SUMMER JOURNEY AND BEYONDAs we move into summer, we look forward with great anticipation to future growth. Over the past few

months of spring time, we have planted seeds of new programs and activities, and have watched withpleasure as they begin to flourish into a network of support for STEMTech’s worldwide expansion.

We know you will enjoy the pages of photographic memories from our Second Annual Convention (pp.8-10). This fabulous weekend was a major success, full of exciting announcements, excellent training andthree days of enjoyable socializing that people are still buzzing about. Since the Pre-Launches in Jamaicaand Taiwan, all STEMTech distributors now have the opportunity to build globally in seven countries.What’s more, the “virtual signup” program introduced at the Convention allows every STEMTechdistributor to pre-register “market pending” distributors in any country around the world! The number of“market pending” distributors per country will be a criteria for our choice of future Pre-Launches; and youwill have distributors ready to join your organization immediately upon their country’s Pre-Launch.

Also supporting our expansion around the world is the new Global Edition of The STEMTech StoryDVD, which allows you to communicate our Story in five languages. And EU RetailDirect opens thedoor to StemEnhance customers in the twenty-seven countries of the European Union.

Triggering thunderous applause at the Convention were the announcement that STEMTech is thefeatured company in the June issue of the prestigious Your Business at Home magazine, and Christian’sintroduction of StemFLOTM, a new companion product to StemEnhance® that promotes circulatoryhealth and provides antioxidant support for the body.

Enjoy your summer… It is a great time to socialize, talking face-to-face with people about howSTEMTech can change their quality of life. It might just be the answer they have been looking for.

Here’s to your growth and prosperity!

Ray C. Carter, Jr.President & CEO

MILESTONESThis year STEMTech reached numerous milestones,but one that is dear to me is the creation of the STEMTech

Global Foundation (STGF), announced at the Second Annual Convention in April. The STGF gives STEMTechfamily members a single place to make charitable contributions to the non-profit groups funded by the company.

When we created STEMTech HealthSciences, our desire was to create opportunities for health and financialfreedom, so that such freedom could, in turn, be used to improve the world around us. We strongly believe that wemake a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give. Success is measured not by what we earn but bywhat we do for others.The mission of the STGF is primarily to improve the quality of life for children around theworld, understanding that this mission oftentimes includes supporting mothers, families and the environment. Tous, there is no greater feeling of achievement than the knowledge that our daily work is actively helping to improvethe world. True elation comes from the realization that we participate in a cause greater than ourselves. So as wedevelop the STGF, we will offer you the opportunity to participate at whatever level you choose.

And there is more good news to share: You all know that when we started in 2005, the concept that bone marrowstem cells constitute the natural renewal system of the body was still in its infancy. Only three years later, this conceptis almost universally accepted in stem cell research, the result of years of dedication by many scientific teamsthroughout the world, to whom we owe much gratitude. Their research and work have made our story possible. Yetit is STEMTech that has been one of the main forces bringing this information into mainstream healthcare and tothe public. In recognition for my part in this work, I was recently awarded the title of Professor Emeritus of theNational College of Anti-Aging Medicine of Mexico. This significant milestone recognizes the work we are allinvolved in, and it is a title that I humbly share with everyone who has played in role in STEMTech’s success.

Thanks to all of you, and on to the next milestones!

Christian Drapeau Chief Science Officer

2 HEALTHSPAN summer 2008

When Christian called their names asrecipients of STEMTech’s secondannual Spirit of Service Award,

Triple Diamonds Izzy and Lori Matos werestunned. Brought to tears, Izzy says thatmoment was “probably one of the biggestmoments for me with STEMTech… and Ihave been fortunate to have many memorablemoments with this company.” When he andLori accepted the crystal award, Izzy wasuncharacteristically at a loss for words for a fewmoments, as “the significance of thisacknowledgement settled on me,” he says.

Izzy spoke of “gratitude for the people outthere, the wonderful people we have had theopportunity to work with.” He pointed out that service is thehighest calling that any of us can aspire to, and quotedChristian Drapeau: “We live and are gauged by ourcontributions to others.” Izzy said that it is “incrediblyfulfilling to come close to living by the standard of serviceestablished by Christian.”

In reflecting on the Award following the Convention, Izzyremarked that STEMTech has been wholly responsible forbringing him to a point in his life where service to others is

even possible. “There was a time, not so longago,” he recalls, “when Lori and I were reallyup against it. We had very little and had todepend on family and friends for help. So weknow how hard it is to struggle everyday just tofeed your family.”

These days, Lori and Izzy make service toothers their Number One priority, and theyhave taught these values to their three children,Adam, Cassi and Ellyn. For example, eachyear the Matos family “adopts” families at theholidays, and the whole Matos family goes outshopping for food, clothing and special treatsand toys to brighten the lives of less fortunatefamilies. “Our kids have asked that we all

forgo buying things for ourselves, so we can give more to ouradopted families,” Lori says, adding, “What better gift couldchildren give their parents than to live lives of service toothers?”

