Amazon Herb Company review:
John Easterling, rainforest herbs
and more
by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger
www.NewsTarget.com
In this
report, I'm going to share with you
why I'm so excited about the Amazon
Herb Company and what it means for
you, your health, our community, and
our planet. Recently I had the honor
of attending a live presentation by
Amazon John, also known as John
Easterling, the founder of the
Amazon Herb Company. I've been
watching this company for some time,
reading their materials and
interviewing a few of their
distributors, but I've wanted to
meet the founder and find out what
kind of character and energy he
brings to the equation.
Here's why this is important (and
it's also why I am now such a strong
advocate of the, even though I'm in
no way affiliated with it). When we
consume nutritional supplements,
we're actually consuming more than
the chemical constituents found in
those supplements. Foods are more
than just the sum of their parts.
Foods actually carry a homeopathic
element. This element is present in
all foods, herbs, supplements or
anything you ingest into your body.
It is imprinted onto those foods and
supplements by the people who come
into contact with them during
harvesting, production and
marketing. And so it is the
intention, mindset and character of
these individuals that become
imprinted in these products that we
ultimately absorb into the cells of
our body. Therefore, if we consume
nutritional supplements that are
manufactured by companies with
nothing more than a profit motive,
then we absorb the energy of greed
(along with the chemical
constituents of those nutritional
supplements).
In contrast, if you take an herb
that has grown in its native natural
environment, that has been harvested
with care and with sacred intention
by those who consider that land to
be their home and by people who
impart positive intentions onto that
plant, and then if that plant is
prayed over and imprinted with even
more positive intention, and then
finally packaged and marketed by a
company that also has positive
intentions because of the character
of its founder, then you have a very
different nutritional supplement
than the supplement from the greedy
company, even if these two
supplements contain the exact same
chemical constituents. There's a lot
more to supplements than just what's
listed on the label.
The science
behind vibrational nutrition
If you're interested in the science
behind this, take a look at a book
called, "The Hidden Messages in
Water," which discusses the ability
of intention and emotion to alter
the crystalline shape of frozen
water crystals as photographed under
a microscope. This book, authored by
Japanese researcher Masaru Emoto,
shows photographs of various water
crystals after having been exposed
to different emotions. As the book
demonstrates, you can make water
look chaotic and dysfunctional by
imprinting it with the emotions of
hate, greed, anger, or fear. In a
similar way, you can make water take
on a structure of organization,
symmetry, and balance by imprinting
it with emotions such as compassion
or love. And it is indeed these
emotions that are imprinted into the
Amazon Herb products.
(Another great book on the subject
of homeopathy is, "The Memory of
Water: Homeopathy and the Battle of
Ideas in the New Science" by Michel
Schiff. It describes how
conventional medicine has pulled out
all the stops to discredit
homeopathy through deceit and
distortion rather than facing up to
the hard science that quite solidly
proves homeopathy to be a real
phenomenon.)
A company leader with the right
intention
What I saw recently, in watching
John Easterling, demonstrated to me
beyond any doubt that these
positive, healing intentions are
pursued and shared by the founder of
the Amazon Herb Company. That's
quite remarkable, because I've seen
other companies (especially those
who use a word-of-mouth distribution
model) get lost in the quest for
material gain. All too often, some
organizations are only about making
a buck and growing a bigger
organization in order to generate
more revenues.
That's the wrong mindset to be
ingesting into your body. Greed is a
derivative of fear, and fear creates
contraction and restriction. Fear
causes your body to tense up and
restrict its natural flow, and
that's part of the cause of a lot of
disease we see today. Many diseases
are actually the result of
stagnation from an energetic point
of view. When things aren't moving
correctly, whether it's lymph fluid,
or your blood, or energy through
your nervous system, then you are
experiencing disease. But when
things are moving well, you're
experiencing a state of health. And
what causes things to move?
Openness, sharing, love, compassion.
These kinds of intentions. And these
are the emotions that are imprinted
in the Amazon Herb products.
So, yes, I'm an advocate of the
Amazon Herb Company. But not for the
reasons you might have supposed.
It's not that they have a great
product line, even though they do.
