3. What Causes Fatigue and Energy Loss Low or fluctuating blood sugar Nutritional deficiency Lack of exercise.. Resulting in lack of oxygen Carrying extra pounds Insufficient sleep Stress Toxic exposure Depression and mental overload Illness

4. The Role Of Mitochondria • Mitochondria are the energy packs of every cell… • Their job is to utilize oxygen and nutrients from food and convert them to energy. • When we don’t exercise, we don’t take in adequate levels of oxygen .. And the mitochondria suffer and decline. • Vivix improves energy levels because it increases the number of younger and more active mitochondria.

9. B Complex -- The Happy Vitamins The Energy Vitamins Essential for brain and nervous system Helps burn fat into energy Lost with sugar, refined carbohydrates ( salty snacks, breads and pastries, starchy foods), caffeine, alcohol, stress and medications. Fatigue, irritability, poor concentration, anxiety and depression—all can be signs of a B vitamin deficiency. That's because compounds in the B complex are needed for everything from the healthy maintenance of brain cells to the metabolism of carbohydrates, the brain's source of fuel. Bs are also necessary for production of neurotransmitters, which regulate mood and conduct messages through the brain. Psychology Today Aug 13, 2007

10. The subgroup of B6, B12 and folate is the subject of much research. Sufficient intake lowers rates of birth defects, cardiovascular disease, depression, dementia and Alzheimer's disease. B6 and B12 contribute to the myelin sheath around nerve cells, which speeds signals through the brain. B12 and folic acid together are needed for making normal cells, including blood cells. Inadequate B12 or folic acid can yield blood cells unable to carry vital oxygen to the brain. These three Bs aid in the manufacture of the excitatory neurotransmitter GABA, as well as serotonin and dopamine, neurotransmitters that regulate mood. Choline is one that shows promise. Found in protein-rich food such as eggs, it is needed by everyone for the production of cell membranes and for making the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, which affects memory. Pregnant women must also consume choline to support the rapid production of fetal brain cells. Pregnancy may prove to be the most decisive period for many nutrients. Animal studies by Duke University neuroscientist Christina Williams, Ph.D., have shown that a diet with four times the normal amount of choline during pregnancy can actually prevent memory decline in offspring as they reach old age. Supplemented animals also have superior memory throughout their own lives.

Shaklee 180 Smoothees and Bars / Energizing Soy Protein Traditional US breakfast foods -- high in carbohydrates … cereal, toast, bagels, pancakes, waffles, pastries at coffee shops, Must start the day with protein and fiber to stabilize blood sugar “Some sugars, such as the green plant foods, release more slowly into the blood stream than others. Other sugars enter the blood stream quickly, giving one a feeling of "pep" — but, just as rapidly, one sags. This "pep and sag" cycle occurs most pronouncedly when one consumes foods containing sucrose (refined sugar) such as candy or high fructose soda pop.” Blood Sugar and Healthy Eating by George Vigil, June 1, 2009 in Nutrition
