Origin Story

In 1999, Mark Mueller (photo right) founded Botanic Oil Innovations with a mission: to create natural antioxidant supplements, skin care and medical products that will help people all over the world live longer, healthier lives. Mark took a cold-press process that was initially being used in other applications and applied the same technology to extract natural oils from fruit and plant seeds. The result was super-potent antioxidant oils that were also high in Omega 3 and Omega 6 essential fatty acids. After much research and experimentation, Mark believed his team had created a natural antioxidant supplement with powerful health benefits. However, it wasn't until he found an equally innovative figure, Dr. Arnold Leonard (photo left), that he became aware of the full potential of the oils.

Dr. Leonard is a respected traditional physician who has made significant contributions to the advancement of modern medicine throughout his career. For more than 20 years, he served as Professor of Surgery at the University of Minnesota medical school. Ten years ago, he shifted his focus from pediatric surgery to cancer research and has made remarkable developments in the field.

When Dr. Leonard learned about the supposed health benefits of Mark's natural antioxidant supplement, the traditional physician inside him was skeptical. As fate would have it, the pioneering researcher within him urged him to be open-minded. He received samples of Immuno-Viva® Core from Mark and began conducting laboratory studies. The results were astounding. Being a true skeptic, Dr. Leonard raised an eyebrow and repeated the experiment to see if it was an anomaly. The results were consistent.

Over time, Dr. Leonard and his colleague Dr. Dan Saltzman, the chief of pediatric surgery at the University of Minnesota medical school, developed an extensive body of research on Immuno-Viva's natural antioxidant supplement, and their skepticism was overcome. Immuno-Viva Core was proving to be a natural product with remarkable capabilities. Through their studies, the doctors found Immuno-Viva Core capable of building the immune system, supporting heart health, combating free radicals, and supporting inflammatory function. *

Encouraged by these findings, Drs. Leonard and Saltzman are eager to introduce others to the powerful capabilities of Immuno-Viva and to provide people with better quality of life. Extensive research is still being conducted to understand the full potential of Immuno-Viva's natural antioxidant supplement, Core. And we have developed an entire line of powerful antioxidant products that have been formulated to address today's most prevalent health concerns.
