-(Marketwire - March 21, 2011) - Health Enhancement Products, Inc. (OTCBB: HEPI) today outlined recent developments within the company in an effort to keep shareholders informed of its progress.
HEPI has been notified by its exclusive distributor, Xooma, that it has re-branded HEPI's ProAlgaZyme® product as "Kardiaxyme." (Xooma assumed Zus' rights and obligations under the distribution agreement between HEPI and Zus).Xooma plans to officially launch the newly branded product with its impressive new packaging within the next 45 days. Individuals who wish to purchase the product now can do so by contacting Xooma at www.kardiaxyme.com.Xooma has already completed a successful pre-launch of the Kardiaxyme product to a select group of distributors. Based on the results of this pre-launch, Xooma has requested that HEPI expand its production to a level that is more than twenty times HEPI's previous capacity. The company is hopeful that the expected increase in orders from Xooma will result in much improved operating cash flows.
HEPI recently announced the leasing of a new facility which it intends to use for its headquarters and production space. HEPI's objectives in seeking new space were threefold.First, the company needed a space that it could more easily convert into a GMP (good manufacturing practice) compliant facility.Secondly, the company was seeking a more efficient manufacturing space that could help it overcome production challenges.Thirdly, there was a desire to reduce operating expenses, if possible.The company believes that the new space meets all of the above objectives.
HEPI's Research and Development efforts have been directed toward actively pursuing an analysis of PAZ™ to try and identify the "class of compounds," and the "active ingredient," to identify the single molecule or molecules, if possible, responsible for the potential cholesterol benefits the company's testing has identified.Substantial time, money, and effort have been expended in this regard.The company believes that it is making substantial progress towards achieving these hoped for results, but more investigation is needed. The company plans to update shareholders as the identification process is completed.
John Gorman, HEPI Executive Vice President of Operations, commented, "We are pleased that we now have a facility that with appropriate improvements can accommodate production of our product on a mass scale. Xooma will be an excellent marketing partner as they now have first-hand experience when discussing our product." Mr. Gorman concluded, "Moving into our new facility will allow us to more fully automate everything from growing, harvesting, filtering and bottling in a straight line production. It marks another important milestone in allowing us to finally begin the process of monetizing our valuable asset."
