Explanation of attached raw data:
The following page is a chromatographic graph generated by a High Pressure Liquid Chromatograph (HPLC). The peak of interest in these chromatograms is the one called Allicin. This compound is considered to be an active ingredient marker of garlic and is also considered to be an indicator of efficacy in a number of studies on garlic and heart disease. The samples are named SHD 1-10 representing the 10 different samples which you sent to Hedron.
Important to note is the consistency throughout all ten samples. Statistically, these numbers show a mean value of 82-9 and a standard deviation of 4.19 leading to a coefficient of variation of just over 5%. This is an excellent CV, with numbers as high as 15% considered acceptable. A low CV percentage such as this indicates a very consistent product. The chromatograms laid diagonally illustrates this point dramatically.
Our conclusion: The Strauss Heartdrops are manufactured with quality control measures in place which allow for a stable and consistent product.

Recipe for Success
For most people: We suggest Strauss Heartdrops for a minimum of 12 consecutive months.
For persons with a known history of problems: We suggest Strauss Heartdrops for an extended period of 18 months, and then an indefinite maintenance regimen.
If you desire, you can stay on Strauss Heartdrops indefinitely.
We suggest: Shake bottle vigorously, place drops under your tongue, hold for a full minute or two, then swallow, preferably on an empty stomach. If this is not possible because you have just eaten, it is still better to take the product than not.
Important:
Strauss Heartdrops and other herbal blends are not prescription drugs. Each individual must experiment, to find how much they need to take for their body type, it is better to take more than not enough. If you are still not yourself after 30 days, double up the amount, and again in 30 days if you feel it is necessary. You should not need to exceed 1/2 teaspoon or 80 drops 3 times daily.
How much: Preferred 15 drops, 3 times daily (morning, noon and bedtime). Optional 25 drops, twice a day (morning and night).
Some people will take more: Up to 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon three times daily (40-80 drops 3 times daily). We suggest you start with the minimum amount of 15 drops and if need be work up to the 40-80 drops over the next 30-60 days.
Maintenance amounts: 20 drops once a day.
PLEASE NOTE: 20 drops = 1/8 teaspoon, 40 drops = 1/4 teaspoon, 80 = 1/2 teaspoon.
If you are sensitive to the spicy drops, work your way up to the target level. Start with as little as 1 drop 3 times per day, and then add 1 or 2 drops per day until comfortable taking the recommended amount.
Don't like the taste?
You may dilute the drops in approximately 1/4 cup of water and swallow.
You can purchase empty capsules in which to put the drops. Swallow capsules immediately as the drops will start to dissolve the capsule very quickly. Capsules are readily available in Health Food Stores.
You may enjoy the drops as a seasoning on your salad or other foods.
DO NOT REFRIGERATE: Store Strauss Heartdrops at room temperature away from direct sunlight. If drops do become congealed from being cold, warm them up (one method is to put bottle in a container with hot tap water) and then shake bottle before use.
DO NOT MICROWAVE.
To Maximize Your Objectives
Just as herbs can be blended to work synergistically, healing should also be done synergistically. Some ailments require several products to support more than just the depleted body function or organ. They should be used together to provide support to the body as a whole. A healthy diet is also very important for healing. We cannot create an environment for health when we continue to bombard the body with counter-productive toxins.
Complementary Products For your specific needs please refer to complementary products to help maximize your success. Allow one hour between taking herbal preparations in capsule form and half an hour between liquid forms.
Strauss Thyroid Capsules: The ingredients in this blend have historically been documented to support a healthy thyroid, which can result in healthy cholesterol levels. The thyroid is a small, butterfly-shaped gland that regulates the body's metabolism by releasing hormones. Lack of the thyroid's hormone decreases the liver's ability to clear cholesterol from the blood. In the liver, thyroid hormones determine how well the most harmful form of cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein (LDL), is removed from the blood.
Strauss Heart Blend: The ingredients in this blend have been historically recognized to promote a healthy heart and heartbeat, and may help increase circulation by supporting a strong heartbeat without putting a strain on the heart muscle.
Strauss Cayenne Capsules: Historical usage suggests cayenne may act as a stimulant to the circulatory system and helps promote circulation to all parts of the body as well as acting as a catalyst for other herbs so their full benefits can be achieved.
Strauss Kidney & Blood Pressure Blend: The ingredients in this blend have historically been used to aid the kidneys, which play a major role in removing waste from our blood, keeping blood pressure at a healthy level. Wait 30-60 days while on the Heartdrops before adding the Kidney & Blood Pressure Tea.
Strauss Ginkgo Capsules: Historically used to help tone and relax blood vessels and act as a circulatory stimulant. Ginkgo may support healthy blood pressure levels.
Strauss Wonder Tea Original: A great tasting healthy alternative drink with over 20 herbs; enjoy hot or cold anytime.
Recommended Diet: There are many things you can do to improve your overall health. On the next page are some simple suggestions. Remember, you are what you eat, so think twice before consuming non-beneficial foods. If you can, try to eat wholesome foods at least 80% of the time. Your body will thank you.

