Organic Life Vitamins

Minimize

 

Organic Life Vitamins is an energy-packed multi-nutrient—more than a multi-vitamin. Organic Life Vitamins is a liquid revolution in daily nutrition—a new generation in multis! It’s a convenient, great-tasting and economical way to get premium nutrition your body can use every day.
 
The Liquid Revolution
 
No matter how good the vitamin or mineral supplements are that you start with, they are only as good as they are bioavailable. Supplements must be absorbed and assimilated into the body and be available at the proper area in order to be of use. All pills and capsules have to dissolve into liquid form before they can be absorbed and assimilated. Some people with weaker digestive systems (and digestive ability often weakens with age) don’t fully break these down and the result is only partial or no absorption, so the pill or capsule doesn’t do much, if any, good.
 
At Natural Vitality we begin with liquid. There is nothing to break down. The nutrients are naturally engineered for bioavailability. For those who have trouble swallowing pills and capsules, a liquid avoids this problem altogether. You also get fast action, as you don’t have to wait for supplements to be digested.
 
Organic Life Vitamins is a food-based blend of
 
24 Organic Fruits and Veggies
 
Fruits and vegetables are fundamental nutritional factors in a healthy diet. OLV incorporates organic superfruits (pomegranate, açaí, goji and noni) and fruits (apple, banana, blackberry, blueberry, cranberry, mango, orange, pineapple, raspberry, strawberry and tart cherry), plus organic vegetables (beets, broccoli, carrot, collard greens, kale, peas, pumpkin, spinach and tomato). We took extra care to use organic produce to ensure no pesticide, herbicide or fungicide residues, chemical fertilizers or genetically modified ingredients were included in our formula.
 
Organic ACTIValoe® Aloe Vera
 
This top-of-the-line aloe vera is guaranteed to retain biological activity. Aloe is a source of more than 200 beneficial active compounds, providing, among other things, a food-based organic source of naturally occurring vitamins, minerals, amino acids and enzymes.
 
Essential Vitamins
 
Organic Life Vitamins provides a range of important vitamins including A, B vitamins, C, D and E.
 
ConcenTrace® Trace Mineral Complex
 
Organic Life Vitamins features a top-quality full spectrum of ionic (having molecular charge that allows the element to easily bond with water) trace minerals in a low-sodium formulation, many times more powerful than other liquid trace minerals.
 
Trace minerals help assimilate vitamins and have a host of other benefits, from increased energy and vitality to supporting circulatory health, bones and joints and providing nourishment for hair and skin.
 
Amino Acids
 
An exciting plus that comes as part of Organic Life Vitamins is the incorporation of the Natural Vitality Amino Acids Blend. Amino acids are known as the “building blocks” of the body.
 
OptiMSM®
 
Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) is a naturally occurring sulfur compound that supports healthy, active lifestyles and benefits multiple structures and functions within the body, including connective tissues and the respiratory system. OptiMSM is premium distilled MSM manufactured to the most stringent product specifications and rigorously third-party tested to ensure purity. Clinical research confirms that OptiMSM is effective.
 
Chromium Picolinate
 
Chromium is essential for a healthy metabolism, especially as you get older. It helps promote healthy blood sugar, fight food cravings and support heart health. USDA research indicates that the average American’s diet doesn’t provide enough of this essential nutrient.
 
Selenium SeLECT®
 
Selenium is an essential trace element and a high-powered antioxidant that can help neutralize “free radicals” that may lead to severe cell damage. Selenium SeLECT is a clinically proven organic compound that is rapidly and completely absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract, unlike inorganic forms of selenium.

Natural Calm.
Magnesium and calcium are fundamental nutrients that need to be in balance with each other in order for you to fully experience good health. Their importance on a cellular level is critical. Calcium and magnesium are like opposite sides of a coin. Calcium excites nerves, while magnesium calms them down. Calcium makes muscles contract. Magnesium is necessary for muscles to relax. Calcium is needed for blood clotting, but magnesium keeps the blood flowing freely.
 