The STEMTech Spirit of Service Award occupies a place ofhonor in the Matos household. Izzy says, “Everyday it remindsus that no achievements in life are equal to those that come whenwe help others. And we are so grateful to STEMTech for givingus the opportunity to have the resources to serve others.”

It may seem a little ironic that the first member of the Chairman’s Clubis a woman, but the irony is probably lost on Teresa Curtis. She hasnever allowed herself to be stalled by a “glass ceiling” or any other

gender-based impediments to business success. From the outset, Teresahas treated her STEMTech distributorship as a business, pointing out, “Irealize that to succeed, at least ten others have to become Directors andfive have to become Triple Diamonds. I make money when they makemoney.”

Teresa says that she prospects only for “entrepreneurs, because theyalready understand the concept of working for yourself and they are self-motivated,” adding that all she needs to do is direct them to theWealthBuilders System and TeleCenter. She says, “These two systemstogether give you a complete system for filtering and processing prospects.I use them consistently, because they are the easiest and most profitableway to grow an organization.”

On board with STEMTech since before the October 2005 Pre-Launch, Teresa made Triple Diamond quickly, then “coasted” while shetook lots of vacations. Reinvigorating her business after a few months,Teresa made President’s Club by mid-2007, then continued working andbuilding to achieve Chairman’s Club by March, 2008. During nearlythree years since the original Pre-Launch, she has attended everycorporate event STEMTech has held, amassing a great deal of valuablebusiness building information that she shares with her downline and otherSTEMTech distributors. She says many people call her “teacher,” andexplains, “Many people come up to me at Conventions and events andthank me for helping them become successful. That is very rewarding tome.”

These days,Teresa says, “I’m back in ‘recruiting mode,’ because I wantto further expand my business -- and go to Cancun – so I’m on the phonea lot, both nationally and internationally. But,” she points out, “even inrecruiting mode, STEMTech is a fulltime job with part-time hours. I lovethis company!”

Teresa’s Tips for Approaches

Las Vegas, Nevada

CHAIRMAN’S CLUB


TRIPLE DIAMONDS

Dr. Sean DevlinColorado

As a physician working in a hospitalemergency room, Sean Devlin has

seen his share of patients facing seriousphysical challenges.Also trained in thefield of anti-agingmedicine, he hasbeen exposed, hesays, to “a plethora ofn u t r i t i o n a lsupplements filledwith promises.” Itwas not until one of the nutritional-savvyVIP patients in his personal practicedescribed some dramatic results withStemEnhance®, however, that Seandecided to take a look, thinking, “If it’sthis good, let me try it out.”

A dedicated exerciser and weight-lifter, Sean knew his tolerance level forwork-outs. He was genuinely surprised,therefore, when his tolerance increased bytwenty percent, after only a short timewith StemEnhance. “I also noticed animproved general energy level,” he says,“and I began to see improvements in thevision challenges I have been facing.” Seandecided to begin introducingStemEnhance “slowly but surely” to hispatients. His approach has been “verycasual,” he notes, explaining that mostpeople have come to him to ask hisopinion about StemEnhance. “I tell themthat I have seen positive results with overseventy-five percent of those taking it,” hesays, “and I have seen no ‘side-effects.’”

With the help of Teresa Curtis andSTEMTech’s systems, Sean’s business hasgrown. “I went into this with noexpectations,” he says, “but I have beenlucky to work with very motivated people.”A man who lives “in the present, notregretting the past or worrying about thefuture,” Sean believes that STEMTech isthe perfect support for his “Optimal Now.”

Mitch FieldsWellness PartnersCalifornia

For years, Mitch has owned a successfulbusiness that sells nutritional

supplements, mostly through the internet.He says that he avoided network marketingcompany associations prior to findingSTEMTech, because too often companiesmarketing nutritional supplements“promised everything but could deliver verylittle on their promises to improve health.”Even when he heard about personaltestimonials from people who hadexperienced dramatic benefits fromStemEnhance, Mitch was still skeptical.But when a number of his retail customersstarted requesting StemEnhance in early2007, he enrolled with the ProRetailer Pakso he could add StemEnhance to hisinventory of supplements.

Then, he says, “the totally unsolicited,powerful testimonials from people I knowand respect began to come in,” and Mitchbegan to believe. Asthe word aboutStemEnhance spreadfrom customer tocustomer, and fromone person to familymembers andfriends, more andmore people cameto Wellness Partners to purchaseStemEnhance. “We sell a lot of it,” Mitchsays. And for a growing number of theseretail customers, the STEMTechopportunity is attractive, too: So with thehelp of Teresa Curtis, Mitch has built astrong downline that includes quite a fewbusiness builders. “One of my employees,Sage Daily, made Triple Diamond before Idid!” he says.

