3 nutrametrix Advanced Level 90 Blood Sugar Maintenance Primary Benefits* Helps maintain normal blood sugar levels Helps reduce sugar cravings Promotes weight loss Supports a strong immune system May help promote the normal release and activity of insulin What Makes This Product Unique? Maintaining proper blood glucose levels is critical to your health and can have a great impact on how your body functions. Glucose, or blood sugar, is the body s main source of energy. It is obtained from food, drink, and in incidences of low blood sugar, the liver. Sugar enters the bloodstream and stays there until insulin, a hormone, stimulates its movement into various cells, where it provides energy. nutrametrix Advanced Level 90 is a combination of vitamins, trace minerals and herbs that helps maintain healthy blood sugar levels. Maintaining healthy, normal blood sugar levels is important to overall health. Blood sugar levels are determined by how many carbohydrates are ingested, how rapidly the body breaks down carbohydrates into simple sugars and absorbs these sugars into the bloodstream, and how rapidly cells take up the sugar from the blood. nutrametrix Advanced Level 90 helps maintain healthy blood sugar levels.* Frequently Asked Questions How does nutrametrix Advanced Level 90 help you maintain normal blood sugar levels? nutrametrix Advanced Level 90 works by promoting a gradual absorption of blood sugar from the intestines. This helps control cravings for sweets and supports normal glucose metabolism.* Is nutrametrix Advanced Level 90 safe to take daily? Yes. nutrametrix Advanced Level 90 can be taken with each meal with eight ounces of water. What is the difference between simple and complex carbohydrates? There are two types of carbohydrates: simple and complex. Simple carbohydrates are absorbed very easily from the intestine into the bloodstream and as a result, have the most rapid effect on blood sugar levels because they are absorbed so readily. Foods containing simple carbs include processed items such as cookies, candies and chips. Fruits and vegetables contain natural forms of simple carbohydrates. Complex carbohydrates, which include fiber and starches, are also made up of sugars, but they exist in longer chains so that they take longer to break down in the intestine and thus are absorbed into the bloodstream at a slower rate. Foods containing complex carbohydrates include most vegetables, whole grains and beans. The majority of carbohydrate calories that you consume should come from complex carbohydrates. How do carbohydrates affect blood sugar levels? Both simple and complex carbohydrates are broken down in the intestines to their smaller monosaccharide counterparts: glucose, fructose and galactose. Once broken down, they are absorbed through the intestinal wall into the bloodstream. The rate at which these simple sugars are absorbed into the bloodstream is what affects how high your blood sugar levels rise. Why is fiber beneficial to the body and how does it affect blood sugar levels? Fiber is a plant material that is largely resistant to the body s digestive enzymes so that much of it moves through the intestines and is excreted from the body. As a result, it retains water and supports normal bowel movement because it keeps the bolus of food moving through the intestines. In addition, it helps slow the absorption of sugars into the bloodstream, helping to maintain healthy blood sugar levels.* How do I take nutrametrix Advanced Level 90 Blood Sugar Maintenance? With a meal, take one tablet with 8 fluid ounces of water. For additional information on nutrametrix products, visit your Health Professional s nutrametrix website.

