Infertility

WHAT IS INFERTILITY?

In general, infertility is defined as not being able to get pregnant (conceive) after one year (or longer) of unprotected sex.

What is the cause of infertility?

Infertility is commonly caused by problems with ovulation (the monthly release of an egg from the ovaries). Some problems stop an egg being released at all, while others prevent an egg being released during some cycles but not others. Ovulation problems can be a result of: Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS).

Superfood


Spirulina is one of the most popular superfood supplements out there. 

Here's what to know about the benefits of spirulina.

Spirulina, a natural algae found in both fresh and saltwater, has long been called a superfood because of its high concentration of nutrients and antioxidants. While the ancient Aztecs were among the original users of spirulina, today it's a common ingredient in smoothies, juices and more. NASA has even found a way to repurpose it, growing it in space to help astronauts stay healthy, as reported in the journal Marine Drugs.

Now, spirulina is one of the most popular supplements on the market. However, you should still use caution, as research on its effects continues. Before you use spirulina, this is what you need to know.

HEALTH BENEFITS OF SPIRULINA

Spirulina is a type of blue-green algae, considered one of Earth's oldest life forms. It is a cyanobacteria that uses photosynthesis to create energy, similar to a plant. Because of its natural nutritional content, it has been called a superfood for humans, but how does it actually affect human health? 

These are some of the known health benefits of spirulina.

1. It's Full of Nutrients and Antioxidants.

Spirulina has many different nutrients that the body needs to stay healthy, including vitamins such as thiamin for healthy metabolism and vitamin A for vision, as well as minerals such as copper and iron that help improve immunity. There are also other nutrients, like omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids that fight inflammation, and antioxidants like phycocyanin and beta carotene that help reduce the risk of certain diseases. With 60% protein content, spirulina provides more protein than many vegetables and is a popular protein source for vegans and vegetarians.

Dried Spirulina (1 tsp)

Vitamin | Amount

Protein: 4 grams

Calcium: 8.4 milligrams

Thiamin: 14% of the Daily Value (DV)

Riboflavin: 20% of the Daily Value (DV)

Niacin: 6% of the Daily Value (DV)

Copper: 47% of the Daily Value (DV)

Iron: 11% of the Daily Value (DV)

Spirulina also contains magnesium, potassium and manganese in small amounts. 

All of these vitamins and nutrients can help you meet your daily nutrition requirements.

2. It Can Support Healthy Cholesterol.

Spirulina has been found to lower "bad" and total cholesterol and triglycerides, while increasing the good cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein (HDL). This prevents the fat and cholesterol in your blood from clogging your arteries, which, in turn, can put strain on your heart. One small study found that those who took 1 gram of spirulina daily had lower cholesterol after just three months.

Maintaining healthy cholesterol levels helps prevent heart disease, as well as heart attack and stroke, per Harvard Health. 

3. It Could Help Your Immune System.

Spirulina contains vitamins and minerals that are important for immune health. Additionally, research has found that it increases production of white blood cells and antibodies, both of which the body uses to fight illness. Importantly, spirulina's effects on the immune system make it risky for those with autoimmune diseases like lupus, per WebMD.

Spirulina's anti-inflammatory properties may also benefit people with allergies from common culprits including dust, pollen and pet hair. It has been explored as an alternative treatment for allergic rhinitis symptoms, although more research is needed. 

4. It May Lower Blood Pressure.

Spirulina can increase the production of nitric oxide, which relaxes the blood vessels and helps them dilate. Multiple studies have found that a daily dose of spirulina can help reduce both systolic and diastolic blood pressure (the first and second numbers on a blood pressure reading). It has also shown positive effects for those who have hypertension. 

5. It Can Support Eye Health.

Spirulina can benefit eye health as well. It is rich in beta-carotene, an antioxidant that the body converts into vitamin A. Vitamin A has been shown to help prevent vision loss and promote better eye health, per the American Academy of Ophthalmology. 

According to the Icahn School of Medicine at Mt. Sinai, spirulina also contains a high concentration of zeaxantuin, which can reduce the likelihood of cataracts and age-related macular degeneration. Some animal research has supported spirulina's eye health benefits.

Diabetes Solution

Diabetes is a condition where the amount of glucose in your blood is too high because the body cannot use it properly.

This is because your pancreas doesn’t produce any insulin, or not enough insulin, to help glucose enter your body’s cells – or the insulin that is produced does not work properly (known as insulin resistance).

* Insulin is the hormone produced by the pancreas that allows glucose to enter the body’s cells, where it is used as fuel for energy so we can work, play and generally live our lives. It is vital for life.

