Health Information about Health Care Reform Weekly June 6 2011

Week of June 6, 2011

While the Affordable Care Act’s (ACA) medical loss ratio (MLR) and rate review provisions have been getting most of the media attention, a new coalition of business organizations has come together to draw attention to another important requirement of the ACA. Calling themselves Stop the HIT on Small Business, more than 25 national business organizations have joined forces to work toward repeal of new taxes the ACA would impose on private health insurance starting in 2014. Business leaders behind the effort say that small business owners, their employees and the self-employed will ultimately bear the brunt of $ 87 billion in additional health care costs in the first 10 years as a result of the new taxes. The group is planning Capitol Hill outreaches and grassroots efforts.

Federal

Support is growing in Congress (over 80 co-sponsors) for Mike Rogers’ (R-MI) and John Barrows’ (D-GA) legislation that would exclude agent commissions from the MLR calculation.  Currently, commissions count as administrative expenses in calculating insurers’ MLRs.  This support was highlighted in a House hearing last week before the Health Subcommittee of the Energy & Commerce Committee, where the larger issue of the MLR burden was front and center.  Witnesses representing agents and brokers, insurers and academia all testified against the unintended, negative consequences of the MLR requirement, with agents and brokers in particular noting the direct financial impact to small business and individual agents and their families. The Rogers/Barrows bill would simply not factor commissions into the MLR calculation. The day before the hearing, Congressman Tom Price ((R-GA) introduced an even more aggressive bill, as his proposal would repeal outright the MLR provision of ACA.  While it is unlikely that either bill will get traction in the Senate on its own, bipartisan support for the agents and genuine concern about unintended consequences puts this issue in play as part of any potential mega-deal on the budget/deficit/debt ceiling issue over the next few months. The Senate was not in Session last week; and the House is out this week.

States

COLORADO: Governor John Hickenlooper last week signed into law a bill establishing the Colorado Health Benefit Exchange. The legislation created a fair amount of controversy during the session, particularly among “Tea Party” Republicans. However, the final product represents the culmination of a bipartisan effort that remained inclusive of the business, advocacy and insurance industry constituencies.

CONNECTICUT: Although adjournment is set for June 8, a number of significant bills are still in process. The legislature passed a bill over the weekend that would create a health insurance exchange. The bill is expected to be signed by Governor Dannel Malloy, as the legislation, as passed, is an amended version of a bill proposed by the Malloy administration. It would create an 11-member exchange board and set rules and responsibilities for the exchange, but many policy decisions would be left for resolution at a later time. The exchange must be financially self-supporting by 2015, and the bill would allow the exchange to charge assessments or user fees to health insurance carriers to fund operations. Some lawmakers questioned the cost of the exchange. However, the nonpartisan Office of Fiscal Analysis says the planning process is not expected to require additional state money. The bill calls for exchange board members to have expertise in specific subjects, including small employer health insurance coverage, health care delivery systems, access issues that self-employed people face, barriers to individual health care coverage, health care finance and benefits plan administration.

Additional bills yet to be passed by both Houses include the SustiNet bill, now amended to create a health care reform advisory board and allow municipalities and not-for-profits to join the state employees plan. Also, a prohibition on “most favored nation” clauses in provider contracts and a broad rate review bill that would require public hearings for all rate increases over 10 percent have yet to be acted on.

ILLINOIS: A spring session of the General Assembly dominated by redistricting, workers’ compensation, budget, pensions and gambling adjourned on May 31, 2011.  Minimal health care legislation passed by both chambers is awaiting signature by the governor. One important legislative development is that Aetna helped turn back attempts to amend the “non-participating” physician law that was passed last year and went into effect on June 1, 2011. The law protects consumers from being overbilled by certain out-of-network, hospital-based physicians (i.e., anesthesiologists, radiologists) who provide direct services in hospitals and ambulatory surgery treatment centers. Under the law, the patient is taken out of the middle as it ensures patients will pay no more than they would have paid to one of their carrier’s participating providers. In addition, the law allows either the physician or the insurer to use binding arbitration to resolve disputes over the reasonableness of charges or reimbursements.

