Question: Is it possible to get Liquid Power without the synthetic vitamins in the formula?  Thanks. Joel Haubenstock

Answer: Joel,

Liquid Power is Liquid Power. I know of no whole-food supplement that possesses as broad a range of phytonutrients and other nutraceuticals as Liquid Power.

Our Liquid Power is formulated for everyone. We have incorporated many individual’s suggestions into our final bend. It’s a tough job trying to satisfy and please everyone but we have tried. The reason that Liquid Power is not a 100% whole food supplement (it’s very close though) is that we wanted the average consumer to be able to afford it. A 100% whole food supplement of Liquid Powers caliber would be around $80.00-$90.00 a bottle and well out of reach of the targeted consumer.

I take it and so does my 4 year old daughter. I have over 950 different supplements in my practice to choose from and I personal think Liquid Power is a phenomenal product and the one I choose as my multi-formula.

If you have any suggestions or additional questions please feel free to e-mail me.

Sincerely,

Question: We have been taking both your Liquid Power and Goji Juice for several months now. My husband is a recent cancer (b-cell lymphoma) survivor and has heart disease. I cannot determine from the ingredient list how much COQ-10 is in the Liquid Power. I am wondering if we need to add that to our morning “cocktail”.

We love your products Dr. E. and are both feeling wonderful!

Thank you for your assistance with our question!

Answer: Peggy,

There is not what I would consider a therapeutic dose of CoQ10 in our Liquid Power (50mg’s). In my opinion a therapeutic dose starts at or above 100mg’s. If you are looking to increase your dosage, 100-120mg’s a day would be my starting point.

I am glad that you like the products. E-mail me any time.

Question:

During my change of life; menopause (I am 48) my skin started to break out. After much observation I have come to the conclusion it is mainly caused by oils, but I don’t understand why.
If I eat nuts, or use any kind of oil in my salad or drink coffee or tea, my skin breaks out. I used to practically live on tea and never had a single blemish; but now I break out if I drink even 1 cup of tea; the same with nuts and oils.
The question I have: Is it possible that if I took digestive enzymes it would help my body to process these oils? Does Lecithin contain oil? I’ve noticed that it also makes me break out.
I have noticed that after I drink coffee or tea my skin is oilier an hour or so later, so I’m guessing the oils are coming out my skin instead of being digested properly. I’m no expert, but I know what I see after consuming these things. Some people say there is no oil in tea, but I can see a film of oil floating on the top from time to time, so there must be oil of some kind in it.
Why the change and what can I do to fix it? I rarely drink coffee or tea, so giving them up isn’t a problem, but it would be nice to not have to worry about this if I did want to enjoy a cup of tea now and then.
I read recently that walnuts are even better for you than olive oil, so I don’t really want to give up these nuts or the lecithin since it’s so good for me; unless of course there’s no other alternative.
I am 5’3 & 105 lbs. I run the treadmill and alternate with Kathy Smith, Gilad and Jane Fonda, as well as the WestPoint Academy’s dumbbell exercises for strength training.
P.S. Do you know anything about skin care on the outside? If so, what in your opinion is the best facial cleanser & moisturizer to use? Judy Lindberg (author of Aging Without Growing Old) swears by Jojoba oil; your thoughts?
Thank you, Linda

Response:

Linda,

Lots of stuff here. I doubt an e-mail will do this justice because of the amount of text I would have to write.

Simplified version:

Lecithin contains choline which helps to metabolize oils. It’s a very good thing.

Digestive enzymes like our Super Power Enzymes help to metabolize fats/oils. Again, a very good thing.

Almonds are the best nuts (only alkaline nut). Walnuts contain the exact same fats as flax seeds (flax seed oil). Olive oil is a different type of fat all together.

I also own a Med Spa, so I deal with skin on a daily basis. The products I am listing are not cheap but are the best money can buy. They are medicines for the skin not just pretty smelling, froufrou products. They are anti-aging, wrinkle reducing/prevention, UVA & UVB blocking, collagen & elastin forming, gentle, natural, and what I and my wife use. I am 43 and I feel I have good looking skin, especially since I have spent my whole life in the sun, surfing, boating at the river, and in the desert racing motorcycles. (Picture)

C-E-Ferulic acid ($128.00), Niadyne ($85.00) and Ultimate Sun Block ($35.00), and Gentle Cleanser ($28.00). All products will last about 2 months or a little longer. (links were removed for the blog)

Acne is an internal problem that manifests itself on the outside of the body. It can be hormonal, digestive, and/or nutritionally related. Psyllium hush powder and probiotics are good for the colon. Eliminate all dairy products. 2 quarts of water daily, no caffeine, and pumpkin seeds (natural zinc) are all great for the skin.

Let me know how it goes.
