Kibow Biotech Recognizes World Kidney Day -- 2019

NEWTOWN SQUARE, Pa., March 14, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Kibow Biotech is pleased to announce that it will mark World Kidney Day, March 14, 2019, with a significant social media campaign to increase awareness of the importance of maintaining good kidney health. (Reference: worldkidneyday.org)

World Kidney Day is a global awareness campaign aimed at raising awareness of the importance of our kidneys

For over 21-years of continuous R&D, Kibow Biotech's team has been privileged to provide support to people worldwide in their struggle with kidney failure, with RENADYL™ (See: www.RENADYL.com). Kibow remains passionate about patient health and continues to focus its research efforts on developing new dietary supplement formulations that can provide additional health benefits, specifically, improved quality of life for consumers worldwide.

Also, Kibow has already initiated communications with US HHS/ASN/NKF/USFDA joint efforts and the recently launched program on Redesigning Dialysis, called KidneyX – (see: http://www.kidneyx.org/#about). Kibow has submitted two project proposals on this KidneyX prize competition and certainly hopes to be one of the winners and thus bring their innovative "Enteric Dialysis^®" technology to the attention of healthcare professionals and investment communities. Kibow is planning to spin out a new pharmaceutical division and taking RENADYL™ as a Live BIO Therapeutics (LBT) pharmaceutical drug. This can make a huge impact in possibly reducing the duration from four hours to three hours or less and/or the frequency of dialysis, maybe from three times to two times per week. This, in essence, represents between $8.5 Billion to $11.3 Billion cost savings to US healthcare now spent on dialysis patients with improved outcome and greater Quality Of Life (QOL).

The dietary supplement formulation of Renadyl™ is not meant to cure, prevent or mitigate any disease. Actual results may differ significantly from the above forward-looking statements due to a number of factors. These include but are not limited to the possibility that Renadyl™ may not reduce levels of uremic toxins in each and every individual, due to differences that exist between individuals that cannot be controlled such as genetics and lifestyle factors, as well as environmental factors that would include proper storage of the product and conditions of transport of the product in the chain of commerce.
