Purpose: To provide a comprehensive solution to the energy creation, support, and protection needs of your body at the cellular level.

MaxATP™ is a completely unique and refreshing clean energy blend powered by RiboCeine™ that features optimal amounts of proprietary ingredients to support an active lifestyle along with the energy and antioxidant protection needs of our bodies at the cellular level.

ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is the basic form of cellular energy for your body and is critically important to the life and health of every cell. As long as ATP is present in sufficient quantity, energy levels are maintained allowing cells and tissues to function at optimal levels. However, as we age, ATP production can become less efficient. The ATP process requires certain critical elements in order to be manufactured. Numerous vitamins and minerals support both ATP production as well as the process to release the energy stored in food as it goes through the metabolic process. ATP in our bodies is like the battery in a car. Everything in the car is dependent on the energy from the battery. When the battery power runs low, the lights in the car begin to dim and the performance of the car starts to suffer. However, when the battery power is re-charged or restored, performance returns to normal and the car functions exactly how it was designed. MaxATP provides the critical elements needed for proper ATP function and support. It includes optimal amounts of ribose (a precursor to ATP production), as well as other needed vitamins and nutrients to support natural ATP production in the cell. These fundamental building blocks of ATP ensure that your body is able to maintain optimal levels of energy for longer periods of time. Furthermore, MaxATP provides critical antioxidants needed to help protect the body from free radicals. MaxATP is powered by RiboCeine™, a breakthrough compound exclusive to Max International®, which effectively protects and delivers the fragile cysteine molecule to the cell. Cysteine is often in limited supply in the body, but is an essential component needed for the production of glutathione, the body’s master antioxidant. Glutathione is especially important due to its unique ability to protect the mitochondria within the cell, the exact location where ATP is manufactured. RiboCeine also delivers ribose, a natural compound that is critical in replenishing the body’s energy reserves.

Unique Attributes
MaxATP supports the body’s production of ATP in three (3) unique ways:
1- Fuels ATP Production*- provides the nutrients that fuel ATP production in our cells including optimal amounts of ribose. Ribose is one of the primary components needed for the production of ATP.
2- Replenishes energy and fights fatigue*- helps your body with the conversion of food into energy. Optimal amounts of ATP help you feel less fatigued.
3- Neutralizes free radicals*- only MaxATP can provide RiboCeine™ to assist your body in the production of glutathione which helps to neutralize the enormous amount of free radicals created during ATP production. MaxATP also provides other substances known to neutralize free radicals.

Product Benefits
• Fuels ATP production*
• Replenishes energy and fights fatigue*
• Neutralizes free radicals*
• Builds ATP in the heart and muscles*

Supporting Ingredients
Proprietary Blend:
Ribose – an essential component in the natural creation of ATP. Your body cannot create ATP without it.
N-acetyl -L-carnitine – increases the rate at which the liver oxidizes fat therefore increasing the amount of energy available. Carnitine shuttles long chain fatty acids from the liver into the mitochondria to be metabolized.
RiboCeine™ – an exclusive product comprised of ribose and cysteine, RiboCeine effectively passes through the digestive tract and delivers the fragile cysteine molecule to the cell, enabling efficient, natural production of glutathione. The ribose compound in RiboCeine is also used by the cell as an essential component to ATP production, your body’s source of energy. This allows your body to essentially manufacture glutathione “on demand” so it is ready to defend itself from free radical damage when it needs it most.
Panax Ginseng – Panax Ginseng is ginseng from Asia and is a known adaptogen to support an increased flow of steady energy throughout the day.
Green Tea Extract – is known to have high antioxidant activity and together with RiboCeine, promotes a critical step in the production of glutathione. It also provides the natural source of caffeine which acts as a natural metabolic enhancer and supports mental alertness.
Rhodiola Rosea – an adaptogen shown to reduce symptoms of fatigue and improve mental performance.
Quercetin – a flavonoid antioxidant known to support energy levels.
CoQ10 – a powerful endogenous (made naturally in the body) antioxidant that resides in the mitochondria and is a vital component of the energy producing process of ATP. It helps to eliminate harmful free radicals produced during the ATP process.

