Movement Matters In Fact, a Lot More Than You Think
Movement is vital to every system in our bodies, and physical activity will improve your health in every way. You will experience better heart health and lung function, greater bone strength and muscle mass, improved balance, and even better mood and cognition — simply by getting up and moving more. Vitamin B12 and beetroot supplements can help you get there, but it’s up to you to take that first step.
Original B-12 and Super B-12
The tiny pink pill that packs a punch
Vitamin B12 helps your body have more energy, so you can move more!
It also helps your body produce dopamine and serotonin, two neurotransmitters that can help boost your mood, so you’ll enjoy doing more, too. Read pages 6-9.
“I would swear by Super B-12, because it’s amazing. I can’t imagine not taking it, because I feel so much better when I do. More energy, more clarity; just overall, feel better. 5 stars.”
– Romy M.
Nitric Oxide Plus and Beetroot Gummies Beetroot will improve blood flow
Beets are an excellent source of nitrates, which your body converts into nitric oxide. In turn, nitric oxide improves circulation to allow oxygen and nutrients to travel to your cells more efficiently. Read pages 8-13.
“Nitric Oxide Plus is just what I need in my blood, I feel more energetic; my blood is getting what it needs.”
– Constance G.

Why Just Sit There? Get Up and MOVE!
Where there is no movement, there is no life.
Did you know that nothing can live in the Dead Sea? Because it sits at the lowest land elevation on Earth, water that flows into the Dead Sea has no outlet. This lack of movement results in a salty, stagnant environment inhospitable to any life besides bacteria.1 Even visitors who enjoy floating in its famously buoyant depths are advised to stay in the water no more than 10 to 15 minutes and never to put their head or face under the water.
Similarities can be drawn between the lifeless waters of the Dead Sea and the health risks associated with a stagnant lifestyle void of movement.
Medical experts have long recognized that a sedentary lifestyle is associated with significant health risks, including heart disease and risk of death from medical problems. Johns Hopkins cardiologist Erin Michos, M.D., M.H.S., has even called it the “Sitting Disease.”2
Health Risks Associated with a Sedentary Lifestyle
The dangers of a sedentary lifestyle go beyond crumbs on the couch and an expanding waistline. The Mayo Clinic reports that health concerns linked to sitting for long periods include an increased risk of high blood pressure, unhealthy cholesterol levels and high blood sugar, as well as higher risk of death due to cardiovascular disease and even some cancers.3 To combat these ill effects, experts recommend that you stand up and move at least once every 30 minutes.
Top 5 Ways Movement Can Transform Your Health
Getting on the move is about more than just preventing health problems. Movement can relieve pain, reduce inflammation and improve recovery time. The mental, physical and emotional benefits of movement are far reaching and, in many cases, almost immediate. Believe it or not, the more you move, the less pain you will have!
1. Improved Mood – One of the first benefits you may notice is a better mood and less stress, thanks to your body releasing feel-good hormones called endorphins.4
2. More Energy – Moving your body causes your blood vessels to dilate, or open wider, so that oxygen and nutrients can flow more easily to your cells, giving you more energy.4
3. Stronger Bones and Muscle – Exercise may help slow age-related loss of bone density and help you maintain or increase muscle mass.5
4. Reduced Risk of Falls – Balance activities and muscle-strengthening exercisesmay help reduce the risk of falls for older adults.5
5. Increased Life Expectancy – A study of adults over age 45 suggests that those who spent less time sitting had an approximately 50% lower mortality rate than those who were more sedentary.6
Tips on How to Get Moving
What does healthy movement mean for you? It doesn’t have to look like training for a marathon or spending hours in a high-priced gym. Maybe it’s dancing in the kitchen or taking a stroll with your sweetheart. Or, you might like to golf or take a swing at pickleball. Whatever you do, make sure to get up and move at least once every 30 minutes.
If it seems overwhelming or you just don’t know where to start, here are some simple ideas to get you on your feet and moving toward a healthy transformation.
• Set an alarm for 30 minutes to remind yourself to get up and move
• Step outside for a breath of fresh air
• Go for a walk around the block
• Do some gardening or yard work
• Help clean up a local park
• Volunteer at an animal shelter or food pantry
• Park farther from the door
Now, Get Moving
It sounds like a contradiction, but getting up and moving when you don’t have the energy can actually give you the energy you need to move. Movement fuels energy! Don’t let a sedentary lifestyle put your health at risk. Take advantage of the myriad benefits that movement holds for your life. Don’t just sit there… Get up and MOVE!
But those who trust in the LORD will find new strength. They will soar high on wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not faint. — Isaiah 40:31, NLT

Transform Your Energy with B Vitamins and Beetroot From Sluggish to Supercharged
Do you lack the energy or stamina you used to enjoy?
TriVita’s Alfred Libby patented energy-boosting Original and Super B-12 sublingual supplements, along with our Nitric Oxide Plus and new Beetroot Gummies, are supplements we recommend to help keep you energized and moving throughout the day.
Pairing B Vitamins and Beetroot Will Help Keep You Energized
Harness the combined power of TriVita’s patented B vitamins and beetroot supplements to transform your energy levels and get you moving. Alfred Libby’s Original sublingual B-12 was patented because it maximizes absorption of vitamins B6, B12, B7 (biotin) and B9 (folate), which are essential for converting food into energy, supporting red blood cell production and maintaining nerve health.
Meanwhile, TriVita’s Nitric Oxide Plus, a 3-in-1 supplement with beetroot powder, and TriVita’s Beetroot Gummies have natural nitrates, antioxidants and essential nutrients that enhance blood flow, reduce inflammation and provide sustained energy.
Together, these powerful nutrients may help you overcome fatigue, improve endurance and enjoy a more vibrant, active life. With more activity, you can burn more calories, improving the energy and function of all your body systems and organs.
Three Easy Ways to Energize Your Day

