There's a new multi-nutrient complex daily vitamin supplement that's more powerful than you average nutritional supplement.

According to TriVita's Chief Science Officer, "We need a multiple nutrient supplement every day to serve as a foundation for health and to combat the nutrient demands of a stressful life." And that's exactly why TriVita has created this new and more powerful nutritional supplement.

Below is information on Wellavoh™, the new super-nutritional supplement. The information is provided by TriVita's weekly health and wellness report.

How Nutrients Help Relieve Stress
Stress is defined as change that is seen by your body or mind as a threat - large or small, imaginary or real - or a change in your environment that triggers a rapid use of your reserves. Stress creates a demand on your resources. Soon, these resources become exhausted and you get sick.

Distress can come from your environment, your body or your mind. Rather than being just a single event, stress accumulates over time from all three sources. It strangles the joy and pleasure from your days and nights. It makes you miserable, and then it makes you sick. Once you are sick, stress keeps you from responding as well to medical care. Yes, stress is a killer!

Nutrients to the rescue
The opposite of stress is homeostasis. So, while stress is constantly trying to pull you apart, homeostasis is constantly working to put you back together. Homeostasis is the priority process your body uses to combat stress.

Vitamins, minerals and other nutrients are essential for homeostasis. If we have the nutrients we need at the moment we need them, we will thrive! Conversely, if we do not have the proper nutrient base in our system every day we will suffer loss of energy, poor mental performance and an increased risk for disease.

Supplements
The word supplement means an addition to something to make up for a deficiency. All supplements are an important addition to a healthy diet. They make up for the deficiency we face because of poor nutrient density in our foods. They also help out when we miss the mark of diet perfection.

Supplements are no substitute for good dietary choices. We simply must commit ourselves to eating a healthy diet. As you review your food choices for the past week, ask yourself, "Did I eat the right amount of fruits and vegetables every day?"

• 5 servings for children
• 7 servings for women
• 9 servings for men

If you can say "yes" - congratulations! If you are like most people you did not reach that goal. And, if you are like most of us, you did not eat all of your fruits and vegetables from an organic source; so, the fruits and vegetables may have been of low nutrient value.

We need a multiple nutrient supplement every day to serve as a foundation for health and to combat the nutrient demands of a stressful life.

A new supplement
Staying on top of our nutrient reserve is important. Our body makes millions of new cells every day - heart cells, brain cells, bone and blood cells. Stress kills millions of vulnerable cells every day. Every time a cell dies it should be replaced. If you do not have the right amount of nutrients to construct a new cell, you will either make an incomplete cell or none at all. The outcome is bad in either case; so, we really need to keep all nutrients on board at all times. This is why we created Sonoran Bloom™ Wellavoh™ (wel-lah voh), a new multi-nutrient complex for men and women.

The destructive forces of stress come from inside and outside your body. The nutrient complexes of Wellavoh can help you build a bulwark against stress as it tries to pull you apart. Wellavoh supports homeostasis as the innate wisdom of your body tries to keep you functioning at your peak.

One more reason...
Perhaps an even more important reason exists for maintaining a robust supply of nutrients in our system daily. According to a recent report, chemical switches on our DNA are activated by nutrients. If a single nutrient is missing at the critical moment it is needed, one of these chemical switches will fail. This results in a change in our DNA that promotes disease - for up to three generations of our children! So, it is vital that we and our children have our nutrients available every day to reduce the impact of stress while promoting vitality today, health tomorrow and a solid wellness foundation for generations to come!

Nutritional Vitamin Supplements

Looking to start a home business? Now may be a good time to start one, especially if you want to get into the health and wellness industry. Consumers are purchasing more nutritional vitamin supplements than a year ago.

Even though we are faced with challenging economic times, 65% of adult consumers (up slightly from 64% in 2008) take dietary supplements, according to a new consumer survey conducted by Ipsos-Public Affairs for the Council for Responsible Nutrition (CRN), Washington, D.C.

