Nopalea: The Many Benefits of Buying By the Case
June 8, 2010 by admin
Filed under Nopalea, TriVita Products, TriVita Specials
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:

Ward off This Season’s Flu Strains with these 3 Great TriVita Products!
November 11, 2009 by admin
Filed under Featured, TriVita Health Tips, TriVita Products, TriVita Specials
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. If you would like to check out the pricing and availability of those package options, click here to visit TriVita’s Specials.
The New Sonoran Bloom Infomercial Release is Right Around the Corner!
September 1, 2009 by admin
Filed under TriVita Business Opportunity, TriVita Company Updates, TriVita Products
Excitement is certainly brewing among TriVita affiliates as TriVita prepares for the scheduled launch of the new Sonoran Bloom Nopalea infomercial on September 10th, 2009!
So far, 3 variations of a “trailer” have been revealed to us and one point has been made abundantly clear in each of them:
THIS INFOMERCIAL WILL NOT ONLY PROMOTE NOPALEA, BUT ALSO THE TRIVITA COOPERATIVE MARKETING BUSINESS MODEL!
(See video trailers below)
This marks the dawn of a new era for the TriVita company and the affiliates currently in the business. NEVER in the 10 years that TriVita has existed have they marketed the business opportunity… Their vision was to create happy customers through promotion of their products exclusively- marketing of the business opportunity has always been left in the hands of those of us that were fortunate enough to find out about it from another affiliate.
What I Expect We Will See Come Out of the Co-Branding Message
With the launch of new infomercial, I expect there to be an enormous amount of interest generated in both the Nopalea product and the TriVita business opportunity. Already, there are rave reviews coming in about Nopalea and it’s ability to stave off the inflammatory response and DAILY I receive Nopalea Gift of Health requests from folks that have heard about the product from a friend or family member that has been using it themselves… Just imagine what will happen when those customers taking Nopalea and already sharing it word of mouth with others simply because it’s helping them learn that they can MAKE MONEY doing what they are already doing!
I, for one, consider this the TRUE launch of the TriVita business opportunity and look forward to the remarkable growth of my team and my own personal business as TriVita begins to take a more aggressive approach to building the company. With all of the upcoming events set to close our 2009 and usher in 2010, the future with TriVita is looking very bright.
As always, if you are interested in learning more about the TriVita Business Opportunity, I HIGHLY recommend downloading my TriVita Advantage Guide:

Toxins: A Major Source of Inflammation
May 30, 2009 by admin
Filed under TriVita Health Tips, TriVita Products
Toxins: A Major Source of Inflammation
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!

Looking for a low cost way to join TriVita? Sonoran Bloom might be the answer!
April 16, 2009 by admin
Filed under TriVita Business Opportunity, TriVita Products, TriVita Teambuild
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
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.

- 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.