2. Take one slow dissolve Alfred Libby sublingual B-12 tablet
Afternoon:
3. Take Beetroot Gummies with you on the go for a quick pick-me-up
Get More Out of Your Food with B Vitamins
Feeling sluggish and lacking energy can hinder your ability to stay active and enjoy the many health benefits associated with movement, such as better cognition, digestion and respiration. Fortunately, vitamins like B6, B7, B9 and B12 play a crucial role in boosting your energy levels by converting your food into energy, which helps you and all your body’s systems to get moving.
Vitamin B6 is vital for converting food into energy. It aids in the metabolism of proteins, fats and carbohydrates, ensuring your body produces energy efficiently.1 Folate, or vitamin B9, is essential for red blood cell formation and DNA synthesis, supporting overall vitality and stamina.2
Biotin, also known as vitamin B7, supports metabolic function by breaking down carbohydrates, fats and proteins for energy.3 Vitamin B12 is a powerhouse nutrient that enhances energy by aiding in the production of red blood cells and maintaining nerve health. It also helps convert food into energy, reducing fatigue and weakness. B12 deficiency can lead to anemia and significant energy depletion.4
The Powerful Effects of Beetroot on Blood Flow
Beetroot is rich in nitrates, which are compounds that your body converts into nitric oxide. Nitric oxide helps improve blood flow by dilating blood vessels, ensuring that oxygen-rich blood and nutrients reach your muscles, brain, heart and other vital organs more efficiently. This process can enhance the way you think and feel, as well as improving stamina and endurance, making physical activities feel less strenuous and more enjoyable.5
Additionally, beetroot contains high levels of antioxidants, such as betalains, which help reduce inflammation and oxidative stress to help your cells work better and recover faster. In this way, beetroot supports quicker recovery and sustained energy levels, allowing you to stay active for longer periods.
Remember, Movement Is a Powerful Medicine
Engaging in physical activity stimulates blood flow, improves the brain's ability to change and adapt, burns calories and supports the growth of new cells. Today is the day to get moving and embrace the benefits of Trivita’s B vitamins and beetroot supplements to fuel your body, boost your energy and keep moving towards a healthier, more energetic you!
Paul Bernitt, DHH Board-Certified Doctor of Holistic Health. Director of Wellness Services, TriVita, Inc.
When you hear “nitric oxide,” you might think of nitrous oxide, better known as laughing gas. While you might appreciate nitrous oxide gas at the dentist’s office, nitric oxide is quite different. Taking care to maintain plenty of nitric oxide in our bodies is no laughing matter, and you need to know why.
Doctors Robert Furchgott, Louis Ignarro and Ferid Murad won the 1998 Nobel Prize for medicine after discovering the importance of “nitric oxide as a signalling molecule in the cardiovascular system.” 1 In the two decades since, nitric oxide has been studied extensively and is even considered by some to be the most important molecule in the body due to its role in transmitting nerve impulses from cell to cell in every tissue in the body.
Heart Disease on the Rise Around the World
According to the World Heart Federation, deaths due to cardiovascular disease have risen 60% across the globe over the last 30 years. 2 The World Health Organization estimates that 1.28 billion adults over age 30 have hypertension , or high blood pressure, with only 21% having it under control.3
Statistically speaking, half of all men in the United States, and nearly half of all women, have hypertension. 4 What’s more, almost half of the adults in the U.S. with high blood pressure aren’t aware they have the condition 5 and, therefore, aren’t likely to do anything to improve their cardiovascular health.
While such numbers may not come as news to you, you might be surprised to learn that heart disease often has less to do with the heart itself than with the arteries and blood vessels throughout your circulatory system.
High blood pressure occurs when the force of blood pushing against the walls of your arteries is consistently too high. Vasodilation, or relaxation, of the arteries can
become compromised due to damage caused by years of uncontrolled elevated blood pressure, high lipids and glucose in the blood, and calcified plaque buildup in the arterial lining. Instead of the heart having smooth, flexible arteries to pump blood through, the heart has to work extra hard to force blood through narrow, stiff arteries, which can lead to serious cardiovascular conditions as we age. 6
What Does Nitric Oxide Do in the Body?
The best known function of nitric oxide in the body is its ability to help manage high blood pressure, but healthy levels of nitric oxide generate a wealth of benefits for a number of body systems.
• Cardiovascular - In healthy arteries, nitric oxide signals the vasodilation response of arteries. Vasodilation improves blood flow, increases oxygen in the blood and modulates blood pressure. 7
• Pulmonary - Similar to its function in the cardiovascular system, nitric oxide signals bronchodilator nerves to dilate, increasing the lungs’ ability to deliver oxygen throughout the body. 7
• Immune - Nitric oxide blocks virus replication, giving the immune system a better chance of fighting off symptoms associated with viruses, harmful pathogens and other foreign invaders. 8
• Cognitive - Studies have shown that a nitrate-rich diet may increase regional cerebral blood flow to the frontal lobe of the brain in older patients, an important factor in protecting against cognitive decline. 9,10
• Endocrine - This molecule has been shown to improve insulin sensitivity, which may reduce diabetes complications, and it is known to help improve other hormone functions in the body, as well. 6
How Do You Get Nitric Oxide?
The good news is that our bodies produce nitric oxide as naturally as we breathe, literally! Deep breathing in through your nose not only produces nitric oxide in the paranasal sinuses, it effectively delivers it down into your lungs. 11 Aside from your sinuses, nitric oxide is produced in the endothelial cells that line the insides of your blood vessels—all 60,000 miles of them.
The bad news is that our bodies produce less and less nitric oxide as we age , which can leave us with a lack of energy, high blood pressure and cognitive decline. By age 40, most Americans produce only half the nitric oxide they produced in their 20s. By age 50, nitric oxide production has decreased to only 35%, and it falls to a mere 15% of what it once was by the time we reach age 60. 6
Beets and B Vitamins Work Better Together
Beetroot is one of the most popular ways to supplement nitrates. For instance, TriVita’s Nitric Oxide Plus and Beetroot Gummies , with their natural nitrates, antioxidants and vital nutrients help boost blood flow and reduce inflammation. Add the metabolizing power of Alfred Libby’s Original B-12 or Super B-12 for converting food into energy and supporting red blood cell production, and you’ve got a winning combination for long-lasting energy.
With such a dramatic decrease in our bodies’ own ability to produce this crucial molecule, it is essential that we find other ways to get nitric oxide. Sadly, nitric oxide itself isn’t something you can consume; however, we can consume foods rich in nitrates, which the body converts into nitric oxide, as well as antioxidants, which aid in the conversion process.
The amino acids L-arginine and L-citrulline also produce nitric oxide in the body. L-arginine can be found in red meat, fish and dairy products, while L-citrulline is also available in meat, as well as legumes. Beets are also a wonderful source of nitrates.

