President, The Healthy Edge For Life
Public, Sole Proprietor employees, Healthcare / HMOs industryThe Healthy Edge For Life is an independent marketing company for Rain Nutrition which provides wellness and energy drinks loaded in antioxidants, essential fatty acids, vitamins, minerals and nutrients. Neutralize and eliminate oxidation and increase energy, endurance, power and mental focus. The History, Background and Benefits of Rain Nutrition The story and background of Dr. Arnold S. Leonard and Rain Nutrition dates back over 50 years to when Dr. Leonard embarked on a medical career that would soon begin saving, prolonging and improving the lives of so many others through the research, treatment and rehabilitation he provided and oversaw at the Univeristy of Minnesota. Now, years later, Dr. Leonard gets to see his dream taken one step further with the introduction of Rain Nutrition and their incredible products that are, in the health and wellness industry, truly in a league of their own. The foundation for Rain Nutrition came from Dr. Leonard’s 50 years of service and nearly 2 decades of clinical studies, but the origin of Rain Nutrition, from the history behind the company and Toby's initial meetings with Dr. Leonard, to the production of the Rain Nutrition products, is truly inspirational and highly enlightening. Dr. Arnold S. Leonard is the founder of the ASL (Arnold S. Leonard) Cancer Fund that originated 17 years ago as a way for children and parents to pay for medical expenses. Dr. Leonard was the head of the pediatric and thyroid cancer research and surgery department at the University of Minnesota. His goal was to find a way to offset the costs of the travel, hotels, and medical expenses, and allow for the parents to be with their children through the traumatic time of cancer treatment, surgery and rehabilitation. Toby Norton, President of Rain Nutrition, was introduced to the ASL Cancer Fund, and Dr. Arnold S. Leonard, through a mutual friend. After meeting with, and researching, the doctor he began to see just how truly amazing Dr. Leonard was and the incredible results he had found through his decades of clinical studies. Toby soon further found out that Dr. Leonard, through his 50 years of service, was involved in some of the very first open heart surgeries and that Dr. Leonard had over 250 medical publications to his name. As Toby describes the brilliance of Dr. Leonard, he says “Have you ever wondered what it is like to be the smartest guy in the room? Dr. Leonard knows what that is like. He is that guy.” In the past 2 decades Dr. Leonard has taken a very re-active situation, in health and wellness, and become very pro-active in it. He decided to start exploring why the body deteriorates the way that it does. He wanted to know why we are having all these increases in heart disease, cancer, diabetes, and malnutrition. As he began to research these issues, he began to find that our bodies are becoming more and more infected with free radical stress. Further research indicated that all this free radical stress was causing oxidation. Oxidation in our bodies is seen as rust and erodes our bodies from the inside out. Our bodies are building oxidation daily through our regular every day lives. Think of a ripe yellow banana that as time goes on begins to discolor and turn brown, that is oxidation at work causing inflammation that works from the inside out. Free radical stress causes oxidation, which in turn causes inflammation, and in our bodies it works like a vicious cycle because the inflammation causes more free radical stress, which causes additional oxidation, which causes further inflammation. Although words like free radical, oxidation and inflammation are buzz words today, Dr. Leonard began researching them nearly 2 decades ago. He is a true pioneer in the wellness movement. As Dr. Leonard began to realize the importance of antioxidants, he further realized that not only would antioxidants greatly assist in the reduction of heart disease, cancer and diabetes, it would also dramatically reduce the deaths from over-medication and cross-medication, which is the #3 leading killer in our society today behind only heart disease and cancer Dr. Leonard began studying literally hundreds of antioxidants and as he continued his research he began to find that certain antioxidants, at certain levels, greatly reduced the amount of free radical stress and thus oxidation. Toby, during his meetings with Dr. Leonard, asked how they could utilize this research and allow it to be taken worldwide. He indicated to Dr. Leonard he had experience at building companies and had ideas on how they could develop a company to offer these powerful antioxidants to the world. Thus the groundwork for Rain Nutrition was being laid and in July of 2009 Rain Nutrition began production of their first 2 products, SOUL and RUSH. SOUL is Rain Nutrition’s flagship product and is offered in