Other health care bills defeated including taxes/insurance assessments; reporting of extensive premium loss data; and health insurance rate review.  Bills currently awaiting the governor’s signature include changes to the mental-health parity and clinical trials mandates, as well as insurer recoupment requirements that the industry ultimately agreed to.  Also, a health insurance exchange bill passed both chambers that would establish an exchange and appoint a study commission of legislators to report back to the Assembly by Sept. 30, 2011 regarding parameters for an exchange.  Follow-up legislation could potentially be considered in the fall veto session, beginning at the end of October 2011.

MAINE: Gov. Paul LePage and the legislature’s Republican leaders found a way to avoid an override of the Governor’s recent veto of the most-favored nation prohibition bill. The bill would bar insurers from requiring a health care provider to charge an insurance company the lowest rate the provider negotiates with any other insurance carrier. In his veto message on the bill, LePage said he strongly believes that businesses have a right to contract with each other as they deem appropriate. After some Republicans complained, LePage met last week with GOP leaders and co-chairs of the legislature’s Insurance and Financial Services Committee, which unanimously endorsed the bill last month.  Republican lawmakers agreed to vote to sustain the governor’s veto when the House acts on it, and the Governor agreed to submit compromise legislation. The new bill would ban most-favored nation clauses but also allow Maine’s superintendent of insurance to issue a waiver. It is unclear what conditions an insurer would have to meet to earn a waiver. The bill’s language is not yet available to the public. With session scheduled to adjourn June 15, the legislature is likely to wait until next year to take up the bill.

Governor LePage announced that Eric Cioppa, Deputy Superintendent of the Bureau of Insurance, Department of Professional and Financial will serve as Acting Superintendent effective immediately. Cioppa replaces former Superintendent Mila Kofman who resigned recently. In his former role as deputy superintendent, Cioppa was responsible for the Examination, Market Conduct, Financial Analysis, Alternative Risk Markets, Producer Licensing, Administrative Support Unit, and Research and Statistics Units of the Bureau.

MICHIGAN:  In the next couple of weeks, the state Senate is expected to vote on a $ 400 million paid-claims tax that would be levied on insurers and third-party administrators as proposed by Governor Snyder.  Specifically, the bill would establish an entirely new tax on health insurance claims as a way to match federal Medicaid funding. The 1 percent on tax on all medical claims paid under health, dental, automobile and workers’ compensation coverage would impact fully and self-insured business. Ultimately, the cost of the tax will be borne by the sponsor of that coverage – the employer or the individual who already pays for the coverage. As introduced, the tax would begin on October 1, 2011.  While working with lawmakers to help them understand the impact the tax would have on constituents, Aetna has mobilized its grassroots employee network to contact their state legislators regarding the issue. The bill has a strong chance of passing, and Aetna is urging all its constituents in the state to contact the Governor’s office and legislators to express any concerns they may have about the tax.

NEW YORK:  Session is scheduled to adjourn June 20, and no official exchange legislation has been advanced. The Senate Republican majority is said to have a bill draft ready that supports a market-based exchange, but it has not been introduced yet. The Administration plans to introduce a more expansive model that reportedly will include giving the governor the majority of the board appointments, the exchange de facto rate-setting authority, and the exchange authority to selectively contract and require plans to participate. The bills are expected by the second week in June. However, with many other significant issues still on the table, compromise on an exchange bill may be swept up into a larger negotiation.

A very broad autism mandate is still in play. A set of amendments was introduced to ensure that an autism coverage mandate not be broader than for any other disease coverage mandate, For example, a pharmacy rider would be required to get pharmacy coverage, and there would be a limitation on visits but no dollar or age limits. The bill is still more expansive than last year’s version, which was vetoed by then-Governor Paterson due to its $ 70 million fiscal note.  Governor Cuomo has not announced his position on the proposal.

