Selection 
To locate the botanicals with the most effective health-promoting properties, 
Pharmanex employs teams of experts from the United States and Asia. These 
teams conduct exhaustive research-compiling, reviewing, and summarizing 
historical use and current intelligence about a botanical's properties and health 
benefits. Pharmanex also conducts original research to identify new botanicals, 
coordinating with noted professionals at Purdue University, Kansas University, 
Columbia University, Scripps Research Institute, and Beijing University, among 
others. Only botanicals that pass extensive Pharmanex tests for 
authenticity, usefulness, and safety are considered.
Sourcing 
Once Pharmanex decides to proceed with a particular botanical, a team 
investigates potential sources of the botanical and conducts exhaustive 
analyses on samples from each source. Sources may be domestic or 
international and may include Pharmanex cultivation areas in China 
and Chile. Pharmanex chooses a supplier based on the quality and 
concentration level of the active ingredient(s) present in samples from 
that source.
Structure 
Using state-of-the-art analytical techniques and working in collaboration 
with respected universities and laboratories in both China and the United 
States, Pharmanex conducts structural analyses of the natural compounds 
present in the selected botanical. These analyses isolate and purify 
specific chemical structures in standardized extracts, a critical step in 
ensuring a safe and effective botanical.
Standardization 
Wide variations in active ingredients are characteristic of any botanical. For 
example, when Pharmanex analyzes potential Ginkgo biloba leaves, studies 
reveal the concentrations of active components will vary by as much as 300% 
depending on season, climate, soil, method of harvest, storage conditions, and 
processing. Pharmanex optimizes the active ingredients of a product through 
strict, proprietary standardization processes (to at least one relevant marker 
molecule). Each capsule of a Pharmanex product contains the same amount of 
each active ingredient.
Safety 
Pharmanex is leading the way in establishing strict standards to ensure 
the safety of its products. Scientists research and document the history of 
a product's use and safety. Pharmaceutical-grade tests for the presence of 
microbes, toxins, and heavy metals are carried out for all products. The 
active ingredient amount used is based on dosages found effective 
through clinical trials and is backed by published data on file at 
Pharmanex. Each product label details directions for use and 
contains appropriate warning information.
Substantiation 
Pharmanex only makes product claims that have been substantiated 
through documented preclinical and clinical studies. Existing clinical 
data are reviewed, and when necessary, Pharmanex sponsors studies of 
its products. Data from some of these studies are subsequently submitted 
to major international journals for review. This adherence to scientific 
standards for substantiation helps make Pharmanex a leader in the 
natural healthcare product industry.

THE NEXT BIG THING 
"The amount of ANTIOXIDANTS that you 
maintain in your body is directly 
proportional to how long you will live.“ 
Dr. Richard Cutler, Director of the Anti- 
Aging Research Department of the National 
Institute of Health(NIH), Wash D.C.
Fact 
The fastest growing market is in 
Health and Wellness 
which was $300 billion last year 
and is projected to rise to 
$1 trillion by the year 2010. 
Baby boomers are 
25% of the population and 
represent 50% of the spending.
The Problem 
Free Radicals are 
unstable molecules that 
cause cell and DNA damage; 
They are a by-product of 
metabolism.

Degenerative Diseases 
 Cancer 
 Heart Disease 
 Diabetes 
 Age Related Macular Degeneration 
 Cataracts 
 The aging process itself!
Aging Symptoms 
“You’re not getting older, just your 
DNA” 
(Headline from an article in Popular Science, August 2002, p.44)
All Around Us

free radicals per cigarette!
The Solution 
Antioxidants combat free 
radicals to prevent cell damage 
and maintain health; we get 
these from fruits, vegetables, 
and vitamin supplements
No one gets it 
In a survey of 21,500 
people, not a single person 
consumed a 100% of RDA 
for the 10 most important 
nutrients! 
Did you eat 6-10 Servings* of 
Fruits and Vegetables Today? 
*as recommended by the National Cancer Institute
It is now Unanimous… 
June 19, 
2002 
After decades, 
the American 
Medical 
Association 
does a 180º turn 
RDAs “Enough 
to prevent 
deficiency, but 
not enough to 
prevent disease” 
“We recommend that ALL ADULTS 
take a multi-vitamin daily” 
You are now under doctors orders!
Which product? 
With so many choices, how do 
you know which Antioxidant 
supplements to buy? 
How does a healthcare 
professional know what to 
recommend to their 
patients... and whether it 
works or not?
The Missing Link 
The ability to MEASURE 
is the basis of SCIENCE 
This has been the missing 
link in the nutritional 
industry!
What if…… 
April 6, 1992 
On Antioxidants vs. Free Radicals 
…Antioxidants may one day 
revolutionize health care. 
…Screening people through a 
simple...test to assess how 
much damage free radicals 
have done to tissue, much as 
patients today are screened for 
high cholesterol. 
Biochemist, William Pryor, director of the 
Biodynamics Institute at Louisiana State University
