FROM THE FOUNDER
Michael R. Ellison
Did you notice? Was there any change on the front covers of the Januaryand February catalogs?
The change did not happen because our purpose changed. The purpose of helping people to experience greater wellness has been our driving force since we started TriVita 25 years ago. But now, with all the testimonies of our Members sharing their wellness experiences, we are declaring, "WHERE WELLNESS HAPPENS!" That is the change on the front cover, if you didn't notice. It just thrills me to read the reports in each catalog from our Members as they shout for joy about their wellness experiences.
Yes, I believe greater wellness can occur at any age and any stage in life. It is the way our God created us. The body is beyond remarkable in how it can heal itself when given the right nutrients, nurturing and yes, the right well-being chemicals from the thoughts we think. If we daily think on fear, anxiety, worry and stressful thoughts, chemicals will be released that are damaging to our health over time. But thoughts of gratitude, joy and faith will produce chemicals that support your wellness. Here is a tip from me when taking your TriVita supplements each day: Thank God for His creation of all the plants found in your supplements, with their specialized nutrients to support your wellness. Say it aloud and believe it to receive the optimal benefits.
For February we’re focusing on immune health, and I could not be more enthused over the products offered this month. Start with Essential D, with its vitamin D3 that’s required by the immune system to fight off bacteria and viruses. Then, combine that with Omega3 Prime, which is incredibly important for brain and heart health, as well as the health of every cell in the body. And, of course, Zinc, the “Gatekeeper of Immunity” that helps ensure a balanced and effective immune response. It’s a powerhouse immunity-boosting trio that every person on the planet should be taking.
I promise you will experience more opportunities to support your wellness goals as a Member of our TriVita wellness community in 2025. A community where wellness happens!
With love and care,
Michael R. Ellison Founder of TriVita

Are You at Risk for Vitamin D Deficiency?
1 in 3 People have low vitamin D. Are you one of them?
Vitamin D is required by the immune system to fight off bacteria and viruses.1
Maybe you already know that vitamin D supports bone health and helps prevent osteoporosis. But, there’s so much more to this essential vitamin than just strong bones.
Dangers of vitamin D Deficiency
• Compromised immune system
• Osteoporosis and bone weakness
• Fatigue, muscle aches and cramps2
Avoiding Vitamin D Deficiency
Lack of sun exposure is a significant contributor to vitamin D deficiency, especially during the long winter months and Virus Season when we stay indoors more. Certain dietary restrictions, and even aging, further increase the risk.
Benefits of TriVita’s Essential D™
• Formulated with 1,000 IUs (25 mcg) of vitamin D3
• Bioidentical to the vitamin D3 your body produces naturally from sunlight
• Easy-to-swallow soft gels with soybean oil for optimal absorption
How much vitamin D do you need?
The growing trend among physicians is to recommend a level of 50 or more, with a vitamin D level of 80 being optimal. A simple blood test can determine your vitamin D levels.
Start moving toward a stronger immune system now by supplementing with TriVita’s Essential D.

Essential D™
Boost your immune system with a healthy dose of vitamin D3
Many of us don’t get enough vitamin D. Causes of this deficiency may include:
• Getting older. Vitamin D gets harder to absorb and synthesize with age.1
• Staying indoors. Your skin needs sunlight in order to make vitamin D.2
• Sunblock. Using SPF 8+ may reduce the skin’s vitamin D synthesis by 95%.3
• Overweight. Carrying extra pounds may create vitamin D insufficiency risks.4
Essential D:
Easy to swallow and designed for easy absorption, Essential D starts with 1,000 IU of vitamin D3 as Cholecalciferol, a bioavailable form that matches what your body produces naturally. Calcium intake, when combined with sufficient vitamin D3, a healthy diet and regular exercise, may reduce the risk of developing osteoporosis.
Vitamin D supports whole-body wellness:
• Helps in the absorption and use of phosphorus
• Helps in the development and maintenance of bones and teeth
• Helps to prevent vitamin D deficiency

