75% OF PEOPLE WORLDWIDE DO NOT MEET THE RECOMMENDED DAILY INTAKE.

** World Health Organization

SUPPLEMENTS HELP FILL THE GAPSupplements can help fill the gap left in our diets, making sure our bodies get the right range of nutrients in the proper quantities and that food supplements fit into even the busiest schedule with ease.

Supplements are right for you, if• You do not eat a minimum of 5 servings of fruit and vegetables that are

recommended by WHO • You eat 5-9 servings but don’t get a wide variety• You often don’t have time to make healthy meals• You often choose convenient, processed foods over healthier options.

MOST ADULTS WOULD NEED TO AT LEAST

DOUBLE THEIR CURRENT INTAKE OF FRUIT AND VEGETABLES TO MEET THE WHO RECOMMENDATION

WHYFOOD SUPPLEMENTS?We all know that vitamins & minerals are important to our diet, but did you know that your body could not function without them?

In fact, we require small amounts of numerous vitamins & minerals in our daily diet to ensure normal functioning of our body. That is why it is important to have a well-balanced diet. The World Health Organisation (WHO) recommends a minimum of 5 servings of fruit and vegetables per day.* The right balance of nutrients in our food can help us enjoy life more and get sick less.

* Recommendation of the World Heath Organisation

But with our busy schedules and active lives, the majority of us are not eating enough of the recommended amount, creating a gap between what we eat and what we need. Yet many experts are concerned that even the fruit and vegetables we buy in shops today are not as nutritious as they used to be.

did you know?NUTRILITE™ SUPPLEMENTS ARE MADE BY COMBINING VITAMINS, MINERALS AND PHYTONUTRIENTS FROM OVER 170 PLANTS.

WHYphytonutrients?

POWER UP YOUR PLATEThe Greek word ‘phyto’ means plant, and the term ‘nutrients’ translates into life-enabling substances. Phytonutrients are plant nutrients found in fruit and vegetables. Plants produce phytonutrients to promote their own growth and protect themselves from cellular damage and disease.

The vibrant colours of fruit and vegetables are often due to these plant-based nutrients, so when we see colourful fruit and vegetables, we are looking at nature’s gift of health. The vibrant plant colours represent different spectrums of health benefits.

THE POWER OF A PLANT-BASED DIET

While living in China in the early 20th century, Nutrilite founder Carl F. Rehnborg learned first-hand the benefits of a plant-based diet.

In the cities, where people ate far more sugar, salt and fat and far fewer plant-based foods, Carl met people who suffered from poor nutritional health. By contrast, in the countryside, where fresh fruit and vegetables were plentiful, people were much healthier overall.

Carl’s observations and experiments led him to identify important but unknown compounds in plants that he called “associated food factors.” He understood that people who lacked these associated food factors in their diets were not eating enough fruit and vegetables, and consequently, they were not as healthy as they could be.

In 1934, with this idea as his foundation, Carl began his business and introduced the first multivitamin/multimineral supplement for sale in North America. In 1939, the company Carl F. Rehnborg founded was renamed Nutrilite Products, Inc. Today, we know the associated food factors Carl discovered as phytonutrients. These organic compounds give plants their colour, protect them from environmental stresses, and provide a bounty of nutrients. The vibrant plant colours represent different spectrums of health benefits. By including phytonutrients in our daily diet, we are better able to achieve our optimal well-being and can help maintain our bodies’ proper function. Carl F. Rehnborg was a true pioneer in the study of plant nutrients and nutrition – helping millions of people to this day understand the power of a plant-based diet!

OUR FARMS SET US APART

THE BEST PHYTONUTRIENTS COME FROM FARMS WITH SUSTAINABLE FARMING. SO THAT’S WHAT WE USE.

Of course, sustainable farming is more expensive than conventional farming, but it’s worth it. Here’s why: Plants produce phytonutrients as a defence mechanism to protect themselves against pests and disease. When crops are sprayed with herbicides and synthetic pesticides, as they are on conventional farms, the plants don’t have to work as hard to defend themselves. The end result: fewer phytonutrients, and a less-nutritious product. By growing crops with sustainable farming, we ensure our supplements contain optimal phytonutrient levels. It’s good for our product, good for the earth, and good for the people that work for us. We harvest plants at their peak and when possible use whole plants, including seeds and skin, to obtain maximum nutrient levels. We own farmland in Washington State, Mexico, and Brazil.

NUTRILITE is one of the worldwide leading Food Supplement brands practising its own sustainable farming.

HOW DO WE FARM?

For Nutrilite, sustainable farming is something we’ve believed in from the very beginning – long before sustainable farming was even a concept. We:

• Prohibit the use of synthetic fertilisers, toxic chemicals, and pesticides.

• Use natural methods to control harmful weeds, insects, and predators.

• Practise sustainable farming methods that include crop rotation, intercropping, composting, earthworms, and water management.

• Create our own organic compost to put nutrients back in the soil.• Prevent topsoil erosion and improve soil fertility and water quality

by utilising holistic agricultural techniques.• Protect the environment and its habitats, and promote species

diversity and a sustainable future for our planet.

WE USE NATURE TO CONTROL NATURE

Meet Copper, one of the many falcons used for natural pest control on Trout Lake Farm. Copper is three years old, and his job is to scare away smaller birds that pose a threat to our crops. He’s gentle and easy to work with, but terrifying to pest birds. But don’t worry: Copper doesn’t hurt. He loves his job and is always eager to get started – but when it’s time for dinner, he returns to his handler.

PEST CONTROL

• Ladybirds are released into the fields to control crop-eating pests such as aphids, mealybugs and whitefly.

• Green lacewings are also used in the fields; their voracious appetites make them one of the most valuable of all beneficial insects as they eat a wide variety of insect pests.

• Predatory birds such as hawks, help control crop-destroying birds and rodents.

• Solar-powered bird guards transmit bird distress signals to fool birds into believing that a predator is nearby.

• Flash tapes are strips of reflective

material that move in the breeze and flicker in the sun to create bright flashes that startle and deter birds without causing them any harm.

WEED CONTROL

• Soil solarisation is a technique that involves covering irrigated and prepared planting beds with plastic and, under powerful sunlight, the intense heat in the soil destroys weeds and weed seeds, leaving the field ready for planting.

• Hand weeding with a hoe is a good, if old fashioned, skill and one of the world’s most tried and tested methods.

• Intercropping is the planting of two crops together for mutual benefit, for example, the second crop fills the niche that weeds would occupy and can provide nutrition for the production crop.

• Flame weeding is where a focused flame of more than 1,000 degrees centigrade is passed through the fields to burn weeds prior to the planted crop germinating.

• Grazing livestock in between plantings will reduce weeds and enrich the soil with biological nutrients.

