INVENTION TITLE:
SPECIAL FORMULATIONS FOR CHILDREN AND FOR ADULTS
DESCRIPTION
Heading Overview of Foodbar Market [Para 1] Food bars are quickly becoming the archetypal food for the 21 st century America.
This is due to the fact that people have less time and desire to cook, but are also increasingly interested in better diets (high protein, low fat to low carbohydrate.) Food bars, particularly the energy and nutrition varieties, serve the purpose -there is no at-home preparation, it can be held in one hand, and it can be easily purchased at most food or food-related outlets.
[Para 2]
Food bars, vary in size and composition from the new wave of breakfast bars to bite-size versions that are blurring the lines between candy and cookies. Food bar producers want to appeal to the growing needs by focusing on the portability and wholesome ingredients in their food bar products. New items such as high protein Atkins' Bar, Cliff Bar'sLuna line and PowerBar's Pria, Ultra Slim Fast line are aimed specifically at women and or persons desiring weight loss. Flavours typically feature age-old favourites like chocolate, peanut butter, and strawberry and cake or cereal type textures and or tastes.

FOR ADULTS Page 2 of 10 CONFIDENTIAL FOR CIPO FROM DR.VIE INC.
[Para 3]
Adults are a large target market for the food bar manufacturers due to portability and weight-loss claims of their snacks. However, children are also increasingly selecting food bars as a snack or treat along with a meal. Children (ages 2-18) eat snack-type foods while watching TV (26%), eating a meal (26%), doing nothing in particular (14%), doing homework (5%), or playing -computer- related games (5%). According to Snacking in America Report, snacking habits are honed early in life. Children under 18 account for a-quarter (27%) of all snacking in America, with boys eating snacks more often than girls.
Alarmingly, the latest report identifies preschoolers and teens as the most important snack-consumers, based on how often they snack today and what statistics project 10 years from now.
Unfortunately, for children, sugar-based, caffeinated chocolate, processed carbs, non-organic granola or cereal bars feature high on the snack list of preference. The reason is: TASTE
cultivated by addiction to sugar, fat and carbohydrates.
Heading Properties of Food Bars [Para 4]
The combination of ingredients in most of the 'healthy' food bars on the market, are in fact not healthy and not suited to the general population. The food market continues to be inundated with the less than wholesome food bars, i.e. containing sugar, honey, rice syrup, preservatives/additives, trans-fats/hydrogenated products, genetically modified components, processed food, non-organic ingredients, allergenic properties, high glycemic SPECIAL FORMULATIONS FOR CHILDREN AND
FOR ADULTS Page 3 of 10 CONFIDENTIAL FOR CIPO FROM DR.VIE INC.
index components, high protein sacrificing good carbohydrates and in many cases low dietary fiber.
[Para 5] In the natural health sector, research has shown that sugar, especially refined sugar, is the number one culprit for an assortment of diseases from diabetes to cancer.
Furthermore, it is addictive. As we know, children are easily addict-prone.
This means that children who are reared on unwholesome food, become addictive to unhealthy eating patterns, and inevitably are prone to diseases as they become adults and age.
This ultimately is highly costly in the long run- sick employees, over-burdened healthcare, and more importantly, unhappy families.
[Para 6] Research has also shown that additives, preservatives and non-organic ingredients lead to toxicity in the body. A majority of the population is allergic to one or more snack-type ingredients for example: corn based syrups, nuts, sesame seeds, soy, lactose and milk.
A mild form of allergenic response is lack of satiation leading to increased consumption of the allergenic food. Related responses include hyperactivity and dependence on the allergen. Foods that may seem healthy albeit have a high glycemic index lead to diabetes and, or, weight gain and burden the liver. An interesting tangent over the last five years has been the trend of low-carb, high protein diets. Concomitantly, many of the newer food bars tout high protein while sacrificing good fiber and of course taste (synthetic texture).
