We’re in Sedona filming episodes for the upcoming week, so we thought you might want to check out this video of the event we helped put on last Wednesday…
David Wolfe talks about raw foods, superfoods, noni, colloidal gold, RevitaPhi (Jameth Sheridan’s new green powder), goji berries, cacao (of course) and more.
Go ahead and make some kale chips and take some time tonight to watch this one instead of Monday Night Football! 
(Or maybe after MNF… I’m a huge football fan!)
Take a watch now…
Your question of the day: What did you think of the talk?
Click here, scroll down to the bottom of the page and leave your comment now!
(I personally like the Island Fire and RevitaPhi!)
Live Awesome!

Thank you, thank you, thank you, beyond words. God Bless you both for doing this for us.

Well I think David is a good preacher.
It’s just so sad that all this special stuff is so expensive.
2:11 am on September 9th, 2008
What is the web-based trick you are using to make it look like an un-affiliate link yet set the upline to “#1420 Annmarie Colameo” on the Elements For Life link - I can’t figure it out!
And as I’ve not heard you discuss your views on pyramid selling (or multi level marketing, or whatever you want to call it), can you say something about that, too?
5:27 am on September 9th, 2008
inspiring, motivating & fun…!
8:46 am on September 9th, 2008
I’m a raw foodist for six years, I know about goji berries, wheatgrass, blue agae and dulse. When I go to the health food store, I see maca powder, noni but I never realised that all of those food were called superfoods and blend together, they can be very powerful for the body. Thank you so much for this precious information.

just awesome!

Kevin and AnnaMarie,
Loved the talk. Thank you so much for recording it! Can you find out from David where he gets his spiral water pipes from?
4:42 pm on September 9th, 2008
We’re glad we could provide it for you guys!
Nir, not a trick, just a redirect
Any webmaster can create one for you and if you’re a little more technical you can do it yourself in the cpanel.
As for MLM, I’ve been approached by every single company under the sun. Annmarie and I choose Elements for Life to actually do something with for a few reasons. But let me start with a quick talk on multi-level marketing…
I believe it’s one of the best ways to deliver a product to the general population. How many times have you recommended something that you really love to a friend, family member or just a stranger on the street and they took your suggestion and went out to get the product?
Probably a bunch of times.
MLM allows the “average” person to actually make money on a product they love.
I’ve stayed out of MLM because I’ve never really loved the products. We did recommend 1-2 Isagenix products to some of our clients who didn’t want to do the vegan thing, but I never liked their whole line. So we didn’t build it as a business… just a retail thing, really.
When this came along, Annmarie and I decided it was a no-brainer. We already send people to stores and other sites to buy superfoods, so why not make money referring someone to something we REALLY stand by.
If you look at the line up of products, they have some pretty high integrity behind them.
So for us that made the most sense.
I think what brings most people to the conclusion that MLM is bad is two-fold…
(1) They are approached by overzealous people who don’t know jack about the products. (The “I-gave-it-to-my-dog-and-he-grew-wings” type stories.)
Strike 1.
(2) They got invited into a company, were excited about it, and never made any money.
Strike 2.
There is no strike three here, but there is definitely a bad taste.
I used to think that MLM was about calling chiropractors and doctors and then hearing the phone get hung up just as quickly as you mentioned “MLM”.
ANYONE would hate that.
But my thoughts have changed with this company. Here are those reasons…
(1) It’s a company with great products.
(2) There are well known people who back the company and are willing to explain the value of the products… So instead of relying on anecdotal evidence, we can ask experts.
(3) Because of this, the inviting process is easier. We don’t have to know all about the product, we can invite people to listen in to a call with one or more of these experts. This is an educational step that is not really seen in MLM.
(4) The intention of the owners is very good. I’ve meet the president, Chad, and can tell he’s good people.
(5) I was invited by a person who really knows what they’re doing when it comes to building a team. He’s created an educational platform that has allowed a bunch of people to actually start to succeed with this business.
The first time I started with an MLM, there was no team. No support means no one to bounce ideas off of. This means, eventually, you won’t succeed.
And to top it all off (a little long winded here) the idea is to get some of these products to people who really need them.
Superfoods are a gateway to getting into a healthier lifestyle. So if more people use them, more people will wake up to the possibility that there is more out there than what they know already.
So to give someone that gift is priceless… it’s almost our duty!
Hope that helps clarify for you!
Live Awesome!

