• CAFFEINE
Q: Do your products have any kind of stimulants or caffeine in them?
A: There is some caffeine in green tea, which
is in our Mind and Body Tonic™, but the amount of the
extract is so small that it is unlikely to give you a stimulant type
of feeling. There is more caffeine in a tiny piece of chocolate than
in the Mind and Body Tonic™.
Q: Can I drink coffee at the same time I use your products?
A: You can take coffee or tea with the Ziquin™ products,
but be warned, the increase in efficiency from your body will enhance
the effects of the stimulants. The use of any kind of stimulants is
not generally recommended.

• CLEANSING (retracing
or correcting cycle)
Q: Will I get some kind of cleansing response from your products?
A: When the body is given the nutrients it needs,
it may naturally begin increasing the cleansing or detoxification process.
This is a part of normal biological function. Promoting or maintaining
good health goes hand in hand with natural cleansing of the various
bodily systems.
Q: What are some examples of detoxifying responses?
A: Mild bloating, headaches, constipation or loose
stools, nausea, sugar cravings, fatty cravings, flu like symptoms and
fatigue are some signs that an individual may be cleansing. Some individuals
may not experience these responses at all.
Q: How long does a cleansing cycle last?
A: Each person’s cleansing cycle varies.
Please consult your physician.
Q: Why is drinking water an important part of taking these products?
A: Drinking water is an essential part of maintaining
a high quality of health. Water helps to flush out toxins and balance
the fluids in the body.

• COST
ISSUES
Q: My income is limited and I can’t afford your products. What
do you recommend?
A: With Ziquin, a person can get
greater results using fewer products. The value of
the proprietary nature and efficacy of the Ziquin products
is a tremendous bargain. Even though we use the highest
quality of ingredients available today, we charge the
most reasonable prices to our customers. Standard brands
may appear less expensive, yet they end up more costly
because it takes 4 to 8 times more of a standard brand
to be absorbed by the body. The consumer pays less
with Ziquin products because of the high absorption
value of our ingredients, which are fully and quickly
utilized by the body. Due to Ziquin’s patent-pending
delivery and stabilization process, our nutrition does
not degrade or oxidize. We have many happy customers
paying much less for better health and vitality. If
your budget seems tight, our recommendation would be
for you to review where in your life you are spending
money that does not support your health and vitality.
Can you cut back in these areas to make room for nutrients
that will build a healthier, more youthful future for
yourself?

• DELIVERY
EXPERIENCE
Q: Why do some people seem to get a more immediate feeling of energy
or some kind of shift after taking the products and some do not?
A: It is based on nutritional
deficiency; those who are more deficient sometimes
feel the effects sooner. For example, if you give water
to a person suffering from dehydration, he or she will
feel the effects of hydration more than a person who
has just had water in the last hour.
Q: When I take the Ziquin Mind and Body Tonic™ I get warm. Why?
A: The experience of “getting
warm” is your metabolism kicking into high gear.
We have coined this sensation the “Ziquin Delivery
Experience.” This warming effect is due to the
rapid absorption and utilization of our products once
they enter the body. That’s why many people report
that they feel the product working right away. The “Ziquin
Delivery Experience” has been reported with all
of our wellness products. Each unique product was carefully
formulated to give the body what it needs as quickly
as possible.

• ESSENTIAL
NUTRIENTS
Q: What do you mean by “essential” nutrients?
A: “Essential” in physiological terms
means our bodies cannot manufacture the nutrients required, so they
must be taken in through diet. Based on the Ziquin Philosophy of Wellness,
we recognize that the body’s foundational components are comprised
of the basics we are providing in the wellness products. Vitamins,
Minerals, Amino acids, Systemic enzymes, Fatty acids and Endocrine
support are the basics needed to promote health and wellness in this
modern age. Modern life is faced with many challenges including: toxic
chemicals, depletion of nutrients in our topsoil, global and local
pollution affecting our waterways and oceans, and living in a high
stress environment.
• ILLNESS (specific)
Q: What do I take for a particular illness?
A: Ziquin products are not represented as a treatment
for any disease. They are not medicines or drugs. Ziquin products are
nutritional supplements. They are designed to help promote good health.
If you have an illness, consult with your physician.

