John Pougnet, CEO of XELR8 Holdings, Inc. stated, "The affiliation with both the Steadman Hawkins Clinic and the Greenville Hospital System validates the importance of our product lines and have proven to show the many benefits that people experience who take our BAZI products as a nutritional supplement on a daily basis. Our sales and marketing efforts continue to increase our sales channels among current distributors and penetrate new distributors on a daily basis."
"Dr. Richard Hawkins and I spent a number of years looking for potency without any contaminants -- a big deal for athletes as well as the casual person," says Dr. Jim Silliman, President and CEO of Steadman Hawkins and Medical Director of the Institute for Musculoskeletal Health at the Greenville Hospital System. "We wanted a complete line of products, and when we came across XELR8, it had the complete package. We did due diligence on its quality, and now our dieticians can offer BAZI throughout our facilities. In addition to using BAZI product lines in our health and medical facilities, I am pleased to say my entire family uses it."