WHAT TEAM NUTRILITE CAN DO FOR YOUR BUSINESS:

Team NUTRILITE is your opportunity to captivate, capture and capitalise on a growing number of people actively pursuing a more balanced lifestyle.Why not find out more about the kind of athletic activities that your customers are interested in? Encourage them to attend or host a Team NUTRILITE event in their area, to get fit, feel great and meet like-minded people.Your customers should know that becoming a member of Team NUTRILITE is not just about taking NUTRILITE products to improve nutrition and well-being, it is an opportunity to become part of something much bigger; a community striving to inspire each other to achieve the balance we need for optimal well-being.

BUSINESS

By working together and fully embracing the Team NUTRILITE philosophy, we have the power to reach this goal, while improving the business prospects for every ABO along the way!

Nature gave us all different strengths and abilities, and Team NUTRILITE is about getting the best out of whatever nature gave us. It is not about satisfying someone else’s expectations; it is about achieving your own potential.

The Team NUTRILITE initiative is designed to bring awareness to the NUTRILITE Brand and the NUTRILITE range of vitamin, mineral and food supplements.

team NUTRILITE™

Team NUTRILITE is made up of active, healthy, passionate, positive, motivated, adventurous, amateur and professional, fun-loving, ordinary, extraordinary, committed and inspired people, all sharing the same single goal – the pursuit of optimal well-being.

The Team NUTRILITE™ philosophy is split into three primary categories. Each of these categories is equally important to its success:

ATHLETES

Along with countless individuals from around the world striving to achieve their own optimal well-being, some of the most exciting and inspiring athletes in the world have already joined Team NUTRILITE.

EVENTS

Team NUTRILITE encourages people from around the world to participate in a variety of NUTRILITE brand sponsored events. Events can be anything from a gentle fitness walk, to a football tournament. At these events, current and prospective consumers can meet both elite and everyday athletes and experience the camaraderie of the Team NUTRILITE worldwide community. It is also an opportunity to sample NUTRILITE products while gaining valuable exposure to the NUTRILITE brand.

Team NUTRILITE is proud to boast a number of elite athletes among its committed members.

Although these athletes provide an exciting and positive endorsement for the NUTRILITE brand, the real bond that holds Team NUTRILITE together is not world-class athletic achievement - it is a shared passion for fully living and loving life.

NUTRILITE™ EXTENDS ITS EXPERTISE TO TACKLE A GLOBAL SOCIAL ISSUE:Childhood malnutritionChronic malnutrition is the underlying cause of 45 percent of childhood deaths before the age of 5. That means more than 3 million children are dying every year because they do not get the right nutrients with their food, according to the World Health Organization (WHO).

NUTRILITE scientists who are experts in the field of nutrition for people around the world and who are working in line with the latest findings in this area, developed a micronutrient powder that contains 15 vitamins and minerals that are essential for the development of a child. It is called NUTRILITE™ Little Bits.

In March 2014 Amway launched the Nutrilite Power of 5 Campaign to build awareness for this global issue, to educate on the critical role nutrition plays in early childhood development and, ultimately, to help children reach their fifth birthday, which is an important milestone in human development.

Our main goal in 2016 was to provide 5 million NUTRILITE™ Little Bits daily portions to children in 15 countries. This goal is expected to benefit more than 14,000 malnourished children age 6 months to 5 years old and will allow them to grow and develop like any other child.

In the past years Amway has provided NUTRILITE Little Bits to thousands of children in Mexico, Brasil, Dominican Republic, Haiti, Colombia, Costa Rica, Colombia, Panama, Honduras, El Salvador, South Africa, Zambia, Indonesia, Vietnam and China.

Nutrilite Power of 5 Campaign has been embraced by many people around the world, including Amway Business Owners, employees and members of the general public. But we want to do more, no child should be deprived of the nutrients it needs to grow and develop. Collaboration is the key word: We need to develop more partnerships with like-minded organisations and with individuals who share our values and are supporting efforts to bring more NUTRILITE™ Little Bits to more children.

Malnourished children who reach the age of 5, often suffer lasting effects, including stunted growth, poor cognitive development and low immunity to disease. Malnutrition also affects school performance and studies have shown it often leads to lower earning potential as an adult.

Amway works with NGOs to distribute NUTRILITE™ Little Bits to malnourished children. In order to make the programme sustainable, the NGOs are educating parents on healthy nutrition, hygiene issues and clean drinking water. They also measure the impact on the development of the children.

You too can help to give these children a chance in life with NUTRILITE vitamins and minerals! Please contact your local Affiliate.

Nutrilite’s philosophy and approach to nutrition is unique and this resonated with our background of nutrition and biology, which is, a PhD in Food & Nutritional Sciences and an MSc in Immunology. Through Amway training, visiting the Nutrilite Health Institute in California, and using Nutrilite products, we have helped ourselves and many other people to improve their health.

After joining Amway, through personal use, we quickly learned how effective the products were and that they saved us money. To make people believe in the Amway Opportunity, we held business meetings with our uplines and arranged team training so they could see the bigger picture of the business as an opportunity.

Success with the Amway Opportunity requires self-belief and a self-starter mentality, belief in Amway, its products and support – this is priceless – and an unshakeable belief in your coach and line of sponsorship. We advise new ABOs to attend Amway Academy training and access all the official training portals for Nutrilite. The Amway product manuals are a good reference guide, along with the My Presentation app, Amway Academy, and Amway Official YouTube channels. The manuals provide a comprehensive review of the products and help ABOs provide answers and necessary assurance for themselves and their customers.

We meet our customers where it’s convenient for them, either at their home, the Amway Centre in Holborn or another location. We cross sell Artistry and Nutrilite as these are a natural fit – for example, in skincare sessions we recommend Daily/Double X and Biotin C to enhance a good skincare routine. It’s important to be a product of the products, and we communicate the area of wellness from the standpoint of being users, relating our personal experience and our customer testimonials. Product demonstrations are very effective and our main tips would be: DO practise and prepare beforehand; DON’T be too ambitious, start with a simple demonstration when you are new to the business.

sharingABO experienceWe couldn’t help but wonder – how do the best Amway Business Owners work? After all, these are the people to learn from. We asked them to tell us stories of their cooperation with AMWAY™ and to share their experiences, as the comments and thoughts of successful practitioners are the most valuable sources of information. Below you will find some key rules by which they try to abide. For instance, Colin and Andrea Gordon told us how to effectively develop a business based on AMWAY Nutrition products.

REMEMBER WHAT’S MOST IMPORTANT:

1. Familiarise yourself with the products you are going to present, preferably by using them yourself, and openly share knowledge and everyday experiences. This will boost your confidence and credibility, since others will perceive you as an ambassador of the Amway brand.

2. Use various materials – printed, online and digital – depending on your preferences and needs, but bear in mind that written texts serve only to reinforce spoken language.

3. Ensure your customers are comfortable and, if possible, meet them at a location of their choosing (their or your home or a neutral location) – this will facilitate product presentation and create a friendly atmosphere.

4. Remember that the ability to establish relations with people is the key to success – it will enable you to win the customers’ trust, making them more cooperative.

5. Continue to expand your knowledge about the products and presentation techniques.

6. Always place the customer’s needs first – your priority is to identify and meet them.

7. Be respectful to the customers, avoid controversial subjects and leave a good impression, even if the meeting does not bring the expected results.

