(Nasdaq: GHSI) (“Guardion” or the “Company”), a specialty health sciences company that develops clinically supported nutrition, medical foods and medical devices, with a focus in the ocular health marketplace, announced progress on the introduction of its new vision support/energy drink, Epiq-V, which is under development for the United States and international markets.

Epiq-V contains Lutein, a primary ingredient in the Company’s flagship product, Lumega-Z, and is being developed for an adult market as a vision health and support product concurrently with a second formulation for introduction as a visual attention and energy drink primarily focused on the youth market to support video gaming and other close-up device viewing requirements for this age group. The initial round of testing has been completed and the final round is currently underway and expected to be completed by the end of the first quarter of 2021.   The commercial product is expected to be available 12 to 16 weeks after the final round of testing. With respect to the Asian market, specifically China, the Company has already filed and been granted a trademark (utilizing Chinese characters) for the Epiq-V brand name. Trademark protection for the brand has also been submitted for approval in the United States.

David Evans, Ph.D., Guardion’s interim President and Chief Executive Officer, and Chief Science Officer, stated, “We have long emphasized the importance of using our unique formulation capabilities to access markets both in the United States and internationally, and during 2020 we established a presence in Asia. With the development and eventual distribution of Epiq-V, we hope to expand our presence in Asia by providing a product line that is designed to support overall ocular health and attention.”

Dr. Evans concluded, “We are very proud of our approach to product development, which includes the integration of research-driven science combined with the development of innovative products that appeal to a wide range of demographics. We look forward to providing further updates on Epiq-V and other products as warranted.”
