(Emerald) (TSXV:EMH; OTCQX:EMHTF) today announced that its joint venture partners, (Emerald Health Bioceuticals or EHB), Endo Bliss, won Taste For Lifes 2019 Essentials Supplement Award, which recognizes the most outstanding natural supplements in health and wellness in the U.S. Emerald will launch the Endo product line in Canada in 2019 through its joint venture, Emerald Health Naturals (EHN), which secured Canadian distribution rights for this product line that was developed to support the bodys endocannabinoid system (ECS), but which does not contain cannabis. Endo Bliss is part of the Endo product line of novel nutritional supplements created to support the human ECS. Formulated to promote positive outlook and mood, Endo Bliss features Emeralds proprietary PhytoCann Complex, an herbal and botanical complex completely free of cannabis or its derivatives. Saffron extract, which has been proven to improve mood and outlook, is also included in the formula to further bolster its efficacy. Endo Bliss recognition as a top natural supplement to support endocannabinoid healthby Taste for Life in the U.S. is a notable accolade, said Gaetano Morello, ND, CEO of Emerald Health Naturals. The Endo product line offers people who use natural health products a completely new and unique category of nutritional supplement. To receive this award, at a time when more US retailers are showing interest in putting Endo on their shelves, is added confirmation to us that Endo is fulfilling an unmet need in the marketplace for non-cannabis products that support the endocannabinoid system. We aim to launch the Endo line this year via an extensive nationwide retail network of Canadian retailers that will far exceed the current number of cannabis retail stores. We will not only create a unique profit opportunity with this product line, we will create significant incremental recognition for Emerald cannabis products and an entrenched presence in natural health food, pharmacy and other channels should non-psychoactive cannabis products be permitted in these channels in the future. The endocannabinoid system is a biological system critical in establishing and maintaining homeostasis in every cell, tissue and organ in the body.