a simple 3oz. shot that contains the equivalent of 8lbs. of antioxidant rich fruit. As stated, it is extremely rich in free radical fighting antioxidants and loaded with essential fatty acids is no ordinary supplement. SOUL is absolutely extraordinary. The proprietary blend of Black Raspberry, Black Cumin, Chardonnay Grape, and D-Ribose in SOUL help replace cell energy, have excellent anti-inflammatory properties, and help support a healthy immune system. The added bonus of the powerhouse antioxidant, Resveratrol, found in the Chardonnay Grape, may also enhance heart, muscle, brain, and kidney health. It has been hailed as one of the most important anti-aging supplements ever discovered. Did you know that most seeds make up a very small percentage of the total weight of a berry or flower, but they often contain the most potent health benefits in their tiny packages. The foundation of all of our products at Rain Nutrition, are the seeds. We have all heard of the amazing antioxidant power in berries and herbs, but what no one has ever explained properly are the best parts of those berries... the seeds. In SOUL you get the one-two punch of the Black Raspberry Seed, hailed for it's immune system strengthening properties, and Black Cumin Seed, loaded with Omega 3 and Omega 6 essential fatty acids. While the incredible antioxidants found in both Black Cumin Seeds and Black Raspberry Seeds fight the harmful effects of free radicals, the essential fatty acids found in the Omegas support the and help repair cell membranes. The seeds are the heroes in this remarkable product. They are the storehouses of the antioxidants and when treated properly, through our cold press process, yield better results than ever imagined. RUSH is Rain Nutrition’s energy super boost that will not only greatly increase your energy, but also your endurance and power, while also improving your mental focus. This natural energy supplement will give you the fuel you need while supporting your long-term health with an unparalleled combination of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. RUSH'S unique combination of free radical fighting antioxidants and proprietary energy blend put it in to a class by itself. The added bonus of essential vitamins C, B6, and B12 make it truly unbeatable. Other energy drinks may provide empty calories and may be loaded with synthetic stimulants that can make you jittery and can be crash-inducing. RUSH is a healthy blend of natural ingredients and extracts from botanical seeds. This refreshing and energizing drink is delivered in a convenient 8.4 oz. can that you can easily grab on the go and enjoy as needed to gain natural sustained energy. RUSH gets its antioxidant power from the Chardonnay grape and blueberry seeds. Both have long been favorites in the fight against free radicals. Rain's proprietary blend of these two tops the scales at 4,000mg to provide RUSH with a sweet berry-grape flavor that is better for you than you know. Blueberries, with their dark pigmented skin, are well known to the health conscious as an antioxidant rich fruit that may also help with inflammation and may benefit cardiovascular health. The Chardonnay grape contains a powerful antioxidant resveratrol, an antioxidant currently touted as one of the best anti-aging supplements ever discovered. Furthermore, Rain Nutrition uses a cold press process. This process gently presses and separates the seeds into oils and flours without the use of heat or chemicals. This process is done in such a way that the extracted oils and flours are preserved in their natural state ensuring that Rain's products maintain exceptional potency and richness. This process has been long used in Europe and other parts of the world because of its ability to ensure nutritionally rich extracts that ensure exceptional efficacy. Most manufacturers use very high temperatures, and some use harsh chemicals and synthetic processes to extract the nutrients from natural botanicals. The resulting extracts are left without valuable nutrients and sometimes have harmful residue from the process. Rain Nutrition employs an extraction process that has been certified organic, is chemical-free, and that uses the lowest possible temperatures. The products that Rain has created and will create over time will use only extracts from this process. It will ensure the finest possible result every time. You can be certain that the products you are taking are pure, natural, and nutritionally rich. Dr. Leonard and Rain Nutrition have united to offer the world an incredibly healthy product line that is destined to revolutionize the health and wellness industry. The story of Dr. Leonard is both commendable and inspirational and Rain Nutrition's products are absolutely cutting edge and in a class of their own. Rain Nutrition has arrived and an entire population, children and adults alike, now have the opportunity to live their best life today.
