All of our products are allergen-free (dairy, soy, gluten) and are vegan, with the exception of Enhance which contains the fatty acids EPA and DHA derived from anchovies. These fatty acids are crucial for brain health and best derived from fatty fish.

How should I store my supplements?

To maintain the quality and potency of your supplements, we recommend storing them in a cool, dry space or cupboard. While it is not necessary to refrigerate Essentials , if you live in a hotter climate, you may want to consider refrigerating Enhance and Flourish to preserve the integrity of the fish oils and probiotic strains.

Can I take Essentials by Revivele with other supplements? What about medications?

It’s always a good idea to consult with your healthcare practitioner before starting any new supplements or medications, especially if you are on prescription medications. While Essentials by Revivele should be safe to take alongside other supplements, we do recommend checking with your healthcare practitioner first.

Should I take Essentials by Revivele with food?

For the best absorption and effectiveness, we recommend taking some Essentials products with food, such as Inhale, Enhance, and Flow. This can help ensure that your body is able to properly digest and absorb the nutrients in these supplements. Our Bloom gummies and Exhale capsules can be taken with or without food, however we do recommend taking our Flourish probiotic on an empty stomach. If you experience any upset stomach or digestive issues, it is perfectly fine to take these with food as well. Ultimately, listen to your body and take Essentials in the way that feels best for you.

What will happen if I take Essentials by Revivele products when they are expired?

Expiry dates are a way for the industry to regulate supplements, but the truth is that the efficacy of our products will not be affected for months beyond the expiry date. Our supplements have been formulated to be stable for an extended period, ensuring that you can enjoy the full benefits of our products even after the expiration date has passed. Rest assured that our team takes great care in formulating and testing our supplements to ensure their potency and effectiveness, no matter when you choose to take them.

What happens if I miss a dose? Or a few doses?

Hey, things happen! If you happen to miss a dose of our Essentials products, don’t worry. Simply continue with your regular dosing schedule as soon as you remember. We do not recommend taking extra doses to make up for any missed ones, as this could potentially lead to adverse effects. It’s always best to stick to the recommended dosage and speak with your healthcare practitioner if you have any concerns or questions.

Are your products vegetarian/vegan friendly?

We are happy to inform you that all of our products are vegan-friendly, except for Enhance which contains Omega 3 fatty acids sourced from anchovies. These fatty acids are crucial for brain health and best derived from fatty fish. We understand the importance of catering to different dietary needs and preferences, and we are proud to offer products that are suitable for a wide range of individuals.

Should I notice significant changes from taking my vitamins?

Certainly! We believe that you should notice some positive changes from taking our vitamins, such as improved sleep and mental clarity within a relatively short time frame. However, it’s important to remember that some of our ingredients are intended to provide long-term health benefits, which may not be immediately noticeable. Therefore, we recommend giving our products a chance to work and waiting 2-3 months before expecting significant results.

How quickly will I feel better after taking your supplements?

Great question! At Revivele, we believe in the power of natural ingredients to help support your health and wellness. While some of our supplements may provide quick improvements such as better sleep or mental clarity within days or 1-2 weeks, others are designed for long-term health benefits and may not have an immediate noticeable effect. It is important to give your body time to adjust and for the ingredients to work their magic. As with any healthy lifestyle change, we do recommend waiting 2-3 months before

When should I take my vitamins? Are they safe to take together?

We recommend spacing out your vitamins to not only improve absorption, but Essentials products were designed to be taken at specific times of day based on when they might benefit you most. We recommend taking Inhale, Enhance, and Bloom earlier in the day.  Flow is best when taken midday (although could be combined with Inhale, if you wish). Exhale and Flourish are best if taken at night before bedtime.

What is the expiration date of my vitamins and supplements?

Expiry dates can be found on every individual bottle/ bag in our line.

Can I take all the products at once? Why is it spread out over the day?

With the exception of Exhale, it’s entirely up to you if you wish to combine some of the products or take them all at the same time. However, we still recommend spacing out your vitamins to not only improve absorption but also because Essentials products were designed to be taken at specific times of day based on when they might benefit you most. We suggest taking Inhale, Enhance, and Bloom earlier in the day, Flow is best when taken midday (although could be combined with Inhale, if you wish), and Exhale and Flourish are best if taken at night before bedtime.

I find swallowing pills difficult. What are my options?

If you find it difficult to swallow pills, there are a few options that may help. You can try refrigerating your supplements and/or taking them with cold water, as this can often make them easier to swallow. Another option is to try drinking water from a “pop bottle” or narrow mouth water bottle, as this can also help with swallowing larger pills. Leaning forward as you swallow can also be beneficial for some people. If necessary, the tablets can be cut in half, but please keep in mind that this may compromise the enteric coating on Inhale and Flow, and may result in increased stomach upset.

The pills are too big for me to swallow. What can I do?

Yikes! We understand the struggle. Capsules can be opened up into a tablespoon of applesauce, however it may have a bitter taste. The tablets can be cut in half, if necessary, however be aware that this does compromise the enteric coating on Inhale and Flow. Enteric coating has been applied to these tablets to delay when they are broken down, to bypass the stomach and reduce stomach upset.

I feel nausea after taking supplements. What can I do?

Sorry to hear that! Please make sure you are taking any supplements that may cause stomach upset with food. 

