Living with Epilepsy is living in fear; fear of the next seizure; not knowing when or where. This was my life before Reliv. I had no expectations as my doctor advised me that once an epileptic, chances of a complete recovery are slim. It took six months of just the product NOW alone for my epileptic seizures to disappear completely. That was 15 years ago and I have not been on any epileptic medication since then. Not a day goes by That I dont think of this miracle in my life and grateful for the gift of health.
Reliv came into my life over 23 years ago when my own health was severely compromised. I was a chronic allergy sufferer for most of my life and had been hospitalized for 6 weeks at one stage because my eczema was so bad. I was rapidly becoming allergic to everything I was touching or using on a regular basis, I was told I had the worst case of food allergies the hospital had ever seen, and had a very restricted diet, then the allergy tuned to chemicals, then the environment, and was told my prognosis was to eventually live in a bubble away from everything I was rapidly becoming allergic to.
The Reliv business was not my original intent. In reality, I was dragged into it by people I met that wanted help with the business. As a result, my business grew in unexpected and distant places following my leaders and today a steady income from 8 countries allows me the luxury of having an apartment in Kuala Lumpur and another in Jakarta where I am inspired to build because of the potential market. It has been nothing short of a continuing International adventure. I have learned two more languqges in the process and have developed a rich and fulfilling lifestyle. I am 67 and have no intentions of slowing down. My daily regimen of Now, Fibrestore and Innergize and recently Lunarich capsules keeps me traveling and willing to go the extra mile to make things happen. I continue to dream of bigger horizons and new marketing ideas to reach a specific target market. I have found a life of passion and meaning.

I had lived on medication for many years , high doses of steroids and I’d lost count of the alternative treatments I’d tried over the years. I was already supplementing my diet, but after three days on the Reliv product I had some energy, that was wonderful as I hadn’t had energy for years. Six months on the product I was medication free, and have been ever since. I’m am now 61 and feel better than I was at 30. For quite a time I didn’t want anything to do with the business I had two other business and those kept me very busy. But because the products are so effective and people noticed me and my families continuing health improvements people wanted the product and the Reliv business was happening without me putting in very much effort. What a wonderful way to earn an income, and as a result of this business I have made lifelong friends all over the world.

I had reached my all-time low. No, not in performance, sales or finances but in poor health! I had nerve pain in my hands, high cholesterol, low bone density and always felt sluggish. In a strange but timely coincidence, my friend Joanne Chan who is a Reliv Distributor, introduced me to the products.
I am a four- month old Reliv member. I have been taking glucosamine for more than a decade, from pharmacy to direct selling company. I purchased and consumed faithfully capsules and tablets but I still suffered from stiffness and sometimes inflammation in my knees.
A few months prior to this, a simple job of picking up a jug of water or opening a jar was what I would call, a “pain in the arms”. “A nerve problem”, said the doctor. I started consuming NOW and Innergize on 18 September 2014. A few days later as I was picking up the jug, I realised that the pain in my arms was gone. It can’t be explained but I believe Reliv gave me the relief! I also take much shorter naps in the afternoon or sometimes none at all. For someone who has been called a sleeping beauty, this is surely a breakthrough! I’m looking forward to the disappearance of all my other health concerns very soon!
One fine day, my daughter, who is a fervent gym goer, (she also suffers minor knee problems) told me a member of her church wanted to introduce Reliv to us. I was quite skeptical initially but after much thought, I decided to give it a try because Arthaffect is cheaper than the remedy I was taking. I was prepared to see the effect not immediately because I know this is not an analgesic medicine. True enough after four months of consuming Reliv Now and Arthaffect, I tested my knees in Cameron Highlands and I marveled at the result - no pain, no swelling, even though I walked uphill and downhill. They are not 100 % as I can still hear a slight cracking sound when I bend my knees but they are getting stronger each day and I believe one day I will be able to do more strenuous exercise.

NUTRITION We sat down with Reliv Vice Chairman and Chief Scientific Officer Dr. Carl Hastings to discuss the nutrition industry and Reliv’s place in it — now and in the years to come.
THE USE OF NUTRITIONAL SUPPLEMENTS IS ON THE RISE. DO YOU SEE THAT TREND CONTINUING?
WHAT MAKES RELIV PRODUCTS A SMART CHOICE FOR CONSUMERS?
No question. Our poor diets today make supplementation more important than ever. We need to transition to food products that are both flavorful and nutritious, especially for our kids. Our food should deliver the key nutrients we need, with supplements there to fill in the gaps.
Two main reasons: innovation and quality.
Just because you’re not sick doesn’t mean you’re healthy. We need to meet and exceed nutritional requirements to attain and maintain optimal health. One big obstacle is a general lack of knowledge within the medical community about supplements. Doctors don’t receive a lot of training in nutrition, versus the constant attention they receive from the drug industry. They usually look to pharmaceuticals first, even for prevention. But the situation is starting to change. More medical professionals are learning the value of nutritional approaches to good health. That’s why it’s so important that our industry remain vigilant in policing the less reputable manufacturers and why Reliv is committed to using only ingredients backed by real science. In my role on the board for the Council for Responsible Nutrition, I get to stay on top of all the latest developments, and I see a very bright future for the industry and for Reliv.

