HEALTHY INFLAMMATION SUPPORT
In a healthy immune system, the normal inflammatory response repairs damage and protects the body. Sometimes, though, our body doesn’t respond as it should, sending the inflammatory response into overdrive. Stay ahead of the curve by supporting your immune system… and supporting your body’s healthy inflammation response.
INFLAMMATION CAN CUT “HEALTHSPAN” Want to enjoy a longer “healthspan” (years of healthy living)? Cut down on long-term inflammation. That’s what researchers at Yale University concluded after a study on inflammation. “… inflammation is causally linked to functional decline in aging,” said the lead researcher. “Causally linked” means that inflammation doesn’t just happen along with other issues such as mental decline and bone loss—inflammation itself may be the cause.1
FIGHT INFLAMMATION WITH YOUR FORK Emerging science points to several areas where food choices may help reduce inflammation. While research is still underway, there is agreement on these points: • Focus on fruits and vegetables
• Enjoy whole grains like brown rice and bulgur wheat
• Cut down on saturated and trans fats
• Cut back on red meat and full-fat dairy foods
• Get omega-3 fatty acids from fish, fish oil or supplements
• Go for lean protein like chicken
• Minimize refined carbohydrates in your diet like pasta and white rice
• Stay away from processed and refined foods2

Nopalea
Supports the normal and essential anti-inflammatory function performed by the immune system and can help lower inflammation.1 Nopalea is a delicious nutrient-rich drink originating from the fruit of the nopal cactus (also known as prickly pear) found in the Sonoran Desert. According to a study in the European Journal of Nutrition & Food Safety: “The fruit share some constituents as the stems, and contain additional unique polyphenols and betalain-pigments… 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 contain anti-inflammatory properties. Because the Sonoran Desert is the most extreme desert in the world, the prickly pear cactus 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. NOW AVAILABLE AS A DIETARY SUPPLEMENT IN CONVENIENT EASY-TO-SWALLOW CAPSULES.

HEALTHY INFLAMMATION SUPPORT
WELLNESS FROM THE SONORAN DESERT From ancient traditions to modern science
The Sonoran Desert is a wellspring of wellness, and the ancient peoples have known this health secret for centuries. They actually ate the prickly pear 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 prickly pear fruit that we can use to enhance our health, just like the traditional native people do. Do secrets to a long, healthy life reside in the vast Sonoran Desert—the most extreme desert in the world? It was this desert—straddling parts of North America’s southwest— that gave the world Nopalea. In fact, the Sonoran Desert is the second-largest ecosystem on the planet, with a scope of plant and animal life rivaled only by the tropical Rainforest. TriVita has a tradition of developing innovative wellness products, and the ingredients we use in our formulations come from all over the world. Yet right in our own Arizona backyard we found that native plants in the Sonoran Desert offer beneficial properties. We tapped the expertise of local botanists and the indigenous peoples to focus ultimately on the remarkable prickly pear (nopal) cactus and its fruit.
UNCOMPROMISING MANUFACTURING PROCESS From harvest to testing and bottling, TriVita maximizes product benefits Quality-crafted by experts Nopalea™ customers enjoy so many aspects of this unique drink: the taste, color and certainly its health benefits. But what many don’t know is the care that goes into ensuring the utmost product quality in each bottle. Aseptic manufacturing process After each Nopal cactus fruit is harvested, it is puréed into a liquid and transported in a refrigerated truck to our bottling plant in California. The aseptic (sterile) manufacturing process begins the moment the product enters the front door. Rigorous inspection During the formulation and bottling process, the entire “run” of Nopalea is inspected. It often takes at least five hours to test each batch of Nopalea. Freshness guaranteed You can rest assured that your Nopalea is fresh. When you open a bottle of Nopalea, that’s the first time it’s exposed to air. The proprietary bottling process used with Nopalea is untouched by human hands. To maximize Nopalea’s freshness, TriVita maintains refrigeration from picking in the field to asceptic processing. 6