Beetroot Gummies – NEW!
Nitrates for better blood flow — with the on-the-go convenience of gummies
Your Body Works Better with Better Blood Flow
Beetroot Gummies are formulated with 1,500 mg of beetroot powder to help optimize healthy blood flow for peak performance. They are sugar free, gluten free, vegan friendly and taste great with no earthy flavor.
One of the most significant advantages of beetroot is its high nitrate content, which the body converts into nitric oxide. Nitric oxide helps to relax and dilate blood vessels, improving blood flow and supporting healthy blood pressure. This enhanced circulation can lead to better oxygen and nutrient delivery throughout the body, supporting cardiovascular health and boosting physical performance.
Better Blood Flow
Beetroot is rich in nitrates that your body turns into nitric oxide, which helps widen your blood vessels, letting blood flow better. That means more oxygen gets to your muscles and organs, keeping them healthy and strong.1
Healthier Blood Vessels
Beetroot helps keep the insides of your blood vessels healthy by stimulating vasodilation allowing the blood vessels to relax and widen. When the blood vessels are relaxed, there is less pressure on the walls of the blood vessels, which lowers your chances of developing heart problems. 2
More Energy for Physical Activity
Taking beetroot before physical activity may help you last longer and perform better. That's because it helps your body use oxygen more efficiently. 3
Easier
Breathing
When you have beetroot, your cells don't need as much oxygen for your body to keep going. So, you can enjoy moving longer without feeling like you need to stop and catch your breath.4

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 PUFA’s as well as the best ratio of omega-3 EPA and DHA which reduces chronic inflammation—the root cause of most diseases.
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 protection. There are 100 billion neurons that
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.
Your essential health companion: Premium fish oil concentrate for heart, brain and joint support
Omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA are among the most important brain and heart health nutrients. When we’re young, omega-3s help brain development;1 in later years they protect against cognitive decline2 and throughout our lives they optimize brain cells for healthy function.3-5
In addition, according to the American Heart Association and the National Institutes of Health (NIH), omega-3s may help support healthy blood pressure and reduce the risk of heart problems.6, 7
Several studies also demonstrate the anti-inflammatory properties of omega-3 fatty acids. Research suggests that omega-3s may help relieve joint discomfort and reduce symptoms associated with inflammation.8
The problem? Most of us don’t get enough EPA or DHA.9
Omega3 Prime contains premium golden fish oil concentrate that is carefully formulated to be:
Potent: 1,000 mg serving is concentrated in omega-3s: 670 mg EPA and 125 mg DHA

This includes not only reductions in LDL cholesterol and triglycerides but also an increase in HDL (high-density lipoprotein) cholesterol, often considered the “good” cholesterol. 3
• May enhance weight loss: Studies suggest that the acetic acid in apple cider vinegar may contribute to a feeling of fullness, thereby reducing calorie intake while also increasing metabolism and weight loss.1

ALERT: CHRONIC INFLAMMATORY-RELATED DISEASE IS THE GREATEST HEALTH RISK TO HUMANITY. — World Health Organization
When asked by your doctor, “How are you feeling?” most people respond, “I feel fine.” But, are you really fine? Your actual health may not be as good as you think, because what’s really going on inside might just tell another story.
“The overall function of the immune system is to prevent or limit infection,” according to an article titled “Overview of the Immune System” published by the National Institutes of Health. It also states, “When the immune system first recognizes danger cue signals from the cells, it responds to address the problem.”
Inflammation is a function of the immune system, an essential survival mechanism that helps fight off harmful microbes and pathogens and repairs
damaged tissue. The National Institutes of Health states, “Chronic inflammation is not a specific disease, but it is a mechanistic process.” It is lingering or ongoing inflammation that weakens the body’s cells and tissues.
Today, health experts in organizations like Harvard Medical School, Cleveland Clinic, National Institutes of Health and many leading physician authors declare that chronic inflammation breeds a host of unwanted health conditions when it lingers and attacks healthy cells. Chronic inflammation that we may not be able to see or feel can be a dangerous silent killer.
“Most modern people are boiling pots of inflammation: hot, steaming, churning cauldrons of disordered, chaotic inflammatory responses, much of them due to food choices that perform poorly to human dietary needs.”
–William Davis M.D., Cardiologist and Author
Defend against the Silent Killer with Nopalea®
A clinical study shows that Nopalea helps:
• Support the normal and essential antiinflammatory function performed by the immune system
• Less reliance on pain medication
• Improve joint mobility, range of motion and flexibility
• Lower elevated at-risk levels of C-Reactive Protein
• Reduce inflammation
Inflammation: What You Need to Know
Experts at Harvard Medical School confirm:
Unchecked chronic inflammation plays a central role in some of the most challenging diseases of our time, including rheumatoid arthritis, cancer, heart disease, diabetes, asthma and even Alzheimer’s.
There are two forms of inflammation
Acute Inflammation
Acute inflammation is a normal and necessary process that allows the body to attack hostile invaders such as bacteria, fungi and other foreign substances anywhere in the body. Acute inflammation often comes on rapidly and subsides once the body has neutralized the threat and healed.
Common conditions that result in acute inflammatory reactions include:
• A sore throat related to a cold or flu
• Acute bronchitis
• Scratches or cuts to the skin
• Physical injury or trauma
Chronic Inflammation
Unlike acute inflammation, which is shortlived, chronic inflammation can linger, lasting months or even years after the initial threat. Chronic inflammation typically starts as an acute inflammatory response. However, when your body’s healing powers go into overdrive, chronic inflammation can occur. Alternatively, low levels of inflammation may be present even without the presence of an injury or illness. In this case, the
immune system launches an attack on healthy cells and tissues.
Causes of Chronic Inflammation
Inflammation is meant to serve its purpose and then resolve. When it fails to clear up, it begins to deplete the body of vital resources and sets the stage for further illness. Common causes of chronic inflammation include:
• Untreated causes of acute inflammation, such as an infection or injury
• Long-term exposure to irritants like polluted air, heavy metals, industrial chemicals and pesticides
• Autoimmune disorders such as lupus, rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and multiple sclerosis (MS), in which your immune system mistakenly attacks healthy tissue
• Many experts also believe that certain lifestyle choices can contribute to chronic inflammation, including smoking, chronic stress, alcohol use and obesity
Detecting Inflammation
CRP levels rise in response to inflammation. So, the more effective way to test for elevated inflammation is by testing for C-reactive protein (CRP). The liver produces CRP, and levels are measured through a simple blood test. Other common markers include erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and serum protein electrophoresis (SPE).
Risk of Lingering Inflammation
As touched on previously, in the last few decades, scientists have found inflammation to be a common factor in many chronic conditions afflicting Western populations. Inflammation is essential for health, but there is another side to this survival mechanism. Lifestyle choices such as diet, activity and sleep habits all can play a role in how chronic inflammation manifests. And, it’s fair to say that managing inflammation levels can contribute to health, healing and lifelong well-being.