The “Gatekeeper of Immunity” that is essential for optimal immune function
Zinc is known as the “gatekeeper” because of its multifaceted roles in regulating the immune system’s activity, ensuring a balanced and effective response to pathogens while also protecting against overactivity that can lead to autoimmune issues or free radicals that cause chronic inflammation.
IMMUNE CELL DEVELOPMENT AND FUNCTION: Zinc is crucial for the normal development and function of immune cells, especially T cells and neutrophils, which are critical in defending the body against infections.1
ANTIOXIDANT PROPERTIES: Zinc plays a role in protecting cells from oxidative stress, which can damage immune cells and other tissues. By minimizing oxidative damage, zinc helps maintain the integrity of immune cells and their ability to function effectively.
REGULATING INFLAMMATION: Zinc helps modulate the body’s natural inflammatory response. It ensures that the body can mount an effective defense against pathogens without creating excessive free radicals, which cause inflammation and tissue damage. This balancing act is crucial in preventing excessive free radicals, which are linked to various diseases.2
BARRIER FUNCTION: Zinc supports the integrity of physical barriers, such as the skin and the mucous membranes in the respiratory and gastrointestinal tracts, which act as the first line of defense against pathogens.
GENE REGULATION: Zinc is involved in the regulation of genes that are critical for immune responses. It influences the expression of cytokines and other signaling molecules that guide the immune system’s response to threats.3

ARE YOU GETTING ENOUGH OMEGA-3?
Omega-3 fatty acids are essential and required for human life. While many know the importance of omega fatty acids as part of a healthy lifestyle, it hasn’t been clear how low amounts of fatty acids in the blood are also linked to all types of death, including heart disease and cancer, until now. A recent analysis1 consisting of 17 perspective studies and consisting of more than 40,000 participants over 16 years has shown a 15-18% lowered risk of all causes of death based on higher polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) in the blood. It is important to detect early signs of omega-fatty acid deficiencies for supplement therapy to aid in reducing the incidence of disease and risk of premature death.1,2
While the analysis does not show how polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) were consumed by each participant, it’s important to recognize the best sources. The best sources of PUFAs are found in sea life, mostly cold-water fish. Fish have the highest concentrations of PUFAs as well as the best ratio of omega-3 EPA and DHA, which reduces chronic inflammation—the root cause of most diseases.
protection. There are 100 billion neurons that make up your brain consisting of 60% PUFAs, and every cell in the human body has a cell membrane made of PUFAs. We are made entirely out of cells, and cellular performance is key to maintaining optimal health.
Quality fish oil supplements have an excellent ratio of omega-3 EPA and DHA and come without the harmful toxins such as mercury found in fish. A study in the UK shows taking fish oil supplements lowers the risk of cardiovascular and all diseases across 427,000 participants.3 “The Heart and Soul” study4 shows that lower levels of whole blood EPA and DHA levels are associated with all causes of mortality and a slower rate of telomere shortening over a 5-year period. Accelerated telomere shortening is associated with a shorter lifespan.
Omega-3 fatty acids 3, 6 and 9 also contribute to multiple biological roles, such as influencing inflammation, reducing oxidative stress and presenting neuroprotection and cardiovascular

We’re all looking for the lifestyle improvements we can make to not only maintain but improve our health outcomes. According to this analysis, we can live a longer, fuller life with less disease by managing the omega-3 levels in our blood. Because omega-3s have a powerful influence on the health of every cell we have, we can expect to have more energy, vitality and quality of life to continue to do the things we love longer.

THE BENEFITS OF B VITAMINS
Your overall system loves B vitamins; they make sure the body’s cells are functioning properly. B12 is probably the most popular of the B vitamins and is vital for neurological functions, energy and red blood cell development, but all of the B vitamins are great for you. Today, let’s talk about the synergistic benefits of how eight individual B vitamins work together to maximize energy and cellular health.
According to the National Institute of Health, B vitamins are primarily responsible for helping your metabolism work properly. B vitamins are dependent on a healthy microbiota in the gut. This shows not only the importance of the synergy of micronutrients working together but also how they rely on gut health.1 Your metabolism involves the chemical processes needed for life, such as making cells, creating energy from the food you eat and breaking down byproducts of energy and waste matter. B vitamins and how they interact with the body are essential to our overall health.
B vitamins are water-soluble, which means they dissolve in water inside your body and are then easily absorbed into tissue for immediate use. Because B vitamins are so easily absorbed and used, they cannot be stored like fat-soluble vitamins. For this reason, it is important to consume healthy, fresh, unprocessed foods, rich in B vitamins every day. This will also assist healthy microbiota in the gut. Combining foods rich in B vitamins with a healthy gut will optimize digestion and metabolism of vital energy throughout the body. Primary sources of B vitamins in animal products consist of fish, meat, poultry, eggs and dairy products. B vitamins can also be obtained from plant sources such as leafy green vegetables, beans and peas.

