EMPowerplus Ultimate (15)

The minerals in Ultimate are 20x smaller than human cells. This allows the body to absorb them in their entirety – providing more potent nutrition in just one capsule per day than ever before. Although Advanced goes through a chelation and micronization process, the minerals are not absorbed as efficiently as they are in Ultimate. Therefore you need more capsules per day of the Advanced to experience similar results compared to Ultimate.
We would love everyone to have the opportunity to try the EMPowerplus Ultimate, however it may not be suggested in all situations. If you are in the middle of a cross-taper process with psychiatric medications, we may not suggest switching over to Ultimate. Please seek the recommendation from your doctor or one of our support specialists who can help you decide.
Yes

EMPowerplus Ultimate contains Folate (as Calcium L-5-MTHF) where EMPowerplus Advanced contains Folate (as Folic acid)
Yes. We understand that not everyone is comfortable changing to something new, especially when a person is feeling well and stable. We respect this and will continue to keep the other forms of the EMPowerplus available for our customers.
Ultimate is generally well-tolerated even for those who are sensitive or who may be on a lower dose of EMPowerplus. Please speak to one of our support specialists if you are considering trying Ultimate.
Ultimate is made using gelatin capsules.
The EMPowerPlus Ultimate contains Folate.
One capsule per day for adults and children over 12 years old.
The EMPowerplus Ultimate ingredients have been broken down to a cellular level which allows the body to absorb the nutrients immediately.
Mental well-being is based on many different factors but in general, Ultimate provides the same level of mental stability as previous forms of EMPowerplus, if not more.
The needs of the body can change over time and because of this the dosage of the Ultimate may need to be adjusted as well.
The minerals in Ultimate are 20 times smaller than human cells. The body absorbs them in their entirety, ensuring maximum nutrition at a cellular level. Your body receives all of the vitamins, minerals, and amino acids it needs to thrive from just one capsule daily. Our breakthrough absorption technology provides a steady release of micronutrients that lasts all day.
Introducing the ultimate to your children is left up to parental discretion. It is recommended that you begin with half a capsule and work your way up to one capsules.
New technology used to produce Ultimate is ground-breaking and expensive, but we believe the enhanced health results are worth the time and extra expense. Although the cost per package of Ultimate is more than Advanced, the recommended dose is only one capsule per day so the overall cost can actually be less than the Advanced.

* For example, please note that many Truehope participants take between 6-8 capsules per day of the EMPowerplus Advanced. This means they would be going through 1.5 to 2 bottles per month. At this rate, using the Ultimate for these individuals could end up saving them money.
If you are working with your Doctor it would be best if you discussed switching to the Ultimate with them before making any changes.

EMPowerplus Advanced (13)

Multi-vitamins are intended to boost the function of the mind and body to promote an overall healthy lifestyle. As a specially formulated multi-vitamin, EMPowerplus Advanced can supplement the nutrients required to promote a more balanced life.
EMPowerplus Advanced is a specially formulated multi-vitamin, mineral and amino acid supplement designed to assist in creating a balanced life. The creators of EMPowerplus Advanced discovered that the cause of many mood disorders is usually related to nutrient deficiencies or an inability to extract vital nutrients from food. By adding EMPowerplus Advanced, the body is typically able to establish the right levels of vitamins and minerals required for proper brain function.

The process by which EMPowerplus Advanced is formulated is extremely unique and takes up to 12 times as long as that of regular multi-vitamins, causing the supplement to be much more absorbable and effective.

The majority of vitamin and mineral supplements found in supermarkets and health food stores cannot be easily digested due to the size of the particles and the improper ratios of certain minerals and vitamins that depend on each other for full absorption. Many supplements also contain inferior chelates and low quality ingredients.

The unique formula and the advanced technology used to produce EMPowerplus address these common problems, making EMPowerplus Advanced the highest quality micronutrient formulation available on the market today.

Micronization: Using cutting edge technology, minerals are pulverized to a size the body can use. While most supplements are produced in 4 hours, the EMPowerplus Advanced micronization process takes up to 4 days.

Chelation: Minerals are difficult for the body to digest in pure form. To overcome this, EMPowerplus Advanced minerals go through a rigorous process that wraps them in organic molecules and binds them to proteins the body can easily recognize and digest.

Balance: Vitamins and minerals depend on each other for absorption in the body. For example, you need the right amount of zinc to absorb magnesium fully. Similarly, without vitamin D in balance, calcium cannot be readily absorbed. The micronutrients in EMPowerplus Advanced have been deliberately proportioned and balanced for maximum absorption and effectiveness.