8. Allow potential customers to sample the products – you can do it during the presentation or hand out samples.

9. Always be professional – wear proper clothes, prepare for the meeting or presentation, be punctual and remember what you have already established with the customer.

10. Practice makes perfect – be open to trying new things, learn and work on yourself.

This is a valid statement, but might not be an adequate recommendation for all people of all ages with differing nutritional and health needs. For many people, food supplements can provide nutritional support for a balanced diet. It is important to eat regularly and balance your food choices in the right proportions.

However, in a modern, fast-paced lifestyle, we often have to negotiate daily challenges and interactions that distract us from planning and eating a well-balanced diet.

The food we eat and the exercise we do can have a huge impact on our future well-being. Adopting a healthy lifestyle can contribute towards achieving and maintaining our body’s optimum well-being and may reduce our risk of developing lifestyle-related ailments.

Good nutrition supports both optimal well-being and an increased capacity for physical and mental activity. Consider these five principles and get the best out of your body:

• Good nutrition

• Regular exercise

• Avoid harmful factors

• Adequate rest

• Positive attitude

Applying these principles will contribute to long-term benefits as your well-being can be optimised over time.

FIND YOUR BALANCEA balanced and wholesome diet ensures the supply of macronutrients such as carbohydrates, fats and proteins as well as the intake of vitamins, minerals, fibre and secondary plant substances. To guarantee a balanced supply of all nutrients, we should choose food from all seven food groups that are visible in the picture in the right side of this page.

IF YOU CANNOT GET ALL THE NUTRIENTS YOU NEED FROM YOUR DIET, THEN YOU MAY NEED TO TAKE FOOD SUPPLEMENTS.

A HEALTHY AND BALANCED DIET

CEREALS AND POTATOES

provide a high amount of carbohydrates, high-quality protein, vitamins, minerals (especially B vitamins, iron, zinc and manganese) and secondary plant substances but little fat. Especially whole-grain products are rich in valuable ingredients and contain a high amount of fibre. Fibre leads to sustained saturation.

MILK AND DAIRY PRODUCTS

deliver high amounts of calcium, protein, vitamins and iodine, but it is best to choose low-fat dairy products.

MEAT, SAUSAGE, FISH AND EGGS

are a good source of protein. Meat products are particularly rich in B-vitamins, iron and zinc, but also include high amounts of fats and cholesterol. Therefore, it’s better to enjoy them in moderation. A good source of omega-3-fatty acids and iodine is sea-fish and sea-food in general.

OILS AND FATS

act as structure for body cells, ensure the absorption and transport of fat-soluble vitamins and provide essential fatty acids, but also contain a lot of energy. Opt for plant oils such as rapeseed oil, try to avoid solid fats and limit saturated fats and trans-fats.

WATER

The daily need is approximately 30 ml per kg body weight. As a result women should drink roughly 2.0 l and men should drink 2.5 l water per day. To supply the body adequately, we should opt for water and sugar-free tea.

VEGETABLES

like salad or dried pulses contain a lot of vitamins (especially vitamin A, β-carotene, vitamin C, vitamin K, folate and vitamin B6), minerals, secondary plant substances and fibre but little fat. Pulses additionally include a high amount of plant protein.

FRUIT

including all fresh fruit, dried fruit and nuts. Generally, the higher the diversity of types, preparation styles and colours, the better the body is fed. Be careful with nuts - they are a good source of mono unsaturated fatty acids, poly unsaturated fatty acids, protein and fibre, but they contain a high amount of fat as well.

MACRONUTRIENTS

Basic nutrition is composed of three main macronutrients: protein, fat, and carbohydrates.

Proteins are the body’s building blocks – they help us grow and repair our cells. Fat stores energy for the long term and is also a great barrier for our cells and body. Carbohydrates are used for immediate energy, like quick fuel.

MICRONUTRIENTS

In addition to macronutrients, we need micronutrients – vitamins and minerals.

‘Micro’ because we need them in much smaller quantities every day, even though they play a big role in the body by saving all our metabolic functions. The human body cannot or cannot sufficiently manufacture all micronutrients to sustain life.

They must be obtained from specific foods or specific combinations of foods. It takes some effort and variety in our diet to get the optimal daily amount of vitamins and minerals.

PHYTONUTRIENTS

Phytonutrients are organic components found in plants that are thought to be beneficial for human health.

The term ‘phyto’ originates from a Greek word meaning plant. Fruit, vegetables, grains, legumes, nuts, and teas are all rich sources of phytonutrients. They help protect plants from germs, fungi, and other threats. And when absorbed by our bodies, phytonutrients can help us stay healthy and keep our bodies working properly.

did you know?FOLLOWING A VARIED AND BALANCED DIET, 45%-60% OF DAILY ENERGY INTAKE SHOULD COME FROM CARBOHYDRATES.

CARBOHYDRATESCarbohydrates are the main fuel required by the body in order to provide energy. The most common and abundant are sugars, fibres and starches.

The basic building block of a carbohydrate is a sugar molecule, a simple union of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. Starches and fibres are essentially chains of sugar molecules. Carbohydrates are grouped into two main categories:

• Simple carbohydrates that include sugars such as fruit sugar (fructose), corn or grape sugar (dextrose or glucose), and table sugar (sucrose)

• Complex carbohydrates that include everything made of three or more linked sugars, for example glycogen oder amylose

FUNCTIONS OF CARBOHYDRATES

The digestive system handles all carbohydrates in a similar way – it works to attempt to break them down into single sugar molecules, since only these are small enough to be absorbed into the bloodstream. The resulting glucose (also known as blood sugar), is used in all cells as a universal energy source. The exception is fibre, a non-digestive complex carbohydrate. It is put together in such a way that it cannot be broken down into sugar molecules by human body, and so passes through the body, largely undigested.

SOURCES OF CARBOHYDRATE

COMPLEX

Bran, wheat germ, barley, maize, buckwheat, cornmeal, oatmeal, potatoes, other root vegetables, wholemeal breads, whole grain cereals, high-fibre breakfast cereals, porridge oats

now?O DAILY

ED AMOUNT HICH IS 25-30 G

FIBREDietary fibres are not nutrients in the classical sense, but have proven to be of great importance for our well-being. They are composed of indigestible complex plant carbohydrates that are partly metabolised by our gut bacterias.

There are two types of fibre which are mainly found in plant cell walls:

• Soluble Fibre, such as gums, pectins and resistant starches.

• Insoluble Fibre, such as cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin.

FUNCTION OF FIBRE

• Rye fibre contributes to normal bowel function.

• Wheat bran fibre contributes to an acceleration of intestinal transit.

• Barley, oat and wheat grain fibre contribute to an increase in faecal bulk.

DAILY NEED

A total dietary intake of at least 25 g – 30 g per day is regarded as desirable.

SOURCES OF FIBRE

Most plant foods contain both types of fibre, but they can be higher in one type than the other. Fruits and vegetables are generally an equal mixture of both.