* Glucose comes from digesting carbohydrate and is also produced by the liver

* If you have diabetes, your body cannot make proper use of this glucose so it builds up in the blood and can’t be used as fuel.

There are Two Main Types of Diabetes:

  • Type 1 Diabetes and
  • Type 2 Diabetes.

SICKNESS: Diabetes

BENEFITS THRU’ DXN PRODUCTS:

- Helps reduction of blood sugar levels ( over a period of time)

- Helps prevention of Diabetic Complications (like Nephropathy, Neuropathy, Retinopathy, Heart problems, body pains, Ulcers, Gum bleeding)

- Improves Body Energy and Muscle strength.

- Reduces Polydypsia, Polyphagia and Polyuria.

Anti-Pyramiding

MLM vs. Pyramiding


MLM vs. Pyramiding

Multi-Level Marketing (MLM) is a legitimate business model that pays commission to individuals at multiple levels when a sale is made, while pyramid schemes are fraudulent schemes that are designed to look like MLMs. The main difference between the two is that MLMs sell a real product, while pyramid schemes do not:

MLM

In an MLM, participants receive commission based on the total sales volume generated, and for sales made by their recruits. Most people who join legitimate MLMs make little to no money, and some even lose money.

Pyramid Scheme

In a pyramid scheme, participants make money by recruiting new participants into the program, not by selling products. Pyramid schemes can look like legitimate MLMs, and may even sell real products. However, participants and their recruits often lose a lot of time and money. 

Definition of Direct Selling and MLM vs. Pyramiding

Direct Selling is face-to-face selling to the consumers through independent distributors or sales people. It is a legitimate marketing medium that is used to sell practically anything.

Pyramiding is an illegal money scam often confused with legitimate network marketing plans, where people are convinced to pay money for a chance to profit from the payments of others who might join later.

How to Differentiate a Legitimate Direct Selling Company from Pyramiding using the 8-Point Test
  1. Is there a product?
  2. Are commissions paid on sale of products and not on registration/entry fees?
  3. Is the intent to sell a product not a position?
  4. Is there no direct correlation between the number of recruits and compensation?
  5. If recruitment were to be stopped today, will the participants still make money?
  6.  Is there a reasonable product return policy?
  7. Do products have fair market value?
  8. Is there a compelling reason to buy?
  9. If the answer to all the questions is YES, then the company being evaluated is a legitimate company.  But if the answer is NO, then there is a high probability that it is a pyramid scam.
MLM (Multi-Level Marketing) vs. Pyramiding

Though MLM (Multi-Level Marketing) and pyramiding (or pyramid schemes) may seem similar at first glance, they have critical differences in their structure, legality, and business practices. Here's a detailed comparison:

1. Definition
   - MLM (Multi-Level Marketing):
     MLM is a legitimate business model where individuals sell products or services and recruit others to do the same. Participants earn commissions on their sales and a percentage from the sales of their recruits, typically structured in multiple levels.
   - Pyramiding (Pyramid Scheme):
     A pyramid scheme is an illegal scam focused on recruiting participants. Earnings are primarily generated by recruiting others rather than selling a product or service.

2. Core Activity
   - MLM:
     The focus is on selling a tangible product or service. Recruitment is secondary and ideally not the primary source of income.
   - Pyramiding: 
     The core activity is recruitment. Any products involved are often overpriced or of little value, serving only to disguise the scheme.

3. Revenue Generation
   - MLM:
     Income comes from product sales and commissions from the sales of your recruits.
   - Pyramiding:
     Income relies almost entirely on recruiting new participants who pay upfront fees or buy starter kits. Without recruitment, the system collapses.

4. Sustainability
   - MLM:  
     A legitimate MLM can sustain itself as long as the product or service has market demand and distributors focus on sales.
   - Pyramiding: 
     Pyramid schemes are unsustainable because they depend on an ever-growing base of recruits, which becomes mathematically impossible over time.

5. Legality
   - MLM:
     MLMs are legal in many countries when they comply with consumer protection laws, operate transparently, and focus on selling valuable products or services.
   - Pyramiding:  
     Pyramid schemes are illegal in most countries because they exploit participants and are fraudulent by design.

6. Red Flags of Pyramiding
   - Promises of high, quick returns with little effort.
   - Emphasis on recruitment over product sales.
   - Products are overpriced or of low value.
   - No refunds or buyback guarantees.
   - Lack of transparency in compensation plans.

7. Examples
    - MLM: DXN (if operating under ethical, legal standards).
  - Pyramiding: Companies that have been shut down for fraudulent activities, like some Ponzi schemes disguised as MLMs.

