NORCROSS, Ga., June 24, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Hi-Tech Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a specialty pharmaceutical and dietary supplement company, today announced plans to launch a highly purified NMN+NR product following the recent successful completion of a pilot scale launch last year. β-Nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) is a derivative of the B-vitamin niacin, which is believed to significantly improve health and wellness. NMN is a natural compound found in the human body and is constantly being metabolized. It is also found in trace amounts in certain foods. NMN serves as a precursor to NAD+, which is a coenzyme found in all living cells, and is required for the body's core biological processes, including the human body's energy production, metabolism, and gene expression. Nicotinamide Riboside (NR) is a naturally occurring molecule found in all cells and a natural building block for NAD⁺ production. NR is designed to elevate NAD⁺ levels, maintain cellular function, and enhance vitality and longevity.† Together, this combination being designed by Hi-Tech highlights that a multi-target strategy for NAD⁺ restoration such as the use of a precursor in combination with inhibitors and/or activators acting at other key points in the NAD⁺ network may be the optimum approach to NAD⁺ restoration." NMN+NR are precursors for NAD⁺, which plays a key role in many vital processes, including:Energy production† DNA repair† Regulation of genes† Cellular health and vitality† Immune function† Regulation of the sleep-wake cycle† Fortunately, NAD+ levels, which naturally decline with age, can be replenished by with high quality NMN+NR supplements. Potential benefits of restoring NAD+ levels include slowing the adverse impacts of aging, support for an improved cardiovascular function, and aiding wellness, a healthy weight management regimen and endurance. Cyclosome ® Delivery Standard NMN and NR have limited absorption due to extensive metabolism and low stability.† To address this issue, Hi-Tech uses an advanced liposomal+cyclodextrin delivery system (Cyclosome ®) designed to improve the bioavailability, created for better absorption, and a slower release into the bloodstream.† Jared Wheat, Hi-Tech's CEO, commented, "We are gearing up to launch a highly purified NMN+NR product given the success of our recent pilot launch and high market demand. We expect to leverage Hi-Tech Pharma's proven track record of providing superior ingredients to ensure that customers are buying a high-quality, pure NMN+NR supplement whenever they see our brand. We see NMN+NR as a natural fit for our comprehensive healthcare category, which is an ideal non-medicine therapy; and a new star for our portfolio, which already boasts dozens of products with our proprietary Cyclosome ® delivery system, giving us added revenue stability, visibility and the product pipeline needed to support the Company's continued growth."

NORCROSS, Ga., Jan. 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Ash® 5% Ashwagandha is a branded, full spectrum extract, with the highest concentration of all major root-only extracts available on the market today! Ash® 5% total Withanolides by HPLC is the "Gold Standard" in the market. Ash® may help reduce stress, anxiety, and cortisol levels. Ash® acts as an adaptogen, it helps us to better handle stress by reducing anxiety, lowering blood sugar levels, strength, and stamina. Ash® may also enhance memory and cognitive function. Thanks to its ability to support both the mind and the body, ashwagandha is one of Ayruveda's most prized rejuvenating herbs. Ash® is an extract developed in-house by Hi-Tech Pharmaceuticals and had custom produced for our company. First and foremost, Hi-Tech Ash® has a very high level of withanolides on the market at 5% by HPLC. Hi-Tech Ash® is a 15x concentrated extract, bringing the most potent levels of calming bioactive constituents in the market. Many products have to be purchased by manufacturers and then shipped through customs, which delays production. Hi-Tech stocks over 10,000KG in our Georgia warehouse and also stocks several tons at Ingredients Online. This meteoric rise in popularity isn't merely a result of global trends gravitating toward holistic health; it is significantly attributed to the effectiveness of this amazing herb! Unlike some other herbs that are sold, ashwagandha is not seasonable, as we all experience it in today's hectic world. Hi-Tech expects double-digit growth in the market for Ash® Ashwagandha extract due to our technological advances that enable Ash® to be sold at significantly lower prices than other branded ashwaganda extracts. Hi-Tech expects this growth to remain constant for the next five years as many American's still do not realize the value of Ashwagandha. But what positions Ash® at the forefront of ashwagandha's global surge? The answer lies in Hi-Tech's dedicated approach to research and marketing. At the forerunner of scientific inquiry, Ash® distinguishes itself with a fervent commitment to unravel the true potential of ashwagandha. This holistic approach to both research and marketing has essentially allowed Ash® to carve out a unique category, with Hi-Tech amongst the leaders in Ashwagandha production, and their efforts have not only propagated the benefits of Ashwagandha but have created an unmistakable buzz around it. The rise of Ashwagandha's popularity has led many companies to venture into producing inferior ashwagandha extracts. These extracts can deviate significantly from time-tested traditional formulations. The most egregious are companies selling Ashwagandha by a prehistoric test method called gravimetric instead of using HPLC methodology. Other suppliers attempt to boost sales by highlighting supposed 'advantages.' These proclaimed benefits are sometimes marketing embellishments that dilute the genuine essence of what the industry aims to provide to its consumers. Below are some common claims which need careful examination on whether they are indeed valid: Low dosage: Many companies, under the guise of innovation, are introducing low-dosage extracts with elevated withanolide content. While withanolides are indeed one of the crucial bioactive components found in the root, it is vital to recognize that they are just one component of a whole spectrum of bioactives in Ashwagandha. Inflating the percentage of withanolides to artificially high levels in the extract can fundamentally disrupt the natural ratio of beneficial compounds present in the herb. Adulteration with leaves: Because leaves are cheaper and more easily available than the roots, many manufacturers add leaves to their Ashwagandha extracts. It is important to recognize that leaf withanolides differ from root withanolides. This can lead to an end-product inconsistent with the traditionally consumed Ashwagandha root. Perhaps for some of these many concerns, the Government of India recently released anadvisory advocating for the utilization of ashwagandha roots alone and advising manufacturers to refrain from using ashwagandha leaves. Such inferior products and misleading claims may often serve to distract from the fundamental drivers of value to end consumers, which is a product with a long history that is known to be safe, efficacious, clinically tested and trusted. Ash® has dedicated over a decade to developing its extract. It is to be expected that a growing category like Ashwagandha will bring in new entrants that seek to capitalize on the increasing demand for consumers. Brand managers and product managers would be well-advised to be cautious with a healthy skepticism when evaluating the claims of many Indian ingredient suppliers. Ash® is at the cutting-edge of Ashwagandha research and Hi-Tech is a large enough ingredient supplier that it will keep sufficient amounts of inventory to meet consumer demands for this amazing herb.

