Embria Health Sciences Gives Back 10,000-Fold to Local Hospitals, Charities, Police and Fire Stations by "Sharing the Health"

ANKENY, Iowa, Jan. 31, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Celebrating 10 successful years in business, Embria Health Sciences will be donating 10,000 free bottles of its ingredient EpiCor in a statewide and national Share the Health program. EpiCor fermentate is a safe and natural nutritional supplement with years of human research showing it strengthens the immune and digestive systems to help people live healthier lives.

During 2017 Embria will reach out to hospitals, police and fire stations, charities, and other organizations throughout Iowa to take part in the Share the Health program. National organizations are encouraged to contact Embria at (877) 362-7421 or email [email protected] to learn how to participate. Free bottles of EpiCor will also be given out at various health tradeshows and fairs in Iowa and nationwide. 

"We truly believe in the health promoting benefits of EpiCor," says Jeff Cannon, CEO of Embria's parent company, Diamond V, "and that's why we want to give thousands of people the opportunity to enjoy a free bottle on us."

More than a decade ago Diamond V discovered that the plant operation workers that were exposed to its natural fermentation product were extraordinary healthy. After years of research Embria was established to produce EpiCor fermentate specifically for human health.  Since then, Embria has produced millions of doses of EpiCor in Ankeny, Iowa to help people stay healthy.

"Giving back is part of our company culture," Mr. Cannon adds. "Embria supports various charities through a donor-advised fund that provided $750,000 to various Iowa and industry charities last year and will contribute this year as well."
