You Can Stop Anxiety & Stress…Before They Stop You

Serious heart problem.

Weakened immunity.

Chronic illness.

These are what can await you when dealing with daily anxiety and stress, according to the American Medical Association.

In fact, more than 75 percent of all sicknesses today are a result of these poisonous emotions, the group says.

We all have occasional anxiety and stress.

But if you’re experiencing them practically every day you need to act.  If you have frequent, sudden attacks of apprehension and panic that don’t have a direct cause you need to act.

Because….

As the effects of your worries and fears build, heart rate and blood pressure increases. Your heart then works harder to produce blood flow needed for bodily functions.

Long-term elevations in blood pressure is harmful and can lead to heart attack, heart failure, abnormal heart rhythms, and stroke, states the Oct. 10, 2007 issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association.

Constant anxiety and stress also makes your body vulnerable to a variety of ailments, some slight, some severe.

What I’m leading up to is this. Everyday anxiety and stress, regardless of the source, limits your ability to live a happy, fulfilling life.

Actually, Tyron Edwards, a 19^th Century American theologian, said it best:  “Anxiety is the rust of life, destroying its brightness and weakening its power.”

But, you’ll be glad to know, a safe, effective solution to these toxic twins is finally available.

Stressful Daily Life?  Now You Can Thrive Not Just Survive

Dread daily situations or environments that create unexpected and unnecessary worries?  AdvoCare’s OASIS offers you a haven of balance and overall health in today’s increasingly chaotic world.

To prove this, let me explain how OASIS helps your body adapt to stress. How it could end your suffering.  And why, because of its key ingredients and AdvoCare’s proven track record since opening in 1993, it’s the superior selection.

Sound like product puffery? Read on.

OASIS works its “magic” by combining adaptogens, berry extracts and B vitamins.  These three key ingredients are what make OASIS different, and enable anxiety and stress victims to completely turn their lives around.

Let’s take a closer look at them.

• Adaptogens
  Adaptogens thrive in harsh conditions, including extreme climates, such as Siberia and Scandinavia. They provide nutrients that work within our body to help it run itself.  When taken, these herbs help power our body’s ability to fight stress, anxiety, and fatigue.

• Berry Extracts
  Each found on a different continent, Chokeberry, Elderberry, Maqui Berry and Black Currant are the global super berries in this formula. These extracts are packed with antioxidants and polyphenols to reduce the effect of free radicals, which can cause cell damage or disease.  These berries are also known to have anti-inflammatory properties and provide immune support.

• B Vitamins
  B vitamins help restore youthful energy levels.  They also aid in boosting cardiovascular and mental health, and support a healthy aging process.

Additionally, AdvoCare’s OASIS contains more than 100% of the Reference Dietary Intake (RDI) for vitamin B12.  Why?  As we age, most of us gradually begin to lose the ability to absorb vitamin B12. Research has shown that by providing extra vitamin B12, the body can be encouraged to increase its absorption. This helps foster greater overall health.

Cutting Edge Science With You In Mind

Guaranteeing that the ingredients in OASIS are the safest, most efficient, and highest quality available is AdvoCare’s own “police force”—its Scientific & Medical Advisory Board.

Highly regarded and recognized in their areas of expertise, members of this board ensured that OASIS was based on proven and effective science and nutrition. And they promise OASIS offer a unique, total solution to your needs.

• “AdvoCare products are of such high quality because the unique combination of ingredients have excellent absorption that work together to provide positive results and outcomes,” says board member Judith Smith, Pharm.D., BCOP, FCCP, FISOPP, University of Texas.

• Fellow board member Carl Keen, Ph.D, agrees. “Translating high science into high-quality products is a challenge, and AdvoCare has always been a leader in this pursuit,” says the Distinguished Professor of Nutrition & Internal Medicine, University of California, Davis.

•  “AdvoCare products are distinct for their innovative formulations and top-quality ingredients. We value putting great science into great products,” adds Robert Hackman, Ph.D., board chair and research professor, Department of Nutrition, also of UC, Davis.
