Larry Taylor
Calgary Wide Receiver/Kick Returner
Standing only 5-foot-6 and weighing in at a slight 177 pounds, Larry Taylor scoffs at size being a measure of what he can accomplish on the professional football field. Instead, the crafty speedster has been a featured returner for three teams in two pro leagues. Larry was finally given his due in 2009 when he was named an all-star and outstanding special teams player, returning 89 punts for 799 yards and 51 kickoffs for an astonishing 1,059 yards.
His record-breaking return career began at the University of Connecticut, where he still holds the Big East Conference record with 1,228 punt return yards.
Larry concentrates on what he can control, focusing on film study, conditioning, and nutrition to keep him at his best. He enjoys the benefits of both GoChi® and Chi3 Energy™ to stay sharp.
“I added GoChi to my daily regimen during the beginning of the 2011 season. I was struck by how good my body felt overall. I continue to feel fresh throughout practice and am able to sleep significantly better at night. I love the fresh berry taste and could drink it like water – if only the recommended dosage permitted. And, if I really need to charge up, I reach in my backpack for Chi3 Energy. It is especially good during practice or on the sidelines during a game. There is no question that it is, far and away, the best energy drink on the market.”
Steve Smith
Professional Football Wide Receiver
Carolina
Even the most casual professional football fan knows the name Steve Smith, who was drafted by Carolina in 2001. Smiths incomparable playmaking ability was recognized early in his professional career and he is still widely considered among the most dominant receivers in the game. His incredible athleticism and tenacity have kept opposing defenses off balance for nearly a decade.
He has been named to pro footballs first all-star team twice and has earned a spot in its all-star game four times. He has totaled 8,330 yards (or almost 5 miles) in receiving going into the 2010 season.
Smith attributes FreeLife products with helping him play younger than his age.
"As a rookie, my body was fueled by youth and adrenaline alone. Now, as a veteran and team leader, it is important to stay focused on what I put into my body so I can continue to play at a top level. As an athlete, you are exposed to a variety of nutritional supplements, but FreeLife really caught my attention when I was introduced to it just over a year ago. With REVERSE! to help turn back the clock, and Acti-Flex to soothe my joints and muscles and speed recovery time, my body feels as it did far earlier in my career. That is bad news for defensive players hoping that I would start slowing down. I have also been thoroughly enjoying the Organic Essentials line. My family loves that our favorite products are delivered right to our door. Now, Im looking just as healthy as I feel."
Robert MeachemProfessional Football
New Orleans Wide Receiver
"GoChi tastes great and the results are rapid and very beneficial to my body. After a long, hard day of training I am able to rest better at night. I also have more energy and my recovery period during my workouts is much shorter than before. I will continue to take GoChi during my off-season and mid-season programs to keep me feeling great."
Wide Receiver Robert Meachem was selected as the 27th pick in the 2007 draft by the New Orleans professional football team.
A graduate of Booker T. Washington High School, in Tulsa, Oklahoma, Meachem was named a high school All-American by Parade and SuperPrep reporting services. Meachem went on to attend the University of Tennessee in the South Eastern Conference (SEC), where he garnered rave reviews, and had what was considered his breakout year in 2006, earning an all SEC, consensus All-American selection.
In 2007, Meachem decided to skip his senior season and enter the pro football draft.
Eric Wright
Professional Football
Cleveland Cornerback
Eric Wright was drafted by Cleveland in the second round of the 2007 Draft and is considered to be one of the most promising young cornerbacks in the league. He has been a starter at left corner for most of his first two seasons and both team officials and fans continue their very high expectations of Eric, based upon his unique blend of natural instincts, quickness, and ball skills. Eric Wright began his collegiate career at USC before transferring to UNLV, where he played just one more season.
He decided to enter the 2007 draft as a junior, and since that time, Eric has garnered some impressive statistics, including four interceptions to his credit during what looks to be the beginning of a remarkable professional career.
"Being an NFL player is extremely demanding both mentally and physically. Since drinking GoChi each morning, my body has never felt better. I feel energized and recover a lot fastermy body feels fresh and alert each day."
DeDe Dorsey
Professional Football - Running Back
Cincinnati (2007-2009)
Detroit (2010-Present)
DeDe Dorsey is a battle-tested running back hoping to earn a permanent spot on the roster of his new team in Detroit. He signed with Detroit in February 2010 after being named the MVP of the first United Football League championship game. In that game, DeDe rushed 11 times for 66 yards and two touchdowns to help Las Vegas defeat previously unbeaten Florida 20-17 in overtime. Dorsey has played four years of professional football and was a member of the 2007 World Championship Indianapolis team making his first and only Super Bowl appearance. He also played two seasons for Cincinnati. DeDe was born in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, and played college football at Lindenwood, where he was a two-time NAIA All-America.
"Since starting my daily regimen of GoChi, I have seen an increase in my energy, performance, and overall health. I would recommend this product to anyone that strives to live a healthy, active lifestyle.
On days that I know are going to be a grind, I always make sure to drink Chi3 Energy. It is definitely the boost that gets me through those tough days."
Ra Shon Harris
Professional Football
Pittsburgh - Defensive Lineman
"When I saw one of our most upbeat and energetic guys drinking from an usual-looking bottle, I was eager to find out what it was. He poured me a cup and I immediately fell in love with GoChi. Since I started drinking GoChi, I have seen a big difference in my energy levels. Plus, I feel healthier than I ever have. And, Chi3 Energy has given me a HUGE lift in my offseason workouts and minicamps. I will keep drinking both these products throughout training camp and the season as well!"
A defensive lineman for Pittsburgh, Sunny is entering his second year after a rookie season. He was drafted on talent alone in the sixth round from the University of Oregon by a Pittsburgh team that already had excellent players at his position. Despite a great training camp, he was released by Pittsburgh and signed by Carolina to its active roster the week of the season opener. After playing two games for Carolina, Harris was released and then immediately resigned by Pittsburgh. It was in the Steel City where he spent the remainder of the season. In 2010, Pittsburgh is looking for Harris to have a bigger impact on its interior defensive line.
During Rashons senior year in high school, he was rated among the top 50 prep prospects in California by SuperPrep magazine and among the best defensive lineman overall.