Since Mitch and his wife Michelle bothenjoy outdoor activities that include scubadiving, the Fields are working these days toensure that they qualify for the DiamondDream GetAway in Cancun. “Michelle sayswe can do it easily,” Mitch says, “so I’mcounting on being there in December!”

Ray MikelonisToxic Mold Consulting, LLCMichigan

When Ray called his old friend RobCranston in May, 2007, he had just

quit selling cars and was open to a newbusiness opportunity. “Rob told me aboutStemEnhance® and the results he wasseeing, and sent me to his WealthBuilderswebsite,” he says. “After seeing just half theStemEnhance video, I called him back,credit card in hand, ready to enroll.” Ray’smajor incentiveswere threefold:“It was a newcompany withp a t e n t e dt e c h n o l o g y,there were onlyabout 25,000distributors inthe company,and the average reorder rate was over eightypercent. With numbers like that, I knew ifI went to work, I’d be successful.”

Ray takes every opportunity tointroduce STEMTech. At STEMTech’sConvention in April, he shared theelevator with a doctor attending awedding at the hotel, who inquiredabout stem cell science, which he hadbeen hearing discussed throughout theday. “I invited him to my room, showedhim my WealthBuilders website videoand gave away my first Your Business AtHome,” Ray says, adding, “Now I have aretired hematologist/oncologist on mySTEMTech team!”

Ray’s enthusiasm for STEMTech’sproducts has exploded since StemFLOTM

was introduced. “After two weeks withStemFLO, I no longer have to back intomy car’s seat and swing my legs aroundbecause of back problems,” he says.When he went shopping recently for theSTEMTech BMW he wants, he “steppedinto those cars like a normal person.”And he left a copy of Your Business AtHome, with his interested salesman toshare with other car-shoppers!


Dr. Pedro MiramontesSalud IdealGuadalajara, Mexico

These daysyou can

find Dr. PedroMir amonte straveling allover Mexico,i n t r o d u c i n gStemEnhance®to people inlarge cities, small towns and tiny villages.A man who has dedicated his life tohelping others achieve “salud ideal” (idealhealth), Dr. Miramontes has been apracticing general surgeon in Guadalajara,and now devotes ninety percent of hisefforts to spreading the good news aboutStemEnhance to his countrymen.

With eighteen years of networkmarketing experience, Dr. Miramontessays he was attracted to STEMTechbecause, “The product is 100% natural,and scientific studies have proven how itworks to benefit the health of the body.”While his primary focus is on theproduct, the doctor is also building agrowing organization of eager businessbuilders throughout Mexico and theUnited States, with help from Izzy Matosand VP Oscar Rosas, who brought him toSTEMTech a year ago.

Since the STEMTech Second AnnualConvention, when the Virtual Sign-Upprogram was introduced, Dr. Miramonteshas made good use of this innovative idea,enrolling Pending Distributors in LatinAmerican countries. “When thesecountries open for STEMTech, I will beready with a team in place,” he explains.And with a son who is a surgeon in Spain,Dr. Miramontes is looking forward to aPre-Launch on the Iberian Penninsula,too. STEMTech provides just what thegood doctor finds most fulfilling in life:“I enjoy traveling,” he says, “especiallywhen my travel gives me the opportunityto help as many people as possible toovercome their health challenges withStemEnhance.”

Patricia PastorCalifornia

With every step I take,” Patricia says,“I am thankful to StemEnhance

for coming into my life.” After more thaneight years of relentless discomfort thatleft her with little mobility, it took only acouple of weeks for Patricia to realize that“something was going on in my hip area.I was able to walk straight again!”

Patricia says that her dramatic resultswere just “the icing on the cake.” As anetwork marketing professional, she was“looking for something unique to getinvolved with.” She contacted TeresaCurtis, who explained the science behindStemEnhance as well as the attractiveSTEMTech comp plan, and Patricia says,“I knew I was in the right place at the righttime to find and experience this life-changingproduct.”

B e g i n n i n gpart-time, Patriciawent fulltimewith STEMTechin mid-2007. Shea p p l a u d sS T E M Te c h ’ ssystems, which, shepoints out, havebeen “critical to helping build mybusiness,” adding that “WealthBuildersand TeleCenter are two systems that giveeveryone the opportunity to be successful!”She explains that these systems allow herto be what she wants to be: “a teacher and‘tour guide,’ not a salesperson.” Althoughshe looks toward achieving President’sClub next, Patricia says she would ratherfocus on the success of her downline: “Iwant to help them all becomemillionaires,” she says.

STEMTech’s recent Conventionsuited Patricia just right: “Unlike othercompanies’ conventions, it was a hype-free,straightforward strategy session that said,‘Here’s where we are, here’s where we’regoing… Now let’s get started!’ I love thatsort of business realism!”

