Nopalea: The Many Benefits of Buying By the Case

Though the offer for a free bottle (you just pay shipping) that you have seen on TriVita’s Nopalea Infomercial may seem appealing, there are a few things you should know before you start dialing in your order:

1) The Nopalea Wellness Challenge mentioned in the infomercial is going to require a lot more than 1 bottle to complete if you are following the loading phase instructions.

According to the loading phase insert enclosed in your shipment, you should take 3-6 ounces of Nopalea a day for the first 30-days to get the best results.

Well, since a single bottle is about 32 ounces, that means that first bottle of Nopalea should be gone in about 5-10 days- and it will take you about 5-10 days to receive your next shipment should you want to continue the Challenge.

2) The degree of inflammation in the body varies from person to person. For example, the inflammatory condition that Nopalea helps me manage is asthma- which mainly only bothers me when I’m really active- that means my degree of inflammation is much lower in severity than someone with arthritic knees or fibromyaliga- I can carry on moderate day to day activity without feeling the effects of my asthma condition whereas others suffer pain all day long… Therefore, I may feel a difference in my condition quicker than they would once taking Nopalea…

3)  Getting Healthy is a process. It takes years for inflammation to build up in the body, so you shouldn’t expect instant results from any product when trying to correct the damage.  In fact, many of the people that gave testimonials on the infomercial stated that it took 2 weeks, 4 weeks, even 2 months and sometimes more before they felt a physical difference.  The good news is that TriVita offers a 60-day money back guarantee on all of their products, so you can literally take up to 2 months to truly give the product a chance risk free.  If on day 60 you don’t feel it’s helped you at all, you can simply call the company and request a refund.

4)  Buying by the case makes your cost per bottle cheaper. A single bottle of Nopalea would cost you $49.99 at regular retail price.  A case of Nopalea (4- 32 ounce bottles) retails for $139.99, with occasional specials bringing the cost down to $119.99 per case- which translates into an average cost of $30/bottle.

In addition, TriVita uses set shipping fees that vary according to weight of the product.  A single bottle of Nopalea has a standard shipping cost of $8, while a case (4 bottles) is only $9.

All in all, it’s truly in your best interest, both in terms of health and finances, to purchase Nopalea by the case.  There’s no monetary risk, you have a higher likelihood of feeling a difference after starting to take the product and if the product does start to work for you, you will have plenty of time to contemplate reordering before you run out of the product.

Regardless of your decision, feel free to place your orders for Nopalea through TriVita’s secure ordering site by clicking the links below:

TriVita releases new multi-vitamin- Sonoran Bloom Wellavoh

November 13, 2009 by admin  
Filed under Featured, TriVita Company Updates, TriVita Products

Affiliates have known since the October Galaxy of the Stars event that this product was coming, but today made it official!  TriVita has formally released their brand new multi-vitamin for the Sonoran Bloom product line called Wellavoh!

The name “Wellavoh” is derived from the Native American language and means “Wellness Harvest” which is suitable because that’s exactly what this vitamin brings to the table!  It’s a mixture of all natural herbs, oils, fruits, plants and minerals.

So, what makes Wellavoh different from your standard multi-vitamin?

Well, for starters, your standard “pill” form of multi-vitamin is not going to contain the essential fatty acids and oils that the body needs to be healthy.  It’s starting to think that if you take a multi-vitamin supplement that it is traditionally “incomplete” in the nutrients it provides, but it’s true!  Oils like Omegas 3, 6 and 9 come in soluble liquid form- they can’t be added to a solid pill.  Wellavoh, on the other hand, has been created as a liquid capsule supplement so it can, and does, contain the essential omega oils and, for those that don’t like the flavor of a multi-vitamin or have trouble swallowing them, a gel capsule will go down much easier.

Second, TriVita has gone so far as dividing nutrients into AM and PM dosages.  The AM capsules provide your body with the vitamins you need to sustain your energy throughout the day while the PM capsules contain minerals needed by your body to repair itself after a long day.  This isn’t necessarily a new idea, it’s something that they also incorporated into their VitaDaily AM/PM multi-vitamin, but I can attest to it being effective in working.  I am an avid fan of the PM side of VitaDaily AM/PM vitamins since I can physically feel it work to settle me down after a busy day.  I sleep much better when taking the supplement than I do without it…

Last, TriVita has formualted a mens and womens version of this supplement!  It’s always been known that men and women require different amounts and types of nutrients, but multi-vitamins are rarely divided up to accomodate.  Wellavoh for Men provides the proper nutrition for optimal prostate, cholesterol and blood sugar health, while Wellavoh for Women offers optimal bone, skin, hormone and breast health.