Heading Good Food Bars [Para 7] The lack of sufficient fiber in the body, and consequently less-than-ideal removal of waste from the body, has been the leading cause of a multitude of digestive and systemic SPECIAL FORMULATIONS FOR CHILDREN AND
FOR ADULTS Page 4 of 10 CONFIDENTIAL FOR CIPO FROM DR.VIE INC.
diseases that result from fermenting and rotting food retained in the intestines. Healthy, clog-free intestines are important for good health hence sufficient good carbohydrates and fiber is critical in one's diet. Some of the recent research on natural health foods indicates the importance of basic foods that aid the body in waste removal while nurturing the healthy functioning of organs. Natural foods that contain omega 3 fatty acids and or antioxidants like walnuts, pumpkin seeds, flax seeds, hemp seeds, noni fruit, coffee beans, cacoa, carob, berries, green tea, ginseng, gingko biloba and herbs fall into this category. A
combination of these ingredients promotes good intestinal flora and health for all ages.
[Para 8] To date, a sparse number of food bar manufacturers have attempted to blend a natural food philosophy into their food bars. However the result has been a less-than-delicious food item with insufficient fiber and some allergenic component.
Additionally, the dollar-cost of healthy organic foods is a high, making the choice between prevention of disease through healthy foods a financial strain and difficult choice. In conclusion, the "healthy food bars" (still lack a high rating) are far from delicious, and hence are avoided by the larger children's market, are considerably more expensive, and ultimately are out of the reach of the population who actually need it.
Heading Our FoodBar [Para 9] There is definitely a high demand for snack bars due to our hurried lifestyle, hence there is a great need to develop healthy snacks that are delicious, organic, and nutritious.
To date there is no food bar on the market that uses a combination of natural vegetarian sources of high omega 3 fatty acids and antioxidants in a low glycemic foodbar.
This patent applies for protection of a unique Formulation for a line of healthy, organic, natural, good fiber and tasty food bars that include a combination of vegan sources of omega 3 fatty acids, anti-oxidants and anti-aging nutrients through a unique binding SPECIAL FORMULATIONS FOR CHILDREN AND

INVENTION TITLE:
SPECIAL FORMULATIONS FOR CHILDREN AND FOR ADULTS
DESCRIPTION
Heading Overview of Foodbar Market [Para 1] Food bars are quickly becoming the archetypal food for the 21 st century America.
This is due to the fact that people have less time and desire to cook, but are also increasingly interested in better diets (high protein, low fat to low carbohydrate.) Food bars, particularly the energy and nutrition varieties, serve the purpose -there is no at-home preparation, it can be held in one hand, and it can be easily purchased at most food or food-related outlets.
[Para 2]
Food bars, vary in size and composition from the new wave of breakfast bars to bite-size versions that are blurring the lines between candy and cookies. Food bar producers want to appeal to the growing needs by focusing on the portability and wholesome ingredients in their food bar products. New items such as high protein Atkins' Bar, Cliff Bar'sLuna line and PowerBar's Pria, Ultra Slim Fast line are aimed specifically at women and or persons desiring weight loss. Flavours typically feature age-old favourites like chocolate, peanut butter, and strawberry and cake or cereal type textures and or tastes.

[Para 3]
Adults are a large target market for the food bar manufacturers due to portability and weight-loss claims of their snacks. However, children are also increasingly selecting food bars as a snack or treat along with a meal. Children (ages 2-18) eat snack-type foods while watching TV (26%), eating a meal (26%), doing nothing in particular (14%), doing homework (5%), or playing -computer- related games (5%). According to Snacking in America Report, snacking habits are honed early in life. Children under 18 account for a-quarter (27%) of all snacking in America, with boys eating snacks more often than girls.
Alarmingly, the latest report identifies preschoolers and teens as the most important snack-consumers, based on how often they snack today and what statistics project 10 years from now.
Unfortunately, for children, sugar-based, caffeinated chocolate, processed carbs, non-organic granola or cereal bars feature high on the snack list of preference. The reason is: TASTE
cultivated by addiction to sugar, fat and carbohydrates.
