temperature starts to rise from the expected sub-normal level, you INCREASE the number of antibiotics to try to drive the temperature DOWN below normal.

During the time the patient typically feels great -- the fever is gone -- the feeling of illness is gone.

But, this is the most important time to increase the dosage of antibiotics and to try to keep the temperature sub-normal.

Only when you can no longer get the temperature down to sub-normal, despite increased dosage == only then can you consider the series of antibiotics DONE.

What happens?

The patient can't be expected to take his temperature accurately, and can't be expected to continue taking the antibiotic when he no longer feels sick.

So, the patient stops the antibiotic, and some of the bugs escape being killed, making them "super resistant" to that antibiotic in the future.  Click here for a longer story on super resistant germs.

 
We have had millions of deaths because anit biotics are not administered properly.
 
Doctors have now given up, mostly, and prescribe the antibiotic for 10 days (or whatever) with no change in dosage.  The 10 days is too rigid, etc.
 
So, people are often taking their antibiotic not long enough, or too long -- either way leads to future resistance by super bugs and failures of antibiotics to work at all.
 
We have, then, dozens of NEW antibiotics being necessary ONLY because they have not been properly administered in the past.

I have a printed article on this -- if you will send me your MAIL address, I'll send you a free copy of it -- mail only, however.

 
So, vitamins??
 
Some vitamins should be taken with food, some not.
 
You shouldn't really put these two different types of vitamins in the same capsule -- obviously the same capsule means they are taken at the same time.
 
But, patient compliance, it is much more difficult to get the user to take the "green bottle" before a meal and the "red bottle" one hour after, etc.
 
It is also true that some products should not be taken at the same time as another.  Vitamin E and iron are examples.
 
So, now you have four colored bottles for one formula.
 
Take the green pills one hour before eating, the yellow pills one hour after eating, the blue pills with food in the morning and the purple pills with food at night!!!
 
You can see that pretty soon the company asking for this compliance won't sell anything.
 
Then, you get into the next factor which is:
 
John has no trouble remembering to take the pills with Breakfast, but his day is such that he will never remember to take them if they are supposed to be taken at night. 
 
Bill is the opposite.
 
Mary can remember to take her pills if we leave it to her, while Jane can remember ONLY if given a rigid rule.
 
Finally, you get the complexities of manufacturing.  Regardless of when some nutrient should be swallowed, some of them don't MIX well with others in the same capsule -- calling for sophisticated mixing methods to keep the two ingredients apart in the pill.  Other ingredients may be best mixed together, and I'm speaking only from the viewpoint of compatibility for the manufacturing process.
 
When you get all done with these complexities, you might well figure, as I have, that more people will get the benefit of the formula only if it is easy to take.
 
So, I put all the ingredients in one capsule.  This means, for instance, that I can't include omega oils, or any oil component.
 
I tell people to take the capsules on any convenient schedule, with or without food, in the morning, evening, or any time.
 
Is this a compromise?  Yes.
 
Now, which is exactly the best way?
 
Well, even though I have alluded to a "best" way, I don't think that is an exact science either.  You have some disreputable companies that invent a fake science and say that all the other vitamins won't work because they have combined calcium and magnesium, or some such foolish claim.  They then, don't mix these two ingredients, because, they claim, there is much science to show that they should not be mixed.
 
What is a fellow to do!
 
I finally come down on the side of practicality and history of success.
 
Life Glow has been around for about 18 years -- and literally thousands of people have had dramatic success with it -- taking it on whatever schedule fit their lives.
 
I have not tried to research the full science of this because I don't think it can be practically applied.
 
So, I continue to say, for Life Glow Plus, and Super Life Glow, "There is such a large number of nutrients in each of these that the factors in favor of one schedule versus another conflict, and you should use the criteria, only, of when it is convenient to take them."
 
Now, for Life Glow Basic, there is a different rule. Because Life Glow  Basic has only four ingredients, and one of them is EDTA, and because EDTA CAN (but doesn't always) remove some valuable minerals (when heavy metals are not in the area) I have insisted on the label that this formula be taken one hour before or after a meal.
 
Otherwise, the EDTA might be in your stomach, with food containing needed minerals, and perhaps there is no metal in the food that day.  So, the EDTA would prefer to grab heavy metals, but there isn't any? So, the EDTA will grab zinc, or calcium, or whatever is available.
 
So, my label for Life Glow Basic insists that you take some mineral supplement along with the capsules, and that you take them before or after a meal.  I can be certain about this because there are so few ingredients in this formula and the science of THEM is well known.
 
So, what is the best schedule for YOU?
 
Still, the best is when it is convenient for you, for Life Glow Plus and for Super Life Glow.  Life Glow Basic? Follow the label instructions.
 
But, what if you are willing to follow any schedule?
 
Well, for LGP and SLG I still say that there is not enough science to answer that for the complex combination of more than 50 nutrients in each of these.
 
If you want to take them all at once? That's OK.
 
If you want to spread them out in several batches during the day? That's OK.
 
If you want to take them with meals? That's OK.
 
If you want to take them before or after meals? That's OK.
 
It is more important to TAKE THEM, then to worry about how or when to take them.
 
That may not be the type of answer you wanted, but it's about the best I can do.
 
Generally, it will always be BEST to take the powder in a capsule loose in your mouth -- so that some of it can be absorbed through the tissues in the mouth.
 
If you can do that?  Fine.
 
Most people don't want to try?  Fine.
 
How is all of this for avoiding the question??
 
Cordially,
 
Karl Loren
