PATTON PROTOCOL

The Patton Protocol is a year long program utilizing a combination of breakthrough Western Technology and Chinese Tradition.

The Patton Protocol consists of 3 parts:

Baseline Assessment

The first part is Baseline Testing to establish your current biomarkers of aging. This testing takes place in New York City and costs $2,860 (Note: your insurance may cover up to $860 of this amount) plus $500 for a consultation with a doctor. Baseline consists of:

1. Extensive bloodwork consisting of 90 specific tests.
2. Additional blood work sent to UCLA's immunology lab in Los Angeles to measure sophisticated immune functions (CD8+/CD95 and CD3+/CD8/CD28- flow cell counts).
3. Seven specific biomarkers of aging done in a doctor's office:
   1. Arterial Stiffness
   2. Pulmonary Function
   3. Cognitive Function
   4. Contrast Sensitivity (Vision)
   5. Skin Elasticity
   6. Bone Density
4. Two separate Telomere Length measurements at two different Universities.
5. After about 3 weeks, when all these tests are in, there is a private doctor/patient consultation with one of our affiliated anti-aging expert doctors. The consultation can take place over the phone, but ideally the consultation would take place in person in New York City. The doctor gives impartial medical advice and receives no additional fees or benefits if you decide to actually sign up for the Patton Protocol.

At this point you decide if you want to go on the Patton Protocol. There is no obligation.

First 6 months of the Patton Protocol

The Protocol consists of a 6 months supply of TA-65 and a complementary 6 month supply of other basic nutritional supplements which we call TA Support Packs ( see ingredients ). At the end of that 6 month period, participants come back to New York for the first follow up. We will repeat the blood work and biomarkers and you will have your second doctor's consultation. At this point the results will be compared to the baseline numbers to see what things have improved. Results are in black and white, each person will know how their baseline numbers compare after 6 months of using TA-65.

This first 6 months of the Patton Protocol costs $10,750 plus $500 for the second doctor's consultation.

Last 6 months of the Patton Protocol

After reviewing your results, you then decide if you want to continue on the Patton Protocol for another 6 months. At the end of the full year period you repeat all the testing and have a final doctor's consultion.

The price for the second half of the Protocol is the same as for the first half: $10,750 plus $500 for the 3rd and final doctor's consult.

The Patton Protocol ends after one year. At that point we will discuss a possible continuing TA-65 maintenance program at a reduced cost. Because this is leading edge technology and results will vary from person to person, we actually do not know at this point if any follow up will be desirable or not.