The Fascinating Story Behind Nopalea®
The Secret to Strength and Resilience in a Harsh Land: The Seri People and the Nopal Cactus
The Nopalea story begins on a warm Mexican night as TriVita founder, Michael R. Ellison, sat by a campfire in the Sonoran Desert. Though he couldn’t understand the Seri language of the men around him, he began to feel a sense of awe and recognized that they must be talking about something they deeply revered.
Asking his translator what the men were saying, Michael learned that they were recalling the strength and resilience of their ancestors, ancient desert warriors of renown.
An Ancient People Thriving in a Harsh Land
The Seri name roughly translates to “man of the sand.”1 From their sacred island of Isla Tiburón, or “Shark Island,” to their fishing grounds in El Canal del Infiernillo, meaning “Little Hell’s Channel,” the place names where the indigenous Seri people lived bore evidence of the harsh environment in which they dwelt.2
Thriving as hunters and fishermen in an unforgiving land where the desert met the sea, the ancient Seri men were celebrated for their strength, endurance and athleticism. They were also brave and fierce fighters, protecting their people from the threat of neighboring tribes and even defending against European invaders in the 1500s.3
A Gift from God for Wellness
How had the Seri people survived for hundreds of years under such demanding conditions? That night by the fire, Michael was inspired to learn the secret of the Seri’s strength… A gift from God that would soon impact the health and wellness of thousands of hurting people across North America.
On the flight home, Michael’s thoughts turned to his beloved wife, Susan, and the painful effects of chronic inflammation that had plagued her for so long… and remembered his own health crisis that had left him with a death sentence and no medical solution. As he looked out the airplane window and considered the stories of the Seri — along with the promise of God to give us the green herbs of the earth — he thought to himself, “I believe that somewhere
in the Sonoran Desert, there’s a plant that will be prolific and allow sustainable harvesting” that will help fight the dangers of free radicals that may cause chronic inflammation.
“It is a gift from God, and how it was discovered is amazing.”
— Michael R. Ellison
Back in Arizona, Michael went to work to realize his dream of bringing relief to thousands of people living with the often debilitating effects of chronic inflammation. Teaming with university researchers, Michael’s product development team found the miracle plant they’d been believing for. It was the fruit of the Ruby Red Opuntia ficus indica... the Nopal cactus.
Betalains, Rare and Powerful Antioxidants
Each year, buds begin to appear across the Sonoran landscape, and soon after, the desert explodes with color as the Nopal cactus plants bloom with vibrant red flowers. By August and September, the flowers have given way to fruit… the Nopal superfruit that virtually bursts with antioxidants.
The rich, ripe fruit of the Nopal gets its vibrant purple-red hue from a rare and powerful class of natural antioxidants called betalains. Betalains help neutralize toxins in the body, help drain away toxic waste and, most importantly, help reduce the activity of enzymes known to cause unhealthy inflammation anywhere in the body.
The Nopal cactus is a known source of 24 naturally occurring betalains, making it one of the most powerful antioxidant sources in all of nature. This is because the Sonoran Desert is the most extreme desert in North America, and the Nopal plant needs these betalains to survive in such an inhospitable environment.
The result of this Sonoran saga is TriVita’s Nopalea, a delicious, antioxidant-rich wellness drink that has been clinically shown to help:
• Increase mobility and flexibility
• Reduce pain
• Improve quality of life
Wildcrafting techniques practiced by indigenous Sonorans were employed in the initial selection of which plants and fruits would be best for the Nopalea drink. The team quickly realized, however, that due to the intense desert conditions, a different method would need to be used to preserve the quality of the harvest between the field and press. Ultimately, sustainable farming methods proved to be the right solution for preserving the freshness and nutritional value of the fruit, resulting in the highest quality Nopal puree possible. See page 37 to learn more about the many health benefits of Nopalea.

