There is a new liquid "nutritional" product out on the marketplace that caught my attention. Now, it didn't catch my attention because of a revolutionary compensation plan (it's a copy of a couple of other companies). What caught my attention is the product.
How do I put this? It's Salt Water!
This company wants you to buy a case of Salt Water for $150.
Seriously, I took a screen capture of the label:
Ingredients: Distilled Water and Sodium Chloride. Uhhhh, that's Salt Water!
The site has a whole bunch of mumbo jumbo simulated science, but the label is pretty clear.

Much insight can be gained by considering the taste of ASEA. We are consuming the world’s first and only, native redox molecular supplement. Not surprisingly therefore, it has many special properties, some of which are reflected in its taste. Although most people find ASEA to be mild or refreshing, others may report the taste of something like “pool water,” or chlorine. These and other tastes are sensed predominantly through olfactory lobes and not by the tongue. Taste buds on the tongue respond to just four flavors: salty, sour, bitter and sweet. Much of what we commonly think of as taste is actually smell. Redox molecules in ASEA trigger olfactory sensation to the extent that our internal chemistry is deficient in redox molecules. Some people can detect the presence of hydrogen peroxide, for example, one of sixteen redox molecules in ASEA. This “taste” is actually a smell via olfactory sensation, and may simply indicate an imbalance in our own body chemistry. As we continue to consume ASEA, our experience with it evolves. The perceived flavor shifts toward a more bland water-like quality, as we gradually lose the ability to distinguish the presence of redox molecules. This happens when redox molecules are replenished within our olfactory lobes and other tissues. Our own body chemistry begins to approximate an optimal equilibrium of eight reductant redox molecules paired with eight oxidants. On a cellular level, this is the balance of health and youth that ASEA helps us to regain. How ASEA is Made: ASEA is made in Utah from municipal water that is highly purified using both reverse osmosis and distillation. The pure water is then combined with pure salt and allowed to cure, before undergoing a patented process that oxidizes and reduces the saline solution into the final product. During processing most of the chloride ions are integrated into redox molecules. Sodium ions are not effected and help to maintain electrical neutrality. Hydrogen and oxygen also contribute to the formation of redox molecules, but most of the water forms a matrix of clusters around the active redox molecules and ions. This micro-clustering further contributes to the stability and electrical neutrality of the product. The final product is no longer a saline solution. It is not salt and water. It is a balanced buffet of redox molecules. The raw materials have been transformed into a new product. Ingredients: Some people ask why redox Molecules are not listed as an ingredient on each bottle of ASEA. By comparison, when we look at the ingredients on a loaf of bread, we find flour, water, eggs, sugar, oil, yeast, etc. Nowhere on the list does it say “bread”. The raw ingredients have been blended and heated and forever transformed. You can no longer locate the eggs or oil that we know went into the process. It’s the same with ASEA. The beginning ingredients are salt and water. The finished product is something very different. Sodium Content: Typically, adults consume 4,000 mg of sodium daily. Restricted diets may be set to 1,500 mg. One piece of whole wheat bread contains 210 mg of sodium. ASEA contains 123 mg of sodium in 4 ounces, the standard daily allotment. Safety & Assimilation: ASEA is transparent to pharmaceuticals and neutraceuticals. It does not interact, interfere or conflict with anything else you are eating or taking. ASEA is not metabolized by our internal organs but is assimilated, like water, through simple diffusion. The redox molecules in ASEA, as in our cells, are composed of just four tiny atoms, or fewer, and are essentially the size of H2O.

HEY that's OK to disagree! I'm a nurse and in sincer honesty believe REDOX Signaling and ASEA are on the cutting edge of Health Care today. Look at PCN [ penicillin ] when it was a fungus when it was discovered how yuchy is that…ICHY! You TY are a MLM specialist..the go to guy for answers. I always use a specialist when I have something important to do..I want to learn so teach me about MLM.

My Asea Testamonial: by Dave Bachand 50 yrs old.
Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.
