Good health is a gift to be treasured and nurtured every day. TriVita joyfully shares these keys to helping you experience wellness: the essentials for spiritual, emotional and physical health.
FROM THE FOUNDER
Michael R. Ellison
Our TriVita Members are amazing people! We get so many outstanding stories of greater wellness experiences. We share them enthusiastically every week with our employees.
Last November I made this commitment that TriVita would do everything it could to feature more VitaPoints every month in 2023 to help our Members create more savings. And, I am pleased to report that every month this year we have done that.
Now, for our wonderful loyal Members who want the convenience of order fulfillment and never running out of their daily regime of products, we are establishing 5X on every autoreplenishment (ARP) order. This is a significant savings every month for our Members. We are committed to being your trusted wellness partner to help you in every way to experience greater wellness…physically, emotionally and spiritually. And this November, I am making another promise to you! You can and will experience greater wellness in 2024. We are developing programs and new products with one thought in mind, a “Greater Wellness Experience” for our Members at any age and any stage in life. Greater wellness is my passion and the very reason TriVita was founded!
This month I also want our Members to seriously focus on immune health. A strong immune system is so essential, especially as we enter the fall and winter months. There is a mountain of evidence showing that high levels of vitamin D are crucial for immune health! Please know your vitamin D level. This is a blood test but worth the time and money to get it! Most adults are deficient; I want my levels above 70 and preferably in the 80s. Vitamin D is known as the “sunshine vitamin,” and it also is absorbed from foods many people don’t eat, like dairy and meat. Not only is vitamin D essential for immune health, it is a major contributor to bone health. Strong bones are vital as you age.It is very important to cognitive function and a good way to support brain health.1 TriVita’s Essential D™ is an outstanding product. See page 7.
1Ref: WebMD
I have to mention TriVita’s Vital C™ at this time of the year, as vitamin C is a workhorse vitamin that will help protect our health and help our immune system do its job. Again, in all ways, supporting a strong immune system is so important.
Vital C, either as tablets or in the powder form, is a great way to supplement, especially during the fall and winter months. See page 6.
You will see the products listed on page 3 for supporting immune health and, again, our way of giving you the opportunity to earn more VitaPoints and savings as you order with TriVita.
Again, my promise to you is, “You can and will experience greater wellness in 2024!”

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 Overweight. Carrying extra pounds may create vitamin D insufficiency risks.4
Essential D:
Designed for easy absorption, Essential D starts with 1,000 IU of vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol), a bioavailable form that matches what your body produces naturally. Calcium intake, when combined with sufficient vitamin D3, a healthy diet and regular exercise, may reduce the risk of developing osteoporosis.
Vitamin D supports whole-body wellness:
• Helps in the absorption and use of phosphorus
• Helps in the development and maintenance of bones and teeth
• Helps to prevent vitamin D deficiency

Boosting Immunity: Nature's Path to Wellness
The modern world has introduced new challenges and dangers, including those related to viruses, infections and unprecedented levels of toxins that can trigger weakened immune systems and debilitating chronic inflammation. Now more than ever is the best time to support a healthy immune system, thereby supporting healthy inflammatory responses. Here are some science-supported ideas to get you started.
1. Vitamin C
Antioxidants like vitamin C help protect cells from oxidative damage caused by harmful free radicals. Immune cells can be particularly susceptible to damage from oxidative stress, and vitamin C helps neutralize these free radicals, aiding in the proper functioning of immune cells.
Vitamin C is necessary for the synthesis of collagen. Collagen plays a crucial role in wound healing and maintaining the integrity of skin, blood vessels, digestive lining and other connective tissues. A healthy barrier is an important part of the body’s defense against harmful pathogens.
Vitamin C stimulates the production of white blood cells to help fight infection.1 Studies show vitamin C supplementation helps reduce the duration and severity of colds and provide symptom relief.2
2. Vitamin D3
Many people, especially older adults, experience a decrease in their vitamin D levels as they age. Studies have shown that vitamin D deficiency is associated with increased hospitalization of older adults, independent of markers of physical and cognitive frailty.3
Evidence suggests that vitamin D deficiency is associated with increased risk and greater severity of infection.4 Vitamin D helps modulate the immune system, reducing inflammation and promoting the body’s defense against infections.
Vitamin D2 (ergocalciferol) is largely a man-made synthetic form of vitamin D that is added to processed foods. When choosing your vitamin D, choose vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol), as it is the most bioidentical form of vitamin D to what is naturally synthesized in the skin.