The Army has Green Berets, the Navy has SEALs, and in the war against inflammation, TriVita has Promeric 95.
Turmeric is known for reducing chronic
inflammation, relieving sore joints, improving digestion, and supporting both cardiovascular and brain health. What few people know is that it’s a compound called curcumin that’s actually responsible for turmeric’s anti-inflammatory benefits.
What makes Promeric 95 elite is its BCM-95 CG™ formulation, which allows its curcumin extract to perform far beyond anything regular turmeric can do. Promeric 95 gets into the bloodstream faster, delivers more potent curcumin (and more of it) and keeps working longer.
3 WAYS PROMERIC 95 IS BETTER
1 2 3
More Powerful – The “95” in Promeric 95 means that 95% of Promeric 95’s composition is curcumin extract, far more powerful than the mere 3% typically found in turmeric powder.
Absorbs More Easily – Curcumin is notoriously difficult to absorb, with as much as 80% of an oral dose of curcumin simply passing through the GI tract unused. Promeric 95 combats this problem by micronizing the curcumin, that is, reducing it to such fine particles that they have to be measured in microns (one millionth of a meter). The smaller the particles, the easier they are to absorb.
Lasts Longer – Once the curcumin is in your system, essential oils in the BCM-95 CG™ formulation keep it there for an extended period, so it can continue to work longer than unformulated turmeric. In fact, studies have detected residual curcumin in the blood eight hours after ingesting the BCM-95 CG curcumin extract found in Promeric 95.
Whether we realize it or not, we are all in a war against chronic inflammation. Experts call it the greatest health threat to humanity, but you don’t have to be a casualty of this war. Combat the joint pain and stiffness, risk of cardiovascular disease and other dire health consequences of chronic inflammation with the Special Forces power of Promeric 95.
“Joints in my hands and fingers [were] so bad,.. I started using Promeric 95, and within the first bottle, I have noticed a huge improvement... I give Promeric 95 a 5-star rating.”
–Dawn L.
Outperforms Ordinary Turmeric in Every Way
Turmeric root is known to help:
• Relieve joint discomfort
• Inhibit joint inflammation
• Support joint mobility
Promeric 95 does all that… only better. Promeric 95’s powerful BCM-95 CG™ formulation makes its 95% curcumin extract clearly superior to unformulated turmeric powder.
3 WAYS PROMERIC 95 IS BETTER:
— Lonna L., Member since 2003 “
My knee was aching, but only one week after I began taking Promeric 95, I noticed a big difference. I highly recommend Promeric 95!”
1. More Powerful – The “95” in Promeric 95 stands for the fact that a full 95% of the product you’re taking is curcumin extract, making it far more potent than the meager 3% typically found in turmeric powder.Small, easyto-swallow soft gels
2. Absorbs More Easily – Promeric 95’s ultra-fine, micronized particles get more curcumin extract into your bloodstream and get it there faster.
3. Lasts Longer – Essential oil mixed with the curcumin extract prevents it from being broken down by the body too quickly, keeping Promeric 95 in your bloodstream for up to eight hours.

Ashwagandha, The Timeless Adaptogenic Herb
Statistics suggest that stress in America is on the rise, with as much as 63% of the U.S. workforce having considered leaving their jobs to escape work-related stress.1 According to a Harris Poll conducted for the American Psychological Association, the economy, our jobs and health issues rank among the top stressors for survey respondents.2 The World Health Organization estimates that 12 billion workdays are lost annually worldwide due to anxiety or depression, at a cost of one trillion U.S. dollars per year.3
With the ever-rising costs of healthcare and less access to in-person doctor visits, self-care is becoming a more important means of maintaining our physical and mental wellbeing.
As APA President Rebecca W. Brendel, M.D., J.D. states, “What’s promising is that many Americans are aware of their mental health needs and taking steps to improve their own mental health.”4
The Ashwagandha Plant, Withania Somnifera
Stress is not just a modern-day dilemma. People have sought solace from worry and anxiety for centuries. Since life began in a Garden, it makes sense to consider the plants that God has given us as potential sources for wellness solutions. One plant in particular has shown great promise in this area, both practically and scientifically: Ashwagandha.
Originally found in the driest parts of India, the Middle East and parts of Africa, Ashwagandha grows as a desert shrub. This hearty evergreen goes by many names, including winter cherry, Indian ginger and even poison gooseberry.
Traditional Uses
The ancient peoples of the Indian subcontinent used the plant’s roots, leaves, berries and even bark for myriad medicinal purposes.
The American Botanical Society says that the dried root and whole plant are used in Indian folk medicine and references the claims of ethnobotanist James
Duke, PhD, that various parts of the Ashwagandha plant are used as folk remedies for everything from hypertension and senility to asthma and hiccups.5
This ancient herb has garnered newfound interest in our day for its adaptogenic properties.
adaptogen - Adaptogens are natural substances, such as herbs and roots, that may help the body adapt to and better manage stress.
The Role of Cortisol
Cortisol is a hormone our body releases as part of the fight-or-flight response. When we feel threatened, our adrenal glands release hormones including cortisol
and adrenaline into the bloodstream. These hormones work together to raise heart rate, increase glucose in the bloodstream and help ensure your body can repair itself more efficiently.
cortisol - Cortisol is the body’s primary stress hormone, which is released by the adrenal glands in response to a perceived threat.
This natural process is helpful if you’re facing a dangerous or threatening situation. However, when your body is constantly in fight-or-flight mode because of work deadlines or difficulties in a relationship, chronic stress can lead to a number of health problems.
According to the Mayo Clinic, overexposure to cortisol puts you at increased risk for health problems such as these:6
• Anxiety
• Depression
• Digestive problems
• Headaches
• Muscle tension and pain
• Heart disease, heart attack, high blood pressure and stroke
• Sleep problems
• Weight gain
• Memory and concentration impairment
Studies have shown that Ashwagandha helps balance the stress hormone cortisol, which should be higher in the daytime and lower at night.7
Genetics and life experiences help determine how you react to stress. Regardless of your background or whether you’re able to change your circumstances, there are steps you can take to manage stress better. You may want to keep a journal, volunteer in your community or take up a hobby.6
As part of a healthy lifestyle, including a healthy diet, drinking plenty of water and getting seven to nine hours of restful sleep each night, you might want to consider taking an Ashwagandha supplement to help manage stress.
Several studies have supported the assertion that the herb may lessen perceived levels of stress and anxiety–even significantly.8
TriVita’s Ashwagandha KSM-66® supplement was developed to help reduce stress and to promote sleep and faster recovery. Unlike many other Ashwagandha supplements, the serving size of our formulation is 600mg, equal to that used in the clinical studies.
Studies of this KSM-66 formulation have demonstrated a significant reduction in perceived stress, as well as better quality of sleep and increased alertness when rising. Less stress and healthier cortisol levels could contribute to better overall health and a greater sense of well-being.
Our days are filled with things that cause us to feel stressed, from work deadlines to relationship difficulties to health worries. Chronic stress causes our bodies to release too much of the stress hormone cortisol, which can lead to health problems such as anxiety, digestive trouble, sleep problems and memory impairment.1
KSM-66 is the most studied form of Ashwagandha, having been evaluated in 24 “Gold Standard” randomized, doubleblind, placebo-controlled clinical trials.2 Studies have shown that Ashwagandha KSM-66 helps balance cortisol levels, which may reduce anxiety, promote a greater sense of calmness and enhance overall resilience to stress.3
Plus, this amazing herb does more than just make you feel better. It has real potential to make you truly healthier.
BASED ON 20+ CLINICAL STUDIES USING OUR RECOMMENDED DOSAGE OF 600 MG, ASHWAGANDHA MAY HELP IMPROVE THESE AREAS:
• Stress and anxiety relief 1
• Memory and cognition 2
• Energy and stamina 3
• Immune system support4