Calcium & Magnesium:
A Matter of Balance
 
You experience the tensing (calcium) and relaxing (magnesium) interaction of these two elements each time your heart beats, when you feel your pulse, and every time you breathe.
 
When we are under stress, our cells—which in their resting state contain magnesium—go through a change. Calcium, normally outside the cells, enters the cells and the calcium level becomes high. This is the action state in which a muscle cell, for example, will contract and tense the muscle. The magnesium then pushes the calcium out of the cell and the cell is again in its resting, relaxed state. Think of it as an on-off switch. The “off” is magnesium and the “on” is calcium.
 
But what happens to a cell that is not in balance—where the magnesium level in the body is deficient?
 
In simple terms, the “off” switch doesn’t fully turn off. That means calcium can continuously leak into the cells and stimulate cell activity (the “on” switch). The result is stress accompanied by one or more of the magnesium deficiency symptoms.
 
Magnesium helps your muscles and nerves function properly; it keeps your heart rhythm steady, supports a healthy immune system and also assists in keeping your bones strong. This essential mineral helps regulate blood sugar levels, promotes normal blood pressure and is required for producing and storing energy. It’s easy to see why many researchers say that no single dietary factor is as critical as magnesium.
 
Calcium—Too Much of a Good Thing?
 
Calcium deficiency can be a serious issue. It is an important nutrient your body needs every day, but too much calcium can also be a problem.
 
The recommended adequate intake of calcium according to the National Institutes of Health, Office of Dietary Supplements, is 1,000 mg for adults aged 19–50 and 1,200 mg for 51 plus. There are many adults who are taking 1,200–1,500 mg of supplemental calcium in addition to their dietary intake of calcium (an 8 oz cup of low-fat fruit yogurt contains 345 mg of calcium and one cup of nonfat milk contains 306 mg). Unassimilated calcium can end up in the soft tissues of the body where it deposits and hardens (calcifies) or in the urine where it may result in kidney stones.
 
Unless calcium and magnesium are properly balanced, magnesium becomes depleted (too much calcium can itself deplete magnesium levels). This can result in an inability to quickly recover from stress and can itself be a source of stress.
 
 
 
Do You Have a Healthy Magnesium Level?
 
Most people don’t get enough magnesium, including many who already take magnesium. There are two reasons for this: the amount of magnesium required by the body is greater than people think and many magnesium capsules and tablets are not completely absorbed by the body.
 
Magnesium deficiency can be caused by a number of stresses on the body, including—but not limited to—lack of adequate dietary magnesium, emotional stress, some drugs (diuretics, antibiotics, oral contraceptives, insulin, cortisone), heavy exercise, diabetes, gastrointestinal disorders and too much calcium in the diet.

Energy - 28
Energy begins with a balanced diet, with the body assimilating life-giving nutrients from the soil, processed into edible forms by plants. Because our diets are generally lacking in high-quality nutrients, we often turn to sugar and caffeine for quick energy at the expense of the health and sustained energy we could obtain from true nutrients. When the body is well nourished, a person is less likely to be depressed and more likely to have adequate energy levels. Energy28 was created to deliver supplemental natural energy from whole-food and natural sources.
 
Golden Chlorella Omega
NUTRIENT-DENSE GREEN FOOD
 
Golden Chlorella™ Omega is an ultra-pure microalgae, sustainably grown in the USA without chemicals. It is a complete nutrient-dense green food: 1,000 mg contain 500 mg of heart-healthy omega 3-6-9 and 200 mg of fiber, along with naturally occurring vitamins, minerals, amino acids and micronutrients.
 
Golden Chlorella is a key ingredient in Energy28. It is a unique nutrient-dense, ultra-pure, mild-tasting microalgae that provides naturally occurring amino acids, vitamins and minerals. It is a complete functional food containing 50 percent heart-healthy omega 3, 6 and 9 oils by weight and 20 percent dietary fiber. It is non-GMO and grown sustainably and locally in the USA without pesticides or herbicides.
 