5 nutrametrix Isotonix Isochrome Primary Benefits* Helps maintain healthy blood sugar levels Supports healthy insulin activity Isotonic-capable nutraceutical to improve delivery and absorption of nutrients What Makes This Product Unique? Maintaining proper blood glucose levels is critical to your health and can have a great impact on how your body functions. Glucose, or blood sugar, is the body s main source of energy. It is obtained from food, drink, and in incidences of low blood sugar, the liver. Sugar enters the bloodstream and stays there until insulin, a hormone, stimulates its movement into various cells, where it provides energy. nutrametrix Isotonix Isochrome is a distinctive combination of nutrients that work together to help increase energy and help maintain healthy blood sugar levels. nutrametrix Isotonix Isochrome is made up of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, enzymes and coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), and supports insulin activity and metabolism of fatty acids for energy. Chromium picolinate and chromium arginate are two minerals in nutrametrix Isotonix Isochrome that work together to help maintain normal insulin sensitivity. Chromium picolinate supports normal insulin activity and chromium arginate helps maintain healthy blood sugar levels.* CoQ10 is a vital nutrient that promotes normal energy and blood sugar levels by working at the cellular level in the body. CoQ10 powers the heart and the body s energy production cycle, serves as a carrier of electrons and allows the production of ATP in each cell. nutrametrix Isotonix Isochrome contains agents that are highly beneficial to overall stability and maintenance of blood glucose and insulin levels, and is delivered in isotonic form, which promotes complete absorption of each nutrient.* Frequently Asked Questions What is the role of coenzyme Q10 in nutrametrix Isotonix Isochrome? Coenzyme Q10, the vital nutrient that promotes the production of energy at the cellular level, supports the heart and the body s energy production cycle. Within each cell it serves as a carrier of electrons in the electron transport chain promoting the production of ATP, the cell s currency for energy.* Coenzyme Q10 contributes to a healthy cardiovascular system and maintenance of normal blood sugar levels.* Do I need to supplement with coenzyme Q10, even if it is made by my body? Yes. As we age, the ability to synthesize coenzyme Q10 declines. In addition, poor eating habits and stress can contribute to declining levels of this vital nutrient for cell energy production.* Is chromium supplementation safe? Yes. Over 35 clinical trials have been conducted to analyze chromium picolinate and its effects. Why is L-carnitine important and can you obtain it from food? L-carnitine helps transport fatty acids into the mitochondria of each cell, maximizing cell energy production. Highest concentrations of L-carnitine are found in red meats and much lower concentrations appear in white meats, vegetables and whole grains. A healthy diet rich in fresh fruits and vegetables and low in red meats may not provide adequate amounts of L-carnitine.* How do I take nutrametrix Isotonix Isochrome? Pour 1 level, white bottle capful of powder into the overcap. Add water to the line on the overcap (2 fl. oz./60 ml) and stir. As a dietary supplement, take once daily or as directed by your healthcare provider. Maximum absorption occurs when taken with a meal. This product is isotonic only if the specified amounts of powder and water are used. For additional information on nutrametrix products, visit your Health Professional s nutrametrix website.

6 nutrametrix NutriClean Advanced Fiber Powder While the U.S. Surgeon General and many professional health organizations recommend a diet containing 25 to 30 grams of fiber per day for a 2,000- to 2,500-calorie diet, most diets barely provide half of the needed intake about ten to 15 grams per day. With one daily scoop of Market America s NutriClean Advanced Fiber Powder, you receive nine grams of needed fiber that will supplement what you are not able to take in through food.

7 nutrametrix NutriClean Advanced Fiber Powder Primary Benefits* Helps maintain balanced bowels Supports healthy nutrient absorption Helps maintain digestive health Helps maintain proper levels of intestinal microflora Helps relieve occasional constipation Helps support normal bowel regularity and fecal volume Promotes colon health Promotes healthy growth of beneficial bacteria in the colon Provides fuel for cells lining the small intestine Supports healthy intestinal function What Makes This Product Unique?

Frequently Asked Questions Why is fiber so important to overall health? The average American does not get nearly enough fiber in their daily diet. This is definitely unfortunate because fiber should be among one of the most important components of your diet, yet it is often overlooked. Fiber benefits include the ability to help maintain healthy cholesterol levels, glucose levels, intestinal regularity and healthy intestinal microflora (food for good bacteria). What is Fibersol-2? Fibersol-2 is an innovative, dynamic type of fiber. It is a unique soluble fiber from corn, a readily available source. It is not absorbed into the blood stream, which means that it remains intact and ready for action in the lower portion of the digestive tract, the colon. It offers all of the benefits of fiber previously listed. Fibersol-2 promotes regularity and relief to the average American who consumes a typical diet, which is often laden with processed foods of little to no nutritional value. How do I take nutrametrix NutriClean Advanced Fiber Powder? Mix one rounded scoop (12.2 g) of NutriClean Advanced Fiber Powder in an eight-fluid ounce glass of cold water, stir or shake briskly and drink immediately. Drink plenty of fluids while using this product. For additional information on nutrametrix products, visit your Health Professional s nutrametrix website.