What’s included in the Wellavoh multi-vitamin?

FIrst off, I should comment that TriVita is actually referring to Wellavoh as a “multi-nutrient” as opposed to a multi-vitamin, because it offers so much more than just vitamin supplementation…  Wellavoh actually includes 4 different blends of nutrients:

  • The Sonoran Bloom Blend: Includes the Nopalea cactus pad, which stabalizes blood sugar and cholesterol as well as sage seed, which is like an “energy superfood”.  It’s said that because of the Sage Seed, you will actually feel the effects of Wellavoh within 20 minutes of taking it
  • Heart Healthy Oil Complex: Includes fish oil, flax seed oil, pumpkin seed oil (in the mens version) and sage seed oil- all of which contain the essential omega-3 fatty acids and lignans to help reduce cholesterol and inflammation
  • Digestive Blend: Includes Ginger extract to inprove appetite, reduce nausea and inflammation as well as long pepper extract to reduce indigestion and body cramping
  • Whole Food Blend: Includes 24 whole food concentrates- bilberry, nopal cactus fruit, pomegranate, green tea and grape seed as well as others.

Wellavoh comes in a box of 30 packets of both the AM and PM supplement for a full 30 day supply of nutrients.  To learn more about Wellavoh for Men and Wellavoh for Women or place an order, please click on the respective product images below:

Ward off This Season’s Flu Strains with these 3 Great TriVita Products!

This flu season we seem to have more strains of influenza to fight than ever before… As H1N1 rages through our communities, the supply of the standard flu vaccine, and the H1N1 variety, is insufficient to meet the demand! Many of us have had to resort to adding ourselves, and our children, to waiting lists and are looking for alternative ways to help keep ourselves healthy in the meantime…

To understand how you can protect yourself, it’s important to first understand how a flu virus works:

There are 3 pathways by which a flu takes hold in the body….

  • Transmission
  • Infection
  • Inflammation

The first pathway, transmission, refers to the passing of the virus particles from one “host” to another. This makes sense since the flu cannot be caught without first being brought into contact with it…

The second pathway, infection, refers to the replication and spread of the virus within the host body. This means the virus particles create more of themselves until the body becomes overwhelmed.

The third pathway, inflammation, is what results in all of our symptoms. When our immune system senses that the body is being overrun with an invading “force”, it responds by releasing a flood of cytokines into the body (commonly called a “cytokine storm”) to fight the invader. Unfortunately, though the cytokines are just doing their job in producing the inflammatory response which will eventually drive the virus out, it comes at the cost of symptoms like chills, fever, body ache, nausea, diarrhea, mucous that fills our lungs, etc.

This is why it is said that it’s not the FLU VIRUS that is responsible for causing fatalities; it’s our body’s own coping process that is attempting to fight off the virus that is responsible. The important thing to realize is that preventing any of these pathways from kicking in will prevent you from getting the flu.

Breaking the Transmission Pathway

To prevent transmission from ever occurring, it’s important to fortify your immune system with the proper transmission inhibiting nutrients to prevent the virus from binding to your DNA. Two great transmission inhibitors are green tea polyphenols and quercetin. These are first of defense in arming your immune system from being DIS-armed by the flu virus.

Breaking the Infection Pathway

The virus infects the cell by matching to a cell receptor called Hemagglutinin. Hemagglutinin (the “H” in H1N1) allows the virus to gain entry to the cell and mutate the cell DNA so it can breed an infection. It also allows the newly mutated DNA to be incorporated into surrounding cells and through cell lines. Hemagglutinin describes “infection” with the flu. To prevent the infection process from occurring, there are two powerful natural inhibitors of Hemagglutinin that you can take: green tea polyphenols and ginseng (Panax and Eleutherococcus).

Breaking the Inflammation Pathway

If a flu has spread within the body to the point that symptoms of a cytokine storm start to be felt, it’s at this point that we should be making our immune system work smarter, not harder… Though a popular practice of people seeking natural relief is to reach for the Vitamin C and the Echinacea to “boost” the immune system, it’s actually smarter to inundate our body with more immune system modulating nutrients to address the inflammation. This goes back to the Quercetin and Green tea polyphenols and ginseng mentioned earlier on.

