Dr. Tim's Story

Whether traveling by dugout canoe up an isolated Amazonian tributary looking for acai and camu camu, or on the back of an elephant into the mountain groves of Thailand for mangosteen, or trekking into the foothills of Tibet for goji, or hiking through Polynesian valleys and coastlines for noni and coconut water, I have endured the elements on seemingly endless expeditions just to find the right fruit from the right spot to make our juices right for you!

I also developed the cold concentration technology known as "Cryoflux" where we literally freeze the water out of the fruit juice. This leaves a thick, rich, potent, biologically active and delicious juice. I go to all of this trouble because quality, taste and value are important and I want my juice to make a difference in your life and in the lives of all of our great customers. I guarantee the quality and taste of all of our juices and put my name on every bottle.

The Science Of Cryoflux

Dr. Tim developed "Cryoflux", which is a proprietary trademark process for concentrating fruit juice that preserves the bioactive constituents, flavor and color of juice from any fruit. This process was developed in response to the unsatisfactory results obtained from traditional heat, evaporation, pressure, and vacuum methods. These methods although useful in providing a concentrate of juice typically alter the basic condition and inactivate the bioactive constituents. As most companies know and have come to accept as one of the unavoidable hazards of doing business in this industry, these heat, vacuum and pressure concentrating methods change the basic flavor of the juice as well as imparting a “"burnt" essence to the final product.

Dr. Tim's Cryoflux technology not only protects the bioactive nature of the juice but also preserves the condition and improves upon the flavor. No artificial smell or taste, nor burnt essence is ever detected with the Cryoflux process. This means that when using Cryoflux concentrated juice in full strength, diluted or reconstituted forms the final product will always taste as fresh as tree/ vine ripened fruit. Another challenge with these traditionally used processes was the inordinate loss of product. It is not uncommon using these traditional methods to lose a greater percentage of raw materials than end product created. That makes sense since this is a method of concentrating fluids. However Dr. Tim's trademark Cryoflux technology retains nearly 100% of total volume. By doing this we are able to control the quality and volume of our concentrate. Cryoflux concentration process retains nearly 100% of the juice producing the most pure concentrate possible.

Dr. Tim's trademark Cryoflux concentrate is a process that involves the manipulation of the physical qualities of ice and maximizing the integrity of the fruit and or juice. Great care is taken in the determination of the freezing point of the substrate or fruit juice. After sending this data through a series of calculations the appropriate crystal size is determined for optimal juice encapsulation and suspension. Ice-juice slurry is then created and passed through our proprietary bioactive-flavor-augmentation module. The resultant material is then re-crystallized. The next step involves a very critical mathematical analysis of the ice crystal to solid ratio thereby allowing the re-crystallized material to self separate eventually causing the encapsulated frozen juice suspension to migrate into the cryogenic collection chamber. It is in this chamber where the juice is concentrated through an entirely natural process. The cryogenic chamber is flushed and the resultant material is sent to the Cryoflux chamber where the juice takes on its final flavor enhancement and bioactive energizing characteristics via Dr. Tim's revolutionary concentrating process. The concentrate is never forced under pressure or heat. This is what separates Dr. Tim's Cryoflux concentrate from all others.

Advantages Of Cryoflux Concentrate

  1. Preserves and enhances the natural flavor of the juice
  2. Preserves all of the bioactive components of the juice
  3. Virtually no loss of raw material
  4. Concentrate can be pasteurized
  5. Juice remains as natural as fresh squeezed or pressed
  6. No burnt essence or taste
  7. No heat, pressure, vacuum, evaporation or any other damage is applied to the raw material.



Testimonials

My husband is no longer on blood pressure meds after taking Acai and Acai and Noni/ Mangosteen. Naps are no longer needed either and a lot of the aches and pains have diminished. We live at 9700 feet and the extra energy we both have from taking the Acai is really helpful---and not needing as much sleep at night is an extra bonus!

Thank you for sending the newest blend as you'd promised. This we did enjoy over the original blend and will continue using your product if this newer blend remains. In that regard should you receive individual order reviews of the daily processing you will find I have ordered again from you this afternoon. Of the 5 bottles placed with you two are going to be consumed by a colleague of mine who has knee trouble from firefighting over a good number of years. I'm sure they too will find this product helpful as I have. Best regards,

I want to thank you so much for supplying such a great product at an affordable price. My wife has been plagued with Plantar Fasciitis for the past five years, limiting the vacationing we like to do since she could only walk short distances. We have tried several products over the years, including Reliv, and all the recommended exercises and nothing worked. My cousin sells Monavie and we were tempted to try it but couldn't afford it and didn't like the program. I stumbled across Dr. Tim's site while searching on Google and after using the Acai juice for 3 months, her Plantar Fasciitis is gone! She can be on her feet all day and her foot doesn't hurt one bit! I have also been using the Acai and Mangosteen and my Asthma is controlled without the use of Advair, which I've used for years and my eczema is greatly reduced. Thank you so much Dr. Tim!!

