Bios Life E (Unicity Matcha)

Bios Life E (Unicity Matcha)

*Listed in PDR 2016

Description
Bios Life E (Unicity Matcha) is a nutritional supplement used to supply necessary vitamins, minerals, and electrolytes, as well as provide energy, amino acids, and antioxidants on a daily basis. Bios life E is a flavored powdered drink mix, delivered in a single-serve packet for convenience and ease of use.

Benefits and Research
Bios Life E (Unicity Matcha) is a refreshing ingredient blend that may boost energy and concentration, lower stress levels, and increase the metabolism. The principle ingredient in Bios Life E is a high-quality Matcha, a uniquely-grown green tea from Japan, which delivers a powerful dose of antioxidants in each serving.
Research shows Matcha delivers as much as 137 times more antioxidants than other green or black teas available on the market. Matcha contains especially high amounts of green tea antioxidants called catechins, a class of polyphenols, which may produce thermogenic effects by increasing the body’s metabolism. Catechins and other green tea polyphenols may also protect against cell damage.
Matcha is derived from Camellia sinesis, one of the few plants that naturally produce high levels of L-theanine and caffeine which may supply an increase in energy as well as enhance cognitive ability. Matcha is a unique tea leaf because it is shade-grown, forcing the plant to grow at a much slower rate. This greatly increases the catechins and amino acids available in an equivalent serving of Matcha green tea compared to standard tea. Additionally, because Matcha tea leaves are powdered and consumed whole and not just steeped, a cup of Matcha tea contains a larger variety and quantity of nutrients. This includes soluble and insoluble components such as chlorophyll, protein, and dietary fiber.
The catechins in Matcha have strong antioxidant properties and measured benefits in humans. These antioxidants work to speed up the metabolism, provide more energy over a longer period of time, and even decrease muscle fatigue.
Research shows the amino acid L-theanine, found in Matcha, has a calming effect on the human brain without causing drowsiness. This relaxation, paired with the stimulant effects of caffeine and theophylline, creates a heightened mental state that improves concentration.

Suggested Use
The contents of the packet can be mixed with 8-12 fl. oz. of water, shaken or stirred vigorously, and consumed. It can be served with ice if desired. Use one packet daily.

Safety and Warnings
Bios Life E (Unicity Matcha) is generally well tolerated. As with any dietary supplement, some gastrointestinal discomfort may be experienced. Bios Life E contains moderate amounts of caffeine; as such, caffeine-sensitive individuals should maintain caution when using this product.

How Supplied
Bios Life E is packaged in single-serve foil packets.

UBIQUINOL-CoQ10

UBIQUINOL-CoQ10

(Also known as CoQ10 Advanced Formula)

*Listed in PDR 2016

Description
As we age, levels of CoQ10 in the body decrease, causing the degeneration of cells. This may contribute to age-related conditions. Ubiquinol CoQ10 provides essential nutrients that may benefit the heart; it also contains antioxidants that may combat free-radical damage as well as help to naturally sustain healthy levels of CoQ10 in people as they age.
Ubiquinol CoQ10 is a high-potency formula of Ubiquinol along with sunflower oil, yellow beeswax, and sunflower lecithin to increase solubility and bioavailability. CoenzymeQ10 (CoQ10) is found naturally in the body and plays an essential role in the production of energy in all cells.

Benefits and Research
Ubiquinol (CoQ10) is found naturally in the body and plays an essential role in the production of energy in all cells. The body requires a sufficient amount of CoQ10 in order to function optimally. This product may help enhance the effectiveness of the immune system. Some research has shown that a CoQ10 deficiency may contribute to possible side effects in persons taking statin medications. CoQ10 may support heart health and may assist the body in energy production in cells. CoQ10 is also an antioxidant that may protect cells from free radicals.

Suggested Use
Take one softgel daily. Do not take while on blood thinning medication without consulting a doctor.

Safety and Warnings
Ubiquinol CoQ10 is generally well tolerated. As with any dietary supplement, some gastrointestinal discomfort may be experienced.

How Supplied
Available in softgels.