Clean Cellular Energy1
Supporting Ingredients:
B Vitamins (thiamine, riboflavin, niacin, pantothenic acid, pyridoxine, biotin, folic acid, cyancobalamin) – support various enzymes that help convert food to energy. B Vitamins serve as coenzymes that assist in specific metabolic processes to break down fats, amino acids and carbohydrates for energy.
Magnesium – essential in all energy dependent reactions that include the use of ATP energy. It serves as a catalyst in the creation of ATP from ADP. It is also a catalyst when ATP is used for energy by helping in the hydrolysis of ATP (the act of releasing the energy stored in the high energy phosphate bond).
Copper – plays an important role supporting the synthesis of ATP in the mitochondria, or the part of the cell responsible for energy production.
Chromium – an essential trace element that is needed for the metabolism of energy. Chromium works with insulin and assists cells to uptake glucose and release energy.

FAQs
What is ATP?
A- ATP, or adenosine triphosphate, is your body’s most basic form of energy. ATP is produced in every cell and is the means by which our cells, organs, and by extension, our bodies are powered. ATP needs many different compounds or elements to be produced. MaxATP was designed with your body’s energy needs in mind and provides a comprehensive list of elements needed for ATP production which helps to provide a more sustained and consistent supply of cellular energy.

How is this energy drink different from others on the market?
A- MaxATP is focused more on providing your body with the elements it needs to produce sustained and consistent energy at the cellular level. Only MaxATP can provide RiboCeine™ which provides your body with the ribose it needs for ATP production and the cysteine it needs to support glutathione production to neutralize free radicals.

How does MaxATP support glutathione production in the body?
A- MaxATP features RiboCeine™, which effectively protects and delivers cysteine to the cell, enabling your body to produce glutathione more efficiently. Cysteine is a critical element needed to produce glutathione and is often in short supply in the body. Since it is broken down so easily during digestion, RiboCeine ensures that cysteine reaches the cell intact—available for glutathione production.

Can I take this energy drink with MaxGXL and Max N-Fuze?
A- MaxATP is designed to work synergistically with MaxGXL and Max N-Fuze and can be taken together.

Is this product based on the new science recently acquired by Max International?
A- Yes. MaxATP features RiboCeine™ a proprietary and patent-pending compound developed by Dr. Herbert Nagasawa after nearly 25 years of research.

What does the “3” in MaxATP3 stand for?
A- MaxATP supports your body’s energy needs in three (3) unique ways:
1- Fuels ATP production
2- Replenishes energy and fights fatigue
3- Neutralizes free radicals

What is a flavanoid antioxidant?
A- Flavonoids are a large class of phytochemicals, also called polyphenols that are known to have health benefits due to their antioxidant activity. Anthocyanins, the pigments in colored fruits and vegetables are part of the flavonoid family.

What is an adaptogen?
A- Adaptogens are derived from herbs that are considered to increase the body’s ability to cope with stress, anxiety and fatigue. They are also considered to enhance performance and endurance.

But I have to admit that there is so much we need to be aware of in order to gain overall wellness in body, mind and spirit. Awareness about positive thoughts vs negative thoughts . . . → Read More: Wellness Challenges and What Do YOU Do About Them?]]> I have had and continue to have great experiences with wellness. Wellness is a passion of mine and I pursue it with great enthusiasm.

But I have to admit that there is so much we need to be aware of in order to gain overall wellness in body, mind and spirit. Awareness about positive thoughts vs negative thoughts are dynamite. It is an area that I must work and be more aware of on a daily basis. I was visiting my sister recently and she was so excited to tell me about a “water” analysis by an expert showing how “good” vs “bad” thoughts can change water dramatically and significantly. I had heard about this before and seen pictures but it was again amazing to be reminded that our bodies are made up of over 70% of water. Thus, “positive” thoughts can and do significantly change our bodies at the water levels. Whew…..what a dramatic and magnificent difference we can make to our WELLNESS at this level.

