AVANI Oxygen Water Corporation, of Vancouver, Canada, was formed for the purpose of propagating the Company's technology of producing supercharged oxygenated water that is remarkably smooth, incredible taste and extremely pure. AVANI's exclusive seven stages oxygen PURIFICATION PROCESS is the ONLY process currently that duplicates the natural cycle of rain water purification. The ONLY extra ingredient added is the vital OXYGEN! AVANI's water is richer in oxygen content than ordinary tap water of Vancouver, Canada, which is already rich in oxygen content. AVANI's technology re-energizes water like it was millions of years ago, when the oxygen content in the atmosphere and in the water was extremely high. The incredibly lush growth of the plants and the enormous size of the animals on our planet at that time attested to the very high life force of the oxygen rich water. Paleontologists (people who study dinosaurs) have estimated that a big dinosaur would only live a few days in our atmosphere before it would die of oxygen starvation. This is true because our present atmosphere and water now contains low levels of oxygen. There was also no pollution to contaminate the water. AVANI's supercharged oxygenated water, with its high content of dissolved oxygen, is the closest thing there is to water of prehistoric time: a water that had a very high content of life giving oxygen.

As part of a class project, he came up with BAWLS – a premium, carbonated, non-alcoholic beverage made with Guarana. Named for the caffeinated 'Bounce' it gives you, BAWLS gets its flavor and kick from the Amazonian Guarana berry, which contains a natural form of caffeine nearly three times stronger than that found in traditional sodas. Using the untapped potential of Guarana in the United States as a source for caffeine in soft drinks, BAWLS Guarana took off with surprising strength on November 14, 1996 in Miami, FL.
