The Concept
The Univera strategy could be called regenerative nutrition. The founding premise to this strategy is that the body is continually renewing itself; the body has a tremendous capacity for repair; and we are always in a state of becoming. The question posed to the consumer is, "what are you becoming? Are you becoming healthier, stronger, more fit? Are you becoming more of the same? Or are you becoming gradually weaker and less vibrant, as time goes on?"
The average adult replaces more than 300 billion cells per day. This daily process represents an astounding potential for regeneration, and yet most of us miss this opportunity due to stress, illness, dietary insufficiency, poor sleep and a sedentary lifestyle. Univera and the ECONET family of companies have demonstrated that with proper nutritional support, quality of life and the experience of aging can be vastly improved.
Univera is much more than a “vitamin company.” Regenerative nutrition goes far beyond a basic mix of raw material, as you would find in a typical vitamin supplement. Regenerative nutrition involves the enhancement of cellular energy, and the maintenance of competent immunity and optimal cell signaling. There are no magic bullets. Facilitating optimal health requires rigorous science, proven efficacy, and measurable results. In an arena filled with “quick fix” promises and negative side-effect cycles, Univera is a valuable and reliable tool for physicians and healthcare providers. Products target metabolic function and the cellular basis for the degenerative effects of aging.
Univera's objective is the progressive advancement of health care, where regenerative nutrition leads to dramatic, though gradual, cell renewal.
The Metabolic Model of Aging: How Univera Complements the Medical Model
Metabolic efficiency is the key to repairing and avoiding the ravages of aging. By developing products that positively affect every step of metabolism, from gene expression to cell and tissue function, Unigen , AloeCorp, and Univera have created a product line that is breaking bounds to human performance and bodily function, at EVERY age. Stephen Cherniske, M.Sc., Chief Scientific Officer for Univera, further balances the plant-based formulas with nutrient co-factors that enhance bioavailability and support metabolic efficiency. These include strategically applied vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, other select micronutrients, and bioenergetic enhancers such as ornithine alpha-ketoglutarate, alpha-lipoic acid, and acetyl L-carnitine.
The scientific foundations of Univera are described in Stephen Cherniske’s best-selling book, The Metabolic Plan (Ballantine, 2003). This book provides a conceptual understanding of the aging process that satisfies physicians’ requirement of scientific integrity, and is written in language that patients can understand.
In this metabolic model of aging, the analogy of a seesaw can be used to demonstrate the balancing relationship between damage and the body’s repair/ regenerate capacity. An effective healthy aging strategy must support repair and reduce damage. Importantly, Univera products are designed to accomplish this at every level, from the body as a whole, to the organs, cells, cellular organelles and components, including mitochondrial and nuclear DNA.
Today, the Metabolic Model of Aging is gaining widespread scientific support in several disciplines, from neurology to rheumatology, internal medicine, primary care, genetics, and endocrinology. The application of this model, with the proven effectiveness of Univera products, will enable your patients to dramatically alter the way that they experience the aging process.
Univera products are about renewal. Because the average adult replaces more than 300 billion cells every 24 hours, increasing repair and reducing damage allows you – over time – to create a body that looks, feels and performs better… at ANY age.
With consistent use, Univera products help consumers take greater control of the body’s performance in the aging process. This concept is LIGHT YEARS beyond what has been called “symptom-stomping.”
Importantly, Univera products provide BENEFITS that you can see and feel and measure. The vast majority of people who try Univera products for 90 days experience REMARKABLE improvements in energy, mental clarity, stress management, joint comfort, sleep quality, and overall sense of well-being.
