More About Gut Health

What is the gut microbiome?
The gut microbiome is a dynamic community of trillions of microorganisms that live in your digestive system, including bacteria, viruses, and fungi. It may not be the most appetizing thought, but a balanced and diverse gut microbiome is essential for optimal health.

What are probiotics?
You are your own ecosystem. Both good and bad bacteria live in and on your body. Probiotics are good bacteria. They help sustain a balanced microbial environment because they give the good guys a boost and keep the bad guys in check.

What are prebiotics?
Prebiotics are specialized dietary fibres that your body can’t digest – in a good way. They provide a food source for probiotics and other beneficial bacteria. And when good bacteria are well fed, your gut microbiome can really bloom.

What is a synbiotic?
A synbiotic (not symbiotic) is a combination of both probiotics and prebiotics that work together to support and enhance the health of your gut microbiome.

Good Gut & Go FAQs

What ingredients are in Good Gut & Go?
Good Gut & Go contains ingredients for both gut health and regularity. It contains 10 billion CFUs of three clinically proven probiotic strains – Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis HN019, Lactobacillus rhamnosus GGTM, and Lacticaseibacillus paracasei Lpc-37 – plus 3.9 g of prebiotic fibre.

What’s the difference between probiotics and prebiotics?
Probiotics are good bacteria that live in and on your body. Probiotics help sustain a balanced microbial environment – a dynamic community of trillions of microorganisms that live in your digestive tract. This balance is crucial for supporting overall gut health. Prebiotics are specialized dietary fibres that your body can’t digest. They act as a food source for the microorganisms in your gut so these beneficial bacteria can thrive and flourish.

What is a synbiotic?
A synbiotic is a combination of both probiotics and prebiotics that work together to support your gut microbiome and overall gut health.

What is inulin? How does it support regularity?
Inulin is a soluble fibre (prebiotic) found in a wide variety of fruits, vegetables, and herbs. Inulin helps support regularity by several mechanisms. It adds bulk to stool, facilitating easier passage through the digestive tract. It retains water, softening stool for smoother bowel movements. Additionally, by fostering the growth of beneficial gut bacteria, inulin contributes to a healthy gut microbiome, further supporting regularity.

Who should use Good Gut & Go?
Good Gut & Go is formulated for individuals ages 18 and over who seek support for digestive health and regularity.

Can I use Good Gut & Go with Optiflora® DI?
We recommend that you use either Good Gut & Go or Optiflora DI. Not both.

How are Good Gut & Go and Optiflora DI the same? Different?
Both Good Gut & Go and Optiflora DI contain clinically proven probiotic strains to support digestive health. Unlike Optiflora DI, Good Gut & Go also contains 3.9 g of prebiotic fibre, which serves as nourishment for beneficial gut bacteria, fostering their growth and contributing to overall gut health and regularity.

What’s the best way to drink Good Gut & Go?
We recommend mixing 1 stick pack in 1 cup (250 mL) of water while stirring. Take at least 2–3 hours before or after antibiotics.

More About Vitality and Beauty

How does caffeine give you more energy?
Caffeine comes from magic beans, like coffee, cacao, and kola nuts, and herbal potions made from tea leaves, yerba mate, and the guarana berry. (We’re only halfway kidding.) Caffeine, which we source from green tea extract, is classified as a stimulant, which means it increases activity in the central nervous system. How? Simply put, it works to block a neurotransmitter called adenosine – which causes us to feel drowsy – from doing its thing.

What is collagen?
Collagen is the most abundant protein in the body, and it’s responsible for things like holding our bodies together by anchoring cells to each other, giving structure and strength to our muscles and tendons, and maintaining skin elasticity. Pretty important stuff.

How is collagen made?
Collagen is made naturally in the body using amino acids (the building blocks of all proteins). Bodies also need an assist from other key nutrients, including vitamin C, to get the job done.

Why do we need to supplement with collagen?
As we age, the body’s ability to make collagen declines because we may not absorb nutrients as readily or process them as efficiently. Collagen loss leads to common signs of aging, including sagging skin, brittle nails, lacklustre hair, and wrinkles.

