My Dad called me shortly after New Year’s and told me about this new product he heard about called Bios Life Slim. He asked me if I would try it for a month, just a month, just to see if it could help me take back control of my weight, my health, my life. I know how IMPORTANT it was to him for me to be healthy and fit. I gave him my promise.
Actually, my weight loss journey started long before my father introduced me to Bios Life Slim. It began when my brother fell ill. At over 650 pounds, my brother went into a coma, unable to efficiently exchange oxygen during sleep because of the weight crushing in on his chest and neck. He remained in a coma for several weeks but the doctors had to keep him in a coma as they had to take very drastic procedures including a tracheotomy and ‘reverse breathing’ in order to reduce the CO2 in his blood and raise his oxygen levels. Two months had gone by and my brother was starting to wake up. It was a miracle, a sweet gift from God. We were so afraid we were going to lose him. He was awake now but… he was facing an uphill battle.
While in the ICU and subsequently in the nursing home, he became ill with many very serious viruses. One thing after the other seemed to hinder recovery. One huge challenge was how badly his muscles had atrophied during the coma. His muscles were too weak for him to walk; it was a challenge for him to even move his arm… How would he ever exercise to get this weight off?
Six months into physical therapy, he took his first steps. It was a joyous, hopeful moment. We were ecstatic! He’ll be home soon!!!!! Once he was able to walk with a walker and was off the respirator, he was released from the nursing home.
At home, though, he faced another challenge. The tracheotomy that saved his life now threatened it. His trachea would collapse with each breath, making exercise near impossible—there was a procedure that could be done to correct it, but he HAD to lose weight before they would perform the operation.
We watched him struggle and tried to be there for him but life just seemed to be too tough. Every move he made would leave him breathless. Looking back, I wish I knew about Bios Life Slim earlier. Maybe he would have been able to lose enough weight to have the surgery needed to save his life.
My mother and I started to diet… to show him that he could lose weight even though he couldn’t exercise. I lost 40 pounds. He tried to be very conscious about what he ate, he was making better food choices and drinking lots of water. Then, one day he went to sleep and never woke up again.
There are no words to describe the pain of losing a loved one. There is no pain that had ever come close to the pain I was numb, in shock, weeks had passed and I had this terrible suffocating pain in my chest. I stumbled through life for months, life just wasn’t the same without him. He was like glue, he held everyone together, now we were all falling apart. I cried and I ate, I cried and I ate. I ballooned out 80 lbs. Now at the heaviest in my life, nearly 250 pounds, I was short of breath at bedtime. I could feel pressure on my trachea from the fat in my chest and neck. I think I was starting to suffer sleep apnea from the extra weight. I would try to sleep on my side so I could breathe better but there was so much pressure that the weight would literally push my ribs out of place. I saw the chiropractor two to three times a week and she always had to pop my ribs back in place. If it hurt that bad to weigh 250 pounds, I can’t imagine how my brother suffered at 650.
Not only did I suffer in bed but in all aspects of my life. I could no longer keep up with my kids. My knees just ached. Sometimes I would crawl up and down the stairs because it was just too painful to walk. Lucky for me, my daughter thought it was funny and she crawled up with me. How blessed I am to know that she was not judging me—in a world where being fat is just about worst thing you could be. It’s more socially acceptable to be anything but fat.
I was so depressed. I had a terrible self-image. I felt so ugly, I couldn’t dress nice anymore, nothing fit, I could never find cute clothes in my size. My closet had three shirts in it, all XL or XXL, a tank top, a 3/4 length sleeve and a long sleeve shirt. Same style, in all different colors. I had one pair of size 22 pants. I never had to worry about what I was going to wear; it was the same thing every day. My zipper was broken but it was the only pair of jeans I owned that fit so I held it together with 2 large safety pins. I didn’t go out much so most of the time I just wore my jammies or sweats.
Enter my Dad and Bios Life Slim. Since starting Slim my life has turned around!
After having a serious wake-up call from a heart issue in December of 2009, my doctor told me that I needed to lose weight or it could end up killing me. I took that very seriously and with my glucose levels and triglyceride levels where they were, I needed help.
A friend of mine told me about Bios Life Slim and when I went back into my doctor and talked to him about it. He originally wanted to put me on medication for type II diabetes and for my triglycerides but decided to let me give Bios Life Slim a try. I am SO thankful that he did. My glucose levels are continuously in the normal range now and my triglycerides continue to fall.
I have dropped 55.6 pounds and over 43 inches off my total body!! I look back and see the way that I used to over-eat and it almost cost me my life. I almost left my family without a husband and a father.
I am SO thankful that Bios Life Slim is literally saving my life and giving me a second chance. Thanks to Bios Life Slim I am taking my life back a pound at a time.
Ever since I graduated High School in 1997, I have had weight issues. I was 120 pounds all throughout school but steadily began to gain weight. My highest weight was at 242.
I really noticed my weight was becoming a problem after I had my children. I have a 7 year old daughter, 5 year old daughter and 6 month old son. I gained about 100 pounds with each of my daughters and 65 pounds with my son and I am only 5 foot 3 inches tall.
With all the extra weight I was carrying around, I began to notice that I was having back problems, knee problems and I had NO energy whatsoever. I have been on every diet, every pill and would literally beat myself up at the gym. I would lose weight, but would gain it back; plus a few pounds every time.
I decided that after having my son I wanted to start being healthy for my husband and kids. I was introduced to Bios Life Slim and started to lose weight and to support my husband’s weight loss.