UNICITY BALANCE™

UNICITY BALANCE™ (PDR 2016)

(Also known as Bios Life^® Slim or Bios Life^® S) 
Formula for Healthy Cholestrerol Support

*Listed in PDR 2016

DESCRIPTION
Unicity Balance™ (also known as Bios Life^® Slim or Bios Life^® S) is a fiber-based, vitamin-rich nutritional supplement. Unicity Balance™ contains a blend of soluble and insoluble fibers, Unicity® 7× technology, phytosterols, policosanol, an extract of Chrysanthemum morifolium, vitamins, and minerals that when combined with a healthy diet and exercise may lower total serum cholesterol, and help achieve and maintain a healthy body weight.
Unicity Balance™ is light orange in color. It is a hygroscopic crystalline powder that is generally soluble in water. Each serving of Unicity Balance™ contains 4 g of fiber, 1 g of phytosterols, 750 mg of Unicity 7×, 6 mg of policosanol, and 12.5 mg of an extract of Chrysanthemum morifolium. In addition to these active ingredients, each serving of Unicity Balance™ contains maltodextrin, citric acid, orange juice powder, sweeteners, and orange flavor.

BENEFITS AND RESEARCH
It's estimated that Americans consume 10-12 g of total fiber per day, less than half the amount of the recommended daily intake. Epidemiological and clinical studies have correlated high daily fiber intake with an improvement in overall health.
Unicity Balance™ is a nutritional supplement designed to increase fiber intake. Each serving of Unicity Balance™ contains four grams of fiber. When taken three times daily, Unicity Balance™ contributes half of the recommended daily value of fiber. Fiber supplementation has been shown to decrease preprandial and postprandial glucose levels, lower LDL cholesterol and apolipoprotein B levels, increase satiety, and facilitate weight loss.
In addition to fiber supplementation, Unicity Balance™ contains a patented blend of phytosterols, policosanol, Chrysanthemum morifolium, vitamins, and minerals. Unicity Balance™ facilitates weight loss through five distinct mechanisms. First, the soluble fiber matrix promotes an increase in satiety. Second, Unicity Balance™ improves cholesterol levels. Reduction in LDL content removes a potent inhibitor of lipolysis. Third, Unicity Balance™ improves blood glucose levels. Appropriate serum glucose levels help maintain many metabolic processes in the body. Reducing insulin levels permits fatty acid oxidation to occur. Fourth, Unicity Balance™ restores appropriate leptin signaling. Lastly, Unicity Balance™ reduces triglyceride levels allowing for leptin to cross the blood-brain barrier and affect its mechanism of action.

SUGGESTED USAGE
Dissolve the contents of one packet or one scoop into 8 to 10 fl. oz. of liquid (water or juice) and stir vigorously. Drink immediately. Use 15-20 minutes before meals up to three times daily.

SAFETY AND WARNINGS
Unicity Balance™ is well tolerated. There may be mild gastrointestinal discomfort, such as increased flatulence or loose stools, during the first month of initial use due to the increased uptake of dietary fiber. This GI disturbance usually disappears within the first thirty days. If the GI discomfort persists, reduce the number of servings of Unicity Balance™. If the GI discomfort further persists, stop taking the product and consult your physician. Taking this product without adequate liquid can result in complications.

HOW SUPPLIED
Unicity Balance™ is packaged in single-serving foil packets or in bulk canisters.

OMEGALIFE-3™

OMEGALIFE-3™
Omega-3 Fatty Acid Supplementation

*Listed in PDR 2016

DESCRIPTION
OmegaLife-3™ is a blend of omega-3 fatty acids designed to help maintain healthy cardiovascular and cerebral function.
OmegaLife-3™ is an amber-colored, semi-viscous, fat-soluble liquid. Each serving of OmegaLife-3™ contains the following active ingredients: 800 mg eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), 400 mg docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), and vitamin E. In addition, it also contains the inactive ingredients gelatin, glycerin, purified water, and orange oil. OmegaLife-3™ has been molecularly distilled to ensure exceptionally pure oil and includes orange oil to prevent a fishy aftertaste.


BENEFITS AND RESEARCH
Clinical research suggests fish oil can help support proper brain and visual function. In 2002 the FDA approved supplementation of DHA in infant formula. DHA is potentially important in fetal and infant neural development, in that DHA and arachidonic acid have been shown to be incorporated into brain and retinal cell membranes—particularly during the third trimester of pregnancy and early infant life.
DHA is the predominant structural fatty acid in the central nervous system and in the retina of the eyes.
EPA supports the synthesis of important compounds in the body. EPA is the precursor of thromboxane and leukotriene, compounds involved in supporting healthy circulation. They also promote healthy blood vessels.
Evidence is accumulating that increasing intakes of EPA and DHA can decrease the risk thrombosis, decrease triglyceride levels, and decrease inflammation.¹
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has stated, “Supportive but not conclusive research shows that consumption of EPA and DHA omega-3 fatty acids may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease.”

