NuLiv Science to Discuss Promising Solutions at Natural Products Expo Asia -- Seeking Partners and Agents for New Products
HONG KONG--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec. 1, 2003-- The U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) reports that 50% of women and 25% of men over the age of 50 will suffer an osteoporosis-related bone fracture in their lifetime. Between 10-15% of the world's population suffers from nasal allergies to pollen or other allergens. Natural solutions to these persistent health problems are the topic of a special seminar, hosted by NuLiv Science, at the upcoming Natural Products Expo Asia event December 3-5, 2003 at the Hong Kong Convention & Exhibition Centre. There is no cure for osteoporosis and the treatments currently available are costly and ineffective and have undesirable side effects including increased incidence of some cancers and patient discomfort. "We've developed a natural treatment for osteoporosis using a phyto-estrogen formula extracted from two well-known herbs," said Dr. Feng-Huei Lin, Scientific Advisor to NuLiv and Director of the Biomedical Engineering Department of the National Taiwan University (NTU) Hospital. "Animal studies on our BoneRenew(TM) formula have shown significant increases in both Bone Mineral Density and Bone Ash Weight," Dr. Lin added.
NuLiv Science is using essential oils extracted from TCM in its proprietary Breaze(TM) natural inhaler/diffuser products, specially designed for nasal allergy sufferers. "The essential oils we've extracted were found to be stronger immune suppressants than corticoid and antihistamine agents in both in-vitro and in-vivo studies at our NDMC laboratory," said Dr. Ted Lin, Deputy Director of NuLiv's NDMC-Taipei Laboratory.
NuLiv's free seminar from 3:00-4:00 PM on Wednesday, December 3, 2003 is designed for scientists, product formulators, entrepreneurs, distributors, agents and retailers. Attendance is complimentary for all people who register online to attend Natural Products Expo Asia 2003 at www.naturalproductsasia.com.