My beginning weight was 220 pounds and I was wearing a size 26 pant size. After 90 days I lost 42.8 pounds and over 35 inches over my entire body and am down to a 14 pant size. I am so glad that I decided to use Bios Life Slim as a way to take my life back for my family and me.
Many of us have struggled to shed fat. There are thousands of weight loss ads out every day! The sad part is, we are faced with a global obesity crisis.
What if there were a simple rule to follow… You know that your body has the control of systems! Would you follow that system to get the results?
I have been on Bios Life Slim for four months now. When I initially started, I was challenged with high cholesterol (over 200) and my glucose levels were over 375 daily — which is extremely high for a diabetic. My blood pressure was high in the range of 180/97.
This all created consistent challenges throughout the day. I would feel lethargic,very weak, hypo-glycemic to the point of wanting to pass out, blurred vision and no energy at all — and this AFTER my kidney transplant (September 12, 2008).
My two primary doctors — Kidney and Diabetic — reviewed the Bios Life Slim product and gave me the OK to use it.
After just 3 weeks of using Bios Life Slim, my numbers improved drastically.
My blood pressure came down to 120/65. My glucose came down to 60-70 fasting and 120-130 throughout the day. And my cholesterol dropped from 218 to 121.
I have also lost 12 pounds in the process.
I’m happy to announce that after just four months on Bios Life Slim, I am experiencing the quality of life that we all deserve to enjoy. No more blurred vision, no more feeling lethargic, no more glucose spikes and no more lack of energy.
I will continue to take Bios Life Slim because it has made an IMPACT on my life, I now feel focused, energetic and healthy. And my doctors are AMAZED with the results!
I have been on Bios Life Slim for two months now. When I initially started, I was pre-diabetic with cholesterol over 200 and my blood sugar was abnormal.
My doctor prescribed 1000 mg. of a common diabetes drug for me to take once a day.
After 1 month of using Bios Life Slim, the dosing was cut in half to 500 mg. once daily.
I’m happy to announce that after just two months on Bios Life Slim, I have been taken off the drug completely, my blood sugar is normal, my cholesterol is under 200, and I am no longer pre-diabetic.
I will continue to take Bios Life Slim because it curbs my appetite with no jitters, it taste delicious, but more importantly, it has improved my quality of life.
I’m so glad that my friend introduced me to Unicity and Bios Life Slim.

“I’d starved myself trying to lose weight, and then I’d gain it right back because it’s just too hard to keep it off. I was looking for something that would help me get rid of the strong cravings I had for sweets and fatty foods,” said Dale Lawinger, who often complained about all the different diets he tried—but nothing had worked for him.
When Dale saw an ad for Bios Life Slim on the message board at the radio station he ordered Slim. After 90 days, he lost almost 50 pounds and life is good again!
“Slim was not only good tasting, but easy to mix, and helps me to control my cravings. Slim trains the body to not have the need for the fats and sweets.”
He added, “I can’t do much about my hair loss, but I can do something about my weight. Slim helps me to
keep me going. If I have a bad day, I no longer give up and go back to my old eating habits. Slim helps me to stay on track.”
As the rates of obesity are skyrocketing in the US, Dale said he doesn’t want to be one more overweight person in the nation. “You see so many people who are overweight compared to years ago. When you’re fat, you feel tired and you don’t look good. And that was my life before I was introduced to Bios Life Slim. If you want to lose weight, drink Slim. It helps you to get rid of the fat, it takes away the cravings, and it’s easy to use. The money I save on not eating out when at work pays the cost of Slim and I still have some left.”
Once you read this you will always remember your Bios Life Slim!
According to a new study conducted by researchers at Columbia University Medical Center, spikes in blood sugar levels can be linked to age-related memory loss. The new study was published this last December in the Annals of Neurology Journal.
Using high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging to map the brain of 240 elderly volunteers, the researchers found a correlation between elevated blood glucose levels and reduced cerebral blood volume in the dentate gyrus, a pocket in the hippocampus section of the brain. The hippocampus is the area of the brain associated with memory and learning formation. Damage to this area of the brain can cause amnesia and it is one of the first areas damaged once diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease.
The finding suggests that tools to improve blood sugar levels may help both the body and the brain as it ages. Dr. Scott Small, associate professor of neurology at Columbia University Medical Center, said in a news release that because blood sugar levels tend to rise with age, “our finding suggests that monitoring and taking steps to maintaining blood sugar levels, even in the absence of diabetes, could help maintain aspects of cognitive health.”
Bruce S. McEwen, who heads the neuroendocrinology lab at Rockefeller University in New York and was not involved in the research, said the study’s findings were “compelling,” with important implications not just for the elderly but for the growing number of overweight children and teens at risk of Type 2 diabetes.
“When we think about diabetes, we think about heart disease and all the consequences for the rest of the body, but we usually don’t think about the brain,” he said. “This is something we’ve got to be really worried about. We need to think about their ultimate risks not only for cardiovascular disease and metabolic disorders, but also about their cognitive skills, and whether they will be able to keep up with the demands of education and a fast-paced complex society. That’s the part that scares the heck out of me.”
Low blood sugar levels have the most impact on the brain since glucose is the primary source of material for its energy production. When the brain senses low blood glucose levels it signals to the body the need to eat more food in order to supply the brain with more energy. This cycle repeats until the body becomes insensitive to insulin. Once the body becomes insensitive to insulin, the pancreas quits producing insulin and the result is diabetes.