LunaRich® is the perfect example of how we innovate. LunaRich is a Reliv-exclusive ingredient that delivers more bioactive lunasin than any other source available today. Lunasin is the first dietary compound shown to promote optimal health at the epigenetic level. That puts Reliv on the leading edge of nutritional epigenetics, a field you’ll be hearing a lot more about in the coming years. But it’s not just LunaRich. We innovate with every product we produce. Just look at FibRestore®, one of my favorites. We know the many benefits of fiber and that people need more fiber in their diets, so we include both soluble and insoluble fiber. To that we add antioxidants, herbs and enzymes to enhance that fiber’s effectiveness and provide other synergistic benefits. The result is a product unlike anything else on the market. Developing a formula is one thing; putting it together is another. And Reliv’s manufacturing and quality control process sets the industry standard. We strive to create the best possible formulation with every product run — from selecting suppliers to sealing the can. And we test and test and test at every step along the way. For more on Reliv’s manufacturing process, turn to page 10 of this magazine or visit: relivasiapacific.co.my/nutrition-you-can-trust relivasiapacific.co.sg/nutrition-you-can-trust
WHAT CAN RELIV CONSUMERS EXPECT TO SEE IN THE MONTHS AND YEARS AHEAD? It’s an exciting time at Reliv. With the acquisition of LunaRich, Reliv also added the innovation team of SL Technology to our staff, including Dr. Alfredo Galvez. Dr. Galvez is recognized worldwide as a pioneer in nutritional epigenetics. He recently spoke about LunaRich to a packed room at the VitaFoods Conference in Geneva and was the talk of the event. I can’t tell you what an asset it is to have someone of Fred’s caliber on the Reliv team. Soon he’ll be working right up the road from Reliv HQ. We’ve set up a special lab for Fred to continue his research and to train Reliv scientists and quality control staff in the production of LunaRich. This coincides with our launching of a new LunaRich X encapsulation line at Reliv. LunaRich X is now our second highest selling product behind Reliv Now, and we needed to upgrade our manufacturing to meet the growing demand.
TELL US MORE ABOUT WHY YOU’RE SO EXCITED ABOUT LUNARICH.
What can you expect from Reliv? Continued quality, continued innovation, continued university studies and continued work on new ingredients and new formulations. In other words, more of the same that you’ve expected from us for 25 years — just better than ever.
We’ve really just scratched the surface of LunaRich’s potential. Studies already show lunasin’s range of benefits — cholesterol reduction, improved immunity, inflammation reduction, cellular health and so on. And the results people are seeing on LunaRich are even more remarkable. (See sidebar for how you can help advance lunasin research.) The results of the University of Missouri animal study of Reliv Now® and LunaRich X™ (visit relivasiapacific.co.sg/ now-lrx-study for details) were so impressive that we are now conducting preliminary studies and working with universities to set up clinical trials. I am confident that what we learn will further validate the benefits of our epigenetic superfood.
SO WHY AM I EXCITED? I’VE BEEN IN THIS INDUSTRY LONG ENOUGH TO KNOW WHAT A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY WE HAVE WITH
Dr. Galvez Needs Your Help To help Dr. Alfredo Galvez and his lunasin research, we are seeking results consumers have experienced on Reliv’s LunaRich products that can be statistically and factually documented — weight lost, cholesterol levels improved, blood sugar levels improved, etc. If you have documentation of such results that you are willing to share, please contact us at productinfo@relivinc.com. Thank you for your assistance.

