Mission
To Provide the highest quality natural food supplements and Edutrition without compromise.

Vision
To provide the most accurate, current knowledge on the living energy of whole foods. We will continue to
utilize the research and philosophies of trusted scientists, doctors and natural hygienists for the nutri-
tional care and health of you and your family.

Edutrition: Definition
The blending of Education and Nutritional Instruction. The understanding of how nutrition impacts our
health, with the aim of being able to make educated choices for a healthy lifestyle.

The VP Assurance to You


VP provides only the highest quality enzyme and nutritional products available VP Clinically tests each of
its products. We utilize the expertise of doctors, biochemists and clinicians in formulating our products.
Each new formula is clinically tested through ongoing trials by our health professionals.

VP is continuously researching new sources and synergistic combination of ingredients. Our strength and
focus is developing and delivering products that actually help people achieve optimum health and live
better lives.

VP uses an exclusive proprietary Active-blend process for its enzyme formulas. This means that each of
these enzymes actually represent multiple blends. For example, there are actually four proteases in the
Protease blend. They are blended for their ability to break down numerous bonds of protein in varying pH
levels.

VP Nutrition was founded with a mission to manufacture the highest quality products without compromise.

BioTherapeudix

BioCandida is a high potency enzyme product which combines protease with cel-
lulase. This is an excellent formula for supporting patients with yeast overgrowth
by breaking down yeast cells, and removing fiber and mucus from the intestine.
Cellulase is able to support the breakdown of fiber and mucus in the intestines,
which can protect yeast cells from the body's natural regulatory systems. Cel-
lulase can also break down chitin in yeast. Proteases target the protein which
makes up the yeast cells. BioCandida supports recovery from yeast overgrowth
through cleaning the intestines and attacking the yeast and infection sites directly.*
Suggested Use: For moderate symptoms, take 2 capsules, 3 times a day at least 1
hour before or 2 hours after a meal for 7 days (for maintenance 2 a day). For acute
symptoms, take 2 capsules, 3 times a day at least 1/2 hour before or 2 hours after
a meal for 14 days. In extreme cases more time may be given. For best results 1
BioVira may be needed.

BioGastro reduces the gas and bloating that can result from the consumption of
raw vegetables, grains and legumes because it is an excellent source of amylase,
which is needed to break down and assimilate carbohydrates. Essential nutrients
from plant foods are able to support protein and fat metabolism, help fight infec-
tion, promote growth of bones and assist in skin rejuvenation. Unfortunately the dis-
comfort and difficulty that can occur upon consuming these foods is problematic
because these are essential foods, but including them in the diet can cause discom-
fort. BioGastro has four different varieties of enzymes that will break down carbo-
hydrates in the forms of starch, glycogen, and similar polysaccharides. This allows
the body to take full advantage of these nutrient rich foods, without the discomfort.*
Suggested Use: Take one capsule at the beginning of each meal. More may be
taken as needed.

BioPhenol contains a phenol-targeting enzyme blend. Some individuals ex-


perience difficulty digesting phenols. Phenols are quite difficult to avoid in the
world of modern food and plant based foods, since complete abstinence from
phenolic compounds is usually not possible or even recommended Amylase, also
called carbohydrase, is needed to break down the carbohydrates in our mod-
ern diet. Complex carbohydrates present in healthy foods are essential to over-
all health. People must obtain amylase through the diet, as it is an enzyme our
body does not produce. It is no surprise that many individuals suffer from a defi-
ciency of this all-important enzyme when considering how frequently it is used.*
Suggested Use: Take one or more capsules of BioPhenol at the beginning of each
meal (dosage can be adjusted) The capsule may be opened and mixed with food if
desired. Safe for children.

BioTherapeudix

BioVira contains the highest available potency of an exclusive blend of eight proteases
to help the body to purify. BioVira can break down proteins, viruses, fungal forms
like Candida, parasites, bacteria, cellular particles, and can assist in the breakdown
of toxins, all of which can end up in the blood stream. This frees up the immune
system by performing this task—one the immune system usually must cope with. The
immune system can now concentrate its full action on the invasion of harmful viruses
and organisms. Viruses will be broken with the body's natural defenses supported.
Viruses can now be attacked directly, broken down by proteases while this supple-
ment balances the immune system, so the benefit to the immune system is twofold.*
Suggested Usage: Maintenance - 1 capsule, twice a day, 1 hour before or 2 hours
after a meal, (empty stomach). For therapeutic purposes BioVira should be taken 3-4
times per day. More capsules may be added as needed.

Gluten Intolerance results when the body has difficulty breaking down and absorbing
specific amino acid links in gluten, called peptides. GlutenAide contains enzymes that
offer assistance in the digestion and assimilation to offending proteins. Proteases high in
DPP-IV activity assist in normalizing (reducing) inflammatory response to the peptides
found in gluten, thus better digesting and utilizing all the components of foods containing
large amounts of gluten. This proactively assists the gut, allowing peptides to be prop-
erly broken down. GlutenAide also contains Amylase Active-blend and Glucoamylase for
the fast, healthy digestion of carbohydrates in offending foods. This causes broadening
the potential food groups a person may include in their diet. GlutenAide may even be
used by those who wish to remain on the GFCF diet without any negative side effects.*
Suggested Usage: Take one capsule with any meal containing gluten of casein.
More may be added as needed.

TheraGest Spectrum combines multiple strains of lipase, cellulase, protease, and


amylase with specialized enzymes for gluten, phenol, dairy and casein digestion
to provide a complete solution for children and adults dealing with multiple food
sensitivities. Different enzyme strains require varying pH ranges to function. The
multiple strains present for each enzyme category ensure that enzymes will be ef-
fective no matter where they reach in the body! Crisis results when the body is not
able to process foods or other substances because of an inherent lack of enzymes.
A deficiency of specific types of vital enzymes not only hinders the body's ability
to fully utilize nutrients and causes the body to exhibit negative physical reactions
common to food intolerance. This fine product can assist the body by aiding diges-
tion so that all the nutrients taken in can be fully absorbed to benefit the body.*
Suggested Usage: Take one capsule before each meal, two or more may be taken if
needed.