24 Organic Fruits and Veggies
 
Fruits and vegetables are the fundamental nutritional factors in a healthy diet. Energy28 incorporates 13 organic superfruits (pomegranate, açaí, goji and noni) and fruits (tart cherry, raspberry, strawberry, cranberry, banana, blueberry, apple, aronia berry and sweet cherry), plus 11 organic vegetables and sprouts (carrot, pumpkin, pea, spinach, tomato, broccoli, broccoli sprouts, onion sprouts, daikon radish, kale and alfalfa). We took extra care to use organic produce to ensure no pesticide, herbicide or fungicide residues, chemical fertilizers or genetically modified ingredients were included in our formula.
 
Organic Maca
 
Peruvian maca is a root vegetable, shaped like a radish, that grows high in the harsh climate of the Andes Mountains in South America at elevations up to 15,000 feet. Native Peruvians have used maca for more than two millennia. A high-energy food, maca is rich in nutritional content, including amino acids and natural vitamins as well as calcium, magnesium, potassium and other minerals. We use organic maca in Energy28.
 
Bioenergy Ribose
 
D-ribose (ribose) is used by all the body’s cells and is essential in energy metabolism. Our bodies make it innately, but our cells lack the ability to produce it fast enough or in sufficient quantity to effectively satisfy the loss of energy from our cells. That is why supplementing the body’s natural processes with ribose can be so beneficial.
 
Bioenergy Ribose, the premium D-ribose we use in Energy28, is a patented supplement that is clinically proven, naturally certified and has FDA GRAS (generally recognized as safe) approval.
 
Rhodiola
 
Rhodiola rosea (also known as Arctic root or golden root) has been a popular plant in traditional medical systems in Russia and Scandinavian countries for centuries, with a reputation for stimulating the nervous system, enhancing work performance and eliminating fatigue.
 
Multiple Uses
 
Each packet of Energy28 supplies 1,525 mg of nutrient-rich whole food plus D-ribose and rhodiola for energy support. It can be used every day, at work, for sports applications and anytime you need an energy boost. Sip it right from the pack or add to a water bottle. We demand a lot from our bodies. Give yours the nutrient support it needs and feel the difference.*

 
NutraRev
Starting in our twenties, our health and fitness is more subject to the effects of gravity, the environment, cellular changes, wear and tear and poor diet. These accumulate and, over time, become what we commonly call aging. The good news, however, is that an increasing amount of scientific evidence suggests we may be able to slow down this process.
 
Of key interest is a group of dietary supplements called antioxidants, which help to protect the body against free-radical damage. According to the free-radical theory of aging, these are “free” electrons that have broken loose from their attachment to the nuclei of oxygen atoms during the cellular energy-making process. They damage cells in an organism by stealing electrons in an effort to become stable, which (along with increases in free radicals caused by lifestyle and environmental factors) is said to result in many undesirable effects of aging. The “oxidative stress” caused to tissues by free radicals can be compared to oxidation of iron or steel that leads to rusting.** (You can easily read more about antioxidants and free radicals or consult with your doctor.)
 
With NutraRev! we have simply gathered many of the most popular antioxidants and created a combination of premium-quality and brand-name ingredients in a convenient and economical fresh natural-berry-flavor liquid dietary supplement.
 
The Liquid Revolution
 
No matter how good the vitamin or mineral supplement is that you start with, it is only as good as it is bioavailable. A supplement must be absorbed and assimilated into the body and be available at the proper area in order to be of use. All pills and capsules have to dissolve into liquid form before they can be absorbed and assimilated. Some people with weaker digestive systems (and digestive ability often weakens with age) don’t fully break these down and the result is only partial or no absorption, so the pill or capsule doesn’t do much, if any, good.

For those who have trouble taking pills and capsules, a liquid avoids this problem altogether. You also get fast action, as you don’t have to wait for supplements to be digested.
 
NutraRev! combines high-antioxidant fruits with other powerful antioxidants as well as vitamins B6, C and E to protect against free radical activity.
 
Whole-Food Antioxidants
 
We start with whole-food antioxidants in Natural Vitality’s Super Fruit and Berry Antioxidant Blend of açaí, goji, mangosteen, grape, grapeseed, wild blueberry, raspberry, raspberry seed, cranberry, prune, tart cherry, wild bilberry and strawberry.
 
