Unicity Balance™ (also known as Bios Life® Slim or Bios Life® S) is a fiber-based, vitamin-rich nutritional supplement. Unicity Balance™ contains a blend of soluble and insoluble fibers, Unicity® 7× technology, phytosterols, policosanol, an extract of Chrysanthemum morifolium, vitamins, and minerals that when combined with a healthy diet and exercise may lower total serum cholesterol, and help achieve and maintain a healthy body weight.

Unicity Balance™ is light orange in color. It is a hygroscopic crystalline powder that is generally soluble in water. Each serving of Unicity Balance™ contains 4 g of fiber, 1 g of phytosterols, 750 mg of Unicity 7×, 6 mg of policosanol, and 12.5 mg of an extract of Chrysanthemum morifolium. In addition to these active ingredients, each serving of Unicity Balance™ contains maltodextrin, citric acid, orange juice powder, sweeteners, and orange flavor.

It’s estimated that Americans consume 10-12 g of total fiber per day, less than half the amount of the recommended daily intake. Epidemiological and clinical studies have correlated high daily fiber intake with an improvement in overall health. 

Unicity Balance™ is a nutritional supplement designed to increase fiber intake. Each serving of Unicity Balance™ contains four grams of fiber. When taken three times daily, Unicity Balance™ contributes half of the recommended daily value of fiber. Fiber supplementation has been shown to decrease preprandial and postprandial glucose levels, lower LDL cholesterol and apolipoprotein B levels, increase satiety, and facilitate weight loss.

In addition to fiber supplementation, Unicity Balance™ contains a patented blend of phytosterols, policosanol, Chrysanthemum morifolium, vitamins, and minerals. Unicity Balance™ facilitates weight loss through five distinct mechanisms. First, the soluble fiber matrix promotes an increase in satiety. Second, Unicity Balance™ improves cholesterol levels. Reduction in LDL content removes a potent inhibitor of lipolysis. Third, Unicity Balance™ improves blood glucose levels. Appropriate serum glucose levels help maintain many metabolic processes in the body. Reducing insulin levels permits fatty acid oxidation to occur. Fourth, Unicity Balance™ restores appropriate leptin signaling. Lastly, Unicity Balance™ reduces triglyceride levels allowing for leptin to cross the blood-brain barrier and affect its mechanism of action.

Dissolve the contents of one packet or one scoop into 8 to 10 fl. oz. of liquid (water or juice) and stir vigorously. Drink immediately. Use 15-20 minutes before meals up to three times daily.

Unicity Balance™ is well tolerated. There may be mild gastrointestinal discomfort, such as increased flatulence or loose stools, during the first month of initial use due to the increased uptake of dietary fiber. This GI disturbance usually disappears within the first thirty days. If the GI discomfort persists, reduce the number of servings of Unicity Balance™. If the GI discomfort further persists, stop taking the product and consult your physician. Taking this product without adequate liquid can result in complications.

Unicity Balance™ is packaged in single-serving foil packets or in bulk canisters.

Bio-C™ is a vitamin C nutritional supplement. Bio-C™ is a yellow, water-soluble, crystalline powder pressed into a tablet. Each Bio-C™ tablet consists of a proprietary blend of ascorbyl palmitate, calcium ascorbate, ascorbic acid, magnesium ascorbate, and 37.5 mg of citrus bioflavonoids. In addition to the active ingredients, each tablet contains cellulose, stearic acid, silicon dioxide, croscarmellose sodium, and magnesium stearate.

Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is a water-soluble vitamin that is used in the body to form cartilage, collagen, muscles, and blood vessels. Vitamin C is a potent antioxidant that can protect small molecules such as proteins, carbohydrates, nucleic acids, and lipids from damage caused by free radicals that are generated through the course of normal metabolism or through exposure to external toxins and pollutants (e.g. ultraviolet radiation from the sun or smoking). Vitamin C can also regenerate other antioxidants like vitamin E. Additionally, vitamin C is required for the synthesis of carnitine, a molecule involved in the transport of fats across the mitochondrial membrane, as well as the synthesis of norepinephrine, a neurotransmitter.

Take one tablet, two times daily.

Bio-C™ is well tolerated. Some gastrointestinal discomfort may be experienced as with any dietary supplement.

Available in tablets.

Bios Life® E and Unicity Matcha are flavored, powdered drink mix packets for convenience and ease of use. Bios Life® E is a nutritional supplement used to supply necessary vitamins, minerals, and electrolytes. Bios Life® E also provides energy, amino acids, and antioxidants on a daily basis. Bios Life® E contains high quality Matcha as well as green coffee bean extract.