I have been drinking GoChi for a couple months now and I am noticing a big difference in my energy level throughout the day. My rest throughout the night has improved a lot and I feel revived and refreshed in the mornings as well. I was surprised how great this juice tastes. I drink it every day.

Cory Boyd
Professional Football

Cory Boyd, in his rookie season with Denver, is an explosive back with tremendous running and receiving skills. Boyd had spent some of his first season on the injured reserve, but battled back to regain top form as his team heads into the playoffs. He played his college years at South Carolina, where he was an all-conference pick his senior season. Cory left behind an indelible mark at SC, ranking in the top ten in several offensive categories. He remains one of only two players to reach over 1,000 yards in both rushing and receiving throughout the Universitys storied history. His hometown is Orange, NJ.
"After drinking GoChi for some time, I noticed I was sleeping far better than I had in years. I also realized that during the day, I wasnt nearly as stiff during my workouts. Whats better I love the taste and really feel that it keeps my body refreshed throughout the day. I liked GoChi so much, I couldnt wait to try Chi3 Energy and Ive got to say, it did not disappoint me! Its by far the best energy drink available on the market. It gives me that spark I need to compete consistently without that after practice crash.'"
CJ Jones

Basketball Endorsers
Ebony Hoffman
Women's Pro Basketball Player - Indiana
Widely regarded as the Indiana womens professional basketball teams most charismatic and animated personality, Ebony Hoffman's game on the court is equally impressive. She surpassed the 1,000-point mark in her pro career during the 2009 season and enters her seventh season only 29 rebounds shy of the 1,000 plateau.
Ebony was named the league's Most Improved Player in 2008 after posting career numbers in scoring, rebounds, 3-point field goals, assists, and steals. She has been ranked among the league leaders in rebounds during each of her six pro seasons.
The dynamic Hoffman enters the 2010 season ranked third in franchise minutes (4,287); third in games started (123); second in total rebounds (971); and third in points scored (1,222). And, she is only 19 points from becoming the clubs second-leading all-time scorer.
Ebony relies on FreeLife products, whether she is competing on the court or training in the off-season.
"I really love GoChi. My career as a professional basketball player has allowed me to see the world, but one of the drawbacks, from a nutritional standpoint, is that I find myself eating a variety of foods while visiting different countries. GoChi is a fundamental part of my diet that keeps me well-balanced. TAIslim provides another important piece to my off-season training. When the season ends, athletes tend to splurge on things we deny ourselves while competing. TAIslim has helped me meet and maintain my fitness goals during the off-season."
Mario Butler
Professional Basketball Alumni, Puerto Rican League
Though Mario Butler is my given name, most know me from my playing days as The Panamanian Express. During my basketball career, I always tried to get better every single day and as an athlete, that meant taking great care of my body. Physical fitness has given me so much throughout life. Back in the day, I was always searching for something to give me a competitive edge, be it strength, concentration, or stamina. I suppose some habits stay with you, as I continue to search for nutritious ways to keep me at my best. After drinking my very first bottle of GoChi, I already noticed I had begun to feel stronger with a lot of extra energy in the morning. Although I have already retired from basketball, with the additional boost I have received from GoChi, I definitely feel I could play another year. GoChi is just great!