BONE, JOINT & MUSCLE SUPPORT
As we age, we can lose bone mass and the elasticity we had in our younger years— and that can bring limitations. While many of us take for granted our body’s ability to move easily, for others it can be a struggle. Get the protection and strength you need to keep up with the life you live in motion.
BONE HEALTH MYTHS AND FACTS Misconceptions abound regarding weak bones—who’s at risk, detection and more. These common bone myths will help you separate fact from fiction. MYTH: MOST PEOPLE DON’T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT BONE LOSS.
Fact: About 4 in 10 women over 50 and 1 in 10 men will break a hip, spine or wrist due to weak and porous bones. MYTH: A PERSON CAN TELL WHEN THEIR BONES START TO WEAKEN.
Fact: Many people don’t know they have weak bones; a fracture can be the first outward sign. Testing bone density is the surest way to check for bone health. MYTH: WEAK BONES ARE AN INEVITABLE PART OF AGING.
Fact: Although there is some natural bone loss with age, there are many things you can do to keep bones strong and prevent fractures—at any age. A diet with enough calcium and Vitamin D, together with weight-bearing physical activity every day, can prevent problems later. MYTH: PHYSICAL ACTIVITY MAY HARM YOUR BONES.
Fact: Activity that puts some stress on your bones is very important. When you jump, run or lift a weight, the stress on your bones sends a signal to your body that your bones need to be stronger. New cells are added to strengthen your bones. Reference: http://www.niams.nih.gov/Health_Info/Bone/SGR/surgeon_generals_report.asp#f

VitaCal-Mag D
Are you storing enough calcium for your later years? Our bodies are designed to store calcium in bones, which can then be taken out of storage and used in later years. If we don’t store enough calcium, we may face increased risk for brittle bones when we’re older.1 This is one reason why getting adequate calcium as part of a healthful diet, along with physical activity, may reduce the risk of osteoporosis in later life.2 Getting enough calcium can be a challenge: • Many people fail to get the calcium they need from food alone.3
VitaCal-Mag D™
• Calcium absorption may drop by up to 20% in adulthood.4
Member $19.99
• Calcium absorption declines further as we grow older, just when we start needing more.5 VitaCal-Mag D starts with three key bone health nutrients that seem to work together to help build calcium reserves and support strong, healthy bones: Calcium: Seven types including microcrystalline hydroxyapatite (MCHC), which makes up 70% of bone.6 Magnesium: Plays a role in bone formation, bone mineralization and calcium transport.7,8 Vitamin D: The body requires Vitamin D in order to absorb calcium properly.9 PLUS: Vitamin K and bone minerals: Boron, 10 silica, copper, phosphorus, zinc and more.10 Help build your calcium reserve today with VitaCal-Mag D!
VitaCal-Mag D™ Quantity: 120 tablets
#30180
Suggested Use: Adults and children over the age of 12, take 2 tablets with food twice daily. Calcium supplements are better absorbed when taken in small doses (500 mg or less) several times throughout the day. WHY DOES THE BODY “STEAL” CALCIUM FROM BONES? Though it’s famous for supporting bones, calcium is also a life-essential nutrient. Calcium is so important, the body will steal it from bones to promote:11 · Muscle function · Nerve transmission · Circulatory health

Bone Growth Factor
Could your bones use an enhanced support formula? 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 broadspectrum calcium nutrition with: 1000 IU of Vitamin D3 to help 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 supplying: Ipriflavone: Phytoestrogen suggested to help maintain bone mass in women6

DIGESTION, DETOX & REGULARITY SUPPORT
Gut health is key to feeling healthy, looking healthy and being healthy. A properly functioning digestive system helps create a wellness balance, which enables your body to cleanse itself and stay regular. To be your best every day, get the digestive and detox support you need.
FUEL FOR LIFE: FOUR ESSENTIAL NUTRIENTS Everything we eat and drink has to be broken down into nutrients— and that’s the job of the digestive system. Before our bodies can use nutrients for energy, growth and cell repair, the digestive system has to process them into these four categories: Carbohydrates: These are the sugars, starches and fiber that we eat and drink. There are two types of carbs: “simple” and “complex.” We get simple carbs from fruits, vegetables and dairy products, as well as sugars added during food processing. Complex carbs are starches and fiber found in whole grain breads and cereals, starchy vegetables and legumes (peas and beans).
Fats: Fat molecules are a rich source of energy for the body and help it to absorb vitamins. Oils such as olive and sunflower are considered healthy fats. Shortening and most snack foods are sources of less healthy fats. Protein: Foods like meat, eggs and beans provide protein, which the digestive system turns into smaller molecules called amino acids.
E and K. The body stores fat-soluble vitamins in the liver and fatty tissues. Water-soluble vitamins, though, aren’t so easily stored; the body flushes out what it doesn’t need in urine.