Quantity: The average therapeutic dose of EMPowerplus Advanced provides a full spectrum of micronutrients in high enough doses to sufficiently address deficiencies and promote proper metabolic functioning.

Most medications attempt to address the symptoms of vitamin and mineral deficiencies and not the core issue of imbalance. Rather than covering up the symptoms with medication, EMPowerplus Advanced aims to address the core concerns and eliminate deficiencies that cause many symptoms related to mood disorders.
Until now, the EMPowerplus Advanced formulation has been available only for clinical use. There have been numerous studies on the effectiveness and safety of the EMPowerplus Advanced formulation. There are currently 35 medical journal publications on the EMPowerplus Advanced formulation.
As a multi-vitamin and mineral supplement, EMPowerplus Advanced is 100% natural and safe. Many children with behavioral issues or mood disorders have been helped by the EMPowerplus Advanced formulation.
Yes. EMPowerplus Advanced is gluten and dairy free.
Although EMPowerplus Advanced is all natural, you should always check with your doctor before starting any new supplement programs.
Due to the potency and powerful formulation of EMPowerplus Advanced we don't recommend using it long term in conjunction with any psychotropic drugs. Always consult your doctor or health care specialist for medical advice before starting a new supplement regimen such as EMPowerplus Advanced. The support staff at Truehope are specially trained to work with those who are on medications or who wish to reduce their medication dosages.
EMPowerplus is great for people with mood-related issues, but it can be just as beneficial when taken for General Health and Prevention. Vitamins and minerals are involved in virtually every biological process, so if you experience micronutrient deficiencies it will have a broad effect throughout the brain and body. Broadspectrum micronutrients like the EMPowerplus Advanced may benefit memory and increase mental clarity and energy.
EMPowerplus can be taken with other supplements however it is best to speak to one of the Truehope support team about the specific supplements you are taking. For example, taking EMPowerplus with certain minerals will disrupt the minerals balance. To avoid this we recommend taking other minerals at night before bed or 2 hours apart from EMPowerplus. We ask our participants to avoid, if possible, certain mood-altering herbs while on our Truhope program. There are no concerns about taking EMPowerplus with other vitamins.
EMPowerplus only uses natural sources. The vitamins in our product are amalgamated from whole food sources. The minerals come from a raw state.

The Truehope Support team works with both individuals and doctors in managing the transition process to micronutrients. The Truehope Support team members are not medical professionals but are highly knowledgeable about EMPowerplus Advanced. They have helped thousands of individuals with various mental health issues successfully transition to EMPowerplus Advanced.
No two people have exactly the same experience with starting EMPowerplus Advanced. Factors such as age, general health, medication use and lifestyle can all affect the speed of recovery. While some may have a more difficult time at the beginning than others, we have seen even very heavily medicated, sick people become well over time.
This a simple question that has a complex answer, as there are many factors that can affect an individual’s response time such as the severity of the nutritional deficiency, absorption rate or issues, dosage and medications. Therefore, it is best to be patient and allow any supplement a minimum of 3 months commitment. Best results are experienced by those who compliantly follow protocol and address limiting factors.

Transitioning From Psychiatric Medications(4)

Psychotropic (psychiatric) medications will interfere with the EMPowerplus over a period of time. As brain function improves you can become increasingly over-medicated. You can feel more side effects of the medication or increased symptoms of the original disorder. These medications should be gradually tapered off under the supervision of a physician and/or the trained support staff at Truehope.
As you build up the key nutrient balance in your body and the medications become an issue you may begin to feel over-drugged and experience more side effects of the medication. You may also feel that you are getting worse. This is the brain's signal that it's time for a reduction of these medications. PLEASE DO NOT adjust medications on your own. These medications must be reduced gradually or withdrawal effects can be severe.

No! When an individual takes psychotropic medications the brain can form a dependency and if you stop them "cold turkey" not only can withdrawal effects be severe but you can become very ill. The nutritional foundation must be at a sufficient level to start the gradual tapering process. As the nutritional foundation level grows more of the medication can be reduced gently, keeping you comfortable in this transition. That is why you need to have the support of experts trained in our nutrient protocols to assist you during this process.

It's also very important that when you are transitioning off of the medications that you have not only the support of your physician and the Truehope support staff, but the support of a family member(s), friend(s) and if possible a good counselor that can support you and your decision to take ownership of you own health.

If you have any questions in regards to transitioning off of medications, please call Truehope at 1-888-878-3467 and one of our support team will be more than happy to assist you.