LunaRich from Reliv is the world’s first epigenetic superfood.
That means it works at the cellular level to turn GOOD genes ON and BAD genes OFF — and lets you take control of your health like never before. Now you can start your own LunaRich health program easier than ever with the LunaRich Super Pack. The Singapore Super Pack comes with four cans of Reliv Now®, four 120-count bottles of LunaRich X™, two shaker cups, four Reliv Now brochures, four LunaRich X brochures and one bag – 2 shakes and four capsules a day – of Reliv’s Dynamic Duo: • Reliv Now: combines LunaRich with a complete, balanced array of protein, vitamins, minerals, phytonutrients and super-powered antioxidants. •
LunaRich X: delivers the world’s most concentrated form of bioactive lunasin, a naturally occurring soy peptide and the key to LunaRich’s effectiveness.
Think of it this way: Reliv Now is your nutritional fuel; LunaRich X is your epigenetic accelerator. You get optimal health today and smart prevention for tomorrow. The Super Pack leads to better health in two ways,” Chief Scientific Officer Dr. Carl Hastings notes. “First, it contains two cutting-edge products that work together remarkably well to produce real results. Secondly, encourages new consumers to try the products for a longer period of time and incorporate Reliv into their lives. And that’s where optimal nutrition really pays off – as a permanent part of your everyday routine.
Proven Effective A University of Missouri swine study supplemented daily with Reliv Now and LunaRich X for eight weeks showed significant improvement in biomarkers associated with cardiovascular and metabolic health. Circulating free fatty acids, linked to obesity and metabolic syndrome, decreased by 65%. The hormones leptin and adiponectin, which play a key role in weight management, increased by 64% and 60%, respectively. No effective treatments currently exist for improving these biomarkers. “My hypothesis is that the nutrients in Reliv Now work in combination with the bioactive lunasin in LunaRich X to specifically activate and increase the expression of the leptin and adiponectin genes, resulting in lower free fatty acid levels,” says Dr. Alfredo Galvez. “The next step is to validate these results by conducting full-scale human clinical trials, which we are actively pursuing.”
Better Together: 1+1=3 In addition to its own benefits, the lunasin in LunaRich increases the benefits of other bioactive nutrients in two ways: •
Synergism: Lunasin works with other nutrients, each with its own effect on genes and physiological pathways. When you optimize these pathways with different bioactive nutrients, you optimize your health as well.
•
Increased potency: Certain nutrients are activators of important genes involved in maintaining health. Once these genes are activated, lunasin has the ability to further increase their expression by making them more readily recognized by the cell.
“Lunasin’s epigenetic mechanism of action targets specific genes in different cell types, promoting the good genes and diminishing the bad. That explains the multiple benefits it provides – and how it boosts the efficacy of other bioactive nutrients,” explains Dr. Alfredo Galvez, Chief Scientific Advisor at SL Technology, a Reliv subsidiary. “Dietary ingredients in Reliv Now provide optimum nutrition and their own health benefits. The phytonutrient Pycnogenol®, for example, provides extraordinary anti-inflammatory effects. While lunasin works to promote health at the epigenetic level, Pycnogenol and other nutrients found in Reliv Now do the same at the biochemical level. The result is a kind of tag team that delivers more benefits when combined together than the nutrients do individually. It works more like multiplication than addition. “With all the bioactive nutrients in Reliv Now – already formulated to work together synergistically – I think we’re just beginning to learn the potential of this product combination.”

ways to put your best foot forward Quila Buhler is a Reliv Presidential Silver Ambassador from Oregon City, Oregon, and one of Reliv’s top Distributor leaders. Here she shares her tips on making the most out of every day in building your business.

1 > Plan Every Sunday I look at my calendar on
my computer and transfer it to my planner. Every night I look at what is planned for the next day. I prioritize what needs to get done and focus on the things that absolutely must be accomplished. Everyone has the same amount of time in a day — it’s amazing how some people can get ten times the amount of things accomplished. That’s because every moment of time is accounted for. “It’s not what we do once in a while that shapes our lives; it’s what we do consistently.” – Anthony Robbins
2 > Recognize Your Progress
We tend to want to live our dream lifestyle before we’ve earned it. Work hard, build your business and then you can own your own beach. But until that point… work! I have a whiteboard in my office that I look at every day, throughout the day. It shows me the number of new Master Affiliates (MAs) in my organization, how many people I have personally sponsored, how many new MAs I’ve sponsored and who on my front line has re-qualified for the year to maintain my 10-star status. Each month the goal is to have at least one person in my group earn a Top 10 Bonus, a Rookie Bonus, a Dr. Ted Plaque and move up new Director levels — including earning their way to the next Senior Director Workshop. When you are aware what is going on in your organization and in your personal group, you know where to spend your time. You set the pace for what happens in your business, and your organization will follow your lead.
WANT SUCCESS? GET STARTED! Reliv’s new Business Success Training program makes building your business as simple as counting to five. Just visit reliv. com/getstarted to access videos, new training slides and our top tools to ignite action in your organization.
3 > Mantra Choose a phrase to make visible
in some key places in your home and workspace. Find something that motivates you and keeps you focused on your long-term goals. “If my life depended upon Reliv, would I do things differently?” This is on my whiteboard in my office and I see it every day. This simple phrase helps keep me focused. I also read good books. Currently it’s No Excuses – The Power of Self Discipline by Brian Tracy.
4 > Smile Never underestimate the power of a genuine smile. It will make people feel more comfortable with you and give them a chance to open up and tell you their story. Be aware of the expression on your face. Smiling is much easier if you’re ready to go to work — so get up, get moving and get Reliv nutrition in your body. It’s amazing how you project over the phone when you are dressed and ready to start the day!
There is no secret to Reliv success. It all comes down to one thing: starting new people on the products and in the business. The new training materials walk you through five simple, fundamental steps to do exactly that. The program was developed by Reliv Distributors for Reliv Distributors — by our leaders of today for our leaders of tomorrow. You’ll learn proven strategies to achieve success and how you can start enjoying the Reliv lifestyle today. The training home page includes links to additional content for all five fundamental steps. Just click on each step to discover proven ways to build your organization:

