Founder's Commentary for October, 2005

Greetings friends and supporters of the Alternative Medicine Referral Network;
September was indeed a great time for growth for the Alternative Medicine Referral Network.

In addition to signing on some great companies as sponsors, we attended some wonderful events and promoted our network.

At the end of the month, we held our first mixer and I want to thank everyone who was present. There were approximately 65 people in attendance and the mixer was hosted by international Business Intuitive, Mr. George Shaver. George was a pleasure to talk with and was the perfect host. During the week, we will be setting up a live line where anyone with questions can talk to George directly by clicking an icon on our website.

The Alternative Medicine Referral Network was also represented at the CAMEXPO, held in Los Angeles. This was a wonderful show! I left the show thinking that this is truly a wonderful time to be present in this world. I believe that we can treat and reverse; - if not cure most of the ailments people have through the use of better nutrition along with alternative and complementary therapies. I encourage anyone who has been diagnosed with a chronic illness to call us and contact one of our alternative physicians.

There is a new sponsor we have, Nationwide Beverage Bottling, Inc. I encourage you to take a look at their products and if you are so drawn, consider investing. Not even having been in business for a year, I am impressed by the number of large clients they have in their portfolio.

Nationwide Beverage Bottling initiated public trading on the Pink Sheets as of May 12, 2005 (NBVB.PK). As a new member, we are anticipating rapid growth and are in the process of petitioning for trading options on the NASDAQ as soon as time permits. Unlike other new companies, we are not in the start-up phase in need of seed capital. We have a manufacturing company with significant capacity to produce a thousand bottles of water per minute and we have a marketing and distribution liaison in existences. We look for rapid and continued growth as our company gains its foothold in the market place.

Nationwide Beverage Bottling has been doing a local “road show” in southern California at various malls. In addition to providing water for U.S. Troops and Katrina victims. KoKomo Water is a flagship product of NBB. KoKomo brand offers a complete line of naturally flavored mountain spring and "aqua-ceutical" water products.

We are also working to make the Alternative Medicine Referral Network more "user friendly" and get our referral clients more quickly in touch with practitioners and clinics. There is a feature we will be adding to cross-connect those with questions directly with a therapist. This feature has been implemented and is being fine-tuned during October.

I feel as though we are at the flash-point of what I call a "Revolution in Wellness". This has taken root in the national consciousness and I see it through people who call our referral line, visits to holistic clinics and simply day-to-day contact. More people than ever are seeking to be truly "Well", and are willing to make lifestyle changes. I ask that more of us continue to share our experiences with others so more people may benefit.

The use of alternative therapies is increasing.

Nearly two-thirds of American adults use some form of complementary or alternative medicine ranging from prayer to herbs, a U.S. government survey showed. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention conducted the survey of 31,000 U.S. adults, asking about 27 types of therapies such as acupuncture and chiropractic, the use of herbs or botanical products, special diets, and megavitamin therapy. About 36 percent of those surveyed said they had used one or more of those approaches. When prayer was considered, the number rose to 62 percent. Women, people with higher education, those who had been hospitalized within the past year and former smokers were all more likely to use complementary or alternative approaches, the survey found.

We are a resource for those seeking health answers.

With more people than ever seeking information on alternative medicine and receiving treatments from alternative practitioners, we formed the Alternative Medicine Referral Network to be a resource for the general public to connect with licensed, certified and pre-screened holistic practitioners.

Be Healthy,

Derrick Walker,
