The Four Quadrants of Renewal
NOURISH—Get the essential nutrients you need to be healthy.
Your body needs fuel to thrive, and these products help provide that fuel—delivering critical elements for optimal cell health, weight management, hormone balance, and stress relief.*
RESTORE—Develop optimal cell function to prevent health risks.
Each day the body suffers damage from forces that degenerate our vital functions. The compounds in our Restore products help repair that damage and improve how you feel, look, and perform.*
FORTIFY—Defend your body against the ravages of everyday life.
Strengthening your cells is the best way to protect them against the damaging environmental and other forces they constantly face. These products help provide needed protection against the ravages of everyday life.*
VITALIZE—Enhance your energy to feel and do your best. These products fuel the cell, help optimize energy, sharpen focus, and slow cell degeneration—all driving peak cell efficiency and enhancing your performance.*
Univera’s dedication to advancing the science of cell renewal has one purpose—improving your ability to support optimal regeneration of more than 300 billion cells every day—and help you build stronger, healthier cells. Our scientists and formulators have studied cell renewal in minute detail, down to the DNA level. In their studies, they have developed a unique four-quadrant approach to total body health, based on the needs of the cell for optimal renewal.*
Who's Running Univera
Univera’s promise of personal renewal is more than a business. Carrying on the founder’s vision, Univera has assembled a team of talented individuals who share his commitment and passion.
Regan Miles
Chief Executive Officer
“Having been an enthusiastic member of the ECONET community for almost six years, I know intimately about the integrity and solid business foundation behind Univera. I am delighted to be a part of such a great company and look forward to serving our Field for many years to come.”
Regan has devoted his 27-year career exclusively to helping natural health-based companies thrive. At Nature’s Way, Regan spent over a decade at the executive level running all company operations. His next career move was as Senior Vice President of Pharmanex, where he was responsible for global operations including actively designing and managing a production facility in China. Regan then served as President of Integrative Therapeutics where he successfully managed the merger of four independent natural healthcare businesses; he achieved a sustainable business base and culture for the merged company before joining the ECONET in 2001. Enticed by the stellar science and innovation practiced by the ECONET family of companies, Regan moved to Unigen where he has built a strong and successful business. During his tenure at Unigen, the company went from a nonexistent customer base to a thriving business that has experienced greater than 40% annual growth consistently for the past four years.
Rich Razgaitis
President, North America
“I researched the relationship marketing industry and realized that this distribution channel—when effectively managed—is the most efficient way to achieve phenomenal success in a relatively short period. My experience in and knowledge of both the pharmaceutical and nutraceutical industries gives me the opportunity to serve the organization by implementing a concrete plan of action that will take Univera into the homes of families across the globe.”
While at Johnson & Johnson and Eli Lilly, Rich spearheaded sales and marketing strategies for key blockbuster brands. As VP of a Manhattan based start-up, he helped lead the company to profitability while generating growth for dozens of diverse pharmaceutical and over-the-counter products—providing effective strategies to 18 of the world’s top 25 pharmaceutical, biotech, and consumer-goods companies. Rich has also led the new products launch for a private nutritional company while simultaneously building a novel and sustainable distribution channel.
Stephen Cherniske, M.S.
Chief Scientific Officer “Univera products produce benefits you can see and feel. We do not ask that you try our products on blind faith. We simply ask for the opportunity to prove to you that life and health can be improved—to a degree that will surprise and delight you.”
Scientific method and validation has always been central to Univera’s mission. Stephen is the steward of that connection. As a best-selling author and former university instructor in Clinical Nutrition, Stephen has a true gift for communicating the complexities of healing and nutrition in simple, understandable language. Before joining Univera, Stephen consulted for athletes and members of the U.S. Olympic Team, served on the faculty of the American College of Sports Medicine, and directed the nation’s first federally-licensed clinical laboratory specializing in nutrition and immunology.

Chief Global Operations Officer “I look forward to applying my experience and expertise to developing a best-in-class global operations platform for Univera. The company has an amazing opportunity to be a significant player in the health and nutrition revolution that is still in its infancy in the US. Bringing a robust North American brand to global markets will give Univera the ability to meet its goal of becoming a billion-dollar company. I am honored to be chosen for this position, and to be a part of the ECONET family.”
