"Nu Skin is definitely GREAT!"

EKA SINTA SANTOSA, 57 years, Businesswoman, Indonesia

Before using Nu Skin 180 Anti-aging Skin Therapy System, I had visible pores, fine lines, and wrinkles. My complexion was dull and sallow. For me, this product is very special because in 2-3 days, I could see great results. My complexion became brighter, firmer, and seemed to glow. After 2 weeks of use, I could see that my overall skin texture had improved, smoothened, and my pores were smaller.

I used to put on heavy make-up. Now I don't have to use foundation anymore as my complexion is brighter and has a natural glow. I didn't notice this initially until my daughter remarked that my pores were no longer visible and my skin looked smoother.

I am very happy now because I don't have to carry out complicated, skin care routine unlike before. I don't even have to use foundation as just some loose powder after moisturizing is enough to complete my make-up regimen.

Nu Skin 180 is very easy to use but its effects are amazing. Now I don't need foundation or heavy make-up to cover up as my skin is now brighter and could glow naturally.

Ms. AGNES IMAYANTI, 62 years, Businesswoman, Indonesia

I have been using Nu Skin products for more than 2 years. Previously, I have used other brands of skin care products but the results were disappointing. They did not solve my aging skin problem.

The first anti-aging product from Nu Skin that I used was the 180 System and I am very satisfied with the results. When I combined Tru Face Essence with the 180 System, I found the results incredible! My skin became firmer, more supple and moist. Everyone told me that I look much younger than my biological age. They couldn't believe that I am 62 years old.

I feel so blessed to be able to use Nu Skin products. My dreams to have younger skin have been fulfilled. Nu Skin in definitely GREAT!

Live Better, Longer

WEDDY PRAYUDHA, 39 years,
Events Organizer, Indonesia

I've had a long health history. When I was a kid, I had tumor surgery on my left arm. Then, I had another tumor surgery on my left parotid gland near my neck. When I started working in 1994, visits to the doctor became my monthly ritual. I easily contracted flu and colds every time I'm too exhausted. Not to mention the allergic rhinitis that I had since high school due to my hobby of riding a motorcycle without using a chest protector.

I started consuming health supplements in 1995, but it wasn't done routinely. Normally, I just took it when I had to work harder than my usual routine. In 2000, I switched to another food supplement which I consumed regularly. However, I was so disappointed to find out when consulting with a nutritionist that what was claimed by that supplement label was not reflected by my health status.

I came to know about the antioxidant concept from health magazines. Nevertheless, only after witnessing an antioxidant demonstration when I was first introduced to LifePak in August 2005, then I accepted the logic and explanation. I searched as much information as I could about LifePak from the Pharmanex websites as well as brochures.

Through the Pharmanex BioPhotonic Scanner in October 2005, I found out that my score was only 18,000! Where have all the supplements that I had taken gone? That answered my question why I still fall sick so easily. Immediately, I made a decision to consume LifePak.

In December 2005, my score increased to 35,000. In the following month, I added MarineOmega into my daily menu and my score reached 41,000 in January 2006.

After 10 months of consuming LifePak together with MarineOmega and Tegreen97, I rarely fell sick and feel more energetic. Now I'm healthier and more productive.

LIU SURYANI, 41 years, Businesswoman, Indonesia

I came to know about LifePak in 2004. At that time, I was not interested in consuming LifePak because the product is marketed under MLM scheme and I did not believe in any MLM companies. Not until I got a LifePak from my sibling in June 2005, my husband -- a physician -- and I began to seek information about LifePak and its manufacturer, Pharmanex. We searched such information at websites. Once we knew about the integrity of Pharmanex and various scientific researches that support the products and not to mention that LifePak had been registered under the Physician's Desk Reference (PDR). We soon believed it and started consuming it.

Since August 2005, I joined Nu Skin, and it just took me a couple of months to become an Executive. The BioPhotonic Scanner is a device that encouraged me to be engaged in this business. The first time I was scanned using the BioPhotonic Scanner in July 2005, my antioxidant score was just 36,000. After consuming LifePak and going through a balanced diet (consuming more vegetables and fruits) in December 2005, my antioxidant score drastically increased to 55,000.