Before I started my redox signaling treatment on Dec 27/2010 these were the health problems that I had been facing. Please know that I have a viral disease that leads to swelling (inflammation) of the liver and did the Riboviron & Pegetron experimental drug treatment for one year, with no luck and the meds left me with liver pain, kidney pain, dizziness, bleeding gums & nasal passages, sadness, panic attacks, high blood pressure, high heart rate, heart palpitations, yellowing in my skin and eyes, swollen lymph nodes, extreme shoulder & neck pain, feet and hip pain, fatigue, poor sleeping habits, extreme cold in all extremities, unable to regulate body heat, poor concentration, extreme irritability, no libido, breathing problems, joint pain, bad breath, hair loss, poor vision, prostate and bowel problems, constant cracking skin on my finger tips. I am not the only one that was left like that and I will not be the last!
Within one week of using redox signaling, these things started clearing up (some faster than others) and I have had no signs for over 16 months of any of the above health issues. My family Doctor of 30 yrs and my chiropractor are so shocked about my recovery that they basically have wrote it off as the placebo affect. (Please)
Ty…what miracle cream or life saving juice are you trying to protect. The science is real and the patents are secured for this technology. I have been to most of these sites for you people trying to protect your down lines for the product that you are selling and every last person runs away when we want to talk real science. Now….do your research on Redox Signaling and then I will explain the equipment and the chemical reactions that take place in order to reproduce these molecules. "GET A GRIP MAN".
Nolan Colburn Obviously you don't know what you are talking about!! First of all, the placebo effect does not pertain to animals. I, personally, know what it has done for dogs when prescription drugs from a veterinarian did not work. I've been taking Asea for close to 2 years and no longer experience joint pain, my energy level has increased, my allergies are almost nonexistent, no longer have eye "floaters", and more. I know many others who have benefitted who have severe ailments, were bedridden, extremely ill and have regained their health and life after ingesting Asea. The company can provide test results proving the effectiveness of Asea. Contact them and you will get the facts straight!
Oh yes, I am now an associate with Asea, however, I too was skeptical. After I realized my results (3 to 6 mos.) from using Asea is when I became an associate–NOT BEFORE.
Three things here
There is no doubt that the “science” surrounding redox therapy is compelling. I think the issue here is whetehr or not Asea actually represents that evidence. There doesn’t seem to be any way to verify the existence of the amazing 16 ingredients that are “perfectly balanced” sets of redox a & b it claims to posses. If it’s not on the ingredient label how can we know? Even if it just listed the ingredientas something like “proprietary blend” in a saline supension. But I’ve seen nothing that claims this.
It may work. I don’t know. The only way to know is to try it or to have independednt tests done and reported on. But there seems to be a sort of fanaticism associated with those who have “bought” into this product that seems to be more akin to a fear of the business failing than of if the product works or not. The argument for the product here are filled with so many logic errors that any thinking person cannot possibly take them to be proof. Not to be too pinted but Ms. Paxman’s efforts while impassioned are poorly reasoned, much as if I sang the song “The Sun will come out” from the play “Annie” in order to explain the helio centric nature of the soloar system. They both mention the sun but the one does not prove the other in any way just as referencing the science does not proove the product actually contains anything related to it. Nor does the response from Redox Redoxhrvatska, have anything to do with it as I can drink alt water or sugar water of a particular strength and eventually not tast the added ingredient. That doesn’t mean it has any mysterious ingredient that my body finally got enough of. All it means is that I got used to the taste and now have to put more into it to tast it.
What really bothers me is why can I not by it without becomeing an “associate”? I don’t want to sell cars I want to drive one. I don’t to sell corn or carrots or green bean or hamburgers but I go to the grocer to get some for me.
Let me buy it for my own use without forcing to buy in to the “program”.
Until they do that and allow their product to succeed or fail on the open free market, I find all the proof I need that the product is a fraud just like all those other MLM products out there that are watered down diluted over priced or plain false.
Hey Ty,
You are going to have to learn Spanish, Italian, Croatian, Irish and French now…so you can tell the people from the other countries that are using Asea now and are having positive affects that Redox Signaling ( Asea ) is not real….sounds like a losing battle…come and join the health revolution we all call *ASEA*.
Good for you Dave…. Keep the faith!
