This is a Story of How I found out about the Benefits of L-Arginine, why I started taking a Liquid Arginine Product and why I will never have a time in my future in which L-Arginine supplementation in my diet will not be a part of my life. This article is also about why I now take Mega Cardio Health Plus and Cardio Boost from the Good Life International, and what my views are on MLM Marketing in general.
I want to Tell you about why I Love Arginine.
My Love affair with the Amino Acid Arginine
began in March of 2007.
A Bit About Me.
I have written about and studied Alternative Medicine for 20 Years. I have always been passionate about Natural Cures and ways of reversing disease that are gentle on our bodies and work oftentimes better then traditional medicine does.
I had been interested in natural substances that migh cure or help atherosclerosis, or at least ways to hold back the progression of atherosclerosis in my life, and to teach others how to fight atherosclerosis with natural remedies. I studied the wonderful benefits of garlic on atherosclerosis and did research other heart diseases, ailments and discomforts. However, I had not come to terms with admitting that I had a Heart Disease of any kind. I mean when I first got my really bad attack of Angina I was in my early 20's for crying out loud. So there was no way I was going to admit or even consider it to be heart disease, for I felt that was something to do with Aging and not really a disease or health issue that someone my age could get.
I had severe pains through my chest, chest compression, lighting strike bolts through my chest that would disable me for a second, I would occasionally scream out and quite inappropriately. After the bolt and the sharp pain would come the feeling of kicked in the chest, and the pain you might feel the day after a bad bruise, yet this pain was moments after... I ignored it, meaning I did not know what to do so I did nothing. I course I ment
ioned it when I would get blood tests..

I ignored it, meaning I did not know what to do so I did nothing. I course I ment
ioned it when I would get blood tests.. And did mention the pain to a doctor or two, but they never thought it was anything serious. However, on that note I have personally known people that have went to the doctor with heart pain, was sent home with nothing wrong and died the very next day or week. So I don't trust doctors to tell me how I am feeling or that there is nothing wrong. That is just my personal opinion, based on my personal experience.
Though my clients, my friends would express concern, I simply ignored the issue and the potential seriousness of those Angina Attacks. Looking back, well I would have been scared watching me as well. I mean there I was talking along and all of the sudden would grab my chest scream out, turn away a moment and then turn back as if nothing had happen. I would rub my chest now and then for hours after and would simply move on about my life. It happened often and was always a surprise attack. I never did figure out any rhyme or reason, no certain food or activity - it was simply there.. SURPRISE.. Lighting like a giant incredibly sharp rod through your chest.
I simply never looked for a cure, because I had not even admitted yet that there was a problem, though it was pretty obvious to those around me. However, I am convinced had I not been introduced to L-Arginine when I was, I was headed for a Heart Attack. Looking back I am very VERY grateful as to this fateful incident of Arginine coming into my life.
Heart Disease in the Family
I do have Heart Disease in My Family as my aunt died of what they call an expoded heart, she had high blood pressure and hypertension for years. She did everything the Doctors told her to do and nothing really helped. My mother has Tachycardia and well though I believe that your health conditions are more environmental, habits as taught by your growing up.. And not so much a part of your DNA, still for those who would like to know YES I do have Heart Disease in my Family.
Why I Started Taking L-Arginine.
In March of 2007 a Friend of Mine was visiting family, when she returned from her trip she had a stories of a Product Called Cardio Cocktail. Her story was of Heightened Energy and simply feeling good. She felt so great in fact that as soon as she returned home she bought some Cardio Cocktail online. She was so excited about it that she gave me a bottle.
I started taking Cardio Cocktail because, well it was Free, and well I hate taking handfuls of vitamins, I never seem to feel the way I thought I would in vitamin boosting, never felt sure they were even dissolving fully plus I have read so much on the binders in vitamins and then there is the ingredients in tablet and in capsules to make them take their shape. I simply welcomed the idea of getting so many wonderful nutrients in one ounce of a liquid nutritional product, especially 5000 IU of Vitamin D3.