STRESS MANAGEMENT SUPPORT
Stress can cause a multitude of issues in our lives, from lack of sleep to changes in eating patterns. Sometimes, we can make changes to reduce some of life’s stressors. But when that’s not practical or possible, TriVita can help you find your peace with stress support supplements.
5 TIPS TO TONE DOWN STRESS Feeling stressed? Fight back (calmly!) with these tips from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services:
• Plan your time. Write a to-do list, and do the highest-priority items first.
• Prepare yourself. Prepare ahead of
time for stressful events like a job interview or a tough conversation with a loved one. Picture the event in your mind, and practice what you’ll say.
• Use deep breathing. Sit comfortably
with your back straight. Breathe in deeply through your nose, exhale fully through your mouth. Repeat as many times as needed.
• Know when to say “when.” If you
choose to drink alcohol, keep it down: one drink a day for women, two for men.
• Get help if you need it. If stress stays
persistent or gets worse, you may need help. Talk with your healthcare provider, a counselor or spiritual advisor.

HEART & BLOOD VESSEL SUPPORT
Help guard your heart and you’ll guard your health. The heart keeps blood pumping throughout the body, so it’s important to keep this remarkable organ strong and the blood vessels clear. How? Eat right, enjoy exercise, don’t smoke and consider essential nutrients from TriVita.
KNOW YOUR HEART HEALTH RISKS Heart disease can affect a wide range of people, including both men and women, people in midlife and older, and even those with no history of symptoms. Fortunately, you can take steps at any age to protect and improve your heart health. LEARN YOUR RISK FACTORS
First, find out your own risk for heart disease. More than 95% of people who die from heart disease have at least one of these major controllable risk factors: • Cigarette smoking
• Overweight
• High blood pressure
• Inactivity
• High blood cholesterol
• Diabetes
LOWER YOUR RISK
Research has shown that people can lower their heart disease risk by as much as 82% simply by adopting healthy lifestyle habits. The “Big Four” heart-healthy habits include: choosing a healthy diet, maintaining a healthy weight, getting regular physical exercise and not smoking. But practicing just one of these is not enough; for a strong and healthy heart, incorporate all four essential lifestyle habits into your daily life.

HCY Guard
Guard your blood vessels 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 B-6, B-12 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 B-6, B-12 (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
-Cysteine: Helps convert HCY into methionine, a beneficial L 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. Extend your cardiovascular support with HCY Guard!
HCY Guard® Quantity: 30 tablets
HCY Guard® #30460
Member $23.99 Suggested Use: Adults and children over 10, take 1 slow dissolve tablet daily or as needed throughout the day. For best absorption do not chew or swallow whole: let dissolve in mouth or under tongue. FOLATE STUDIES CONFIRM HEALTH BENEFITS Folate has long been known to benefit prenatal health. However, recent studies indicated that folate may offer unexpected benefits—especially in the areas of mental and heart health.9 • Several studies have shown a connection between low serum folate levels and poor cognitive (thinking) function. • Low folate status has been linked to the blues. • Folate may help reduce cardiovascular condition risk.
Serving size: 1 tablet
Amount per serving: Vitamin B6 (as pyridoxine HCI) 10 mg, Folate (as folic acid) 400 mcg, Vitamin B12 (as methylcobalamin) 1000 mcg, Biotin 25 mcg.

Cholestria
Maintain your healthy number 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: B ergamot (Citrus Bergamia): Citrus flavonoids, including the hesperidin found in bergamot fruit, are potent antioxidants linked to 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. Help maintain your cholesterol already within normal range with Cholestria!

CoEnzyme Q-10
Support a healthy heart and more 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:

HEART & BLOOD VESSEL SUPPORT
HEART FAST FACTS You can estimate the size of your heart by clenching your fist; as for weight, this relentless pumping machine (it pumps 4,000 gallons of blood each day), weighs in at around 11 ounces. It takes 20 seconds for the human body’s roughly five liters of blood to circulate through the body. In one day, your blood travels about 12,000 miles. Your heart provides nourishing blood to nearly all tissues in the body, except the corneas. The corneas contain no blood vessels, instead getting their nourishment from fluids in the chambers behind them. If laid out end to end in a straight line, your blood vessels—consisting of arteries, veins and capillaries— would circle the globe 2.5 times. A red blood cell—responsible for oxygen delivery and carbon dioxide removal—lives an average 120 days. Red blood cells represent about half of your blood; the rest is made up of plasma, white blood cells and platelets.

