Dear Wellness Seekers,
February 2015
February is heart health month! It is also Valentine’s month and I would like to wish a Happy Valentine’s to all our Member sweethearts! We believe our expanded membership benefits in 2015 will also add to your happiness! Be sure to ask about our new Premier Membership program where you can receive 4% in VitaPoint awards for every purchase you make. You can also receive a referral reward of 20% in VitaPoints on all your referrals’ purchases to use anytime toward future product purchases. There are no added costs to this opt-in program—only added benefits! This month we are focusing on heart health—one of the most important aspects of your health. Medical research has shown heart disease may be reversible with proper lifestyle choices. Diet, exercise and exposure to toxins have a huge impact on the health of your heart. Don’t simply settle for medicating a condition, but make the right choices to enhance your heart health. Think of all this amazing organ does for you: it must pump blood into 60,000 miles of blood vessels. This blood must go to the lungs for oxygen, the digestive system for nutrients, pick up the immune system cells, pick up the body’s waste materials, and so on. You get the point I am making—the heart is more than just an organ whose beat determines life and death; it is about quality of life while we are living. Heart health is worth all the attention you can give it. If you are on statin drugs, we highly encourage you to be taking CoQ-10. It is energy for the cells and for heart cell energy! You will find more about our CoQ-10 on page 8. To encourage the introduction of CoQ-10 to new users, we are offering it to everyone at 50% off for the month of February. We believe the benefits of CoQ-10 are overlooked by many people and we want to encourage our Members to try it. May you experience greater wellness and live well!

NOPALEA™ is a delicious, nutrient-rich drink from the Sonoran Desert that supports the normal and essential anti-inflammatory function performed by the immune system. Featuring the superfruit of the prickly pear (nopal) cactus, it contains a powerful class of nutrients called BIOFLAVONOIDS. WHAT ARE BIOFLAVONOIDS? Bioflavonoids are plant-based compounds that have antioxidant properties and give the prickly pear fruit its distinctive bright red color. The prickly pear cactus of the Sonoran Desert contains a high concentration of protein-bound Bioflavonoids. This is because the Sonoran Desert is the most extreme desert in the world and this plant needs Bioflavonoids to survive in this intense environment. How about you? Are you exposed to toxins from outside and inside your body? Perhaps Bioflavonoids— these nutrients from the Sonoran Desert—can help you experience greater wellness.

NOPALEA™
BOUNTY FROM THE SONORAN DESERT Do the secrets to a long, healthy life reside in the vast Sonoran Desert— the most extreme desert in the world? It was this desert—straddling parts of North America’s southwest—that gave the world Nopalea. In fact, the Sonoran Desert is the second-largest ecosystem on the planet, with a scope of plant and animal life rivaled only by the tropical Rainforest. TriVita has a tradition of developing innovative wellness products, and the ingredients we use in our formulations come from all over the world. Yet right in our own Arizona backyard we found that native plants in the Sonoran Desert offer beneficial properties. We tapped the expertise of local botanists and the indigenous peoples to focus ultimately on the remarkable prickly pear cactus and its fruit. FROM ANCIENT TRADITIONS TO MODERN SCIENCE We found that the prickly pear juice can benefit the human body. The Current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP)—assure the highest quality At TriVita we make sure that all dietary supplement ingredients in our products come only from vendors who comply with the highest standards of Current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP). Additionally, all TriVita supplements are manufactured in the United States.
ancient natives have known this health secret for centuries, and they actually ate the prickly pear fruit as part of their daily diet. That helps explain why they flourished with a long lifespan and vibrant good health. We also discovered that the Sonoran Desert is a wellspring of wellness. It provides an abundance of prickly pear fruit that we can use to enhance our health, just like the traditional native people do.
“…I will never go without Nopalea.” “This past year, I was stricken with swelling and had to rely on crutches to walk. I wasn’t sleeping well during this period in my life. I ordered Nopalea and it was the best decision I ever made. I have much less discomfort and now sleep better than ever. At this point of my life, I will never go without Nopalea. My wife and I are able to enjoy life again. I can once again bowl and spend time with my grandchildren.” Randy H., ITBO*—Chambersburg, PA * Independent TriVita Business Owners (ITBO) may receive commission on the sale of TriVita products. Members whose testimonials appear in print or online receive $25 in TriVita product credits.
Suggested Use: When taking Nopalea for the first time, drink 90 ml in the morning and 90 ml in the evening for 60 days. For maintenance, drink 30-90 ml daily depending on your body’s needs. May be mixed with water or your favorite beverage. Keep refrigerated.