It's not that the company is doing a
lot of good things for the
rainforest, even though that's also
true and that's a very important
part of their success equation. But
I think the primary reason is
because it creates a product that
has energetic qualities that far
surpass any other commercially
available nutritional supplement
I've ever encountered. What that
means is that these products have
the ability to alter the way your
body metabolizes energy.
Your body
is made of energy
If all of this begins to sound a
little bit New-Agey, don't fret,
it's actually easy to understand
from a technical point of view as
well. That's because your entire
body is nothing but vibrating
energy. In fact, if you ask any
physicist, he or she will tell you
that even the apparent mass in your
body is nothing more than
probability waves of orbiting
electrons that actually have no
particles whatsoever. From a
technical point of view, your body
is 99.999% empty space. There's
almost nothing really there!
We also know that homeopathy is very
real; this has been scientifically
proven through randomized,
double-blind placebo-controlled
studies, and it has been repeated
again and again in various trials
conducted on populations around the
world. (Recent anti-homeopathy
headlines you may have seen in the
news were based on a meta-study that
cherry-picked unsuccessful
homeopathic clinical trials while
ignoring successful ones.)
Energetic
shifts are accelerated by Amazon
Herbs
The implications of all of this are
immense. I believe this helps
explain why so many people who are
using the Amazon Herb products
describe the shifts in their health
being not just physical but also
emotional and energetic in nature.
You hear this time and time again if
you actually sit down and listen to
the people who are using the Amazon
Herb products. They will tell you,
yes, their aches and pains vanished,
and, yes, they were able to overcome
chronic disease with these herbs,
but more importantly they will
describe how their emotions changed.
Suddenly they began to feel happy or
they felt calm for the first time in
years, or they felt grounded and in
touch with themselves. These are the
kinds of things you hear from people
that have undergone an energetic
shift, not just a biochemical shift.
Thus, it all makes sense, because
that's the way in which these herbs
are harvested, and that's the
intention being imprinted throughout
the Amazon Herb organization.
I'm a fairly good judge of
character. As an owner of a software
company, I've dealt with a lot of
people over the years. I've also
done a fair amount of work in
vibrational medicine, healing
through intention, Reiki and so on.
I've also learned to listen to my
intuition. So I have a fairly good
sense of what dominant intentions
people are carrying around when I
have the chance to observe them and
interact with them. One of the most
obvious negative energetic postures
I notice in people from the
conventional medical community is
their lack of humility. All too
often, their egos get in the way and
they carry a belief that they are
the most intelligent people in the
world, therefore they're the only
people qualified to talk about
anything related to health.
Sadly, this is a dominant mindset in
the conventional medical community,
and it's one of the first things I
watch out for in assessing whether
an individual is coming from a place
of personal credibility. With this
in mind, I was quite intrigued to
watch Amazon John and to recognize
that he's a person who is not at all
driven by ego. In fact, he's quite
humble and he understands full well,
just as I do, that we are mere
messengers and all we can do in our
lives is serve as conduits for the
healing gifts of nature. John
understands that we are not the
originators of these healing gifts,
and we deserve no credit for
creating them, because it is nature
that created them. John sees himself
as a facilitator, a bridge between
the rainforest and Western
civilization, and he explained that
role with a great degree of honesty
and forthrightness about his own
journey.
Honoring a person's life journey and
life purpose
The other thing that's important to
note in assessing the character of
people you'd like to have around you
is to learn about their personal
journey. What difficulties did they
go through and how did they arrive
at their current beliefs? How did
they acquire the paradigms under
which they presently operate? The
kind of people that you want to be
around, at least in my experience,
are people who have been able to
confront their own distortions and
replace them with new beliefs about
their role in the universe.
That's a bit nebulous, so let me
explain it a little further: to
confront your own illusions means to
question your current beliefs about
the world around you. Each of us has
our own constructs, our own version
of reality in which we live and
operate, and none of those versions
of reality are actually real. They
are stories that we tell ourselves,
they are patterns in which we
function and get along with our
lives. But people who are true
healers and wise, mature adults are
people who are able to face those
distortions, question them and
arrive at a new, expanded
understanding. It doesn't
necessarily mean they arrive at the
"truth," it just means they expand
their awareness and are able to
continue on their life journey with
this new awareness in an
ever-expanding spiral pattern, much
like the shell of a marine creature.