According to results from the 2009 CRN Consumer Survey on Dietary Supplements, the economy prompted 27 percent of dietary supplement consumers to alter their supplement purchasing habits. Among that group, purchasing habits changed in the following ways:

• 59 percent (of the 27 percent) reported they are purchasing fewer supplements as a means to save money;
• 31 percent (of the 27 percent) indicated they are now purchasing less expensive brands;
• 26 percent (of the 27 percent) said they have been purchasing store brand supplements;
• 23 percent (of the 27 percent) indicated they rely on coupons and other value-added promotions;
• 22 percent (of the 27 percent) responded they only buy supplements when they are on sale;
• 5 percent (of the 27 percent) responded they are purchasing more supplements to maintain health; and
• 4 percent (of the 27 percent) responded they have stopped purchasing supplements because of the economy.

Supplement consumers indicated the three factors most important to them when purchasing supplements are: the price, the supplements facts box (i.e., dosage, daily value, etc.) and the label claims (maintain heart health, maintain joint health, etc.). The online survey also showed a slightly higher percentage of adults who label themselves as supplement users, with 65 percent classifying themselves as such.

In 2008, 64 percent of American adults identified themselves as supplement users. These numbers are also consistent with previous years' findings, as 68 percent and 66 percent of Americans identified themselves as supplement users in 2007 and 2006, respectively.

"We're pleased that consumers continue to place emphasis on their health, even in uncertain economic times, and that dietary supplements continue to play a role in their overall wellness regimen," said Judy Blatman, senior vice president, communications, CRN. "According to our survey, consumers, including supplement users, report to be taking necessary steps towards good health, such as trying to eat a balanced diet and getting regular exercise. We're encouraged that dietary supplements continue to be a part of that equation for many."

This is terrific news for anyone involved in the health and wellness industry, especialy for the people trying to build a successful home business. As more and more baby-boomers contiue to age, I believe that the numbers will continue to go up. Now is the time to get involved in the health and wellnes industry and start a home business.

TriVita is one nutritional company that offers a great business opportunity, with many patented nutritional products to choose from. They also promote their own products, which generates plenty of customers, which, in turn, are available to all affilates throguh their media acqusition program.

A lot of people suggest that burning more calories than you take in is essential to maintaining your ideal weight or striving to reach your optimal weight. This may be true, but does this simplified idea produce a healthy body? You be the judge. Your overall body health as well as weight gain or loss must be factored in to the equation or you could be heading for health issues in the future.

Correct nutrition can help to reduce the risk of a myriad of health-related problems, the most frightening of which are surely heart disease and cancer. Proper nutrition, however, entails eating many different foods, monitoring your consumption of some food and beverage items, counting calories, and supplementing your diet with a nutritional multi-vitamin. Good diets offer balanced nutrition that reduces cholesterol, blood pressure, and helps with weight control.

The correct combination of nutrients is very important to keep your body functioning at its peak:

Carbohydrates are the primary source of ammunition in your diet. The body uses carbohydrates to build glucose which can be used immediately or stored in your body for later. Too much glucose, however, is stored as fat. There are two types of carbohydrates - simple and complex. Sugars are simple carbohydrates. Starches and fibers are complex carbohydrates.

Proteins help your body build and maintain muscles and other tissues. They also function in the creation of hormones. Like carbohydrates, excess protein is stored as fat.

Animal and vegetable are the two major types of proteins. Too much animal protein can cause high cholesterol, because it's high in saturated fat.

Fat is another nutrient your body requires. Yeah, I know that sounds pretty strange, but fat comes in both saturated and unsaturated forms. Saturated fat puts you at risk of health problems. Unsaturated fat is healthy; however, if it goes through a refinement process, it can become saturated fat.

Vitamins are required nutrients. Every vitamin performs a different task within your body. For example, vitamins can work with the metabolism to help with energy levels, and some vitamins can even help prevent disease.

Here are some good examples; vitamins A, C, and E, called antioxidants, can assist with the prevention of coronary artery disease by keeping build up from occurring on artery walls. Vitamin B-1 is needed for digestion and proper nervous system function. Vitamin B-2 is needed for normal cell growth. Vitamin B-3 helps to detoxify your body. Folic acid assists with production of red blood cells. Vitamin D assists with the absorption of calcium. Vitamin K helps your blood clot.