Omega3 Prime
Premium omega-3 fatty acids Omega3 Prime is rich in two forms of omega-3 fatty acids: EPA and DHA. Growing evidence shows that these two forms are particularly important for heart health. In fact, the American Heart Association (AHA) recommends taking EPA and DHA omega-3 fatty acids to benefit heart health. The AHA recommends that people take 500–1,800 mg of omega-3 daily. Two Omega3 Prime soft gels meet the AHA’s recommendations.

WHAT CAUSES INCONTINENCE? Incontinence can happen for many reasons. For example, urinary tract infections, vaginal infection or irritation, constipation and some medicines can cause bladder control problems that last a short time. When incontinence lasts longer, it may be due to: • Weak bladder muscles • Overactive bladder muscles • Damage to nerves that control the bladder • Blockage from an enlarged prostate in men • Situations that may make it difficult to get to the bathroom in time Reference: https://www.nia.nih.gov/health/publication/ urinary-incontinence

MAINTAINING BONE HEALTH Falls are a common reason for trips to the emergency room and for hospital stays among older adults. You can help prevent fractures by maintaining the strength of your bones. Osteoporosis makes bones thin and more likely to break. This condition may also cause fractures in women past menopause. Remember, if bones are fragile, even a minor fall can cause fractures.
Bone Growth Factor Advanced formula for bones
TriVita’s Bone Growth Factor is an exceptional calcium formula for older adults seeking intensive nutritional support for bone density, healthy posture and overall skeletal strength. It features nutrients designed to help protect, strengthen and stimulate bone growth.

Importance of calcium At any age, you can take steps to keep your bones strong. Be sure to consume adequate amounts of calcium. Dietary calcium sources include: • Dairy products such as low-fat milk, yogurt and cheese • Orange juice, cereals and other calcium fortified foods • Dark green, leafy vegetables • Sardines, salmon, soybeans, tofu and nuts Another essential: Vitamin D Vitamin D helps your body absorb calcium. Exposure to sunlight can also help your body make Vitamin D. However, many older people don’t get enough Vitamin D this way. That’s why eating foods with Vitamin D and taking supplements can help.

Researchers have noted that “suboptimal” nutrient intake—which is above deficiency levels—may still be a risk factor for many health concerns. Suboptimal nutrient intake is common in adults, especially the elderly.1 Make VitaDaily your once-daily multi-vitamin for life.

WEIGHT MANAGEMENT SUPPORT
Achieving a healthy weight helps you protect your health and feel the vitality and energy to enjoy life. Don’t go it alone—with TriVita’s Leanology on your side, you can give yourself the advantage to reach your goals. Get smart about weight with Leanology, the Smart Weight Loss System.
PROTEIN: YOUR POWERFUL ALLY If you want to manage your weight or support lean muscle mass, focus on protein. Why? Because protein is the major building block of muscle—and the more muscle you have, the more calories you burn. Most of the energy that our bodies burn comes from the work that muscles do: they flex arms and legs, contract our hearts to pump blood and create waves in our intestinal walls to move food along. While meat in general is a good source of protein, it can be high in fat. That’s why experts recommend lean cuts of beef like top round and sirloin, plus poultry, fish, eggs, nuts, seeds and dry beans or peas. Older adults in particular need to be sure they get enough protein. With age, muscle loss can be serious: older adults who lose muscle in their legs and hips are more likely to fall and have injuries like broken hips.

WHY BMI MATTERS BMI, or Body Mass Index, is a number that helps indicate a person’s level of body fat. It comes from a calculation of a person’s weight in relation to height. (Visit cdc.gov for an Adult BMI Calculator, or ask your healthcare provider.) In general, BMI is used to see if you’re at a normal or healthy weight, overweight or obese. Why does BMI matter? Because it can be strongly associated with a variety of health problems. For adults 20 years of age and older, the weight categories are the same for men and women of all body types and ages. For example, a person who is 5’9” tall and weighs 169-202 pounds has a BMI between 25-29.9; that’s considered overweight. Even if two people have the same BMI, their level of body fat may be different. In general: • At the same BMI, women tend to have more body fat than men. • At the same BMI, older people, on average, tend to have more body fat than younger adults. • At the same BMI, athletes have less body fat than do non-athletes.