This spiral grows and expands as the
person's awareness expands. And what
I learned about Amazon John was
that, early in his life, he was a
treasure hunter -- a literal
treasure hunter! He would travel to
Peru and search for gems, stones and
ancient artifacts, and bring them
back to the United States to find
buyers. At the time, his belief was
that these were the treasures of the
rainforest. But what we see in John
today is a man who recognizes that
those treasures were illusions --
that the true treasures of the
rainforest were hidden in the plants
all this time. These are the
treasures of nature, the wealth
provided by the healing potential of
these plants. And he was able,
through a personal transformation
process requiring several years, to
question his own distortions and
arrive at a new understanding of
what treasure really means. Today,
through the Amazon Herb Company, he
is able to communicate that new
vision of what treasure really means
to the Western world.
That kind of shift in thinking
requires a tremendous amount of
courage, self-honesty and humility.
This is not the kind of personal
transformation that you will
typically find in the conventional
medical community. To many in
organized medicine, credibility
comes from passing the right exam
and graduating from the right
school, taking the right tests,
getting the right credentials, and
so on. But to me, credibility comes
from taking a journey and
demonstrating that you have the
character necessary to be an adult,
to grow up, mature, expand your
awareness and question your present
beliefs. And then, if you're really
good, to be able to form new beliefs
that better serve the interests of
yourself, your community, and the
world at large. And that, as I see
it, is the path along which Amazon
John is traveling.
(By the way, for many people,
this sort of empowering shift in
beliefs only emerges following a
health crisis. All too often, we
aren't willing to change our beliefs
unless we're facing imminent death,
it seems.)
The Amazon
Herb products
You'll notice I've said all of this
and I haven't even mentioned the
Amazon Herb products. Most people
who talk about the Amazon Herb
Company are focused on the products,
and there's nothing wrong with that:
they are outstanding products and
I'll get to those in a minute. But I
consider it to be most important to
look at the founder of the company
and what that means for the
character of the organization and
the energy of its products. This is
a man who understands the economics
of sustainable revenue models for
the rainforest; he understands what
it means to give back to a community
and he understands the business
challenges of bringing this to a
population here in the United
States.
But let's talk about the products
for a minute, because that's what
gets most people excited about this
company. And when it comes to these
products, I can speak far more
freely about them than Amazon John
can. That's because the current
regulatory environment in the U.S.
does not allow any principal of a
company that manufactures these
products to make health claims about
these products. For myself, on the
other hand, since I have absolutely
no financial ties with this company
whatsoever, and I'm not a
distributor of the company, and I'm
not being paid to write any of this,
I can tell you what I honestly think
about these products. And here it
is: based on what I've learned from
spending more than 5,000 hours
studying nutrition and the healing
gifts of nature, I believe that
these products can not only help
prevent nearly every major chronic
disease we are seeing in modern
society today, but that they can
also reverse many of those diseases,
especially the early stages of those
diseases.
Beyond that, I believe that these
products have the potential to even
alter the mindset of our population,
to bring greater calm and reduce
aggression in our population. You
see, these products operate at many
different levels: the biophysical
level, the biochemical level and the
bioenergetic level.
Amazon Herb
products operate at three levels
At the biophysical level you have
products like Fiberzon, which help
support peristaltic action in the
digestive tract and help clear out
waste products that far too many
people have sitting around in their
large intestine for days at a time.
If you can't eliminate waste
products from your body, then you
are essentially poisoning yourself
by reabsorbing your own waste rather
than getting rid of it.
At the biochemical level, there are
a great many phytochemicals and
phytonutrients in the Amazon Herb
product line. You'll find a variety
of herbs like chanca piedra, una de
gato (also known as cat's claw),
graviola, jatoba and a great many
other herbs that are biochemically
active. They demonstrate immune
system enhancement, protection of
the liver, thepancreas, the
endocrine system, the nervous
system, and so on. These
phytonutrients help eliminate toxins
and protect the body from parasites,
bacteria and viruses, and other
invaders. These biochemical effects
are well-documented if you actually
look at the scientific literature on
these herbs. This is where most of
the potency of these products gets
recognized: the biochemical level.
