Supplements formulated to optimize your health! See them all on our Revive MD page on PricePlow.
For nearly a year, we’ve been covering the innovative products of Revive MD, an industry-pioneering health-driven supplement brand run by Dr. Domenic Iacovone and elite fitness trainer Matt Jansen. We jumped right into their intense, full-throttled formulas like Turmeric+ and dove into specifically-targeted, comprehensive formulas like Lipid and Prostate.
Once it became clear that Team Revive was onto something big, the brand’s formulation philosophy was copied by several others in the sports nutrition industry — and that’s good news, because they’re driving better health choices in a time when we desperately need them.
But what if you’re interested in Revive MD’s supplements, but don’t need something as specific as Prostate? Where do you start?
The Revive MD Starter Pack: Where you can begin your revival
New to the incredible supplements at Revive MD and not sure where to start? They’ve got it all covered for you in this beginner’s stack!
For those without a specific organ to support but are still interested in testing the power of Revive MD, the company offers a Beginner Experience, which is a stack of three powerful supplements that everyone can enjoy:
- Immune Multi – A complete multivitamin formulated to jump-start cellular energy production, supporting physical energy.
- Calm+ – A cortisol-management formula to help manage stress levels and obtain better productivity, mental clarity, mood, and dietary success.
- Daily Greens – An impressive greens powder with several superfood ingredients made to enhance nutrient (and phytonutrient) intake.
The goal is to provide a healthy base for any kind of athlete and nearly any kind of dieter that will have you feeling better than before. After that, you can consider targeting organ-specific supplements from Revive (or the performance-specific ones from sibling brand RAW Nutrition).

It’s a sign of the times when one of the smartest companies in the industry is suggesting a supplement named Calm to basically all new customers, but that’s the world that Revive MD was founded in. Despite the never-ending societal pressure, division, doom, hyperinflation, etc… we still need to get our jobs done and enjoy our lives. So rather than starting with the multivitamin, let’s briefly dig into Calm+:
-
Revive MD Calm+: Cortisol Management
Normally, we’d start the stack with the multivitamin… but Revive MD Calm+ is too important to overshadow!
Cortisol is known as the “stress hormone”, but it’s not always a bad thing. Classified as a glucocorticoid steroid and secreted from the adrenal glands, cortisol has numerous roles in the body.[1] On top of regulating blood pressure and blood sugar, it helps our bodies respond to stressful and traumatic events – whether they’re mentally or physically induced. We want a good cortisol response, especially when we need it.
The issue is chronically elevated cortisol levels – a condition too many of us are in lately. When cortisol is stuck in the “high” position, it can be very difficult to build muscle, burn fat, or even make sound decisions![1]
Stay calm with Calm+
It’s obviously important to eliminate it whenever possible – get better sleep, exercise, stop “doomscrolling” on social media, avoid hazardous relationships, and avoid debt whenever possible. But while we’re getting to such a point of enlightenment, Revive MD has a supplement that can help with the biochemical processes related to cortisol elevation – Calm+.
Key ingredients to help battle chronic cortisol elevations:
This is a partial list of some of the impressive additions in CALM+:
-
Inositol
The full Revive MD Calm Ingredients label – this article only covers some of the key ingredients
Inositol is a type of sugar molecule involved in cellular signaling, especially in the brain. Very high doses have been shown to be anxiolytic and to help reduce panic response.[2,3]
-
Taurine
A sulfur-containing organic acid that we often praise for its endurance-boosting effects, taurine is also an anxiolytic compound[4] that’s heavily involved in GABAergic signaling.[5-7]
-
L-Theanine
L-Theanine is a relaxation-boosting ingredient found in green tea.[8-10] It pairs very well with caffeine, “taking the edge off” and increasing the ability to focus.[11,12]
-
GABA
GABA is known as our “downer neurotransmitter” and its supplementation could promote relaxation, decreases beta waves (the waking consciousness and reasoning waves), and increases the deep relaxation alpha waves.[13] Additionally, GABA can decrease stress and pain response and improve learning, memory, and overall brain function by doing so.[14,15]
-
5-HTP
Formally known as 5-Hydroxytryptophan, 5-HTP is produced from the amino acid L-tryptophan and gets broken down into serotonin. It makes for a great mood booster[16] that also pairs well with GABA for better sleep.[17]
The Tryptophan 5-HTP Serotonin Pathway. Don’t have enough tryptophan around because of weak diet? Get more here.. or consider supplementing 5-HTP and B-6 may help

Supporting Vitamins and Minerals
Revive MD also includes key B vitamins and minerals like zinc and magnesium to maintain proper cell function. We cover these two minerals in great detail in our articles on RAW Sleep and Revive MD Zinc.
We’re just getting started with the stack, but it can also be bought separately:

CALM+ is a great way to begin the stack – now let’s add in a spectrum of nutrients and more:

Revive MD Immune Multi: More than a Multivitamin
We do our best to eat right, which should always include high-protein, nutrient-dense foods. But in today’s environment of processed foods and over-farmed agriculture, nutrient density is dropping.[18-23] Revive MD comes in with Immune Multi to round out your micronutrient needs.
Plenty of vitamins, high quality minerals, but the real differentiator in Immune Multi are the bonus ingredients on the bottom-right side, including the large dose of NAC!
Vitamins, Chelated Minerals, and More
While we can’t get into every ingredient, Immune Multi brings more than just the assortment of vitamins and minerals we see in other multis. On top of the high-bioavailability minerals used, there are a few key “extras” worth zeroing in on:
-
N-Acetyl Cysteine
A full 600 milligram dose of glutathione-precursor NAC, which has gained recent attention due to its ability to help fight inflammatory lung issues,[24,25] amongst its numerous other benefits.[26]
Revive MD’s Immune Multi does not levitate, but you may feel a bit more spring in your step when using it
Our take: this inclusion alone makes Immune Multi better than 99.9% of the other multivitamins out there that don’t contain it.
-
Acetyl L-Carnitine Hydrochloride
L-Carnitine is incredibly popular for weight loss, since it improves the fat oxidation process by transporting fatty acids to the cells’ powerhouses, the mitochondria.[27] This is especially if deficient (generally in dieters who don’t eat much red meat or are elderly or overtraining).[28-34] We love the acetyl version here, known as ALCAR, because it can cross the blood-brain barrier and should provide some cognitive benefits as well.[27,35-37]
-
Alpha Lipoic Acid
Covered in detail in our article on Revive MD’s Glucose supplement, alpha lipoic acid (ALA) supports lower blood glucose and hemoglobin-A1c levels.[38] Because of this and its unique mechanisms, it can also help fight neuropathy.[39]
-
Sulforaphane from HiActives Organic Broccoli Sprout Powder
A uniquely potent antioxidant that has extraordinary potential in the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory space,[40] but unfortunately isn’t often sold into sports nutrition supplements that we usually deal with. Revive changes that.
Several of these ingredients are simply unseen in multivitamins, but everyone can benefit from them. There’s far more to it as well, as you can see in the label above.

Revive MD Daily Greens: Get your phytonutrients in
Get in enough micronutrients with the help of Revive MD Daily Greens!
We’ve previously covered Daily Greens in an aptly-titled article, Revive MD Daily Greens: A Nutrient Powerhouse. Important to note that there are both capsules and powder available, but we’re focusing mostly on the newer powder below.
While the vitamins, minerals, and extras in Immune Multi are a great foundation, there are so many other phytonutrients and micronutrients that can improve health – many of them that we don’t get in a standard (or even healthy) Western diet.
Daily Greens for daily excellence
In its powder form, Daily Greens allows for larger doses than we’ll see in the above two supplements, and a bit more power than the capsule doses (which may still be for sale in the widget below if you’re interested).
Fully transparent labels are hard to come-by for greens powders!
The powder enables us to get gut-promoting fiber like inulin for starters,[41] but also ground flaxseed and high omega-3 ground chia.
Then come a ton of organic greens — 10 in total, many of which you’re not getting in through your daily diet. This includes wheatgrass, spirulina, alfalfa, barley grass, spinach, fermented kale, chlorella, broccoli sprouts, and kelp. Many of these contain high amounts of chlorophyll, known as “green blood” as it is so important to plant life and structurally very similar to hemoglobin.
It’s simply a nutrient powerhouse, and it’s not easy to get these in pill form, so Revive MD formulates it into flavored powders.
“Hidden” in the middle of this massive open formula is also a 200 milligram dose of turmeric, bringing an incredible array of anti-inflammatory properties that work great for both athletes and sedentary individuals.
To top it off, one area not yet covered in this stack is probiotics, and those are involved in a solid dose here in Daily Greens as well.

A starter stack for the ages
Revive MD has put together an incredible starter stack to try.
Ultimately, Revive MD’s Starter Stack provides us with an incredible launching pad for good health – cognitive boosters, vitamins, minerals, phytonutrients, fiber, prebiotics, probiotics, antioxidants, amino acids, and so much more. This article truly only scratched the surface of these three supplements.
We’re confident this will have you feeling better – but the big question is what specifically was your body needing? That’s tough to figure out, but once you get onto a stack like this and level up, you generally don’t want to remove anything to find out.
If you’re working to get back on the path to true health, this is a great first step and you can consider your supplemental bases covered here. We of course always first recommend a high-protein diet of whole foods and as little processed food as possible — we especially encourage the elimination of the inflammatory omega-6 fatty acids from “vegetable oils” (also known as seed oils) and a return to pastured animal fats.
Give it a month, and then start looking at any of Revive MD’s organ-specific supplements or RAW Nutrition’s performance supplements.