FATSFats provide a convenient and concentrated source of energy, another requirement for fat in the diet is to enable the fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E and K to be absorbed from food. Fats are a group of chemical compounds composed of fatty acids and glycerol.

ESSENTIAL FATTY ACIDS

These are poly-unsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) which can’t be produced in the body and must be provided through diet. The two major ones are linoleic acid (omega-6 fatty acid) and alpha-linolenic acid (omega-3 fatty acid). Within the body both can be converted to other PUFAs such as arachidonic acid (the precursor for eicosanoid hormones), and, to a limited extent, to eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). Both are omega-3 fatty acids.

TRANS FATTY ACIDS

Trans fatty acids are mainly found in processed food. They are by-products of partial hydrogenation, a process in which some of the missing hydrogen atoms are put back into poly-unsaturated fats.

CHOLESTEROL

Cholesterol is a fat-like substance. Both fat and cholesterol belong to a larger family of chemical compounds called lipids. Cholesterol is used to build cell membranes and brain and nerve tissues. Cholesterol also helps the body to produce steroid hormones needed for body regulation, including processing food and bile acids needed for fat-digestion. Only food of animal origin contains cholesterol. As the body can produce enough cholesterol for all of its needs, it is not necessary for people to consume dietary cholesterol.

SOURCE OF FAT

Saturated fatty acids are mostly found in foods of animal origin. Mono-unsaturated and poly-unsaturated fatty acids are mostly found in foods of plant origin and some seafoods. Fatty acids are molecules composed mostly of carbon and hydrogen atoms. Fatty acids differ from one another by their number of carbons, and the number of double-bonds between the carbons:

• Saturated fatty acids have only single-bonds and are ‘saturated’ with hydrogen atoms

• Mono-unsaturated fatty acids have one double-bond and are missing 1 pair of hydrogen atoms

• Poly-unsaturated fatty acids have more than one double-bond and are missing more than one pair of hydrogen atoms

did you know?EPA AND DHA ARE FOUND ALMOST EXCLUSIVELY IN OILY FISH, WHEREAS ALA IS FOUND IN SOME PLANT OILS, BUT MOSTLY IN LOW AMOUNTS.

OMEGA-3 FATTY ACIDSOmega-3 fatty acids are poly-unsaturated fatty acids. Poly-unsaturated fatty acids are essential nutrients for humans and are particularly important structural components of all cell membranes, influencing their function.

FUNCTIONS OF OMEGA-3 FATTY ACIDS

Omega-3 fatty acids can be divided into three major types, which have different functions: EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid), DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid), ALA (alpha-linolenic acid).

DAILY NEED

A total intake of 1 g of omega-3 fatty acids per day from all sources is believed to be sufficient under normal conditions. A daily intake of 250 mg of EPA and DHA contributes to the maintenance of normal heart function. A daily intake of 250 mg of DHA contributes to the maintenance of normal vision and brain function.

SOURCES OF OMEGA-3 FATTY ACIDS

TYPE SOURCE

ANIMALFish, especially rich fat, like: eel, herring, salmon, haddock, tuna

PLANTLinseed, pumpkin seeds, walnut, rapeseed and soybean oils

OMEGA-6 FATTY ACIDSLinoleic acid is the primary omega-6 fatty acid. The body converts linoleic acid into gamma linolenic acid (GLA), which will later be synthesised, along with EPA from the omega-3 group, into eicosanoid hormones (localised tissue hormones).

Eicosanoids are tissue hormones which are involved in a number of physiological and pathological processes. These include blood clotting, vasodilation, inflammation regulation and a number of other processes.

LECITHINLecithin, a phospholipid, acts as a natural emulsifier of fatty substances. Lecithin is also a good source of choline, sometimes referred to as a B vitamin, and linoleic acid, an essential fatty acid.

FUNCTIONS OF LECITHIN

Lecithins belong to the group of phospholipids and are part of the membranes of all animals and plants. Lecithins consist of fatty acids, glycerol, phosphoric acid and choline.

SOURCES OF LECITHIN

PLANT Peanuts, legumes, soybeans

WATERShould not be forgotten as a nutrient as it has nutritional properties that are vital to human well-being.

Over two-thirds of the body is made up of water, yet water cannot be supplied by or stored by the body. Therefore, a regular supply is essential in order to avoid dehydration and other health conditions. Water contributes to the maintenance of normal regulation of the body’s temperature. At least 2 litres of water, from all sources, should be consumed per day.

PROTEINProtein consists of 20 major amino acids of which nine are classified as essential. Essential amino acids cannot be made by the body and must be supplied by food.

FUNCTIONS OF PROTEIN/AMINO ACIDS

The human body requires protein as a source of energy as well as a source of amino acids. Proteins, or rather the essential amino acids contained therein, are the body’s building blocks, required for growth and maintenance of cell structures. Protein is present in every cell in the body and is a key component of bones, muscles, skin, hair and blood.

DAILY NEED

Under normal circumstances, a protein supply of 0.8-1.0 g per kg of bodyweight per day is regarded as sufficient in adults.

SOURCES OF PROTEIN

TYPE SOURCE

ANIMAL Meat, fish, eggs

PLANTSoybeans and other legumes, potatoes and whole grain products

DAIRY Milk, cheese

SOURCES OF AMINO ACIDS

The quality of protein depends on its content of essential amino acids and their ratio to each other. In general, animal protein is of a higher quality than plant protein, due to the pattern of essential amino acids which more closely match the pattern of human requirements. On the other hand, combinations of diverse sources of protein, both animal and plant protein, can yield very high protein qualities as well. An excellent source of high-quality plant protein are legumes, especially soybeans.

VITAMIN AVitamin A describes the entirety of all compounds having biological activity of Vitamin A (Retinoides) and is a major fat-soluble vitamin.

Carotenoids are the plant precursors of vitamin A, found in deep yellow, green and orange coloured fruit and vegetables.

FUNCTIONS OF VITAMIN A

• Vitamin A contributes to maintaining normal vision, skin and mucous membranes.

• It supports the normal iron metabolism and the normal functioning of the immune system.

• Furthermore, it plays a role in the process of cell specialisation.

METABOLISM OF VITAMIN A

The liver regulates the level of vitamin A in the blood. Vitamin A needs a special protein carrier to be transported throughout the body and an adequate protein and fat intake is required for a good absorption of vitamin A.

DAILY NEED

Over 250 million people worldwide are affected by a vitamin deficiency. But it is also easy to get too much. A frequent high intake of liver, for example, may result in chronic overdosing of vitamin A. Pregnant women especially should make sure that they get just the correct amount of vitamin A needed. The current EU NRV for vitamin A is 800 μg.

did you know?WATER-SOLUBLE VITAMINS DISSOLVE EASILY IN WATER, BUT THE BODY CANNOT STORE THEM. THIS IS WHY DAILY INTAKE AND REPLENISHMENT IS SO IMPORTANT. THE WATER-SOLUBLE VITAMINS ARE B VITAMINS AND VITAMIN C.

