GHSI Guardion Health Sciences Inc

Guardion Health Sciences, Inc (“Guardion” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq:GHSI) announced that Ho Wah Genting Berhad (“HWGB”) a Malaysian company listed on the Malaysian Stock Exchange (Industrial Products sector) has selected Guardion to develop an immune- supportive formula for their consumer base. HWGB has contracted Guardion and its recently acquired subsidiary NutriGuard, to develop a proprietary formula to meet the demands of their customers for an immune-supportive product.

Professor Mark McCarty, the original founder of NutriGuard, and now a senior scientist consultant to Guardion, is a leader in the scientific validation of nutrition-based therapies for potentiating the type 1 interferon response to RNA viruses. Boosting type 1 interferon response is believed to blunt the replication of virus cells. Dr McCarty has been tasked with developing this proprietary formula for HWGB.

The formula is designed to provide both immuno-supportive and anti-inflammatory benefits to its users. The formula has not been used nor tested, nor is it intended to specifically address symptoms of the current COVID-19 virus.

Michael Favish, CEO of Guardion Health Sciences, stated “We are pleased to partner with Ho Wah Genting Berhad for the development of a product specifically designed to boost the immune system capability, i.e. type 1 interferon response, to RNA viruses.”

Dato’ Aaron Lim, group CEO for Ho Wah Genting Berhad, commented, “We are anxious to be able to deliver a unique product that can provide a timely and effective immune response to our customer base. I would like to thank Guardion Health Sciences for their assistance and responsiveness to this request and look forward to introducing this much needed product to the market.”