ASEA is ASEA in every language!
I guess I am always looking for the answer to health concerns, but when the ASEA conversation came about I wasn’t expecting it. I have been actively pursuing natural solutions without side effects and living in a food desert makes one feel often isolated because many don’t comprehend my concern with food-like products. So when given the opportunity to get a sample, I too was truly skeptical but am looking for holistic solution approaches to handling my families’ health concerns. My es-husband has allergies which have been passed to my elementary age children. We have been to Dermatologist, Pediatricians, Allergist and leaning towards whole foods. My children are allergic to peanuts, soy, shellfish, dust mites, cats, dogs, Bermuda grass, Timothy grass, and more. They also have dermatitis of the skin and either get nose bleeds or awake with this cough attempting to break up the phlegm.
For the last several years I have been using every remedy and pill known to man to stop the itching and in the winter and spring the itching seems to be worse. Was told about ASEA and provided a sample from a friend that I respect but if something doesn’t work it doesn’t work. Because I feel I am on the right track, with my child that has the least amount of allergies there isn’t any scaring just itching on the back and legs but my other child is worse. We have been using this product as just a topical spray in the areas of concern and like I said, I didn’t expect much and didn’t tell my children much, just put it into the routine of what we have been doing and stopped the aloe for a few days.
The doctors say it is either dry skin or in their mind, but I am the one that is having to deal with this daily routine. But the last few days have been blissful and at first I couldn’t figure out what was different. This morning I asked my children what is going on, I have been sleeping between my children so that I can minimalize the scaring of the scratching and listen for the congestion during the night on one and offering a rub instead of a scratch of legs and back on the other. It hasn’t happened the last few nights.
They are sleeping through the night peacefully and not scratching themselves up during the day or night and the only difference that I have introduced in the last few months has been the ASEA. I am only about a week in but if I can continue to get a good nights sleep without sleeping between them so I am there for the itching, scratching and other symptoms that come from their allergies. I will be tracking the progress and if it continues, I am in. Do you know what it is like to be a single parent, living close to no family and not really getting a good nights sleep because I am constantly on alert for my children? The last week has been wonderful and if this keeps up, we will 1. Know that all so called Salt Water as you called is not created equal and 2. Because of its non side effects status, I will be totally in because man-made drugs don’t do that and, 3. I will be calling my brother to get his lab result opinion and 4. We will be an ASEA family. I also have a child in college with health issues and I am trying it on my own health concerns. None fatal, just apparent enough to be irritating. Thanking ASEA for the surprising benefits.
I am not going to say that Asea has done a lot for me, but I will say this: I don't work out, but three days ago I rode a twenty four speed bike for almost 10 miles without stretching until the half way point. I stretched each leg for about fifteen seconds then got back on the bike and rode back to my hotel to return the bike to the owner. No pain from then til now. Also, my hip woke me up out of my sleep for months before getting on Asea. My wife hasn't complained to me about her sinuses and both my grandmother and mother have a lot to say that it has done for her.
You can say what you want about the stuff being salt water, but all I know, I can't second your motion. I even revamped my website that I was selling my first novel on to write about the importance of cellular health and wellness.
I began taking ASEA nearly two years ago. I do not sell (MLM) the product at this time, only use it, so I have no income to protect by trumpeting the product. If you understand chemistry at all and read up on the product it makes real sense. Those who want to disparage the product either haven't really tried it for any period of time or refuse to look at the science involved. It is not snake oil as one uninfomed gentleman proclaimed nor is it cure all. It is a product that can enhance your overall health at the cellular level, which is whole new concept in supplements. I don't feel the need to convince anyone if its benefits, because it works for me and that is good enough. My chronic nasa/sinus issues have been completely resolved, and my energy level has not been at this level since I was in my 30's and I'm now over 60. If it taste like pool water, then that is a signal as to how far your body is misalligned at the cellular level. The taste will neutralize as your body begins to improve to a younger cellular stage, which I believe time will show as this product gets broader usage. I encourage people to try it, as I believe it will lead to a healthier stronger being in just a few months. (please excuse my typing errors, and there are probably several!)
