Get Smart! Businessman works to Control fat HE CALLS himself Max- well Smart, special agent 86. By Surj Rattan News Reporter He even has @ secret agent shoe phone. And, just like the Maxwell Smart character in the television series Get Smart, this Smart even works for Control. In fact, he owns it. But unlike his TV counterpart, Smart is not in the business of busting those evil KAOS agents. He’s in the business of busting fat and keeping you healthy. Smart is the owner of North Vancouver-based Control Interna- tional which is in the business of selling 4 variety of health-related products. He bills himself as an ‘tauthen- tic business and fitness consul- tant’’ and says his products are ail doctor-recommended. They in- clude natural body-building and toning ptoducts as well as water purifiers and Akoa skin products. Smart says that by using the products his company sells, people can either gain five to 15 pounds in 30 days cr lose 10 to 29 pounds in a month without serious dieting. “We are creating history in weight management,’’ says Smart. He sells Herbalife products and says Herbalife is a scieutifically formulated, calorie-reduced nutri- tion program. . Smart says the different Her- balife products supply all the balanced nutrition the body needs on a daily basis. The program, he adds, is based entirely on nutrition and herbs and does not use drugs, medications or hormones. Another health product he selis is the Aloe vera drink which Smart says will take all the bitters out of any drink. “It's a very nice bar mix. You take something out and put nutri- tion back in,’’ says Smart. So if he’s selling health-related products, why the whole Get Smart, Coatro! and shoe phcne hype? Where does that come into play? Smari says the public should gez smart about living a healthy lifestyle and learn how to control their weight. And the shoe phone, which by the way, is listed in the telephone book as 980-9426? “‘Fhe shoe phone is like the boot to the other companies. We're looking for people from other countries to come in and boost the business,’’ says Smart. The other businesses he refers to include hiring ‘‘bikini models’’ to sell women’s clothing. ‘*We’re also trying to get cata- logue items for women. We do a full-sized poster and_ testimonial of the girl and how she got to look the way she Icoks,’’ says Smart. ‘'They can build their own business up in a year and start selling off the rack’’. And who runs this portion of his company? Why, secret agent 99 of course, otherwise known as vice-president Mandy. She doesn’t have a secret agent shoe phore, but can be reached at 980-9626.
