FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Risks of Breast Cancer and Heart Disease
Prompts Millions of Women to Seek
Natural Alternatives to Lower Bad Cholesterol, Increase
Good Cholesterol
Nashville, Tenn. – October 7, 2004 – The
2004 update from the American Heart Association’s
(AHA) Heart Disease and Stroke Statistics documents that
over 50 million American women have borderline to high
cholesterol levels, coupled with a recently published study
in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute (2004:
96:1152-1160) that linked low levels of HDL or “good
cholesterol” with increased risks for developing
postmenopausal breast cancer, has prompted women across
the country to identify natural alternatives to lower “bad” cholesterol,
increase “good” cholesterol and reduce the
risks of developing heart disease and breast cancer.
“The availability of TeaFlavin®, a non-prescription
green tea extract with clinical trial evidence that documents
a 16% decrease in LDL, ‘bad cholesterol,’ and
a 3%-4% rise in HDL, ‘good cholesterol’ is
well timed,” says Jim Zhao, Ph.D. a molecular biologist
and Chief Science Officer, Nashai Biotech, LLC. “An
estimated 280,000 women die annually of either heart disease
or breast cancer. We have responded to this situation by
developing an all natural product that has clinically proven,
positive effects for woman at an increased risk of developing
heart disease, breast cancer or both.”
The AHA has clearly stated the relationship between high
cholesterol and increased risks of heart disease. To mitigate
these risks, an increasing number of women have begun to
incorporate more exercise, a healthier diet and the addition
of TeaFlavin® to their daily routine.
“TeaFlavin® was designed to offer women and
men a non-prescription, heart-healthy alternative to lowering
their cholesterol without the potential adverse effects
of prescription medication,” says Dr. Zhao. “TeaFlavin® offers
women a caffeine-free alternative for those seeking to
reduce their cholesterol that does not contribute to the
muscle-wasting and liver damage associated with the use
of some prescription medications.”
The AHA recently announced new cholesterol guidelines
that increase the number of Americans classified with having
cholesterol levels that put them at “moderate to
high risk” by several million. A large number of
Americans are already feeling the pinch of higher prescription
drug prices and this new “at risk population” may
not want to add additional prescriptions to those they
may already be taking. Many see TeaFlavin® as the natural
solution.
