“I am 47 years old and was morbidly obese for about the last 40 years. I was fortunate to be able to start taking Essentials in May before Akea actually launched. When I started, I was around 219 pounds, I was Type 2 diabetic, I was taking blood pressure and cholesterol medicines, as well as about a dozen supplements, several pain medicines, and a children’s aspirin every day.I knew about a week into it that it was going to change my life, because…”

— Dee Hardison, former pro football player,Lindon, NC

i2P Team Member Ray Zahab (a resident of Canada) ran the length of the Atacama Desert north to south (a distance of over 745 miles!) in a little over 2 weeks this past January. He carried each day’s total supplies, relying on one daily water/food drop or communities along the way to refuel. And a vital part of meeting his nutritional needs on this extreme endeavor was Akea Essentials. (Read more about Ray’s run here.)

“My name is Rolf … and I’ve played highly-competitive soccer all my life, and so with that type of a sport at that level, man, I’ll tell you it was just beating down my body. Within four weeks [of taking Akea Essentials], I was back on the treadmill, my knees were feeling great, my back was feeling great. Today I’m back to running 25 to 30 miles a week on the treadmill and just living life and loving it! And I thank Akea for it.

— Rolf, Oakhurst, CA

“I treat about 300 patients a week. I’ve noticed an epidemic around…inadequate nutrition in this country and it’s why all of these chronic diseases are happening. Akea is the “best bang for the bucks” in terms of superfoods that are fermented, that allow people to get their nutritional balance quickly, so it’s a great value. I believe it’s going to be a central foundation for my practice.”

— Dr. Chris Werness, Chapel Hill, NC

We’ve seen our whole family getting results…”

“I started using [Akea Essentials] and I had a lot of health issues last year that I don’t have this year. …I know Akea played a big role in it.”

“I signed up for a two-month supply and the 60-Day Challenge. For the first few weeks, I didn’t notice any physical changes, but I did enjoy reading the daily emails. But by Week 4 I started to wake up more well-rested, and by Week 6 the inflammation in my knee was gone. The product was busy helping my body, and the emails from the 60-Day Challenge were helping to remind me of how easy it could be to make the right choices for my health. Akea Essentials has been a great partner for me in re-writing my own story of health and getting back on track.”

“[Both my sister and I are taking Akea Essentials] and the immediate benefits we notice are that we have more energy, we generally feel better, we’re not full of aches and pains any more. One of the things that most interested me…was the fact that  while the immediate benefits are great and exciting, I really am thinking about the long-term benefits of this product and what it can do for you: living for many years [and] doing so in a healthy way and being involved in, and active in, my life.”

— Dianna, Southern Pines, NC

“One of the things I loved about [Akea Essentials] is that it gave me the energy that I needed.

I also lost about 4 suit sizes.”A number of Bishop McKenzie’s congregation are also taking Akea Essentials, and he has this to say about their results: “There have been stories after stories that people come and tell me about…they don’t have [back pain] any more; one lady I talked to had migraines and she doesn’t have them any more.”

— Brian, Modesto, CA

“My wife…loved it right off the bat. It made a lot of her [rheumatism] pain go away. The girls take it every day–it helps us sleep good.

— Chris and Denise, Modesto, CA

“I’ve been in nutrition as part of my practice for years, I’ve been involved with network marketing with different nutritional products. Akea Essentials made sense to me because it’s food, and that makes more sense to me than anything. … So we’ll just continue to tell people one at a time and let it grow and be part of what I believe will be a billion dollar company … We’ll…be very happy to be part of that and to…help people stay healthy.”

— John, Bakersfield, CA

I was partly drawn to Akea because I was aggressively training for a triathlon and marathons, and developed some knee problems, and couldn’t reduce the swelling in my knees, even though I was taking baby aspirin every day, I was taking all sorts of anti-inflammatories, I was doing physical therapy, and there was nothing that could get rid of that swelling. About 6 weeks into taking Akea, the swelling was gone, which really opened a whole new door for me, back into my health and wellbeing and being able to take care of myself.”.

“Hi! I’m 61 and began Akea about a month and a half ago in an effort to get healthier and hopefully lose some weight. I had a doctor’s visit shortly before I started Akea, and my blood pressure was 154/92. My doctor planned to put my on blood pressure medication if it was still that high after 90 days.I started taking Akea twice a day mixed in juice, and amazingly found within a day or two I wasn’t craving sugar the way that I had. It helped me lose 6 pounds in the first week that I took it”.