Heading Properties of Food Bars [Para 4]
The combination of ingredients in most of the 'healthy' food bars on the market, are in fact not healthy and not suited to the general population. The food market continues to be inundated with the less than wholesome food bars, i.e. containing sugar, honey, rice syrup, preservatives/additives, trans-fats/hydrogenated products, genetically modified components, processed food, non-organic ingredients, allergenic properties, high glycemic SPECIAL FORMULATIONS FOR CHILDREN AND
FOR ADULTS Page 3 of 10 CONFIDENTIAL FOR CIPO FROM DR.VIE INC.
index components, high protein sacrificing good carbohydrates and in many cases low dietary fiber.
[Para 5] In the natural health sector, research has shown that sugar, especially refined sugar, is the number one culprit for an assortment of diseases from diabetes to cancer.
Furthermore, it is addictive. As we know, children are easily addict-prone.
This means that children who are reared on unwholesome food, become addictive to unhealthy eating patterns, and inevitably are prone to diseases as they become adults and age.
This ultimately is highly costly in the long run- sick employees, over-burdened healthcare, and more importantly, unhappy families.
[Para 6] Research has also shown that additives, preservatives and non-organic ingredients lead to toxicity in the body. A majority of the population is allergic to one or more snack-type ingredients for example: corn based syrups, nuts, sesame seeds, soy, lactose and milk.
A mild form of allergenic response is lack of satiation leading to increased consumption of the allergenic food. Related responses include hyperactivity and dependence on the allergen. Foods that may seem healthy albeit have a high glycemic index lead to diabetes and, or, weight gain and burden the liver. An interesting tangent over the last five years has been the trend of low-carb, high protein diets. Concomitantly, many of the newer food bars tout high protein while sacrificing good fiber and of course taste (synthetic texture).
Heading Good Food Bars [Para 7] The lack of sufficient fiber in the body, and consequently less-than-ideal removal of waste from the body, has been the leading cause of a multitude of digestive and systemic SPECIAL FORMULATIONS FOR CHILDREN AND
FOR ADULTS Page 4 of 10 CONFIDENTIAL FOR CIPO FROM DR.VIE INC.
diseases that result from fermenting and rotting food retained in the intestines. Healthy, clog-free intestines are important for good health hence sufficient good carbohydrates and fiber is critical in one's diet. Some of the recent research on natural health foods indicates the importance of basic foods that aid the body in waste removal while nurturing the healthy functioning of organs. Natural foods that contain omega 3 fatty acids and or antioxidants like walnuts, pumpkin seeds, flax seeds, hemp seeds, noni fruit, coffee beans, cacoa, carob, berries, green tea, ginseng, gingko biloba and herbs fall into this category. A
combination of these ingredients promotes good intestinal flora and health for all ages.
[Para 8] To date, a sparse number of food bar manufacturers have attempted to blend a natural food philosophy into their food bars. However the result has been a less-than-delicious food item with insufficient fiber and some allergenic component.
Additionally, the dollar-cost of healthy organic foods is a high, making the choice between prevention of disease through healthy foods a financial strain and difficult choice. In conclusion, the "healthy food bars" (still lack a high rating) are far from delicious, and hence are avoided by the larger children's market, are considerably more expensive, and ultimately are out of the reach of the population who actually need it.
Heading Our FoodBar [Para 9] There is definitely a high demand for snack bars due to our hurried lifestyle, hence there is a great need to develop healthy snacks that are delicious, organic, and nutritious.
To date there is no food bar on the market that uses a combination of natural vegetarian sources of high omega 3 fatty acids and antioxidants in a low glycemic foodbar.
This patent applies for protection of a unique Formulation for a line of healthy, organic, natural, good fiber and tasty food bars that include a combination of vegan sources of omega 3 fatty acids, anti-oxidants and anti-aging nutrients through a unique binding SPECIAL FORMULATIONS FOR CHILDREN AND