USAGE
Take two softgels twice daily with a meal.

SAFETY AND WARNINGS
OmegaLife-3™ is well tolerated. As with any dietary supplement, some gastrointestinal discomfort may be experienced. Common side effects include a “fishy” taste upon eructation.

HOW SUPPLIED
Available in softgels.

BONEMATE® PLUS

BONEMATE^® PLUS
For Strong Bones and Healthy Teeth¹

*Listed in PDR 2016

DESCRIPTION
BoneMate^® Plus is specially formulated to help maintain optimal bone health.¹ It contains three forms of calcium and vitamin D to maximize absorption and aid in the support of healthy bones, teeth, nerves, heart, and muscle tissue.

BoneMate^® Plus is a light gray in color and is soluble in water. Each serving of BoneMate^® Plus contains the following active ingredients: 600 mg of calcium, 300 mg of magnesium, 30 mg of vitamin C, 2000 IU of vitamin D, 0.5 mg of boron, 5 mg of zinc, 1 mg of manganese, 1 mg of copper, and 20 mcg of vitamin K. In addition, it also contains the inactive ingredients microcrystalline cellulose, croscarmellose sodium, magnesium stearate, hypromellose, hydroxypropylcellulose, and stearic acid.

BENEFITS AND RESEARCH
Calcium is the most common mineral in the body. Almost 99% of the calcium in our body is found in the bones and teeth. Bone is a dynamic tissue that is constantly being remodeled throughout our lives. A chronically low calcium intake in growing individuals may prevent the attainment of optimal peak bone mass. Once peak bone mass has been achieved, inadequate calcium intake may contribute to accelerated bone loss.

Vitamin D, a secosteroid that is produced by the body upon exposure to the sun, is required for optimal calcium absorption. To ensure that calcium absorption is not limited by inadequate vitamin D levels, BoneMate^® Plus contains 2000 IU of vitamin D per serving. In addition to facilitating calcium absorption, vitamin D has been shown to target over 2,000 different genes in the body. Vitamin D is needed to maintain overall bone and heart health.

USAGE
Take two tablets twice daily with a meal.

SAFETY AND WARNINGS
BoneMate^® Plus is well tolerated. As with any dietary supplement, some gastrointestinal discomfort may be experienced. The Food and Nutrition Board of the Institute of Medicine has set the tolerable upper level (UL) of intake for calcium in adults at 2,500 milligrams (mg) of calcium/day.

HOW SUPPLIED
Available as tablets.

BIOS LIFE PROBIONIC®

Bios Life ProBionic^®

*Listed in PDR 2016

Description
ProBionic^® contains four strands of live, healthy bacteria that enter the digestive system and help balance bacterial populations in the intestinal tract. This supplement is for individuals with symptoms of poor digestive health such as constipation, diarrhea, bloating, and inflammation.

ProBionic^® is a water-soluble, light-pink crystalline powder. The proprietary encapsulation used for ProBionic^® allows the healthy bacteria to be delivered to the small intestines alive, ensuring the bacteria can confer health benefits for the user. Each packet of ProBionic^® contains a 100 mg Probiotic Blend of Lactobacillus acidophilus LA 02, Lactobacillus rhamnosus LR 04, Bifidobacterium breve BR 03, and Bifidobacterium lactis BS 01, with a total of 5 billion cells. In addition to these live bacteria, each 2 g packet also contains xylitol, natural berry flavor, citric acid, and silica.

Benefits and Research
Your body needs good bacteria to help with detoxification, food digestion, waste removal, production of vitamins, and protection from harmful organisms. When the intestinal bacteria is imbalanced and unhealthy bacteria dominate, the body is less able to fight off infection resulting in inflammation. The individual strains used in ProBionic^® are helpful for maintaining overall gut health.

The proprietary encapsulation used in ProBionic^® allows healthy strains of bacteria to be delivered to the digestive system alive and undisturbed. This also ensures the bacteria will remain alive throughout their shelf life.

Suggested Use
The contents of the packet can be taken dry, or they can be mixed with 8-10 fl. oz. of liquid (water or juice) and consumed. Use one packet daily

Safety and Warnings
ProBionic^® is generally well tolerated. As with any dietary supplement, some gastrointestinal discomfort may be experienced.

How Supplied
ProBionic^® is packaged in single-serve foil packets.

