They say necessity is the mother of invention. So it was several years ago when Dr. Aaron Tabor decided to help his mom by redefining the "change of life."

"At 50 I was a wreck!" Suzanne explains. "Fifty is a 'good number' unless it represents the number of hot flashes you're having each night, the number of steps it takes you to wear out, or the dress size you fear may be yours. This is not much of an exaggeration for the condition I felt my life was in. I thought after I raised the kids I would be kicking up my heels. I needed some kind of relief. Revival gave me my life back. Now I am able to live the joy with Revival Soy."

Like most women her age, Suzanne Tabor experienced the common discomforts of menopause including hot flashes and night sweats. Completely frustrated, Suzanne called her son Aaron (Dr. Tabor) who, at the time, was a medical student at a leading medical university. Dr. Tabor began using his resources to search for a natural solution to help his mom. He investigated numerous medical studies which indicated significantly lower rates of menopausal hot flashes among Asian women when compared to women in the US. Dr. Tabor learned that soy has many benefits, not only for women, but also for men. While some Asians may consume up to 6 servings of soy foods a day, the American diet contains almost no soy protein or soy isoflavones.

Immediately, Suzanne began trying various forms of soy from her local grocery and health food stores, but like most Americans, she found it too hard to consume enough soy, and found its chalky taste and gritty texture unbearable. So, Dr. Tabor created Revival to rescue her from a "midlife meltdown." Using his medical knowledge and Suzanne's discriminating taste buds, Dr. Tabor spent nearly two years perfecting the first naturally-concentrated Revival Soy product () with about the same amount of soy isoflavones found in 6 cups of a typical soymilk. Within days of use, his mom began feeling better. Suzanne recalls, "I suddenly had more energy without feeling hungry and my menopausal discomforts nearly vanished in just 4 weeks. I now have the best skin, hair, and nail appearance of my life and a slim waistline that I love."*

*Individual results vary. Typical hot flash reduction was nearly 40% in just 12 weeks in a clinical study funded in part by Physicians Laboratories.
