What are the ingredients in your lecithin? – 100% Non-GMO Soy Lecithin Granules
Does your lecithin contain any liquid lecithin or any soy flour? -  No Other Ingredients

What is the percentage of Phosphatidylcholine, Phosphatidylinositol, Phosphatidylethanolamine, Phosphorus and Potassium per serving: (below are approximate values)
Phosphatidylcholine (2,300 mg)
Phosphatidylinositol (1,400 mg)
Phosphatidylethanolamine (2,100mg)
Phosphorus (300mg)
Potassium (120mg)

Phosphatidyleanolamine (The spelling is wrong here and on Ferns Lecithin ingredient page.  Above is correct spelling). Based on this, I am assuming you are comparing ours to theirs.  Ferns is not a “Non-GMO” product.  As far as I am concerned, this is the main point in picking a lecithin.  Genetically Modified Organisms, crops and the products made from them contain herbicide (RoundUp) and pesticide residues and other nasty ingredients.  I would never ingest it or give it to my patients or family.

Do they contain any triglycerides, protein or calcium? -  No

Dear Dr. Ettinger,

Thank you so much for the previous info on the lecithin granules from CAOH.  My husband and I are now taking your product.

Q: I am wondering if soy isoflavones are naturally in lecithin granules, as I have been taking them for awhile and do not want to double up.

Thank you very much.

Helen,

You are welcome.

A: Lecithin does not contain isoflavones so please continue with the product you were previously taking.

E-mail me any time.

Sincerely,

100% Non-GMO lecithin – a vegan product.

I have been using your products for the last 6 mo. and have been very happy with them.
I currently take 1 scoop of your protein powder, 1 oz of Acai and 1 oz of goji in a soy/rice milk shake every morning. I’m always looking to try and experiment with new things.

I’m going to be placing another order and would appreciate your product recommendations. I’m 45, very fit, active and plan on staying that way,…LOL

I’m currently interested in:

• L-Tryptophan

• Whey Protein Powder

• Goji Fusion OR Absolute Goji

• ACAI Max OR Absolute Acai Powder

• Liquid Power

1. Would all of the above be recommended or would the benefits of some be found in the others and then they would overlap eliminating the need for all of them?

2. Would you have any other recommendations?

3. How would you recommend taking the supplements?

Thank you in advance for your response.

Tom

Answer Tom,

I am almost 44 and have the same goals. This is what I do in the morning. It’s a little extreme but I want to live to 100, go to bed with a smile on my face and just not wake-up the next day, never having to see any doctor and not on medications. You can also check out my practice website here
www.advancedhealing.com

From caoh.com* I take daily:

• 1 scoop whey protein*

• 2 scoops Absolute Acai*

• 1 ounce Liquid Power*

• 1 tblsp liquid flax seed oil

• 1 tblsp wheat germ oil

• 1 tsp molecularly distilled fish oil

• 1 heaping tblsp Ultra Supreme Greens*

• Frozen strawberries and blueberries

And if I need a little immune boost I will add 1 ounce of TheraAloe*.

Reply Dr. E,

Thank you for your reply.

I have a couple more questions:

1. How do you feel about L-Tryptophan? What kind of people would you recommend this for? I know way back they took it off the market due to some unfortunate incidents.

2. ACAI Max OR Absolute Acai Powder? Why choose one over the other?

3. Taking the list below, how beneficial would adding supreme greens be?

• Whey Protein Powder

• Goji Fusion OR Absolute Goji

• ACAI Max OR Absolute Acai Powder

• Liquid Power

• 10 oz soy milk

• 4 oz rice milk

• 1tbl flaxseed oil

Tom,

1. How do you feel about L-Tryptophan? What kind of people would you recommend this for? I know way back they took it off the market due to some unfortunate incidents. It was as still is totally safe. FDA made a big mistake now it’s fixed. 3 before bed is the recommended dose and can be taken by most adults.

2. ACAI Max OR Absolute Acai Powder? Why choose one over the other? Absolute Acai, because it’s pure 100% acai goodness.

3. Taking the list below, how beneficial would adding supreme greens be? Very beneficial.

• Whey Protein Powder
• Goji Fusion OR Absolute Goji
• ACAI Max OR Absolute Acai Powder
• Liquid Power
• 10 oz soy milk – Would use water, too many sugar calories and not much nutritional benefit.
• 4 oz rice milk – Would use water, too many sugar calories and not much nutritional benefit.
• 1tbl flaxseed oil

Thanks,
Greg

Answer: Greg,

Thanks for the questions. Probiotics are killed by the HCl in the stomach. The preferred method of delivery is for the capsule to be enteric coated, that way it bypasses digestion in the stomach and releases the contents into the small intestine. Our formula Probiotic Flora-Health is enteric coated, contains multiple probiotic strains, and has FOS which is a food source for the probiotic strains. It’s the perfect formula.

Lecithin derived from soy does not contain phyto-estrogens. The PE’s are 99.9% eliminated with the protein, during processing, so no worries.

I hope this helps.

I was hoping if you could tell me is goji juice rich in phyto-estrogens?

Thanks for your help

Frida C.

A: Dear Frida,

I am sorry but it isn’t. Soy is high in phyto-estrogens and there are many soy isoflavone products on the market.

Sincerely,

Dr. E

Response Back

Dear Doctor.

I wanted to sincerely thank you for your quick response to my question. You see, I had purchased a bottle from the health food store, and then I asked my specialist if it ok for me to drink it, as I am taking Arimidex for an estrogen positive breast cancer I had. She advised me NOT to take anything that would be rich in phtyo-estrogens, (as she was not sure if it was) so, naturally I ceased taking it, and have been emailing so many different people via the Internet, through the Lifestream manufacturers, but not one person has replied to me.

Thankfully I found your website and thought I would try to email you and ask you, and I am truly thankful for your quick response, the very same day!!

This shows such professionalism to me……and I wish more people would be so prompt in answering customer’s queries.

So, I just started taking it again. …..now that you have told me that it does not contain phyto-estrogens……..

Thank you sincerely for your help

Regards

Frida C.
