Healthy Supplements


A dietary supplement, also known as food supplement, is a preparation that supplies nutrients such as vitamins, minerals, fatty acids or amino acids that are missing or not consumed in a decent quantity in your daily diet. Dietary supplements also include herbs and botanicals. With the help of our scientists and medical doctors, research shows that ViSalus Vi-Pak has supplemental nutrients that are likely to have great health benefits and helps boost health and potentially lengthen lifespan.

Benefits of the Vi-Pak: Aids our body’s natural energy production, endurance and performance. Support overall immune system function along with stress and tension. Support healthy range of motion and support your body’s recovery process

Many physicians today recognize the importance of taking at least a daily multivitamin. Most agree that our American diet is less than desirable thus receiving less than the daily dietary intake of nutrients. We consume far too much processed food as well as fast foods on a daily basis. When our bodies do not get the nutrients we need, our systems start to break down and illness and disease follow. The human body is amazing. It was designed with the ability to heal itself, and given the proper nutrients, it will. This applies to our daily requirements of all vitamins and minerals, and in the proper amounts. However, in certain health conditions, numerous other supplements can play an important role in restoring and maintaining health.

Whether it be a deficiency in a vitamin or mineral, or the need for more than the recommended daily amount in certain conditions, adding more of the foods that supply them or a supplement is beneficial. Extra nutrients the Vi-Pak offers include but not limited to B vitamins, vitamin C, calcium and extra minerals, and antioxidants like grape seed extract and green tea extract, as well as acetyl-L-carnitine, a biological compound that stimulates antioxidant defenses and alpha lipoic acid that serves to enhance mitochondrial function, support better hearing, and has been used as a therapeutic agent in liver and brain disorders. The amounts of each ingredient have been carefully measured to provide the reported potential benefit.

Modern diets do not contain nearly enough omega-3 fatty acids. Omega-3s are important to heart and brain health and they support healthy joint movement. And there are many other health benefits when this balance is maintained. The best source of omega-3s are cold-water ocean fish, such as sardines, herring, mackerel, albacore tuna and salmon, but if you don’t eat two to three servings of these a week, a quality fish oil supplement is a good alternative. The ViSalus Omega Vitals in the Vi-Pak provides life enhancing oils to support health. Omega Vitals, or Essential Fatty Acids (EFA), are so-named because they are imperative for optimal health, cognitive function and cardiovascular support. These EFA’s function as building blocks for the membranes of every cell in the body. They also produce “prostaglandin families,” which are hormone-like substances necessary for energy metabolism and cardiovascular and immune health. Brain and nerve tissue consist of over 50% EFA’s!

Getting enough antioxidants is another concern for most people. The world we live in is toxic and we daily ingest free radicals from the food we eat, the water we drink and the air we breathe. Supplying our bodies with more antioxidants is beneficial to fight off these free radicals that can cause diseases like cancer. Some vitamins are antioxidants like vitamins E, C and CoQ10, as well as botanicals like green tea, grape skins and seeds, strawberries, blackberries, blueberries and pomegranates. Many antioxidant supplements contain a combination of several of these. Pine Bark is another powerful antioxidant in the Vi- Pak.  In nature, it protects trees from the damaging effects of the sun, weather, and other elements.  In the human body, however, Pine Bark Extract serves to help protect us from damaging oxidation that takes place with our every breath.
There is an herbal remedy for just about any condition. After all, herbs were the very first form of medicine and many have been around for thousands of years. Examples: black cohosh, soy and wild yam to help relieve menopausal symptoms; nettle root promotes virility in men; cinnamon extract benefits diabetes; ginseng promotes energy and cognitive function. These are just a few examples, and they have clinical studies to back them.
Important things to consider:
  • Tell your doctor about any dietary supplements you use
  • Do not take a bigger dose than the label recommends
  • Stop taking it if you have side effects

Based on 25 years of scientific study, including NIH (National Institute of Health) funded research, the Vi-Pak® was created by Dr. Seidman to provide the ultimate health protection. In today’s “insta-society” of fast food and hectic lifestyles, our bodies are paying the price. From processed foods to lack of sleep and high stress, we are fast forwarding the already short amount of time we have on this planet.

The Vi-Pak® uses four unique supplements to provide our bodies with the nutrients needed to operate at peak levels. Combining a Multi Mineral & Vitamin Formula and Supercharged Antioxidant with a patented Anti-Aging & Energy Complex and Omega Vitals Formulation, The Vi-Pak® is an unprecedented system for ultimate health and nutrition. Neatly divided into daily packets, you can not only protect your health with the traditional 1-month supply, but help others feel the benefits with a 3-day sample pack. If you want the most robust blend of ingredients to fuel your body deep in the cells, this is the product for you.