• MEDICAL
QUESTIONS
Q: Why
can’t Customer Service answer medical questions?
A: Customer Service is here to
help with problems about orders, deliveries, checks,
etc. All medical questions must be directed to your
personal physician.
Q: Why doesn’t Ziquin have doctors on staff for Associates to
ask questions?
A: Ziquin is in the business of
distribution and education of wellness products, not
the business of medicine or medical practice. This
is only provided legitimately by licensed physicians.
Our products are functional foods and dietary supplements.
They are not prescription drugs. All medical questions
should be directed to your physician.
• MEDICATION
Q: How do I take these products if I am on medication?
A: You
can take the recommended amounts of the Ziquin™ products while
on properly prescribed medications.
Q: At what time should I take your dietary supplements, if I’m
also taking medication?
A: The Ziquin nutrition can be
taken with medication as medication will not compete
for receptor site absorption as regular food or other
nutrition would. Nevertheless consult with your doctor
about starting a new nutritional program with your
medication. Some doctors may want to regulate your
medications.

• MUSCLE
TESTING/ENERGETIC DEVICES
Q: Does kinesiology (muscle testing) work adequately to test your products?
A: In our product line, the All
Xymatic Relief, Energy Endo Biotics and EFA
Complete are stabilized in a unique and revolutionary
way. Ziquin products work with the individual’s
internal processes and are best tested after nutrients
have been ingested in the body. Dr. Yu says the delivery
mechanism of his formulations would be hard to measure
unless it is a metabolic test and not an energetic
test. He has seen the energetic test go both ways – positive
or flat. Dr. Yu advises that before testing the Ziquin
products, they are allowed to pass through the GI tract
and activated internally as designed. He says many
individuals will find that the internal response is
very effective, even off the charts when the nutrients
are tested properly. Individuals who rely on muscle
testing or other devices need some study time in order
to understand the unique nature of the Ziquin products
and how they work.

• ORGANIC
Q: Are your products organic?
A: In most cases our quality control surpasses
the certification requirements to be labeled organic. All the Australian
Sea Mineral products are 100% organic. We source the highest quality
ingredients we can find on the rest of our products, using organic
whenever possible.
• ORTHOMOLECULAR
Q: What is orthomolecular nutrition?
A: In 1968 Dr. Linus Pauling coined the term orthomolecular.
He used it to describe a nutritional therapy involving the use of naturally-occurring substances normally present in the body to treat disease.
Nutritional imbalances are the root cause of biological dysfunction.
It is known that the RDA levels of nutrients are not adequate when
disease conditions are present. If a disease is linked to a nutrient
imbalance, it can be cured nutritionally.

• OSTEOPOROSIS
Q: My family has a history of osteoporosis, and my doctor recommended
additional calcium supplements. If I take your products, do I still
need to use calcium or other supplements?
A: Mineral deficiency in the body
is a widespread problem in most of today’s population.
Osteoporosis or the loss of bone density is not just
a deficiency of calcium, but is an issue of bone development.
Bone development involves at least 11 minerals to build
bone. It is a complex set of interactions requiring
many different vitamins and minerals, including hormonal
support, vitamin D3 and enzymes. Ziquin products are
specially formulated to help your body work more efficiently.
You can eliminate calcium supplements and replace them
with the Ziquin product mix. You may initially need
to take more than one daily recommended amount of the
Ziquin products, but quite soon their interaction will
help regulate your body’s hormones, its nutrient
absorption at the cellular level and activate more
of its systemic enzymes, which make the body work more
efficiently. In short, calcium alone is not the answer
to reversing osteoporosis.
• PREGNANCY
Q: Should pregnant women use your products?
A: Consult your physician before taking any nutritional
program.