B Vitamins and their Benefits
B1 (Thiamine): Needed for carbohydrate, fat and protein metabolism, and blood sugar regulation, as well as nerve and muscle function.2
B2 (Riboflavin): Needed for carbohydrate metabolism, red blood cell growth and development, and cellular function.3
B3 (Niacin): Converts food into energy, creates and repairs DNA, supports healthy cholesterol levels and maintains cognitive function.4
B5 (Pantothenic Acid): Especially important for breaking down fats, metabolizing carbohydrates and protein, and supporting muscle endurance, nerve function and cognitive function.5
B6 (Pyridoxine): Cardiovascular, brain and nerve support, as well as protein metabolism.6
B7 (Biotin): Converts carbohydrates, fats and proteins into energy and supports skin, hair and nails.7
B9 (Folic Acid): Protein metabolism, needed for making DNA and other genetic material for cell replication. Especially important during pregnancy.8
B12 (Cyanocobalamin, Methylcobalamin): Protein and fat metabolism, cardiovascular support, nerve fiber support, cognitive support, formation of hemoglobin and prevention of anemia.9
All these B vitamins work together and are involved in many of the vital functions of the body.

What’s the story behind B12 and Alfred Libby?
By Scott Conard, MD
Alfred Libby, a pioneer in nutrients and health, patented the technology that still powers TriVita’s Slow Dissolve B-12 supplements. His original formula lets the dissolving action of B12 get into the bloodstream without an injection or swallowing a pill.
Alfred Libby was an associate of Linus Pauling, Ph.D., the 2-time Nobel Laureate and “Father of Vitamin C.” Early in his career, Libby discovered the dramatic health changes that B12 could make and worked for decades to raise awareness.
“We’ve given people back their lives”
Along with B12, Libby was the “star” of TV infomercials beginning in 2000. Here, I’ve selected some of his memorable thoughts:
“We’ve given people back their lives,”
Libby said. At the time, painful and expensive injections were the only way to supplement effectively with B12. And, undiagnosed B12 deficiency caused untold damage.
Scott Conard, MD, DABFM, FAAFP, has more than 20 years of successful clinical practice, research and leadership experience. Through his Texas-based practice and books he’s authored, he empowers people to take control of their health.
“B12 deficiency, undiagnosed and untreated, wreaks havoc,” he declared. This “havoc” took many forms:
• Moodiness
• Low energy
• Lack of focus
He would talk about patients who, with Slow Dissolve B-12, went from moodiness and lethargy to enthusiasm and energy… older people, sent to nursing homes because they were disruptive and difficult, becoming “functional human beings again.”
A key element of Alfred Libby’s Slow Dissolve B-12 is its unique delivery system: where the tablets dissolve and get quickly absorbed into the bloodstream.
Dramatic effects and a change of career
In my own medical practice, I found the same kinds of patient results that Libby witnessed years before. For years, my medical practice specialized in treating the elderly. Patients would come into my office complaining that they had no energy and felt “low,” and they would beg for B12 “shots.” After their shots they became so much more alive, so much more well, that I changed course in my career.
I switched my focus to preventive medicine, convinced that the way to make a difference in people’s lives was to help them get the vitamins and nutrients they need before health issues arise.
My own experience has shown me the truth of Libby’s statement: “It’s so fulfilling, so gratifying to be involved with this [Alfred Libby’s Slow Dissolve B-12]… and with the right company, TriVita.”
In his original infomercial, Alfred Libby would gesture toward the phone banks and say, “When I see the phones light up it reminds me of the song ‘You Light Up My Life.’ That’s how I feel when I see those lights; people’s lives are lighting up.”