Three outstanding products that will keep you healthy during flu season

TriVita offers 3 to notch, all natural products that can give you the nutrients you need to protect yourself from every stage of the flu listed above. These products are:

Nopalea is a unique nutritional beverage made from the fruit of the Nopal Cactus. It contains an abundance of the Quercetin bioflavonoids called Betalains which help attack or prevent Inflammation.

Adaptogen is another nutritional beverage made from a variety of stress-fighting plant extracts. It contains 2 types of ginseng (Panax and Eleutherococcus) which will aid in balancing the immune system and preventing the “cytokine storm” from ever occurring. Basically, it keeps your immune system calm, cool and collected, while it works toward fighting any invaders in your system.

Energy Now! is a nutritional supplement capsule containing transmission fighting green tea polyphenols to help your body resist infection.

For those looking for supplements their kids can take to prevent the flu, I can tell you that my 8 year old son takes 1 ounce of both Sonoran Bloom Nopalea and Adaptogen 10 Plus daily without side effects. I would urge you, however, to check with your child’s physician before giving them to your own child.

SPECIALS: During the month of November only TriVita is featuring specials on a combination package of Nopalea and Sublingual B12 which includes a box of Energy Now! as a free gift. The Super Sublingual B12 also includes ginseng, which is mentioned above as aiding in balancing the immune system.

Toxins: A Major Source of Inflammation

May 30, 2009 by admin  
Filed under TriVita Health Tips, TriVita Products

Toxins: A Major Source of Inflammation

Have you ever walked down the cleaning aisle at the supermarket? What was your experience? I hate it! In fact, I completely avoid that aisle. If I need something, I hold my breath, quickly get what I need and beat a hasty retreat from that toxic soup.

The soaps, bleaches, softeners and fragrances in the cleaning aisle are all in sealed containers. Yet, they still give off an overwhelming, nauseating stench that may make a person sick for hours. What happens when we bring those containers home? They continue to give off toxins. Only now, the containers are open and the process happens 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

Our toxic environment
In North America we are inundated with toxins every moment of every day. Pollution in our air, water and food challenges our ability to detoxify and adapt. Worse still, the place we think of as a haven from stress – our home – is likely the most toxic environment we face in our daily routines. Toxins released from household chemicals, fabric, carpet, fragrances and pesticides seep into our body in tiny amounts even as we sleep.

Toxic waste, like barnacles on the hull of a ship, drags us down. It slows the efficiency of our mitochondria (the energy-producing engines inside our cells). Noxious chemicals create fatigue, headaches, digestive disturbances and moodiness. Eventually, toxins become the focus for inflammation.

Inflammation
Your body uses acute inflammation to try to neutralize toxicity. Think of your reaction to a bee sting: redness, swelling, heat and pain. This is not caused by the toxins in the bee venom. It is the reaction of your body as it tries to eliminate the toxicity:

  • Redness is the increase in blood supply to bring in immune system antibodies and remove the neutralized venom.
  • Swelling is the lymphatic fluid that dilutes the concentrated poison while providing proteins for repair of the tissue damaged by the toxins.
  • Heat comes from immune system activity as it battles the invading contaminant.
  • Pain causes us to guard that area from further damage.

Chronic inflammation occurs when the toxins are not completely removed from an area. A good example of this may be found in simple lawn chemicals, like fertilizers and pesticides. Certain fertilizers are potassium-based. Potassium is important for human health. When we are exposed to these fertilizers, our cells may accept the potassium along with the toxic “attachments.” Your immune system will constantly attack these contaminated cells until it destroys them. Clusters of diseases like Parkinson’s disease and multiple sclerosis have been linked to these fertilizers.

Home sweet home – isolate and insulate
Neutralizing toxins in the body begins with isolating ourselves from chemical exposure. We must be diligent if we are to protect our family from toxic overload. Chemicals should be stored out of the living area in a place that is well-ventilated. This is especially true if there are children in the home, as developing brains are up to 10 times more likely to suffer damage from toxins than an adult nervous system.

Insulating ourselves against toxic exposure is equally important. Two nutrient classes shine when it comes to protection from pollution:

  • Essential fatty acids – Many of the toxins we face are fat-soluble. We need “clean” fats in abundance to displace toxic fats in our brain, liver and other regions of our body.
  • Antioxidants – Antioxidants neutralize toxins and Betalain antioxidants found in Nopal figs have two added benefits over standard antioxidants:
    • Betalains drain away the toxin from an affected area
    • Betalains shore up the cell membrane to help promote healing.

