I looked all over the place, but could not find a single clinical study on Univera's Ageless Xtra product.

I did find a clinical study on EIRO's Super-antioxidant liquid nutritional showing a significant increase in cellular antioxidant levels:

Blood was collected four times over a two-hour test period so that effects on blood markers of antioxidant activity and cellular health could be determined.

...superoxide dismutase (SOD) rose after consumption of the fruit juice beverage. Between the fruit juice beverage and water, the positive findings on SOD were highly statistically significant at the 60 minute mark (increase of 0.24 ± 0.214; p=0.006).

Discussion
Superoxide dismutase is important in the body’s oxidant defense system. SOD is an enzyme that neutralizes the superoxide radical, one of the most prevalent free radicals in the human body. SOD levels decrease with age and play an important role in protecting cells and DNA from damage caused by oxidative stress.

Univera Lawsuit: Company Sued By Former Top Distributors

DENVER, June 25 /PRNewswire/ -- It's a lawsuit that may help determine "who owns who" in the world of multi-level marketing. According to John Terhune, one of the plaintiffs who filed suit in state court in Volusia County, Florida, today, "The last thing we wanted to do was get involved in litigation. All we wanted to do was build businesses and help others do the same."

Terhune, along with former Univera leaders Marshall Douglas and Joe Land, are former distributors of Univera who have joined together in a lawsuit alleging the company has bullied its associates with threats of litigation and economic ruin if their sales networks move to a competitor. The filing comes on the heels of two actions Univera filed against them in Seattle earlier this year.

Terhune and his fellow plaintiffs spent years building their multi-level marketing network into a thriving family business. As a distributor of Univera products, Terhune, Douglas, and Land managed a vast network of associates, many of whom they personally recruited. For several years all three enjoyed a great relationship with Washington state-based Univera, a company known for its popular dietary supplements. Univera recognized Terhune as its Associate of the Year in 2007 and bestowed the Yun Ho Lee Award, Univera's most prestigious leadership and sales award, on Terhune in 2008.

But in 2007, poor management decisions destroyed what had been a promising business opportunity. Univera sacked its flagship product, Ageless Xtra, and replaced it with a "fizzy" liquid supplement called Xperia. The new product, quickly developed a reputation for "exploding" in its packaging and arriving in "soaked boxes." During the same time, the company swapped out its computer platform with great fanfare. It turned out to be a disaster. The new internet applications failed and a flood of customer complaints soon overwhelmed the Univera system. Customers, associates, and profits began to disappear.

In the span of just a few months, Univera squandered years of its associates' hard work and goodwill. Terhune, Douglas and Land had had enough. They transferred their remaining Univera business to their spouses, and began building a new network with another company.

Rich Razgaitis Promoted to President, North America for Univera

Univera:

Univera announces the promotion of Rich Razgaitis from Executive Vice President of North America to President, North America, effective immediately. In this role he will continue to report to CEO Stuart Ochiltree. This promotion is a result of the significant growth of Univera business in North America as well as the acknowledgment of Rich’s noteworthy achievements in catalyzing that growth since he joined the company in January 2006. The promotion is also a reflection of an expanded role for the Sales and Marketing Departments with regard to global sales and marketing strategies.

Rich’s promotion was deemed a judicious move by ECONET® and Univera CEO Stuart Ochiltree who states: “Rich has been instrumental in taking Univera’s sales and marketing endeavors to a whole new level. The synergism of Customer Care with Marketing and Sales makes it imperative that one individual oversee the North American operation—and I have every confidence that Rich Razgaitis is capable of the job. Additionally during his tenure as EVP of North America, Rich was responsible for the extraordinary achievement of leading a significant and successful re-branding of the company from the ground up; this, coupled with devising business initiatives, including additional—and vastly improved—sales materials, has given our Company the platform necessary for global growth and sustainability.”

Razgaitis holds a BA in Marketing and an MBA in General management from Anderson University, Indiana. He comes from a diverse business background in which he’s been involved in complete corporate turnarounds. He has led campaigns to position, brand and bring to market product lines for companies ranging from venture capital backed start-ups to such Fortune 500 icons as Johnson and Johnson and Eli Lilly, generating significant revenue growth for each.

With Razgaitis assuming the role of President, Chief Scientific Officer Stephen Cherniske will have more time to continue his valuable research and product formulation work—constantly keeping Univera in the forefront of ethnobotanical discovery, and its application to bringing the best of nature to humankind. This change will also allow Stephen to continue to represent Univera as a sought-after spokesperson—a role he assumed when he joined the company in 1999.

Word of Mouth Sales Featuring Univera LifeSciences

RecordNet.com:

STOCKTON - Jon Hernandez sells a product. But he doesn't work at a retail store. He doesn't have a manager. Doesn't clock in. And doesn't deal with inventory.

Hernandez, a 28-year old from Stockton, is a direct salesman of Ageless (Xtra) nutrient and energy drinks (from Univera LifeSciences).

Direct sales, the process of soliciting a company's products as an independent salesperson, has long been dominated by women. Most people have associated the marketing method with Avon, Mary Kay and Tupperware. That idea is fading away.

Over the past 20 years, outside industry observers predicted direct sales would eventually plummet. The reasons: as more women entered the workplace, fewer were available to hold events such as Tupperware parties; and with the boom in Internet sales, why would anyone be interested in selling face-to-face?

But time has proved those predictions wrong, said Joseph Mariano, executive vice president and secretary of legal counsel with the Direct Selling Association, a national organization.

Sponsor 3 Who Sponsor 3

By popular demand, I am launching a new series of posts based on the Network Marketing income results when a person sponsors 3 people who sponsor 3 people and they all do $100 in volume.

We will show two companies at a time and then we will keep a running tab on the results at the bottom of each post.

I will show all of the math and the comments will be open for any questions, corrections and debate.

On with the show...

3 who sponsor 3 and each do $100

Quixtar with best Nutrilite Product:
$100 worth of Double X = 131 BV
12 x 131 BV = 1572
PV = 540 (6% Bracket)
1572 x 6% = $94.30
1572 / 3 legs = 524
524 x 3% = $15.72
$15.72 x 3 = $47.16 (pay out to 3 legs)
$94.30 - 47.16 = $47.14 Profit

Quixtar has a stairstep breakaway compensation plan.

Univera with Ageless Xtra 2-1 Combo
$100 = 76 PV
76 x 3 = 228 GV (Group Volume - Level 1)
Group Volume on Level 1 is paid at 15%
228 x 15% = $34.20
76 x 9 = 684 GV (Group Volume on Level 2)
684 x 10% = $68.40
$34.20 + $68.40 = $102.60 Profit

Univera has a hybrid unilevel plan plus daily pay and generational depth bonuses.