I purchased 4 bottles, 1 each of Goji, Acai, Noni and Mangosteen. I mix 1 oz of each together just before bedtime. I am sleeping better than I have ever slept before and wake up feeling refreshed. As an added benefit, my skin looks great. I guess it must be all the vitamin C. Anyway, a friend recommended your products and I couldn't be more pleased. I am very impressed with the technology used to extract the benefits from the berries by using the freezing; very innovative. The bottles were shipped quickly and are very durable. I will be using this new regime for a long long time. Thanks for such a superb line of products and such fast shipping. I especially appreciate the fact that there are no articifical additives, preservatives, or sugars added since that would detract from the value of all the good nutrients. Great job. Thanks

I want you to know I was delighted to receive my order in fewer than 48 hours after I placed it with you. Before I even opened the product, I was impressed. I have been using the product for two weeks now, and I am even more impressed. I will certainly be placing another order soon. Sincerely,

Jennifer D.



Frequently Asked Questions

How is your juice processed?

Let me tell you how all acai comes into the US. Acai is so delicate after it is picked that it has to be processed within 3 to 4 hours before the fruit begins to go bad. When I am in Belem I always head out to the tributaries and visit the river dwellers deep in the jungle. They make a life out of the early morning harvest. They are always surprised when I ride along with them in their little motorized canoes as they bring their baskets of fresh picked acai to the collection points. I have to admit that with the water a cloudy brown color you never really know what is swimming along with you. Anyway, the acai is then collected and brought to the processing plants. All acai is processed the same to this point. The thin purple flesh and skin is then removed and mixed with water to form a very thick purple porridge. At this point we use our cold processing to preserve the bioactivity of the juice. We call it Cryoflux concentrate because we are able to remove some of the water with out negatively affecting the juice.

None of our competitors do this. From here many other companies have the juice freeze dried or spray dried. This reduces the juice to a powder. These powders have been proven to be less potent and not nearly bioactive as our juice. All acai juice is frozen or else it will spoil. All of our competitors use one or a combination of the following; thawed acai juice, acai freeze dried powder, acai spray dried powder or a very thin diluted acai. Our acai is the most potent and bioactive on the market. Because we manage the process from the jungle to the shelf and have our own bottling facility as well as our own processing techniques we are able to put 85% acai in each bottle that is 100% certified organic at the very best price. Our competitors only use 10-20% acai in their products. We know because we have tested them.

What Is The Most Effective Way Of Taking Nutritional Supplements?

Liquids such as pure natural fruit juice do not have binders that pills use to hold molecules together or agents which help break them up. Dr. Tim's Exotic Juices do not contain artificial colors, flavors, sweeteners, coating materials which are normally used in pills which may also be harmful to you health.

Most of the time nutritional supplement pills or capsules are inconvenient to swallow or use without having a glass of water. Natural super juices can be taken easily and quickly. Taking vitamin pills can also be wasteful. The Physician's Desk Reference, one of the premier reference books for doctors, mentions that while only 10 to 20% of the contents of a vitamin pills can be absorbed by the body, nearly 98% of the nutrients contained in liquid vitamins are available to the body. This means you could be wasting 90% of the cost of vitamin pills.

With exotic super juices, most of the nutrients are absorbed into they body and not wasted. With Dr. Tim, you can spend less that $15 for a month's supply of super juices. Buying the same of vitamins in pill form, would cost you over $300. Dr. Tim's super juices allows you to have the right amount of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and amino acids in a balanced ratio which can allow for maximum absorption and minimum wastage.

Acai, an exotic plant also sold in pill form, is a great berry but some unscrupulous "Acai Berry Diet Pill" companies are conning you with is nothing more than placebo powder! Authentic Brazilian acai berries are rich in anti-oxidants and are very healthy for you in their natural state or as a juice, but the pills that are being offered are based out of multidextrin which is nothing more than dried corn starch powder! Their "diet pills" may also contain: Croscamellose Sodium, Magnesium Stearate, Silicon Dioxide, Calcium Silicate, Stearic Acid and Dicalcium Phosphate. Where's the Acai?