Carmen Cameron Diamond DirectorFlorida

AJamaican living in Florida,Carmen confesses that she was not

at all receptive when a friend tried tointroduce StemEnhance to her. But sheagreed to listen in on a conference call,she says, “and that changed my mind.”She began taking StemEnhance, buthad no plans for building a business,partially because her husband Cliff wasnot convinced there was anything toStemEnhance.

All this changed when a friend of the Camerons experienced aremarkable result with StemEnhance. “We both knew howlimited her life had become,” Carmen explains, “so when we sawthat she had regained a good quality of life, thanks toStemEnhance, we were both won over.” Cliff began taking theproduct daily, and now helps Carmen with the business. “He talksto people at his Jamaican running club, explaining the benefitsathletes experience with the product,” Carmen says, adding, “Weare both great believers in this product.”

Carmen and Cliff travel frequently between Florida andJamaica, sharing StemEnhance wherever they are. Recently,Carmen joined the happy group in attendance at the Taiwan Pre-Launch, “so now we have new contacts in Asia,” Carmen says.

STEMTech’s Second Annual Convention reinforced the goodfeeling Carmen has had about the company ever since sheattended the First Annual Convention. “I am so impressed withRay and Christian,” Carmen says. “These are people who haveheart and soul. We are fortunate to have them leading thiscompany.” And Carmen feels great gratitude to everyone in herorganization, saying, “I'd like to thank all of them for using theproduct, believing in the product and being smart enough to seizea good opportunity when they saw it!”

Tom and Cheryl Goff Sapphire DirectorsCalifornia

It was January 21, 2008, whenTom and Cheryl decided to

become part of the STEMTechfamily, enrolling with theDirector Pak. “After analyzingthe business opportunity,” Tomsays, “we saw right away thatstarting with the Director Pak isthe way to go. It’s just math…With the 81-bottle inventory,you can make a great profitselling at retail, and sellingwholesale is still good money.” Cheryl explains that they provide agood example for people they sign up, also. “When theentrepreneurs we approach consider their options, we can say, ‘Wedid it with the Director Pak. You can, too.’ ” Many of theentrepreneurs in their downline have enrolled with the Director Pak.

When Tom was introduced to STEMTech, he was veryinterested in the science behind StemEnhance, and decided to learnall he could about how the product works with stem cells in the body.Since he and Cheryl had been out of network marketing for nearlyten years, they had no “ready downline” at their fingertips, so, Tomsays, “We started from zero, working our warm market.” They soonhad ten legs, five of them very strong. “One of our stronger legsincludes a very aggressive networker who understands the power ofthree-way calls with his upline to speak to prospects,” Cheryl says, “sohe and Tom worked together extensively. Most of the people theyapproach enroll, and many of them are health care professionals!”

Cheryl says, “STEMTech has completely changed thedirection of my life. At StemTech’s Annual Convention, I was soimpressed that I decided to focus on building this business withmy husband. We love sharing StemEnhance with peopleeveryday and watching the many ways it improves people’s lives!”

Jerry LindseyRuby DirectorTexas

Over more than forty yearsin network marketing,

Jerry has been involved with allsorts of products and thecompanies marketing them.Since October, 2005, when hefirst heard about StemEnhanceand STEMTech, however, hehas been single-focused:“StemEnhance is the top singleproduct in the world,” he says,“and it has a very strong company behind it.” He notes that theretention rate with STEMTech is one of the highest in the entirenetwork marketing industry, and with good reason: “Everybodyneeds StemEnhance – and now StemFLO, too,” he says. “Thatmeans that STEMTech is a great network marketingopportunity.”

Jerry says he does “tons” of three-way calls, “way deep” in hisorganization, explaining, “I want everybody to be successful.Everyday I wake up and ask myself, ‘Who can I help today?’” Hesays that it is important for new distributors to get anorganization twenty wide on AutoShip as fast as they can.“When I get a leader on whatever level,” he says, “I work withthem, especially during the first month, until they have enoughfooting. I believe that the key to building a successfulorganization is staying with your people, teaching them how tomake the best use of the comp plan.”

Since April, Jerry has been making good use of the June issueof Your Business At Home,” in re-approaches to some people whocould not see the value of STEMTech earlier. “One fellow wasalmost dancing… He had wanted to do the business all along,but his wife had said no. When she saw the magazine,everything changed. They came in FastStart!”

Since our successful Pre-Launch celebrations, our office has beenvisited by many potential distributors. The US Asian leaders, whostayed on for a few more weeks, recruited many distributors in Taipei,first introducing StemEnhance® to them and afterward bringing theminto the office. Once they visited our sparkling, professional offices andexperienced The STEMTech Story in Mandarin, they signed up.

To ensure that new enrollees have a good start, we hold seminarseveryday in our meeting rooms, training distributors in the businessopportunity, the product and the compensation plan. These seminarshave been averaging about 30 to 40 people in attendance.