NEVADA: The 2011 legislative session is winding down toward adjournment on June 6. Governor Brian Sandoval has on his desk a rate review bill that would implement a prior approval scheme, require greater transparency and public access to rate filings, and allow a Consumer Advocate to request a public hearing. The measure is sponsored by the Democratic Speaker and has the support of the commissioner who says that some aspects of the bill are needed for the state to comply with HHS rate review requirements. The Senate-sponsored bill creating the Silver State Health Exchange continues to move toward passage in the Assembly.

PENNSYLVANIA: State government had another better-than-expected revenue collection month in May and headed into the final month of the fiscal year with a nearly $ 540 million surplus. The news came last week as the debate in the Capitol intensified over the depth of spending cuts sought by Governor Tom Corbett. Legislative budget analysts said the state’s updated revenue collection figure through the end of May was 2 percent, or about $ 34 million, over the official estimate. That means the state has collected almost $ 24.3 billion through 11 months, or 2.3 percent above the official estimate. However, the state continues to face a projected multi-billion-dollar budget deficit in the fiscal year beginning July 1. The disappearing federal stimulus money that temporarily helped buttress the state’s recession-wracked tax collections is one of the largest contributing factors.

TEXAS: A special session of the legislature, called by Gov. Rick Perry to address education and health care issues left pending when the 140-day regular session ended May 30, got off to a slow start last week. But by the end of the week, the Senate Appropriations Committee unanimously voted in support of a massive health care measure that combines three weighty regular-session bills. Now headed for a full Senate vote, the package seeks $ 1.5 billion in Medicaid savings by expanding managed care to South Texas and restructuring insurance payment systems. It also would charge Medicaid patients for unnecessary emergency room visits and penalize doctors and hospitals for preventable complications.

Late Tuesday, Perry added another issue to the 30-day session: redrawing boundaries for Texas’ 36 congressional districts. School finance remains the main event of the overtime session. Another bill would resurrect the interstate health care compact, favored by Republicans because it would allow member states to opt out of the federal health care reform law. Democrats oppose the effort, saying Texas would save money by cutting more low-income people from Medicaid coverage. A bigger hurdle would be Congress, which must approve the compact. The special session will last a maximum of 30 days but could conclude earlier if the legislature finishes business and adjourns.

Do You Take Care Of Your Emotional & Business Health?

Health Information about Do You Take Care Of Your Emotional & Business Health?

When do people get the finest care of their health? Do you think that it is an everyday, common thing, something that they do without thinking about it? The average person takes the best care of themselves when they know they are going to be held accountable for their health- right before a doctor’s appointment. As we get older, we are in the doctor’s office for regular checkups on a more regular basis. We get blood work yearly. We get other tests that the doctor deems to be necessary for us.

And just before we go to those appointments we try to make sure that your blood is as healthy as possible. We cut out the cheeseburgers and fries and the yummy cakes and cookies that up to that point, we have been stuffing in our face gleefully and totally without guilt. Well you know what? Two weeks of healthy living is not going to kill anyone, least of all your own body. You aren’t doing anyone any favors by attempting to undo a life time of bad habits in two or three weeks just for better numbers on a test.

We do the same thing with our too. We have a bad day or a truly, really bad day and we drink it away or we stay up all night, wringing our hands and fretting. Sorry, but a bad day leads to a bad night and that leads to bad health which in turn leads to more things to worry about. Starting to see a connection?

What about your mental health? We start forgetting things or we aren’t thinking as sharply as we used to. So, we decide it is just part of getting older and we throw in the towel. But, then we neglect some fundamental detail or another and Blammo! We are stressed out and that leads to the whole vicious cycle once again.

Finally, you have to examine your business or financial health. Say you starting a new internet marketing program with what is supposed to be one of the major gurus of the industry. Rather of paying careful attention, you gloss over and skim some of the data and decide to do things your way. You don’t know what you are doing! That’s why you were paying to learn from the guru in the first place! And now, you are out the money for the guru lessons. You are out the investment in the marketing plan that failed because you were floundering around out there. Now, you have real stress which swings you back to the entire health circus again- only, no one is clamoring to get into that big tent, buddy.