• PRODUCT
USAGE (daily)
Q: Which products work best on an empty stomach and why?
A: For maximum absorption and utilization, all
four products work best when taken on an empty stomach. The Ziquin
wellness line of products is designed to absorb very quickly using
specific types of carriers or delivery systems.
Q: Can I take too many products for my body type?
A: No. Every body type requires these foundational,
essential nutrients for normal body functioning. All of these wellness
products will fit almost any type of diet you may be following.
Q: How do you take these products on a daily basis?
A: For best absorption and rapid delivery, the
following four products should be taken on an empty stomach (approximately
1 hour before a meal and 2 hours after).
Ziquin Mind and Body Tonic™
1-ounce is taken each day on an empty stomach*. A good time to take
it is first thing in the morning or 1 hour before breakfast, lunch
or mid afternoon. (If necessary, it can be taken 1/2 hour instead of
the full hour before meals.)
Ziquin EFA Complete™
1-2 teaspoons are taken daily on an empty stomach*. Ziquin EFA
Complete™ can be taken with Energy Endo Biotics™ for
convenience.
Ziquin Energy Endo Biotics™
For best results Energy Endo Biotics™ should be taken
on an empty stomach*. 3 caplets can be taken daily all at once first
thing in the morning or 1 caplet taken 3 times throughout the day.
Additional Energy Endo Biotics™ can be taken in the
late afternoon if more energy and mental clarity are required for late
afternoon or evening activities. Energy Endo Biotics™ can
be taken with EFA Complete™ for convenience.
Ziquin All Xymatic Relief™
The recommended usage is to take 4 caplets daily on an empty stomach*
with 8 oz of water. All 4 caplets can be taken at once (at bedtime,
for example) or 2 caplets can be taken in the morning and 2 in the
afternoon (on an empty stomach*) with 8 oz of water.
*An empty stomach means 2 hours after a meal or 1 hour before a meal.

• PRODUCT
USAGE (for different ages)
Q: What is the recommended product usage for different age groups?
A: For infants and children under the age of 8
parents are encouraged to consult their physician before beginning
a nutritional supplementation program.
Children – age 8-12 can take one half the recommended daily amount.
Teenagers, Adults and Seniors – can take the full recommended
daily amount.
• AUSTRALIAN
SEA MINERALS
-TASTE OF MINERALS
Q: Why do the sea minerals taste so bitter or salty?
A: Ziquin’s Sea Minerals are a rich and
viable source of magnesium. Magnesium tastes very bitter. This bitterness
is accentuated by the combined effect of other minerals and trace elements
known to be essential to our bodies. The bitterness should not be mistaken
for sodium chloride (salt).
Q: How do I disguise the strong taste of the sea minerals?
A: You can do this by adding the sea minerals
to fruit or vegetable juice. This does not fully mask the taste of
the sea minerals, but it does make them more palatable until one acquires
a taste for the minerals.
back to top
-COLLOIDAL
versus IONIC SEA MINERALS
Q: Why should I take sea minerals versus any other type of mineral
on the market?
A: There are many mineral supplements on the market
today. Many “colloidal” minerals sourced from various areas
within Utah are extracted from shale deposits with negligible levels
of beneficial minerals. When you hear the claim “plant sourced” or
sourced from prehistoric plant deposits deep within the wilds of Utah,
please understand that these products have very little bioavailable
minerals, and contain high levels of aluminum. On the other hand, Ziquin’s
Sea Minerals are sourced from pristine ocean waters in Australia, which
supports an abundance of life. It is commonly known that ocean water
and our own blood plasma are chemically almost identical. Each batch
of our sea minerals are tested for purity at an Australian certified
laboratory, which assays products for any kind of contaminants such
as aluminum.
back to top
-DEFICIENCY (MINERALS)
Q: What are some of the signs that a person’s body might be mineral
deficient?
A: A deficiency of one mineral may not initially
show up as a symptom, yet can cause an imbalance in the body, setting
off a chain reaction that can lead to illness or early death. According
to Dr. Linus Pauling, “You can trace every sickness, every disease
and every ailment to a mineral deficiency.”
Q: If I believe there is a specific weakness or imbalance in my body,
how many capfuls of minerals is recommended?
A: The recommended amount is sufficient: 1
capful/teaspoon daily after dinner.
Q: If I ate more vegetables, would I get the mineral intake that I
need?
A: Many fruit and vegetables now contain less
than 50% of the minerals that they did before the advent of modern
farming techniques. Therefore it is highly unlikely that one could
actually consume enough variety and quantity of vegetables to receive
adequate amounts of all the minerals required for optimal health.
Q: Must I take sea minerals for the rest of my life?
A: Once you understand the essential nature of
minerals and are feeling their benefits, wouldn’t you want to
continue taking them? At pennies a day Ziquin's Neptune’s
Nanomeds or Mind and Body Tonic are a great way to get
life giving essential minerals that are not found in sufficient quantities
in our food.