MLM is a legal, product-focused business model, while pyramid schemes are illegal scams reliant on continuous recruitment. When evaluating an opportunity, focus on the 'value of the product, transparency of the business, and whether income primarily depends on selling products or recruiting others'.

SCAM


An investment scam is a fraudulent scheme designed to trick individuals into investing money with the promise of high returns, but the perpetrators either steal the funds or use them for purposes other than those stated.

These scams prey on people’s desire to grow their wealth and often use deceptive tactics to appear legitimate.

COMMON CHARACTERISTICS OF INVESTMENT SCAMS:

1. Guaranteed High Returns: Promises of unusually high or guaranteed returns with little or no risk.

2. Pressure Tactics: Scammers may push for immediate decisions, claiming the opportunity is limited.

3. Unregistered Investments: The investment may not be registered with appropriate regulatory bodies.

4. Lack of Transparency: Scammers provide little information about how the investment works or where the money goes.

5. Pyramid or Ponzi Schemes: Some scams involve paying returns to earlier investors using funds from new investors rather than actual profits.

6. Fake Credentials: Scammers may claim to be professionals or use fake licenses and endorsements.

COMMON TYPES OF INVESTMENT SCAMS:

1. Ponzi Schemes: Returns to investors are paid using funds from new investors, rather than from profit earned.

2. Pyramid Schemes: Participants recruit others to invest, and profits are earned through recruitment rather than a legitimate business.

3. Pump and Dump Scams: Fraudsters artificially inflate the price of a stock and sell their shares at a profit, leaving others with losses.

4. Cryptocurrency Scams: Fake ICOs (Initial Coin Offerings) or fraudulent crypto investment platforms promising massive returns.

5. Offshore Investments: Scams involving foreign investments that promise tax benefits or high returns but are unregulated and risky.

HOW TO SPOT & AVOID INVESTMENT SCAM:

▪︎ Verify Legitimacy: Check if the company or individual is registered with financial authorities.

▪︎ Research: Look for reviews, complaints, and other red flags about the opportunity.

▪︎ Avoid Pressure: Legitimate investments do not require rushed decisions.

▪︎ Understand the Investment: Be clear on how the investment works and the risks involved.

▪︎ Seek Professional Advice: Consult a financial advisor or lawyer before committing.

If you suspect an investment scam, report it to your local financial regulatory authority or consumer protection agency.

Direct Seller DXN to Charter Corporate Jet for RM27M


DIETARY supplement
direct seller DXN Holdings Bhd is chartering a corporate jet for one year at the rate of US$6.15 million (RM27.1 million) if it uses its own pilots. This works out to around RM2.3 million a month.

Its wholly-owned subsidiary DXN Aero Nautic Sdn Bhd has entered into an aircraft charter agreement with charter carrier Luxaviation San Marino Srl and charter manager ExecuJet Asia Pte Ltd to charter a Gulfstream G550 corporate jet for one year, the company said in an exchange filing today (Nov 7).

It said the subject aircraft to be chartered by DXN Aero was currently owned by LSJ Logistics Ltd, a wholly-owned subsidiary of LSJ Global Sdn Bhd, which is also a major shareholder of the company. Hence, it noted that the deal was deemed to be a related party transaction.

LSJ Global, the vehicle of DXN chairman and founder Datuk Lim Siow Jin (picture), is DXN’s largest shareholder with a 68.27% stake.

LSJ Global owned 3.58 billion shares or a 74.3% stake in DXN prior to its IPO in April 2023. DXN was first listred on the main market of Bursa Malaysia in 2003 before being taken private in December 2011.

In its charter agreement, DXN Aero Nautic, formerly known as DXN Biofuels Sdn Bhd, has committed to a minimum of 300 flight hours for the 12-month period at the rate US$22,000 per flight hour or US$20,500 per flight hour, in the event the lessee’s own pilots are operating the aircraft.

At minimum flight hours, that works out to US$550,000 per month based (US$6.6 million for the whole year) or US$512,500 per month (US$6.15 million for the whole year) if flown by its own pilots.

In the exchange filing, DXN said it intended to employ its own pilots to operate the aircraft. As of Oct 23, the company had two pilots on staff.

“The two different rates provide the company with flexibility to utilize the charter manager’s pilots, in the event of pilot shortage. This arrangement allows the company to maintain seamless operations while minimizing the costs associated with hiring additional full-time pilots,” it said.

DXN Aero’s principal activities are the provision of management logistical and marketing services.

For the first six months till Aug 31, 2024, the DXN company has posted a net profit of RM151.5 million on a turnover of RM963.5 million.

DXN shares ended the day at 56.5 sen, its lowest in 52-weeks, valuing the company at RM2.8 billion.