Everything you do occurs back to you; everything is connected. Do well in one aspect of your life and it all seems to fall into place for you. Fail and you fail everywhere. Get healthy, mind, body, spirit and pocketbook.

Hi this is a 4-Part Video, so please be sure to watch all four parts. In this video I share with you helpful information on how to overcome and deal with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. This anxiety disorder affects many people and this four-part series will help bring about awareness of what this disorder is all about as well as suggestions for treatment.

Natural hair care the best treatment for hair loss

Last Updated on Wednesday, 19 October 2011 09:11 Written by Natural Health Team Wednesday, 19 October 2011 09:11

Health Information about Natural hair care the best treatment for hair loss

There are several Causes of Hair Loss in Women and men and as there are a number of causes, there are also a number of Hair Loss Medications for Males and females available.

The most common cause of hair loss in men is androgenetic alopecia (males) which can also be called DHT Hair Loss. When testosterone, the male hormone, gets converted to DHT, it results in hair loss. Besides Anti-Androgen Medication, there are a number of Herbal Nutritional Supplements available which contain natural substances for blocking this transformation into DHT by the human body and are able to take care of hair loss. The active ingredients of these supplements are all-natural herbal, vitamin, and mineral DHT inhibitors. These natural hair care products contain no harsh chemicals and do not have sexual side effects which are very much evident in Hair Loss Medication.

The common hair care treatments available for females for normal hair care include shampoos, conditioners, whereas hair Re-growth treatment with Anti-Androgens and topical treatment with Rogaine are the only available options for female balding. There are many limitations of the anti androgen therapy, and the topical medication Rogaine which is more effective in preventing further hair loss rather than stimulating hair growth, is quite expensive and requires a long period of treatment (from 6 months to a year). Besides, the results obtained after a long period of use disappear after the treatment is stopped. In such situations it is best to explore the natural hair care secrets offered by many Natural Herbal Supplements and the Nutritional Health Vitamin Supplements.

Nutrition plays a very important role for hair care. The hair follicles which are in an active growth phase are strong and healthy compared to those which are in the resting stage. A steady flow of proper nutritional building blocks is essential for hair follicles to grow and produce healthy hair fiber. The follicles derive their nutrition from the blood. A balanced diet which has the natural vitamin supplements, proteins and mineral and health supplements is able to provide natural nutritional supplements to the hair follicles. If the already weak hair follicles do not get proper nutrition they become more prone to shedding.

These natural health supplements create an atmosphere where the tiny follicles beneath your scalp receive exactly what they need to create beautiful, full-bodied hair and also the power they need to sustain themselves when old.

Preventive care is the best form of treatment for any type of illness and hair loss is no exception. By providing the advantage of best nutritional and natural hair care you are sure to have a better control of hair loss.

Natural food supplements are the key to good health, and using natural hair care products and supplements are the best hair loss treatments for hair care.

Natural hair care secrets lie in taking a scientifically balanced mixture of Vitamins, Minerals and other Health Supplements which have long been regarded as effective for providing the right nourishment to the hair follicles and retain their vitality, natural color and the their potential for re-growth which can be lost due to both the internal and external causes.

Science has now unraveled the natural care secrets of phytonutrients, or phytochemicals, many of these chemicals have antioxidant capabilities greater than vitamin A, C, or E and the vitamins which have also been shown to be related with hair care. Many of these chemicals have anti-cancer benefits, and the good news is that there are thousands of such chemicals found in each fruit or vegetable.

Besides fruits and vegetables, nature has many herbs and plants which are able to provide natural hair care. Hormonal imbalance resulting from menopause is an important cause of hair loss in women. Besides menopause, hormonal imbalance is also caused during pregnancy, child birth, and is the cause of poly cystic ovarian syndrome in women, hormonal imbalance is also one of the main causes of hair loss in women.

Many of the herbs have the required natural supplements in them which are able to take care of most of the problems women face, so much so that they can be labeled as Women Health Supplements. These natural women health supplements are able to prevent hair loss due to menopause and are especially useful for women’s health during the difficult phases of their life.