Up & Glowing FAQs

What ingredients are in Up & Glowing?
Up & Glowing contains ingredients for both energy and beauty. It contains 80 mg of caffeine from green tea extract, along with 10 g of hydrolyzed collagen, 100% of the DV of vitamin C, 500% of the DV of biotin, and 120 mg hyaluronic acid.

How much caffeine is in one serving of Up & Glowing?
One serving of Up & Glowing contains 80 mg of caffeine from green tea extract.

Why does Up & Glowing contain caffeine?
Caffeine provides an energy boost. It does this by acting as an adenosine antagonist. Adenosine is a neurotransmitter that binds to specific receptors in the brain and makes us feel drowsy. Caffeine binds to the same receptors, blocking adenosine from working.

How many grams of collagen are there in one serving of Up & Glowing?
There are 10 grams of hydrolyzed collagen per serving of Up & Glowing.

Where is the collagen in Up & Glowing sourced from?
The collagen in Up & Glowing is derived from a grass-fed, pasture-raised bovine source.

What types of collagen does Up & Glowing contain?
Up & Glowing contains types I and III collagen, hydrolyzed for quicker digestion and absorption.

Why does Up & Glowing contain vitamin C?
Vitamin C is required by the enzymes that help make collagen. Vitamin C also has antioxidant properties. Antioxidants help protect our bodies against damage caused by free radicals.

Why does Up & Glowing contain biotin?
Biotin can help support healthy hair, skin, and nails, and deficiency of this nutrient has been shown to lead to hair loss and skin and nail problems.

Why does Up & Glowing contain hyaluronic acid?
Hyaluronic acid, our body’s natural lubricant, is abundantly found in our eyes, joints, and skin and is known for its ability to retain moisture.

Why are all 9 essential amino acids required to synthesize collagen when collagen itself contains only eight essential amino acids?
Collagen itself contains only eight essential amino acids, but all nine are required in order to synthesize proteins, including collagen. Scientists who study protein and amino acid metabolism widely agree that all nine essential amino acids are necessary to support protein (including collagen) synthesis regardless of the amino acid composition of the protein.

When can we expect to observe the “beauty” results?
Everyone is different. While Up & Glowing provides the building blocks to support collagen synthesis, results will vary from person to person depending on their own rate of collagen synthesis.

Is there any flavour?
Yes, Up & Glowing is vanilla flavoured.

Can I use Up & Glowing with Muscle Support Mix? Energy Chews? Energizing Tea?
Because all of these products contain caffeine, please use only 1 product at a time. Each of these products is designed for a specific purpose, so only use 1 product at a time and do not combine them. Do not use these products if you are sensitive to caffeine, pregnant, or nursing.

How many stick packs can I take a day?
We recommend one 1 serving of Up & Glowing daily. Because Up & Glowing contains 80 mg of caffeine, we also encourage you to be mindful of your caffeine intake. Healthy adults should have no more than 200 mg of caffeine over 3–4 hours and no more than 300 mg of caffeine per day.

Can I use Up & Glowing with Collagen?
We recommend that you use either Up & Glowing or Collagen.

How are Up & Glowing and Collagen the same? Different?
Both Up & Glowing and Collagen contain 10 g of collagen (types I and III), sourced from a grass-fed, pasture-raised bovine source. They provide all 9 essential amino acids and 100% of the DV of vitamin C. Up & Glowing provides an added beauty boost with 500% of the DV of biotin, compared to 100% of the DV of biotin in Collagen, plus hyaluronic acid. Up & Glowing also contains caffeine and is available in a vanilla-flavoured latte, while Collagen is caffeine-free and unflavoured.

What’s the best way to drink Up & Glowing?
We recommend mixing 1 stick pack in 236 mL (8 oz) of warmed milk or your drink of choice while stirring. Take with food.

Is it safe to use Up & Glowing if I am currently taking medications or have a medical condition?
Consult with your physician before using Up & Glowing if you have a medical condition, are taking a prescription medication, or are concerned about how you will react to the drink.