NRV80 mg80 mg

VITAMIN CVitamin C or L-ascorbic acid is absorbed by an active transport system located in the gut, and excreted through the kidneys. Human beings are one of only three mammal species that cannot produce their own supply of Vitamin C.

FUNCTIONS OF VITAMIN C

Vitamin C is a valuable water-soluble antioxidant which supports the protection of cells from oxidative stress caused by free radicals and also contributes towards normal functioning of the immune system, even during and after intense physical exercise. It helps to reduce tiredness and fatigue and contributes to healthy skin as well as connective tissue in skin, muscles and organs. It increases iron absorption. It is absorbed by an active transport system located in the gut, and excreted through the kidneys. Vitamin C also contributes to the regeneration of reduced form of vitamin E.

COLLAGEN

Collagen is the principal constituent of connective tissue, including bones, teeth, cartilage, tendons, ligaments, skin and blood vessels. The very structure of the body depends on collagen, and the integrity of collagen also depends on Vitamin C. Vitamin C contributes to the normal collagen formation.

IMMUNE SYSTEM AND OTHER FUNCTIONS

Vitamin C assists the immune system in two of its primary functions; by stimulating the production of white blood cells which attack foreign invaders, and also to boost the body’s production of antibodies (which are produced by cells as a reaction to infection).It aids iron absorption, especially from plant sources in the non-heme form (grains, dried beans, lentils, vegetables, fruits, nuts and seeds).

DAILY NEED

The current EU NRV for vitamin C is 80 mg daily. Keep in mind that Vitamin C can be readily lost from foods during preparation, cooking or storage. That’s the reason why storage times should be kept short and soaking and storing in water should be avoided.

VITAMIN B8 vitamins are essential for an astonishing array of life functions, but their primary task is to assist in the release of energy from carbohydrates, fats and proteins, helping to keep you alert. The B vitamins are precursors of coenzymes which in turn influence specific metabolic pathways.

FUNCTIONS OF B VITAMINS

• Thiamine (vitamin B1) contributes to the normal energy-yielding metabolism. For example, it assists the metabolism of carbohydrates into glucose for energy. Also, it supports the proper functioning of the nervous system and heart.

• Riboflavin (vitamin B2) supports the maintenance of normal vision and skin as it contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress. It helps to reduce tiredness and fatigue and the normal functioning of the nervous system. Furthermore, the regular energy-yielding metabolism is supported.

• Niacin (vitamin B3) helps to reduce tiredness and fatigue and the normal functioning of the nervous system. It supports the regular energy-yielding metabolism and maintenance of normal mucous membranes and skin.

• Pantothenic Acid (vitamin B5) contributes to normal synthesis and metabolism of steroid hormones, vitamin D and some neurotransmitters. Furthermore, it contibutes to normal mental performance.

• Pyridoxine (vitamin B6) contributes to normal red blood cell formation and metabolism of homocysteine, protein and glycogen. It also supports the normal function of the nervous system.

• Folic Acid (Folate/vitamin B9) contributes to many functions, including maternal tissue growth during pregnancy, normal blood formation, homocysteine metabolism. It has a role in the process of cell division.

• Cyanocobalamin (vitamin B12) supports the normal red blood cell formation, functioning of the nervous system and homocysteine metabolism.

• Biotin (vitamin H) contributes to normal macronutrient metabolism and to the maintenance of normal hair and skin.

did you know?B VITAMINS ARE FRAGILE AND CAN BE DESTROYED BY EXPOSURE TO HIGH TEMPERATURES, PROLONGED STORAGE AND FOOD PREPARATION (WASHING, EXTENSIVE COOKING ANAD ‘LEACHING’ INTO THE COOKING LIQUID). INDUSTRIAL PROCESSING OF CERTAIN FOODS (FOR EXAMPLE, REFINING CEREALS LIKE RICE AND WHEATMEAL) CAN DIMINISH THE B VITAMIN CONTENT SIGNIFICANTLY.

ABSORPTION OF B VITAMINS:

All B vitamins are absorbed in the small intestine through special transport systems. Vitamin B12 has a special role, as it is bound to proteins in food. To be absorbed, it must be bound by the instrinsic factor, which is produced by the stomach. The resulting cobalamin-intrinsic factor complex can then be absorbed in the small intestine.

DAILY NEED

For almost all demographic groups in Europe the supply of folic acid through the normal diet is not enough to meet the NRVs; also for many of the elderly a sufficient supply of B12 and B6 is deemed critical.

did you know?MANY STUDIES HAVE REPORTED A PREVALENCE OF LOW VITAMIN D INTAKE, VITAMIN D DEFICIENCY OR INADEQUATE VITAMIN D STATUS IN EUROPE. MOST PEOPLE ARE NOT ABLE TO ATTAIN THE RECOMMENDED DAILY INTAKE!

NRV5 μgNRV5 μg

VITAMIN DVitamin D refers to any of several fat-soluble, sterol-based variations of this vitamin, the most effective ones being cholecalciferol (vitamin D3) and ergocalciferol (vitamin D2). This means the compounds are similar to cholesterol, with a waxy, fatty component, and can be stored by the body.

FUNCTIONS OF VITAMIN D

The strength and resistance of teeth and bones depends on their mineralisation. Vitamin D supports the absorption of mineral calcium. Calcium in turn is essential for bone mineralisation. Vitamin D is a good ‘team player’, as it interacts with other essential nutrients. Thus, it contributes to the maintenance of normal bones. Further, it plays a role in the process of cell division, thus it contributes to normal functioning of the immune system. The active form of Vitamin D is produced in the kidney and acts as a hormone. It enters the blood to affect other parts of the body, especially the bones.

DAILY NEED

Vitamin D is sometimes referred to as the ‘sunshine vitamin’ because it can be manufactured within human skin through the exposure of precursors to ultraviolet (UV) rays from sunlight. For anyone with dark pigmented skin, those living in a cloudy or polluted environment, those who experience long winters, or who do not spend enough time outside in daylight, the body’s production of the sunshine vitamin is likely to be too little to cover a deficiency in the diet. Therefore, the current recommended EU NRV for adults is 5 μg daily. However too much vitamin D can be toxic, with acute or chronic negative effects, such as the imbalancing of the calcium metabolism, which can cause a deposition of Vitamin D in the organs.

SOURCES OF VITAMIN D

As a fat-soluble substance vitamin D naturally occurs in the fat fraction of animal-derived foods only, whereas its precursors, the so-called provitamins, are widely distributed in plants and animal-derived foods.

BONE MINERALISATION DURING LIFE

Bone is continuously reforming, therefore maintaining an adequate calcium level is required for maintaining normal bone formation, the balance between bone breakdown and reforming changes as people age. During childhood, there is a higher amount of bone formation and less breakdown. In adulthood, these processes balance to relative equality. As we age, bone breakdown exceeds the rate of formation. When not getting enough dietary calcium every day the body may draw it from your bones to nourish your heart and muscles. This can result in bone loss, which can increase the risk of osteoporosis.