Thanks Kevin and Annamarie,
I have been raw/organic for about 4/5 months. I have been watching your show for about as long and feel very fortunate to have you and others like you who have been doing this for awhile to guide me along my journey. I really enjoyed listening to and watching David Wolfe because he is so energetic and inspiring (as are you). Thanks for this clip, I needed the energetic boost to be reinspired!!!
Much Love and Light,
Gayle

thanks

Dear Kevin and Anne Marie,
I hope you resist the temptation to use your show as a forum for promoting your Elements for Life business. I value your authentic investigation into the best that the health community has to offer. I admire your persistance in sharing your experience with a wide audience regardless of our potential as a member of your downline.
Now for the curmudgeon part of the email: I’ll supply a strike three for MLM. The products are over priced! All those payouts have to come from some where and the product price rises to the occasion. For example, you can find goji berries -organic, high quality -for half the price from other sources on line. And they’re just as tasty too.
Though I value David’s experience and enthusiasm I find his information hollow. Unlike some of your speakers who back up claims with scientific evidence, David relies on testimonial. A sure sign to me of hype.

Debra, don’t worry, this is not going to turn into a platform for Elements for Life
The mission of the show is to inform, educate and have fun… so Elements for Life fits, but is not 1st priority.
Priority is you and all our other viewers!
As for the pricing, the cacao and goji berries and superfoods like that are not the showcase of the company and are priced regular retail… you could spend more or less on them in different places.
What I like are the products that you can’t find anywhere else like the Revitaphi (which is an alkalizing green powder with adaptagenic herbs) and the island fire (a real, raw noni drink)
Thanks for sharing your thoughts!!!

Thanks debra for expressing yourself more elequantely than I can.
I guess I do have a problem with trusting any person’s recommendation for a product if they stand to make money should I chose to buy - as I am not a mind reader and cannot examine their integrity and thus do not know if they are recommending a product BECAUSE they are making money. My recommendation of a product to a friend is entirely independent if I clearly stand to make no money from it. Clearly I ‘love’ the product in such a case.
I found David’s style to be hype over science, a style that works well when preaching the the choir, which I guess is the target market here. Anecdotal story from a self-styled expert is still an anecdote. You can certainly be a lot more science evidence-based in your recommendations, as shown, for example by Dr Joel Fuhrman (someone you once had on an audio seminar) though I’ll admit even in that case I’m not extatic about him having a line of products to sell.
About products where the MLM is the only source: I consider it to be even more suspect if no-one else in the world thinks the product has a benefit. Clearly this would not apply to a new iProduct from Apple, but when the superfood is supposed to have been around for an age and used by local cultures for years, its unavailability might say something.
I guess my scam-meter is set at a different level from other people’s. I guess I’ll be sticking to the “conventional” approach of eating a vegan diet that is approximately 60%-70% raw by food weight.

I am so thankful for your show and DW’s talk was great ! Youare all helping me to stay healthy and balanced. Blessings to you all.
6:08 pm on September 10th, 2008
great show! Thank you for sharing.
8:30 pm on September 10th, 2008
Thank-you for taping that talk, It was so informative and David is such a good speaker. I wanted it to not end. I was interested in the revitaphi before but now I’m going to try it for certain. I am already taking marine phyto plankton, another company’s product but hey, apples are apples right?! I feel David gives real education as he speaks and he walks the talk so I feel he’s credible.
9:49 pm on September 10th, 2008
Kevin, Mike Adams introduced me to you, and you introduced me to David.
Need I say more?
All three of you changed my life forever. And SAVED my life.
Thank you.
10:34 pm on September 10th, 2008
Excellent,great show. Thankyou
9:07 am on September 11th, 2008
Gr8 video and thx.
My only concer is cacao , coz there is a lot of controvercy about this food. Some claim that cacao is not healthy at all and no one should eat it.
2:28 pm on September 11th, 2008
Debra and Nir,
I have nothing else to add, you expressed my thoughts like as if it were my own writing. I am originally not from this country, and while living in the US for an extended period of time I observed, on many occasions, the use of such “crowd-pleasing” oratory in salesmen’s or politicians’ tools of persuasion. Not that there is something inherently wrong with it but it always reminds me of church preaching and as such, not very credible. Thank you for everyone’s comments though
2:16 am on September 12th, 2008
Dr. Clement of the Hippocrates Institute certainly advises against cacao, due to the alkaloids.
I would like to see a debate between Wolfe, Clement, and many others who fundamentally disagree on various things.
In fact, I have no clue why this has not happened yet! Perhaps you could organise such a debate, Kevin?
1:04 pm on September 14th, 2008
thanks for the great show!!!!!!!!HOPE TO SEE MORE SHOWS LIKE THIS. CINDY
1:24 pm on September 22nd, 2008
hi kevin
next time you see david and he gives a talk, can you actually tell him to do what he offered at the end of the talk, which is to give a talk on rudolf steiner and the spiritual frequencies of plants, natural products etc?
that would be wonderful.
thanks
7:34 pm on October 14th, 2008
The sound is so low, I can barely hear. My computer set up has outstanding sound for all other audio related programs. Even the daily with Kevin is so low, I find it very difficult to hear. My hearing is fine!
Can you help, please?