Chamonix all-natural antioxidant anti-wrinkle skin care

Last Updated on Tuesday, 18 October 2011 01:10 Written by Natural Health Team Tuesday, 18 October 2011 01:10

Health Information about Chamonix all-natural antioxidant anti-wrinkle skin care

Announcer: Fact: For years, toxins have been getting trapped in your skin from all the cosmetics, creams and chemicals that you use every day, making your skin age faster.

The crow’s-feet, my laugh lines, especially, you know, right in here, were almost all gone right here immediately. It was great. It was great.

I have very deep eye… You know, eye wrinkles, also above my lips, and these are the areas that I saw very, very softened, and to me that’s just so important because all I see are these wrinkles when I look, and if I can look and not see wrinkles, it’s really a nice feeling. Makes you feel good.

You can put it on right away, just as you’re going out the door… By the time you’re downstairs in the elevator, your wrinkles, the laugh lines on your eyes, are gone.

The dark circles had diminished, the lines had gone away, and… It was just… It was remarkable.

Hello and welcome to breakthroughs in anti-aging. I’m your host, Elizabeth Watts, and today we’ll reveal the answer to the age-old question: Can we stop the clock on aging? Do wrinkle creams really work? Is it possible for wrinkle creams to even reverse wrinkles? Our investigation today goes beyond the beautiful commercials and attractive packaging, because more and more, scientists are warning that the problem could lie in the common wrinkle treatments on every store shelf. Now, to help us understand this problem, I’ve invited Dr. Janet Maccaro to the broadcast. Dr. Maccaro, you’ve been studying alternative health, especially in the area of women, for more than 30 years.

That’s right.

And you’ve published several books on health.

I have. Your skin is the main barrier between your body and the outside world. All the pollutants from the environment, the sun, the free radicals, chemicals from the polluted air, even from your food, ultimately concentrate in your skin…

I can see that.

Yup, and as we age, our skin loses its ability to constantly detoxify, and then your skin is depleted of essential minerals and enzymes that are vital in rebuilding your skin’s collagen, elastin and, of course, the skin’s immune system, so any wrinkle cream you use without restoring these minerals, vitamins and enzymes is never gonna be optimal.

Could our wrinkle creams be temporarily hiding the fine lines while creating a much worse skin problem with long-term use?

You know, the simple answer is yes. The outer layer of your skin is made up of about 15 layers of flat, dead cells, which can easily be penetrated by mineral oil and other petroleum by-products, so these inorganic ingredients are often used in skin products to help carry the active ingredients into the deeper layers.

Wow.

The problem is, Elizabeth, is that they don’t get absorbed by the body, so they build up in your skin layers and become like toxic waste. You know, i’ve been researching natural health alternatives for over three decades now, and that’s why I’m always shocked to find out how many products still use chemicals and toxins despite the fact that research has shown that they’re harmful to our health.

That’s hard to believe.

There’s no need to use them. You know, the chemicals and toxins that are in most of the products we buy in the store could be, in my opinion, you know, the primary reason why we’re all looking and feeling older way before our time.

Mm.

Whether you walk into a high-end department store or a drugstore, you have no idea what you’re putting on your skin, Elizabeth, or inside your body through your skin, and I don’t blame you, because you’re not a chemist.

Yeah, there’s a long list of ingredients there.

You’re right. You know, there are dozens of ingredients listed on the box, and you have no idea what they mean or what damage they can cause.

That’s true.

You know, there’s a lot of research on so many chemicals in skincare products, but I’m gonna focus on two ingredients today that are almost universally used in the skincare industry. Mineral oil is number one and pharmaceutical preservatives known as Parabens.

O.K.

So, first, let’s take mineral oil. Mineral oil is a product of oil refineries. It’s like the same oil you put in your car engine…

Really?

If you can believe it. Mineral oil causes irritation to the skin. Symptoms include redness, itching and pain, may cause allergic reactions, and it goes on to say that chronic exposure may cause dermatitis.

And you’re saying mineral oil is an active ingredient in skincare in this country?

