Larry Thompson's Seabiotics Story

Larry Thompson’s Seabiotics Story

Back in the 80’s when Mark Hughes and I began selling herbs out of the trunks of our cars, we didn’t realize then we were starting a new segment of wellness with herbal remedies - not as an ingredient, as a new segment in the health and wellness industry. From the back of those trucks, Herbalife was created from meager beginnings.

Today, once again, we are bringing a new segment of wellness with answers to today’s challenging health issues coming from another source - the sea, and because of my own debilitating illness, Seabiotics has gone from a thought in 2002 to a company impacting people around the world.My life’s focus was creating good health, believing that proper nutrition, supplementing, and exercise were all the essential keys.

Having spent 38 solid business years in health and wellness, to have suddenly found myself debilitated by chronic fatigue in 1997 was unimaginable and unthinkable. Astounded and often in despair, not understanding why or how this could happen, spent five years hiding it believing death was near. I did my best to accept this was my fate; this was how my life would now play out until one life-changing encounter with an amazing man, Dr. Floyd Weston, turned everything around.

Dr. Weston recommended a product in Norway he believed would help and for the next two months, I swallowed 60 capsules a day of shark liver oil (Alkyglycerols) and things began to change. Looking around at my family and friends, just like so many families today, there were considerable health challenges everyone faced.

There was my brother, Lonnie, with emphysema, my nephew, Butch, who had lost 3 inches off his height from spine damage, my brother-in-law, Jim, an insulin dependent diabetic, and my finance’s mother who had Lupus and chronic fatigue. And so asked Dr. Weston, would this help them, too, and he said of course, it will help all of them and while we didn’t know it at the time, we had just created Seabiotics.

Very few people will swallow 60 capsules a day and we knew we had to find a way to create a liquid form. In conversations with Dr. Weston, he shared his idea of creating a proprietary blend of Omega 3s and Alklyglycerols (shark liver oil) that would be a product like none ever seen before.

That idea would take 18 long months of research and development, and the creation of a proprietary molecular distillation process to purify and blend the oils. Finally, in 2003, 4000 unlabeled bottles arrived in America not to sell and make a profit but to share with my family and friends to see if they, too, would have the amazing results I did. We gave them to Butch, Lonnie, Jim, anyone and everyone who wanted to try.

Amazing and unbelievable reports began to come back to me, reports that were like nothing I personally had ever heard before in 40 years in the wellness industry.

While the Seabiotics research and development team had been sharing with me all along the impact this synergistic blend would have, we were totally unprepared for the remarkable results as reports began to come in. I knew of the benefits of both Alkyglycerols and Omega 3, individually, and knew AKG’s would enhance the immune system by penetrating the cell wall membranes and oxygenating the blood supply.

The unexpected and extraordinary results were coming from the ability of the AKG’s to act as a perfect delivery system for the Omega 3 offering a far greater health benefit than taking Omega 3 by itself.

While the blending may sound simple, bringing it together could never have been accomplished in 18 months had it not been for the decades of experience of our medical, scientific and manufacturing teams working together non-stop. We were able to develop not only the concept and the blending, but the creation of a proprietary molecular distillation process to protect the efficacy of each ingredient, eliminate all contaminants, a flavoring process and create a shelf life without adding any chemicals.

The efficacy of each ingredient, EPA, DHA and the AKG’s, had to be protected during the blending process while bottling under nitrogen and ensure the products were free from all detectable contaminants with all concerns of oxidation eliminated. We accomplished all those goals and much more.

It took commitment, passion and enormous dedication that led to the development and creation of two of the greatest products many are saying are the biggest breakthrough in wellness in the last 50 years, Alkyl Transfactor and Neurofactor, and our scores of dedicated customers would overwhelmingly agree with that.

The importance of Omega 3’s and AKG’s have come into wellness in the 21st century in an extraordinarily huge way. Scientific and medical research teams from numerous medical communities, such as John Hopkins, UCLA, Harvard, to Dr. Joseph Hibbeln of the National Institutes of Health, all unanimously agree on the necessity to health of adding EPA and DHA to our bodies.

Even though this awareness has never been higher blazing across our headlines sinking into our consciousness, only a shocking 8% of the American public is taking an Omega 3 and of those that do, they are taking a food grade quality Omega of very little value.

Seabiotics is the only product on the planet to synergistically blend both Omega 3 and AKG with unparalleled purity, potency and efficacy of the highest pharmaceutical quality obtainable. There is no question, as so many are saying far and wide, Seabiotics leads the way in sea-based products with solutions to today’s challenging health issues.

As these words are being written to you, Seabiotics is undeniably my proudest moment, of which there have been many, through out my years in the wellness industry. I truly believe much is given, much is required and am so very fortunate to have been given back my health.

Because of that, it is my goal to pass this message on to help as many people as possible prevent health challenges, maintain the good health they now have or to reclaim their health as I’ve been blessed to do. Regardless of how important this message is and how strong my feelings are, it cannot be done alone.

We need your help. By sharing this life changing story with one person at a time, you can make a huge difference in the lives of many from friends and family, throughout your local community, anyone and everyone you pass this on to.

We ask that you not only be dedicated to using our products but that you tell everyone you come in contact with, they, too, can maintain, create and most important of all, reclaim their health.

Thanks for reading my message and story, a message I am proud to say is felt and shared throughout the Seabiotics Community. Our customers and members embrace these products and the promise they hold with a passionate desire to share them knowing, as I do, there is a miracle in our liquid bottles of gold.

With warm regards,

Larry Thompson
