“Most of our member companies wanted to stay open, and were staying open under the assumption that they were a part of either the food sector or the health care sector,” said Steve Mister, president and CEO of the Council for Responsible Nutrition (CRN), in an interview. “What this does is it makes it clear. So if someone from state law enforcement should show up and ask, 'Why are you open?’ they can directly point to the CISA guidance.”
Mister added, “When the first round of this memo came out, we were pretty confident that we would be included by inference … but it didn’t expressly say dietary supplements. You kind of had to read between the lines to read us into it.”

“AHPA appreciates that dietary supplement workers are now specifically identified as 'essential critical infrastructure’ in this latest guidance from the Department of Homeland Security,” Michael McGuffin, president of the American Herbal Products Association (AHPA), is quoted as saying in a press release. “However … companies and workers should check state and local recommendations and directives in making status determinations for operations that qualify as essential critical infrastructure.”

In a new pilot study, published in the Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition, researchers aimed to investigate the antioxidant benefits of lycopene, but specifically, how they stacked up against tomato powder, a tomato supplement closer to its whole food origin which contains not only lycopene but a broader profile of micronutrients and various bioactive components.

With the brevity of the study duration, the authors did hypothesize, however, that a longer-term supplementation regimen of lycopene could result in stronger antioxidant benefits for the isolated nutrient, in accordance with other studies that were carried out over a period of several weeks. Nonetheless, whole tomato contains chemical compounds that can enhance beneficial outcomes in synergy compared to a single compound, the authors said.

“This study re-affirms the anti-arthritic effect of BCM-95 and provides renewed hope for millions to improve their quality of life,” said Nipen Lavingia, brand innovation advisor for Arjuna Natural based in Dallas, TX.