I did feel good, I did not notice anything to dramatic at first but I took it everyday, one ounce and about 3 months into it I realized that a lifetime of Surprise Lighting Rod Attacks was gone. In my "Stubborn by Nature" thought process I thought no way it has anything to do with taking 5 grams of Arginine. I had not changed my diet, exercise or lifestyle in any other way, so all was leading to the fact that this intake of nutrients was what stopped my surprise Angina Attacks. So I did what any smart gal would do, I Quit taking it, hey if it makes you feel good stop taking it Right?
So 3 weeks later, my SURPRISE attacks came back, I had my answer, it was definitely the Arginine Supplementation that was Stopping my Heart Pain, my Angina Attacks and my Chest Bruising feeling that followed. Now to be sure I started taking one ounce of 5 Grams of Liquid Arginine a day once again, I had mild attacks for the first week, then they just went away.
So in that happening and me being an Information Junkie I bought NO More Heart Disease by Dr. Louis Ignarro. I bought the Blood Pressure Cure by Robert E. Kowalski. I bought the Arginine Solution by Robert Fried, Woodson C. Merrell, and James Thorton.
I bought the Cardiovascular Cure by John P. Cooke M.D. - PhD. And I read them All in great detail. I also read tons of Scientific Reports online by Doctors, Researchers and Scientists. I have watched videos on L-Arginine by Dr. Joe Prendergast, Dr. Louis Ignarro and Elizabeth Owings, MD. And so began my love affair with the Amino Acid L-Arginine.
I have learned so much about this nutrient and that coupled with the angina pain gone that I am Sold on taking a Liquid Supplement of L-Arginine for the Rest of My Life. That is just me, I am not a Doctor or trying to give you medical advice of any kind. This is simply my story, my experience and why I Love Arginine.
Why Did I STOP Selling Cardio Cocktail
I Stopped Taking Cardio Cocktail once a new product was introduced to me. Why?
Well since I started taking Cardio Cocktail I have had a number of issues come up with me and Formor International and Issues with the Product Cardio Cocktail itself. This is just my personal story. Many have had good experiences with Formor International and still love Cardio Cocktail, however I am simply not one of those Happy Formor Distributors.
Since I first started taking their star product, Cardio Cocktail has changed, the formulation changed, the ingredients changed, changed the price and bottle of Cardio Cocktail, Changed the Pay Plan that Cardio Cocktail Distributors were receiving and I became even more discouraged.
I quit selling Cardio Cocktail due to a serious difference in Morals, Judgments, and Opinions of the boys at Formor International and Myself. Since then I have also had reason to believe that Cardio Cocktail does not really have a full 5 Grams of L-Arginine in it, however it did work for me. I also since learned of BeFlora the Sweetener in Cardio Cocktail has Ace-K in it and in research of Ace-K, I am simply uncomfortable putting what I deem as Toxins into my mouth with my nutritional intake. We get enough toxins in our food, our air... I don't want to take it with my vitamins. Again this is just me, my feelings based on my research and my experiences.
My MLM and Online Marketing Experience
with Cardio Cocktail by ForMor International.
You See I had decided that I Love Arginine and I wanted to Sell it, to offer a Liquid Arginine to the World and I wanted it to be this Cardio Cocktail that I had felt saved my Life. So My Friend and I went at online marketing with a fiery. We got on top of the search engines for the term "Cardio Cocktail" in 5 weeks after signing up to Sell this liquid arginine product called Cardio Cocktail.
We had several websites as did our upline, and our uplines upline. Once we got on top, we noticed we got a lot of internet traffic but no sales, then we noticed that the links we put up had changed. So we changed the links and they changed again. So we complained to the company, we were told that no one has websites, it is against the distributor policies, yet everyone did seem to have a website.