I happen to be a firm believer of asea. My aunt brought it up to my family n without it a couple members wld of been dead by now. Im just saying believe what u will but it works it may taste like salt water but it works.
Asea is the single greatest health breakthrough of our generation. I’ve seen too many personal testimonies of the people I love be changed with this product. It’s amazing!
ASEA Metabolite Findings FAQ.
Q. Who conducted this research?
A. This research took place at the North Carolina Research.
Institute, a collaborative entity involving seven.
universities (Duke, UNC Chapel Hill, NC State, UNC.
Charlotte, NC Central, NC A&T State, UNC Greensboro,
Appalachian State). The research was led by the Appalachian.
State University’s Human Performance Laboratory.
under the direction of Dr. David Nieman. Dr. Nieman
and his team of Ph.Ds. are renowned for their rigorous.
research into the effects of supplementation on exercise.
and exertion.
Q. How was the research conducted?
A. The research team selected 20 highly fit cyclists, then.
randomized them into two groups of 10. Using doubleblinded
techniques in which neither the athletes nor.
the researchers knew which group received ASEA and.
which received a placebo, one group drank four ounces.
of ASEA each day for seven days, while the other drank.
equal amounts of placebo. At the end of seven days,
both groups undertook a 75-km cycling trial. Blood was
drawn immediately before the trial, immediately after,
and one hour after.
After a washout period in which the athletes drank.
neither ASEA nor placebo, the crossover portion of the.
research took place. Again double-blinded, the original.
ASEA group now drank the placebo for seven days, and.
the original placebo group drank ASEA. At the end of the.
seven days, both groups did the same 75-km cycling trial,
and blood was drawn just as before.
Q. What was used as a placebo?
A. The answer to this question is extremely enlightening,
especially if you’ve ever heard someone say that ASEA.
is just salt water. In the research that was conducted by.
the Human Performance Laboratory, the placebo was salt.
water! In other words, the research compared ASEA to.
salt water and found significant and substantial differences,
so there is no way anyone can ever say that ASEA.
is simply salt water.
Q. What were the results of the research?
A. The researchers expected to see some difference in.
metabolite shift between ASEA and the placebo. However,
they expected to see those shifts AFTER exercise, since.
most researched supplements express metabolite shifts.
due to the combination of supplement and exercise.
To their surprise, they found that athletes who drank.
ASEA experienced a significant shift in metabolites PRIOR.
to exercise. In total, researchers found a shift in 43.
metabolites simply from drinking ASEA, even before they.
began to cycle. The results were so extraordinary that Dr.
Neiman said, “When I saw it, I couldn’t believe it.”.
Q. What are metabolites?
A. Metabolism is the name we give to the chemical reactions.
that take place inside our cells in order to sustain.
life. Metabolites are the molecules that participate in our.
metabolism cycles. They are very small molecules in the.
blood that shift in response to supplementation and/or exercise.
Metabolomics, the study of these metabolite shifts,
is the very latest tool used by researchers to understand.
what effects supplementation has in the human body.
Q. Why was this shift in metabolites so surprising.
to the researchers?
A. In this research, 108 metabolites were mapped, and.
so the first thing that caught the scientists off guard was.
that a shift in 43 metabolites represented about 40% of.
the total. When you consider that most supplements may.
shift 10-20 metabolites, the sheer number of shifts was.
enough to get the researchers’ attention.
But even more surprising, these shifts occurred PRIOR to.
exercise. Most supplements tested by the Human Performance.
Lab express metabolite shifts AFTER exercise. In
other words, most supplements cause metabolite shifts.
when combined with exercise. ASEA, on the other hand,
caused a major shift in metabolites even before the athletes.
began cycling. Simply drinking ASEA caused these.
shifts.
Q. What do these metabolite shifts mean?
A. The specific metabolite shifts in the athletes who.
drank ASEA pointed mostly to a vast mobilization of free.
fatty acids. Fatty acids are the main source of fuel for the.
body, and they mostly come from fat stores in the body.
known as adipose tissue.