3. Elderberry
Black elderberry fruit possesses powerful antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and antiviral compounds that can enhance the production of cytokines, which are signaling molecules that play a role in the immune system’s response to infections.5
Because of its antiviral properties, elderberry is shown to help reduce the severity and duration of respiratory infections, such as the common cold and influenza.5,6
4. Zinc
Zinc is important for the development and function of immune cells, which are crucial for cellular communication during immune reactions. Immune cells are integral to the body’s defense against infections, and they support healthy inflammation.7
Zinc is a cofactor for more than 200 enzymes in the body involved in immune function, DNA synthesis and cell division. These processes are crucial for the proper functioning of immune cells and overall immune system activity.8
Zinc is also a powerful antioxidant that helps protect cells from oxidative stress and damage caused by free radicals. Immune cells are particularly susceptible to oxidative stress, so maintaining optimal zinc levels can support their function.8 When supplementing with zinc, I recommend zinc gluconate for its immune-boosting potential.
5. Self-Care
There is no quick fix for building a strong immune system. It’s important to note that a weakened immune system is influenced by various factors, including poor lifestyle choices, environmental factors and genetics. Building and maintaining a healthy immune response involves adopting self-care efforts, including regular exercise, a balanced diet, stress management, adequate sleep and avoiding exposure to pathogens, toxins and pollutants.

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

Supports daily stress relief and helps to temporarily promote relaxation
Adaptuit is formulated from a source of adaptogens that promote daily stress relief and well-being.
• L-theanine (250 mg) - L-theanine is a naturally occurring, non-protein amino acid found in tea that promotes relaxation by reducing stress and anxiety levels.1

• Rhodiola (50 mg) - Rhodiola has long been known as an adaptogen, a natural substance that increases your body’s resistance to stress in non-specific ways.3
Used in herbal medicine:
• As a tonic to help relieve general debility and/or to aid during convalescence
• Helps improve mental and/or physical performance after periods of exertion

9 ESSENTIAL AMINO ACIDS: THE BACKBONE OF MYOHEALTH®
Build muscle the EAAsy way
With hundreds of companies touting thousands of supplements, how can you be sure that MyoHealth is any different than all of the other products that promise to build stronger, leaner muscle? Simple. With MyoHealth Essential Amino Acid (EAA) Complex, it starts with the perfectly blended mix of all 9 EAAs that go into every canister and the years of science that went into developing this formula.
What’s so important about Essential Amino Acids?
• Muscle is the main reservoir of amino acids in the body1
• Muscle needs protein to grow, but the body cannot produce protein on its own
• Essential Amino Acids are the cellular building blocks of protein1
• Muscle is always in a state of breakdown and synthesis, or “turnover,” which is an important process to get rid of old, damaged muscle fibers and replace them with new, healthy fibers1
• Muscle serves many important metabolic functions beyond supporting physical movement
MyoHealth contains the first U.S.-patented Essential Amino Acid (EAA) complex that includes all 9 EAAs. But, it wasn’t easy getting there. The formula behind our Essential Amino Acid Complex took 30 years to develop, cost more than $25 million in research and development, and underwent 25 human clinical trials, including NASA space flight and patient bed rest studies.
Available in a delicious, easy-to-mix Orange or Berry Crush flavor, MyoHealth powder includes:
• The daily recommended dosage of 3.6 grams of EAAs per scoop
• 20 or fewer calories per serving
• Naturally flavored
• Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS)certified EAA formula
I’m 73 years old, and I started taking MyoHealth Essential Amino Acids about six months ago after listening to Dr. Wolfe’s testimony. I’ve renovated my own house, put in a fence in my backyard and I work with my daughters cleaning houses every day. It’s important for me to have the strength and endurance I need to continue doing the things I love and have always done no matter my age. "