Then there's the bioenergetic level,
and that's what I spoke about
earlier. And that's what sets these
supplements apart from practically
everything else on the market. Sure,
you can buy cat's claw at any health
food store, but where else can you
buy cat's claw that has been
harvested from its natural
environment, that has been blessed
by the native peoples from Peru who
are harvesting this as part of a
sustainable revenue model to protect
their homeland, that has been
packaged and marketed by a company
headed by a person who imparts the
intention of healing into his
company and product line? Where else
can you find an herb like that? Yes,
you can find that from local
herbalists who make their own
healing remedies in small batches,
but I don't think you can find it
commercially available on a large
scale anywhere other than the Amazon
Herb Company.
Reversing chronic disease with
Amazon Herbs
So you have herbal products that
operate on all three levels. With
that in mind, you might ask, "What
can these products really do? How
can they really help me?" And that's
a multipart answer. My belief is
that these products can actually
reverse early stage degenerative
diseases; they can reconfigure your
nervous system; they can eliminate
toxins from your system, they can
boost immune system function and
protect you from viruses; they can
boost the antioxidant level in your
tissues and circulating in your
blood; they can even help reverse
heart disease.
They can do all of these things and
many more, including providing
health benefits for diabetics via
blood sugar regulation, reducing
insulin resistance, supporting the
pancreas and so on. And yet there is
a danger in looking at the miracle
class properties of herbs like this
and relying on them alone to solve
your health problems.
Don't get caught drowning in a
victim mentality
This is something I've mentioned
frequently even when I get excited
about herbal products, and that is:
to truly heal, you have to look at
what decisions in your life got you
to the point where you are today. If
you're suffering from a chronic
disease like heart disease or cancer
or diabetes or osteoporosis, then
you got there by making a series of
decisions over a period of years or
decades that had a specific outcome.
This outcome is what you are living
today. These decisions typically
involve how much physical exercise
you wish to pursue, what foods you
choose to consume, what beverages
you drink, what prescription drugs
you choose to put into your body,
what environments you choose to live
in and so on.
These choices got you to where you
are today. Along those lines, it is
self-deception to suppose that one
product or one line of products is
going to release you from the
responsibility of making good
decisions from this day forward.
This is where a lot of people get
distracted with any herbal product.
They think that they're going to be
"saved" by these products. What
they're thinking, perhaps, at a
subconscious level is "Gee, I've
spent my whole life damaging my body
and now I have this cancer, but
thank God this new anti-cancer
product is going to come along and
save me, and so I'm just going to
take that and keep doing all these
other bad things in my life that
gave me cancer in the first place."
More than 80% of all chronic disease
is preventable, but only if you know
how. Learn the proven, yet simple
prevention strategies for cancer,
heart disease, diabetes, depression,
Alzheimer's and many other
degenerative health conditions.
I strongly encourage you to avoid
adopting that victim mentality. I
encourage you to challenge yourself
and begin the healing process (if
you haven't already) by altering
your lifestyle at the same time that
you begin taking a line of
nutritional products like these from
the Amazon Herb Company. Because
what you will find is that no
product can replace your choice, no
product can make decisions for you.
In fact, that thinking is probably
what got you into a health problem
in the first place, because you may
have thought that prescription drugs
were going to be the miracle cure
for you, and now you've found out
that drugs don't cure you, they
actually kill you (60,000+ Americans
killed by Vioxx alone, according to
a study published in The Lancet. And
that's just one prescription drug
out of thousands...).
The cure for all disease starts
within
So now you're looking for a real
cure, but if you're looking outside
yourself for that cure, that's a
mistake. The cure to your health
problem is inside you, starting with
your beliefs and self
responsibility. If you address your
own distortions, your own beliefs
and your own behavioral choices, and
start with that as your foundation,
and then add these healing herbs
from the Amazon rainforest, you will
find that these two strategies
multiply each others' effects. And
then you will have initiated a
sequence of healing effects in your
own body that are multiplied by the
biophysical, biochemical and
bioenergetic healing potential of
these herbs and you will be able to
overcome practically any disease or
condition imaginable.