A natural remedy for relaxation and deep, restful sleep
Peaceful Sleep Gummies are sugar free, gluten free and formulated with 75 mg of valerian root extract 20:1 (Valerian pseudofficinalis), which is equivalent to 1,500 mg of valerian root, per dose to help you fall asleep faster and sleep more soundly. Well known for its ability to induce calmness and help alleviate stress, valerian root may also help reduce muscle tension. It’s also naturally flavored.
VALERIAN ROOT IS SHOWN TO HELP:
• Relieve feelings of stress and anxiousness: Valerian, a perennial herb native to Europe and Asia, has been employed for centuries as a natural remedy for various ailments. Its most celebrated attribute is its ability to induce calmness and alleviate stress and anxiousness. The herb achieves this by interacting with the gammaaminobutyric acid (GABA) receptors in the brain, promoting a sense of relaxation and tranquility.1,2
• Improve sleep quality: One of valerian’s significant benefits is its potential to improve sleep quality. For individuals grappling with insomnia or restless nights, valerian may aid in achieving a more restful night’s sleep. Studies suggest that valerian may reduce the time it takes to fall asleep and improve overall sleep quality naturally without the side effects commonly associated with synthetic sleep aids. 3
• Ease muscle tension: Beyond its calming effects, valerian possesses muscle-relaxant properties. This makes it a valuable tool for individuals dealing with tension or muscle spasms. By easing muscular discomfort, valerian contributes to an overall sense of physical and mental well-being.4

Healthy cholesterol level maintenance and support without toxic side-effects
Cholesterol concerns? Plant sterols may help. Also known as phytosterols, plant-based sterol esters are botanical compounds that mimic cholesterol. By occupying cholesterol’s “parking spaces” in the gastrointestinal tract, plant sterols may block LDL (“bad”) cholesterol from being absorbed and instead help to flush it out of the body.1,2 Cholestria supplies a high-potency 1,000 mg serving of plant-based sterol esters in each soft gel.
A more complete cardio picture
Cholestria Proprietary Blend complements plant sterols with a nutrient complex designed to support additional aspects of cardiovascular health:
Citrus Bioflavonoids Extract: Potent antioxidants beneficial to support lipid-lowering and a healthy cardiovascular system.3
Vitamin E: Supplies tocotrienols, multi-tasking antioxidants that help protect cells and regulate a cholesterol-related enzyme called HMG-CoA reductase.4
CoQ-10: Concentrated in the heart, CoQ-10 supplies fat-soluble antioxidant activity that helps fight the oxidation of LDL cholesterol particles.5 Also, statin use may deplete CoQ-10 levels.6
TriVita Tropical Blend: A complex of exotic botanical antioxidants from açai, mangosteen, camu camu and more may help support cardiovascular wellness.

CoEnzyme
Q-10
Premium potency for cardiovascular wellness and healthy heart support
CoEnzyme Q-10 (CoQ-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.

Getting to the Heart of Homocysteine
Homocysteine is an amino acid that helps create proteins and is naturally produced in our bodies. We require homocysteine and must maintain the correct levels. High levels of homocysteine may make your blood clot more easily than it should, increasing the risk of blood vessel blockages, which then lead to other health risks. High homocysteine levels in the blood can also damage the lining of the arteries, which can lead to a stroke, heart attack or pulmonary embolism.1 Homocysteine is normally changed into other amino acids for use by the body. Vitamin B helps your body use homocysteine. If your homocysteine level is too high, you may not be getting enough B vitamins.
circulation issues and Alzheimer’s. The good news is that homocysteine levels can be tested, and high homocysteine levels can, in many cases, be normalized through diet and vitamin supplementation. The most important nutrients that help lower homocysteine levels are folate, the vitamins B12, B6 and B2, zinc and trimethylglycine (TMG).2
Supplements are also a great way to get back to a healthy homocysteine level and to maintain that level.
Testing
Maintaining Good Homocysteine Levels
The complex metabolism of homocysteine within the body is highly dependent on certain vitamin factors. Deficiencies in vitamin B12, folic acid and vitamin B6 are associated with elevated homocysteine levels. Other factors thought to raise levels are poor diet, poor lifestyle especially smoking and high coffee and alcohol intake — some prescription drugs, diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis and poor thyroid function. The level of homocysteine in the plasma is increasingly being recognized as a risk factor for disease and seen as a predictor of potential health problems such as cardiovascular disease,
Your doctor may suggest homocysteine testing for early detection of vitamin B12 or folate deficiency, which may be signs of low homocysteine levels. A homocysteine test is a blood test that you can request as a part of your annual physical with your primary care provider. In a healthy person, homocysteine levels are around 5 to 15 micromoles per liter (mcmol/L). Nearly all of that homocysteine converts to other proteins. If you have more than 50 mcmol/L, the excess homocysteine may damage the lining of your arteries.3
When homocysteine is too low, you are not making adequate amounts of SAMe OR cysteine. When you don’t have enough homocysteine to recycle into methionine to make SAMe, you do not make enough methyltransferase (i.e., you are undermethylating).4