Unicity Matcha is a blend of natural ingredients that boost energy, lower stress levels, and increase metabolism. Unicity Matcha contains high quality Matcha, guarana, and Japanese knotweed.

Bios Life® E and Unicity Matcha contain refreshing ingredients that may boost energy, concentration, and metabolism while lowering stress levels. The principle ingredient in Bios Life® E and Unicity Matcha is a high quality Matcha, a uniquely grown green tea from Japan, which delivers a powerful dose of antioxidants in each serving.

Research shows that Matcha delivers as much as 137 times more antioxidants than other green or black teas available on the market. Matcha contains especially high amounts of green tea antioxidants called catechins, a class of polyphenols which may produce thermogenic effects by increasing the body’s metabolism, provide more energy over a longer period of time, and even decrease muscle fatigue. Catechins and other green tea polyphenols may also protect against cell damage.

Matcha is derived from Camellia sinensis, one of the few plants that naturally produces high levels of L-theanine and caffeine. High levels of L-theanine and caffeine may supply an increase in energy as well as enhance cognitive ability. Research has shown that the amino acid L-theanine has a calming effect on the human brain without causing drowsiness. This relaxation, paired with the stimulant effects of caffeine and theophylline, creates a heightened mental state which improves concentration.

Matcha is a unique tea leaf because it is grown in the shade, forcing the plant to grow at a much slower rate. This greatly increases the catechins and amino acids available in an equivalent serving of Matcha green tea compared to standard tea. Additionally, because Matcha tea leaves are powdered and consumed whole and not just steeped, a cup of Matcha tea contains a larger variety and quantity of nutrients. This includes soluble and insoluble components such as chlorophyll, protein, and dietary fiber.

The contents of the packet can be mixed with 8-10 fl. oz. of water, shaken or stirred vigorously, and consumed. Use one packet daily.

Bios Life ® E and Unicity Matcha are generally well tolerated. As with any dietary supplement, some gastrointestinal discomfort may be experienced. Bios Life® E and Unicity Matcha contains moderate amounts of caffeine; as such, individuals who are sensitive to caffeine should exercise caution when using these products.

Bios Life® E and Unicity Matcha are packaged in single-serving foil packets.

In digestion, enzymes liberate and break down nutrients from food that become the building blocks for cell growth and regeneration. Proper enzyme levels are crucial to a healthy body. In order to provide a balanced blend of specific enzymes and help break down foods in digestion, Enzygen® Plus contains a wide variety of unique enzymes that aid in digestion. The enzymes found in Enzygen® Plus help break down various types of fats, carbohydrates, and proteins to help convert food into useful nutrients for the body. Additionally, Enzygen® Plus helps to promote proper digestion and helps the stomach maintain proper acidity.

The five basic categories of enzymes include lipase for breaking down oils and fats, cellulase to break down fibers, amylase for breaking down starches, lactase for dairy products, and protease to break down proteins.

There are many different enzymes in Unicity’s proprietary blend of enzymes found in Enzygen® Plus. These include different forms of amylase, protease, lipase, catalase, lactase, cellulase, hemicellulase, invertase, peptidase, bromelain, papain, superoxide dismutase, beta-glucanase, and phytase.

Our bodies need proper levels of active enzymes in order to conduct a variety of tasks, including digestion. While enzymes occur naturally in our bodies and in plants, they can be destroyed by pesticides, pollution, processes used to cook or irradiate foods, and chemical additives. Enzygen® Plus supplements your enzyme supply to help your body break down fats, carbohydrates, and proteins. Enzymes convert foods to useful nutrients, and complete proper digestion.

Enzymes are natural substances created in plant, animal and human cells, and they play a vital role in digestion. There are more than 2,700 identified enzymes in the human body, and each affects a unique chemical reaction. The body relies on properly functioning enzymes to assist with breathing, digestion, growth, blood coagulation, sensory perception, reproduction, and other functions.

Enzygen® Plus contains a wide variety of enzymes and other ingredients that may aid digestion by breaking down food in the digestive system, stimulating the release of essential nutrients from food.

Take one capsule three times daily with food.

Enzygen® Plus is generally well tolerated. As with any dietary supplement, some gastrointestinal discomfort may be experienced.

Available in capsules.

Immunizen® is a dietary supplement for strengthening and fortifying the immune system.