Another huge area in the body/mind/spirit realm is toxins in the forms of pollution, household chemical cleaners, pesticides, medicinal toxins from prescriptions, high metal toxicity, etc., etc. I firmly believe that we must be vigilant in this area and constantly help our body rid itself of these horrific toxins on a constant basis. I personally do quite a bit on a daily basis in this area, taking a science-based product with double blind, placebo-controlled, crossover clinical studies proven to eliminate toxins from the body in a natural way. I utilize a glutathione accelerator (not glutathione supplement) in order for my body to be able to manufacture its own glutathione at the cellular level in every cell in my body. You can google glutathione to learn how critical this nutritent is in our body and critically significant to our wellness being. It is so vital that you are dead without it; life cannot happen without it. You are born with it but it starts declining at the age of 20 in our bodies and very quickly decreases to the point where our bodies are no longer able to function the way they were designed to. Putting glutathione levels back into our body cells helps with greater well being and slows down the aging process.

I also utilize a whole, live foods supplement that is processed in such a way as to keep excessive heat out of the manufacturing so that the nutrients are preserved. It is an amazing product with organic fruit blends, vegetable blends, probiotic blends, enzyme blends, etc. and I know without a doubt that I am receiving what my body/mind/spirit needs on a daily basis.

I am on a constant spiritual journey because I believe that if I do not continue to learn and be open to learning….then I might as well not be in this life. Life is a journey. And if we pay attention to our wellness at the body/mind/spirit levels, then we will be more at peace with joy in our life.

What are your thoughts on Wellness and what do you do for yourself in this area?

Despite the lack of one parental figure in the . . . → Read More: Testimonial Article – Autism and Glutathione!]]> Born on February 1, 1999 in Forest Hills, New York, Rachelle (Chelley) was welcomed into the world by her mother Marie, her sister Christine, and her maternal grandparents Maxime and Solanges Leger. Chelley’s father had abandoned the family when her mother was carrying her at only three months.

Despite the lack of one parental figure in the home, Chelley knew no sadness or hardship, for she was surrounded by love. There was never a dull moment in the Philippe household. Chelley’s laughter could be heard throughout the house, as well as odd sounds that would reveal her mischievous actions from curious ventures. Her astounding beauty and charm was mesmerizing.

When Chelley looked at you with her big bold dark eyes, you had no choice but to submit. Accompanied with her shimmering smile which sealed the deal, you were under her spell…so to speak. She was a happy and healthy child. Chelley was rarely sick, always full of life and developing normally.

On February 4, 2000, three days after her first birthday, Chelley received four immunizations at the Pediatrician’s office. It wasn’t long after that her mother noticed a change in Chelley’s overall demeanor. She no longer displayed an interactive role in playing. She no longer looked at people with her peering eyes. At the age of one, she should have been able to eat some solid foods, but when trying only gagged. Her speech, though premature, had turned into babbling obscure sounds, almost appearing to be contra-verbalization. At age one she was also not walking. The once interactive child became introverted, only interested in objects of color or stimulation. Songs became an addictive passion for her wanting to view programs such as Sesame Street and Barney which combined music and motion. People were no longer of interest to Rachelle.

It was not until the age of eighteen months and after pressure from her mother, that Chelley was finally evaluated by a Neurologist, and a Psychologist who reluctantly issued the diagnosis of Autism. To say the least, devastation was an understatement. Prior to this diagnosis, the family had planned on moving to Charlotte, North Carolina.

The move was melancholy. The family struggled to acquaint themselves in their new location as well as educate themselves in providing the best care for Chelley. Tragedy hit again on October 8, 2002, when Chelley’s maternal grandmother suddenly collapsed into cardiac arrest. The loss depleted the family of retirement income and
benefits, a caretaker for Chelley, the homemaker and the matriarch.

