VIDEO: Near Death Experience Changes Former NFL Player’s Life

VIDEO: Near Death Experience Changes Former NFL Player’s Life

A few days ago, KSL News of Salt Lake reported on a local high school football coach who nearly lost his life due to heart problems. Mr. John Hunter, a former NFL athlete, spent 11 days in a coma, having to be brought back to life three different times. He woke up and started on a road to recovery, successful so far thanks to medical professionals, a supportive community, and what John describes as “miracles.”

“I’m glad to be here,” John told Synergy in an interview conducted earlier today. “I’m about to celebrate my ninth wedding anniversary with my wife, and she is tickled to death that I’m here to celebrate it with her.”

>>See the KSL News video coverage of John’s story below.

Recently, while working to recover and resurrect his health, John was approached by a caring friend, Synergy Team Member Jason Buck. Knowing the power of ProArgi-9+, Jason insisted that his friend begin regularly drinking ProArgi-9+ as part of his vital recovery.

“The month I got home [from the hospital],” said John, “Jason kept feeding [ProArgi-9+] to me, saying ‘I love ya buddy, just want you to take care of this. I believe in this product.’ So I started doing what he told me, he kept having me take it, and I kept at it.”

Happily, John reported “I do notice a difference. I’m not sure how it all works, but this makes a difference.”

“Put it this way,” he continued. “My ejection fraction, which is the amount of blood my heart pumps per beat, was dangerously low. A normal ejection fraction is between 50 to 70%. When I started [his crisis, resulting in weeks in the hospital], I was at 10 to 15%, which means I was dying. Well, in the hospital I got up to 30 to 35%. Now, after taking all this ProArgi-9+, last week I had another echocardiogram, and the doctor called and said ‘we don’t know what the h*** you are doing, but whatever it is, keep doing it. You’re at 50-55%.”

John then explained that his initial thought was that the medications he had been prescribed were the cause of his wonderful improvement, but when asked, his doctors told him that couldn’t be the case, as he had not yet been prescribed the kind of medication that would produce those results.

The community here in Utah Valley, along with all of us here at Synergy WorldWide, is grateful for John’s remarkable recovery so far. We wish him and his wife a happy upcoming anniversary and we look forward to more great news as he continues to work towards a long, healthy life.

Synergy Soccer Star Spotlight

If you find yourself trying to get a soccer ball past Katherine Lynch, you are going to have your work cut out for you. Katherine, a senior at Montgomery High School in New Jersey, already has a few championships under her belt and she’s looking for more. Katherine is currently in the running for the title of New Jersey’s “Best Defender” because she plays hard, she plays smart, and she stays healthy.

Her mother, Synergy Team Member Dr. Teresa Lynch, believes in sharing the benefits of Synergy products with everyone, especially her family. For this reason, Katherine has the opportunity to experience Synergy supplements on a regular basis, and realize the great ways they affect her day and her soccer game.

Synergy WorldWide: What do you love most about soccer?
Katherine Lynch: It’s just something I love to do. I love the feeling it gives me when I play. It takes me away from stress. You just play, having fun with your best friends.

SWW: You are a defensive player. Isn’t it true that players on defense have to be stronger than the strikers?
KL: [laughs] Yeah.

SWW: So what is your training like?
KL: During high school season, we practice five days a week, and we have two games per week. I’ll go to the weight room sometimes with my friend and do workouts. Then after I work out, after resistance training, I have a Maximum Protein shake when I get home.

SWW: Tell us how you use Synergy products to improve your performance.
KL: Every morning I have the vanilla Health Shake for breakfast. Before I play, I’ll have a drink of ProArgi-9+, either the Active one or just regular.

SWW: How does that Health Shake breakfast affect your day?
KL: It gives me energy, actually. After I drink it, I actually am pretty awake, whereas if I eat other things for breakfast like cereal or toast or something it makes me really tired. These shakes fill me up and keep me going till lunch.

SWW: What’s this upcoming season going to be like for your high school team?
KL: We’re doing pretty well. We’re doing really well actually.

SWW: Are you going to win state?
KL: We’re hoping to. Last year we actually had one of the greatest seasons in the history of our town, basically. We won our conference, our county, our section and we won state.

In the background, Katherine’s mother Terry is heard saying “Tell him you were the starting center!”

KL: And I was the starting center defender. My mom wants me to throw that in. But, yeah, it was a pretty crazy season that I’ll never forget.

