Fundamentally the story is about the journey of two men,

 Karl Jurak and J. F. Robert Bolduc.

Karl Jurak grew up in Austria and enjoyed mountain climbing with his friends as a young man. One day while climbing, he experienced an unexplained loss of energy. Clinging to the edge, he faltered and fought for every breath. Unable to lift himself to safety, Karl had to wait for assistance to get out of danger. From that moment, Karl knew he had to improve his physical conditioning and set out to develop a preparation with the help of natural botanicals.

 In 1922, through diligent research and testing, Karl developed a special botanical preparation which he believed was a perfect natural catalyst that could improve his energy and stamina tremendously. Karl began to share his preparation, now called Km®, freely with friends and family. He did so for the next 60 years on his own, always inspired by his personal philosophy of "Be a friend indeed to a friend in need.".

 In 1982, the preparation was offered to Robert, who Karl often referred to as his spiritual son and best friend. After using the Km® preparation for two years, and witnessing the benefits first hand, Robert had the initial vision to bring it to mankind in an organized fashion.

 In 1984, on October 22, which was also his own birthday, Robert co-founded and created an organization called Matol Botanical International Ltd. Robert's vision was to create a company that would celebrate and feature the Km® preparation and use the same philosophy which had inspired Karl and now could be simplified as Give & Receive.

ONE MAN with a Product, ONE MAN with a Vision became TWO MEN with a Mission which was to IMPACT WORLD HEALTH. Our Give and Receive logo exemplifies the Matol story which ties into your own contribution.

 Just as Karl and Robert shared their stories one person at a time, one day at a time, now you can do the same.

The Matol products are not sold in stores with a slick Madison Avenue ad campaign. The Matol products are sold exclusively through a network of Independent Distributors who share the products with others and tell our story.

Karl's story. Robert's story. Your story.

 Since 1922, the results speak for themselves. "Knowledgeable scientists could devote a life's pursuit to unraveling the mystery locked in this unique, molecular combination and come up empty-handed... I feel privileged to have been inspired to create this formula." Karl Jurak (1904-1993)

"Matol is not my livelihood. It is not what I do. It is my lifetime pursuit and it is what I am." J.F. Robert Bolduc