That was the beginning of the double standards I personally experienced at ForMor International. I really do feel that they took our sales and web traffic, pretended folks did not have websites so when they complained they could break out that policy and procedure and the distributor would then quiet down about it. I still feel Formor Corporate takes the webs traffic, the sales of it's distributors and does not give the distributor credit, based on what I have seen through our network, this is what I personally believe.. My Opinion based on my experience..
So this on top of discrimination, ingredient issues, and other differences in opinion and moral issues I Quit Formor International. Though the records show I was fired, because they would not let me quit. However, I did try and quit.
MLM's in General
I hate MLM Supposed Opportunities. I hate being pushed to sell, to sign people up, to BUG and Irritate my friends and family. The thing is this product is an MLM and this product works. I don't bug friends and family, they ask why I look so healthy, and seem to be so alive and well I tell them. Still I don't Sell them, and really I don't care if they buy it or not. Like I need my family pestering me to help them build a downline ( ok joking, sort of).
Anyway, I want you to know about, study, learn about the benefits of taking a liquid arginine supplement. Yes I want you to buy it from me, hey why not? And yes I then make money from this, however, big deal really. If you don't like it, if it does not really work then how would I be able to create any sort of business out of it, the One Time Buyer? Well I don't think so. I think you buy it and you will experience the miracle that I have with taking a Liquid Arginine Product and from this I believe you will look up videos, books, reports and learn so much and feel so great that you will want to keep buying it and then my Business is Making you Well and in that I can Feel Good.
Though my clients, my friends would express concern, I simply ignored the issue and the potential seriousness of those Angina Attacks. Looking back, well I would have been scared watching me as well. I mean there I was talking along and all of the sudden would grab my chest scream out, turn away a moment and then turn back as if nothing had happen.

What Led to me Selling Mega Cardio Health Plus
with the Good Life International?
During internal issues I was having with Formor and Cardio Cocktail, we were contacted by a Distributor at the Good Life International. Most likely because we are a large portion of the online presence for Liquid Arginine and at that time for Cardio Cocktail. We were told that the Good Life International was coming out with a 5 Gram Arginine product and that the 45-15 pay plan would be in affect. We spoke with the owner of the Company and decided that there was enough communication, openness and hope of long term integrity that we signed up.
Why I am Staying as a Distributor with
the Good Life International?
First of All, at this point I believe that the owners of Good Life International really do want to create a quality arginine product. At this point I believe that the Owners will have a full 5 Grams in their main arginine product, will keep 5000 IU of Vitamin D in the product and will keep the 15-45 pay plan. However, life and people change, so I will keep you abreast on any new developments. Thus far, I see Integrity in the Good Life International as a Company, as a Liquid Arginine Supplier.
After all I have thus far seen in MLM.. I know that no matter how big a company is, no matter how many distributors they have or how long they have been selling a product - YOU - ME are dispensable.
So I work with my Team in creating an online business that is about them more then the Company they are with, about Branding, Caring for, Empowering the people that I come in contact with. I want to see you experience the Miracle of Arginine in your life and NOT have to have the stress of worrying if a Company will turn on you or go belly up.
I want you to build your business on the love of, power of and benefit of Arginine. I want you to use the scientific proof, personal stories and real world information on arginine to build a business that empowers the people who trust you enough to sign up under you. I don't want you to gain their trust and then one day the company folds or turns on you, changes your links or changes your pay and there you are, you have LOST everything you built in one swish of someone else's pen.
My upline Leslie Turner and I, we don't work that way, we teach you to be your own business independent of a Company that makes arginine? Why? This way you're a strong business online selling a powerful liquid arginine supplement, a powerful Immune Builder and a powerful source of liquid Vitamin D3 regardless of what the Corporate head or their heirs do in the future. This way the Company has to stay good to you and they have to continue creating a good, strong product that works.
Or you will take your Arginine Business elsewhere, we all will as a Team. And right now, Good Life International, Leslie Turner, and Steven Smith are working with me, are working with you and I see no point in the future where that will change. So I am Sticking with the Good Life International and My Web Guru Leslie Turner. And I recommend you do the same.
