Mannatech sues over five patents

Dallas Business Journal

Mannatech Inc., a local maker of nutritional supplements, has sued two rivals for the alleged infringement of five of its patents.

The Coppell company brought the action in federal district court in Dallas against Fayetteville, Ark.-based Boston Mountain Laboratories Inc, which does business as Natural Health Warehouse, and Wausau, Wis.-based Green Life LLC. Also named as a defendant is a Wausau resident, Xiong Lo, also known as Andrew Lo.

Mannatech’s suit says Green Life is “a mere tool or business conduit” of Lo.

Rawleigh Product’s Manufacturer Announces New Liquid Dietary Supplement Containing Plant Sterols for Cholesterol Reduction

PR Urgent

The manufacturer of Rawleigh Products, Goldshield Elite, is proud to introduce a new liquid dietary supplement, Pulsate Plus, which contains powerful plant sterols for cholesterol reduction.

In clinical trials these all natural compounds were shown to have the potential to reduce both total and LDL cholesterol, therefore lowering the risk of heart disease. Pulsate Plus meets the level of plant sterols required by the FDA in order to be allowed to make these claims.

In addition to plant sterols for cholesterol reduction, Pulsate Plus contains many other beneficial nutrients, including resveratrol, an antioxidant found in plant-derived foods that has been shown to reverse symptoms of aging in clinical tests. These properties include lowering blood sugar, preventing cancer, promoting weight loss and acting as an anti-inflammatory.

Pulsate Plus was formulated to provide a wide range of nutritional benefits. Besides plant sterols and resveratrol, it also includes B vitamins to lower homocysteine levels, soluble fiber to promote both cardiovascular and digestive system health, and amino acid L-Arginine for to improve athletic performance. No other product on the market today provides as many nutrients in a single formula, and no other product can boast having sufficient plant sterols for cholesterol reduction. Moreover, this tasty supplement is missing the added sugar, saturated fat and calories that are often present in energy shakes or sports drinks.

SeaAloe: Ask The Doctor

SeaAloe web site:

The basic definition of nutrition is nourishment to cells, and organisms, that are necessary to supporting life. Nutritional science is the study of the body’s responses to the diet a person eats. In this fast paced world, proper nutrition has become something that many people either ignore or simply disregard as an important necessity in living a fulfilling life.

SeaAloe understands that taking the time to learn about nutrition can be quite cumbersome. Where do I begin? How does my diet affect me? What can I do to change it? SeaAloe has teamed up with Dr. Derrick DeSilva Jr. a practicing Internist at the Raritan Bay Medical Center in Perth Amboy, NJ. He has dedicated his life to giving his patients “Universal Care” and often times focuses on the importance of nutrition. Our partnership with Dr. DeSilva is called "Ask The Doctor".

SeaAloe’s Ask the Doctor program allows you to learn more about how SeaAloe fits into everyone’s lifestyles from a professional, accredited point of view.

Eniva VIBE Nutraceutical Tested at Linus Pauling Micronutrient Research Institute

redOrbit

The Eniva Research Group has released results from aboratory testing by the world-famous Linus Pauling Micronutrient Research Institute at Oregon State University which demonstrated the Eniva Health Supplement VIBE(R) possessed DNA protective anti-mutagenic activity for human cells. This third party testing was performed as part of an ongoing investigative effort to further identify mechanisms by which the Eniva VIBE nutraceutical impacts human health.

Chief Scientific Officer for Eniva Corporation, Dr. Benjamin Baechler, stated, "While these results are tremendously exciting and give us insight into one of the mechanisms of action of the VIBE nutraceutical, we must be careful not to generalize these results beyond the study findings. What we can say for certain is these results further demonstrate the ability of the VIBE nutraceutical to help support healthy and normal functioning of human cells, even under very stressful physiologic situations."

The research design consisted of culturing human cells with and without the VIBE nutraceutical and then exposing these human cells to a well known DNA mutagen-ultraviolet radiation. After a period of time, the human skin cells were then obtained and examined for specific damage to their DNA. Results were compared between the human cells supported by VIBE in their growth medium and those without it. The results demonstrated an extremely statistically significant decrease in DNA damage in those human cells which were supported with the VIBE nutraceutical .
