The Pig Pack

The Pig Pack is an all-natural, common sense method of supporting the body in its effort to achieve optimal musculo-skeletal health. Each component of Dr. Wallach's revolutionary formula plays a special role in rebuilding and strengthening bone and cartilage and in regenerating the soft tissues in our joints (e.g. tendons, ligaments, muscle). The Ultimate GlucoGel, for example, supplies the three nutrients, glucosamine sulfate, chondroitin sulfate and collagen used in the formation of cartilage and bone matrix (soft part of the bone). The Majestic Earth Minerals make their contribution by binding, by locking in to this gelatinous material to form hardened bone. And, finally, the Majestic Earth Ultimate Classic speeds the process by delivering vitamins and amino acids to act as co-factors and catalysts. In this way the Pig Pack (PP) does its job, essentially, by replenishing the very nutrients our bones lose as we age. Dr. Wallach includes the calcium enriched orange juice both to mask the rather bitter taste of the ME Minerals, and to provide more of the all important bone mineral, calcium. An even better source of calcium and one designed by Dr. Wallach to complement the Pig Pack, is Dr. Wallach's ME OsteoFx included in his Pig Pack Plus.

Although the Pig Pack is only one of several Specialty Health Packs Dr. Wallach offers, we list it here, in a category of its own, due to the close association it has enjoyed, over the years with Dr. Wallach, himself, and with Dr. Wallach's famous, "Dead Doctors Don't Lie" audio tape. Many, following Dr. Wallach's advice on the audio tape, who find their way to optimal sustainable health through supplementation, do so using the Pig Pack as their point of entry. Formulated as a natural and safe alternative to the drugs and surgeries that are typically prescribed for various musculo-skeletal complaints (NSAIDS, steroids, joint replacement, etc.), the Pig Pack can also serve to establish a "baseline" of essential nutrient intake. After all, it contains 87 of the 90 nutrients essential to human health and in a form the body can easily recognize and use. For those in a state of skeletal decline the Pig Pack is a wonderful ally and a great place to start.

The concept behind the Pig Pack is a fairly simple and straightforward one: give your body the raw material it needs to rebuild, regenerate and repair bone and cartilage and it will do just that. In trying to imagine how this happens it is useful to think of yourself as a stone mason, building a wall. You take in a little mortar in the form of the GlucoGel, wash it down with a glass of orange juice and then add the stones in the form of the Majestic Earth Minerals and the Majestic Earth Ultimate Classic. Instead of building a stout wall, though, you are shoring up your entire musculo-skeletal system, giving your bones the chance they need to regain and reclaim tensile strength.

To maximize the effectiveness of the Pig Pack it is important to avoid mineral leaching foods such as sugar, phosphoric acid (Coke, Pepsi, 7UP, etc.) and caffeine.

How to Use the Pig Pack

Mix 5 oz. of Calcium enriched Minute Maid orange juice diluted with a generous amount of water and 2 oz. of Majestic Earth Minerals (or 1 oz. ME Mineral, 1 oz. ME Ultimate Classic). Drink this mixture down with 4 capsules of Ultimate Glucogel. For best results do the above twice daily.
