HealthSport Announces Growing Collegiate Sales Roster


AMHERST, N.Y., Sept. 5, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- HealthSport, Inc. (OTCBB: HSPO) announced today that additional college and university athletic departments have placed orders through Enlyten's distributor, Medco Supply Company, for its new electrolyte delivery product, the Enlyten(tm) SportStrips(tm) (http://enlytenstrips.com). As news of the products unique delivery system spreads, college and university athletic departments are purchasing the Enlyten SportStrips to replenish their athletes' electrolytes.

The University of Notre Dame, one of the NCAA's elite football teams, recently placed an order for the Enlyten SportStrips through Medco. The distribution company reported that the following colleges and universities have also purchased Enlyten SportStrips: Texas A&M, James Madison, University of Utah, Illinois State, Clarion University, Bradley University, and Faulkner University.

Enlyten SportStrips replace the electrolytes lost during vigorous athletic activity through a proprietary edible film strip delivery technology. Demonstrated scientifically to be a faster and more efficient way to deliver nutritional supplements and drug actives than ingesting them into the gastro-intestinal tract, the electrolyte content of the flavored film strip is absorbed directly into the bloodstream through the soft tissue of the inner cheek and gum -- a direct mode of electrolyte absorption unique to Enlyten SportStrips. On a cellular level, fluid is generally rejected by electrolyte deficient cells, so athletes tend to compensate by consuming excessive amounts of fluid which can result in conditions like cramping and vomiting. Enlyten provides an effective new method of maintaining proper electrolyte levels, helping athletes to optimize hydration and their level of physical performance.

"We are very excited that colleges and universities are using our product," said Gary Thomas, Vice President of Sales for Enlyten, Inc. "Seeing these teams purchase our product tells us that athletic trainers and athletes understand that Enlyten SportStrips can enhance performance without sugar, carbs, or calories. We are very encouraged by what we see and believe this trend will continue not only as football seasons progress, but into many other college sports."
