ESSENTIALS
Michael R. Ellison
for HEALTH & WELLNESS
Good health is a gift to be treasured and nurtured every day. TriVita joyfully shares these keys to helping you experience wellness: the 10 essentials of physical, emotional and spiritual health.
PHYSICAL 1. Breathe Deeply 2. Drink Water 3. Sleep Peacefully 4. Eat Nutritiously 5. Enjoy Activity
EMOTIONAL 6. Give and Receive Love 7. Be Forgiving 8. Practice Gratitude 9. Develop Acceptance
SPIRITUAL 10. Develop a Relationship with God
CREATING AN ENERGY FOUNDATION This month we are featuring two great products that create a wonderful duo of effects that will contribute to your energy, vitality and health. Both products play a distinct part in the harmony of energy. Dr. Libby’s B-12 formula is still our Members’ favorite product, contributing to the energy you feel mentally, and the clarity and focus that add to vitality. CoQ-10 plays a role in energy at the cellular level: It is like the spark plug that ignites the body’s energy engine by jump-starting energy production within all cells. It also plays a major role in energy metabolism and can have a profound effect on your health. There is something about “feeling good” with energy and vitality that changes our whole world view. If you have felt those days of fatigue, mental fogginess or lethargy, it may not be the way life is, but simply a lack of the nutrients that create the foundation for your energy. As a Member of TriVita, we are offering you free shipping on your order of $99 or more, and a volume discount up to $20. See page 3 for details. And if you are a TriVita Premier Member, you earn 4% on every order, redeemable at any time. We value you and desire to create value for you through quality products and an enjoyable shopping experience. Summer is all about engaging in energetic activities. Support your energy needs with our special June energy offer!

ENERGY, STAMINA & PERFORMANCE SUPPORT
Do you sometimes feel like your “get up and go” just “got up and went”? Keep your batteries charged and powerful with TriVita’s line of energy support supplements. Life takes vitality, stamina and focus, whatever the demands on your time. Don’t just get by—get in gear toward your goals, every day.
SIMPLE DAILY ENERGIZERS Light up your life Exposure to bright light may help you feel more energized, happier and less sleepy, according to a study from The Netherlands. Researchers found that bright light was particularly beneficial in the morning and when people had experienced low levels of energy in the previous hour.1 Drink up Dehydration is a major culprit when it comes to fatigue: losing as little as 1.5% of your body’s normal water volume
can leave you dragging, as well as affect your mood and mental clarity.2 Get your fiber fix Eating a high-fiber breakfast can add some zip to your day, a Cardiff University study showed. Participants who ate high-fiber breakfast cereal for four weeks reported a 10% reduction in fatigue, in addition to improved mental health and less difficulty falling asleep.3

GET MORE ENERGY, NOW! Energy is what powers our daily activities. Without the right balance of mental, physical and cellular energy, we would be stuck in neutral, unable to move or perform our necessary functions. WHAT’S AFFECTING YOUR ENERGY LEVELS?
We know that our bodies operate at a more optimal level when given the proper nutrients and nurturing. If you find yourself feeling sluggish at particular times throughout the day, ask yourself these questions: • Am I getting enough sleep? Most North Americans don’t. Sleep apnea, prescription drugs and chronic pain are some of the many causes of sleep deprivation. • Do I rely on external influences to pump up my energy, like caffeine and other stimulants? If so, you will experience peaks and valleys of energy, a roller coaster ride of energy throughout the day. • Am I taking vitamins and minerals to supplement my food intake? As we all know, aging impacts every part of our body, including the ability to absorb vital nutrients. An example of this age-related phenomenon is with Vitamin B-12. Most people over the age of 50 begin to lose their ability to absorb Vitamin B-12, some faster than others. Energy ultimately is derived from the energy conversion factory within each and every cell in our body. Whether this factory is working at high efficiency is dependent on several factors, including appropriate fuel supply, vitamins and minerals, and co-factors such as CoQ-10, References: http://physics.about.com/od/glossary/g/energy.htm http://www.physicsclassroom.com/class/energy/Lesson-1/Kinetic-Energy http://www.health.com/health/gallery/0,,20723540,00.html
AUTHOR BIO: SAMUEL GRIEF, M.D., CCFP, FCFP Dr. Grief is medical director at the University of Illinois and chairman of TriVita’s Medical & Scientific Advisory Board
among others. The right balance of these factors will allow maximum energy output and make you feel more energetic. INCREASING YOUR ENERGY THROUGH ACTIVITY AND DIET
Ironically, the more energy you expend on a daily basis, the more energy your body is able to generate from the foods you eat and the more your body can convert energy from its reserves. I recommend activity that balances aerobic and muscle toning benefits, such as skipping rope, swimming or any fitness class that combines the two. The type of diet that will increase energy is one with a balanced array of nutrients. Include a wide variety of vegetables and plant-derived foods. These types of foods contain the vitamins and minerals which power the energy conversion factories inside your body’s cells. In addition, plant chemicals known as phytochemicals act as partners with vitamins and minerals to enhance overall efficiency of the energy conversion process. The more activity you do, and the more your body can use the potential energy from the foods you eat, the more energy you will have to share with family, friends, co-workers and to enjoy for yourself.

