Whether you’re starting to feel the effects of aging or just want to enjoy a healthier lifestyle, the dōTERRA Lifelong Vitality Pack® (LLV) is designed to support your body’s health, energy, and longevity.* Today, we’ll discuss the benefits of LLV and how each product can support a healthy lifestyle, allowing you to look and feel your best.

Do You Want to Live Younger, Longer and Look and Feel Even Better?

There are many ways to measure health and wellness. For some people, it’s how they look and feel, while for others it’s things like cholesterol levels and weight. Truthfully, your health is determined by many factors: energy levels, exercise habits, diet, stress levels, exposure to toxins, and feelings of well-being. Many of these factors are easily measured in quantitative form, such as blood pressure and body mass, while others are more subjective and difficult to assess, like emotional health and energy levels.

Along with personal risk factors, you face health challenges simply because of the world in which you live. High-stress jobs and jam-packed schedules leave little time for exercise and quality sleep. You have seemingly endless access to processed foods and are accustomed to a diet that lacks many important nutrients needed for good health. The consumer products you use may increase exposure to toxins, further endangering health.

In fact, these same poor lifestyle factors can also affect your metabolic health. Unhealthy eating and physical inactivity threaten your metabolic health, which can lead to further challenges.

What’s It Costing You?

Nutritional deficiencies can lead to serious issues or make existing conditions even worse. Depending on the deficiency, your body may suffer from a wide range of issues like fatigue, weak bones, threats to cardiovascular health, and more. But think beyond these health impacts. Think about how deficiencies affect your interactions with your kids or your friends when you’re exhausted. Think about how they impact your job when your brain is fuzzy. Think about how you’re feeling mentally and emotionally each day. This problem involves so much more than a health diagnosis. How Many People Have Optimal Cardiometabolic Health?

Only 6.8% of the population have optimal cardiometabolic health—meaning you carry too much weight; have blood glucose levels, blood lipid levels, and blood pressure that are out of range; or have a history of cardiovascular events.

Everyone you love is or will most likely be impacted by this: your parents, your spouse, your kids and grandkids, and your best friends.

How Big of an Impact Does Diet Have?

Good nutrition is the primary factor in good health. And on the other hand, poor nutrition is a key factor in challenged metabolic health. Among many effects, what you eat has a major impact on your health status, weight, and emotional state.

The typical modern diet is full of highly processed food and lacks vital nutrients, which means most of you aren’t likely to reach daily requirements for several key vitamins and minerals. The standard Canadian diet is a top contributor to early hormone imbalance. The two biggest factors that slow metabolism are inactivity and poor dieting. Poor dieting goes beyond eating high-calorie foods. It also factors in the nutrients you consume. If you’re experiencing a vitamin deficiency, your metabolism is going to struggle.

This chart shows the number of Canadian adults who aren’t reaching their daily nutritional requirements for specific vitamins and minerals. V i t a m i n D 95% V i t a m i n E 94% M a g n e s i u m 61% V i t a m i n A 57% C a l c i u m 49% V i t a m i n C 43%

Now, you may be thinking, I eat really healthily so this doesn’t affect me. Let's take a look at that.

Is Healthy Food Enough?

Today’s healthy foods are different from the historic diets your genes are programmed for. For thousands of years, agricultural breeding has always focused on improved yield and taste. Because many micronutrients don’t taste good, they’ve been inadvertently bred out of your food. The ugly wild apples you could see in our Annapolis Valley on the orchard floor could have a hundred times more phytonutrients and as much as thirty times the vitamin C than apples you can buy in the grocery store but they don't look or taste as good so they don't make it to market! And they’re just one example of what’s happened to the entire food supply. So now you can see why even healthy diets today fail to meet RDAs and even lessen your optimum micronutrient requirements. But your body has an amazing capacity to thrive when you give it what it needs!

Let’s Talk Solutions

You might be feeling overwhelmed on where to start, but don’t stress! I’m here to help demystify the problem and work on a solution that will save you time, money, and confusion.

So far, I’ve gone over some of the struggles you may be experiencing. Now let’s discuss solutions.

The dōTERRA Lifelong Vitality Pack®

dōTERRA offers two product systems to help you maintain a healthy lifestyle: one focused on movement and metabolism and the other on nutrition and digestion. These systems are safe, effective, and affordable solutions you can use in your daily routine, only taking a few minutes a day.