Your body requires minerals and trace elements, other nutrients, that are used in many different body processes. For example, a mineral like chlorine helps to create your digestive juices. On the other hand, phosphorus helps build strong bones. Both chlorine and phosphorus can be found in the foods we eat. Salt is another nutrient required by your body. However, according to some health professionals, you should not consume more than 2400 milligrams per day.

I suggest that you follow the guidelines set forth by your health care provider to create a well balanced, nutritional diet. And most of them will tell you to consume two and one half cups of vegetables, and two cups of fruit each day. A good variety of fruits and vegetables is always suggested. It has also been suggested that you eat as many different colors as possible.

Whole grain products should also be consumed each day. Many nutritionists suggest that at least half of your grain intake should be whole grain based. Milk is also a necessity to a healthy diet. However, it should be low fat milk. Ten and thirty percent of your calorie intake should come from fat. Make sure the fats you consume are in the form of unsaturated fats.

Excellent nutrition is the basis of a healthy diet, and nutritional vitamin supplements can provide the missing vitamins and minerals that your body needs to perform at its peak.

Most Americans eat well enough to get the recommended nutrients on a daily basis, or do they? Is diet alone, enough to sustain a healthy body, or are vitamin and mineral supplements needed to get your daily requirements of the proper nutrients? This has been an ongoing argument for some time, and will probably continue for many years to come.

A lot of researchers say that the food we eat today is fortified with plenty of nutrients. The once common vitamin deficiency diseases such as scurvy and rickets (caused by a lack of vitamin C and D, respectively) have nearly disappeared in America and other advanced countries. For the most part, researchers believe that with a few exceptions, like the elderly or pregnant women, most people don't need supplements.

Ok, hold on; before you go and throw all of your nutritional vitamin supplement bottles away, continue reading.

There are some researchers who maintain that the diets of many Americans still fall well short on several essential nutrients. However, the lack of these nutrients is not enough to cause those debilitating deficiency diseases, but perhaps enough to miss out on their benefits without extra help from supplements.

While the most popular, and probably the least effective, supplement is the multivitamin. There is little evidence to support the fact that they do any good, yet many make claims that cannot be supported. Some researchers do say that multivitamins are "an inexpensive insurance policy," says David Schardt, senior nutritionist at the Center for Science in the Public Interest.

On the upside, there is a growing consensus that states Americans get too little vitamin D, which is needed to help the body absorb calcium. Calcium is important for healthy bones, and can help in the prevention of osteoporosis. Extra calcium to protect bone health is safe and is routinely prescribed for women who get too little from food. Because vitamin d and calcium work hand-in-hand, you may see nutritional supplements that contain both calcium and vitamin d.

TriVita's VitaCal-Mag D is one such supplement. According to TriVita, "the key to bone health is calcium and Vitamin D. These are the two essential ingredients that will help you maintain the strength of your skeletal system, ensure regular cellular activity, proper cardiac function, and preserve the health of other vital body systems."

There are many nutritional supplements that can help you maintain a healthy body, So before you clean out you medicine cabinet, do some research. If you have supplements that can help, follow the directions on the back of the bottle and start taking them. They do absolutely no good sitting in your medicine cabinet. On the other hand, there are some supplements that do just as much good, in your body, as sitting in the cabinet.

Do your research, and start taking nutritional supplements that provide results. You can then help support one side of the argument; are vitamin and mineral supplements needed?

There's an on going debate on the importance of taking daily nutritional vitamins and minerals. With that said, are vitamin supplements more important today than in earlier years?

Nutritionists say that in earlier times, people did not require the intake of vitamin or mineral supplements. Individuals would get plenty of nutrition from their diet alone, and fruits and vegetables proved to be a good source of vitamins and minerals. At that time they were grown locally and harvested at the proper time, keeping the nutritional value intact.