I don't care if it's chronic fatigue
syndrome (CFS) or fibromyalgia or
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity
Disorder (ADHD), or any of these
other so-called diseases that are
actually nothing but illusions --
they're just names given to a
pattern of symptoms because doctors
don't know what's wrong with you.
I've met so many people who say "I
have CFS" and they feel so
comfortable that they've been
labeled with this disease... they
identify themselves with having that
disease. What they need to do is get
rid of that label and challenge it
by saying, "You know, maybe I don't
have these diseases. Maybe these are
just a bunch of symptoms caused by
eating foods containing a lot of
toxic ingredients and not taking
care of my health."
If you've read any of my work, you
know that I study food toxicology
and share a lot of information about
that, and I can tell you that if
you're eating the conventional foods
in America, you are poisoning your
body. You don't have chronic fatigue
syndrome, you have a toxic
biochemistry because you've been
consuming toxic foods with those
ingredients like sodium nitrite,
artificial colors, and hydrogenated
oils ... the list goes on and on. (SeeGroceryWarning.com
for more.) If you truly want to heal
yourself and you want to be
successful with the Amazon Herb
Company, it's time to get honest
with yourself and stop consuming
these poisons. Start questioning
your beliefs and reformulating them
into ones that serve your long term
health interests, and then
supplement with good nutrition, with
healing herbs and with healing foods
(garlic, broccoli, berries, raw
nuts, etc.)
The Amazon Herb product line can be
a very successful part of that
transformation. But even those
products, as potent as they are, and
as much as they are blessed with the
energy of healing, even they cannot
overcome your own self-sabotage if
you choose to pursue the mindset of
conventional medicine and American
food consumers.
The Amazon Herb product line is a
great way to initiate the health
transformation process, partly
because of the energetic component
of these herbs. You will find your
energetic shifts to be far easier
when you are supported by these
herbs.
A community of healers and leaders
If you want to join a community of
true healers, people who have a
calling to healing themselves and
helping heal those around them, then
I invite you to get involved with
the Amazon Herb Company. This is a
company with an energy like no other
company I've ever witnessed. I've
experienced it first-hand in meeting
so many of the people who are
involved in this company and talking
with Amazon John in person. And if
you're really ready for a change
that goes beyond just losing weight,
eliminating pain, ending
inflammation or overcoming some
symptom in your body, if you're
ready for a true transformation that
involves your body, your mind and
your spirit, then this is the
company for you.
Did I mention that you can earn an
honest living with this company?
Frankly, the financial component
should be the last thing you
consider. That's why I haven't even
brought it up until now. But this
company has a word-of-mouth
marketing compensation plan that's
very generous and rewards people who
share the good news about these
products. What a great deal -- you
can actually make a living, a good
living, while you are sharing
information that can help heal and
transform the lives of people around
you. At the same time, the side
effect of all of that is that your
actions help create a system of
economic renewal for the rainforest
that make it more valuable alive
than dead. It's a win/win situation
for everyone involved. You win, the
people around you benefit, the
rainforest benefits, the native
populations in Peru benefit by being
able to earn an honest living by
harvesting native plants in their
natural environment, and you also
win by sharing the energy and
intention of healing at many levels.
Is this right for me?
If you're out there reading this and
you don't know if the Amazon Herb
product line or business opportunity
is right for you, then keep reading
(and remember, I am not involved
with this company in any way, so
this is not some clever
solicitation). Perhaps you're
skeptical about all the good news. I
think you're right to be skeptical
because it's important to be a
discerning, thinking person who
intelligently evaluates each
opportunity. Let me share something
very personal. I wouldn't be
spending hours of my time writing
about this with absolutely no
compensation if I didn't feel
passionate about what this can do
for the world. This information is
something of tremendous value to my
readers and to society at large.
The Amazon Herb Company is making a
lasting difference. I've been to
Peru, I've hiked through the Andes
Mountains, I've seen the dwellings
in which the local people live --
houses made of mud bricks,
basically. I've been approached by
children in poverty on the streets
of Lima and Cuzco who are desperate
to sell me anything as long as they
can earn a few cents for the day.