Q. Free fatty acids? Why is that significant?
A. When anyone, athlete or not, begins to exercise, the.
muscles need fuel. Initially, the fuel source for this physical.
effort is blood glucose and muscle glycogen. When
muscle glycogen is depleted, the body shifts to another.
source of fuel: fatty acids from adipose tissue. The body
converts triglycerides in adipose tissue into free fatty.
acids, which “mobilizes” those fatty acids – puts them in.
the blood stream for the muscles to use as fuel.
What makes the research results so surprising is that even.
before exercise – before using muscle glycogen to the.
point of depletion – fatty acids are mobilized and ready.
to use as fuel for the muscles. The body is being “primed.
for exercise,” as one Ph.D. on the research team put it.
Q. What effect does this have on muscle glycogen?
A. The implication is that muscle glycogen is likely being.
spared by drinking ASEA. While further research is being.
done to confirm this, the ramifications are huge. Athletes
take months to train their bodies to spare glycogen and.
use fatty acids as fuel. And here it appears to be happening.
simply from drinking ASEA.
Q. What if I’m not an athlete? Does this research mean anything for me?
A. The mobilization of free fatty acids is incredible news for athletes, but it also has meaning for the rest of us, as well. Once these fatty acids are mobilized, they will.
be used by the body as fuel. They are the primary fuel.
source for a body at rest. The body needs fuel simply to.
stay alive, so the freed-up fatty acids will be burned no.
matter what.
Q. Does this make ASEA a weight-loss product?
A. It is wrong to think of ASEA as a weight-loss product.
Exercise is a weight-loss product. Proper nutrition is a.
weight-loss product. But that said, one very clear conclusion.
coming from the research is this: If you want to burn.
more fat during exercise, drink ASEA.
Q. I understand that the research also indicated.
an increase in ascorbic acid. What does that.
mean?
A. The research did show a spike in the body’s production.
of ascorbic acid post-exercise, but it’s simply too.
early to draw any conclusions about what this means.
Further research will be done to learn more.
Q. How does Redox Signaling tie into this research?
A. Redox Signaling works on a cellular level, and its.
primary functions ensure the ongoing vitality of our cells,
including proper cell metabolism. Metabolites are the.
“fingerprints” left behind during cell metabolism, an.
indication of the chemical reactions that take place inside.
the cell.
This research helps reveal some of the effects of.
the world’s first and only Redox Signaling supplement on.
cell metabolism.
More than 16 years ago a group of medical professionals, engineers, and researchers discovered a proprietary method for creating and stabilizing molecules native to the human body.
Years later, the scientific research community began producing the science necessary to understand what this group had begun to discover.
In 2007, Verdis Norton, the co-founder of ASEA™, who was for years associated in a leadership position with one of the largest and most successful corporations in the world, became acquainted with the ASEA technology and was immediately convinced that ASEA™ could be instrumental in changing the lives of thousands, if not millions of people.
During a round of golf one day with James Pack, a friend and close associate, Mr. Norton discussed the ASEA™ technology, its unlimited potential, and his vision for the technology. Jim, well acquainted with Verdis’ strategic perspective and business sense knew immediately that the business would thrive. Right there on the green, Jim wrote Verdis an endorsement check and together, the partners acquired the technology and founded ASEA™.
Once plans were set in place to market ASEA™ as proprietary technology, a medical physicist and PhD, was engaged to begin conducting additional research on the Asea technology. This research has helped develop a better and more comprehensive understanding of the role of reactive molecules in the body and how Asea functions to support fortify healthy cells.
ASEA™ is a patented product, based on proprietary technology that has been studied, tested, and proven beneficial for cellular health and immune system supplementation. The patented process formulates a unique and amazingly effective product that boosts the immune system and promotes cellular balance.
The end result is a more energetic and better feeling you!
I saw my sister in law yesterday for the first time in months. She had been almost bedridden then, weak, hardly moving out off her easy chair. She told me that she had been taking ASEA Redox and was feeling fantastic, lots more energy, and had no intention of stopping its use. She loved it. I read Aaron Murakami's article on Redox Signaling Molecules completely. I thought, Hmmmm, just water. However, after reviewing Dr Emoto's research on water, I would highly recommend it, based on my own research, and family reports.