-EFFECTS OF SEA MINERALS
Q: How long will it take before it works?
A: Many feel the effects from Ziquin’s Sea
Minerals within days, yet others require more time. The long term effects
of a mineral deficient diet can take some time to counter. The body
is resilient therefore it takes much less time to reverse the damage
than it did to create the deficiency.
Q: Are there any side effects to sea minerals?
A: The magnesium found in sea minerals may have
a laxative effect, which for many is not a bad thing. If this is a
problem, try taking half the recommended amount. Keep in mind that
this may be a temporary condition that will cease to be a problem after
your body adjusts to the magnesium.
Q: How does Ziquin’s Sea Mineral supplementation improve sport
performance?
A: Minerals (electrolytes) are lost during sports
activities. The more active we are, the more minerals we use up and
excrete by perspiration. Most active people are also active eaters.
This is because the body craves minerals and other nutrients from food.
Minerals and nutrients are the fuel that keeps us going. If we want
peak performance, we need to provide our body with the best fuel possible.
back to top
-IONIC SEA MINERALS
Q: Why are sea minerals in the ionic form the best for the human body?
A: Ionic minerals are bioavailable for cellular
usage. Minerals in an ionic state have specific positive or negative
electrical charges that cause a dynamic equilibrium to take place,
allowing the body to facilitate changes to move nutrients to the areas
that need them. As a result ionic sea minerals are the most compatible
kind of mineral for human physiological needs.
Q: Why are ionic minerals important to your health?
A: Every second of your life, your body relies
on ionic minerals and trace elements to conduct and generate billions
of tiny electrical impulses. Not a single muscle, including your heart,
would be able to function without these impulses. Your brain would
not function and your cells would not be able to use osmosis to balance
your water pressure to absorb nutrients. The absorption of minerals
primarily takes place within the small intestine. Minerals are transferred
into the blood stream through the walls of the intestinal tract as
your food passes through it. This process can only happen if the minerals
are ionically charged. As we age or the body suffers from disease,
stomach acid declines, making the few minerals still available in our
food supply unavailable to our bio-systems.
back to top
SODIUM
Q: How much sodium is in your minerals?
A: Ziquin’s Sea Minerals have very little
sodium. This is achieved during our unique solar concentrate process.
Depending on which Ziquin Sea Mineral product you use, you should not
be getting more than 2% of your RDA of sodium. Another way to describe
this is to imagine that you are getting only 1/50th of your daily requirement
of sodium in a daily dose of Ziquin Sea Minerals.
Q: Is the amount of sodium bad for my heart?
A: Sodium is not only beneficial, it is one of
the most important minerals for maintaining life. It plays a critical
role in multiple processes in the human body, including a vital role
in promoting healthy muscles. The heart (like all muscles) actually
needs sodium to function. The truth is that too much sodium is no worse
than too little sodium. The reason that we have reduced sodium in Ziquin’s
Sea Minerals is because the typical diet has plenty of sodium. There
are many incidences where healthy people avoid sodium out of fear.
Unless a person has a medical condition verified by a qualified medical
doctor, they can enjoy salt in moderation. And remember, sea salt is
best.
-LAXATIVE (MINERALS)
Q: Are there laxatives in sea minerals?
A: Magnesium in high doses is a well-known natural
laxative.
back to top
-MANUFACTURING OF
SEA MINERALS
Q: How are the sea minerals processed?
A: As the label says, “ocean derived and
solar concentrates.” Ziquin’s Sea Minerals are extracted
from pure Australian ocean water. They are harvested in custom built
ponds where the minerals are slowly concentrated by the sun’s
evaporation. During this long and tedious process the minerals are
continually monitored for consistency and purity.
Q: Why are Ziquin’s sea minerals so special?
A: Unlike other mineral products, sourced from
rock, shale, dirt and plants, Ziquin’s sea minerals are sourced
from the ocean. We believe that ocean water is as close to a perfect
source of minerals that is available to man. This is further supported
by the similarity of ocean water and our own blood plasma. Ziquin’s
Australian Sea Minerals are the most bioavailable, complete, balanced,
pure and natural mineral source available today. Additionally, Ziquin’s
sea minerals are a rich and natural source of magnesium, which is so
lacking in our modern diet.