ENERGY, STAMINA & PERFORMANCE SUPPORT
B-12 AND THE ENERGY CONNECTION By Scott Conard, M.D. It’s a simple medical fact: B-12 is a key part of our metabolism— and that means all the physical and chemical processes in the body that convert or use energy. When we say “metabolism,” we mean these vital body functions, all dependent on energy to keep us alive and thriving: breathing; circulating blood; contracting muscles; digesting food and nutrients; functioning of the brain and nerves. Every single one of these tasks requires adequate amounts of B-12.
Had your B-12 levels checked lately? There’s a good chance you could be deficient
VITAMIN B-12 FOR MENTAL CLARITY, FOCUS AND ENERGY
Vitamin B-12 is a nutrient that is essential for life and healthy aging. It is required for metabolism, a process that encompasses all the physical and chemical processes in the body that convert or use energy. This includes breathing, blood circulation, muscle contraction, food digestion and brain/nerve function.1,2 Signs of low Vitamin B-12 levels include weakness, fatigue, motor disturbances and a range of behavioral changes including mood and personality.3 Therefore, supplementing with Vitamin B-12 may help support mental clarity, focus and energy. You could have a B-12 deficiency if you:4 • Are over age 50 • Follow a vegetarian or vegan diet • Have had gastrointestinal disorders
As you may know, B-12 helps form red blood cells, and also helps keep our central nervous system running. When we don’t get enough B-12, a whole host of physical and mental problems can occur (see right).
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.
In my own medical practice, I’ve seen the difference that B-12 can make in people’s lives. I’ve had many patients come to me with low energy, mood problems and a lack of interest in life. And I’ve seen many remarkable turnarounds in these same patients once their B-12 deficiency was corrected.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) warns healthcare providers to watch their patients for these signs of low Vitamin B-12 levels:3
If a nutrient deficiency of any sort is a concern to you, I urge you to consult with your healthcare provider.
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. However, it does mean that your healthcare provider might want to rule out B-12 deficiency as a possible culprit.

HEALTHY INFLAMMATION SUPPORT
NOPALEA™
Because healthy inflammation is key to aging well Nopalea, a delicious nutrient-rich drink originating from the fruit of the nopal cactus, supports the normal and essential anti-inflammatory function performed by the immune system—and may help lower inflammation.1 According to a study in the European Journal of Nutrition & Food Safety: “The fruit share some constituents with the stems, and contain additional unique polyphenols and Betalain pigments with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities.”2 WHAT ARE BETALAINS?
These plant-based compounds not only give the nopal fruit its distinctive bright red color, but they also have antioxidant properties. Because the nopal cactus used in Nopalea comes from one of the most extreme deserts in the world (the Sonoran Desert), it needs the unique nutritional profile of Betalains in order to survive in its extreme environment. How about you? Are you affected by inflammation? Nopalea and these nutrients from the Sonoran Desert may help you experience greater wellness.

SCIENCE CONFIRMS WHAT ANCIENT PEOPLE KNEW
Traditions of the past, health choices of today Imagine you’re wandering through Arizona’s sweltering Sonoran Desert when suddenly you see a splash of vibrant color. You approach and find a cactus oasis: broad green pads bursting with fragrant blooms and clusters of purple fruit. NOPAL FRUIT: JEWEL OF THE DESERT
This Sonoran desert cactus is nopal, and its pads, fruit and flowers have been prized by Native American and Mesoamerican cultures for millennia.1 Today, modern science is revealing why. Studies show the nopal fruit supplies vitamins, minerals and fiber—along with a special class of pigments with antioxidant properties.2 The traditional native people ate the nopal fruit as part of their daily diet, which explains why they flourished with a long lifespan and vibrant good health. Today, this vast desert continues to provide an abundance of nopal fruit that we too, can use to enhance our health. References: 1 http://pollinator.org/Resources/Opuntia.draft.pdf 2 Shetty A, et al.

