Shaklee Vivix®

A 30-day supply of Vivix delivers the equivalent amount of resveratrol found in 3,000 glasses of red wine, and Vivix ingredients were shown in a laboratory study to be 10 times more powerful in slowing a key mechanism of aging than resveratrol alone .

Shaklee scientists have worked for years to create and deliver a unique blend with polyphenol ingredients shown in laboratory studies to address cellular aging and these ingredients also support heart health, brain health and cardiovascular function, enhanced immunity, and joint health. To deliver the world’s best anti-aging supplement exclusively to you, Shaklee has secured the entire supply of one of the key ingredients from the largest and best growers in the world, and filed for multiple patents to protect this innovation.



How We Age

Does "aging" mean "old?" Not really. Science tells us aging begins even before we reach adulthood, occurring at the cellular level. Billions of research dollars have been spent in an attempt to understand how the aging process, works and what can be done to slow it down.

Our bodies face these four mechanisms of cellular aging:
It’s a fact of life. Aging begins long before we can see or feel any changes – at the cellular level. Is cellular aging inevitable? Well, we can’t stop time, but emerging research reveals we may be able to influence these biological aging processes in positive ways. This has to do with how efficiently cells repair and replicate themselves, which affects your health, well-being and the aging process in various ways.


DNA Damage
Every day, every cell in your body is bombarded by up to a million DNA-damaging assaults. These assaults can damage the cell’s genetic database, creating a “typo” that may compromise cell function and longevity.

Genetic Regulators
Genetic regulators contribute to age-related cellular deterioration by controlling the dynamic balance between damage and repair, including whether a cell will live or not.

Declining Cellular Energy Production
Mitochondria in our cells create energy we can’t live without. As mitochondrial efficiency decreases, cell function declines.

Accumulation of AGE Proteins (AGE)
Excess accumulation of Advanced Glycation Endproducts can cause cellular damage that can compromise cell integrity and longevity.



Exclusive, Potent, Patents-Pending

It took Shaklee scientists years of research to develop Vivix™. In fact, Vivix is the most complex product ever developed by the Shaklee science team because of the challenges to create and isolate a unique profile of polyphenols shown in laboratory studies to fight cellular aging. Shaklee was able to secure the entire output of a key ingredient from the largest and best growers in the world. The result is a remarkable dietary supplement with ingredients that have been laboratory tested to address the four key mechanisms of cellular aging, and Shaklee has filed multiple patents to protect this innovation.

Beyond Resveratrol
Vivix™ Patents-Pending Rejuvetrol™ Blend. All resveratrol is not created equal. One teaspoon of Vivix supplies the equivalent amount of resveratrol found in 100 glasses of red wine. And Vivix goes beyond resveratrol. A 30-day supply of Vivix delivers the equivalent amount of resveratrol found in 3,000 glasses of red wine. In laboratory studies, the ingredients in Vivix have been shown to be 10X more powerful than resveratrol alone in slowing the formation of AGE proteins.

The Most Potent Resveratrol
Shaklee scientists sourced the purest and most potent natural resveratrol. In fact, this extract’s resveratrol content is no less than 98%, and the amount of resveratrol found in Vivix is guided by the latest scientific studies and emerging research.

Super Polyphenols from the Super Grape
Our research also zeroed in on a remarkable super grape, known as Vitis rotundifolia or Muscadines grape. This is the only grape found in nature with an extra chromosome, which scientists believe greatly enhances its polyphenol profile and potential health benefits. In collaboration with scientists from the University of Georgia, Shaklee scientists employed a bioassay-guided process, which resulted in a patent-pending super grape extract with ellagic acid, a polyphenol not found in ordinary grapes. Ellagic acid is thought to be responsible for many of the unique cellular anti-aging actions of the super grape in the Vivix formulation.

Broad Spectrum of Polyphenols
In addition, the Shaklee patent-pending extract supplies other potent polyphenols affecting cellular longevity pathways, such as phenolic acids, ellagitannins, anthocyanins, and proanthocyanidins.