Who Should Not Take Strauss Heartdrops?
Pregnant Women:
Product effects during pregnancy are unknown; therefore we do not recommend Strauss Heartdrops for pregnant women.
Breastfeeding:
The Strauss Herb Co. does not endorse the use of its products while breastfeeding as the properties of the herbs may be transferred through breast milk to the infant, which can cause colic.
Children:
Children are not always able to communicate their symptoms effectively; therefore the Strauss Herb Co. does not endorse the use of products on children.
We're All a Little Different!
Generally people who take the Strauss Heartdrops are impressed and start recommending them to loved ones in very short time. As body types differ so can the results, many people experience effects in a few days, while for others it takes weeks, and for some a couple of months. Quantity and frequency are the keys for maximum success.
We would like to be able to claim that we fully understand the complex biochemical actions of our Strauss Heartdrops and their interactions with the human digestive system, but perhaps it is best to let our customers relate their experiences with the Heartdrops. That being said, if you do a little research just on garlic, you will discover that there are over 100 bioactive compounds in natural garlic alone and hundreds more in the other herbs we use to make the Strauss Heartdrops. It would be the height of arrogance, even with all the science in the world, to pretend we understand the biochemistry of the synergistic reactions between the ingredients and the differing "human environments" into which they are ingested. But as the old saying goes, "the proof of the pudding is in the eating".
Some May Experience...
Heartburn: The cayenne and/or the garlic in the Strauss Heartdrops may cause heartburn. The longer you hold the drops in your mouth the less spicy they are when swallowed. Start with 1 to 5 drops a day and slowly build up the dosage. Eating 1 tablespoon of homemade sauerkraut (made with salt only, not with wine or vinegar) 15 minutes before taking the drops may eliminate the heartburn. Eating 1 heaping tablespoon 3 times per day on an empty stomach may help rebuild the stomach lining and help repair ulcers. Salt-cured sauerkraut instantly relieves heartburn. Call for the recipe or look for non-pasteurized fermented cabbage juice or sauerkraut usually available in a health food store or delicatessen.
Detoxification:
Some people may experience detoxification when using Strauss Heartdrops?. These toxins may leave the body through pores in the skin and provoke temporary skin irritation like a rash or pimples. You may also experience diarrhea or an increase in bowel movements, increased urination, headache, dizziness, nausea and/or gas. All of these are quite likely to occur during detoxification, signs your body is expelling toxins. If this becomes uncomfortable, reduce Strauss Heartdrops? dosage to as little as 1 drop a day (do not completely stop taking) until the detoxifying stage is complete. This is a very good thing, as you are detoxifying. A modification to your diet and/or habits may be required to reduce or stop the influx of new toxins. Once this stage is over, add 1 or 2 drops per day until you are comfortable taking the entire serving.
Cholesterol Levels:
Some people may experience a temporary rise in cholesterol levels while taking Strauss Heartdrops and the timeframe varies from person to person. During this time, continue on with Strauss Heartdrops at the present serving size. If your cholesterol levels do not normalize after 6 months, even after increasing your serving as directed, you may have an under active thyroid. (See complementing products.)
Interactions With Other Substances
For more than 22 years Strauss Heartdrops? have proven compatible with prescription medications, foods and herbs. Note: Some pharmaceutical drugs may have side effects that are the same as the symptoms.
Experience has shown it may be necessary to have your prescription drug dosage lowered. Do not take Strauss Heartdrops and prescription drugs together. Allow two hours between.
Alcohol and Strauss Heartdrops
Alcohol is a very effective solution in mobilizing the herbal properties that are active within plant cells, and is an excellent preservative.
Recovering alcoholic: Through our experience, recovering alcoholics do not have any problems during or after taking the Strauss Heartdrops. When taking a serving of 15 drops the most alcohol ingested is approximately 6 drops. It takes 160 drops to make a teaspoon.
Removing alcohol: If you are still concerned about consuming alcohol then there is a very simple solution. Simply add the drops to a little (1/8 oz) hot water and then leave for a minute or two, then drink on an empty stomach. This will make the alcohol evaporate off, while maintaining the benefits of the herbs.