Q: What is so special about sea minerals with specific herbs? Why not
take them separately to get the same affect?
A: Herbs by nature are very fragile, and quickly
lose potency when harvested. The herbs in our special formulations
are specifically blended with the minerals using a very unique
cold pressed method. To ensure the integrity of the enzymes and
other nutrients of the herbs, no heat or chemical extraction processes
are used whatsoever. Sea minerals have great preserving and delivery
properties. The process used to combine the herbs with sea minerals
stabilizes and preserves the full healing properties of the herbs.
back to top
-PURITY OF SEA MINERALS
Q: How pure are your Australian sea minerals?
A: Our sea minerals are a rich source of essential
minerals and trace elements, derived naturally from the clean ocean
waters of Australia. We only source our minerals from pristine areas
of the Australian coastline to ensure purity. Australia is a country
nearly the size of the United States yet 1/15th the population. Heavy
and stringent regulations maintain a clean environment.
Q: Do you test your products for toxicity or heavy metals?
A: Every batch of Ziquin Australian Sea Minerals
is tested at NATA labs for purity. This is an Australian certified
laboratory, which sets the highest standards for assaying products
for any kind of contaminant, including aluminum.
-MEDICATION
AND SEA MINERALS
Q: Is it okay to take both my medication and sea minerals?
A: Before starting any health program, it is best
to ask the advice of your doctor.
back to top
-PRODUCT
USAGE OF SEA MINERALS
Q: Which sea mineral formula is best for me?
A: Neptune’s Nanomeds is an excellent choice
to provide the foundational minerals required for a healthy diet. However
if you have a particular condition or system weakness, then consider
one of
Ziquin’s Sea Minerals with Herbal blends.
Q: How much sea minerals should I use?
A: One capful is the equivalent of one teaspoon.
It is not necessary to take more than this in a 24-hour period unless
one has a chronic condition.
Q: At what time should I take my sea minerals?
A: Historically we received our minerals from
the food we ate. For this reason it is best to take minerals during
mealtime. The magnesium in sea minerals also promotes regularity. It
is best to take them during the evening meal. This supports the body’s
repair at night, and healthy bowel functions in the morning.
• SOY
Q: Should I avoid the Mind and Body Tonic if I have allergies
to Soy products?
A: Not at all. In order to give you the finest
quality amino acids available from an all natural vegetarian source,
we use 100% organic soy protein isolate. In the manufacturing process,
all traces of soy are removed, leaving behind only the free form amino
acids. Rest assured that the amino acids contain no trace or residue
of soy, or any harmful chemicals. The Mind and Body Tonic is
100% safe for use with people who have allergies to soy or soy products,
as well as providing a 100% vegetarian product.
back to top
• STORAGE
TIPS
Q: Is there an expiration date for any of the products once they are
opened?
A: There is an expiration date from the time of
manufacturing to when the products are no longer a viable nutrient
source, which is approximately 5 years. We have taken the time to insure
product stability through all natural means.
Q: What happens if I forget to refrigerate the products?
A: Nothing at all. But we do recommend what the Mind
and Body Tonic label states: “refrigerate after opening.” As
a safety precaution follow the other product label storage recommendations
to insure that you are always receiving the same quality product that
is put into the bottles when manufactured.
• TASTE (bad/strong)
Q: I don’t like the taste of the EFA Complete. What
can I do about it?
A: You can mix it with about 2 ounces of fruit
or vegetable juice or combine it with the Mind and Body Tonic.
Q: The Mind and Body Tonic is too strong for me and seems
to burn. What should I do?
A: You may take smaller amounts at a time
and sip it. Or follow the tonic with some water. However do not
stir the tonic into water as the water will decrease the potency.

• TRADITIONAL
CHINESE MEDICINE
Q: How does Chinese medicine play a role in the effectiveness of Ziquin’s
dietary supplements?
A: Traditional Chinese Medicine allows for
the understanding of subtle energies. This knowledge enables us
to precisely decide what nutrients can be combined for the best
overall balance of energy within a single product and helps us
to augment the vital forces within a complete revitalization program.
• VEGETARIAN
Q: Are your products vegetarian?
A: Many of the Ziquin™ products are vegetarian. The 100% vegetarian supplements are Ziquin’s Australian Sea Mineral line, the Ziquin Mind and Body Tonic™, the Ziquin EFA Complete™ and Hepatic Shen Food™.
