CEDAR KNOLLS, N.J.,
Oct. 26, 2017 /PRNewswire/
-- NFL Alumni, under its commercial marketing arm Pro Football
Legends, has announced a partnership with MYOS RENS Technology Inc.
("MYOS" or "the Company") (NASDAQ: MYOS), a biotherapeutics and
bionutrition company and the owner of Fortetropin®, the
world's first all-natural clinically demonstrated myostatin
reducer, in support of the NFL Alumni NY/NJ Chapter's Optimal Bowl
and Wellness Challenge.
"We are pleased to announce our partnership with MYOS RENS
Technology Inc.," said Elvis Gooden,
Interim President & CEO of NFL Alumni. "A primary mission of
the NFL Alumni is 'Caring For Our Own' and with this product our
members will be able to participate in the Wellness Challenge and
the continued promotion of healthy living."
The NFL Alumni NY/NJ Chapter's Optimal Bowl and Wellness
Challenge is a not-for-profit wellness project, featuring former
NFL players. The 90-day challenge will feature teams of former NFL
players and military veterans working together with world class
medical specialists in a variety of activities designed to improve
their individual health. In addition to sponsoring this
wellness challenge, MYOS is partnering with the NFL Alumni by
providing challenge participants with the opportunity to utilize
the Company's muscle enhancing product Qurr®, powered by
Fortetropin®.
Throughout the wellness challenge, the public will be able to
follow challenge participants' journeys to wellness through
reality-based web TV documentary series and mass media initiatives
that will include important preventive health information and
educate the public about wellness. This exciting and educational
competition culminates with the ultimate showdown of health and
wellness, the Optimal Bowl.
"We are happy to be supporting the NFL Alumni in the
Optimal Bowl and Wellness Challenge, to raise awareness about the
importance of muscle health," said Joseph
Mannello, Chief Executive Officer of MYOS. "It's a proven
fact that we start losing lean muscle with each decade of life,
beginning at 30 years of age. This is due to many factors,
including inactivity, reduced levels of anabolic hormones and
inadequate protein intake. Our Qurr® muscle health
products contain the groundbreaking ingredient
Fortetropin®, the first safe, all-natural myostatin
reducing ingredient available, and it is clinically shown to build
lean muscle mass and thickness with the proper training. Our
partnership with the NFL Alumni fits perfectly within our mission
of promoting the benefits of Fortetropin® in a regular
exercise regimen, regardless of age or physical condition,"
continued Mr. Mannello.
"The NFL Alumni's mission is to serve, assist and inform our
members to enrich their post-NFL lives. A partnership with MYOS, a
leader in muscle health technology, aligns with our principal
mission of helping our members and their families set the tone for
continued healthy lifestyles," said Bart
Oates, former member of the New York Giants, President of
the NFL Alumni NY/NJ Chapter and a founder of the Optimal Bowl and
Wellness Challenge.
"We have offered product discounts to all alumni members,
member's families, and affiliates who take the product," said Mr.
Mannello. "At the same time, we have continued our "90-Day
Qurr®. Challenge" to the public, where anyone can use
the product daily for 90 days, while working out with weights at
least twice a week. If they don't see results after 90 days, we
will refund their money back. Simply put, we know the product
works, and we will put our money where our mouth is," Mr. Mannello
added.