IRONAlmost two-thirds of iron in the body is found in blood haemoglobin; smaller amounts are found in muscle myoglobin. Iron is an essential trace mineral and forms part of many oxygen and electron transfer groups in the body.

FUNCTIONS OF IRON

Iron supports the normal formation of haemoglobin and red blood cells. Red blood cells carry oxygen from the lungs to all tissues via the bloodstream and supply of oxygen to muscles. As a result, iron helps to transport oxygen in the body. Further, iron helps to reduce tiredness and fatigue and contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism.

DAILY NEED

The EU NRV established for iron is 14 mg daily. European surveys indicate that some groups have critical or below adequate amounts of iron in their diet. These groups include the elderly, adolescent females and women of child bearing age. Excess iron intake can be toxic, advocating strict supervision of iron supplements, in particular for children. The body regulates iron stores depending upon its need, by increasing its absorption rate when stores are low.

SOURCES OF IRON

There are two forms of dietary iron: Heme iron, derived from haemoglobin, is found in animal sources (meat). Non-heme iron is found in plant foods.

IODINEIodine is a non-metallic trace element, unique among necessary trace minerals due to the fact that it is an essential component of specific hormones. Iodine is required in the human body as part of the hormones produced by the thyroid gland.

FUNCTIONS OF IODINE

Iodine contributes to the normal production of thyroid hormones and normal thyroid function. Thyroid cells are the only cells in the body which can absorb iodine. Thyroid tissue has the specific property of taking up iodine, storing it, and subsequently releasing it in controlled amounts in the form of thyroid hormones. Every cell in the body depends on thyroid hormones for regulation of their metabolism. If thyroid secretion is deficient, the basal metabolism falls, the circulation is reduced, and the whole tempo of life is slowed down. When iodine levels are not adequate, this entire hormonal process and system is compromised. Deficiency of this trace element can cause a number of serious issues connected with well-being at various stages from prenatal development to adulthood. The effects of deficiency range from hypothyroidism to mental problems. Adult symptoms include goitre (an enlargement of the thyroid gland), and slower response times. In addition, iodine contributes to normal cognitive function and normal functioning of nervous system.

DAILY NEED

The current EU NRV establishes that all adults should consume 150 μg of iodine daily.

SOURCES OF IODINE

CAROTENOIDSCarotenoids are fat-soluble phytonutrients, originally used as colourings and now known as nutrients such as precursors of vitamin A and antioxidants. A few of the major ones are beta-carotene, alpha-carotene, lutein, zeaxanthin and lycopene.

FUNCTIONS OF CAROTENOIDS

Many carotenoids can give one available electron to neutralise free radicals. Free radicals cause oxidative damage which has been linked to the onset of premature ageing, age-related macular degeneration and other conditions.

LUTEIN AND ZEAXANTHIN

The eyes are repositories for carotenoids, with lutein and zeaxanthin concentrated in the retina and lens. The phytonutrient lutein is a member of the carotenoid family and is a natural pigment found in a number of plant sources. Zeaxanthin is a rarer chemical cousin of the carotenoid lutein, but is actually quite different in molecular structure.

LYCOPENE

The phytonutrient lycopene is an open-chain unsaturated carotenoid (natural pigment) compound.

SOURCES OF CAROTENOIDS

All coloured fruit and vegetables are good sources of carotenoids, but as fat-soluble substances, their absorption is largely dependent on their preparation with oils or fats.

POLYPHENOLSPolyphenols are classed in subcategories, which consist of (bio) flavonoids (the most abundant group), phenolic acids, stilbenes and lignans. Several thousand flavonoids have been identified, which provide much of the flavour and colour in fruits, vegetables, berries and flowers.

ELLAGIC ACID

Ellagic acid is known as phenolic acid. Raspberries are the best natural source of ellagic acid, but it can also found in strawberries, kiwis, cranberries, walnuts, pecans and pomegranates.

EGCG (EPIGALLOCATECHIN-GALLATE)

A component of green tea is the phytonutrient EGCG (epigallocatechin-gallate), which is chemically categorised as a polyphenol catechin. EGCG has an antioxidation capacity.

HESPERIDIN

The phytonutrient hesperidin is a flavonoid found abundantly in citrus fruits, and is the predominant flavonoid in both lemons and oranges. The peel and membranous parts of these fruits have the highest hesperidin concentrations.

BILBERRY

Bilberry has been valued for centuries as a nutritious food and as a wild edible delicacy. Bilberry contains many different phenolic compounds that have antioxidative properties.

HERBALSIn many parts of the world herbals have been traditionally used. For example China is known for its traditional herbal medicines which date back thousands of years, and India has a traditional herbal medicine, known as Ayurveda. In Europe, some herbals have also been recognised to positively influence the body by having certain functions.

ECHINACEA

The purple coneflower, or echinacea, is commonly processed into a liquid or a dry extract. There are 9 known species of echinacea, the most commonly used is Ecinacea purpurea. Echinacea purpurea helps the function of the natural defensive system.

GINKGO BILOBA

Ginkgo is the oldest living tree species, and one of the most well-researched herbs in the world. It helps to maintain memory when ageing and to preserve cognitive functions.

GARLIC

Garlic has been used throughout history as a herbal panacea, and current research confirms its role as beneficial to human well-being. Garlic contributes to the normal immune function. It also helps to maintain normal blood lipid levels. As a growing herb, garlic has an excellent, although smelly, natural anti-microbial ability to disable an unusually wide variety of infectious organisms (for example, soil parasites and plant fungi). It is believed that when taken as a supplement, this natural defence can play a role in helping to improve the body’s resistance.

GINSENG (SIBERIAN)

There are different types of ginseng. Each has similar properties. Siberian ginseng (Eleutherococcus senticosus) contributes to normal blood circulation, which is associated with brain performance and reactivity. It is often referred to as a tonic for the support of mental and physical capacities in cases of weakness, exhaustion and tiredness, and during convalescence. Siberian ginseng also supports the immune system.

PRIMROSE OIL

Primrose oil is derived from the seeds of the evening primrose plant, and is a rich source of the fatty acid gamma-linolenic acid.

BOSWELLIA

1. Stable oxygen atom: 8 electrons

2. Oxygen atom loses one electron due to oxidation: free radical

3. The antioxidant can donate one electron. Donated electron neutralises free radical.

Free Radicals

Some phytonutrients are known to have one extra electron available that can be given to free radicals. Free radical attack has been linked to the onset of premature ageing, age-related macular degeneration and other conditions.

Oxidative damage caused by free radicals:

1. While oxygen is absolutely essential to life, it can also be damaging. Free radicals are oxygen molecules in our body that have been oxidised (damaged) by sunlight, smoke, pollution, stress and even just everyday eating and breathing.

2. Free radical molecules are missing one of the eight electrons they are supposed to have and are out of balance. They ‘steal’ electrons from other molecules, thereby creating more free radicals. These donor molecules not only become damaged as a result, but can become free radicals themselves. This oxidative stress chain reaction has the potential to damage every cell in our body, even our DNA. Over time, this damage can permanently affect our cells’ ability to recover; our skin ages prematurely and we become more vulnerable to disease.