First, let’s cover the solution for nutrition! Even the best diets are deficient in vital nutrients. The dōTERRA Lifelong Vitality Pack (LLV) was created to fill the gaps. Each complex blend has a specific job that assists with optimal health. dōTERRA also uses CPTG Certified Pure Tested Grade® essential oils as part of the proprietary LLV formulas.

Absorption is key for supplemental support of the body. LLV uses a patented process that introduces vitamins and minerals to a yeast-based protein matrix so they’re better recognized as food in the digestive process. To give you a better idea of the products’ overall benefits, let’s talk about the clinically supported findings. For those of you who love science, dōTERRA does too! If any of you want to see the research, connect with me after class, and we’ll chat about all the resources available to you. None of the LLV products contain genetically modified material or milk products.

The dōTERRA Lifelong Vitality Pack® Saves You Money

Your health is an important investment. When you have to purchase a different supplement for each desired benefit, the cost of staying healthy can rise quickly. Each of the LLV products contains ingredients that provide multiple benefits—like those we just talked about—in an affordable way so you can maintain good health.

To obtain the equivalent of LLV ingredients and benefits, you’d have to purchase $200–$300 worth of supplements. I know this all too well. Before starting LLV, I had to buy separate sources of ashwaganda, vitamin C, calcium, and other supplements that are now so easily found in my LLV saving me time and money.

LLV combines several wellness benefits in each product, making it the most convenient and cost-effective method for promoting a healthy lifestyle. LLV also has a 90-day money- back guarantee if you feel like the products aren’t delivering your desired benefits.

Now that we’ve discussed the benefits of LLV as a whole, let’s look at each product individually.

1. Alpha CRS+® Benefits

We’ve all heard about the importance of antioxidants. They help you feel younger and healthier longer. Along with helping protect your cells from free radicals, antioxidants can help keep the heart, cardiovascular system, brain, and nervous system functioning properly.

Other ingredients in Alpha CRS+ include:

• Boswellic acid and bromelain protease enzyme to support healthy cellular function.* • Ginko biloba botanical extract to support mental clarity and energy.* • dōTERRA tummy tamer blend of botanical extracts to help prevent stomach upset.

The Alpha CRS+ formula is placed in sodium lauryl sulfate–free vegetable capsules.

2. xEO Mega® Benefits

XEO Mega is important for healthy cell growth, brain development, muscle activity, immune function, and joint health. Studies have also shown the health benefits of omega-3s include positive effects on cardiovascular health, brain function, and the skin.

XEO Mega contains a propriety blend of CPTG® essential oils, marine- and land-sourced omega fatty acids, and plant-based ingredients, which work together to provide the body with several important benefits.

Main ingredients include:

• Marine and plant omega blend: This blend of concentrated and pure fish and Ahi flower seed oils provides the body with useful essential fatty acids. • Natural vitamins D and E: xEO Mega includes 800 international units (IU) of natural vitamin D and 60 IU of natural vitamin E. Vitamin D plays an essential role in bone health and growth and can promote healthy immune function, as well as healthy responses to cellular stress. • Astaxanthin: Astaxanthin is a powerful antioxidant carotenoid harvested from microalgae. It’s coupled with natural vitamin E to deliver circulatory and systemic benefits.* • Essential oil blend: Clove, Frankincense, Thyme, Cumin, Wild Orange, Peppermint, Ginger, and German Chamomile essential oils provide the body with antioxidants to promote healthy cells. The essential oils in the xEO Mega formula also help protect the essential fatty acids used from oxidation and rancidity, since they act as a natural preservative system.

3. Microplex VMz® Benefits

Microplex VMz is a whole-food nutrient supplement that provides essential vitamins and minerals to keep your body functioning in a healthy manner. It offers vitamins you might not be getting in your diet. Microplex VMz is designed to provide you with adequate amounts of vitamins and minerals to promote optimum health when combined with a well-balanced diet and healthy lifestyle. By taking it daily, you can give your body the vitamins and minerals needed for good health.

What’s Metabolic Health?

Let’s discuss the system focused on movement and metabolism. In September, dōTERRA is releasing an incredible new product line to help maximize your metabolism. Metabolic health means your body can digest and absorb nutrients from the food you eat without spikes in blood sugar, blood fat, and insulin. It’s important to avoid these big spikes because they can contribute to the unfavorable long-term impact of food on your health.

