Healing: Where Faith, Nature and Science Meet
By Paul Bernitt, Board-Certified Doctor of Holistic Health
Dear TriVita Member,
What if the power to heal pain and inflammation isn’t just something you do… but something that is already within you, placed there by God Himself?
What if one of the world’s harshest climates—the Sonoran Desert—held a secret to reawakening that power within to heal?
And what if modern science finally caught up to what our ancestors knew and nature has provided all along?
What if Scripture reveals how nature was created to help stimulate this healing power within?
“He causes the grass to grow for the cattle, and vegetation for the service of man, that he may bring forth food from the earth.”
– Psalm 104:14 (NKJV)
The Bible tells us that God gave the earth’s vegetation not just to nourish us, but to facilitate healing. It’s part of His healing design. Combining that design with belief, healthy choices, and evidence-based tools, we step into a powerful place where faith, nature, and science meet.
Why Do So Many Still Struggle with Inflammation?
Even with a healthy diet or daily walks, many people over 50 still deal with:
- Ongoing joint pain
- Stiffness and swelling
- Low energy or brain fog
- A sense that “something just isn’t right”
It’s not your fault. The real issue may be something doctors don’t talk about enough: chronic inflammation.
While healthy inflammation helps your body fulfill its healing intelligence and repair itself, chronic inflammation lingers too long, burning out your body’s repair systems. It silently drains your energy, opening the door to pain, discomfort, and even disease.
But here’s the good news: You don’t have to stay stuck. Let me explain…
3 Simple Ways to Support Healing Naturally
I’m going to share three things you can start doing today to reduce inflammation and help your body heal—from the inside out.
-
Reconnect with God’s Creation
When what we eat aligns more closely with God’s design—more colorful plants, clean proteins, and less processed food—we reduce what burdens the body.
Try adding:- Leafy greens like spinach and kale
- Anti-inflammatory spices like turmeric and ginger
- Healthy fats from olive oil, nuts, and avocado
Even small changes can lead to big results over time.
-
Move at Least a Little Every Day
Movement doesn’t have to mean intense workouts. A short walk, gentle stretching, or dancing in your kitchen can lower inflammation and improve circulation.
Remember: Movement keeps your joints moving. -
Nourish Your Body with Nopalea
This is where nature and evidence meet. TriVita’s Nopalea® is a science-supported, delicious daily drink made from the nopal cactus fruit, a plant that thrives in the desert and stores powerful nutrients to help your body recover. -
Activate Hope, Faith, and Belief
True healing is more than food, movement, or supplements—it begins in the heart and mind.
When you believe your body was created to heal…
When you have faith that change is possible…
When you hold on to hope, even after years of discomfort…
You create a powerful inner environment that supports healing on every level.
Science shows that positive beliefs and emotional peace reduce stress hormones and boost immune function.1 But long before science affirmed it, Scripture taught:
“For as he thinks in his heart, so is he.” – Proverbs 23:7 (NKJV)
Start each day with gratitude. Pray, breathe deeply, and speak life over your body. When faith leads your actions and hope fills your heart, your body responds in powerful ways.
What the Research Says About Nopalea
In a clinical study, participants who drank 3 ounces of Nopalea daily experienced:1
- Lower levels of CRP (C-reactive protein), a key inflammation marker
- Better joint flexibility
- Less reliance on pain medications
Nopalea doesn’t just treat symptoms—it helps your body restore balance, calm inflammation, and reactivate the healing wisdom God placed inside you.
Healing Doesn’t Happen in a Day—But It Can Begin Today
If you’ve been living with chronic inflammation…
If your energy, mobility, or strength isn’t what it used to be…
If pain and discomfort have been stealing your joy…
It’s time to believe in and awaken the healing power within.
Your journey may not be instant—but it can begin today, with belief, nature, science, and Nopalea.
Let your healing be led by faith, supported by nature, and strengthened by science.
When You Combine Faith with Action… Healing Begins
There’s something powerful about trusting your body’s God-given ability to heal—using what God made in nature to stimulate that process. When you blend faith, natural solutions, and science together, transformation happens.
Your Creator designed your body to heal. You don’t have to settle for “just getting older.” You can move better, feel better, and live with more freedom and less pain.
Here’s What TriVita Members Are Saying
“I have been taking Nopalea for a few years, and it helps alleviate muscle cramps. I recommend Nopalea to all athletes who have muscle problems. Nopalea is the best thing since the Stone Age!” – Reginald C.
“I wasn’t able to walk due to sciatica nerve pain and was trying physical therapy. I ordered Nopalea, have finished 3½ bottles so far, and I am able to walk! I don’t even need Tylenol.” – Linda B.
Are You Ready to Step into Healing?
If so, here’s your invitation: Start with one simple decision—to add Nopalea to your day.
Thank God for the healing botanicals He created, and say a prayer of gratitude for your health. Small steps, done with belief, can lead to significant healing.