Shortly, after MarineOmega and Tegreen were available in Indonesia, I started consuming these two products. In February 2006 my antioxidant score reached 63,000. Incredible!

Your Skin Carotenoid Score (SCS) is an immediate numberic reading of your own skin carotenoid content and an important indicator of the overall strength of your body's antioxdant defense system.

I have always been conscious about my flabby arms and thus I have never worn sleeveless tops. When I learned about the wonders of Nu Skin Galvanic Spa II that it can work for the body, I used it on my left arm so that I could make a comparison to my right. In just 8 minutes, I could see significant results! Not only can it remove excessive fluid through the lympathic system, it can also reduce cellulite! These amazing results gave me greater confidence towards the Galvanic Spa and I need not spend thousands of dollars to visit day spas to shape up my body! I can use Galvanic Spa at the comfort of my own home and anywhere else to look good and healthy!

"I' so happy I've gotten my figure back... Thank you Nu Skin!"

Mrs. ANCHASA JAIPRASIT, 35 years, Homemaker, Thailand

I am a mother of 4 children. I usually don't believe in slimming products. Previously, I had tried many products but they did not work well. Until I met Mr. Rungroj Viriyachon (Blue Diamond executive) who recommended me to use Galvanic Spa System II with Body Shaping Gel, and together with Dermattc Effects body contouring lotion. I decided to try these products and record my feelings and results by taking photos of my tummy. While using the Galvanic Spa System, I could feel the difference just after the first treatment. 

I have been doing Galvanic treatment continuously for 12 weeks and now my waist has been reduced from 83.5 cm to 76 cm. In addition, the rough skin on my tummy has diminished. I really have to thank Mr. Rungroj and Nu Skin for helping me regain my figure and confidence.

Pharmanex Recognized for Scientific Achievements in Key Nutrition and Health Categories

The Company Makes Important Strides in the Areas of Antioxidant Protection, Aerobic Performance and Endurance, Liver Protection and Breast Cell Health

PROVO, Utah, June 15 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Pharmanex, a Nu Skin Enterprises Company (NYSE: NUS), announced today that company scientists have made significant advancements in several nutritional health categories. Independent scientific associations and journals recently recognized these scientific achievements by inviting Pharmanex scientists to present their findings and by publishing its research. Leading research organizations have also independently tested Pharmanex products in their studies and found positive results. 

"The Pharmanex research and development team is keeping us at the forefront in scientific advancement in the nutritional supplement category," said Truman Hunt, CEO and president of Nu Skin Enterprises, parent company to Pharmanex. "We are pleased to be recognized for our scientific achievement in the nutritional supplement industry. Our commitment to scientifically measuring the safety and efficacy of our nutritional products is setting the standard in the industry and helping people to live better, longer." 

During the first part of 2004, Pharmanex has been recognized for its scientific efforts in antioxidant protection, aerobic performance and endurance and liver protection. Independent researchers also conducted a study on the Pharmanex product ReishiMax(R) in relation to breast cell health. 

Antioxidant Protection -- Pharmanex(R) BioPhotonic Scanner 

A paper titled "Nutritional Significance and Measurement of Carotenoids," written by Carsten Smidt, Ph.D., vice president of Pharmanex research and development, was published in the May 2004 edition of the peer-reviewed journal Current Topics in Nutraceutical Research (CTNR). This paper reviews the nutritional aspects of carotenoids, their role as important antioxidants, their role in eye, skin, prostate and cardiovascular health and the methods used to determine carotenoid intake and nutritional status-including use of the Pharmanex(R) BioPhotonic Scanner, which non-invasively measures carotenoids in human skin. 

In addition to this paper, a recent study, "Adiposity Negatively Influences Carotenoids and Antioxidant Status in Overweight Individuals," was presented by the Rippe Lifestyle Institute, Shrewsbury, MA, at the National Meeting of the American College of Sports Medicine. The study shows that both body weight and adiposity are negatively correlated with skin carotenoids as measured using the Pharmanex(R) BioPhotonic Scanner. 

