ALTERNATIVE FOR HORMONAL BALANCE

SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS, AUGUST 5, 2002 -- Marathon Nutrifoods, the makers of OsteoPure, a patented, all-natural dietary supplement for bone health, has introduced OsteoPure Plus, a new dietary supplement designed to stimulate bone growth and provide natural estrogen replacement and hormonal balance.

OsteoPure Plus contains the same scientifically proven bone-building formula as the original OsteoPure. In addition, OsteoPure Plus also contains pueraria root, a natural source of isoflavones (phytoestrogens) similar to soy, which is widely used for maintaining balance of the female hormonal cycle. Pueraria root is also a powerful antioxidant and is used in Eastern medicine for a wide variety of ailments Ñ including improving vitality, alleviating premenstrual syndrome, preventing moods swings, and enhancing breast size.

Scientific research and individual experiences demonstrate that regular consumption of pueraria root has revitalizing effects on the overall health of most women. Pueraria has also been shown to restore libido, relieve hot flashes and alleviate sleep disturbance, enhance and firm the breasts and hips, as well as help eliminate acne and skin blemishes while enhancing skin texture.

OsteoPure and OsteoPure Plus are safe, all-natural supplements that are available without prescriptions. OsteoPure can be purchased at select Tampa, Florida-area GNC stores, and both products are available by calling toll-free, (866) 705-PURE, or on the World Wide Web at www.osteopure.com.