Dear Sirs,
After two weeks of taking your Heartdrops I want to inform you of how pleased I am with the results. After two weeks taking your Heartdrops, I have not had any pain for a week. I sleep well at night, and felt this well during the last three years. I am very pleased.

To Whom It May Concern:
Three years ago I was rushed to the hospital with indigestion and chest pain. I was diagnosed as a Type II Diabetic, which caused my myocardial infraction (heart attack).
My family doctor and heart specialist put me on heart, cholesterol, and diabetic pills. Before the heart attack, I had minor arthritic joint and muscle pain but after starting all these prescriptions the arthritic pains got so bad I could hardly go to work. The medications cause blood crystals as one of the side effects, which inflame my arthritics.
Less than a week after starting Strauss Heartdrops, the arthritic muscle and joint pains are completely gone! Plus, I feel a 100% better, have more energy and sleep better. I just feel better all the way around!
In my opinion, Strauss Heartdrops has also helped bring my sugar count down when I test each day. I have no side effects from taking the drops after 3 weeks.
Thanks Strauss Heartdrops.

I am employed at Weyerhaeuser Canada Ltd. Pulp mill in Kamloops. In April of 1998, I had to get off work because my right eye was giving me problems. I used reading glasses but they did not help. I visited an eye specialist and he gave me an angiogram right away. Then, another two weeks later, I was finally diagnosed with macular degeneration in my right eye. He then told me that there was no cure for this and suggested to get onto long-term disability. I felt like I had been told to go home and die. I decided to see my family doctor, and requested a complete physical check-up. The results of this were excellent, but for my eye. In June I started taking the Strauss Heartdrops three times a day. In less than four months, my eye was cured. To ¡°magic¡± Strauss Heartdrops: thanks a million.

This is just a note to tell you about the impact your product has on my business and our customers.
Since we started carrying the Strauss Heartdrops, my sales have taken off. We are up about 30% and it is mostly due to the sales of the Heartdrops. People are very exited about this product and are talking to each other throughout the hospitals in Newfoundland. We have four bypass surgeries to live back in February is now gone back to work. Another lady had a heart attack 18 months ago and just recently had a stress test done after taking the Heartdrops. The doctors had to ask her why she was there having a stress test done. When she explained that she had a heart attack 18 months ago, they did not believe her. Her test was absolutely clear.
I have heart that many good stories about the Heartdrops that I have started taking them myself. Everyone that passes through my stores gets an introduction to the drops. Even if they do not need them, they probably know someone who does.
This is one of those products that not only changes your life but also changes the lives of everyone around you. Keep up the good work and thanks again.