Betalains turn out to be our best tool in combating the causes of inflammation: toxins, stress, injury and nutrient deficiency. Use this excellent tool liberally to help you resist the increasing onslaught of toxins both inside and outside of our home sweet home!

Take Control of Your Health

  • Breathe deeply
    • Remove toxins from your living area
    • Use HEPA filters for cleaner air
  • Drink pure water
    • Granular carbon filters remove many toxins
    • Ultraviolet light kills many pathogens
    • Mineralized, alkaline water displaces poisons
  • Eat nutritiously
    • Select organic foods
    • Pre-soak fruits and vegetables
    • Focus on high-antioxidant fruits and vegetables
  • Supplement with Nopalea
    • Betalains help your body neutralize toxins
    • Betalains help your body drain away toxic waste
    • Betalains help your body repair tissue damaged by toxins
  • Supplement with OmegaPrime; at least two capsules per day helps you resist fat-soluble toxins

Looking for a low cost way to join TriVita? Sonoran Bloom might be the answer!

TriVita recently started promotion of a brand new product line called Sonoran Bloom.  The first product they decided to kick off promotion with is a new nutritional supplement drink called, Nopalea, which is designed as an anti-inflammation supplement.

Most people are unaware of this fact, but inflammation is a common linking characteristic of a multitude of severe illnesses.  In a 1994 report done by Time Magazine,  inflammation was coined “the Silent Killer” because of this.

Along with the introduction of the Sonoran Bloom line, featuring Nopalea as the initial flagship product, TriVita also integrated a brand new compensation plan, called Share and Earn, designed to get affiliates on the fast track to commission earning success with a limited initial outlay of cash to get them started.

I think this was a brilliant move on the part of the company!  Right now, with the economy as it is, most people don’t have the required funds they can put out up front to join directly at a higher steadfast pack level or the time they can wait before they start producing a solid income back for their TriVIta building efforts.  The upper level TriVita memberships are really geared toward people seeking a secondary income or an investment- Sonoran Bloom is ideal for those that want to get started making money as an affiliate with TriVita right away.

The cost to join the Sonoran Bloom Share and Earn program is $35+shipping.  This money will be used to purchase an advertising starter package which contains promotional DVDs, brochures, letterhead and even some affiliate registration sheets to help get the affiliate started with their promotional efforts.  After sign up, the only other required monetary investment required is the purchase of a bottle of the Nopalea product every month ($39.99+shipping).

For more information on the Share and Earn program or to register now, visit the Sonoran Bloom Website or give me a call at 774-633-0045 today.

Understanding Diabetes and the Glycemic Index

April 11, 2009 by admin  
Filed under TriVita Health Tips, TriVita Products

Diabetes and the Glycemic Index

There is no doubt that type 2 diabetes is an epidemic in North America. Every year the number of people with this disease rises dramatically – and it does not appear to be slowing down. How can we protect ourselves against this trend? It is only with the vigorous application of the 10 Essentials for Health and Wellness.

Essential #4 encourages us to eat nutritiously. This requires a little education concerning the difference between a nutritious food and an “empty calorie.” Much of the information about the way particular foods impact diabetes is found in the Glycemic Index and Glycemic Load.

Glycemic Index and Glycemic Load
Several years ago a group of researchers decided to create a chart based on the impact of carbohydrates on a person’s blood sugar. This would help people with diabetes select foods that would have the least impact on their disease. The Glycemic Index (GI) measures the impact of foods on blood sugar when compared to pure sugar: glucose. The higher the GI number, the greater the impact on blood sugar and the worse a food was supposed to be for a person with diabetes. Later, the GI was used as a tool for weight loss and cardiovascular health.

Glycemic Load is a way of refining the information of the Glycemic Index to find a truer nutritional value for food. For instance, the Glycemic Index may rate the carbohydrate value in a food as very high. This would seem to make the food unacceptable for people who want to restrict sugar. The Glycemic Load gives us a more global value of your food beyond sugar content.

Glycemic Load takes into account the fiber, fat and water content of a food. Let’s take the example of parsnips:

Parsnips are creamy-colored root vegetables in the carrot family. They are delicious and have therapeutic value as well. Parsnips have a GI rating of 97, compared with pure glucose at 100. That would seem to make parsnips “bad” – unacceptable as a healthy carbohydrate source. However, parsnips contain so much fiber and water, as well as protein and fats, that they have only a tiny impact on the total load of carbohydrates (the Glycemic Load). Because of their protein and fat, they help keep your appetite satisfied for so long that you may even eat less at your next meal. So, parsnips are really very healthful despite their high GI number.

