Scientific Excellence Award 2010
American River Nutrition’s DeltaGOLD® Tocotrienol to Receive 2010 SupplySide® West Scientific Excellence Award
American River Nutrition, Inc. is proud to announce that it will be a recipient of the 2010 SupplySide® West Scientific Excellence Award for its patented DeltaGOLD® product line. Submissions for the award were evaluated based on science/research methods, scientific breakthrough, and innovation and appeal for the manufacturing community. The company will be presented with the award on Friday, Oct. 22 at 2pm in the Virgo Publishing booth, #22061. Along with this award, the innovative science-based company is pleased to announce its achievement of self-affirmed Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) status in July 2010.
Joining American River Nutrition at SupplySide® West 2010 will be Dr. Duane Graveline, a former NASA astronaut and medical doctor who will be signing autographs for his book, Statin Damage Crisis. In his book, Dr. Graveline suggests several alternatives to statin therapies, one of them being the DeltaGOLD® annatto tocotrienols he strongly supports.
Introduced in 2003, DeltaGOLD® is a tocotrienol ingredient derived from the annatto plant, and is composed of 90 percent delta-tocotrienol and 10 percent gamma-tocotrienol. Uniquely, DeltaGOLD® is naturally tocopherol-free, an important feature in light of the discovery that alpha-tocopherol interferes with tocotrienol benefits. Dr. Barrie Tan, Ph.D., president of American River Nutrition, remarks that receipt of the award bears tremendous significance for the company, which has been prioritizing in vitamin E education of industry members, health professionals, and consumers alike. Dr. Tan believes that tocotrienol is an emergent vitamin, dubbed by experts in the field as “The Vitamin E Beyond Tocopherol” or “The 21st Century Vitamin E.”