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

A Treasure from the Desert: The Nopalea Superfruit
Do creaky knees and aching joints sound all too familiar? You’re not alone. Arthritis affects more than 6 million Canadians — more than diabetes, heart disease, cancer and stroke combined. One in five adults across the nation deals with joint pain or chronic inflammation, and the numbers are on the rise.1
If you’re looking for hope beyond surgery, neverending pain medication or giving in to a lifetime of pain, you may want to try Opuntia ficus-indica, more commonly known as the prickly pear or nopal cactus.
The Nopal Cactus in History & Culture
Today, the nopal cactus with its fruit is a national symbol of Mexico. It appears in the national coat of arms and on the country’s flag, where a proud Golden eagle stands perched on a flowering prickly pear cactus. Both the green nopal pads and its colorful fruit are edible, and numerous recipes can be found on the internet. The pads may be cooked or eaten raw, as long as one is careful to remove the spines and barbed glochids. The fruit also may be eaten raw, though it, too, has spines, and it is often used to make juice, jelly and jam.3
Resilience in the Harshest Conditions
Native to Mexico, the nopal cactus thrives in the arid and semiarid regions of the Sonoran Desert.2 Discovered centuries ago by the Aztecs, this ancient Mesoamerican culture used the nopal cactus for food and medicine, as well as in their rituals. After Columbus made his way to the New World, sailors began using nopal to treat scurvy, and the prickly pear cactus made its way back across the globe aboard European ships.3
To call this amazing plant hardy would be a considerable understatement. Not only does the nopal cactus thrive in extreme heat and drought conditions, it also survives freezing temperatures and soil lacking in nutrients.
Another name for this incredible flora is la planta de vida, or “life-giving plant,” as even its fallen leaves become new plants.4 It is prolific, able to produce fruit year round, and an old Mexican adage says, “Whoever has a nopal in his house, will never go hungry.”5
It’s no wonder that people living in extreme desert climates looked to the nopal for sustenance.

TriVita’s Nopalea®
Supplement: Michael’s Story
On a trip to Mexico, the founder of TriVita, Michael R. Ellison, sat listening to the indigenous Seri people tell of their ancestors’ strength and resilience living in the harsh Sonoran desert . Inspired by the Seri’s tales and spurred by his own family’s needs, Michael pondered the thought, “Somewhere in that desert there is an amazing plant that will be prolific, and it will help with inflammation.”
Our Members
Love Nopalea
Every month TriVita Members tell us how much they love their Nopalea and how it helps them maintain good health and improves their quality of life.
TriVita Member Josette G. says, “The Nopalea makes my neck and joints feel better, I do not have any more pain,” while Carol C. tells us, “Nopalea helps me feel good, and I have more energy.”
According to Member Deborah D., “Nopalea helps, and I share it . My whole mental health and everything changes, and when I’m sluggish it helps me a lot. It also helps my emotional phase I am going through and helps with mobile skills.”
Arriving home, Michael began working with scientists at Arizona State University, as well as botanists from the Native American Pima Tribe, to study what they ate in the desert that helped them overcome inflammation. The result of their research and passion was Nopalea, a delicious, nutrient-dense drink made from the fruit of the prickly pear cactus.
Nopalea has since become one of TriVita’s best selling and most beloved health supplements.
Finally, Diane J. shares, “Nopalea is so good, I could drink the whole bottle in one sitting. I do not have any inflammation at 76. Nopalea helps me stay healthy.”
The Benefits of Nopalea
With daily use, Nopalea may improve your quality of life in these ways:
• Helping support healthy immune function
• Helping prevent vitamin C deficiency
• Helping maintain healthy bones, cartilage, teeth and gums
• Helping in wound healing and connective tissue formation
• Providing antioxidants for the maintenance of good health
Why wait another day to start feeling better?
Try Nopalea, a delicious way to support joint health and improve your quality of life.

Advanced vision formula to help you see life more clearly
VisionGuard is packed with eye-supportive antioxidants that help to:
• Maintain eyesight in conditions (associated with sunlight damage), such as cataract and age-related macular degeneration
• Reduce the risk of developing cataracts
• Improve macular pigment optical density
It all starts with FloraGLO® lutein and zeaxanthin: 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 macula-damaging UV rays5,6
• Replenish macular pigment, a protective retinal layer tied to crystal-clear vision7,8
PLUS:
Antioxidants alpha lipoic acid (ALA), N-Acetyl-LCysteine, Vitamin C, natural Vitamin E and zinc.
Why does VisionGuard use FloraGLO® lutein?9
The most clinically researched lutein brand in the world, FloraGLO® promotes vision health by helping defend from free radicals, potentially reduce the effects of eye aging, absorbing harmful UV rays, increasing the retina’s protective macular pigment and reducing sensitivity to glare and blindingly bright light.