I have been concentrating also on training our office staff, headed byGM Sampson Chu, in all areas of service. It is important that everyoneworking at our Taipei office knows how to explain the compensationplan and the basic science about our product, so they can answerquestions from new distributors. We are currently updating our websitesto ensure that we maintain compliance with regulatory agencies; and weappreciate the patience of stateside distributors during this process.

With more than one hundred new distributors on board, we areseeing distributors in the rank of Director and Executive Directorappearing in our reports. As we are still in the infancy of our Taiwanoperation, it is very exciting for us in the Taipei office when we see eachnew Director and Executive Director advancement. We anticipatemany more advancements to come!

Many North American leaders who attended the Pre-Launch tellme they are still excited about STEMTech’s opening of the Asiancontinent in Taiwan. I enjoy their encouraging emails. Triple DiamondMarijke Long wrote that she had never before had an experience likethe Taiwan Pre-Launch, saying, “This type of experience you can’t buywith money!” I am humbled by her kind words and those of manyothers. After all the hard work we put into preparations for the Pre-Launch in a very short timeframe, we are pleased that things turned outwell, and that STEMTech has had a wonderful introduction to Asia.

Taiwan Pre-Launch Memoryby Coleen Hatashita

It was so exciting to be able to witness history in the making,as StemEnhance came to Taiwan. I was happy to be there towelcome STEMTech HealthSciences to Asia. We could allfeel the excitement building as Ray and Christian preparedto cut the red ribbon. Everybody looked so handsome in theirwhite gloves and tropical boutonnieres! When the ribbonwas cut, STEMTech was officially opened, and thenoisemakers added merriment to the celebration.

Many STEMTech leaders from the United States helpedto make this special day a great success. All of us whotraveled to Taiwan agreed that the people of Taipei areespecially pleasant and helpful. We had fun shopping – inquite fashionable stores – and sight-seeing, and we evenplayed ping-pong. We enjoyed it all. The Taiwan Pre-Launch was an experience to remember!

POSTCARDSTAIWAN

Postcards from Taiwanby Jonathan Lim, VP Asian Markets

But the formation of fibrin in itself is just one step in this complexmulti-step process, and without the full activation of thecoagulation cascade, the formation of fibrin does not lead to full

blood clot. It simply leads to the presence of free-flowing fibrin mesh inthe blood. This is what happens when there is oxidative stress in theblood. Free radicals in the blood lead to the formation of fibrin meshwhose size can at times impair optimal blood flow. Fibrin mesh canreduce blood flow through capillaries and prevent the circulation ofstem cells in certain areas of the body, depriving these areas of thenatural process of renewal. Therefore, the two mainstrategies to support stem cell delivery to every tissueof the body are to eliminate the presence of fibrinmesh and to prevent its formation when it is notneeded to repair an injury. To do so, we havecreated StemFLO, a blend of fibrinolyticenzymes (fibrinolytic: that cuts fibrin) andpowerful antioxidants.

Because many products exist on themarketplace designed to increase the fibrinolyticactivity of the blood and to provide strong antioxidant properties,our mission with StemFLO was to search for the best qualityavailable, and that’s what we did. Most antioxidants are tested usinga laboratory procedure that measures antioxidant capacity in a testtube, not in a living cell. These tests provide interestinginformation, but the results do not say anything about the effect of aspecific antioxidant in the body, where it matters. So we used a novelassay called CAPe (Cell-based Antioxidant Protection inerythrocytes), and equipped with this assay during nearly three yearswe searched for the most effective ingredients available.

We discovered a unique location in Southeast Asia and developed arelationship with a farm that produces the top quality mangosteen crop,the only organically certified mangosteen available. When testedagainst some of the most popular sources of mangosteen on themarketplace, our source tested up to twenty times more potent.Likewise, we tested several sources of cat’s claw, one of the most

powerful antioxidant herbs available, and found the one withthe most potent antioxidant and immune-supportingproperties. Finally, working in collaboration with scientists

in the field of berries and polyphenols, we developed aberry extract that provides one of the highestconcentrations of polyphenols so far tested. And wecompleted this formula with curcumin and rehmannia, two

botanical ingredients that are not yet generally known bymost people, but that are very well known in herbal sciences for

their antioxidant properties and their ability to help purify the blood andsupport optimal blood circulation.

What is novel in the StemFLO formula is the blend of powerfulantioxidant and fibrinolytic properties, aiming at supporting optimalblood flow in the capillaries to optimize stem cell delivery to every tissueof the body. The novelty of this approach is such that a patent has beenfiled on StemFLO,concentrating on the physiological effect of blendingtogether strong antioxidant and fibrinolytic botanical ingredients.

Now, this is all good theory, but how can we determine whetherStemFLO effectively improves blood circulation in the body? There aremany tests to measure blood circulation,but only one that can effectivelymeasure circulation in the capillaries, the smallest blood vessels wherestem cell migration takes place.

