The Man Behind Prime 1

"It has always been my dream to create a special formula to prepare people for life to make them healthy, stable, happy and to protect them from stress"

--Dr. I.I. Brekhman

Dr. Israel Brekhman, Professor and Doctor of Medical Sciences, was an internationally renowned and respected research scientist. A pioneer in the field of organic medicine and biologically active substances, his entire career was devoted to unlocking the secrets of nature and improving health and well-being. Dr. Brekhman was the recognized world authority on adaptogens.

Forty-five years ago, at the onset of his brilliant career, Dr Brekhman began a quest: To discover what nutritional substances would be of the greatest help in resisting the stresses of life and time; in combating fatigue; in enhancing recuperation and personal performance; and in increasing the stamina, energy and vitality of the human body.

In order to unlock the secrets of nature, Dr. Brekhman realized that he must go where nature was at its most pristine and untouched. He left his home in St. Petersburg and traveled across eleven time zones to the Far East of Russia, known as the Primorye. It was here that, for forty years, Dr. Brekhman applied for the first time in history, the disciplines of world-class scientific methodology to the study of age-old plants. Through his extensive research he analyzed the molecular structure of plants, isolating the complex substrates which held the secret of special benefits to man.

Dr. Brekhman demonstrated some of these special benefits in one of the most massive, sustained, and spectacularly successful programs of human testing in recorded scientific history. Tens, hundreds, then thousands of people - men, women and children of all ages participated in these studies - the populations of schools, hospitals, factories, even an entire town.

Dr. Brekhman was called upon to apply his special skills for the Russian space program. He developed dietary formulas for the cosmonauts using extracts of plant materials he had studied for years. These supplements restored the natural balance of the body systems and protected the cosmonauts against the stresses of motion, vertigo, weightlessness, enforced inactivity and all of the stresses inherent in orbiting space flights. So dramatic were the results, that all the cosmonauts were put on Dr. Brekhman's program, as were Russia's elite Olympic athletes.

For his discoveries and work in developing natural plant substances, Dr. Brekhman held nearly 40 patents , including 21 international patents. He published twenty-two monographs and hundreds of scientific articles and books all over the world. Several books and journals on adaptogens, published in the United States, Japan and Sweden are dedicated to Dr. Brekhman and his landmark work. In honor of his scientific achievements and outstanding contributions, Dr. Brekhman received the Order of Lenin, the highest possible award in the former Soviet Union.

Dr. Brekhman formed an exclusive relationship with PrimeQuest International so that his lifetime of research could benefit the entire world.