I exercise on a treadmill and also lift weights. Before taking the drops I would get a dull ache in my left arm after vigorous exercise, and also be quite exhausted and breathing heavily during cool down. Since taking the drops, the ache in my left arm has disappeared and I am no longer short of breath at the beginning of my cool down. I use to have to pace myself when working around the house and in the yard, but Since taking the drops I can work a full day without stopping for a rest. With my doctor¡¯s approval I have become a competitor in the Bill Phillips¡¯ Body for life challenge, which involves twelve weeks of high intensity cardiovascular and weight training. Since taking the ¡°Strauss heartdrops¡±, I have also notice a marked improvement in my hearing.
I consider it amazing that I have been living so close to the Strauss Herb Company for so many years, unaware of this incredible product. By chance, my grandson happened to date a girl whose mother was a distributor for the company. His girlfriend¡¯s mother send a brochure home with him for me, as my grandson informed her that I was into natural remedies. Last week I phone Mr. Jin Strauss and asked permission to write to you, and send details and brochures of his company¡¯s products. Mr. Strauss gave me permission, hence this letter.
On August 30th, 2001 I will be 81. The drops have transformed my life. My heart problems have gone, my energy level is way up and my eyesight and hearing have improved: amazing!!
As a long time member of the HIS, I wanted to tell you about this product, and supply information for your consideration. There are no words that I can call on to adequately express my feeling of gratitude to Mr. Jin Strauss and his family.

Dear Sir/Madam,
This week I received your Health Report on heart disease. Four months ago, I discovered a herbal blend that claimed to have been curing heart disease for over two decades, with a 95% success rate. This herbal blend is called ¡°Strauss Heartdrops.¡± The heart drops apparently have no side effects, clear blocked arteries and subsequently remove angina pain in a short period of time.This herbal formula was prepared by Mr. Jin suffered his only heart attack in 1980 and was advised that bypass surgery was his only option for survival. He elected not to undergo surgery, choosing to attempt to cure himself by combining the herbs he knew from experience had the power to dissolve the buildup in his arteries. Jim was successful, and is now offering that same herbal mixture (Strauss Heartdrops) to thousands of other people. These users of the Strauss Heartdrops are living testimony to its curative powers.
I had no heart problem until 1994, due to the side effect of the drug hydrochlorothiazide. It left me with angina. My doctor offered me nitroglycerine, but I chose CQ10 and exercise. It took me eighteen months to clear the angina, but left me with a dull ache in my left arm when exercising.
After hearing about the Strauss Heartdrops and reading the available literature, I began to take them with a view to clearing my arteries. After six weeks of taking the drops, I had the biggest surprise of my life.
I had been informed about the Strauss Heartdrops¡± and the beginnings of macular degeneration and cataracts some twelve years ago. Consequently, I have been checking my sight by regularly looking at an Amsler recording chart that I have mounted on my refrigerator. My sight has been slowly getting worse: looking at the chart with my left eye, the chart was clear but distorted, the squares bending in all directions; my right eye had bad distortion plus some black areas. As a result of my failing eyesight, I gave up night driving. After taking the drops for six weeks, the Amsler recording chart now appears clear and far less distorted with both eyes, and I can now read small print with my right eye. When I drive I can see distant signs more clearly, it has been an amazing and dramatic improvement.

Dear Natural Way: (now Strauss Herb Company)
I, Harvey D. Shultz was introduced to The Strauss heartdrops and Kidney + Blood Pressure Tea¡± quite by chance, like so many good things in my life. My high blood pressure has been troublesome for some years, Dr.s medicine alone along with a carefree lifestyle certainly didn¡¯t do much to enhance the situation.
I have been on the Strauss formula for three months now with some varied results, but a recent adjustment of my medication, and a very certain change in life style has tipped the scales greatly in my favour. I personally have had the dramatic experience where medication side effects were very devastating indeed. As I said, with certain precise changes along with the Strauss formula, I enjoy a better quality of life at almost 59 year of age than I did some ago. For me personally, organic and natural cures far out-shine the manufactured pharmaceutical and chemically enhanced products by far. Medication dose have its place, no doubt, but should be used very wisely. As the old saying goes, an ounce of prevention is worth far more than a pound of cure. Believe it! It's very true because I am living this precious experience.

