Pharmanex Uses First Nanotechnology Process to Boost Absorption of Nutrients in Nutritional Supplements

LifePak Nano Provides Comprehensive Nutrition in Highly Absorbable Forms

PROVO, Utah — November 30, 2005 — Pharmanex announced today the launch of lifepak® nano, a multivitamin nutritional supplement that utilizes the first-ever nanotechnology process of its kind designed to enhance nutrient absorption.

"Lifepak nano is a scientific breakthrough in the field of nutrition," said Joe Chang Ph.D., president of Pharmanex. "Using nanotechnology in nutrition allows for up to 10 times more nutrient absorption in the body. This means people can be confident that the nutrients they are getting with lifepak nano are providing them the most benefit possible."

Pharmanex® uses nanotechnology to individually "wrap" each nutrient molecule, making the nutrients "nano-ized." This keeps these nutrients from clinging together and maximizes each molecule's contact with the GI tract, allowing for increased absorption in the body.*

About LifePak® Nano
Lifepak® nano uses the first-ever, proprietary formula of its kind in a multivitamin that includes both carotenoids (beta-carotene, lycopene, lutein, etc.) and CoQ10 in "nano-ized" forms. Without being "nano-ized," these two important nutrients are traditionally difficult for the body to absorb. A recent study showed that "nano-ized" CoQ10 was five to ten times more absorbable in the body than the traditional form of CoQ10. Along with "nano-ized" nutrients, lifepak® nano supplies all of a person's necessary vitamins, minerals and antioxidants in easily absorbable forms.

With more than 60 antioxidants, essential vitamins and minerals and omega-3 fatty acids, lifepak® nano is the most comprehensive nutritional supplement on the market. Each daily dose of lifepak® nano supplies 1,200 milligrams of omega-3 fatty acids and more than 60 different antioxidants that fight against damage-causing free radicals and promote healthy cells in the body.*

Lifepak® nano is an extension of Pharmanex's cornerstone product LifePak®, which is the company's top revenue-generating item around the world. Currently, the product is being offered in the United States with global launches planned during 2006. To purchase Lifepak Nano visit www.pharmanex.com or call 1-800-487-1000.
