Supplements
Vital Primivia™
Additional Information
Each packet contains 3 oblong yellow multiple vitamin and mineral tablets. The packets also each contain one oblong clear borage oil softgel and 1 oblong dark brown mixed fatty acids softgel for a total of 5 tablets/softgels.
The amounts and ratios of nutrients used in the Vital Primivia™ formula are based on a long history of clinical use and updated using the newest research findings. The 1:1 calcium to magnesium ratio, high potencies of vitamins E, C, D3, and B-complex, two bioactive forms of folate and vitamin B12, extra pantothenic acid for adrenal support, and full complement of trace elements distinguish this formula from ordinary multiple vitamins. This iron-free formula is suitable for all patients. Copper is included because of its importance for SOD antioxidant enzyme activity and to maintain a healthy balance with zinc. A clear, water-soluble cellulose coating protects the stability of the nutritional ingredients and makes the tablets easy to swallow. Each batch is tested using USP protocols to ensure tablet disintegration time of 45 minutes or less to help maximize nutrient bioavailability.

Primivia D™
Additional Information
Each capsule contains 1000 IU of D3. Vitamin D’s role in calcium metabolism and bone health is well known. Vitamin D receptors are throughout the body, where it acts to inhibit excessive growth of body cells and tissues. It also provides support to the immune system.
Primivia D5™
Additional Information
Each capsule contains 5000 IU of D3. Vitamin D’s role in calcium metabolism and bone health is well known. Vitamin D receptors are throughout the body, where it acts to inhibit excessive growth of body cells and tissues. It also provides support to the immune system.
Primivia Flax™
Additional Information
Flaxseed oil supplies a 3 : 1 ratio of α-linolenic acid (omega-3) to linoleic acid (omega-6). The omega-3 oils are important precursors of anti-inflammatory prostaglandins. Flax seed particulate containing protective lignan components is retained in the oil. Cold-pressing of flax seeds and natural caramel color in the softgel protects against heat and light–induced oxidation of fatty acids. This should be used in conjunction with Primivia Borage™ to maintain healthy omega-6 to omega-3 ratios in the body.
Primivia Borage™
Additional Information
Linoleic acid, the parent omega-6 fatty acid, is the predominant essential fatty acid in each of our trillions of cell membranes, both around the cell and inside the cell. There is 4 times more parent omega-6 oils in the body compared to parent omega-3 oils. Because omega-6 oils are found in some vegetable oils, it is recommended to take this oil as a supplement in equal combination with Primivia Flax™ or Primivia Flax/Borage™. This product also contains GLA. It is cold-pressed and free of hexane and other solvents. Vitamin E is added to maintain freshness.
Primivia Flax/Borage™
Additional Information
This product combines unrefined organically grown flax seed oil and borage seed oil in one softgel. For optimal proper ratios of omega-6 to omega-3 oils, this should be taken in conjunction with equal amounts of Primivia Borage™.
Gluca Primivia™
Additional Information
Each packet contains all of the basic vitamin, mineral and oil formulas of Vital Primivia, plus Gluca Primivia supplies a potent mix of nutrients and botanicals that efficiently support normal glucose metabolism, interrupt the glycation process, and provide antioxidant protection against tissue damage. Suggested use: 1 packet twice daily with food.
Gluca Primivia Forte™
Additional Information
Each packet contains all of the nutrients in Gluca Primivia, with the addition of cinnamon and turmeric extracts and twice the alpha-lipoic acid. Cinnamon enhances insulin-signaling pathways. Turmeric contains curcumin, a free radical scavenger shown to prevent AGE (advance glycation end products) formation and cross-linking of collagen. This product is recommended for those needing maximum support for blood sugar control. Additional magnesium, vitamin E and Ester C have also been added. Suggested use: 1 packet twice daily with food.
Primivia Gluco Support™
Additional Information
Formulated for the special nutritional needs of patients with impaired glucose tolerance or insulin resistance. People with impaired glucose tolerance are highly susceptible to the tissue-damaging effects of advanced protein glycation, a process that occurs when sugar reacts with body proteins resulting in accumulated destructive effects on blood vessels, nerves, and the lens of the eye. To minimize the potential for such reactions and provide focused support for insulin function, Primivia Gluco Support™ supplies a potent mix of nutrients and botanicals that efficiently support normal glucose metabolism, interrupt the glycation process, and provide antioxidant protection against tissue damage. For maximal benefit, this should be combined with Vital Primivia™.
Primivia Gluco Support Forte™
Additional Information
Formulated for the special nutritional needs of patients with severely impaired glucose tolerance or diabetes. It supplies all the nutrient of Primivia Gluco Support™ with twice the α-lipoic acid and the addition of cinnamon and turmeric. Cinnamon enhances insulin-signaling pathways. Turmeric contains curcumin, a free radical scavenger shown to prevent AGE formation and cross-linking of collagen. For maximal benefit, this should be combined with Vital Primivia™.
BP Primivia™
Additional Information
Formulated for the special nutritional needs of patients that need blood pressure support. The heart and all vital organs require Coenzyme Q10 to supply energy and to help protect all tissue from free radical damage. This form is solubilized in a base of rice bran oil and vitamin E. Magnesium and potassium have essential roles in maintaining normal heart rhythm, blood pressure, and energy production. Aspartic acid also facilitates cell-energetic properties. Hawthorn extract relaxes blood vessels, which is a key factor in normal blood pressure. It also imparts anti-oxidant protection and increased contractile strength in the heart.
Primivia Mag-Pot Asp™
Additional Information
Magnesium and potassium are essential for maintaining normal heart rhythm, blood pressure, and energy production throughout the body, including the heart. Aspartic acid additionally facilitates their cell-energetic properties.
Primivia Hawthorn™
Additional Information
Studies show Hawthorn relaxes blood vessels and enhances blood flow. Other effects include antioxidant protection and increased contractile strength of the heart. Standardized to vitexin, an active flavonoid component.