Having good metabolic health lowers your risk of challenges from metabolic imbalances. Poor diet, high levels of stress, and a sedentary lifestyle all negatively impact metabolic health.

Metabolic Health and Biological Age Are Inseparable

Most of us are familiar with the idea that lifestyle choices affect your physical appearance. Remember, only 6.8% of the population has optimal cardiometabolic health, and metabolic

imbalances contribute to the appearance of early aging.

The same is true of your biological age. Even with genetic factors, your lifestyle choices make a big difference. The same list of things that makes you look old on the outside makes your cells act old on the inside.

Some of the latest research at Harvard and other top-tier organizations shows metabolic health and biological age are inseparable. That means the stronger and healthier your

metabolic function, the younger you’ll feel inside and out.

MetaPWR™ Metabolic Blend

At the heart of the system is a uniquely formulated blend of Grapefruit, Lemon, Peppermint, Ginger, and Cinnamon Bark essential oils that’s featured in every product in the line. Let’s

just call it “willpower in a bottle.”

The new product system for metabolic health is going to fill the hole in your wellness lifestyle plan. While more confirming clinical research is needed, preclinical studies suggest it

supports naturally increasing NAD+ and NADH levels in your body, which can help normalize blood glucose levels, promote healthy insulin activity and response, and inhibit the growth of adipose fat cells.

It also includes nine types of collagen from ethical and sustainable marine sources. Most other products in the market have two types maximum and none of the other metabolic support factors. The Meta PWR (PWR stands for personal wellness redefined) essential oil blend itself doesn’t just come in a single format. A 15 mL bottle is just the beginning. You can diversify your consumer experience! It’s a choose-your-own-adventure journey with this essential oil blend.

Have you ever started your day with a treat that seems to set off a whole day of poor eating? Cravings can be a serious force to be reckoned with, especially because it’s normal for your

resolve or self-discipline to diminish throughout the day.

dōTERRA offers gum, softgels, and beadlets—all of which are convenient for life on the go. You have support wherever you are!

MetaPWR™ Metabolic Assist

How does Assist benefit you? It turns fast carbs into slow carbs reducing our meal-time blood glucose spikes. Blood sugar levels are one of the most significant markers of health. These levels naturally fluctuate depending on eating and activity patterns. ·

It’s important to note constant spikes and crashes in your blood sugar are hard on your body and contribute to poor functioning cells. · Like blood sugar levels, a rollercoaster ride once or twice a year probably wouldn’t cause long-term issues. However, riding

the rollercoaster multiple times a day, week after week might have some consequences. MetaPWR™ Assist contains multiple natural compounds clinically evidenced to promote healthy blood sugar regulation.

MetaPWR™ Advantage

While most collagen nutraceutical products use only one or two collagen peptide types, MetaPWR Advantage contains nine! Each supports different biological systems—from bone and cartilage strength to skin elasticity. A supplement’s delivery system is crucial to its bioavailability, and that’s especially true of collagen. Certain fantastic ingredients in MetaPWR Advantage can influence the expression of several aging genetic pathways to ensure you’re not only living longer but also living well, like yeast powder

NMN! By supplementing with the naturally derived NMN found in MetaPWR Advantage, you can support your body’s ability to produce NAD+, optimizing your metabolic health and extending your health-span.

While NAD+ serves many functions, the most critical ones are metabolic processes and mitochondrial function. By the time you reach age 50, NAD+ levels are generally about half of what they were age 20. This can contribute to various health challenges, like difficulty managing weight and decreased energy levels.

Remember, nutrition and metabolism have a synergistic effect on your health and overall wellness. Nutrition is the process of nutrient acquisition from your environment, and metabolism is the chemical process your body uses to transform the food you eat into fuel. Studies have found persistent disturbance of nutrient metabolism or energy

homeostasis—caused by either nutrient deficiency or excess—induces cellular stress, leading to metabolic dysregulation.

Your metabolism influences your energy, weight, body composition, sleep, and even cognitive performance. Nutrition and metabolic support go hand in hand.

What does that mean for you? You can have more energy so you can keep up with your kids and social life, more stamina during the day (ditching the caffeine and curbing the cravings,

thanks to your stabilized blood glucose and insulin response), improved endurance in your workout routine, and a clearer mind so you can crush it at work.