CoEnzyme Q-10
Antioxidant support for cardiovascular wellness and maintenance of good health
CoEnzyme Q-10 is an important “bioenergetic antioxidant” that’s concentrated in the heart. The natural aging process may deplete CoQ-10, potentially leading to low CoQ-10 status. Statin drugs may also deplete CoQ-10. This “CoQ-10 drain” may affect your heart: Low CoQ-10 has been linked to diminished cardiac energy and cardiovascular health concerns.1-4
TriVita CoQ-10 may address these heart health concerns because it helps to replenish what statin drugs and aging may have taken away.5 By correcting your CoQ-10 status, you may promote this unique nutrient’s diverse range of cardio-supportive biological activities:
• CoQ-10 is necessary in adequate amounts for heart energy metabolism6
• CoQ-10 is a cardiovascular antioxidant that helps protect the heart and blood vessels7
• CoQ-10 supports the function of the blood vessel linings, potentially helping with circulation8
• CoQ-10 may help maintain heartbeat stability and the heart’s blood-pumping efficiency9
• CoQ-10 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.

ELDERBERRY, ZINC & VITAMIN C 3
1 Supplement for Enhancing Immune Response
With cold and flu season in full swing, your immune system needs all the help it can get to fight harmful microorganisms and keep your body healthy. Your immune system is responsible for defending the body from viruses, bacteria and other foreign invaders. If your immune system is weakened, you become more susceptible to infectious agents. That’s why we’ve formulated a product that incorporates Elderberry, Zinc AND Vitamin C, three crucial ingredients that create one powerful team to defend your health and well-being.
Elderberry, Zinc and Vitamin C have all been shown to boost the immune system’s ability to respond to threats. Each of these key players contribute to immune health in very specific ways, that when combined, create a formidable defense against symptoms of illnesses.1-4
Here’s what each ingredient contributes:
• Elderberries contain antioxidants that strengthen the immune system’s response to viruses, bacteria and other foreign invaders. Its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties have been used to fight cold and flu symptoms.1
• Zinc is a trace mineral that has been called the “gatekeeper of immune function” as virtually all immune cells are dependent on it. The properties of zinc help regulate the immune system so that it responds appropriately.2
• Vitamin C is an essential nutrient that has been shown to prevent and treat respiratory and systemic infections by enhancing immune cell function, such as in white blood cells. The antioxidant properties of Vitamin C protect essential molecules in our body from damage. Vitamin C also increases antibody levels, which neutralize pathogens.3
Crucial Ingredients Call to order Mon.–Fri.: 8am–8pm EDT/5am-5pm PDT 28
Why Consume These Three Ingredients For Immune Health?
Taking Elderberry, Zinc and Vitamin C through a dietary supplement ensures that you are getting the nutrients you need on a daily basis. These nutrients are essential for immune function and your overall wellness. Supplementation is especially important as the standard Western diet does not contain all the nutrients our bodies require.4
Older individuals are especially susceptible to infections due to immunosenescence and decreased immune cell function.3 Among this demographic, a deficiency in an essential nutrient like vitamin C is strongly predictive of all-cause mortality.3 However, older people have been observed to fare significantly better while in the hospital if they are taking supplements than if they do not.3 Because these nutrients are not created or stored naturally in the body, it is essential to supplement or implement them into your daily diet in order to reduce chances of infection.
Vitamin C supplementation has been observed to alleviate the severity, duration and frequency of the common cold.3 Older individuals supplementing vitamin C while suffering from pneumonia reported less severe respiratory symptoms and experienced shorter stays at the hospital.3 It can even shorten the time it
takes for a wound to heal, reinforcing your body’s ability to defend against viruses, bacteria and other foreign invaders from the skin level.3 Vitamin C has a myriad of benefits for immune function upon daily intake.
Zinc is essential for proper immune cell function, making sure that they attack the bad molecules in our body instead of the good ones.2 Zinc deficiency, an issue that affects nearly 30 percent of the elderly population, has been associated with imbalanced immune reactions causing chronic inflammation, allergies and autoimmune diseases.2 Supplementing Zinc can help basic messengers of the immune system, like cytokine molecules, efficiently attack the source of the problem instead of the body itself.2
Elderberry offers antioxidant properties that support the immune response to upper respiratory symptoms associated with common colds and the flu.1 This trifecta of ingredients creates a supportive team for immune response.