Immunizen® is a moderately water-soluble, white crystalline powder. Immunizen® consists of a proprietary blend of colostrum, arabinogalactan, 1,3, 1,6 yeast betaglucans, and lactoferrin. In addition to the active ingredients, each 835 mg capsule of Immunizen® contains natural gelatin, stearic acid, and silicon dioxide.

Immunizen® combines the positive immune modulating effects of colostrum, arabinogalactans, yeast beta-glucans, and lactoferrin to boost your body’s natural defenses to foreign antigens. Colostrum is composed of immunoglobulins that bolster the body’s immune system by providing immunity against various pathogens.

Beta-glucans are generally derived from the cell walls of the yeast species Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Beta-glucans are potent immuno-modulating agents that prime both the innate and adaptive immune systems.

Take two capsules daily with water one to two hours before a meal.

Immunizen® is well tolerated. As with any dietary supplement, some gastrointestinal discomfort may be experienced.

Available in capsules.

Joint Mobility™ and Colla Flex are nutritional supplements for overall joint health.

Joint Mobility™ contains undenatured type II collagen, turmeric extract (95% curcumin), boswellia extract and vitamin D3 as active ingredients, and also includes microcrystalline cellulose and silicon dioxide. Joint Mobility™ is a powder filled capsule that takes on the yellow color of turmeric. Joint Mobility is delivered in a smaller dose than traditional joint supplements. These smaller capsules are ideal for individuals who have trouble taking large capsules or pills.

Colla Flex contains undenatured type II collagen, turmeric extract, and black pepper extract. Colla Flex is delivered in a smaller dose than traditional joint supplements. These smaller capsules are ideal for individuals who have trouble taking large capsules or pills.

Many people suffer daily from joint pain and discomfort caused from years of overuse or from being obese. Joint pain and a loss of mobility can dramatically affect quality of life, making simple, everyday activity difficult and painful. The ingredients contained in Joint Mobility™ and Colla Flex work in several different ways to help maintain overall joint health. Turmeric (curcumin) and boswellia extract have been shown to downregulate the genes involved in chronic inflammation. Vitamin D3 has been shown to help increase collagen production which is needed to maintain overall joint health. Black pepper extract has been shown to block the expression of inflammatory markers in the body. The ingredients contained in these supplements have been shown to inhibit pro-inflammatory pathways and also help to prevent the breakdown of joint collagen, allowing the body to repair and heal itself.

Joint Mobility™: Take two capsules daily.

Colla Flex: Take one capsule daily.

Joint Mobility™ and Colla Flex are generally well tolerated. As with any dietary supplement, some gastrointestinal discomfort may be experienced.

Available in capsules.

Protein is critical in building and maintaining healthy muscle and bone and many people don’t get enough. In addition to having little to no insulin response, adequate protein consumption also helps people feel fuller for longer and reduces the tendency to overeat.

Often, hunger and cravings sabotage the most well-intentioned health plans. In addition to having no insulin response, fat digests more slowly than carbohydrate and aids in satiety – helping you feel fuller, longer.

By getting smart about which carbs you eat and when you eat them, you allow insulin levels to fall, which enable the body to burn stored fat.

OmegaLife-3™ and OmegaLife-3™ Resolv are a blend of omega-3 fatty acids designed to help maintain healthy cardiovascular and cerebral function.

OmegaLife-3™ is an amber-colored, semi-viscous, fat-soluble liquid softgel. Each serving of OmegaLife-3™ contains the following active ingredients: 800 mg eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), 400 mg docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), and vitamin E. In addition, it also contains the inactive ingredients gelatin, glycerin, purified water, and orange oil. OmegaLife-3™ has been molecularly distilled to ensure exceptionally pure oil to provide higher levels of EPA and DHA and includes orange oil to prevent a fishy aftertaste.

OmegaLife-3™ Resolv is a patent pending, semi-opaque, semi-viscous, fat-soluble liquid softgel. Each serving of OmegaLife-3™ Resolv contains the following active ingredients: 1000 mg eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), 500 mg docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), and 120 mg vitamin E. In addition, it also contains the inactive ingredients; beeswax, Gaultheria procumbens (wintergreen oil), soy lecithin, l-arginine, special antioxidants blend (rosemary extract, sunflower oil, mixed natural tocopherols, L-ascorbyl palmitate), fish gelatin, glycerin, purified water. OmegaLife-3™ Resolv has been molecularly distilled to ensure exceptionally pure oil to provide higher levels of EPA and DHA; in addition this product includes wintergreen oil to prevent a fishy aftertaste.