For years my ankle caused me pain during cold weather due to an earlier high school accident. Previously I experienced frost bitten fingers so that in the cold weather they would become sore and discolored. Since starting the Heartdrops my ankle and fingers do not bother me in cold weather.

Strauss Heartdrops and Quality Herbal products
In the 24 years I have been in clinical practice, working in three offices, I have not encountered health problems so quickly.
Most notable have been the famous Heartdrops. So many patients and friends have taken the drops and have not had anything but praise for the results, even after heart surgery.
Not only is the cardiovascular (heart and lungs) system strengthened, but so many other health spin-offs such as circulation, energy, cholesterol, blood pressure, breathing, digestion, etc all have improved in a remarkable way. These drops are also recommended for prevention.
I was introduced to these high quality products by a teacher and mentor of mine for over 25 years, Dr. Leo Roy. Dr. Roy was extremely particular in so far as the herbs, cell extracts and minerals he used to help his patients. He wanted to know how they were produced and if there was any damage done to the original substrate or enzymes. He investigated thoroughly not only the ingredients, but how well they could be digested and assimilated by the tissues.
Dr. Roy was an outstanding pioneer in the field of natural medicine after he became disillusioned with the medical field he had originally chosen, following his father¡¯s footsteps. He was light years ahead in his research and knowledge of the quality of various food supplements and companies on the North American continent.
It was for this reason that I felt confident in investigating the Strauss herbal products and I have not been disappointed in the results. These products do not have to by promoted; they sell easily after the first trial.
I have found so many positive surprises in treating various conditions that I wish I had known about the integrity of this company and their products years ago.
Yours for Supreme and Radiant Health.

Dear Natural Way Herbs: (now Strauss Herb Company)
Approximately 4 months ago, I was experiencing shortness of breath, tiredness, burning leg muscles when walking and irregular sleep patterns. I was referred to Mr. Strauss, through a friend. He recommended Heartdrops. After approximately two months I noticed a remarkable difference in my energy, leg muscles and stamina. I also have enthusiasm again.
I would recommend it to everybody.

Dear Peter,
It's high time I wrote to tell you about my life changing experience with Dr. Strauss Heartdrops.
In the year 1988 I had a heart attack and then in 1993 I underwent triple-bypass surgery. In March of 2001 I began to get angina pain for the first time since the surgery. The pain grew in severity and frequency and was accompanied by increasing four days. There I was given heart medication, until I was stabilized. Then I was sent home with prescriptions for heart medication, nitro patches and an appointment with a cardiologist and a firm warning to take it easy. In other words I was back on the medical merry-go-round.
My strength was almost gone. I was unable to walk the length of a city block without pain and I still had take nitro spray daily. Having been down this road before, I knew only too well, that the medical profession had nothing to offer me but more harsh medicine, with all the accompanying side effects, stress tests, ultra sound, angiogram, and finally surgery.
I started taking Dr. Strauss Heartdrops on March 27, 2001 and after just five days the angina pain stopped. That was almost 10 months ago and I have not had any angina improved.
After just two months of taking Heartdrops I was able to do nine minutes on the treadmill during my stress test. My cardiologist was very surprised and very impressed. She recommended that I continue taking the Heartdrops. She wanted information on them so she could check it out for herself. She told me that, because I was doing so well, I need not come back to see her for at least a year. After the stress test I went back to complete the electrical wiring in my friends new home, a job I thought someone else would have to complete.
I am now, once again, able to do all kinds of manual labor, within the limitations of my 70-year-old body. With the approval of my doctor I was able to discontinue all my heart medications about two months ago. I thank you with all my renewed and improved heart. God Bless Dr. Strauss