Each step includes a video of Hall of Famer Mindy Jones explaining strategies that have worked for her. Below each video are links to Reliv’s best business-building tools.
5 > Connect This is a home business; how-
ever, you need to reach out to others with similar goals and those who have achieved success in your field. Network! Ask them what works and what doesn’t. Work with your support group and be accountable. Have personal integrity! Don’t let working from home make you feel isolated — leverage your contact list and learn from the achievements of others that have set the example for you to follow.
So don’t wait to train yourself and your organization on how to bring new people into Reliv. Get started today! relivasiapacific.com.my/get-started relivasiapacific.com.sg/get-started 15
seeing is Lighting the Way to Change by Senior Vice President and COO Brett Hastings, RKF board member
It had been three years since my first Reliv Kalogris Foundation (RKF) trip to Haiti, a trip I will never forget. While I had not forgotten that experience in my heart and head, from a sensory standpoint, my memory of what it is like to physically visit an RKF program had faded. Then I visited our programs in the Philippines. The stench of rotting garbage and stale water, the blanket of searing heat and near-100% humidity and the landscape of makeshift living quarters and communities of indescribable poverty and squalor are, in isolation, painful and disturbing. But those sensory elements are dwarfed by the light and vibrancy of the RKF programs: • The sparkling eyes, beaming smiles, excited laughter, radiant skin and affectionate displays of appreciation and respect from all our RKF kids. • The shining heart of our volunteers and their commitment to work tirelessly every day to provide life-changing nutrition and support. •
The Foundation’s buildings rising amidst the shanties and rubbish — bright, beautiful monuments to the hope and change possible through the generosity of Reliv Distributors.
• The glistening reflection of the sun on the watery trail of a mother’s thankful tear as her child drinks a life- saving Reliv shake. The sensory experience adds an indescribable context, depth and palpability to the lustrous light and impact of the Foundation’s programs. I was honored and humbled once again to bask in their glow.

believing Old Friends, New Faces by Senior Vice President and CFO Steve Albright, RKF board member
This trip to the Philippines included my third visit to the RKF home in Cavite. I always feel a sense of pride when I go the Cavite house, our first major project for the Foundation. Sister Beth Perez and her team have done a wonderful job of making the house a place of safety, comfort and well-being for the local children over all of these years. You can see that in the happy, healthy smiles on all their faces! We also visited the newest RKF facility in Welfareville. Welfareville is a neighborhood of metro Manila with block after block of pieced-together shanties — right in the shadow of the city’s high-rise buildings and gleaming office towers. Pastor George and Blessie Padilla are the driving forces behind the RKF’s efforts in this area, and this was the first time I had spent time with these dedicated souls. Children wearing hats made from Reliv Now® for Kids labels greeted our arrival — what a beautiful sight! Kids took our hands and placed them to their foreheads — a sign of respect in the Philippines. We served the children their afternoon shake. For many, these shakes represent the only decent food they will see all day. Yet they all waited patiently for their cup, making sure the littlest children got theirs first. If we mistakenly offered one of them another shake, they politely declined. Their gratitude was humbling. Our stories, photos and videos provide a window into the vital work of the RKF. But there is nothing like being there in person to see the bright, sunny faces of the children your generosity helps every day. On their behalf, I thank you. Together we can BE THE CHANGE!