BIOS LIFE® CARDIO

BIOS LIFE^® CARDIO
Advanced Fiber and Nutrient Drink

*Listed in PDR 2016

DESCRIPTION
Bios Life^® Cardio is a fiber-based, vitamin rich dietary supplement. Bios Life^® Cardio contains a blend of soluble and insoluble fibers, phytosterols, policosanol, an extract of Chrysanthemum morifolium, vitamins, and minerals that when combined with a healthy diet and exercise may lower total serum cholesterol and triglyceride levels.
Bios Life^® Cardio is light orange in color. It is a hygroscopic crystalline powder that is generally soluble in water. Each serving of Bios Life^® Cardio contains 3 g of fiber, 1 g of phytosterols, 6 mg of policosanol, and 12.5 mg of an extract of Chrysamthemum morifolium. In addition to these active ingredients, each serving of Bios Life^® Cardio contains maltodextrin, citric acid, orange juice powder, sucralose, and orange flavor.

BENEFITS AND RESEARCH
It's estimated that Americans consume 10-12 g of total fiber per day, less than half the amount of the recommended daily intake. Epidemiological and clinical studies have correlated high daily fiber intake with an improvement in overall health.

Bios Life^® Cardio is a dietary supplement designed to increased daily fiber intake. Each serving of Bios Life^® Cardio contains three grams of dietary fiber. When taken three times daily, Bios Life® Cardio contributes nearly half of the recommended daily value of fiber. Fiber supplementation has been shown to decrease preprandial and postprandial glucose levels and lower LDL cholesterol and apolipoprotein B levels.

In addition to fiber supplementation, Bios Life^® Cardio contains a patented blend of phytosterols, policosanol, Chrysanthemum morifolium, vitamins, and minerals. This blend of ingredients optimizes cholesterol levels through a combination of four mechanisms. First, the soluble fiber matrix prevents cholesterol reabsorption in the gastrointestinal tract through bile-acid sequestration. Second, the phytosterols reduce dietary absorption of cholesterol. Third, policosanol inhibits hepatic synthesis of cholesterol mediated through HMG-CoA reductase. Fourth, Chrysanthemum morifolium provides phytonutrients that enhance conversion of cholesterol to 7-α-hydryoxycholesterol. The four mechanisms provide a synergistic approach to optimizing cholesterol levels.

SUGGESTED USAGE
Dissolve the contents of one packet or one scoop into 8 to 10 fl. oz. of liquid (water or juice) and stir vigorously. Drink immediately. Use 15-20 minutes prior to meals up to three times daily.

SAFETY AND WARNINGS
Bios Life^® Cardio is well tolerated. There may be mild gastrointestinal discomfort, such as increased flatulence or loose stools, during the first month of initial use due to the increased uptake of dietary fiber. This GI disturbance usually disappears within the first thirty days. If the GI discomfort persists, reduce the number of servings of Bios Life^® Cardio. If the GI discomfort further persists, stop taking the product and consult your physician. Taking this product without adequate liquid can result in complications.

HOW SUPPLIED
Bios Life^® Cardio is packaged in single-serving foil packets or in bulk canisters.

BIO-C™

BIO-C™

*Listed in PDR 2016

DESCRIPTION
Bio-C™ is a vitamin C nutritional supplement.
Bio-C™ is a yellow, water-soluble, crystalline powder pressed into a tablet. Each Bio-C™ tablet consists of a proprietary blend of ascorbyl palmitate, calcium ascorbate, ascorbic acid, magnesium ascorbate, and 37.5 mg of citrus bioflavonoids. In addition to the active ingredients, each tablet contains cellulose, stearic acid, silicon dioxide, croscarmellose sodium, and magnesium stearate.

BENEFITS AND RESEARCH
Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is a water-soluble vitamin that is used in the body to form cartilage, collagen, muscles, and blood vessels. Vitamin C is a potent antioxidant that can protect small molecules such as proteins, carbohydrates, nucleic acids, and lipids from damage caused by free radicals that are generated through the course of normal metabolism or through exposure to external toxins and pollutants (e.g. ultraviolet radiation from the sun or smoking). Vitamin C can also regenerate other antioxidants like vitamin E. Additionally, vitamin C is required for the synthesis of carnitine, a molecule involved in the transport of fats across the mitochondrial membrane, as well as the synthesis of norepinephrine, a neurotransmitter.¹

USAGE
Take one tablet morning and night with a meal.

SAFETY AND WARNINGS
Bio-C™ is well tolerated. Some gastrointestinal discomfort may be experienced as with any dietary supplement.

HOW SUPPLIED
Available in tablets.
