SpeechNutrients Initiates Focus Group for Children With Speech Challenges

SpeechNutrients, a division of NourishLife, announces the start of a Focus Group with their PharmaOmega speakTM product. A group of about 80 children with speech challenges has been selected to participate in the 3 month event.

(Vocus) September 23, 2008 -- SpeechNutrients announced today the commencement of a Focus Group for PharmaOmega speakTM (http://www.speechnutrients.com), their patented omega-3/antioxidant cocktail. About 80 children and young adults will receive complimentary PharmaOmega speakTM for a 3 month period.

Families of children who face speech difficulties were invited to participate in the PharmaOmega speakTM Focus Group. The response was overwhelming, and unfortunately many applicants had to be declined. Approximately 80 participants from the USA, Canada, and Europe will record their observations and experiences and report both positive and negative results.

PharmaOmega speakTM is a nutritional product designed to support normal speech development and maintenance. The patented formulation provides seven nutrients in the precise dose and ratio shown to be effective in 2 pre-measured, pleasant tasting, hypo-allergenic capsules. Before the development of PharmaOmega speakTM, this combination of nutrients had to be purchased separately in 12 capsules and tablets and at a much higher cost. Information is available at http://www.speechnutrients.com.

Research behind the formula has been published at the Proceedings of the Annual Meeting of the Pediatric Academy Societies in 2007 and 2008. In the 2008 abstract, Morris CR, et al, “Syndrome of Allergy, Apraxia & Malabsorption: Characterization of a Neurodevelopmental Condition that Responds to Omega 3 & Vitamin E supplementation”, the authors state: “175 families (96%) anecdotally reported dramatic improvements in a number of areas including speech, imitation, coordination, eye contact, behavior, sensory issues and the development of pain sensation.” (See the abstract www.SpeechTrial.com/research_publications.aspx)

Mark Nottoli, co-founder of NourishLife states, “The anecdotal evidence reported by a large number of parents is encouraging. The patented formula in PharmaOmega speakTM has been developed with great attention to the latest science and research. We cannot expect this formulation to help every child, but a significant percentage are experiencing positive results. With our precise patented formulation and the convenient 2-capsule delivery form, we expect even better outcomes.”

According to Gretchen K. Vannice, MS, RD, Manager of Scientific Affairs at NourishLife, “We are pleased to have the opportunity to provide this special formula to families in the Focus Group. We look forward to what we will learn and to providing PharmaOmega speakTM for the proposed double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial.”
