GNLD's Tre-en-en^® is the direct result of one of the most important hospital and university research projects ever done on fatigue in the human body.  It was started in the late 1940's in Los Angeles, California.  Doctors and scientists from the University of California and what was then Hollywood Presbyterian Hospital invested over eight years into studying the human diet and its relation to “fatigue” and low hormonal function.

The researchers were perplexed when many of those in the study seemed to be eating what appeared to be a good diet.  Testing soon showed that the nutrients in their food were not being fully utilized by their bodies.  The focus of the research
then shifted to the role of “cellular nutrition” -- the active process that allows nutrients to enter the cells of the body, to be used in producing energy and in carrying out the cells' normal function.  They noticed that many of the patients’ cell walls were hard and rigid, hampering the cells’ ability to absorb the nutrients flowing through the blood veins.



Slowly the scientists began to unravel the fact that besides vitamins, minerals, enzymes and amino acids (protein) there was another group of cellular nutrients -- lipids and sterols -- which our bodies are not able to produce on their own.  These essential nutrients make up the walls of every living cell in the human body (approximately 73 trillion cells), and play a vital role in cellular nutrition.  They keep the cell membrane around each cell soft and permeable, ensuring that the cells receive the nutrients required to function efficiently.  Without these essential lipids and sterols, your cell membranes can become impermeable, making it difficult for nutrients to get in and waste to get out.

Lipids and sterols are found in the staple grains used by civilizations throughout the ages - wheat, rice and soy.  However, most of our foods today do not contain these essential nutrients since they easily go rancid.  These oils are typically stripped away during processing, allowing companies to create products with a longer shelf-life in stores.

The project’s scientists went to work developing a daily formula containing the essential, life-sustaining oils from wheat, rice and soy.  Within a short time, amazing changes were noticed in the patients’ test results, including more natural energy and stronger health.  Shortly after completion of the hospital/university research project, GNLD acquired the sole rights to the formula and named it
Tre-en-en^®.

GNLD’s Tre-en-en^® has continued to stay true to the original whole food formula created by the hospital researchers, and it is still manufactured exclusively by GNLD.  Tre-en-en^® provides the benefits of what science has repeatedly established, beginning with that initial study and continuing still today.

With all the ongoing research now of almost 50 years of the importance of grains being needing to be in our diet even the USDA is telling us we should eat at least 3 servings of whole grains every day. If you ate the grains used to make each Tren-en-en capsule it would be 800 calories but since GNLD technology takes out main caloric part that is not nutritionally needed, each capsule is only 9 calories. It is not just GNLD which says you should be taking Tre-en-en grain oil product. Hopefully we can take action upon the facts of a 10 year hospitial study, over 50 years of ongoing supportive scientific research, the USDA scientific advice today of recommending everyone us needs to eat 3 servings of whole grains, and just using common sense in looking at grain being the foundation of man’s food chain for thousands of years.

NOTE: Tre-en-en^® is an integral part in all of GNLD's multi-vitamins from infant to adult.
