Vibrant Health Celebrates 25 Years Twenty-five years ago, on the second floor of a little barn, a tiny dietary supplement company was born. Founder Mark Timon had at last been able to set aside just a few thousand dollars to manufacture the first 500 jars of Green Vibrance, which became the first "green superfood." He wanted to make a strong, general nutrition product that would "get you right" on the inside. No tablet or capsule could do the job. A powder was called for. Today, Green Vibrance is an award-winning nutritional supplement on the market. "Vibrance" can be described as the com- bined vitality of each cell in the body. Green Vibrance provides trace nutrients that help each cell function at peak efficiency. When we push each cell toward peak efficiency through diet and supplementation, the result may be increased energy and endurance, greater clarity of thought, more robust im- munity and a shift in all bodily functions to- ward the ideal. The company's promise is to design and market the most nutritionally valuable food supplements it can for the benefit of all men, women and children. De- livering on that promise is a serious endeavor, and the company works dili- gently toward that end. Vibrant Health's products provide supplemental nu- trition that supports human biochemistry. Its groundbreaking formulas are dynamic by design™, evolving as new discoveries in nutritional science come to light. The company has, and always will use full disclosure labeling. Truth. Trust. Transparency™ is its creed. To mark the company's 25th Anniversary, it is releasing limited edition Green Vibrance flavors: Choco- late Coconut and Matcha Tea. These can be sampled at booth #3039. Stop by to vote for your favorite flavor, and don't miss the celebration at the booth on Friday, September 15th. Founder Mark Timon is there to sign his book, "Controlling Bad Bacte- ria," followed by light fare and a champagne toast. Visit Vibrant Health at booth #3039.