Elizabeth, nine out of every 10 skincare items women buy in America contain mineral oil, paraffin or petrolatum, and all of these are different names for mineral oil. So think about this: Women can use up to 20 different products as part of their daily routine on a weekly basis.

I do!

So if you count skincare and makeup, you know, women especially are putting these chemicals on their face daily. The problem is, you know, we’ve been doing it for years, and now they’ve accumulated, and now they’re causing all kinds of problems internally and externally.

So, in the long run, we’re causing our skin to age quicker in exchange for some pretty mediocre short-term results.

That’s exactly it.

And you say the case is worse for Parabens?

Parabens are pharmaceutical preservatives that are widely used as antibacterials, and because Parabens are the standard of the industry, chances are even the most expensive skincare you buy contains Parabens. The national institutes of health website is listing dozens of clinical studies about Parabens’ side effects as far as inflammation of the skin, dermatitis, allergic reactions and hypersensitivity.

My sensitive skin…

Yes.

And breakouts could really be caused by my skincare products?

They absolutely could, Elizabeth, but the Paraben problems don’t end there. Earlier studies in the university of reading, England, proved that Parabens are absorbed from the skin into the body and have a weak estrogenic effect inside the body.

Whoa.

Yeah, so these British scientists also found that Parabens are found intact in different body tissues, especially breast tissue, which raised all kinds of alarms in the health-conscious communities.

Who wants chemicals that work like hormones in their body?

That’s right– health experts have starting warning about possible risks.

Wow.

It’s really about how much risk a woman wants to take with her health. You don’t need to risk your health to try to achieve a younger appearance when there are safer alternatives. So, you need an anti-aging skincare system that not only is free of mineral oil and Parabens…

Mm-hmm.

But that can also rebuild collagen to reduce wrinkles and reverse what I call toxic skin syndrome. You also need to reverse damage to the skin, you need to improve collagen production and protect against free radical damage every day.

Well, today we’re talking about Chamonix anti-aging skincare, dr. Maccaro’s top pick for a skincare line that does not use mineral oil or Parabens in their anti-aging products and that is very effective in both detoxifying and reducing fine lines and wrinkles.

Yes. Now, when you’re talking about reversing the damage that toxic skin has caused, then you have to start with two of the products: The Chamonix detoxifying mask and the Chamonix esotique collagen builder. Now, these two products together will dramatically change the look and feel of your skin almost overnight without any toxins, chemicals or preservatives.

That sounds good.

It’s fantastic. Esotique is what you can call the perfect all-natural anti-wrinkle treatment. It contains clinical concentrations of Matrixyl to increase collagen production, hyaluronic acid, grape seed extract, vitamin e and so much more, and it works on fine lines and wrinkles like nothing I’ve ever used.

So one product detoxifies the skin…

Yes.

And the other one holds the moisture in and works to rebuild collagen day after day and it’s been clinically proven with these ingredients?

You’ve got it, and it leaves your skin clean and healthy and younger-looking without any irritation. This is definitely the best anti-aging treatment I’ve ever come across, and this is the most effective I’ve ever used, hands down.

The crow’s-feet, my laugh lines, especially, you know, right in here, were almost all gone right here immediately. It was great. It was great.

I have very deep eye… You know, eye wrinkles, also above my lips, and these are the areas that I saw very, very softened, and to me, that’s just so important because all I see are these wrinkles when I look, and if I can look and not see wrinkles, it’s really a nice feeling. Makes you feel good.

You can put it on right away, just as you’re going out the door. By the time you’re downstairs in the elevator, your wrinkles, the laugh lines on your eyes, are gone.

The dark circles had diminished, the lines had gone away, and… It was just… It was remarkable.

Welcome back to breakthroughs in anti-aging. I’m your host, Elizabeth Watts, and we’re here with dr. Janet Maccaro, talking about the best way to stop the clock. But Dr. Maccaro, before we continue, let me bring in Babita Hariani. Babita’s an investigative reporter. She lives in the new york area, and for over a decade, she worked in a prestigious national news outlet. Hello, Babita. Thank you for being with us today.

My pleasure.