StemFLO was designed essentially to dotwo things to promote optimal blood flowand circulation of stem cells in the body: 1 To reduce existing fibrin in the blood; and 2 To prevent the formation of fibrin.

Introducing a Patent-Pending Novel Formula toOptimize Stem CellCirculation

Fibrin is a molecule normally produced in the blood as part of the coagulation process, to stop blood

flow after an injury. During an injury, the damaged tissue activates a complex multi-step process

leading to the formation of fibrin and then the cross-linking of fibrin strands to form the final blood clot.

One of the blood’s main roles is to carry oxygen to every part ofthe body. The network of capillaries is so extensive that most tissuecells lay within 3-4 cells from a capillary. When there is optimal bloodcirculation, the delivery of oxygen is plenty and oxygen diffusesthrough the tissue. It is possible to monitor this phenomenon bymeasuring the amount of oxygen released through the skin by thecapillaries located in the superficial layers of the skin. However, whenoxygen delivery is impaired by reduced blood flow through thecapillaries, the level of trans-cutaneous oxygen can fall significantly.Therefore, we measured the amount of oxygen released through theskin before and after consumption of StemFLO

When an individual lies down and rests, the lack of movementslowly reduces the amount of blood flowing through the skin, and thereis a normal reduction in trans-cutaneous oxygen (as the blue line showsin the graph). When StemFLO is given to individuals, within twentyminutes there is a reversal of that phenomenon, indicating an improvedblood circulation through capillaries. By digesting fibrin in the bloodand preventing fibrin formation, StemFLO promotes optimal capillarycirculation throughout the body.

So what is the best way of taking StemFLO? It is important notto take StemFLO at mealtime. When StemFLO is taken with ameal, the enzymes would be somewhat consumed during the processof digestion. It is also important to take StemFLO along withStemEnhance®, so that the stem cells released from the bone marrowcan best take advantage of the improved capillary circulationthroughout the body. If a person wants to take additional StemFLOto further improve blood circulation, it is probably better to take itmore often during the day than to take more capsules at once.

Measuring the level of oxygen that permeates through the skin is anaccurate way of estimating capillary blood flow. Upon lying down, it isnormal to see the level of trans-cutaneous oxygen decrease (blue line).In this situation, any change in capillary flow can be detected as anincrease in trans-cutaneous oxygen release. Within minutes afterconsumption of StemFlo, capillary flow is significantly improved (redline). Lines represent the average of three tests in one individual.

Blood coagulation can be triggered by irregularities in thecardiovascular system (intrinsic system; top left) or by actual injuriesto tissues (extrinsic system; top right). Both systems lead to theactivation of a series of compounds whose common end point is thetransformation of prothrombin into thrombin, and then thetransformation by thrombin of fibrinogen into fibrin mesh. During thenormal coagulation proces, the formation of thrombin also triggersthe cross-linking of fibrin to complete the formation of the blood clot.When fibrinogen is transformed into fibrin mesh by the action of freeradicals, this isolated process does not lead to full blood clot butsimply to soluble fibrin mesh floating in the circulation.


“When a tissue or blood vesselis damaged, the coagulationprocess leads to the formationof fibrin mesh at the site of theinjury. The fibrin mesh capturesred and white blood cells,forming a plug that stops theblood loss from the bloodvessel.”

“With excessive oxidative stressin the blood, fibrin mesh candevelop in the bloodstream,without injury, and impair optimalblood flow.”

Dr. Joyce JohnsonWellness Center of AmericaCalifornia

An expert in hematology, Dr. Joyce was a guest on a cable TVshow about breast cancer, hosted by Ethel Lover. Because Ethelknew of Joyce’s great fascination with the science of adult stemcells, she called Joyce later to introduce her to StemEnhance®.Dr. Joyce and her son began taking StemEnhance, and she beganrecommending it to her clients at the Wellness Center. “WhenI saw improvement in myself and my son, who has serious healthchallenges, and when my clients reported dramatic results, Irealized at once that this is real,” Dr. Joyce says.

Even though she had “made a vow years ago never to beinvolved in network marketing,” Dr. Joyce says the STEMTechopportunity was not to be denied. “StemEnhance is so unique, awonderful, patented product,” she says, “and I truly believe that itis the most amazing medical and nutritional breakthrough thatany of us will ever see.” What’s more, she notes, “STEMTech isa ground-floor opportunity for us. How could anyone say no?”

Since Dr. Joyce is kept very busy caring for clients at herWellness Center, she is especially grateful for the support ofPatricia Pastor, who has helped her with “the business side ofthings,” as she develops her STEMTech organization. Recently,76-year-old Dr. Joyce sent out 12,000 postcards to her WellnessCenter database, with the photo of herself swimming withdolphins and a simple message: “Dr. Joyce says StemEnhancekeeps her young!” Since then, she says, “The phone never stopsringing… Everybody wants to know about StemEnhance!”