3. Antioxidants can stop the oxidative stress chain reaction. Antioxidants can cope with electron losses. They donate one electron to the free radical in order to neutralise it and turn it into a stable radical.

DAILY NEED

In general, consumption of 400 g daily of different fruit and vegetables is recommended to ensure you get a sufficient dose of phytonutrients. Antioxidants are the body’s natural defence against the oxidative stress which leads to free radical damage. While certain vitamins have antioxidant properties, there are also other nutrient compounds, such as polyphenols, and minerals as copper, selenium and zinc which have antioxidant functions in addition to other properties.

The skin is about 2 square metres, the largest and also one of the most sensitive organs of the human body. It regulates body temperature, allows us to feel heat, cold and pain and provides protection against injury.

Collagen and hyaluronic acid work together: Hyaluronic acid moisturises the skin collagen fibres, to help them stay flexible. Collagen binds hyaluronic acid which in turn binds hundreds of times its volume in water.

We care for the skin from outside. But nourish and build it up from inside, through the nutrients we eat. Our digestive system extracts nutrients from the diet, and our blood circulation brings them to the places where they are needed – right down to each skin cell.

Vitamin C contributes to the normal collagen formation for the normal function of the skin. Furthermore, Vitamin A and Zinc support the maintenance of normal skin.

The skin is made of layers. The outermost layer- the layer you can see is the EPIDERMIS. The layer beneath is the DERMIS. In this lower level, lies a matrix of collagen, elastin fibres and hyaluronic acid that provide strength, resilience and elasticity to skin.

HEALTHY VISION AND THE EYE

The human eye can be compared to a camera which gathers, focuses, and transmits light through a lens to create an image of the environment. The eye is made up of the following structures:• CORNEAS transmit incoming light.• PUPILS determine the amount of incoming light.• IRISES control the size of the pupil.• LENSES focus light rays.• RETINAS convert and send nerve impulses to the optic nerve.• RODS aid night and peripheral vision.• CONES help with detail and focus.• OPTIC NERVES carry images from each eye to your brain.

UNDERSTANDING THE SKELETAL SYSTEM

The skeletal system performs a number of vital functions including support, movement, protection, blood cell production, calcium storage, and endocrine regulation.• STRUCTURAL – Bones are hard and very strong, providing support

for your body.• MOVEMENT – Bones are connected by joints, which help bones move.• PROTECTION – Bones protect organs that are housed within them

(for example, the brain inside of the skull).• BLOOD CELL PRODUCTION – Bone marrow is the tissue comprising

the centre of large bone; it’s where new blood cells are produced.• RESERVOIR – Bones store two main minerals, calcium and

phosphorus, that are essential to other body systems.• ENDOCRINE REGULATION – Bones help regulate hormones to

maintain adequate supplies of calcium and phosphorus.

WHAT IT IS AND HOW IT WORKS

The brain is the most complex part of the human body. This three-pound organ is the centre of intelligence, interpreter of the senses, initiator of body movement, and controller of behaviour. The brain is designed to receive information from the rest of the body, interpret that information, and guide the body’s response to it. The brain is made up of many specialised areas that work together:1. FRONTAL LOBE – motor function and judgement2. PARIETAL LOBE – sensation, handwriting3. TEMPORAL LOBE – memory, hearing4. OCCIPITAL LOBE – vision

The brain is surrounded by a layer of tissue called the meninges. The skull (cranium) helps protect the brain from injury.

THE CIRCULATORY SYSTEM AND CARDIOVASCULAR HEALTH

Combined with the cardiovascular system, the circulatory system helps support the body’s immune system, helps the body maintain a normal body temperature, and provides the right chemical balance to maintain homeostasis among all the body’s systems. The circulatory system consists of three main components:1. THE HEART pumps blood and keeps it moving.2. BLOOD carries nutrients, water, oxygen, antibodies, and waste

products to and from your cells.3. BLOOD VESSELS• Arteries carry oxygenated blood away from the heart toward the rest

of your body.• Veins carry deoxygenated blood to the heart.• Capillaries connect arteries and veins.

NUTRILITE™ OMEGA-3 COMPLEXNUTRILITE OMEGA-3 COMPLEX food supplement contains essential omega-3 fatty acids that are not synthesised by the human body and need to come from the diet. They are vital for the heart, and your body needs them if the diet does not regularly include 1-2 portions of fish per week.

WHY NUTRILITE?

• The blend of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) comes from the richest in omega-3 fatty acids; salmon, anchovy, mackerel and sardines harvested from the deep and cold waters of the ocean.

• No artificial sweeteners, colours, flavours or preservatives added.

WHO NEEDS IT?

• Those whose diet does not regularly include 1-2 portions of fish per week.

• Those who lack omega-3 fatty acids due to a low intake of foods rich in them, such as most fish, seafood, leafy vegetables, canola oil, soybean oil and walnuts.

TALKING POINTS

• Helps supply the essential fatty acids that may be missing in a diet.

• The two active components of omega-3 complex (EPA and DHA) support the normal function of the heart. The beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 250 mg of EPA and DHA.

WHO NEEDS IT?

• Those who do not consume adequate amounts of milk, meat, cheese or other high-protein foods.

• Those who exercise a lot and may need extra protein in their diet.

• Those concerned about calories and fat in their diets.

• Those who skip meals or eat small portions.

• Children (over three years), adolescents, the elderly, pregnant or breastfeeding women who require additional protein.

WHY NUTRILITE?

• Acerola cherries are grown on our certified environmentally sensitive farms.

• Contains citrus bioflavonoid concentrates dried from whole fruits including lemons, mandarin, oranges and grapefruit.

• No artificial sweeteners, colours, flavours or preservatives added.

• Contributes to the normal functioning of the immune system and supports its standard functions during and after intense physical exercise.

• Contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress.

• This supplement provides 240 mg of vitamin C, with slow and steady release into the body to maximise absorption.

WHO NEEDS IT?

• Those who don’t get enough vitamin C through natural foods like citrus fruit, broccoli or Brussels sprouts.

• Those who want to support their immune system and/or increase their antioxidant protection against free-radical damage (e.g., people living stressful lives).

NUTRILITE™ VITAMIN C PLUSVitamin C supports your immune system and helps protect cells against free-radical damage. The body doesn’t produce its own vitamin C, therefore it is essential to replenish it daily as part of a well-balanced diet. The extended release formula found in NUTRILITE Vitamin C Plus provides eight hours of vitamin C in just a single tablet. This highly effective vitamin C food supplement is made from two vitamin C sources: acerola cherries (derived from natural sources), known for being one of the most concentrated sources of vitamin C, and ascorbic acid.

L-Ascorbic acid is the chemical name for vitamin C. In fact, synthetic L-ascorbic acid and ascorbic acid found in food are chemically identical. Vitamin C was first made in a lab in the 1930s. Nutrilite scientists concluded that the most effective way to pack 240 milligrams of vitamin C into each tablet of vitamin C extended release is a combination of vitamin C from acerola cherries – grown on our own sustainable farms in Brazil – and ascorbic acid derived from glucose.

why use ascorbic acid?

