CORAL SPRINGS, FL--(Marketwired - June 23, 2015) - Nutra Pharma Corporation (OTC: NPHC), a biotechnology company marketing Nyloxin® and Pet Pain-Away in the over-the-counter (OTC) pain management market, and which is also developing treatments for Multiple Sclerosis (MS), Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), Adrenomyeloneuropathy (AMN) and Pain, announced today that they have completed a series of projects to update and expand the facilities that house the Asian cobras utilized for the production of Nyloxin®. They have also announced the addition of 100 snakes to the existing milking line to increase venom production for the upcoming international orders from India and China.
“We are at an amazing inflection point for the Company,” commented Rik J. Deitsch, Chairman and CEO of Nutra Pharma Corporation. “Over the past few months, we have dramatically reduced costs, paid down debt and recapitalized the share structure of the Company,” he continued. “Now we need to focus on increasing sales for our OTC products, Nyloxin and Pet Pain-Away. This also requires us to scale up our raw material supplies and production facilities. The growth-limiting material for Nutra Pharma is cobra venom, the active ingredient in our OTC products. We need to make sure that we have an adequate supply of validated material to meet our future production needs. With the recently announced expansion into India and China, we realize that we will need to grow exponentially to meet these expected product orders in the coming months. The expansion of the reptile facilities ensures that we can grow apace with the increasing orders,” he concluded.
