Best Supplements

Restored from the Empower Network archive (2011–2017), lightly edited to meet our current advertising standards. Views are the original author’s.

What are the Best Supplements?

Well, before going any further, we need to ask ourselves why we need supplements and what purpose they will serve us individually.

When I search best supplements online, most of the results are for products suitable for men wishing to body build.

My purpose in writing this post is to introduce you to a revolutionary new way of choosing and buying the best supplements for you at your particular point in life.

Maybe you are like I was a few short months ago, pooh poohing all the hype around supplements and vitamins. I used to say that all we needed to do was eat better.

That was until I read books by Ray Kurzweil, especially The Singularity Is Near: When Humans Transcend Biology written  in 2005.

Who is Ray Kurzweil and What does he have to do with Best Supplements?

Ray talks about the way knowledge and information is expanding exponentially, that is, speeding up dramatically. So fast in fact that we can’t hope to keep up with it with our tiny minds!

We can all see this in our everyday lives – cars that can drive themselves, phone answering services that can ask questions and take action depending on our replies, remote GPS controlled systems designed by Google for integrating data worldwide and so on.

One area that is benefiting from this exponential explosion of information technology is health. Every day we see new discoveries, especially in the field of genetics.

In his books, Ray Kurzweil talks about his desire to live long enough to benefit from all the massive advances in human health that are coming in the next 10 to 30 years..

Read here about Ray’s background and how he researched and cured his own diabetes over 20 years ago.

Ray has partnered with a well-known USA MD, Terry Grossman.

Terry is the author of The Baby Boomers’ Guide to Living Forever.

The topic of Baby Boomers and their lifestyle is close to my heart, being one myself.

Terry is the founder and medical director of Grossman Wellness Center in Denver, Colorado, a leading longevity clinic. He ia also coauthor with Ray of two books, Fantastic Voyage and TRANSCEND: Nine Steps to Living Well Forever

Ray and Terry have subsequently worked together in developing  a business, both online and off, selling the best supplements for anyone of any age or background.

Read this section of their website to understand the theory and philosophy behind their wellness products including best supplements for everyone.

What Best Supplements are Available?

There are many choices on Ray and Terry’s website. Probably the best place to start is taking the online questionnaire based on the
TRANSCEND Program – Nine Steps to Living Well Forever.

I filled out the questionnaire at RayandTerry website and received the monthly container you can see in my video above. Each individually wrapped packet inside contains 25 best supplements in five pills total; 3 of Total Care Daily Formula and one each of EPA/DHA Mega 420/280 (fish oil) and Calcium Magnesium.
