Noted immunologist Dr. Robert Keller, who researched cures for AIDS/HIV, Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases, passed away this past Friday, June 5, 2009 in his hometown in the state of Florida, USA.
All of us at the company, his three daughters, his son, his four grandchildren and the thousands of people he helped all mourn his passing
Dr. Keller got a rare and extremely deadly type of Amyloidosis, possibly on a trip to Africa. Most people who contract that specific type die very soon after. The fact that he lived an entire year after contracting Amyloidosis greatly surprised the physicians at the Mayo Clinic. That is a testament to the health promoting and health protecting qualities of having elevated glutathione levels.
He fell so deeply ill when he got this deadly disease that he literally almost died then. Dr. Robert H. Keller, himself, repeatedly credited his survival after that to his elevated levels of glutathione from taking the MaxGXL.
Unfortunately because of this he was not able to attend the annual Max International convention in September 2008. His absence was felt by everyone there. Up until his last day on earth, he worked tirelessly to utilize his unique formulating talents and mastery of the human immune system to push the boundaries of wellness enhancement and develop treatments for serious illnesses.
Dr. Keller devoted the last 40 years of his life to research and study of the immune system, as well as the direct treatment of thousands of individuals with immunologic dysfunctions.
Dr. Keller had been working for more than a decade in the development of a platform to treat various immune and inflammatory based diseases. He was diligently preparing to initiate a clinical trial in Tanzania, Africa of his lead compound for the treatment of HIV/AIDS at the time of his untimely passing. He had also begun work to expand this drug platform to include treatment modalities for neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson's disease. The Company will seek to continue his work and legacy, and is considering several options through which this might best be accomplished.
At the time of Dr. Robert Keller's death he had been working on a special project. The end product of this along with the contributions of others will be announced in about 6-8 weeks!
Dr. Keller was and forever will be remembered as the man whose dedicated work improved the health of thousands (and one day millions) of people, thus changing their lives forever!
However, for those of us who saw the vision of Dr. Keller and Steven K. Scott, the sharing of MaxGXL now takes on a whole new meaning! As Dr. Keller said, "MaxGXL belongs in every medicine cabinet!"
Dr. Keller never set out to create MaxGXL for the sake of it. Dr. Keller was looking for a way to help his sickest of patients.


I never will forget his voice on training calls and video. I can still hear him say, "The fact of the matter is..."


Goodbye Dr. Keller!
The fact of the matter is.... We will miss you!