DR. LIBBY’S SLOW-DISSOLVE TABLETS
BRAND NEW LOOK, SAME GREAT FORMULA
OVER 50? CHANCES ARE YOU’RE B-12 DEFICIENT We need Vitamin B-12 for metabolism—all the processes in the body that depend on energy. According to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), this includes such vital functions as breathing, circulating blood, digesting food and keeping our brain and nerves functioning.1 Naturally, you want to do all you can to keep your body’s storehouse of B-12 at a healthy
6
level. But some people are more likely than others to suffer a Vitamin B-12 deficiency. You could have a B-12 deficiency if you: —Are over age 50 —Follow a vegetarian or vegan diet —Have had gastrointestinal surgery — Have digestive disorders such as celiac or Crohn’s disease1
We all feel tired and listless sometimes, but if symptoms like these are part of daily life, you might be suffering from a Vitamin B-12 deficiency. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) warns healthcare providers to watch their patients for these signs of low Vitamin B-12 levels:2
Dr. Libby is also the formulator of our Vital C products. See page 14 for information.
KEY SIGNS OF DEFICIENCY We all feel tired and listless sometimes, but if symptoms like these are part of daily life, you might be suffering from a Vitamin B-12 deficiency. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) warns healthcare providers to watch their patients for these signs of low Vitamin B-12 levels:2 • Fatigue • Weakness • Shortness of breath • Fainting • Vision loss • Tingling of the hands • Pale skin • Hallucinationsand feet • Anemia • Heart palpitations The CDC doesn’t stop there: It notes that a B-12 deficiency can also show up as anorexia (an eating disorder), diarrhea and constipation… it might even boost the risk of heart disease and stroke.2 It’s important to note that even if you have any of these signs, it
does not necessarily mean that you have a B-12 deficiency. These signs could stem from many causes.
Get the B-12 you need As science continues to show more and more ways that a lack of B-12 adversely affects our health, it becomes even more important that we use a supplement that effectively provides our bodies—and our brains with the Vitamin B-12 they so desperately need. If you’re concerned about the potential health risks of B-12 deficiency, you’ll want to know about Dr Libby’s Sublingual B-12. It’s been formulated to deliver more of the “B” you’re buying. That’s because these tablets dissolve under the tongue. With no artificial sweeteners or preservatives, this made-in-the-U.S. supplement is premium quality. Unlike some chain store brands of B-12, TriVita’s products are subject to high quality standards, from highest quality ingredients and manufacturing to third-party testing and certification.

Did you know? People who use cholesterol-lowering drugs may benefit from taking more CoQ-10, according to a study in the Canadian Journal of Physiology & Pharmacology. In a double-blind, randomized study, researchers found that CoQ-10 supplementation for people taking statins helped increase CoQ-10 levels. What’s more, they found that increased supplementation may help significantly reduce the muscle pain and weakness that can result from statin therapy.3

Did you know? Omega-3 Fatty Acids (EFAs) are vital to good health—but not all EFA supplements are the same. TriVita uses only pharmaceutical-grade omega-3 to deliver purity, potency and quality in an exclusive, 10-stage process. You can be assured that the fish oil in OmegaPrime is mercury/contaminantfree, because it begins its journey to you in uncontaminated waters close to the Arctic Circle. We use small fish that live in this “clean” region year-round, because fish that migrate from other areas may carry toxins. The fish are cold-stored as soon as they’re caught, and the oils are harvested at dockside. Expensive, time-consuming processes are then used to process and test the oils to deliver what is truly the best “premier fatty acid complex” available.
Our omegas come from not one, but four superb sources According to the Public Health Agency of Canada,
Fish
Flaxseed
Evening Primrose
say “yes” to polyunsaturated fats, especially omega-3, as polyunsaturated fats help to lower bad cholesterol by improving blood pressure and reducing plaque buildup.
Perilla Seed
When it comes to your body’s health and its daily needs for EFAs, it’s important to choose the right supplement. When you choose OmegaPrime®, you are assured of getting the best. Suggested Use: Adults: Take two soft gel capsules per day. May be used up to 3 months.
Omega-3 and Omega-6: Two body health essentials Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids are important in the normal functioning of all tissues of the body.5 The body needs them for many functions, from building healthy cells to maintaining brain and nerve function.6 They also help:5,7 • Skin and hair health • Support circulation and oxygen uptake • Maintain bone health, regulate metabolism and maintain the reproductive system.5 Omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids are considered essential fatty acids because they are necessary for human health but the body cannot make them so they must be obtained from the diet.2

essential fatty acids
Missing something essential? Give your body the “must-haves”: Essential Fatty Acids Give your body the “good fats” it needs to thrive: Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs). After all, according to experts from the Harvard School of Public Health, EFAs (Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids) are the building blocks for everything from building healthy cells to maintaining brain and nerve function. The problem? The body can’t make them on its own.1 So what can you do to maintain overall health? You could try to get all your EFAs from food (mostly fatty fish like salmon and mackerel, plus walnuts and flaxseed)1, or you could choose a premium, great-tasting supplement.
Four EFAs, one product With TriVita’s OmegaPrime®, one bottle brings you EFAs from not one or two, but four premium sources: • Fish Oil—120 mg EPA, 80 mg DHA • Flaxseed Oil—400 mg, a rich source of essential fatty acid alpha-linolenic acid (ALA)2 • Evening Primrose Oil—350 mg, contains high amounts of unsaturated fatty acids including omega-6, linolenic acid and gamma-linolenic acid (GLA)3 • Perilla Seed Oil—50 mg, high in omega-3 fatty acid, alpha-linolenic acid4 So make sure you get all the essentials for wellness. Enjoy the natural lemon flavor of OmegaPrime.
