(AHP) located in Quebec, Canada, has been a distributor of ESSIAC ® products in North America. To this day, the company's aim is to create the ultimate client experience. AHP works closely with all retailers and distribu- tors and takes pride in excellent communica- tions, account management and executive abilities in order to offer clients a better way of purchasing. ESSIAC is an herbal formula that has been available since 1922. The formula was given to nurse Rene Caisse from a Canadian Ojibwa Indian. Nurse Caisse prepared her original herbal formula into an herbal tea named ESSIAC, which is her last name spelled backwards. ESSIAC is sold in pow- der, liquid and capsule formulas. The ES- SIAC powder will need to be brewed and pre- pared the old fashioned way. The herbs in ES- SIAC are grown specif- ically for ESSIAC from Canada and are har- vested at peak times in order to ensure maxi- mum botanical potency. ESSIAC for Pets is also made from Nurse Rene Caisse's original proprietary herbal for- mula, which contains a quality blend of pre- mium burdock root, sheep sorrel, Indian rhubarb and slippery elm. ESSIAC for Pets is avail- able in a convenient veg- etable capsule. These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Adminis- tration.

Children's Supplements from ChildLife ChildLife has been the No. 1 best-selling children's supplement line in the natural products industry for the past seven years. ChildLife is well known for developing spe- cialty formulas which address and support the issues and challenges kids face in today's world. ChildLife is the result of the 20-plus years of extensive experience of Holistic Pediatri- cian Dr. Murray Clarke. Dr. Clarke was born in New Zealand and moved to America in 1984, where he began his study of medicine. He now holds licenses and doctorates in three fields of medicine: Naturopathic Med- icine, Homeopathic Medicine and Chinese Medicine (including Acupuncture and Her- bology). Dr. Clarke opened his medical clinic in Santa Monica, California, in 1988 with a general practice utilizing acupuncture, herbs, nutrition and homeopathy. One of the chal- lenges Dr. Clarke faced was the lack of high- quality supplements that were geared towards babies and children. This inspired Dr. Clarke to create his own formu- las, specifically targeting the unique needs of children. ChildLife Essential's formulas are all gluten free and non-GMO, verified by The Non-GMO Project. ChildLife Essentials has 19 sup- plements, all specifically formu- lated to address the issues and challenges kids deal with daily. First Defense is one of, if not the best, immune formulas ever devel- oped for kids, while the Echinacea is the best tasting on the market. Aller-Care is great for support against environmental al- lergies. Cod Liver Oil provides 600 mg of DHA per serving – the high- est level of any children's supple- ment – and its delicious strawberry flavor has no fishy taste. Organic Vitamin D3 for Babies and Infants is the only organic D3 on the mar- ket for babies. ChildLife Essentials has a 19- year track record of success in pro- viding parents the tools they need to help support their kids' health needs and requirements. Visit ChildLife at booth #3229.
