Recent reports that hackers stole personal information affecting as many as 15 million T-Mobile wireless customers in the US—including Social Security numbers, home addresses, birthdates and other personal information—spotlights the fact there is no such thing as ironclad data security.

The risk of identity theft is a reality for the millions of Americans whose personal data is stored on public and private servers. Identity theft last year accounted for financial losses of $25 billion in the United States alone.

“Everyone’s talking about data security these days, but the truth is no data system is immune to security breaches or hackers, placing every American at risk of identity theft,” said Jeff Bell, CEO

The study disputes an assertion that internal consumption, where direct selling consultants purchase products or services for their own use, is illegitimate or sufficient to indicate a pyramid scheme.

“Everyone agrees that pyramid schemes should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law,” said Joseph N. Mariano, DSA President. “However, consumers lose when scarlet letters are placed on legitimate companies. The issue is not whether schemes should be put out of business, but how regulators and the courts determine what constitutes unlawful behavior. The NERA study calls into question a flawed conclusion that a key indicator of a scheme exists when direct

TriVita Launches Omega3 Prime

by Nicole Dunkley • October 21, 2015 • 0 Comments

TriVita Inc., a North American nutraceutical firm based in Scottsdale, AZ, has reformulated their omega-3 supplement as “Omega3 Prime” — an excellent source of these vital fatty acids.
Omega-3 fatty acids are essential for human health, but the body can’t make them. We need to get these vital nutrients through the foods we eat or from supplements. Unfortunately, most Americans don’t get the recommended amount of omega-3 fatty acids, found in certain fish, nuts and seeds, from their diet.
“Omega-3 fatty acids are essential for foundational health, with major benefits for the heart, joints, and brain,” explained TriVita founder Michael Ellison. “We are excited to announce this new formulation that provides even more of these vital nutrients to support overall health.” TriVita’s Omega3 Prime provides 1,000 mg of omega-3, including 670 mg of EPA
