New Nutritional Supplement BioShield-Radiation® First to Offer Radiation Protection in Pill Form

Ideal For X-Ray Patients; Healthcare, Aviation & Military Personnel
NASHVILLE, Tenn.--(Business Wire)--
After a series of comprehensive research studies and a governmental research
initiative, a respected team of radiation biologists and antioxidant scientists
at Premier Micronutrient Corporation has developedBioShield-Radiation® - a
patented micronutrient formulation specifically designed to address oxidative
stress produced by ionizing radiation.

Now offered for the first time direct to the public via the new
www.bioshieldpill.com website and the only product of its kind on the market,
BioShield-Radiation® contains a unique, proprietary combination of dietary and
endogenous antioxidants which have each exhibited radiation protection
capabilities. Completely safe and maximally effective in decreasing oxidative
stress as demonstrated in numerous scientific studies, BioShield-Radiation® is
recommended for:

* Patients undergoing medical or dental x-ray procedures, including CT, nuclear,
mammography, and fluoroscopy
* Anyone regularly exposed to elevated levels of ionizing radiation such as
healthcare, aviation, military and nuclear power plant personnel, as well as
people living in high radon homes and environments
* Frequent fliers (on average, the amount of cosmic radiation roughly doubles
with every 6500-foot increase in altitude)

In addition to being offered direct to the public, BioShield-Radiation is now
available for purchase by hospitals, imaging centers, physician practices and
dental facilities as well.

Genesis of BioShield Radiation

The U.S. Pentagon`s search for ways to protect its personnel from the adverse
effects of radiation they might encounter led them to Premier Micronutrient
Corporation (www.mypmcinside.com), co-founded by Dr. Kedar Prasad, the first
person to receive a Ph.D. in radiation biology in the United States. Because of
the company`s unparalleled expertise in antioxidant science, it was encouraged
to develop an approach to radiation protection on a biologic basis that entailed
close research collaboration with the Department of Defense and NASA and which -
among other important applications - ultimately led to the development of the
BioShield-Radiation® pill.