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.
BOOST YOUR ENERGY If you find yourself fatigued and lacking in motivation, put these energy boosters to work for you. Make room for magnesium: Low magnesium levels can make you tire more quickly after activity, according to a USDA study.1 Good sources of magnesium include leafy green vegetables, nuts such as almonds and cashews, peas, beans and whole grains.2 L ighten your load: Having too much on your plate can lead to overwork and burnout. Learn to say “no” and schedule some downtime. Take a walk: California State University researchers found that the more steps people take during the day, the more energy they feel. Other health benefits include improved mood, happiness and self-esteem.3 Begin with breakfast: Busy lives may tempt us to skip out on breakfast, but passing up morning victuals has been associated with fatigue.4 Hydrate: Mild dehydration, defined as the loss of about 1.5% of your body’s normal water volume, can zap your energy, and even affect your mood and mental clarity.5 References: 1 http://agresearchmag.ars.usda.gov/2004/may/energy 2 https://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/002423.htm 3 http://web.csulb.edu/misc/inside/archives/vol_58_no_4/1.htm 4 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18562170 5 http://today.uconn.edu/2012/02/even-mild-dehydration-can-alter-mood/

ENERGY, STAMINA & PERFORMANCE SUPPORT
ENERGY ZAPPERS Find out how many apply to you: Too much sugar—sugar provides quick energy, but too much of it makes your body “crash” and leaves you looking for more. Caffeine—it can keep you from getting a good night’s sleep. Too little exercise—exercise energizes us physically, mentally and emotionally. Without it, people are naturally more sluggish. Dehydration—we need water to flush out toxins, keep our tissues hydrated and keep our energy up. Lack of sleep—stress, illness, noise, light or certain medications may prevent you from getting a good night’s sleep. Clutter and disorganization— being disorganized or having too much clutter in your home can make you feel lethargic and lacking in energy. Insufficient food—excessive dieting can leave you feeling drained and sap your energy. Stress—conflict and stress will quickly deplete your energy resources. Lack of self-esteem—spending your time pleasing others and not taking care of your own needs can be a big energy zapper. ENERGY ENHANCERS Spending quality time with kids or grandkids, prayer, eating healthfully, focusing on the positive and expressing gratitude all will help enhance energy.

Over 50?
Chances are you’re B-12 deficient1 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.2,3 Signs of low Vitamin B-12 levels include weakness, fatigue, motor disturbances and a range of behavioral changes including mood and personality.4 Therefore, supplementing with Vitamin B-12 may help support mental clarity, focus and energy. You could have a B-12 deficiency if you:1 • Are over age 50 • Follow a vegetarian or vegan diet • Have had gastrointestinal disorders 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. KEY SIGNS OF DEFICIENCY
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) warns healthcare providers to watch their patients for these signs of low Vitamin B-12 levels:4 • Fatigue
• Anemia
• Weakness
• Tingling of the hands and feet
• Fainting
• Vision loss
• Shortness of breath
• Hallucinations
• Pale skin
• Heart palpitations
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.

CoEnzyme Q-10
Much more than just heart health If you feel low on energy, it may be originating from all the way down at the cell level. CoEnzyme Q-10 (CoQ-10) is a vitamin-like antioxidant found in almost all your cells and is a key element in energy production. CoQ-10 levels drop in the body as we age, potentially leading to low CoQ-10 levels.

NEW & IMPROVED:
VisionGuard VisionGuard starts with FloraGLO® lutein (10 mg) and zeaxanthin (2 mg): Botanical antioxidants that support vision health,1,2 but decline in our eyes with age.3 These two key antioxidants: • Migrate naturally to the eyes, settling in the lens, macula and “high-definition” fovea4 • Act as internal sunglasses, filtering and absorbing the sun’s maculadamaging UV rays5,6 • Replenish macular pigment, a protective retinal layer tied to crystal-clear vision7,8
WHY DOES VISIONGUARD USE FLORAGLO® LUTEIN?11 FloraGLO is the most clinically researched lutein brand in the world, as well as the brand most trusted by doctors. A perfect choice for VisionGuard, FloraGLO promotes vision health by: • Helping to defend the eye from free radicals • Potentially reducing the effects of aging in the eye • Helping to protect vision by absorbing harmful UV rays • Increasing the retina’s protective macular pigment • Reducing sensitivity to glare and blindingly bright light
VisionGuard extends the antioxidant network with additional eye-supportive botanicals:

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.”
IMMUNITY & THE GUT When many of us think of the immune system, white blood cells and other bloodbound players come to mind. However, it’s become increasingly clear that the human gut also plays a prominent role in our body’s defenses. Emerging research shows a strong link between the state of our gut microbiota (the bacteria that reside in our gut) and the state of our health. One theory explains it this way: gut microbes “talk” with immune cells as part of normal functioning. But when gut microbes are disrupted by such things as modern lifestyles, poor diets and overuse of antibiotics, this communication breaks down, potentially leading to illness. Researchers are hopeful that as they learn more about gut microbiota, they may be able to personalize therapies to treat certain health problems in the future.

HELP GUARD YOUR IMMUNE HEALTH Be stronger and live stronger with these simple tips for keeping your immune system working at peak performance. Keep a cheerful outlook: A University of Kentucky study found that when optimism decreased, so did the body’s immune response.1 Get some shuteye: Losing even a little sleep can increase your susceptibility to illness. In one study, people who got fewer than seven hours of sleep were three times more likely to catch a cold than those who got eight or more hours.2 Fill up your social calendar: Ohio State University researchers discovered that lonelier people have a harder time fighting off infection.3 Wash up: The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention states that keeping your hands clean is one of the best ways to remove germs, avoid getting sick and prevent the spread of germs to others.4 Get moving: In addition to myriad other health benefits, the National Institutes of Health reports that exercise also helps boost your immune system.5 Dump the drinks: More than one or two alcoholic drinks a day can suppress your immune system. Brown University researchers discovered that excessive alcohol is toxic to certain immune cells, affecting their ability to fight off microbes.6 Eat right: A balanced, nutritious diet provides generous amounts of immune-enhancing vitamins and minerals, including zinc. Ohio State University researchers found that zinc helps keep immune response under control by helping prevent runaway inflammation.7 References: 1 Segerstrom and Sephton. Psychol Sci., 2010; 21: 448.

Zamu Gold
Strong defenses for a strong body FOUR MUSHROOMS IN ONE FORMULA
Mushrooms are used to strengthen defenses, with 200 species believed to influence immune performance.1 Zamu Gold starts with four of the most renowned varieties: Agaricus: Supplies ABP-AW1, a polysaccharide suggested to enhance immune responses in early animal research.2 Cordyceps: Found to activate T-helper cells, which are key immune system cells for adaptive immune responses triggered by pathogens.3-5 Shiitake: Supplies Lentinan, a compound that appears to activate the immune system’s white blood cells, T-cells and NK cells.6,7 Reishi: Supplies “immune potentiator” polysaccharides believed to modulate immune function and enhance proliferation of CIK immune cells.8 ANTIOXIDANT REINFORCEMENTS
Daily immune system challenges unleash cell-damaging free radicals. Antioxidants help to neutralize free radicals while contributing to healthy immune cell function.9 Zamu Gold features: Cinnamon: Supplies high concentrations of botanical antioxidants and helps to enhance immune responses.10,11 Cocoa: Prized Aztec and Mayan botanical; now known as a rich source of flavonoid antioxidants.12 Camu Camu: South American superfruit helps replenish Vitamin C that declines during immune challenges.13

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.
HEALTHY LIFE, HEALTHY BRAIN? We know that exercise and eating right are keys to wellness—and they could help to keep our brains sharp, too. As the “control center” of our nervous system (including the spinal cord and nerves), the brain is critical to our overall function. According to the National Institute on Aging (NIA), continuing research is showing that this remarkable organ may benefit from the things we do for overall wellness. EXERCISE BOOSTS BRAIN FUNCTION
Some studies suggest that exercise may play a role in reducing risk for Alzheimer’s disease and age-related cognitive (mental) decline. And, exercise has been shown to stimulate the brain’s ability to maintain old network connections, and to make new ones vital to brain health. While the cause of Alzheimer’s or age-related cognitive decline isn’t yet known, the NIA notes that scientists are pursing the promising link between a healthy lifestyle and brain health. In the meantime, the NIA says, “People of all ages can benefit from taking positive steps to get and stay healthy.” Reference: https://go4life.nia.nih.gov/sites/default/files/Do_Exercise_and_Activity_Protect_Brain.pdf
