PALM BEACH, Fla., Sept. 21, 2004 (PRIMEZONE) -- Suncoast Naturals, Inc. (OTCBB:SNTL) announced today that its "XCEL(tm)" isotonic sports drinks and "Opti-Woman(tm)" Healthier Alternative Beverage lines have been endorsed by the United States Professional Tennis Association (USPTA) as "Official Beverages" of the organization and its 13,000+ professional-teaching membership base.
The USPTA, which is headquartered in Houston, TX, has been seeking a high-quality beverage line that addresses the performance needs of its members and the their students in various age categories. The XCEL(tm) and Opti-Woman(tm) beverages have been determined to meet their requirements, and will be promoted and sold directly by their membership throughout the United States.
XCEL(tm) is a true nutraceutical, isotonic, energy replacement beverage that is vitamin and mineral fortified to meet the demands of strenuous activities. XCEL(tm) has been scientifically formulated with a better sodium/potassium balance to help regulate your body's temperature and water balance during higher levels of exercise. XCEL(tm) is also the only nutraceutical/functional sports drink that contains aloe vera, with complex carbohydrates, fiber and immune-enhancing benefits for healthy and active lifestyles. XCEL(tm) will be available in four popular flavors (Lemon-Lime, Orange, Grape and Citrus Punch) in both bottles and powder mix.
Opti-Woman(tm) is the result of a joint effort between Halcyon, LLC, LaBoost Inc. and InterHealth Nutraceuticals, Inc. to develop a gender-specific product for women to address the controversy over whether to take Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) or "all-natural" ingredients to facilitate the symptoms of Menopause during mid-life changes.
Opti-Woman(tm) is the first unique, non-carbonated, natural cranberry flavored, low-calorie beverage specifically designed for women undergoing mid-life changes. Formulated with proprietary ingredients such as ActiVin, Protykin and ChromeMate, along with soy Isoflavones and Folate, these nutrients provide powerful antioxidants, plant estrogens ("phytoestrogens") and vitamins that have been shown to help maintain normal estrogen activity, reduce hot flashes, balance mood swings, promote healthy bones, protect cardiovascular health, promote healthy skin, prevent the effects of premature aging -- before, during and after mid-life changes.