Mia St. John
WBC International Boxing Champion
In 1996, Mia decided to pursue her true passion full-time, the sport of combat. Valentine's Day, 1997, Mia made her pro-debut in boxing, knocking out her opponent in fifty-four seconds into the first round. Mia signed with Don King and stayed with him for a year and a half before she dropped King for his rival Bob Arum of Top Rank. At Top Rank, Mia spent four years opening for all of Oscar De La Hoya's major fights.
As well as being a hard-hitting boxer, Mia is media savvy. She has made appearances on such shows as, Jay Leno, Conan O'Brien, "Good Morning America," "Entertainment Tonight," "Extra," "The Best Damn Sports Show," "E," and countless others. She has also acted in commercials and played herself on the t. v. show "Pacific Blue." Mia also has her own Playstation game by EA sports.
Currently her own exercise DVD "Million Dollar Workout" is in stores now nationwide in both English and Spanish. She is also hosting for networks such as, Fox Sports Net, ESPN and color commentating many of the Pay Per View fights. Mia is an author as well and in April of '09 her fitness book, "The Knock-Out Body Plan" will be in stores.
On June 14th, 2008, Mia fulfilled her dream of fighting in her mother's home country of Mexico. She fought one of the toughest fights of her career and became the WBC International Boxing Champion of the World at the age of 40. She continues to fight in Mexico not only in boxing, but with her charity work. In November of '08 she was awarded by the Governor of Zacatecas, Mexico an outstanding achievement award for her role in sports and humanitarianism.
"I drink GoChi every morning! Not only does it taste amazing, but my workouts have been going longer and with higher intensity. I’m getting ready for my next professional fight and GoChi plays an important role in my daily regimen."
"A friend of mine convinced me to try Chi3 Energy, just as I began training for a fight in Zacatecas, Mexico. I discovered Chi3 Energy was far healthier than any of the others energy drinks I had seen before. Though I was resistant at first, I decided to give it a try. I found that Chi3 Energy allowed me to work out for longer intervals at a much higher intensity without all the caffeine and sugar its competition relies on. Moreover, I no longer had to experience that sugar or caffeine ‘crash’ at the end of the day. Unbelievably, I also discovered that I continue to eat less, despite the fact that Chi3 is only 16 calories per serving! Best of all, Chi3 Energy tastes great and never gives me the jitters."
Mia retired from boxing in April 2010 to pursue other dreams and ambitions. But, she emphasizes FreeLife products will remain a vital part of her daily regime. And, she will continue to recommend them to her clients and peers. Retirement does not mean sitting in the shade with lemonade for Mia, rather she approaches life with the same tenacity as her past boxing opponents. She is preparing for the release of her new set of fitness DVDs, while her book The Knockout Workout is available online and in bookstores. When she is not training clients, Mia focuses on education by giving talks at juvenile halls, probation centers, schools and camps, focusing on the importance of maintaining both physical and mental health.

Tina Koenig
U.S Short Track Speedskating Team
"As a professional speedskater, I train 8 to 10 hours every day. I've also had trouble sleeping for a while now, which makes it hard to have enough energy every day to get through my workouts. Since I have been drinking GoChi, I have been sleeping better at night, which has helped me to feel more rested and energized during the day. Out of the many things I have tried in the past to help with my sleep, nothing has worked quite like GoChi. I take it to all my competitionsI don't go anywhere without my GoChi!"