Babita, you were telling me before the show that your latest investigation was shocking to you, and it made you an advocate for all-natural skincare. Why don’t you share your story with our audience?

You know, Chamonix built their company on antioxidants and clinically proven skincare free of mineral oil, Parabens, suspect chemicals. I mean, I’ve always used skincare with the best ingredients, so instead of using Chamonix, I called and asked to speak to the owner, who is a compounding pharmacist, by the way, and then went down to meet with him. He showed me the dangers of mineral oil and Parabens and what they can do to my skin. We’re talking about inflammation, breakouts, dermatitis, hypersensitivity, and even more serious health concerns. The amazing thing is all of this information is at every woman’s fingertips, right on the internet– all of those clinical studies, the warnings, all the expert opinions– but because the media never talks about it, we the public would just never know.

I bet it was shocking for you to discover this.

Well, a part of me still refused to believe how widely used these toxins are in skincare, so I went out to the drugstore and I read the ingredients of the lower-price brands of wrinkle creams. Every single one I saw had both mineral oil and Parabens. Then I drove to the department store, thinking that the more expensive brands would be better. I examined the labels on the more expensive brands of wrinkle creams, and again, all of them contained mineral oil and generally more than one Paraben– usually a combination of methylparaben, propylparaben, a butylparaben, and dozens of other chemical names, some of which I can’t even pronounce.

Babita, I’m looking at this complexion analysis report that you had done at your doctor’s office, and in just two months’ time, the crow’s-feet that I saw on the first report and the brown spot that I saw, they’re completely gone. I mean, it’s just amazing. In just two months’ time. What an improvement. I’m really impressed.

Elizabeth: It’s incredible.

Thank you, and you’re right. It’s different. When you have it there on paper showing you that it went away… What more can I say? This is the evidence. It’s being presented to you. It’s not me telling you. It’s the dermatologist that took a physical scan of my skin, and it improved with Chamonix.

Babita, I was telling Elizabeth that esotique and the detoxifying mask are the best skincare I’ve ever used. Is that your experience too?

This is far and away the best skincare I’ve ever put on my skin. Esotique is just amazing. You feel that difference from the very first application– the tightening, the moisturizing effect. It is so pure that it absorbs into your skin in seconds. None of that oily feeling. You just wouldn’t know it until you try it for yourself.

Well, thank you so much for sharing the results of your investigation, Babita.

Thank you so much for having me.

Now let me play a few more clips from real Chamonix users. Look at this.

It felt like it went on really smoothly, and it did– I did feel a tingling, and it felt really firm.

The crow’s-feet, my laugh lines, especially, you know, right in here, were almost all gone right here immediately. It was great. It was great.

I have very deep eye… You know, eye wrinkles, also above my lips, and these are the areas that I saw very, very softened, and to me that’s just so important because all I see are these wrinkles when I look, and if I can look and not see wrinkles, it’s really a nice feeling. Makes you feel good.

The dark circles had diminished, the lines had gone away, and I was just– it was remarkable.

Announcer: Are you tired of searching for skincare products to fight wrinkles on your face, only to be disappointed every time? Well, your search stops here.

As you’ve been hearing on the show, even people with the most sensitive skin find it works. Joining me here in the studio is George Faltaous, the pharmacist who developed Chamonix. Welcome, George.

Thank you for having me.

Now, you’re a pharmacist and a nutritionist. How in the world did you get into skincare?

I was filling prescriptions in my pharmacy in Colonia, new jersey, when a customer of mine walked in, and she was browsing around the store, and I asked her if she needs any help with something, and she says she was looking for wrinkle cream with grape seed extract, and I said, you know, “they don’t make grape seed extract cream.” back then, there was no such thing. I said– she got a little disappointed. She says, you know, “I read it would be great for my wrinkles.” and I said to her, “you know, I can make it for you. I’ll make you one.” she said, “really?” I said, “sure.” so she came back the next day. I went into my compounding department, and I made a grape seed extract cream for her– pure, natural, with only calendula flower extract as the base with some grape seed extract in it, based on my compounding experience and being a nutritionist. She took it. I didn’t really make anything of it. Three days later, her friend came in and asked for the same cream that Phyllis had.