POMELLA® Pomegranate
 
Pomegranate stands out because it has been shown to exhibit greater antioxidant properties than green tea, red wine and blueberry juice, among others. POMELLA Extract is a unique culmination of extensive university research that compared many different varieties of pomegranates for antioxidant properties and bioavailability. We selected POMELLA for its controlled production from orchard to patented extraction process, resulting in superior bioavailability. Simply put—all pomegranate juice is not the same.
 
NutraRev! Supplement FactsBioenergy Ribose™
 
D-ribose (ribose) is used by all the body’s cells and is essential in energy metabolism. Our bodies make it naturally, but our cells lack the ability to produce it fast enough or in sufficient quantity to effectively satisfy the loss of energy from our cells. That is why supplementing the body’s natural processes with ribose can be so beneficial.
 
Bioenergy Ribose is a patented premium supplement that is clinically proven, naturally certified and has FDA GRAS (generally recognized as safe) approval.
 
Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA)
 
Alpha lipoic acid is a fatty acid found naturally inside every cell of the body. It plays a crucial role in the energy producing structures of the cells. ALA is a strong and versatile antioxidant, but only when there is an excess beyond what is needed to maintain metabolic activity. This helps explain the value of alpha lipoic acid supplementation.
 
Acetyl-L-Carnitine (ALC)
 
ALC is a modified amino acid which, like alpha lipoic acid, enhances energy production in the cells. While not itself an antioxidant, ALC works well in combination with alpha lipoic acid and is believed to be beneficial to optimal neurological function.
 
SolQ10BLUE™ CoQ-10
 
CoQ-10 is a vitaminlike substance manufactured by all cells in the body. It also plays a crucial role in energy production and is one of the body’s most powerful antioxidants. Unfortunately, scientists say the production of CoQ-10 slows down with age (starting at age twenty, with a more accelerated drop after forty). We chose SolQ10BLUE because of its water solubility, superior bioavailability and lack of emulsifiers (chemical additives).

Kids Natural Calm Multi
Our children deserve the best. Good nutrition is a cornerstone of good health and vital for proper development. The objective in creating Kids Natural Calm Multi was to combine the beneficial effects of magnesium with a comprehensive premium multi to provide children with key nutrients missing from their diets.
 
24 Organic Fruits and Veggies
 
As we know, fruits and vegetables are fundamental nutritional factors in a healthy diet. Kids Natural Calm Multi incorporates superfruits (organic pomegranate, açaí, goji and noni) and fruits (tart cherry, raspberry, strawberry, cranberry, banana, blueberry, apple, aronia berry and sweet cherry), plus vegetables and sprouts (carrot, pumpkin, pea, spinach, tomato, broccoli, broccoli sprout powder, onion sprouts, daikon radish, kale and alfalfa). We took extra care to use organic produce to ensure no pesticide, herbicide or fungicide residues, chemical fertilizers or genetically modified ingredients were included in our formula.
 
Omega-3 DHA & EPA
 
Technically, docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) are biologically active omega-3 fatty acids. They are basic building blocks in cells and are needed throughout the entire body for good health. As children grow and develop, they require these fatty acids as essential components in their diets. Omega-3 DHA and EPA are an integral part of cell membranes and precursors of several important cellular messengers. DHA has been recognized as necessary for brain, visual and nervous system health and development.
 
The fish oil used in Kids Natural Calm Multi is sourced from the purest wild sardine and anchovy, fished in cold, pristine waters off South America where there are significantly less environmental impurities. It is the product of a healthy, fully sustainable fishery and is a renewable resource.
 
Calcium and Magnesium Balance
MAGNESIUM-DEFICIENT KIDS
 
It’s not just adults who can get anxious because of magnesium-deficient diets. Our children are also susceptible when their favorite foods are magnesium-deficient—hot dogs, pizza, and soda. The stress in their lives—from peer pressure, academic and athletic performance pressures, worries about body image, the changes and hormonal fluctuations of puberty, exposure to negative events and violence through the media—also contributes. Even playing in a band can be a risk factor! Children are underdiagnosed when it comes to magnesium deficiency, but they can have magnesium deficiencies for the same reasons as adults.