Soon after her grandmother’s passing, Chelley’s mother tirelessly researched to gain an understanding of this disease and to discover a means to make life more normal for everyone. Pulling together, Chelley’s mother took on another job, and adjustments were made in lifestyle to accommodate an in-home therapy program after Chelley had significantly regressed in a classroom setting. God’s favor led her mother to meeting proactive and knowledgeable parents affected by Autism, and also doctors practicing groundbreaking treatments for Autism. A specific diet full of minerals, vitamins and organic foods were also found to be helpful to Chelley’s health and behavior. These new findings were beneficial, but the results were slow coming. Secondly, none of these sources were acknowledged or accepted by any insurance company. The average cost was approximately $80,000 a year.

Concessions were made by the family in order to offer the glimmer of hope Chelley needed to one day become a viable member of society. Marie reached out to Chelley’s extended family and close friends for help, who willingly and selflessly supported the dream as much as financially possible during difficult times. Some local advocate organizations came through as well by providing nourishment, safety equipment, respite funding, and needed supplies. But as cutbacks were experienced by everyone after the September 11th 2001’s terrorist incident, all financial assistance to Chelley came to a halt, causing her to become an economic casualty/victim.

Marie was able to do what she could for Chelley, but savings were depleted, credit cards were maxed out, and a third job added. Although Chelley had significantly regained development and cognitive skills, everything had to come to a halt due to insufficient finances.

Years went by, and Chelley made limited progress. She was pretty much non-verbal, understood few commands, and hardly did anything independently at school. School was especially uneventful.

But God is faithful. On May 19th 2009, Captain Denise Blankenship, a friend of the family, and a strong believer in Chelley’s total healing, introduced Marie to a product by the name of MAXGXL. Denise was convinced that this would help Chelley improve.

Having nothing to lose, Marie started the product on Chelley that very night. The second dosage was given the morning of May 20th. Subsequent to her first dose, Chelley was given a standard of 2x-4x a day. Without exaggerating, the following occurred:
• May 20th (day 2) – Chelley’s teacher reported Chelley accomplishing several tasks (four) independently
(when on average she would accomplish zero independently and on a good day, possibly two tasks independently). In addition to that, for the FIRST time in the five years Chelley attended school, she came home with a star. The note on the back of the star stated: “for good counting & imitating in music with friends: We also noticed a calming effect from her usual rambunctious behavior.
• May 21st (day 3) – Chelley accomplished three tasks independently. Also on this day, we had taken Chelley out in the community to the popular event “Speed Street”. Two other children accompanied Chelley. At the end of the day, Chelley appropriately said on her own “good bye” to the children.
• May 25th (day 7) – Chelley accomplished three tasks independently, and a comment from her teacher “Good day, lots of good work”. Also at home, Chelley properly responded for the first time to the commands “turn off the light” and “get your toothbrush”.
• May 26th (day – Five tasks accomplished independently at school, with a note from her teacher “Good work – she is doing so many of her tasks independently lately, even packing and unpacking her backpack”.
• May 28th (day 10) – Chelley accomplished three tasks independently with a comment from her teacher “Working hard lately, lots of tasks independently”.
• May 29th (day 11) – Four tasks independently
• June 1st (day 14) – Four tasks independently
• June 2nd (day 15) – Four tasks independently
• June 3rd (day 16) – Note from teacher stated “Did a 100’s chart on computer independently:
• June 9th (day 22) – Basically the end of the school year, Chelley accomplished SIX tasks independently.

These are just a few things to mention for now. But since that time, Chelley has also been able to communicate when she needs to go to the bathroom and when she is hungry; situations which were pretty much guess work for us in the past. There have been so many milestones that there are too many to list. Chelley’s family is once
again encouraged and confident that Chelley, now the age of ten, has a chance for a full recovery.

MAXGXL is inexpensive, and yet extremely effective, and fast producing. I am so grateful to Denise for having faith in this product and for being generous in sharing it with us. My wish is for other families with special needs children get a hold of this product. It will be life changing.