[laughs]

Um, it was amazing, and again, you know, I made it for her, I gave it to her. A couple days later, her cousin came in– Phyllis’ cousin– and then…

Wow.

Yeah, these ladies, I mean, they started spreading the word around. You know, the rest is history, like they say. You know, we have hundreds of thousands of customers now that use the products.

Yeah.

One of the big reasons why our products work so well is because the base is so clean. It’s a flower extract that’s native to the far east that’s been used as a healing agent for thousands of years.

Really?

It’s called calendula. It’s a beautiful flower extract, and we fortify it with hyaluronic acid, which is a collagen builder.

O.K.

And that’s the base of Chamonix skincare, and there’s none of the, you know, mineral oil or petroleum by-products or the pharmaceutical bases that, you know, basically what I call plastic base.

[laughs]

And these things that, you know, that will give you shine on your skin but clog your pores. It’s like a sheet of plastic that covers your skin. Feels great, keeps the moisture in, but the price you’re paying for that is your skin is not breathing, and I think that’s one of the, if not the most important factor of why Chamonix skincare has the highest loyalty of any skincare line on the market.

Women want to build the collagen to plump the skin, right?

Right.

And that helps produce… So tell me about that, and how does Chamonix take care of that?

So the collagen production ingredient that we use in our… In esotique is matrixyl, which is a natural peptide, five amino acids, that is clinically proven to improve collagen production in your own skin up to 327%, as far as the clinical study’s concerned.

Now, George, I did actually look up matrixyl on the environmental working group’s database…

Yeah.

And it got a zero on the toxicity level, so to me that’s amazing.

That’s the key point with Chamonix skincare. Everything we formulate, we formulate on this basis. It has to be very clean, but it also has to work.

Well, thanks again, George.

Oh, it’s a pleasure. Thank you for having me.

Thanks, good to have you here.

Something that’s natural like esotique makes you glow from the inside out.

I love the Chamonix line because it works.

Is there a way to get incredible younger skin and take years off your appearance without such harsh measures as Botox and plastic surgery and without using chemicals and toxins? With Chamonix, you can.

That’s why I love the Chamonix detoxifying mask. Because it preps your skin to absorb the clinically proven ingredients in Chamonix that boost collagen production three times and reverses fine lines and wrinkles with clinically proven results.

Dr. Maccaro, what is it that’s in esotique that’s giving these great results?

Elizabeth, the main ingredient in esotique is a peptide called matrixyl, and it’s clinically proven to diminish wrinkles by tripling your collagen production.

Whoa!

Yeah, and this is important because it’s a lot more important, in my opinion, to improve the structure of your skin, the condition of your skin, and moisture content of your skin and triple the collagen production than an instant effect you may get from a regular skin cream.

Sure.

Esotique gives you the short-term and the long-term results of antioxidant collagen builder nutrients. I talked to some of their customers who used both the detoxifying mask and esotique, and their results confirmed my impressions. This is definitely the best anti-aging treatment I’ve ever come across, and I’ve tried many. I’m over 50 now, and this is the most effective I’ve ever used, hands down, and it leaves your skin clean and healthy and younger looking without any irritation. What else can I say?

Well, not much, ’cause we’re officially out of time. Thank you so much for making us aware of this problem and bringing us the solution, and I hope to have you back again really soon.

Thank you so much for having me.

Sure. Ladies, we’ve been using skincare products for years that have mineral oil, Parabens, and other chemicals in them. We’ve been struggling with skin irritations like dry, flaky, dehydrated skin, breakouts, and even more serious conditions like eczema and dermatitis. There is a connection. Our skin just can’t handle all the environmental toxins, chemicals in our food, and then the dangerous mineral oil and Parabens, but it doesn’t have to be that way anymore. You have the power to finally stop that clock. The answer is Chamonix. Thank you so much for watching, everyone.

Something that’s natural like esotique makes you glow from the inside out.

I love the Chamonix line because it works.