Homocysteine and Strokes
Elevated blood homocysteine concentration increases the risk of stroke, especially among hypertensive individuals. Homocysteine is largely affected by the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase C677T polymorphism and folate status.5
This does not mean that you are destined to have a stroke if you have elevated homocysteine levels; it just means there is an increased risk for a stroke.
How Do I Prevent a Stroke?
Stroke is the fifth leading cause of death for all Americans and a leading cause of serious long-term disability.6
You can help prevent a stroke by living a healthy lifestyle and controlling any health conditions you may already have.
Here are some tips to help reduce the chances of having a stroke:
• Choose healthy foods and drinks.
• Maintain a healthy weight.
• Don’t smoke.
• Get regular physical activity.
Stay Aware of Homocysteine Levels
• Limit alcohol.
• Check your cholesterol level.
• Control your blood pressure level.
We don’t hear a lot about homocysteine, but it is important to keep aware of your homocysteine levels by checking with a doctor to make it part of your annual blood work or getting an individual test. Supplements like HCY Guard with its complementary nutrients of choline, L-cysteine and CoEnzyme Q-10 may be very helpful.
Nutritional support to help lower and maintain healthy homocysteine levels
When homocysteine (HCY) levels go out-of-range, blood vessel and circulatory concerns seem to follow1—suggesting the importance of balanced HCY for heart health.
Why does HCY go out-of-range?
Among other reasons, low levels of Vitamin B6, B12 and folate are associated with unbalanced HCY.2,3 This may be because these three B vitamins are cofactors in HCY metabolism; they help the body to use and eliminate HCY properly.4 Unfortunately, some older adults have a harder time absorbing B vitamin nutrition and may fall short on the recommended intake for HCY support.5
HCY Guard is formulated with Vitamin B6, B12 (as methylcobalamin) and folate in precise ratios—supplying the right B vitamin nutrition to help support your HCY levels already within normal range.
The HCY Guard proprietary blend adds complementary nutrients for even more support, including:
Choline: An important cofactor in homocysteine metabolism6
L-Cysteine: Helps convert HCY into methionine, a beneficial amino acid7
CoEnzyme Q-10: Extra support for healthy blood vessels and circulation8
HCY Guard is presented in pleasant-tasting soft tablets that dissolve in the mouth. This step encourages absorption to help optimize HCY Guard’s nutritional support for your cardiovascular health.

K2 Complete
Help support your heart and vascular system
Protecting and nourishing our hearts with heart-healthy nutrients can help us stand a better chance against cardiovascular events. Created with Vitamin K2 and K1, discover the benefits of K2 Complete, a soft gel supplement for heart health.
CARDIOVASCULAR SUPPORT FROM HEART-HEALTHY VITAMIN K INGREDIENTS
TriVita’s K2 Complete contains three forms of Vitamin K: Vitamin K1 as phytonadione, Vitamin K2 as menaquinone-4 (MK-4) and menaquinone-7 (MK-7). Vitamin K2 and K1 are a group of fat-soluble vitamins widely researched for heart health benefits.1-5
Vitamin K deficiency can lead to calcification (mineral deposits) of vessel walls that has been associated with a higher risk of cardiovascular events. Vitamin K2 consumption may lower risk of vascular damage.1 It has also been found to be up to eight times more bioavailable than K1 and can remain active in the body for a longer period of time.2
Vitamin K1 can be found in plant-based foods such as kale, spinach and broccoli.
Vitamin K2 is often missing in the Western diet as it is usually found in fermented foods.2,3
Vitamin K2 studies have shown:
• If at least 32 mcg of vitamin K2 is present in the diet, then the risks for blood-vessel calcification and heart problems are significantly lowered.3
• High-intake of vitamin K2 was associated with protection against cardiovascular events.4
• Long-term use of MK-7 supplements improved arterial stiffness, which is related to high blood pressure and hypertension, in healthy postmenopausal women.5

Elderberry, Zinc + Vitamin C
Three key ingredients to support your immune system
The immune system has the tough job to fight off viruses, infections, colds and any other foreign invaders in the body. Our natural elderberry, zinc and vitamin C supplement is a 3-in-1 capsule that contributes to immune system health and overall well-being.
Discover the benefits of these powerhouse ingredients Elderberry, zinc and vitamin C have all been shown to support the immune system’s defense and are important players in enhancing immune response.1-4
WHAT DO THESE INGREDIENTS DO FOR IMMUNE HEALTH?
• Elderberry contains potent antioxidants such as anthocyanins that are responsible for its purple hue.1 Its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties have been used to fight cold and flu symptoms and reduce upper respiratory symptoms due to viral infections.1,4
• Zinc has been cited as the “gatekeeper of immune function.”2 Its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties help regulate the immune system.2 Zinc is so important that deficiency can lead to increased susceptibility to infections.5
• Vitamin C is an essential nutrient that is vital to the function of white blood cells. In fact, vitamin C has been shown to prevent and treat respiratory and systemic infections.3
WHY TAKING A SUPPLEMENT IS BENEFICIAL
Supplementation can help ensure you’re getting enough of these nutrients in your body every day. This is especially important as the “Western-style” diet may not incorporate enough of the essential nutrients our bodies need to build our immune defense.6 When it comes to immune health, preparation is key! Keep your immune system running at its best with the antioxidant properties in this supplement.

