WHAT IS AMALAKI (om-a-lock-ie)?

The story goes that CEO, Bill Farley had an interest in bringing a new product to the masses & was extremely interested in the nutrition industry, as health & wellness is an integral aspect of his life. With this interest, he solicited advice from his long-time friend, Dr. Deepak Chopra, known worldwide for his knowledge & wisdom of Ayurveda & teachings on living in abundance. Bill Farley asked Dr. Chopra if there was one thing, one ingredient, fruit, herb or botanical that the world should know about. Dr. Chopra informed Mr. Farley that is was AMALAKI.


AMALAKI is the Sanskrit word for the Indian Gooseberry. It has been called "the Great Rejuvenator," "the Nurse," and "the Fruit of Immortality." It is the core ingredient to the practice of Ayurveda, which is a medicinal science based in India dating back 5000 years. Ayurveda, known as "the Science of Life," is a way of living where an individual is in perfect harmony with every aspect of their life, physically, mentally, emotionally, & spiritually.

Amalaki is grown at the base of the Himalayan mountain range where there is the cleanest air, water & soil. The fruit is wildcrafted, grown & harvested according to natural Ayurvedic guidelines in order to maximize the fruit's potential.
Benefits of Amalaki are as follows:
* increases vitality & energy
* acts as natural anti-inflammatory
* regulates blood sugars
* promotes healthier heart function
* soothes/protects tissues of the digestive tract; good for gastritis, colitis, ulcers, heartburn & acid reflux
* detoxifies body by purifying blood & supporting healthy regular elimination
* promotes clarity of mind
* metabolic enhancer
* supports healthy cholesterol
* reduces wrinkles
* one of the richest sources of Vitamin C in the world
* fights tuberculosis & chronic cough as well as allergies & childhood asthma
* increases red blood cell count & blood circulation
* cleanses mouth & strengthens teeth
* nourishes the bones
* improves eyesight
* instills a sense of calmness & suppresses mental tension

Amalaki is the core ingredient in Zrii. It is synergistically blended with six other herbs & botanicals to bring out the fullest potency of each ingredient. The other ingredients of Zrii are: ginger, jujube, schizandra, haritaki, turmeric, & tulsi. Zrii is an all-natural product, formulated with Ayurvedic guidelines, earning the endorsement of the Chopra Center for Wellbeing.

The formulators of Zrii have this to say about amalaki:

"Amalaki is an interesting fruit because we now see modern science substantiating ancient wisdom. We see amalaki being widely studied in modern nutritional science." - Dr. Thomas Yarema

"Science is beginning to substantiate what the ancients have known for centuries." - Ayurvedic Practitioner Daniel Rhoda, DAS

"Amalaki is meant for rebuilding & restructuring the fabric of the human body & consciousness. Very few foods are good for the mind & body & spirit. Amalaki summarizes all three of these realms of human existence." - Dr. Suhas Kshirsagar

My Zrii Experience

I have an unbelievable history with my doctors! My earliest recollection is from my high school days. I was in the doctor's office & diagnosed with walking pneumonia. I remember the doctor saying [to my mother] "It's a good thing you got her in here today, her lungs are filled with fluid, one more day & they could have collapsed." That sort of thing sticks with you.

I left for college and was constantly sick. In and out of the campus infirmary for strep throat, tonscillitis, bronchitis, sinusitis, etc. Finally, in my 2nd year, I saw my family doctor. He literally took a look at my throat for 2 seconds & said, "We don't usually do this at your age [18], but when the tonscills look like that & are a consistent problem, we take them out." So, the tonscillectomy ensued but I still got sick.

It seemed I was diagnosed with a sinus infection every other month & I got bronchitis every time the wind changed direction. Going to my doctor was as frequent for me as having to go to the grocery store. I would go to the doctor & leave with a prescription for an antibiotic. Off I'd go until the next time, just a few weeks away. "See you soon!"

Fast foward a few years, I have children of my own. Added to the mix is the diagnosis of postpartum depression in 2005 & a prescription for antidepressants! Temporary relief for a while, but a year later, my stress levels were high, my emotions were raw & I was having a hard time coping with life in general. My antidepressant was changed to something new. After a while, it was changed again, but this time, I was supposed to wean off of one while starting another. The combination of the 2 seem to work & keep me sane, so the doctor recommended remaining on the combination of the 2 every single day.