B Vitamins are Great for Brain Health
Vitamin B12, also known as cobalamin, is an essential vitamin. That means your body needs it but does not naturally produce B12. Therefore, the vehicle for obtaining B12 is through diet and supplements. B12 and all of the B vitamins are necessary for good health. Vitamin B12 plays a key role in cognitive function, supporting bone health, energy levels, normal function of nerve cells and mood. Vitamin B12 is a nutrient that helps to keep your body’s blood and nerve cells healthy. B12 helps to make DNA, the genetic material in all of your cells, and helps prevent megaloblastic anemia, a blood condition that makes people tired and weak.1 A nutritious diet that includes liver, clams, salmon, beef, tuna, fortified cereal and dairy products will help you get the correct amount of B12, but supplements are an easier and more helpful way to get what you need.
When it comes to brain health, focus on the three Bs: vitamins B6, B12 and B9. “These three types of B vitamins are necessary for the brain’s normal functioning,” says Dr. Agarwal, “and any deficiency in them may increase the risk of memory loss and other forms of cognitive decline.” The reason: These vitamins help to boost the production of transmitters, or brain chemicals, that deliver messages between the brain and body.2
Fortunately for you, TriVita’s Original B-12 (1000 mcg) and Super B-12 (3000 mcg) include plenty of B12, B6 and B9.
Vitamin B12 deficiency is linked to impaired cognition, memory loss, vision problems and dementia symptoms. You can learn your vitamin B12 levels by asking your primary care physician to check your levels during a regular checkup or when you get your blood work during your regular checkup. Some signs of vitamin B12 deficiency are:3
• A Pale Yellow Tinge to Your Skin
• A Sore and Red Tongue (Glossitis)
• Mouth Ulcers
• Pins and Needles (Paraesthesia)
• Changes in the Way that You Walk and Move Around
• Disturbed Vision
• Irritability
• Depression
A healthy diet and a good vitamin B12 supplement are very important for your overall wellness.

GET AN ENERGY BOOST WITH B12
So does vitamin B12 give you energy? The big-picture answer is, yes. While B12 doesn’t directly provide energy, it does give the body the tools it needs to convert food molecules into energy. Getting the recommended daily amount of B12 can, therefore, help ensure that the body is able to make the energy required to do everything you need it to do. Additionally, getting the recommended daily amount can help prevent some of the symptoms associated with a B12 deficiency, like fatigue or insomnia.4
B12 doesn’t provide energy like coffee does because B12 does not contain caffeine. The similarity between the two is that they both work with the nervous system. They both produce energy and decrease fatigue, but in very different ways.5 Vitamin B12 helps the body convert the food you consume into glucose, which gives you energy.6
Older adults are more likely to be deficient in B12, because your body’s ability to absorb vitamin B12 is reduced. A supplement is a great way to make sure you have enough B12 as well as other B vitamins.

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

B3 (Niacin): Converts food into energy, creates and repairs DNA, supports healthy cholesterol levels and maintains cognitive function.4
B5 (Pantothenic Acid): Especially important for breaking down fats, metabolizing carbohydrates and protein, and supporting muscle endurance, nerve function and cognitive function.5
B6 (Pyridoxine): Cardiovascular, brain and nerve support, as well as protein metabolism.6
B7 (Biotin): Converts carbohydrates, fats and proteins into energy and supports skin, hair and nails.7
B9 (Folic Acid): Protein metabolism, needed for making DNA and other genetic material for cell replication. Especially important during pregnancy.8
B12 (Cyanocobalamin, Methylcobalamin): Protein and fat metabolism, cardiovascular support, nerve fiber support, cognitive support, formation of hemoglobin and prevention of anemia.9
All these B vitamins work together and are involved in many of the vital functions of the body. Ensuring you get adequate amounts of B vitamins daily will enhance overall energy levels and vital bodily functions in every stage of life. Cheers to you living with greater energy, vitality and quality of life.

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