NORCROSS, Ga., Jan. 2, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Hi-Tech Pharmaceuticals, a leading manufacturer of cutting-edge dietary supplements and weight management supplements, is proud to announce the launch of its latest product, SLIMAGLUTIDE®. This groundbreaking supplement provides a natural and effective solution for blood sugar metabolism support and healthy weight management.* Slimaglutide® is a groundbreaking weight management supplement utilizing 10 Glucagon-like Peptide-1 (GLP-1) Receptor agonist and secretagogues to provide a natural and effective solution for blood sugar metabolism support, healthy weight management and at an affordable cost.* Hi-Tech's Research and Development Team spent over a year researching the active ingredients and compounds that make Slimaglutide®. This Novel and Revolutionary weight management aid will turn the Diet Industry on its head! Hi-Tech Pharmaceuticals is a leader in phellodendron and berberine research with its Nexrutine® series of berberine extracts, which have over two decades of studies and real world results in many of Hi-Tech's branded products. Slimaglutide® utilizes a 97% pure Nexrutine®XS extract naturally derived from phellodendron bark. Hi-Tech launch of Slimaglutide® benefits from Hi-Tech being the forefront of Berberine research with its Nexrutine product. The berberine utilized in Slimaglutide® utilized a Berberine Pharmacokinetic study that showed improved berberine bioavailability (AUC) by over 10 times on molar basis and with observed dose linearity. Our berberine increased retention time from about 30-45 minutes to over 10 hours! The uniqueness of Nexrutine XS® Berberine derives directly from one of berberine's main limits: bioavailability. The raw extract has extremely poor oral bioavailability and bioabsorption profile. Nexrutine XS® Berberine groundbreaking supplement harnesses the power of berberine to provide a natural and effective solution for blood sugar metabolism support and healthy weight management. Slimaglutide® effectively support metabolic health, favorably modulating insulin response; improving the blood sugar profile, leveling both blood glycemic and insulin; having a positive effect on body composition and inducing the redistribution of adipose tissue. Hi-Tech's utilizes our proprietary Cyclosome®, a special structure of sunflower lecithin and cyclodextrin that ensures your body can absorb the plant extracts as they pass through your body. For Slimaglutide® we also incorporate sodium caprate (C10, a medium-chain triglyceride) to promote optimal absorption and maintenance of gastrointestinal comfort during berberine supplementation. As a society, our expanding waistlines have only increased our pre-existing concerns regarding our blood sugar and cholesterol levels. Slimaglutide® provides an effective, natural means of supporting our efforts toward more balanced blood sugar and weight management. The second pathway Hi-Tech researchers found effective compounds are from glucose-dependent Insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP). Hi-Tech developed a proprietary extract called TwinCretin® from the Fagonia Cretia, which stimulated both GLP-1 and GIP secretion, increased cellular hormone content, and upregulated gene expression of proglucagon, GIP and prohormone convertase. The release of GLP-1 and related effects delay gastric emptying and bowel motility, and in addition, exerts pressure on the hypothalamus to alter satiety; thereby, reducing appetite and assisting in weight management. Slimaglutide® is the only omni-faceted nutraceutical on the market to attack both GLP-1 and GIP secretion and is extremely potent when it comes to weight management. "Hi-Tech is often first to market with cutting-edge products, and Slimaglutide® may be our crown jewel," said Jared Wheat, President and CEO of Hi-Tech. "With the launch of Slimaglutide®, consumers can experience the remarkable weight management benefits of GLP-1 receptor agonists and the power of a one-of-a kind- GIP nutraceutical." *These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.