A Treasure from the Desert: The Nopalea Superfruit
Do creaky knees and aching joints sound all too familiar? You’re not alone. Arthritis affects more than 6 million Canadians — more than diabetes, heart disease, cancer and stroke combined. One in five adults across the nation deals with joint pain or chronic inflammation, and the numbers are on the rise.1
If you’re looking for hope beyond surgery, neverending pain medication or giving in to a lifetime of pain, you may want to try Opuntia ficus-indica, more commonly known as the prickly pear or nopal cactus.
The Nopal Cactus in History & Culture
Native to Mexico, the nopal cactus thrives in the arid and semiarid regions of the Sonoran Desert.2 Discovered centuries ago by the Aztecs, this ancient Mesoamerican culture used the nopal cactus for food and medicine, as well as in their rituals. After Columbus made his way to the New World, sailors began using nopal to treat scurvy, and the prickly pear cactus made its way back across the globe aboard European ships.3
Today, the nopal cactus with its fruit is a national symbol of Mexico. It appears in the national coat of arms and on the country’s flag, where a proud Golden eagle stands perched on a flowering prickly pear cactus. Both the green nopal pads and its colorful fruit are edible, and numerous recipes can be found on the internet. The pads may be cooked or eaten raw, as long as one is careful to remove the spines and barbed glochids. The fruit also may be eaten raw, though it, too, has spines, and it is often used to make juice, jelly and jam.3
Resilience in the Harshest Conditions
To call this amazing plant hardy would be a considerable understatement. Not only does the nopal cactus thrive in extreme heat and drought conditions, it also survives freezing temperatures and soil lacking in nutrients.
Another name for this incredible flora is la planta de vida, or “life-giving plant,” as even its fallen leaves become new plants.4 It is prolific, able to produce fruit year round, and an old Mexican adage says, “Whoever has a nopal in his house, will never go hungry.”5
It’s no wonder that people living in extreme desert climates looked to the nopal for sustenance.
TriVita’s Nopalea® Supplement:
Michael’s Story
On a trip to Mexico, the founder of TriVita, Michael R. Ellison, sat listening to the indigenous Seri people tell of their ancestors’ strength and resilience living in the harsh Sonoran desert . Inspired by the Seri’s tales and spurred by his own family’s needs, Michael pondered the thought, “Somewhere in that desert there is an amazing plant that will be prolific, and it will help.”
“Nopalea – It is a gift from God, and how it was discovered is amazing.”
~ Michael R. Ellison
Arriving home, Michael began working with scientists at Arizona State University, as well as botanists from the Native American Pima Tribe, to study what they ate in the desert that helped them. The result of their research and passion was Nopalea, a delicious, nutrient-dense drink made from the fruit of the prickly pear cactus.
Nopalea has since become one of TriVita’s best selling and most beloved health supplements.

ANTIOXIDANTS Are Your Friends
WHAT ARE ANTIOXIDANTS?
An antioxidant is defined as a substance that inhibits oxidation, especially one used to counteract the deterioration of stored food products. The body’s trillion or so cells face threats from many different sources from lack of food to infection with a virus. Another constant threat comes from chemicals called free radicals. At very high levels, these free radicals are capable of damaging cells and genetic material. The body generates free radicals as the inevitable byproducts of turning food into energy. Free radicals are also formed by exposure to cigarette smoke, air pollution, stress, lack of exercise and viruses that are all around us.1 Excessive free radicals contribute to chronic diseases including cancer, heart disease and cognitive decline. There is evidence to suggest that eating foods such as fruits, vegetables and whole grains, which contain antioxidants in their natural state, are helpful in fighting the free radicals in our bodies. 2 However, many of us don’t eat enough of these foods, so supplementation is a must to support our wellness.
SUPPLEMENTS CAN HELP
Fortunately, we are not defenseless against the many free radicals. There are hundreds, probably thousands, of different substances that can act as antioxidants. The most familiar ones are vitamin C, vitamin E, beta-carotene and other related carotenoids, along with the minerals selenium and manganese. 2 Some foods referred to as “superfoods” because of their high antioxidants, along with proven, science-backed supplements are helpful as well. One of these is Nopalea, a great-tasting drink that is made with the fruit of the prickly pear cactus and is loaded with antioxidants.
YOU’VE GOT THIS
The bottom line is that this is not something you have to live with. You do need to do your part to live a healthier life and get more antioxidants to help with your fight against the free radicals. It’s always important to keep your immune system healthy and strong. If you desire to live your life with vitality, more mobility and flexibility, you can choose a healthy lifestyle that can make a significant impact on your overall wellness and possibly your longevity. You can do it!