Clinical research suggests fish oil can help support proper brain and eye health. In 2002 the FDA approved supplementation of DHA in infant formula. DHA is potentially important in fetal and infant neural development, in that DHA and arachidonic acid have been shown to be incorporated into brain and retinal cell membranes—particularly during the third trimester of pregnancy and early infant life.

DHA is the predominant structural fatty acid in the central nervous system and in the retina of the eyes.

EPA supports the synthesis of important compounds in the body. EPA is the precursor of thromboxane and leukotriene, compounds involved in supporting healthy circulation. They also promote healthy blood vessels.

Evidence is accumulating that increasing intakes of EPA and DHA can decrease the risk thrombosis, decrease triglyceride levels, and decrease inflammation.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has stated, “Supportive but not conclusive research shows that consumption of EPA and DHA omega-3 fatty acids may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease.”

Take four softgels daily with water.

OmegaLife-3™ and OmegaLife-3 Resolve are well tolerated. As with any dietary supplement, some gastrointestinal discomfort may be experienced.

Available in softgels.

As we age, levels of CoQ10 in the body decrease, causing the degeneration of cells. Ubiquinol-CoQ10 provides essential nutrients that may benefit the heart; it also contains antioxidants that may combat free-radical damage as well as help to naturally sustain healthy levels of CoQ10 in people as they age. Ubiquinol-CoQ10 is a highpotency formula of Ubiquinol along with sunflower oil, yellow beeswax, and sunflower lecithin to increase solubility and bioavailability. CoenzymeQ10 (CoQ10) is found naturally in the body and plays an essential role in the production of energy in all cells.

CoQ10 Advanced Formula contains coenzymeQ10 along with L-carnitine and taurine, amino acids that contribute to heart health. It also contains vitamin E and vitamin B12.

Ubiquinol (CoQ10) is found naturally in the body and plays an essential role in the production of energy in all cells. The body requires a sufficient amount of CoQ10 in order to function optimally. This product may help enhance the effectiveness of the immune system. Some research has shown that a CoQ10 deficiency may contribute to possible side effects in persons taking statin medications. CoQ10 may support heart health and may assist the body in energy production in cells. CoQ10 is also an antioxidant that may protect cells from free radicals.

L-Carnitine and taurine have been shown to reduce heart rate and triglyceride levels in patients with congestive heart failure, and help improve left ventricular function.

Take one softgel daily.

Ubiquinol-CoQ10 is generally well tolerated. As with any dietary supplement, some gastrointestinal discomfort may be experienced.

Do not take while on blood thinning medication without consulting a doctor.

Available in softgels.

Unimate™ is a high-quality proprietary Yerba Mate extract with natural ingredients to boost your mood and your endurance. Our Yerba Mate is grown, harvested, and traditionally fire-dried and roasted in South America. It then undergoes a specialized purification and extraction process, providing 10 times the amount of bioactive compounds as normal Yerba Mate.

Unimate™ is a rich source of vitamins, minerals, and secondary metabolites such as chlorogenic acids and triterpenoid saponins. As a member of Unicity International’s Genomeceutical™ line of products, chlorogenic acids and triterpenoid saponins found in Unimate™ have been documented in the scientific literature to support healthy gene expression in the body.

Clinical studies show that Unimate™ has the ability to promote a healthy mood. Psychological well-being in a group of subjects, assessed using the Oxford Happiness Questionnaire, was increased by 20% after taking Unimate™. The mode of action of this result is likely due to the ability of chlorogenic acids to support healthy mood and cognition—as previously reported elsewhere in the scientific literature.

An additional clinical study demonstrated the ability of Unimate™ to maintain healthy blood-lipid and blood glucose levels in the body. A 12% reduction of total cholesterol, 5% reduction of LDL cholesterol, and 11% reduction of triglycerides was observed in a group of subjects who took Unimate™ once daily for 30 days. Additionally, a 5% reduction in fasting blood-glucose and a 3% reduction in HbA1c levels was also observed in this same group.

Other clinical studies have validated the ability of Unimate™ to support healthy weight loss in the body due to the ability of Yerba Mate triterpenoid saponins to support healthy gene expression of anti-obesity related genes.

Mix contents of one packet with 8-10 oz. of hot or cold water, once per day.

Unimate is generally well tolerated. Unimate contains moderate amounts of caffeine; caffeine-sensitive individuals should exercise caution when using this product. Not suitable for pregnant or nursing women and children.

Unimate is packaged in single-serve foil packets.