Irene MasciFlorida

Like many people, Irene was unaware inlate 2005 that we humans have stem cells inour bodies. But she was intrigued by thebreakthrough science behind StemEnhance,and she was highly motivated to learneverything about the unique product and theassociated business opportunity. Having recently lost a daughter tocancer and facing some physical problems herself, Irene wanted to

pursue a regimen of wellness supported by StemEnhance. As she wasalso struggling to make ends meet on Social Security alone, shelooked to the STEMTech opportunity to help her financially.

“I made a commitment to myself,” she says, “that I would get onevery conference call the company had, so I could learn the business,”and to this day she attends every training event in the Orlando area,“so I can learn more.” Irene approaches people, telling them, “I canhelp you to be on your way to wellness free,” and handing them abrochure. Nowadays, she also uses Your Business at Home inapproaches. “My picture’s on page 49!” she says happily.

In October, 2006, Irene’s call to Joan and Sam Reid, a couplerecently relocated to Florida from Jamaica, had life-changing results:When the Reids saw dramatic results from StemEnhance inthemselves and their son, they shared their excitement with Dr. LanaRiettie,a fellow Jamaican living in Florida. “And,”Irene says,“’The restis history!’” explaining that Dr. Riettie has been a major motivatingforce behind STEMTech’s Pre-Launch in Jamaica, and noting,“Practically all of the distributors in Jamaica are in my downline!”

Chris RuckerAbundant Life MinistriesFlorida

It is very hard to catch up withChris Rucker, because she is usuallyoff somewhere in the United Statesor abroad, presenting healtheducation and lifestyle seminars forchurch groups. Her weekend classes

stress the importance of a lifestyle that includes exercise,proper nutrition and dietary supplements. A wellness educatorsince 1970, Chris took her message into the spiritual realm in1983. “Wellness and spirituality are a perfect fit,” she explains.

Chris says, “I have always been looking for one product that coulddo a lot for the body, a product with mass appeal.” Since SusanOravsky introduced her to StemEnhance last year, Chris says, “Now Ihave the perfect product to recommend to everyone in my seminars…It’s one simple, green food that is all they need to supplement theirhealthy diet.” She is thankful for the introduction of StemFLOTM, too,she says, because “it is the ideal companion for StemEnhance.Together, they deliver good health to every part of the body!”

StemEnhance and StemFLO have been blessings for Chrispersonally, with her very busy schedule of traveling andspeaking. “It used to be,” she says, “that I would come homeSunday night completely wiped out, and it took all dayMonday for me to recover. Since StemEnhance andStemFLO, I have been doing engagements, making calls andholding meetings on Mondays. What a wonderful difference!”

These days Chris is especially excited that she is “almostqualified” for Cancun. “Some of my Diamonds will be goingwith me, so we all share the trip of a lifetime!”

Jeff Schofield, D.C.The Liambs DenIllinois

Jeff Schofield’s connection to Taiwanbegan back in the late Seventies, whenhe served there as a missionary andbecame fluent in Mandarin. In 1983, hereturned to Taiwan on a successful questto locate the aged mother of a friend,and he has wanted to return to the

country ever since.His opportunity came in May, when Jeff joined the

celebratory Pre-Launch of Taiwan, staying on in the countrywith the family he had come to know on his first two visitsnearly thirty years ago. “The opportunity in Asia is awesome,”he says, “and with my ability to speak Mandarin, I hope todevelop a large group there.” He and his wife Claire plan toreturn to Taiwan together to teach English part-time and dotheir STEMTech business fulltime. He feels thatStemEnhance® is a perfect fit with the Asian approach towellness. “I see StemEnhance as a blessing which will awakenthe forgotten memory of the oneness of all humanity, asrecorded in the adult stem cell,” he says.

Educated as a chiropractor and working recently as awelder – both professions well-rooted in his ancestry – Jeffmeets people from many walks of life. Recently, he has beenintroducing StemEquineTM to people in the farrier profession,after seeing exceptional results in breeder Craig Kelly’s twotrotter stallions. “They were both facing health challengesthat threatened to have them put out to pasture,” Jeff explains.“StemEquine brought both of these stallions back into thegame, performing like stallions of three to seven years of age!”

Lena SchultzManitoba

When long-haul trucker TonySchultz experienced a suddenproblem with his vision that lefthim unsure about his career inmid-2007, Lena says, “We were

backed up against a huge ‘What if?’ Trucking is what myhusband had done for twenty-seven years, so he knew no otherway to make an income.” When Martin Thiessen suggestedthat StemEnhance might help with the ‘What if,’ theSchultzes were highly skeptical, but agreed to try it. Twoweeks later, when Tony’s vision had improved dramatically,Lena says “My belief went from zero to sixty! We signed upFastStart right then, and a week later upgraded to the Director

Pak.” Lena called her mother, Mary Peters, to share thenews about StemEnhance and the STEMTech opportunity.