Believing Is Feeling Pain Relief Superfruit to Help You Conquer the Fire Within
By Paul Bernitt, DHH
The Science of Pain Relief with Nopalea®
Imagine a life with less pain, better mobility and reduced reliance on medications. That’s what people are experiencing with TriVita’s Nopalea, a superfruit drink made from the prickly pear cactus. Unlike medications that only mask pain, Nopalea targets the root cause — chronic inflammation driven by free radicals.1
Free radicals are unstable molecules that cause oxidative stress in the body, leading to inflammation and pain. Over time, this can result in chronic pain, stiffness and reduced mobility. Nopalea’s rich antioxidant content, including betalains, neutralizes these free radicals, reducing inflammation and promoting natural healing.2
By addressing free radical damage, Nopalea helps the body restore a healthy inflammatory response, providing long-term relief without the side effects of traditional pain medications
Programming Your Body and Mind for Healing
Healing also involves the mind. The Bible, through verses like John 20:29 and Hebrews 11:1, emphasizes faith in unseen outcomes. Science shows that believing for a positive result triggers the brain to release healing chemicals, like endorphins, enhancing the body’s natural ability to heal. With faith in your body’s potential, combined with the power of Nopalea, true healing is possible.3

CoEnzyme Q-10
Feel rejuvenated: Boost your energy with CoEnzyme Q-10
CoEnzyme Q-10 is an important “bioenergetic antioxidant” that’s concentrated in the heart. The natural aging process may deplete CoQ-10, potentially leading to low CoQ-10 status. Statin drugs may also deplete CoQ-10. This “CoQ-10 drain” may affect your heart: Low CoQ-10 has been linked to diminished cardiac energy and cardiovascular health concerns.1-4
TriVita CoQ-10 may address these heart health concerns because it helps to replenish what statin drugs and aging may have taken away.5 By correcting your CoQ-10 status, you may promote this unique nutrient’s diverse range of cardio-supportive biological activities.
CoEnzyme Q-10:
• Is necessary in adequate amounts for heart energy metabolism6
• Is a cardiovascular antioxidant that helps protect the heart and blood vessels7
• Supports the function of the blood vessel linings, potentially helping with circulation8
• May help maintain heartbeat stability and the heart’s blood-pumping efficiency9
• May help to maintain blood pressure that’s already within normal range10
Supplying 50 mg of quality CoQ-10 in each easy-to-swallow soft gel, TriVita CoQ-10 is a convenient way to help contribute to the CoQ-10 status that’s associated with healthy cardiovascular function.

PREMIUM HEART HEALTH SUPPORT
Elderberry
The immunity-boosting power of black elderberry
European black elderberry, or Sambucus nigra, is the key ingredient in TriVita’s premium Elderberry supplement. Black elderberry has the most potent antioxidant and antiviral properties of any elderberry variety. An article medically reviewed by Kathleen M. Zelman, RD, LD, MPH states: “Black elderberries have been studied most widely as a treatment for the viral flu. Scientists believe that the berry stimulates the immune system’s chemical responses, bringing relief from flu symptoms and possibly shortening its duration.”1
A NATURAL IMMUNE-BOOSTER WITH ANTIVIRAL PROPERTIES
• Inhibits viral replication: Elderberry extract has been shown to block the replication of viruses, such as influenza A and B, by preventing the virus from attaching to host cells.2
• Neutralizes viruses: Elderberry is packed with flavonoids, which help neutralize viruses, reducing their ability to infect host cells.3
• Effective against multiple viral strains: Elderberry has shown broad-spectrum antiviral effects against a variety of viruses, including influenza and H1N1.4
POWERFUL ANTIOXIDANTS TO COMBAT FREE RADICALS
• Reduces C-reactive protein markers: Elderberry has been shown to lower levels of CRP markers, which helps to mitigate free radicals throughout the body.5
• Neutralizes free radicals: Elderberry is rich in antioxidants, which help to neutralize free radicals. This reduces oxidative stress, a key contributor to chronic inflammation.6
• Reduces oxidative stress: By combating free radicals, elderberry helps lower oxidative stress, protecting cells from oxidative damage and helping preserve overall health.