HEALTHY INFLAMMATION SUPPORT
REDUCING INFLAMMATION NATURALLY Inflammation has been called the “secret killer” for its stealthy role in disease; fortunately, there are simple steps you can take to help protect yourself.1,3-5,7 Anti-inflammatory foods Studies demonstrate that a Mediterranean-style diet— fruits and vegetables, whole grains, healthy fats, fish, minimal red meat—can help lower inflammation markers, especially when combined with exercise and other healthy habits.2,4-5,7 Other foods with anti-inflammatory properties include: fatty fish such as salmon; assorted fruits and vegetables; spices such as curry and ginger; and green, white and oolong teas. Exercise One group of scientists analyzed the results of over 30 studies and came to the conclusion that a combination of exercise and diet had the most significant antiinflammatory effects.6 References: 1 Church TS et al. Aterioscler Thromb Vasc Biol, 2002; 22: 1869. 2 Deron SJ. C-reactive protein: Everything you need to know about CRP and why it’s more important than cholesterol to your health. New York: McGraw-Hill; 2004. 3 Després J. Arterioscler Thromb Vasc Biol, 2004; 24: 1743. 4 Esposito K et al. JAMA, 2004; 292: 1440. 5 Geffken D et al. Am. J.

IS YOUR BODY TELLING YOU IT’S INFLAMED? One way to know is to have your CRP (C-reactive protein) levels tested when you have lab work done. This little-known protein can have a big impact on your health, as it acts as an indicator of inflammation in the body. Produced by the liver as part of the inflammatory process, CRP levels rise in conjunction with inflammation: the higher the CRP levels, the more inflammation present in the body.1,2 HOW CRP IS DETECTED
A simple blood test is used to measure CRP in the body; it can show that your overall inflammation level is up, but won’t reveal exactly where the inflammation is. It’s important to know that a low level of CRP doesn’t necessarily mean there is no inflammation in the body. In people with rheumatoid arthritis and lupus, for example, the standard test may not show high levels of CRP.1 Factors that can result in elevated CRP include infection, certain health conditions, genetics, poor lifestyle habits and obesity. You should always discuss laboratory test results with your healthcare provider.1-4 References: 1 http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/003356.htm 2 Church TS et al.

Complete & easy multi-vitamin nutrition Ever read a typical multi-vitamin’s label? You may be surprised to see artificial food dyes, fake flavors and synthetic preservatives.

CoEnzyme Q-10
20%*
Support a healthy heart and more 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: • CoQ-10 is necessary in adequate amounts for heart energy metabolism.
6
• CoQ-10 is a cardiovascular antioxidant that helps protect the heart and blood vessels.7 • CoQ-10 supports the function of the blood vessel linings, potentially helping with circulation.8 • CoQ-10 may help maintain heartbeat stability and the heart’s blood-pumping efficiency.9 • CoQ-10 may help to maintain blood pressure that’s already within normal range.10 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. Support cardiovascular wellness with CoQ-10!

IMMUNE SYSTEM SUPPORT
Every day, it takes a strong immune system—and a healthy gut function—to keep you at optimal wellness. Help support your health and well-being with TriVita’s quality supplements. With ingredients sourced from around the globe, these unique products are “must-haves.”
EXERCISE FOR A STRONGER IMMUNE SYSTEM Want a great way to help your immune system fight off infections? Just boost your daily activity. That’s right: Exercise actually improves your immune system. 1. Work up a sweat. As our largest organ, our skin is very effective at sweating out toxins. Choose activities that you enjoy, and ideally sustain that activity for 30 minutes after you start to sweat. 2. Focus on deep breathing. Whatever activity you’re enjoying, focus on taking deep breaths to help the new oxygen get to the far areas of the lungs. 3. De-stress. Physical activity helps our bodies let go of stress. And less stress means more energy available to fight off any “bugs” that may be lurking around you. Reference: http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/ article/007165.htm
Essential D
Help protect against Vitamin D deficiency Vitamin D supports whole-body wellness, including immune function. The immune system needs Vitamin D to help protect against invading bacteria and viruses.1 A deficiency in this important nutrient has been associated with increased susceptibility to infection.2 It’s estimated that more than one billion people worldwide aren’t getting as much Vitamin D as they need.3 Each Essential D soft gel provides 1,000 IU of Vitamin D3, the same form made by the body.

BRAIN & NERVE HEALTH SUPPORT
Think about it: a healthy brain and nerves are the control and communications centers for everything we do. Be smart about the vital nutrients you need to help support brain and nerve health, and consider TriVita’s quality products. Add vital nutrients to your daily schedule: these supplements are formulated with your needs in mind. MYTHS ABOUT BRAIN HEALTH By Dr. Sandra Bond Chapman Our brain is the most powerful and complex machine ever created. See if you’re holding on to any of these common myths about brain health and mental performance. Your brain cannot change. Scientists used to believe that people were born with all of their brain cells, but we now know that your brain can grow, change, rewire, repair and heal itself every single day until the end of life. Your brain is more efficient if you multitask. When you multitask, your brain has to switch back and forth between tasks, which fatigues your brain’s frontal lobes, slows thinking efficiency and lowers performance. Brain games will make your brain healthy. Games or online brain training programs may make you better at those specific games, but do not significantly improve innovative and creative mental abilities.
