Nature’s Sunshine Announces Entry Into CBD Market
Company plans to redefine CBD market by improving performance, quality, and transparency
LEHI, Utah, Sept. 06, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Nature’s Sunshine Products, Inc. (NASDAQ: NATR), today announced that it will enter the CBD market with a full line of hemp-derived CBD products.
Unlike other CBD products on the market, scientists at the company’s Hughes Center for Research and Innovation have developed a series of proprietary products containing whole spectrum hemp extracts with naturally occurring CBD that deliver targeted levels of phytocannabinoids to trigger specific cannabinoid receptors in the body. Scientists at the Hughes Center have also leveraged the company’s industry-leading expertise in herbal supplements to integrate unique and proprietary combinations of natural herbs, phyto-nutrients, and herbal essential oils to optimize performance.
This hybrid approach results in a targeted and effective CBD product that naturally helps keep the endocannabinoid system in balance. Simply put, that means the body can perform at its optimal level.
“We are excited to be entering the CBD market with a unique line of products that take CBD to the next level by redefining quality and performance,” said Terrence Moorehead, President and Chief Executive Officer. “What’s more, consumers know they can trust Nature’s Sunshine because of our high standards, in-depth quality testing, and award-winning production. We believe Nature’s Sunshine is uniquely qualified to take the fast-growing CBD industry in the right direction and offer consumers the best, most reliable products on the market.”
The full line of products will be released across multiple distribution channels. Strong emphasis will be placed on traceability and improved sourcing which will allow Nature’s Sunshine to deliver active compounds that offer better performance, quality and transparency than any other company in the market, while improving the overall consumer experience.