I was still in and out of the doctor's office every few weeks, uncontrollable coughing, congestion, & the diagnosis was: walking pneumonia, CHRONIC bronchitis & sinus infection. I went for a CT Scan of my sinuses - nothing. I had an x-ray of my chest - nothing. Antibiotic after antibiotic after antibiotic & cough suppressent, elixir, etc.

The older I got, the more went wrong. I started having problems for my gynecologist: constant breakthrough bleeding. My doctor thought it was stress throwing my body off, but it never stopped! 7 straight weeks, UGH!! I was prescribed birth control pills. They didn't work. I was then prescribed some kind of hormone pill! It apparently didn't matter that I frequented the gym, watched what I ate & took vitamins, I was seeing my doctors too often for my liking!

One day in March of this year, I was standing at my kitchen counter. All of a sudden what I saw was very alarming. There were 5 bottles of medication: 2 antidepressants, 1 antibiotic, 1 hormonal medication, 1 cough suppressant syrup. I AM IN MY 30's!!!! It occurred to me that continuing along this path could very well cause me to be an elderly person with ten vials of medication each month. That is not the life I want to lead! I realized that my entire life, I popped pills - not narcotics of any kind - but Motrin, Advil, Aleve, Tylenol, prescription after prescription. For a headache, I popped a pill, for a cramp, I popped a pill. I had been pumping my body full of this stuff for most of my life! I thought to myself "there must be something better. A healthier way to live."

I started checking around on liquid nutritionals, remembering the few I tasted over the years & they were horrible, so it never occurred to me to start drinking any. At this point, I thought that horrible taste for better health was a good trade off.

I was introduced to Zrii by a critical care nurse who has since become a very good friend & mentor. The day I started drinking Zrii, I was on my 2 antidepressants, 1 hormonal medication, 1 cough suppressant & my THIRD CONSECUTIVE ROUND OF ANTIBIOTICS for bronchitis. Antibiotics are prescribed for 10 days; being on the third round of antibiotics is days 21-30, I was on the 24th day in a row of taking the medication & this round was a double dose of the second round. I stopped taking the antibiotic & the cough suppressant that day. I faithfully drank Zrii in the morning & in the afternoon, still taking my antidepressants & my hormone medication.

On the 4th day of drinking Zrii, my congestion was clearing up & my cough had subsided. By day 7, you would never have known I was so sick for such a period of time. Since then, I HAVE NOT SEEN MY DOCTOR - NOT ONE TIME! I have not taken any cough medication, antibiotics or cold medicine!!! I HAVE NOT BEEN SICK!

Furthermore, the hormone medication never worked & my doctor recommended just letting it go until my system reset itself! It did without medication - imagine that - the bleeding stopped & my cycles became regular again!

I continued my research on the benefits of each of the ingredients of Zrii. I found out that the ingredients were beneficial for skin irritations such as eczema & psoriasis! Psoriasis runs in my family & when I was younger, I had it on my scalp line, my knees, my legs, in my ears, my elbows, & behind my ears. I was told it would never go away. Fortunately somehow, it did after a period of time except for a patch on my left elbow. By week 4 of drinking Zrii, that patch was completely gone! Unbelievable!!!

While drinking Zrii, I started sleeping more soundly, was able to think more clearly, had much more energy. My workouts were great! I was able to run on the treadmill farther & easier. I found I was more organized & getting so much more accomplished!!I stopped needing a power nap in the middle of the afternoon while my boys slept.

HERE'S THE KICKER - I even stopped taking my antidepressants 2.5 months ago! After over 3 years of being on those medications, I AM NOT TAKING THEM ANYMORE!

NO ANTIDEPRESSANTS, NO ANTIBIOTICS, NO COUGH SYRUPS, NO PILLS AT ALL!

Zrii is truly an amazing juice. It is an ALL NATURAL product, giving your body the vitamins & nutrients it needs to be healthy. Zrii is beneficial on ALL of your systems, not just one particular part of your body & it tastes great! It's absolutely delicious! Based on Ayurveda, Zrii is formulated to bring your mind, body & spirit into balance. Once in balance, you will experience an abundance of health like never before. In my heart, I knew there had to be a healthier way of living, & I found it with Zrii!
