Nutritional High Announces Launch of First Active Hemp Products

TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Jan. 26, 2016) - Nutritional High International Inc. (the "Company" or "Nutritional High") (CSE:EAT) (OTCQB:SPLIF) is pleased to announce that the first products in the Active Hemp line of products, being launched by its wholly owned subsidiary, Nutritional Traditions, are now available to retail stores in Northern California. The Active Hemp capsules are available in 5 mg and 25 mg doses, which include non-psychoactive ingredients that naturally occur in the industrial hemp plant. All hemp used in the products is tested for quality and purity.

The Company is excited about the potential of its Active Hemp products and is working to expand this product line in the near future. Included in launch plans are products which use a push cap delivery system for nutritional supplements - including those that naturally occur in the industrial hemp plant - that can be used to turn an ordinary bottle of water into a delicious, healthy drink that consumers can carry with them throughout the day.

"Launching our first products into the marketplace is a major milestone for the Company," commented Nutritional High CEO David Posner. "We expect our Active Hemp products to rapidly gain market share. We'll endeavor to stay on the cutting edge by continuing to introduce innovative and high-quality products."

Resignation of Michael Pesner

The Company also announces that Michael Pesner has resigned from the board of directors due to other commitments. We thank Michael for his contributions to the Company.
