Glucose Health Board member Chris Jemapete emphasized that the Company's GlucoDown
®
and Fiber-Up
®
soluble fiber products are designed to complement—not replace—GLP-1 therapies.
"Our products are intended to help consumers maximize and sustain the benefits of their overall wellness journey,"
Mr. Jemapete said.
"The clinically studied soluble fiber used in our formulations has been shown to support healthy blood sugar management by helping reduce post-meal glucose spikes. In addition, soluble fiber supports digestive health, promotes healthy metabolism, and contributes to overall metabolic wellness. GlucoDown
®
and Fiber-Up
®
are designed to work alongside healthy lifestyle choices and physician-directed treatment plans—not as substitutes, but as valuable nutritional complements."
“With John Duffy's appointment, Glucose Health believes it is well positioned to accelerate growth, expand market awareness, strengthen strategic partnerships, and capitalize on the rapidly growing demand for evidence-based nutritional products that support healthy blood sugar management, digestive wellness, and long-term metabolic health.”
Board member Edmund Burke emphasized the strong consumer response the Company's products have received in the marketplace.
"Customer feedback continues to validate both the quality and effectiveness of our products,"
Burke said.
"Our caffeine-free GlucoDown
®
tea products consistently earn above average customer ratings exceeding four out of five stars on Amazon. Likewise, our GlucoDown
®
water enhanced products have received similarly strong ratings for both taste and convenience. This level of consumer satisfaction reinforces our confidence in the strength of our brand as we continue to expand our presence in the growing health and wellness market."
Commenting on his appointment, Mr. Duffy said:
"Throughout my career, I have closely followed the rapidly expanding health and wellness sector, both in the United States and globally. Consumers are increasingly embracing GLP-1 therapies as part of a broader commitment to healthier lifestyles, weight management, appetite control, and improved metabolic health. At Glucose Health, we believe long-term wellness extends beyond medication alone. Our mission is to provide consumers with convenient, affordable and superior tasting nutritional solutions that complement these therapies and help them maintain the healthy habits and progress they have worked hard to achieve."
"It is an honor to join Glucose Health at such an exciting point in the Company's evolution," said Mr. Duffy. "The Company has developed a differentiated portfolio of science-backed products addressing one of today's most important health challenges. I look forward to working with our talented team to expand our market presence, build a category-leading consumer brand, and deliver sustainable growth for our customers, retail partners, and shareholders."
