PREVENTION

EMMAUS, PA 18099

Dear Reader:

My Grandmother lived with us when I was growing up.

She used to give me camomile tea when my stomach was upset. She insisted that the family use vinegar to rinse hair and made a cucumber cleaner for my face. As I grew older, I decided Grandmother was hopelessly out of date.

Then a few years ago, I began remembering how it was ,when I lived with her. How shiny and healthy our hair had always been. How beautiful my skin remained throughout adolescence. How full of energy and vitally all of us were without our soft drinks, candles and snack foods (she wouldn’t allow them in the house --- “empty foods,” she’d snort… and hand me a box of raisins or dried apricots).

I was reminded of Grandmother when I noticed how often the government removed a chemical from the market after everyone had been eating it for years. I began wondering whether the products I was using today would be forbidden tomorrow.

And that started me thinking about how many chemicals I used and ate. Almost everything contains chemicals! I kept reading how scientists thought some of them caused serious medical problems. How simple things like headache could create other troubles.

I was stunned by the number of foods that were almost completely “fake” --- most of the good things had been taken out and chemical substitutes put in.

You read about threats and dangers to your health like these everyday. In almost every newspaper and magazine you open.

But I know of only one publication that tells you --- sincerely and consistently --- how you may combat these problems… what you may do to try to live healthier in this often unhealthy world of ours: PREVENTION magazine.

If you’ve ever seen PREVENTION, you know its style. Understandable. Practical. Down-to-Earth. It’s the magazine that over two million Americans regularly turn to for the help and advice that they often cannot find them from any other source --- sometimes doctors included.

If you haven’t seen the magazine… I’d like to send you the latest issue so you can take a good look. I’m sure you’ll find its “feel better” ideas as stimulating as a breath of fresh air.

To get your no-risk, no obligation copy of PREVENTION magazine…

1. Just mail the enclosed postpaid card. BUT SEND NO MONEY NOW.
2. We’ll send you PREVENTION and enter a trial no-risk 12-month subscription in your name.
3. If you like what you see and want to subscribe to PREVENTION magazine’s unique brand of “feel better” advice, simply pay the $6.99 invoice.
   
   If not, just mark “cancel” on our bill, return it and owe nothing. You keep the first issue free of charge.

Now, that’s a fair offer, isn’t it?

And we’re making it so easy because we want you to take just one look --- so you can see just how valuable PREVENTION magazine may be in your life.

Why so valuable?

Because PREVENTION is the cheapest, most easily accessible source that you have to much of the latest medical research findings… to some of the alternative ways to try to “get better” and “stay better” without resorting to drugs and surgery… to the basic, earthy, natural approach to better healthy and better living that my Grandmother (and perhaps, yours, too) knew almost intuitively.

WHY DO YOU NEED PREVENTION?

It’s an honest question. And, basically, the answer is three-fold:

1. PREVENTION tries to help you even-out the increasing odds against your better health. Open any newspaper or magazine and you’re likely to read about another chemical in your environment… another additive in your food… another way that may shorten your life span; another way perhaps leading to diseases like cancer or heart trouble.

It’s getting so depressing that many people block it out of their minds. They “grow accustomed” to the new dangers. They try to pretend they don’t exist. But that doesn’t make these potential dangers disappear; it doesn’t make life any healthier, longer… or even happier.

PREVENTION tries to alert you to the dangers, too. But we don’t stop there. Every issue tells you what you may do to try to avoid them… possibly correct them… and, in some cases, even perhaps repair some of the damage that they may have already done.

2. PREVENTION tells you more than your doctor perhaps can or will. Today, surgery and drugs are not the only “get better” alternatives available to you. There are other other options open. Options that, often, are safer, cheaper, gentler than those of “traditional medicine.” Time after time, we’ve found that a NUMBER OF TODAY’S PHYSICIANS MAY NOT EVEN BE AWARE OF THESE ALTERNATIVES. So how can you expect to know of them?

PREVENTION tries to be your link. You learn about how your body functions… what it needs for better well-being… how you may, many times, correct a minor illness or ailment yourself. PREVENTION may help you be a more intelligent, more aware medical consumer. (After all, your health is your responsibility.)

3. PREVENTION seems to work well. The PREVENTION System for Better Health apparently gets results. If it did not, we would most certainly not be the number one health magazine in the world today --- which we are --- with over two million regular subscribers.

We make no miracle claims; offer no instant results. All we say is if you truly want better health…

...PREVENTION may show you --- step-by-step --- the things that you may do to help achieve these desires.

Isn’t worth a free look? And if PREVENTION works for you, isn’t it well worth the ^6.99 subscription price? We think so. Over two million monthly readers think so.

But what do you think? Look first (at our risk) and then decide. Here’s how…

REMEMBER OUR NO-RISK OFFER: LOOK NOW, DECIDE TO SUBSCRIBE LATER

Of course, I could go on and on about PREVENTION. Sharing with you the many ways the PREVENTION System has helped me personally… telling you about specific natural healing techniques… quoting some moving testimony from PREVENTION readers…

...but I’ll spare your time.

One free look is worth a thousand words of advertising. And PREVENTION speaks for itself --- powerfully.

So you be the judge.

Just mail the enclosed card to inspect PREVENTION --- the modern “get better, feel better,” natural health system whose roots go very deep indeed.

I’m on the PREVENTION System. And I’ve got to tell you, I feel better --- and look better --- because of it. It has helped me. It may help you, too.

I hope you try PREVENTION. I hope everybody does. We need a little more “real” in our lives and a few less substitutes.

Sincerely,