Potatoes have become taboo in most low-carb diets. Yet, potatoes have attributes similar to parsnips. They are good for you as long as you don’t deep-fry them and load them with bacon, sour cream, gravy, cheese and other high-calorie, high-fat condiments.

Compound carbohydrates – the true “bad” carbs
Though many fruits and vegetables are high on the Glycemic Index they are “good” complex carbs because they are low in Glycemic Load. Refined starches, such as pastries, pastas, pudding and pancakes, as well as gravies and similar sauces are a different story.

These foods:

  • Contain low amounts of water and fiber
  • Contain high amounts of “bad” carbohydrates and bad fats
  • Quickly turn to sugar in your bloodstream
  • Trigger insulin and inflammation
  • Increase your risk of heart disease, obesity and diabetes

These are truly sources of “bad” carbohydrates. They are examples of “compound” carbohydrates: foods which have been processed beyond recognition from their original whole food sources. They are never good in any amount.

Diabetes epidemic
In conclusion, the way to place yourself in the lowest risk category for type 2 diabetes is to eat whole foods which minimally impact your blood sugar. But that’s not all; did you know that stress alone may cause diabetes? Breathing deeply breaks the cycle of stress. And, since type 2 diabetes and obesity are related, getting enough sleep is essential. Add in the lessons from all 10 Essentials and you have a bulwark of protection against the epidemic of type 2 diabetes.

Take Control of Your Health

  • Get 7 ½ to 9 hours of sleep every night
  • Eat a nutritious diet
    • 7 fruits and vegetables for women
    • 9 fruits and vegetables for men
    • High quality protein every day
  • Get active doing things you love
    • Volunteer
    • Mentor younger ones
    • Never stop learning
  • Take your healthy aging nutrients
  • Help balance carb cravings with GlucoBalance and Leanology

  • Low Glycemic Diet
  • Agave Nectar
    Agave nectar is similar to honey, but with a lower Glycemic Index. For example, honey is between 55 and 85, depending on how many solids remain in the honey. Agave nectar is as low as 27. This means that Agave nectar absorbs slowly into the bloodstream, which allows your body to allocate it to the appropriate areas. Since it’s four times sweeter than sugar you can use a lot less when using it as a sweetener.

TriVita’s new Nopalea juice contains Agave Nectar!

Nopalea’s ability to combat inflammation, a critical factor associated with Diabetes, makes it the perfect supplement to add to your everyday health regimen.

Nopalea Kick-Off Special Edition

TriVita Makes History with Nopalea Kick-Off

On March 26, 2009, in Phoenix, Arizona TriVita made corporate history with the launch of Sonoran Bloom™ Nopalea™. Over 600 people in attendance witnessed first-hand the wellness benefits of Nopalea and the financial opportunity of the Share and Earn Program. “This event was the showcase of months of planning and execution to deliver an exciting product with a comprehensive wealth building program. These programs are supported by simplified training, marketing tools, web-sites, new enrollment kit and a national tour”, stated Marcus Ellison, Sr. VP of Sales and Marketing for TriVita.

This historical event began with a moving and inspiring message from TriVita’s CEO, Michael Ellison. Michael explained how the formulation of Nopalea began with a trip to Mexico and learning from the locals who know of the benefits of the nutrient-rich plants of the Sonoran Desert.

Michael brought to life the Sonoran Bloom Nopalea story audio CD which he previously sent to Affiliate Members, along with his wellness challenge, wellness journey and the creation of TriVita and the 10 Essentials. Listen to the CD to hear the story Acres of Diamonds. The story of Nopalea is a program that you will want to learn and share with others.

The event continued with Marcus Ellison, Sr. VP of Sales and Marketing explaining the production and manufacturing of Nopalea. A behind-the-scenes video of Nopalea being bottled and packaged allowed those in attendance to experience Nopalea with a deeper understanding. For the first time in TriVita’s history, Affiliate Members were allowed a rare view of the manufacturing process. Marcus also reviewed the aseptic processing of Nopalea and the quality manufacturing process TriVita uses with each of their premium products.

Chief Science Officer, Brazos Minshew reviewed the 4 benefits of Nopalea. Brazos provided information on the science and research behind the plants that Michael mentioned on his trip through the Sonoran Desert. He highlighted the science behind the product and its positive impact on inflammation and cellular health. As the chief formulator for the product along with support from TriVita’s Product Team, Brazos proudly reviewed why you will want to share this new product from TriVita.

