MEND™ announced today that it continues to gain adoption by various special operations forces within the US Military and will continue to provide the Military products at cost in a show of patriotic support.
MEND was initially contacted by units within the US Army Special Operations Command in 2015 to incorporate its MEND Orthopedic product for healing and recovery from surgery/injury into rehabilitation for its soldiers. In 2016 MEND began work with units in Air Force Special Operations Command and more recently has engaged with other units throughout the US Special Operations Command and is expanding into the various conventional branches. Military units continue to adopt MEND's products for recovery and healing as well as peak physical performance.

[post_content] => Collaboration aims to research, identify medical nutrition formulations to support and enhance orthopedic patient outcomes
NEW YORK, July 24th, 2018 – MEND, a company founded by medical and nutrition experts who share the philosophy that better nutrition comes better healing, has established a partnership with Slocum Foundation, the non-profit research and education  arm of Slocum Center for Orthopedics & Sports Medicine, to execute studies on medical nutrition for orthopedics. As a part of the partnership, Slocum Center for Orthopedics and Sports Medicine, a recognized leader in the field of orthopedics, sports medicine and research, will offer MEND’s current award winning products to patients who may benefit from enhanced nutrition after injury or surgery.
Introduced in 2015, award winning MEND Orthopedic, a powder beverage supplement, is utilized throughout orthopedic practices and professional sports to improve tissue repair, manage inflammation and to support healing and recovery from a broad spectrum of orthopedic injuries, surgeries and micro-trauma from sports and exercise. In 2016, the company introduced MEND Regenerate, an awarded anti-aging product of the year, beating out 400 other applicants across consumer categories. MEND Regenerate focuses on combating sarcopenia, an aging related condition which results in the accelerated loss of muscle tissue mass and leads to frailty and general loss of physical function.
“We are quite excited to work with an orthopedic group like Slocum to advance research in this emerging and fast growing field” says MEND CEO Eziah Syed, “we know from prior clinical studies that the right nutrients and correct use of supplementation has been proven effective in enhancing healing and recovery from orthopedic injuries and surgeries – we believe medical nutrition has a very important role to play in the future of patient care.”
Led by Dr. Hans Dreyer in the Department of Human Physiology at University of Oregon, the Slocum Foundation has been at the forefront of studying clinical nutrition. “We showed in our first double blind study that essential amino acid supplementation can have a very beneficial impact on the total joint replacement population” says Dr. Brian Jewett, Chair of Research at the Slocum Foundation and President of the Slocum Center for Orthopedics and Sports Medicine, “we’re keen to continue studying how nutrients can support and enhance patient healing and recovery and are excited to work with a very innovative company like MEND.”