Navigating the Vital Role of Vitamin D in Strengthening Bones, Shielding Against Illness and Promoting Vitality
As the days grow shorter and a chill pervades the air, one vital nutrient often doesn't get the attention it deserves: vitamin D. While we may be well-versed in the importance of layering up against the cold, many are unaware of the crucial role that vitamin D plays in their overall health and well-being.
Exposure to Sunlight
Vitamin D, often referred to as the "sunshine vitamin," is unique in that it can be synthesized by the body when the skin is exposed to sunlight. But during the fall and winter months when sunlight can be scarce, maintaining adequate levels of this vitamin becomes particularly challenging.
But why is vitamin D so important? Well, it's not just about bone health, although that's certainly a significant aspect. Vitamin D helps the body absorb calcium, promoting strong bones and teeth, which is especially crucial as we get older and bone density decreases and the risk of falling increases.
Vitamin D Helps Support:
• Immune System Health
• Healthy Bones & Bone Density
• Muscle Health
Benefits Beyond Bone Health
The benefits of vitamin D extend far beyond bone health. Research suggests that adequate levels of vitamin D may also play a role in immune function.
So, how can we ensure we’re getting enough of this essential nutrient? While sunlight is the most natural source of vitamin D, it’s not always feasible, especially during the winter or for those who spend most of their time indoors. That’s where dietary sources come into play. Fatty fish like salmon, tuna and mackerel are excellent sources of vitamin D, as are fortified foods such as milk, orange juice and breakfast cereals. But, for those who struggle to get enough vitamin D through sunlight and diet alone, supplementation can be essential, particularly during the winter months.
TriVita’s Essential D™
Each Essential D serving contains 125 mcg of vitamin D3, or cholecalciferol, the same form of vitamin D your body produces, so it’s easy to absorb. With its simple one-a-day dosage in an easy-to-swallow soft gel, Essential D makes it easy to get this sunshine vitamin that plays such a crucial role in keeping us healthy and resilient, even through the darkest of days.
Essential D™
Easy-to-swallow soft gels packed 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
Being overweight: Carrying extra pounds may create vitamin D insufficiency risks.4
Essential D: Enhanced & absorbable Vitamin D3
DID YOU KNOW?
Just one soft gel supplies 125 mcg of Vitamin D3, the equivalent Vitamin D amount found in 50 cups of milk!8
Designed for easy absorption, Essential D starts with 125 mcg of Vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol), a bioavailable form that matches what your body produces naturally. The Essential D Proprietary Blend includes:
Broccoli powder: Supplies sulforaphane that may help regulate Vitamin D Receptor (VDR) genes.5
Olive oil base: Oil-based Vitamin D may be absorbed more efficiently than powder-based D.6
Vitamin D supports whole-body wellness:
• Bone density
• Immune function
• Cognitive health
• DNA repair & maintenance
THIS PRODUCT IS ALSO GREAT FOR:
• Muscle health
• Heart health
• Cellular metabolism
• Colon, prostate and breast health7

Blood sugar balance to help restore healthy glucose levels
Blood sugar balance influences how you feel every single day, affecting your vitality, mood, appetite, mental clarity and more. Many factors can knock blood sugar off-balance, including bad diet, excess weight, sedentary living and poor sleep.1
Blood sugar levels measure circulating glucose and insulin distributes this glucose, helping maintain the ideal balance. GlucoManage is formulated to help maintain healthy glucose levels. It’s built on a solid vitamin and mineral foundation and enhanced with the SugarSolver™ botanical blend, which includes:
Gymnema sylvestre: Ayurvedic herb that may enhance insulin’s performance.2
Bitter melon: May mimic insulin effects while helping to maintain normal insulin release.3,4
American Ginseng: May help blood sugar balance by supporting efficient carb metabolism.5
Cinnamon: May help blood sugar by enhancing insulin performance and slowing gastric emptying.6
Banaba leaf: Folk herb traditionally used for blood sugar support.7
Vanadyl sulfate: A trace mineral with insulin-like effects that may play a role in glucose metabolism.8,9
GlucoManage® Formula
#30340 $29.99

VitaCal-MagD™ K2
Calcium complex and vitamin K2 for musculoskeletal support
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
Calcium complex for musculoskeletal health
Featuring a premium calcium blend combined with magnesium, vitamin D3 and vitamin K2, VitaCal-MagD K2:
• Helps in the development and maintenance of bones and teeth
• Helps to maintain proper muscle function, including the heart muscle
Each serving provides:
• Helps in energy metabolism and tissue formation
• Helps in the absorption and use of calcium and phosphorus
Calcium (500 mg): VitaCal-MagD K2 features two types of calcium: calcium citrate and calcium carbonate.
Magnesium (250 mg): Magnesium plays a role in bone formation, bone mineralization and calcium transport and regulates muscle function.4,5 It also helps convert vitamin D to the active form in the body.
Vitamin D3 (12.5 mcg): The body requires vitamin D to absorb calcium properly. Too little vitamin D may result in soft, thin and brittle bones.6,7
Vitamin K2 (40 mcg): K2 may support bone mineralization and in one 3-year study, it was associated with stronger bones and improved markers of bone health when taken at higher daily doses.8

Bone Growth Factor™ Enhanced formula to support strong bones and help prevent bone loss
Throughout our lives, bone is broken down (resorption) and rebuilt (formation). In younger years, this bone remodeling process is balanced. But as the body ages, bone tends to break down faster than it is formed—particularly for women— leading to bone loss.1
Bone Growth Factor features MCHC (microcrystalline hydroxyapatite), an advanced calcium that mirrors what’s found in our bones and has been suggested to help with bone remodeling.2-4 Bone Growth Factor reinforces this broad-spectrum calcium nutrition with:
Extra bone minerals: Phosphorus, magnesium, zinc, copper and manganese.
49.8 mcg of Vitamin D3: Helps support MCHC and calcium absorption.
Vitamin K: Low K intake has been linked with bone breakdown (resorption).5
PLUS: Bone Growth Factor’s proprietary blend supplies: Ipriflavone: Phytoestrogen suggested to help maintain bone mass in women.6
Boron: Required for bone metabolism and may enhance bone mineralization.7,8

Improve mobility and flexibility with maximum joint nourishment
Super Joint Complex is giving you more of the beneficial joint support ingredients from the original formula so you can keep living an active life. With an improved formula, discover how the ingredients in Super Joint Complex can help reduce swelling and ease the stiffness of your joints naturally.
WHAT’S IN THE NEW FORMULA?
The new formula is a unique combination of therapeutic doses of both joint tissue building and anti-inflammatory ingredients. Glucosamine and chondroitin are found naturally in the body, but as we age these joint-building compounds begin to drop leading to a gradual breakdown of the joint tissue which can lead to discomfort and inflammation. Additional ingredients in the product include MSM, boswellia serrata, turmeric, quercetin and bromelain. These are anti-inflammatory, which can help the body heal faster.
IMPACTFUL NUTRIENTS FOR JOINT SUPPORT
Chondroitin Sulfate and Glucosamine Sulfate
• Clinical trials have reported a beneficial effect of chondroitin sulfate and glucosamine sulfate on discomfort and function.1
• Chondroitin sulfate and glucosamine sulfate have been recommended for the management of knee and hip osteoarthritis.1
MSM and Boswellic Acid
• MSM is commonly integrated with other anti-arthritic ingredients including glucosamine, chondroitin sulfate and boswellic acid.3
• In vitro studies suggest MSM protects cartilage.3 It’s been used in a number of combination therapies with positive results.3
• MSM in combination with boswellic acid was shown to improve knee joint function.4