VitaCal-MagD™ K2
Ensure your calcium does what it’s supposed to
Vitamin K2 ensures the calcium (166.67 mg) in VitaCal-MagD™ K2 does what it’s supposed to. It promotes the calcification of bones and may support healthy blood vessels.
VitaCal-Mag D K2 also helps maintain proper muscle function, including the heart muscle.
Add in the benefits provided by magnesium (83.33 mg) and vitamin D3 (166.7 IU) and you have a powerhouse of musculoskeletal support that other supplements on the market simply don’t provide.
Calcium plays a crucial role in maintaining strong bones, supporting their structure and function.1 Calcium intake, when combined with sufficient vitamin D, a healthy diet and regular exercise, may reduce the risk of developing osteoporosis.
But getting enough calcium from food alone can be a challenge. 2 On top of that, calcium absorption may drop by up to 20% in adulthood—and decline even further as we grow older, just when we start needing more.1,3

Maximize Your Muscle Potential: Your genes aren’t your destiny
A note from Robert
R. Wolfe, Ph.D.
A world-renowned scientist and leading authority on essential amino acids, Dr. Wolfe formulated the 9 Essential Amino Acid proprietary blend contained in MyoHealth. He currently serves as Professor of Geriatrics at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, as well as Director of the Center for Translational Research in Aging and Longevity at the UAMS Reynolds Institute on Aging.
While many people assume how they age is determined strictly by genetics, your lifestyle has a direct impact on your genes, your health and how you age. That’s because we’re not born with a finite amount of muscle; our muscles are in a constant state of being broken down and reproduced. Likewise, all proteins in the body are continuously breaking down and new proteins being synthesized to shed damaged muscle fibers and produce new ones.
Approximately 20% of amino acids released through the process of protein breakdown are irreversibly oxidized and therefore not available for reincorporation into newly synthesized proteins.¹
In order to maintain a constant lean body mass, these amino acids must be replaced, either by synthesis or via dietary protein or amino acid intake.
The rate of synthesis must also exceed the rate of breakdown to gain muscle protein. However, this process requires nutrient intake or new amino acids to provide what’s needed to produce that protein.
THE MYOHEALTH DIFFERENCE
This muscle protein turnover is really the key to muscle metabolism, as normal nutrition is insufficient. MyoHealth® provides the optimal formulation of essential amino acids and nutrients to stimulate the resynthesis of muscle protein and replace worn out muscle fibers with fibers that function more effectively.

Unlike MyoHealth, most alternative meal replacement options and supplements have never been clinically proven to increase muscle strength and function.
Instead, these products serve primarily as an ineffective means of caloric support. As confirmation, a recent study showed that due to the anabolic resistance of aging, dietary protein is not as effective in older adults.2 That means no matter how much protein you eat, you will never achieve a balance between how much muscle protein is produced and how much is lost.
WHAT MAKES ESSENTIAL AMINO ACIDS (EAAS) BETTER THAN WHEY PROTEIN ISOLATE?
Whey protein, a milk protein that is a byproduct of the production of cheese, is the most popular protein supplement. It is a high quality protein with an excellent content and profile of EAAs. Whey protein is not a single protein; it is composed of a variety of proteins and peptides (short chains of amino acids). In the form in which whey is separated during cheese production, it contains more carbohydrates than protein. The carbohydrates are partly lactose, which creates issues for individuals who are lactose intolerant. Whey protein isolate is produced by further processing of natural whey protein and results in a product as much as 90% protein, with the rest mainly composed of carbohydrates. The addition of flavoring to whey protein isolate may add as much as 30% additional carbohydrates. As such, similar to all other protein supplements and protein food sources, whey protein is not pure protein.3
