For Immediate Release:
Pioneering Supplements Manufacturer Enzymatic Therapy® Joins Better Living Brands™ Alliance
Company Brings 30 Year History of Market Firsts and Supplements Industry Innovation to World-Class Heath and Wellness Consortium
LOS ANGELES – (November 12, 2008) – Better Living Brands Alliance, a consortium
of world-class manufacturing, marketing and distribution companies delivering the best
in organic and health and wellness products to consumers, announced today that
Enzymatic Therapy, Inc. (ETI), a leading developer and marketer of health supplements,
has joined the Alliance as its newest member. One of North America’s largest
manufacturers and distributors of dietary supplements and natural medicines, ETI is
unique in the industry as one of the few supplements makers to operate and manufacture
its products in an FDA registered drug facility that fulfills the FDA’s Good
Manufacturing Practice (GMP) Regulations. The company is also one of the only
supplement makers to be certified as an organic processor.
A pioneer of science-based supplement development with a rigorous commitment to
pharmaceutical-grade standards, ETI’s manufacturing expertise complements Better
Living Brands’ strategy of delivering a full range of better-for-you organic and health and
wellness products to mainstream audiences through its alliance brands: Organics™ and
Eating Right™. In addition to its manufacturing controls, ETI has been responsible for a
number of industry firsts including the introduction of glucosamine sulfate to the
supplements market and the adoption of advanced testing methods such as Atomic
Absorption Spectroscopy (AA), and other chromatographic techniques to ensure the
purity of the raw materials used to produce its products.
“Enzymatic has a distinguished track record of innovation in the natural health and
supplements arena and as a new Alliance member enhances our ability to satisfy the fast-
growing consumer demand for organic and wellness products,” said James D. White,
leader of the Better Living Brands Alliance and president of Lucerne Foods, a Better
Living Brands alliance company. “Both O Organics and Eating Right are among the
largest and fastest growing brands in their categories and the addition of Enzymatic to our
Alliance allows us to offer an even more comprehensive solution to retailers looking to
deliver the organic and health and wellness lifestyle solution their shoppers are seeking.”
As an Alliance member, ETI enables Better Living Brands to extend its multi-category
lifestyle offerings into the supplements market, delivering high quality and affordable
products to consumers nationwide. The first step was the launch last month of the O
Organics Supplements line, the mainstream grocery industry’s most comprehensive line
of USDA certified organic supplements. Produced in ETI’s certified organic facility, the
raw materials used to make O Organics supplements are sourced from only the most high
quality producers and carefully manufactured to retain their nutritional value. In order to
best preserve these health benefits, ETI developed two patent-pending processes to
convert the delicate organic materials in the Supplements line from their raw state to
tablet form.
Randy J. Rose, President and CEO of Enzymatic Therapy, Inc. noted, “We are delighted
to join the Better Living Brand Alliance. The high integrity of each of the Alliance
members, and the collective vision focused on elevating the access to high quality and
health enhancing products, squares perfectly with our company’s mission to provide
‘what BETTER feels like!’ to consumers everywhere.”