Dr. Smidt also gave an oral presentation on the Pharmanex(R) BioPhotonic Scanner at the annual meeting of the American Society for Nutritional Sciences at Experimental Biology 2004, which took place April 17 - 21, 2004 in Washington D.C. The study, "Non-invasive Raman spectroscopy measurement of human carotenoid status," found that the BioPhotonic Scanner measurement had a high correlation with blood serum carotenoid levels providing further validation of the instrument (FASEB J 18(4):A480, 2004.). 

Aerobic Performance and Endurance 

Pharmanex researchers were invited to present a study at Experimental Biology 2004 showing that a proprietary extract of the cordyceps mushroom called CordyMax(R) Cs-4(R) may improve oxygen capacity for aerobic exercise and endurance in mid-age to elderly, sedentary humans. This study, selected from a pool of nearly 10,000 applications, has been highlighted by the American Physiological Society (APS) at their annual scientific conference, Experimental Biology 2004, held April 17 - 21, 2004, in Washington, D.C. To view the press release sent out by the American Physiological Society on this study go to
http://www.the-aps.org/press/conference/eb04/4.htm 

The study, "CordyMax enhances aerobic capability and metabolism, and endurance performance in healthy, mid-age to elderly sedentary humans," found that the subjects taking CordyMax(R) Cs-4(R) improved significantly in aerobic exercise capacity, physical strength for aerobic exercise, endurance performance and exercise metabolism over the placebo group (FASEB J 18(5): A931, 2004.). 

Liver Protection 

In another study presented at Experimental Biology 2004, Pharmanex scientists examined the effect of ReishiMax(R), a proprietary extract of the reishi mushroom (Ganoderma lucidum), on liver function. The study, "ReishiMax protects liver and improves liver functions in an experimental hepatitis model," found that oral supplementation of ReishiMax(R) mitigates liver necrosis and fibrosis and improves liver function (FASEB J 18(5): A999, 2004.). 

Pharmanex Scientists presented a similar study at the annual meeting of the American Gastroenterology Association called Digestive Disease Week. The study, "Reduced Liver Necrosis and Fibrosis and Improved Liver Functions in a CCL4-Induced Hepatitis Model by ReishiMax(R) Supplementation," was also published in the May 2004 edition of Gastroenterology. 

Breast Cell Health 

Independent Research 

Researchers from Indiana University, the Methodist Research Institute and Purdue University performed a study comparing the biological activity of several reishi mushroom supplements (Ganoderma lucidum), including the Pharmanex(R) product ReishiMax(R), to determine ability to inhibit certain factors of highly invasive breast and prostate cancer cells. The study, "Biologic Activity of Spores and Dried Powder from Ganoderma lucidum for the Inhibition of Highly Invasive Human Breast and Prostate Cancer Cells," found that ReishiMax(R) had the most potent inhibition against breast and prostate cancer cell proliferation amongst all the samples. The article states, "Interestingly, the sample containing powdered extract with spores [ReishiMax(R)] was the most potent in inhibiting migration (99%)." 

The authors also noted that ReishiMax(R) was the only reishi product to identify standardized active constituents, and suggested that, "the difference in potency to inhibit cancer cells of the different samples of Ganoderma lucidum can be the result of variation in the concentration of the active ingredients." Lastly, the authors showed that cracking spores by mechanistic disruption (as with ReishiMax(R)), increased activity by releasing biologically active components. This study was published in The Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine, Volume 9, Number 4, 2003, pp.491-497. 

In a follow-up study on ReishiMax(R), researchers from the University of Indiana and the Methodist Research Institute found that ReishiMax(R) may contribute to reducing invasion and metastasis of breast cancers by inhibiting cancer cell adhesion, cell migration, and growth of cancer cells. The study also showed that reishi (Ganoderma lucidum) could have preventive effects against secondary metastases, which are responsible for the high mortality of breast cancer. The study, "Ganoderma lucidum inhibits invasiveness of breast cancer cells," was published in the Journal of Cancer Integrative Medicine, 2004, Vol. 2, No. 1. 

According to Joseph Chang, Ph.D., president of Pharmanex, "The results of these studies validate the efficacy of our products. With over 75 full-time scientists on staff and advisory relationships with leading researchers and universities, Pharmanex continues to build a body of knowledge in key nutritional and health categories."