More About Sleep and Cellular Health Support

Why is sleep important for overall health and wellness?
A good night’s sleep is crucial for your overall health and mood…not to mention the well-being of others around you. Sure, sleep lets your body recover after a busy day, but it’s your brain’s chance to recharge and store all the things you learned and experienced that day, too. During sleep, your body also does a lot of behind-the-scenes work to help heal and restore itself, fortify your immune system, and boost your mood.

What are the consequences of not getting enough sleep?
We’ve all walked around in a fog and felt not quite ourselves the day after a bad night’s sleep. But sleep deprivation can cause more serious issues, including impaired cognitive function, decreased alertness, mood disturbances, a weakened immune system, and heightened stress levels.

Why is it important to protect your cells?
All matter, including your body, is made of cells. You ARE your cells. So, if you protect your cells, you protect all of you. Unfortunately, your cells face constant attacks from things like the food you eat, the air you breathe, and other environmental factors you encounter. When your cells are attacked, they can become damaged, which can affect their ability to work effectively and set off a chain reaction that may lead to health problems. But if you keep your cells healthy, you keep yourself healthy.

Rest & Rewind FAQs

What ingredients are in Rest & Rewind?
Rest & Rewind contains ingredients for both sleep and cellular health support. It contains lemon balm (300 mg), magnesium (100 mg), and clinically tested 5-HTP (100 mg) plus an exclusive blend of polyphenol antioxidants.

What is 5-HTP? How does it help with sleep?
5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) is an amino acid made from L-tryptophan. It’s a precursor for serotonin, a chemical in the brain that affects sleep, and melatonin, a hormone that helps control sleep patterns.

Why is it important to keep your cells healthy?
All living matter, including your body, is made of cells. Unfortunately, your cells face constant attacks from things like the food you eat, the air you breathe, and other environmental factors you encounter. When your cells are attacked, they can become damaged, which can affect their ability to work effectively and set off a chain reaction that causes them to age and, therefore, you to age. But if you keep your cells healthy, you keep yourself healthy.

Who should use Rest & Rewind?
Rest & Rewind is perfect for anyone wanting sleep support without pills or melatonin.

Can I use Rest & Rewind with Dream Serene™?
We recommend that you use either Rest & Rewind or Dream Serene. Not both.

How are Rest & Rewind and Dream Serene the same? Different?
Rest & Rewind and Dream Serene share the common goal of supporting sleep. However, they differ in their approach: Rest & Rewind supports sleep with a mint-flavoured herbal tea with magnesium and 5-HTP and an antioxidant boost to support cellular health while you sleep, while Dream Serene provides sleep-supporting herbs and melatonin but does not have the antioxidant boost.

Can I use Rest & Rewind with Vivix®?
Absolutely. Rest & Rewind supports cellular health during sleep, complementing your natural restorative processes, while Vivix specifically targets and slows down aging at the cellular level.

What’s the best way to use Rest & Rewind?

Flora & Flow

Vaginal Health

#57507 | MP: $57.90 | PV: 33.00

Why We Love It

  • Delivers a combined 5 billion CFUs of the clinically proven probiotics Lactobacillus acidophilus La-14® and Lactobacillus rhamnosus HN001
  • Contains lactoferrin, a key protein found naturally in the body
  • Probiotics and lactoferrin help regulate the vaginal microbiome
  • Formulated with D-mannose sourced from non-GMO cornstarch
  • D-mannose helps manage unwanted bacteria
  • Gluten free, sugar free, kosher dairy, vegetarian, and contains no artificial preservatives, flavours, or sweeteners

More About Vaginal Health

Why are probiotics beneficial for vaginal health?
The vagina is a delicate ecosystem. It has a unique microbiome – a dynamic, diverse community of microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, and fungi. (Yes, that’s normal.) Probiotics are the live bacteria and yeast that are beneficial for that community. They interact with the microbiome to keep everything in a harmonious balance.

How does pH affect vaginal health?
The pH scale measures how basic or acidic something is. A healthy vagina should be a little bit acidic. That acidity is a protective measure to keep bad bacteria and other germs from taking hold. It also provides an ideal environment for good bacteria to grow.