This is the

NORMAL size of a vitamin C tablet*.

This is how

bodykey by NUTRILITE™Genetics play an important part in understanding nutrient metabolism and such knowledge is now being applied to help people manage their weight. bodykey by NUTRILITE™ uses scientific methods to analyse your genes in order to find out how your body responds to nutrition and physical activity. This analysis, along with information about your lifestyle, food and exercise preferences, will then determine your very own Diet and Exercise Plan. Having a plan that is so personalised to you and your needs means you’re more likely to stick with it and maintain the weight loss in the long term.

While there are a multitude of diets you could choose, it’s fair to say that most offer a one-size-fits-all solution and fail to respect that each person is unique, as well as his or her needs.

Some time ago, Nutrilite Health Institute (NHI) researchers started investigating concept studies that showed a correlation between genetic predisposition and weight loss. The NHI examined these findings and worked with other scientists, nutritionists and exercise experts to develop a new weight loss programme that works with each one’s individuality. A simple, Genetic Test which is 100% secure and confidential, will help personalise a programme just for you.

* Minors and people with a BMI below 18.5 are excluded

from the bodykey by NUTRILITE programme. Women during

pregnancy and breastfeeding women, and people with a BMI

above 30 should consult their doctor before participating

in the bodykey by NUTRILITE programme. Please note that

Amway™ will automatically exclude women during pregnancy

and breastfeeding women from participation in the weight

loss programme unless approval is provided by their doctor.

THIS PROGRAMME MEETS THE GUIDELINES DEVELOPED BY THE NUTRILITE HEALTH INSTITUTE CENTRE FOR OPTIMAL HEALTH (NHI) FOR HEALTHY EATING AND DIETING.

TALKING POINTS

• The bilayer tablet allows dual action technology, a combination of both instant and extended release technologies. This ensures that B vitamins are released to the body at the optimal time.

• Delivers all eight essential B vitamins. Instant release provides a boost of Vitamin B12 and B2, while extended release provides six more B vitamins for full eight hours.

• Based on research, our scientists selected the vitamins for the instant versus extended release layer. Vitamin B12 for example must be released instantly to the stomach, because it needs to bind to a protein in the stomach and duodenum for absorption. If this vitamin were released at a later stage it could not be absorbed by the body anymore.

• To the reduction of tiredness and fatigue contributes B2, B3, B5, B6, B9 and B12.

• The normal energy-yielding metabolism is supported by B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B7 and B12.

• Take 1 stick per day (when engaging in high-intensity physical activity).

USAGE

• IsotonicAdd 1 stick pack to 400 ml of water for an isotonic drink.

Use for long or more intense workouts.

1001804 x 250 g airtight sealed foil packs

PREPARATION

Filter coffee needs to be infused with hot water. The amount used is subjective and depends on individual taste. The most common mistake is not using enough quantity of ground coffee. For best results, the coffee should be brewed just off the boil (95-98°C) and should not be left on a warmer for more than 15-20 minutes. Any leftover coffee should be discarded.

TALKING POINTS

• Made from 100% pure arabica beans.

• Airtight sealed after careful roasting to preserve the full aroma.

• Evenly roasted beans are used as base.

• Contains caffeine, a mild stimulant.

• Low in calories, fat and carbohydrates.

FILTER COFFEE

TALKING POINTS

• Made from 100% pure arabica beans.

• These coffee beans are not espresso-roasted to deliver an especially mild taste.

• They are packed using a one-way degassing valve to preserve the freshness of the newly roasted beans.

• They can be ground fine or coarse, allowing you to choose the consistency and grind to suit your preferred coffee-making method.

• Suitable for use in pan method of extraction or with filter methods.

COFFEE BEANSUsing coffee beans allows you to grind only what is needed for each brew. Grind the beans to the consistency of choice, as different coffee extraction methods require different grinds. For best results, remember the longer the brewing time, the coarser the grind.

RECOMMENDED USAGE

• In the Mediterranean, cuisine olive oil is traditionally used for all types of food preparation (roasting, frying, grilling, basting, dressings, marinades, cooking ingredient, etc.). However, due to the fact that the unsaturated fatty acids in olive oil may be destroyed at high temperatures, we do not recommend olive oil for frying, grilling and roasting.

ADVISORY

Store at room temperature, ideally 20°C. Precipitation (cloudy oil) may occur if stored below 7°C. This is a normal process as olive oil tends to solidify, and does not affect the quality of the product. If precipitation is present, store the oil at room temperature for up to eight hours for the solids to return to their liquid state.

GLOSSARY OF NUTRILITE™ BRAND TERMS

aACEROLA CHERRY:Fruit of the acerola tree, a tropical tree native to the Caribbean. Also known as the Barbados cherry, the acerola cherry is one of the richest known natural sources of vitamin C. Other natural sources of vitamin C include fruits in the citrus family. Vitamin C is a valuable antioxidant.

ALFALFA: The leaves of the alfalfa plant are rich in minerals and nutrients, including calcium, magnesium, potassium, carotene, vitamins E, K, B6 and eight essential amino acids. It is the NUTRILITE brand’s primary agricultural crop – found in a variety of NUTRILITE Food Supplements.

ALPHA-TOCOPHEROL:The most biologically active form of vitamin E.

AMINO ACIDS: The building blocks from which protein is made and into which it is broken down during digestion. Of the 20 standard proteinogenic amino acids, 9 are called essential amino acids. The human body cannot synthesise them from other compounds at the level needed for normal growth, so they must be supplied from food.

ANTIOXIDANT: Is a molecule capable of slowing or preventing the oxidation of other molecules by removing free radicals. That way, antioxidants help protect cell damage from free radicals. Well known antioxidants include vitamin C, vitamin E.

ASCORBIC ACID: Vitamin C – an antioxidant that helps fight free radicals.

bBATCH: A quantity of goods or material produced in a single manufacturing run.

BENEFICIAL (INSECTS): Insects that prey on organisms that are considered harmful to plant production.

BETA-CAROTENE: The plant form of vitamin A. Called the precursor of vitamin A or provitamin A. It is converted by the body into true vitamin A (retinol).

COMPOST: A mixture of decomposing plant refuse and animal manures for adding nutrients to the soil and conditioning the soil to optimise plant growth.

COMPRESSION: A term used to describe the process of compressing raw materials into tablets.

CONCENTRATION: Reduces the amount of water in the extracted solution to get more nutrients in a given quantity of liquid. The turbo film evaporator utilises a gentle evaporation process under vacuum to remove water and concentrate the liquid into 6–10 times as concentrated as the original plant.

COVER CROPS: Plants that are used in rotations, particularly legumes, for the nitrogen they supply. These plants, ploughed into the soil for humus, also loosen the soil, improve soil texture, may house beneficial insects and keep weeds down.

CROP LAND BALANCE: Working with the delicate environmental system in order to optimise plant growth.