If you still experience nausea or stomach upset, consider spreading out the dose throughout the day, or reducing the dose you take and working up to a full dose over 1-2 weeks.

Additionally, drinking plenty of water before and after taking your supplements may also help with any nausea or stomach discomfort. If you continue to experience these symptoms, it may be worth discussing with your healthcare provider to rule out any underlying issues.

I have never taken supplements before. Is it okay for me to take Essentials?

It’s perfectly fine for you to take Essentials, but we do recommend a gradual start. WE suggest you introduce each product over 1-2 weeks, as it gives your body time to adjust. If you experience any minor side effects, please reach out to our customer representatives at support@revivele.com, and we would be happy to help you. If you experience any adverse effects, stop taking the supplements and consult with your healthcare provider.

Is Essentials by Revivele safe to take while I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?

Our Essentials products are not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women without consulting a healthcare professional first. It’s always best to check with your healthcare provider before starting any new supplement regimen to ensure it is safe for you and your baby.

Are there any side effects when taking Essentials by Revivele?

While we have not received reports of any major side effects from our customers, some individuals may experience minor digestive issues such as bloating or upset stomach. It’s important to keep in mind that each individual’s experience may be different. If you do experience any minor symptoms while taking Essentials, please feel free to contact us at support@revivele.com and one of our customer service representatives will be happy to assist you, as there are several modifications that can be made that can help reduce negative symptoms. However, if you experience serious symptoms, we recommend that you discontinue use and consult your healthcare provider. They will be able to provide you with personalized advice based on your individual health profile. It’s always a good idea to talk to your healthcare provider before starting any new supplement regimen.

Have your products gone through any testing to ensure they are what you say?

We take pride in our rigorous testing processes and are committed to providing safe and effective products for our customers.

What happens if I take more than the recommended dose per day? If I miss a day, can I take extra the following day to make up the difference?

We applaud you for your enthusiasm, however we do not advise you to take more than the daily recommended dose. No, you do not need to double up if you miss a dose.

Is Revivele FDA-approved?

While nutritional supplements are not required to undergo an approval process (like prescription medications), we do meet all FDA requirements in regard to dose levels, labelling, bottling and ingredient safety testing.

What are functional mushrooms? What mushrooms were used and why? Will they make me high?

Functional mushrooms are a type of mushroom that are used for their medicinal properties. They have been used for centuries in traditional medicine, and recently, modern science has been studying them extensively for their health benefits.

Functional mushrooms contain various bioactive compounds that have been linked to immune support, anti-inflammatory effects, and improved cognitive function. Some of the most commonly used functional mushrooms include reishi, chaga, lion’s mane, cordyceps, and shiitake.

On the other hand, “magic” mushrooms refer to a specific type of mushroom, namely psilocybin-containing mushrooms. These mushrooms contain the psychoactive compound psilocybin, which can induce altered states of consciousness, including hallucinations and mystical experiences.

The main difference between functional mushrooms and “magic” mushrooms is that functional mushrooms are used for their medicinal properties, while “magic” mushrooms are used primarily for their psychoactive effects. While both types of mushrooms have potential health benefits, they have distinct uses and effects.

Why are some of the doses higher than drugstore brands?

Good catch! However, this was intentional as we did our research and found evidence that taking higher doses of some supplements can really help protect your health in the long run. Our supplements may help lower your risk of developing diseases like dementia, heart disease, cancer, and immune disorders. Plus, they may even help with hormone imbalances during perimenopause. So, we’re really trying to give your body the ongoing support it needs to stay healthy and strong.

Why is calcium not included?

That’s a great question. Essentials does not include calcium because research has shown that there can be potential health risks associated with consuming calcium in supplement form. Calcium, in supplement form, can deposit in the artery, and lead to cardiovascular disease in some people. However, Essentials does contain other nutrients that work to support bone health, such as vitamin D which is Essential for calcium absorption, and vitamin K2 which is necessary to ensure that the calcium is properly transported to where it is needed (our bones!) rather than depositing in our arteries and causing calcification there. We feel that calcium supplementation needs should be determined individually by your healthcare practitioner, as many people can obtain enough calcium from their diet alone.

What if I’m on prescription medications?

Please check with your healthcare practitioner to determine if Essentials is safe for you.

If you are currently taking any prescription medication, we strongly recommend that you consult with your healthcare practitioner before starting to take Essentials. This will help to ensure that the supplements will not interact negatively with any medication you are currently taking. While Essentials is made with high-quality ingredients, it is important to consider your overall health and any medication you are taking when deciding whether to take supplements. Your healthcare practitioner will be able to advise you on whether Essentials is safe for you based on your individual health needs and medication regimen.

Where do you source your products from?

At Revivele, we work with a reputable manufacturer who has extensive experience in sourcing the best quality ingredients from around the world. Our manufacturer follows strict quality control standards to ensure that all of our products meet our high standards for quality and effectiveness. We take pride in the quality of our products and are committed to ensuring that our customers receive only the best.

Why is the price for Essentials higher than my drugstore brand supplements?

It’s actually not! Keep in mind that Essentials has 48 ingredients and is a 6 product system that is specially blended into 14 doses per day. If you source each of our ingredients at these doses from your local drugstore, you will see that not only is our price the same or less, but those other brands would comprise of 50+ pills per day!!