What role does lactoferrin play in vaginal health?
Many of the unwanted microorganisms in the vagina need iron to grow. Lactoferrin binds to iron and limits how available it is to the denizens of the vaginal microbiome. Without a steady food source, it’s more difficult for pathogens to thrive and cause infections.

What role does D-mannose play?
D-mannose is a natural sugar found in fruits like cranberries. (We source ours from non-GMO cornstarch.) It makes it easier for the body to wash away harmful microbes and flush them right down the drain.

Flora & Flow FAQs

What ingredients are in Flora & Flow?
Flora & Flow contains ingredients for vaginal health. It contains 5 billion CFUs of two clinically proven probiotic strains – Lactobacillus acidophilus La-14® and Lactobacillus rhamnosus HN001– plus 50 mg of lactoferrin for vaginal health support and 700 mg of D-mannose to manage unwanted bacteria.

Why does Flora & Flow contain probiotics? How do probiotics support vaginal health?
Flora & Flow contains probiotics to support the unique microbiome of the vagina – a diverse community of microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, and fungi. These beneficial live organisms are vital for supporting balance within the female reproductive system. By interacting with the vaginal microbiome, probiotics play a crucial role in contributing to overall vaginal health and well-being.

Why does Flora & Flow contain lactoferrin? How does lactoferrin support vaginal health?
Many of the microorganisms that you don’t want in your vagina need iron to grow. Lactoferrin binds to iron and limits how available it is to the bad microorganisms in your vaginal microbiome. Without a steady food source, it’s more difficult for these pathogens to grow.

Why does Flora & Flow contain D-mannose? How does D-mannose support vaginal health?
D-mannose helps manage unwanted bacteria and makes it easier for your body to eliminate these unhealthy organisms.

Who should use Flora & Flow?
Flora & Flow is formulated for women ages 18 and over who seek support for vaginal health.

Can I use Flora & Flow with Optiflora® DI?
Absolutely, you have the flexibility to incorporate both Flora & Flow and Optiflora DI into your routine. Flora & Flow is specifically crafted with probiotics that promote vaginal health, while Optiflora DI features probiotics tailored for digestive well-being and immune health.

Can I use Flora & Flow with Optiflora® Probiotic?
Certainly. Flora & Flow and Optiflora Probiotic can be seamlessly integrated into your routine, each addressing specific health aspects – Flora & Flow for vaginal health and Optiflora Probiotic for digestive and immune health.

How many capsules can I take per day?
For best results, take two capsules daily. If swallowing capsules is a challenge, you can try an alternative method by opening the capsule and sprinkling the contents onto your food, like sauces, oatmeal, or smoothies. To ensure effectiveness, avoid mixing it with acidic foods.

Can Flora & Flow be taken on an empty stomach?
Yes, Flora & Flow can be taken on an empty stomach.

Is it safe to use Flora & Flow if I am currently taking medications or have a medical condition?
Consult with your physician before using Flora & Flow if you have a medical condition, are taking a prescribed medication, or are concerned about how you will react to the product.

Can Flora & Flow help with recurring yeast infections?
Flora & Flow is specially formulated to support overall vaginal health by supporting a healthy balance of bacteria in your vaginal microbiome. If you’re dealing with persistent vaginal infections, we recommend consulting your health care provider to discuss the potential benefits of incorporating Flora & Flow into your wellness routine.

Can Flora & Flow assist with urinary tract infections?
Flora & Flow isn’t formulated to support urinary tract health and it’s not a treatment for a urinary tract infection. If you think you have an infection or if you’re dealing with persistent infections, we recommend consulting your health care provider to discuss the potential benefits of incorporating Flora & Flow into your wellness routine.

Can this product be used when pregnant or nursing?
Flora & Flow is not recommended for use by pregnant or nursing women. We recommend discussing the use of supplements during pregnancy with your Obstetrician.

Can this product be used by men?
Flora & Flow is not recommended for men as it’s formulated for the specific needs of the female anatomy.

Can this product be used by children?