Just before the break, Marcus gave each person in the audience a bottle of Nopalea. The Nopalea bottle is beautifully packaged and promises to have the visual ‘pop’ when you share it. Nopalea tastes as great as it looks. During the break, guests were allowed to have a taste of the product. Those in attendance were already talking about having tasting parties with product samples and showing the Nopalea DVD. The first half of the session focused on The Nopalea experience. This included the Nopalea story, production, science, taste and a free bottle.

After the taste test, the Healing Plants of the Sonoran Desert DVD, produced by Marcus Ellison, was played in its entirety. This program showed how easy it is to share Nopalea – just hand out the DVD and let it tell the story for you. One hundred complementary DVDs were given as a gift to each person who attended the kick-off event. This DVD allows you to be the messenger and not the message. The second half of the event showed how you can take the Nopalea experience and share and earn with it.

The afternoon continued with Ted Hernandez reviewing the 3 step success system found in the Share and Earn program.
Each attendee received the program guide so they could see how easy this system is to share with others. The 3 steps Ted reviewed included; 1)Share the Nopalea Story, 2)Pay it Forward, 3)Create Duplication. This introduction will be reviewed on the Tuesday training calls.

Cinda Malouin, TriVita’s Director of Marketing, reviewed the marketing initiatives that support Nopalea.
Cinda was directed to create a cohesive look and story that allows Affiliate Members to easily share Nopalea. Cinda reviewed several new sales aids designed to help you easily share Nopalea and TriVita. These new tools included; new brochures, audio CD, video DVD, website, business cards and a new starter kit, just to name a few.

The Share and Earn Program discussion continued with Terry Newsome, National Sales Director. Terry outlined the income accelerator weekly bonus and how easy it is to qualify for this new bonus program designed specifically for Nopalea sales. Terry offered insightful sales techniques with a story of the number of seeds in an apple, vs. the number of apples in a single seed.
Terry also offered kudos to Michael, Marcus and the field leaders for their direction and inspiration.

The afternoon session was concluded with a special appearance by Rudy Ruettiger, the person who inspired the movie “RUDY”. Rudy delivered a powerful message of how you can accomplish great things in your life. Rudy encouraged TriVita Affiliate Members to aspire to great things as he too is a TriVita Affiliate Member and has caught the vision of Michael Ellison and TriVita. Rudy’s commitment to TriVita was followed by him graciously taking the time to take photos with many of the Affiliate Members at the event.

Frequently Asked Questions for Affiliate Member Services

Q: Can I participate in Share and Earn for more than 90 days?

A:

Yes. The Share and Earn program allows you to earn up to 70% if you keep introducing new customers who purchase Sonoran Bloom Nopalea and/or signing up new Affiliate Members in the Share and Earn program. The 90 days begin when the first purchase of Nopalea is made…i.e…as you enroll new AM’s, or gain new customers, the clock starts ticking at their first purchase of Nopalea.

Q: If I have an Autoship order already established at 100 points, do I have to add Nopalea on top of that order which would make it 140 points to qualify for Share and Earn bonus?

A: If you wish to keep your Autoship order at 100 points, then simply decrease your current order by 40 points of products of your choice, and then add on the Nopalea to keep the value at 100 points. You must have at least a 40 point Autoship order of Nopalea to qualify.

Q: Do I have to purchase the Enrollment Kit to qualify for Share and Earn program?

A: No. However, with all the tools, and services represented in the kit, you will want to ensure your success to immediately start your business. Every AM in the month of April will automatically qualify for the Share and Earn program. This is TriVita’s gift to you to get started. However, you will want to qualify for May as well. To do this, you must place and receive a 40 point Autoship order in the month of April…and either buy a case of Nopalea (to waive the $35 U.S. Enrollment Kit) or purchase the Enrollment Kit.

Q: It seems like Sonoran Bloom is a separate company. Is it?

A: No. To successfully launch this outstanding, new Sonoran Bloom product line, it is necessary for TriVita to brand it’s new product and TriVita gives an added bonus to this new Sonoran Bloom product for all those who wish to participate in the Share and Earn program. It is still under the TriVita umbrella.

Q: Who is required to pay sales taxes?

A: Everyone is required to pay sales tax where applicable, no exemptions will be accepted.

Q: Does sales tax apply to where product is purchased or shipped?

A: Sales tax applies and is calculated based on where the product is shipped.