Back then the soil was fortified with natural minerals typically found in manure and other natural forms of fertilizer. However, today the soil is fortified with man-made chemicals and artificial and synthetic pesticides. The result, lost nutrients in the fruits and vegetables, thus leading to the necessity of additional vitamin and mineral intake. I believe this is why there are so many companies producing and/or selling vitamin and minerals.

Fruits and vegetables, once the ideal source of vitamins and minerals and considered complete nutritional foods, may now be in trouble of losing their nutritional status. Most of the fruits and vegetables we eat at the present time are not grown locally. They are brought in from different states and/or countries. Many of those fruits and vegetables are harvested long before they're ripe, and in order to increase their longevity they are treated with chemicals.

Soil depletion is a problem facing the farmers. Since fruits and vegetables rely on getting essential nutrients from the soil it would only stand to reason that bad quality soil results in poor nutritional food. With the problems facing the farmers, were the fruits and vegetables are grown, no wonder people are missing vital vitamins and minerals from their regular diet, even if they think they are eating healthy meals.

According to Dr. Marianne Sarrantonio, Associate Professor of Sustainable Agriculture t the University of Maine, "Farming is not a natural process. It's disruptive to the soil. When we mono crop, we decrease the diversity of life forms above and below ground. When we till repeatedly, we destroy soil structure, promote loss of organic matter and disrupt nutrient cycles." [1]

Vitamins and minerals play an important role to keep the human body organs functioning properly. Different vitamins and minerals affect different organs or parts of the body. For example, calcium is an important mineral, which is a must for the healthy growth of bones; and it's a known fact that a deficiency of calcium can result in stunted growth and fractures, among many other problems.

You may be thinking that the best source of calcium (according to your mother) is milk. That's not true. "The best source of calcium is from plants, including tofu (if prepared using calcium sulphate, it contains more than four times the calcium of whole cow's milk); seaweeds; green leafy vegetables; watercress; seeds; dried figs; and nuts. The calcium in green vegetables like kale is absorbed as well or even better than the calcium from cow's milk." [2]

There are so many fruits and vegetables that are affected if they are grown in poor soil. So, even if a person adheres to a healthy diet, he/she may still require additional nutrients. These additional nutrients can, and for the most part should, come from nutritional vitamin supplements. That's why many nutritional experts recommend taking daily vitamins.

Are all nutritional vitamin supplements the same? No!

How do you select a nutritional health supplement which will provide you with the best possible health benefits?

The label on the bottle is a good place to start, and is also a tool for evaluating a good health supplement brand. The label should tell you the names of the nutrients contained and the amount contained, the form of the ingredient used, and the number of tablets contained in the bottle.

The nutritional supplements should meet GMP (good manufacturing practice) compliance, pharmaceutical grade production, as well as quality control measures.

The supplements should be tested and analyzed independently for their effectiveness, purity and potency. You should be able to find this information by contacting their customer service department. If they are accessible and accommodating with your inquiries, you might have found yourself a good supplement brand.

One nutritional vitamin supplement that I recommend is manufactured by TriVita, called Vita Daily.

Vita Daily is an extra-rich, super-abundant multi-vitamin/multi-nutrient formula. It provides you with an overflowing abundance of 24 vitamins and macro minerals, over 50 trace minerals, 25 whole food concentrates, vital enzymes, fundamental amino acids, life-giving phytonutrients and essential fatty acids. All of this gives your body so much more of what it really wants, needs and deserves - for optimal health -- every single day and night.

Vita Daily AM/PM's special chlorophyll coating helps your body more fully absorb all of the ingredients, plus helps keep the ingredients protected from oxidation until you use them. On top of all this, Vita Daily AM/PM is also natural and gluten free.

Nutritional supplements have been scientifically prove to be a reliable and secure means of providing the body with all the necessary nutrients. Together with nutritional supplements, one should eat a balanced diet comprised of healthy food. And by all means you should avoid junk foods that have no nutritional value.

So, are vitamin supplements more important today than in earlier years? You can judge for yourself; however, I'd prefer to error on the safe side and provide my body with the proper nutrition, most of what's missing in the food we eat.
