V-Net's Allimax ``Wonder'' Water the Hit of the Show 12/15/2004 8:17:00 AM
BLUE ISLAND, Ill., Dec 15, 2004 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- V-Net Beverage, Inc. (Pink Sheets: VNTB.PK-News) announces it has secured Modern Products as master distributor for V-Net's Allimax(R) Nutraceutical Water(TM) following its phenomenal acceptance at SOHO Expo 2004. Modern Products, founded in 1925 by health-food pioneer Dr. Gayelord Hauser, is a leading provider and distributor of natural/organic foods and products in America. Modern sells directly to the largest drug chains including CVS, Walgreen's, Rite-Aid and Osco, and plans a major national campaign to introduce Allimax(R) Nutraceutical Water(TM) to all its numerous contacts over the next 60 days. In order to maximize the product's reach into the marketplace, Allimax(R) Nutraceutical Water(TM) will also be marketed through Modern Product's own network of 18 natural foods distributors.
Available for distribution in first quarter 2005, Allimax(R) Nutraceutical Water(TM) is a unique and delicious beverage incorporating natural spring water, pure berry flavors and AlliSURE(R), patented stabilized allicin. A powerful anti-microbial derived from garlic, allicin has been shown to defeat a range of bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites, and abbreviate cold symptoms. Scientific studies show AlliSURE(R) effective against certain strains of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, so-called "super-bugs."
V-Net further announces its current product offerings-- Rush Herbal Cola, Ginseng Rush, Ginseng Rush XXX-- were also received with great acclaim at recently concluded SOHO Expo 2004, a major natural-foods trade show. Samples of all our beverages were available at Modern Product's booth, and trade response was unreservedly enthusiastic. Retailers avidly snapped up the show's 25-case special.

"In the near future, V-Net will announce additional allicin-based, anti-microbial specialty products. We believe there are numerous untapped ways AlliSURE(R) can be beneficially used."

BLUE ISLAND, Ill. & CRESTLINE, Calif., Dec 15, 2004 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- V-Net Beverage, Inc (Pink Sheets: VNTB.PK) and Fire Mountain Beverage Company (Pink Sheets: FRBV.PK) announced today that a successful marketing and sales plan negotiation has been completed to immediately extend the distribution of Fire Mountain's products through the network that V-Net has been building. V-Net recognizes the growing demand for the quality lifestyle beverages that Fire Mountain produces and agrees that children and adults must hydrate themselves properly, with quality products, as a foundation for general health.
V-Net agrees to place Fire Mountain's products into the national, natural and specialty foods distributor network that distributes V-Net's products. The alliance immediately brings Fire Mountain to V-Net's level in this category. Fire Mountain's unique formulations of vitamin fortified beverages are a natural fit as additional items for V-Net distribution. Together, the two companies will chart a new path promoting healthy, living products for the beverage industry.
According to FRBV president Bennett Vinson, "We are excited about our new relationship with VNTB and believe that this venture provides advantages to both companies, and we are made stronger through this united effort. Our ultimate goal is to develop products that incorporate the attributes of both companies."

By: bilderberger 17 Dec 2004, 01:35 PM EST Msg. 6009 of 6017 (This msg. is a reply to 6008 by checkmate28.) Jump to msg. # FLASH! I just telephoned a man with an interest in promoting oil of oregano. I knew he had planned to attend the recent SOHO Expo, so I called him to get the lowdown. He told me that, to his chagrin, the Allimax Water was the all the buzz at SOHO. He told me everybody was walking around the floor drinking water from a blue bottle!!! hahaha He himself tasted it and liked it.
Oregano oil is used as a nutraceutical with anti-microbial properties. While in Europe, allicin is the natural anti-microbial of choice, much more oregano oil (with its powerful odor and taste!) is sold in North America than garlic/allicin for nutraceutical purposes.
I met the man in question at his booth at a major natural foods show not long ago and we exchanged cards. He was of course aware of garlic/allicin preparations, but had not yet heard of Allimax. I advised him then of its virtues, and he seemed quite impressed, albeit in a nervous, fidgety way.
I can assure you that this man knows all about Allimax Wonder Water and V-Net now. I think he too sees the writing on the wall.

FEW PARAGRAPHS TAKEN FROM Nutrition Outlook article Dec 19th, 2005.
"Positioning a launch against a trendy, conventional product is another effective strategy. V-Net Beverage Inc. (Blue Island, IL) took on the big boys when it reformulated low-calorie Rush Cola. V-Net expects to compete favorably with reduced-calorie sodas such as Coca-Cola C2.
'We've conducted an informal taste comparison pitting Rush Cola against Coca-Cola C2,' stated Robert Corr, president. 'All-natural Rush Cola delivers cola flavor without artificial sweeteners. With C2, one had to hunt for the cola flavor, and some were put off by C2's use of not one, but three artificial sweeteners.'
Coca-Cola C2 is sweetened with aspartame, acesulfame potassium, and sucralose.
Coor, a 25-year beverage industry veteran, formulated Rush Cola with ginseng, rhodiola, and other herbs. 'The cola giants have strayed from the real cola flavor they offered years ago,' Corr says. 'Most consumers don't even know how good a natural cola beverage can taste, much less a natural cola boosted by an array of legendary herbs.'
Low-cal and regular versions of Rush Cola were initially introduced in Canada. The United States introduction is scheduled for fall 2004."
Corr added, "The flu-vaccine shortage and increasingly virulent microbes worldwide make it imperative to re-examine ways people stayed healthy before the advent of modern medicinals. At V-Net, we are working to expand the potential of revolutionary, patented stabilized allicin."

Healthy Beverages Soar Again Wednesday Dec 22, 2004 By: Jim Wagner, Editor
After years of growth, fortified beverages show no signs of slowing down. Could it be something in the water?Healthy beverages are a profitable category. According to Business Communications Company, Inc. (BCC; Norwalk, CT), functional beverages were the largest segment of the functional food industry in 2002. Overall growth is expected to slow to 5.7% annually, but BCC expects phenomenal growth in some subcategories, leading to an $11.5 billion segment in 2007.