The Amazon Herb Company helps give
these people new choices, new
freedoms and a new future.
I've walked through parts of the
Amazon rainforest and I've admired
the engineering of nature, up close
and personal, one plant at a time.
There's a miracle at work in nature.
And the Amazon Herb Company helps
deliver that miracle to the people
in the Western world who need it
most.
I've seen people suffering from
chronic diseases, spending their
life savings on conventional medical
treatments, forfeiting their quality
of life and time with loved ones.
And I've seen others reverse those
diseases with medicinal herbs,
healing foods, and a transformation
in personal beliefs and personal
responsibility. The Amazon Herb
Company can help people overcome
chronic disease and expand their
understanding of the true healing
potential found inside each of us.
I want to see the Amazon Herb
Company succeed
Part of the reason I'm doing this is
because I want to see the Amazon
Herb Company succeed. I want to see
this product in the hands of 10
million Americans in the next 3
years. I'd like to see tens of
thousands of acres of rainforest in
Peru as part of this program to grow
and harvest herbs and bring them to
the United States where they can
help save lives. And frankly, I'd
like to see Amazon John and the
other principals of his company
receive tremendous rewards for
having the courage to step forward
and do this, and I don't mean just
financial rewards, I mean
recognition -- the kind of global
recognition that says these are
pioneering people who have done
something deeply significant for
mankind. Nobel Prize recognition.
If I can have a small role to play
in this, in multiplying the reach of
this company, then I'm more than
happy to take on that role. Nothing
would make me happier than to have
this article read by 10 million
people. Nothing would make me
happier than to see the smiles on
the faces of Peruvians, knowing that
their native lands are being
protected and that they have a
sustainable economic revenue model
that not only brings them financial
wealth, but that also allows them to
share their healing wisdom with a
society that desperately needs it --
and that society is ours.
In our modern society, if we want to
have any hope whatsoever of
overcoming chronic disease, we have
to get in touch with nature. We have
to embrace companies like the Amazon
Herb Company, companies that are
doing everything right to recognize
and leverage the healing gifts of
nature. And that, ultimately, is why
I have decided to openly endorse
this company. It is a company whose
values I share, it is a company with
a vision that is aligned with global
healing, and it is a company that I
think is already accomplishing
tremendous good in the world. And
yet it has only begun to grow.
That's why I invite you to get
involved. Be part of it. Be part of
something that's bigger than any of
us individually. Be part of
something that can significantly
change the planet at many levels:
our cities, societies, our mindset,
our sustainable ecosystems... even
in our economic thinking and free
market theories about what it takes
to be financially viable. This is a
company that's expanding the
paradigms in all those areas, and if
you miss out on this opportunity,
you'll miss what might be the most
exciting and transforming experience
of your life.
I also have a free downloadable
ebook about the Amazon Herb Company.

Success With the Amazon Herb
Company. This is a 3-step guide I

Finally, let me add in a couple of
legal notes. This article was
unsolicited and is not endorsed in
any way by the Amazon Herb Company.
Anything mentioned here about their
products is simply my own opinion,
and not their official position. I
received no funds or free products
in exchange for writing this
article, and I am not a distributor
of the Amazon Herb Company, nor is
any person in my family a
distributor. I receive no
commissions of any kind from the
sale of Amazon Herb products. This
article is offered as an exercise of
my Free Speech rights, through which
I am offering information and views
on products, people and
organizations that I feel are
important to cover for reader
interest.
Why a direct sales company?
Once this article goes public, I'm
going to receive the inevitable
emails asking, "Mike, why are you
recommending a company using the
direct sales marketing model?"
I'm not concerned with the marketing
model of the company. That's
irrelevant. I'm interested in the
product. And if the company changed
its marketing model to TV
advertising and vitamin store
displays, I'd still recommend the
product as long as they didn't fudge
the formula.
Besides, I'm consistently finding
some of the best health products in
the world are found through network
marketing companies. The Amazon Herb
Company, for example, is flat-out of
the most high-integrity, honest and
globally positive supplement
companies I've ever seen. That's why
I encourage everybody I know to get
involved with the Amazon Herb
Company, even if it's just as a
customer. Their rainforest herbal
products are second to none, and
