Essentials by Revivele Takes the Guesswork out of Women's Supplementation with a System Designed to Support Cognitive Function, Balance Hormones, and Help Prevent Disease MIAMI, Oct. 23, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Revivele, the pharmacist-founded healthcare company empowering women to take control of their own health, has launched Essentials by Revivele, a comprehensive, easy-to-use supplement system tailored specifically to help improve and support women's overall health and longevity, especially as they enter their perimenopausal and post-menopausal years. Continue Reading Essentials by Revivele women's supplements were developed by Dr. Kavita Desai, Pharm. D. Post this Essentials by Revivele is a comprehensive, easy-to-use supplement system tailored to help improve and support women’s overall health and longevity, especially during perimenopausal and post-menopausal years. Essentials by Revivele includes clinically proven ingredients and dosage amounts based on clinical studies linked to better long-term health outcomes and disease prevention. It is also economical and easy to use, as purchasing each ingredient as a separate supplement would require taking nearly 60 pills a day and cost more money overall. Founder Dr. Kavita Desai, Pharm. D., a Doctor of Pharmacy, brain health advocate, and published author of "Lady Parts: Putting Women's Health Back Into Women's Hands," spent over two years formulating 48 science-backed vitamins, minerals, herbs, and functional mushrooms into an efficient and thoughtfully formulated supplement system that supports women's health. Essentials by Revivele is designed to address cognitive function, longevity, hormonal balance, and common symptoms associated with perimenopause and menopause, among other preventative aspects of women's health. This strategic supplement system is also aimed at reducing the risk of chronic diseases like Alzheimer's, which affects twice as many women as men worldwide. Dr. Desai started her career as a hospital-based pharmacist, eventually opening her own integrated medical center and clinical pharmacy focused on pain management and preventative medicine. At that time in Dr. Desai's career, her mother was diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer's. Dr. Desai learned first-hand about the many disease risks women face as they enter the perimenopausal years and how important it is for women to prioritize their own health. She pivoted her career to addressing symptom relief and disease prevention in women, with a special focus on improving brain health, and prevention of Alzheimer's and other chronic diseases. In 2021 she founded Revivele, which helps fill this gap in health care by providing tangible solutions, and is an educational resource for women. "Through running my own integrated medical center, witnessing the decline of my mother's health and hearing from thousands of women in our Revivele online community, I'm aware of the challenges women face in prioritizing themselves and their health," says Dr. Desai. "I created Essentials by Revivele to take the guesswork out of supplementation for women, help them take a proactive approach to their health, and feel their best through their perimenopausal years and beyond." The Essentials by Revivele system is comprised of six daily products carefully formulated to work in harmony and be taken throughout the day.

"I'm proud that Essentials by Revivele greatly surpasses all other products on the market today, which often contain too few key ingredients needed to make a meaningful impact on one's health," said Dr. Kavita Desai, Pharm. D., Founder and CEO, Revivele. "Because a piecemeal approach to supplementation can be confusing, expensive and ineffective, I meticulously formulated this comprehensive supplement system to be easy to follow and offer maximum absorption and efficacy to support a woman's health throughout all the decades of her adult life." At launch, a 30-day supply of Essentials by Revivele is available at Revivele.com, for $399, which equates to approximately $13 per day.

The world’s first multi-arm, multi-stage (MAMS) platform trial for progressive multiple sclerosis (MS), Octopus, has opened a new site at the University Hospital of Wales in Cardiff. The Welsh site is one of up to 30 other sites set to open around the UK. Estimated to affect over 130,000 people in the UK, including 5,600 people in Wales, MS is a disabling neurological disease that disrupts communication between the brain and body. Shelley Elgin, country director at MS Society Cymru, said: "We’re delighted to see the Octopus trial site opening in Cardiff. "There are thousands with progressive forms who have nothing to stop their MS getting worse. We won’t stop until we have treatments that transform the lives of everyone with MS." Launched in April 2023 and funded by the UK’s MS Society, the Octopus trial is led by researchers at the Queen Square MS Centre and MRC Clinical Trials Unit at University College London (UCL). Designed to allow multiple drugs to be tested at the same time using a single control group, the trial uses MRI scans to give an early indication as to whether a drug may or may not be effective before disability effects set in. Currently, the trial is testing two drugs, metformin, which is approved for diabetes in the UK, and alpha lipoic acid, which is approved for neuropathy – a type of nerve damage – in Germany. Both drugs have shown potential to help protect nerves. Octopus, which aims to enrol a minimum of 1,200 people with progressive MS across the next six years, has also recruited its first participant to the new site in Cardiff. Dr Emma Tallantyre, Octopus recruitment lead and principal investigator at the University Hospital of Wales, said: "Octopus is a landmark trial, one of the first of its kind in MS... This is such an exciting opportunity for people… who currently have no or limited treatment options to have something that could be disease modifying.” Anyone in the UK living with primary or secondary progressive MS can register their interest through the UK MS Register.
