Melaleuca Product Stories
My son, Noah, has been on ADHD medication for a lot of his childhood- since he was three years old. I have been afraid to do anything different than what the doctor prescribed because his behavior is out of control when he is not on his medication. Recently we lost our insurance and I could not afford the medication for him anymore. I was very afraid but I decided to take the plunge and try the Melaleuca vitamins. I had heard that they were helping other kids with ADHD. I started a daily regimen with him of the KOALA PALS VITAMINS, PROVEX PLUS, COLDWATER OMEGA 3’s, and the UNFORGETTABLES. To my surprise Noah’s behavior has drastically improved. He is more easily redirected, he is eating like a horse, he is napping daily and he is less moody and aggravated. I am so happy to say that he is a pleasure to be around! Even Noah said to me, “Mom, I feel like I am in control of my body.” Melaleuca has literally changed our family’s life! Gina R.

Five years ago my husband was diagnosed with an enlarged prostate. He was having a lot of the problems associated with his prostate not being normal. The doctor put him on Avodart and Tansulosin (Flomax). Both of these drugs can have some pretty serious side effects. Some of the more mild side effects he had from them were hair loss on his hands and chest and a puffiness of the face. The drugs also didn’t seem to help him with the problem of feeling that he needed to go to the bathroom often, so he was up a couple of times a night (which caused him to feel exhausted a lot of the time). A few months ago he decided to give Melaleuca’s PROSTAVAN a try. He went completely off his prescribed medications and exclusively took the recommended dose of PROSTAVAN. To both our surprise his hair started to grow back, the puffiness left his face and, best of all, the frequent trips to the bathroom day and night are a thing of the past. Ann G.- Colorado
Product Highlight
PROVEX CV and other PROVEX Products
PROVEX CV helps to reduce LDL (“bad”) cholesterol oxidation and promote healthy blood platelet activity. The all-natural ingredients that make up PROVEX CV were carefully chosen and meticulously combined to deliver enhanced cardiovascular protection. Melaleuca tested dozens of strains of grapes and ended up going halfway around the world to use the absolute best, most heart-protecting grape seed and grape skin. Because Melaleuca is one of the world’s largest buyers of grape extracts for PROVEX CV, it means Melaleuca can guarantee the consistent quality of PROVEX CV.
- Super-Concentrated Grape Seed
The grape seed in PROVEX CV is a leading source of one of the most beneficial groups of plant flavonoids: proanthocyanidins. These flavonoids have been found to have a powerful antioxidant effect neutralizing free radicals before they can cause damage. Studies have shown that the antioxidant power of proanthocyanidins can be up to 20 times greater than vitamin E and up to 50 times greater than vitamin C. The super-concentrated grape seeds in PROVEX CV use a proprietary process that increases bioavailability and antioxidant value, and can help maintain healthy blood pressure levels. The extract has been further fortified with a large amount of anthocyanins, which have been shown to help maintain healthy platelet levels. Research has shown that grape seed helps heart health by strengthening capillaries, arteries, and veins. Finally, PROVEX CV’s grape seed extract also contains gallic esters which are powerful free-radical scavengers.
- Super- Concentrated Grape Skin
The flavonoids found in PROVEX CV’s grape skin extract contain many of the common components of grape juice, such as anthocyanins (another class of flavonoids), tartaric acid, tannins, and minerals. These components are believed to help promote healthy blood platelet activity. In addition, the anthocyanins possess free-radical-scavenging action that protects against LDL cholesterol oxidation.
- Reservatrol
A polyphenolic compound found in grapes and some berries that has been shown in lab tests to neutralize free radicals and inhibit LDL oxidation; it is also associated with maintaining healthy platelet function and supporting endothelial function.
- Ginkgo Biloba
PROVEX CV contains Ginkgo biloba extract because research suggests it has significant free-radical-scavenging property, which can help reduce LDL cholesterol oxidation.
- Bilberry
Historically, bilberry has been used for the treatment of scurvy, dysentery, eyestrain, visual acuity, and day and night blindness. PROVEX CV includes bilberry because it contains flavonoids, known as anthocyanosides, which have been shown to prevent free radical damage. These flavonoids also help maintain the integrity of capillaries and stabilize oxygen, which in turn helps give artery walls their structural integrity. Studies show that bilberry also promotes healthy platelet activity.
- Quercetin
The last flavonoid in PROVEX CV is quercetin-found in red wine and grape juice, in fruits and vegetables, and in the hops, malt, and barley used to make beer and wine. Dr. Folts and other researchers have found that quercetin, by itself, promotes healthy platelet activity. By adding quercetin to the grape extracts, the cardio-protective power is increased. Quercetin has also been shown to be effective in free radical scavenging which reduces LDL cholesterol oxidation.
- Green tea extract
A natural extract containing the catechin EGCG, which is associated with healthy vascular endothelial.
The Exclusive PROVEX CV Enzyme Blend
The flavonoid and antioxidants in PROVEX CV are simply the best available for protecting your heart and the rest of your cardiovascular system. However, it has been established through scientific studies that although flavonoids are present in plant extracts, they are not all bioavailable. That’s where PROVEX CV’s exclusive enzyme blend comes in. This blend greatly enhances flavonoid absorption and thereby increases their antioxidant and cardiovascular health properties. Enzymes are involved in the breakdown of foods in the digestive tract. The PROVEX CV research team found that by adding a special enzyme blend to the PROVEX CV formula, it increases the ability of the flavonoids to reduce LDL cholesterol oxidation and promote healthy blood platelet activity. PROVEX CV’s enzyme blend helps maximize the absorption and performance of the antioxidants by as much as six times.
The extraction process for PROVEX CV ensures you receive only premium grape antioxidants, without getting leftover winemaking grapes or sulfur dioxide, so the extracts are potent and contaminant-free.