Lena’s business took off like a rocket. “All I did wasshare my husband’s story with people, and nine out of tenusually signed up,” she says, adding, “By the time my orderarrived, most of it was already spoken for!” Lena realizedshe would need to do the STEMTech business fulltime,because, “I need to be there for my new enrollees.” Whenit became a challenge to get back to people she hadapproached or enrolled, Lena made a decision. Sheremoved her traveling clothes from Tony’s truck. “I’m donewith trucking,” she says.

Lena keeps motivated by the many positive results herdistributors and customers have with StemEnhance. Shelooks toward a day when she and Tony can “just enjoy life,”noting, “With STEMTech that time is not far off for us.”

Mary PetersOntario

Lena Schultz’s mother,Mary Peters, is “an awesomenetworker,” Lena says, “but shewill agree to market onlyproducts she can believe in

100%.” Both Mary and her husband Cornelius were dealingwith some challenges common to their senior citizen status, soLena’s call about StemEnhance was a godsend for them,although they felt it was “too good to be true” at first. Marysays, “I believed Tony's story and shared it with my friends.Soon I saw results for myself and learned about StemEnhancescience. Since then, I have believed 100% in this product.When I tell people that StemEnhance is the only product theyneed, they believe it, too.”

Because fifty percent of Lena’s and Mary’s distributorshipsis comprised of Canadians and Mexicans who speak LowGerman, Lena has created many of their materials. “Nearlyninety percent of our people do not use computers, either,”Mary says, “so we use the telephone a lot, and we hold homemeetings, which are especially effective with the many Amishdistributors we have.”

Although they live in different provinces, Lena helps hermother build her business. “Lena and I have done meetingstogether and separately,” Mary says, adding, “Lena handlesmost of the computer work for both of us.” Since Mary andLena have had only one “real” vacation that was not visitingwith family, mother and daughter are really excited these days,as Mary explains: “Our work has really paid off for us… We’reboth qualified for the Cancun trip!”

Even though she is a retirednurse, Susan says she is “TheOriginal Junk Food Junkie.” Shesays, “I know what to do when itcomes to food, but I just don’t doit. I love white flour and sugar!”As a result, Susan says she hasbeen overweight, has had noenergy and has been easilywinded, especially on stairs.

Married to Dr. DavidDarbro, whom Susan describes as“The Original Health FoodJunkie,” Susan is no stranger tofoods and supplements thatpromise simple, painless solutionsleading to a healthier lifestyle.But she was very skeptical aboutwhat STEMTech’s new productcould do, when she and Davidwere asked to pre-test StemFLOearly in the spring.

“To my amazement,” Susansays, “in only three days I noticedan increase inmy generalsense of well-being.” Aftertwo weeks onthe product,Susan wasshocked torealize that shewas not out ofbreath whenshe climbedthe two flightsof stairs between her husband’soffice in the basement and herown office on the second floor. “Ihad such an increase in stamina,”she says. “It was really amazing!”

After the pre-test, theDarbros had to wait for theintroduction of StemFLOTM atthe Convention to buy theproduct. During that hiatus,

Susan happened to experience thesort of extreme stiffness in her

neck and back that shehad battled off and on foryears, as a result of injuries.Only a few days afterresuming StemFLO, sheonce again experiencedthe feeling of wellbeingand increased stamina asbefore,but, she says,“I wasalso able to move aroundwith ease for the first timein weeks!”

Susan takes StemFLOthree times a day, after breakfast, atnoon and in the evening, andcredits STEMTech’s new productwith helping her go from a “glasshalf empty”to a “glass half full” typeof person. “StemFLO hasdefinitely increased my quality oflife,” she says. “I am really excitedabout this product!”

Mark Parsekian M. Parsekian & AssociatesMassachusetts

“Athletes are always looking forways to improve their performance,”runner Mark Parsekian says.Therefore, he was eager to discoverwhether STEMTech’s new productwould have a noticeable effect on histraining regimen,when he agreed tobe part of the pre-test of the productthis spring. He had not run forseveral weeks, had gained a littleweight, and knew he needed to getback into condition.

He began the pre-test andresumed his training at the sametime and watched carefully forresults. “From the beginning, I hadmore energy, focus andconcentration,” he says. “I could doworkouts to a greater level, and I didnot labor so intensely. During trial

runs I was not gasping for breath…It was as though I had more oxygenreaching all the cells of my body.”Marks explains that oxygen isespecially important for athletes,because its delivery to the body’scells is critical for achieving theoptimal state of performance

Now back on a routine oftraining for competitive running,Mark has made StemFLOTM anintegrated part of his dailyregime. “With StemFLO,” hesays, “it feels like my body is‘functioning on all cylinders’ like awell-tuned machine.”