SWW: Is it hard to keep good grades when you are a soccer star?
KL: Actually maintaining my grades is harder out of [soccer] season. Being in season keeps me on a schedule and it keeps me grounded and I know I need to get stuff done, so I don’t procrastinate as much. So my grades aren’t a problem because I stay on top of them.

SWW: Health is not a huge focus for many people your age. Often, it’s not until people get older and start losing their health that they realize how important it is to make healthy choices. Why is it already so important to you?
KL: Maintaining my health makes me happy. It gets me in a better mood. When I eat healthy I feel better, my energy is better… Everything is just more positive in my life when  I’m being healthy. When it starts to slip away, like when I’m out of [soccer] season, I’m often not as happy. Then I’m reminded that being healthy and eating healthy is important to being happy.

As was mentioned earlier, Katherine is currently in the running to win the “New Jersey’s Best Defender” award from nj.com. Click the button and cast your vote for Katherine Lynch.

Mark Comer on the Importance of Events 2013

Mark Comer on the Importance of Events

Double Presidential Mark Comer, one of Synergy’s top earners and most successful business builders, is always willing to give expert advice and share his remarkable story. The many Team Members who tuned into the Corporate Update Call earlier in the week heard him specifically mention the importance of events in the course of his career. Following the call, we asked him to elaborate on the subject. This is what he said:

“Believe me, I’ve been with Synergy for a long time, and I’ve seen it over and over again. Events inspire people to build, and people build for events. Just think about Korea. That market started with  just a handful of people going to little local events, and now at the summit, there were over 4000 people.

Events help us in more ways than we even realize. I like feeling the vibe at an event, and then using that to figure out what I need to do next. I’m always telling people to look for events to attend, even if it takes some travel. Great things just start happening when you attend.”

ProArgi-9+ and the Physicians Desk Reference

ProArgi-9+ and the Physicians Desk Reference

For over 67 years, medical specialists across the world have turned to the Physicians Desk Reference (PDR) as the authoritative source of information on drugs and prescribed substances. Synergy is pleased to announce that ProArgi-9+ will be included in the 2014 edition of the PDR, providing a new opportunity for people to discover the tremendous benefits of our best-selling product.

Found in virtually every physician’s office, pharmacy, clinic and library, no medical reference is more current, more recognized, or more respected. The PDR contains label information, dosage instructions, images and more.

We hope this publicity encourages more people to discover and share ProArgi-9+ and its value in supporting a healthy lifestyle.

Note: The 2014 Edition of the Physicians Desk Reference containing information about ProArgi-9+ will be made available this December in both digital and physical versions.

Fun Facts about Cancun with Synergy

Fun Facts about Cancun with Synergy

One month ago today, we posted a video and introduction to our 2014 Cancun vacation destination. Hopefully that inspired a series of daydreams for you, dreams in which you find yourself on those sandy beaches with the sun on your face and a tropical beverage in your hand.

Synergy North America Team Members: There are still three months left to qualify! Those dreams are within reach— let us help you make them a reality!

In these last three months, as you push yourself to qualify, here are a few fun facts about Cancun to keep you motivated:

  1. The average annual temperature in Cancun is 80 degrees Fahrenheit, arguably the most perfect temperature of all temperatures.
  2. Cancun is wonderfully sunny 240 days of the year. The other days may have a cloud or two, maybe even a little rain… but they call it paradise for good reason.
  3. Cancun’s beaches have white sand, which is made from crushed coral and is not hot to the touch. Just think: Mother Nature spent all that time crushing up coral so you’d have a comfy place to relax next March.
  4. In early 2010,

    there was a major beach restoration project that included the rebuilding of the beaches in Cancun, Playa del Carmen, and Cozumel. The Mexican government invested $71 million US Dollars in the project, which restored 11 kilometers of the area’s beaches. Again, all that money was spent just for you, so that you would have a comfy place to relax with us next March.

  5. “Cancun” is the Mayan word for “Nest of Snakes.” I guess snakes are pretty smart. Who wouldn’t want a nest in paradise? For those afraid of snakes… don’t worry. Statistically, you will have a very, very small chance of encountering a snake while vacationing at the Moon Palace with us.
  6. This Cancun vacation will be very fun. We will have much more fun, however, if you are with us. That’s a fact.

Remember, you have until the end of the year to make this happen. We’ll be staying at the luxurious Moon Palace Golf & Spa Resort from March 20-23 and we are extremely excited. For more information on what it takes to qualify for this Cancun vacation on Synergy’s dime, click here.