WEALTH STORI Jessi Ann & Earl Colegado, Quezon City
Dolly & Nitz Lilles, Bacolod City
We have started building a financial foundation for our family
We have become the best version of ourselves
Jessi Ann and Earl of Quezon City became Reliv Distributors in December 2011, but it was only after two years, when they were expecting a second baby, that they started building their networking business. “We were looking for an extra income source in anticipation of the growing family expenses. I started searching online for opportunities to work from home until our upline got in touch with us and suggested that we take advantage of the highest profit level in Reliv,” recalls Jessi Ann. After signing up as Master Affiliates, the couple eagerly mapped out their sponsoring plan and prospecting strategy. They also began sharing Reliv with a great resolve that they would make the business work. “We have been unstoppable and passionate about introducing Reliv to our circle of influence since we became Master Affiliates! Consistent product intake led the whole family to improved health and we can’t help but share this result with everyone. We conduct one-on-one and small group presentations. We bring new people to Reliv events. We also post success stories and product info on Facebook. We make every day a great opportunity to tell the world about Reliv!” says Jessi Ann. In less than a year, the hard work has paid off. “Reliv has provided us an additional steady income and placed us among the company’s top check earners. We also received a $500 bonus for advancing to the Key Director level last July. We know we can surpass our latest achievement and earn a lot more if we just continue building our Reliv business. Now, more than ever, we commit to making people understand the need for having Reliv as their partner in optimal health and wellness. Every new sign-up is another opportunity for us to grow and succeed in this rewarding business!” Jessi Ann concludes.

Dolly & Nitz Lilles were content in their respective careers until they joined Reliv in 2011 and saw the opportunity to enhance skills and build self-belief. “Three years ago, we were the shy ones in the room and could not bring ourselves to talk in front of many people. After we signed up as Distributors, we started attending the Reliv meetings and gradually found our way to mingling with more people and making friends,” Dolly shares. “We are so thankful to Reliv Bacolod leaders for patiently teaching us how to communicate and build rapport with our downlines, customers and prospects. Without their guidance and our willingness to learn, we would not be able to succeed in this story-sharing business.” This loving couple from Bacolod City always dreamed of having an extra income to afford life’s little luxuries including fine dining experiences and family vacations. With their steady additional earnings from retail, wholesale, overrides and cash bonuses, they not only enjoy regular lifestyle perks, but they are also able to share their blessings with the needy. The best part of it all, Dolly and Nitz have become agents of hope for those who want to change their lives for the better. “We are very proud to tell the world about Reliv every day because we know in our own little ways, we are making a huge difference in the lives of so many people – health or income-wise. And for this life-fulfilling opportunity, we will always be grateful to Reliv!”

H IES Maria van Olphen, Cebu City
Ella Amor Palen, Tagum City
I have earned a lucrative income source online
Motherhood has become more fun, fruitful and rewarding
Maria van Olphen’s additional Reliv revenue stream on Facebook has strengthened her wall of belief in the products, as well as the company’s highly rewarding business opportunity. “Prospecting on the top social networking site has helped increase not just my PGPV for maintenance, but also my income. 25% of my monthly sales volume comes from local sales, 4% from people outside Cebu, 6% from international sales and 65% from online sales. My overall Reliv income increased by 75% and the percentage keeps growing because of my online efforts,” Marivi says. Our seasoned Distributor from Cebu City is thankful for having an efficient online platform to share Reliv with more people, including cold market prospects. “One of my recent posts about Now for Kids has reached a mother of a 17-year-old girl with Down Syndrome. She inquired about the product, became a Preferred Customer and placed an order right away. A resident of Manila, this mother-prospect decided to attend the Reliv Opportunity event in Ascott Hotel Makati and heard more about Reliv products, as well as powerful health stories. She is now thinking about signing up as a Distributor because she wants to help people improve their health and income. This just proved that online prospecting really works and reaps rewards. I can’t wait for more!”
Ella Amor Palen started taking Reliv products during the early phase of her second pregnancy in 2005. She found that her second one was easier to handle compared to her first. “Reliv products provided the complete nutrition that I needed to get through my second pregnancy with a lot more ease. I also had a shorter labor and quicker recovery,” shares Ella. With consistent product intake, this mom of three has also enjoyed increased energy to breeze through her daily household chores, as well as tons of motherly tasks -- from preparing the kids for school and assisting them with their homework, to attending various school events and activities. Reliv has definitely helped Ella be in the best shape possible to take care of her loved ones. “The longer I’m on these products, the more results I continue to see,” she admits. “With two shakes a day, I feel great and have kept my health issues at bay. Reliv also allows me to be with my children especially during important occasions and milestones. I can be the supermom that I have always wanted to be because of Reliv!” Ella concludes.