Lots of Good Stuff
 
Kids Natural Calm Multi includes super-soluble, bioavailable calcium, vitamins, ConcenTrace® minerals, amino acids, and DMAE (dimethylaminoethanol)—a substance naturally produced in small amounts in the brain that supports improved mental focus.
 
Organic Flavor
 
Kids will like the organic orange splash flavor, sweetened with organic stevia and organic agave.


 

 
Ostemo Cal
We hear a lot about calcium and how important it is to our bones. But what we don’t hear is that the balance of calcium and magnesium is a critical factor not only to bone health but to overall health in general. Magnesium helps the body absorb and transport calcium into the bones and makes bones stronger and more flexible. Approximately 50 percent of total body magnesium is found in bone.
 
According to the National Institutes of Health, Office of Dietary Supplements, “Some evidence suggests that magnesium deficiency may be an additional risk factor for postmenopausal osteoporosis. This may be due to the fact that magnesium alters calcium metabolism and the hormones that regulate calcium. Several human studies have suggested that magnesium supplementation may improve bone mineral density to a greater degree than a lower magnesium intake. Diets that provide recommended levels of magnesium are beneficial for bone health.”**
 
Many experts agree that the majority of the population don’t meet the minimum daily requirement for magnesium in their everyday diets. Magnesium supplementation is the way to balance calcium intake (from diet and/or dietary supplements) and to maintain a healthy level of magnesium—required for over 300 of the body’s biochemical processes. It is important to note that this applies to both women and men. Statistically, one in two women and one in four men over age 50 will have an osteoporosis-related fracture in their future. The total annual bill for osteoporotic fractures alone is estimated to be $30 billion.

No matter how good the vitamins or mineral supplements are that you start with, they are only as good as they are bioavailable. Supplements must be absorbed and assimilated into the body and be available at the proper area in order to be of use.

For those who have trouble taking pills and capsules, a liquid avoids this problem altogether. You also get fast action, as you don’t have to wait for supplements to be digested.
 
Premium Quality Ingredients
 
Osteo Calm is designed around top brand-name ingredients. We use GloCal® calcium. It has solubility (which means it goes into solution in liquid) and bioavailability significantly superior to many other forms of calcium, such as calcium carbonate.
 
Our magnesium is Natural Calm®, the best-selling magnesium in the natural products market for three years running. It also is super soluble (both Natural Calm and GloCal will go clear when mixed in water)and has excellent bioavailability.
 
Vitamins to Support Bone Health
 
Osteo Calm Supplement FactsAlong with vitamins A, C, B6 and folic acid, two vitamins stand out as having an important role in bone health.
 
Vitamin D3 is essential for the efficient use of calcium by the body. According to the National Coalition for Osteoporosis and Related Bone Diseases, “Vitamin D is necessary for the absorption of calcium….For bone health in particular, calcium partners with vitamin D; a deficiency of either can contribute to the mechanism of bone loss.”
 
Vitamin K2 is needed for proper bone formation. It helps put calcium in the bones rather than in your artery walls (where you don’t want it).
 
All minerals in Osteo Calm that contribute to strong bones are in ionic form (having molecular charge that allows the element to readily bond with water) for better absorption. These include zinc, copper, manganese, potassium and boron.
 
Convenient and Tasty
 
Convenient and TastyOsteo Calm is formulated for effectiveness but also to be a convenient and enjoyable experience. Simply mix a half capful with an equal amount of water. Most people comment on its natural orange-vanilla flavor. There’s no sugar or fructose added—simply organic agave nectar and organic stevia. There are also none of the binders or fillers used in pills and capsules.
 
We suggest starting with ⅓ capful and gradually increasing to ⅓ capful twice a day, then working up to ½ capful twice daily. Because magnesium can have a mild natural laxative effect (which is good news for many who experience constipation), you can judge the optimal amount when bowels are comfortably loose.
 
Your body needs calcium, magnesium and vitamin D every day. We hope you’ll find Osteo Calm a pleasant way to help you feel healthier and be happier.
