Dr. Stephen A. Levine, CEO of Scottsdale Scientific (OTCBB:STDS) announces the introduction of Eurocel, the latest dietary supplement in the Allergy Research Group line. Based on herbal remedies from traditional oriental medicine, Eurocel was developed by an Asian pharmaceutical company which researched and combined herbs used traditionally to support liver health.

A 2-year clinical survey recently completed on patients with Hepatitis C shows a dramatic decrease in viral titers after use of the herbal formula, with the largest decrease occurring in the first 1-2 months of use. Viral titers are measured in the liver, indicating the level of viruses circulating in the blood and being filtered through the liver. After 24 months of taking the herbs, the total count of various patient's viral titer count decreased from levels in the billions to levels in the thousands, a drop of up to one million fold. Elevated liver enzyme levels, indicators of liver damage, also dropped to normal levels.

A conservative estimate from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention place over 2 million people in the U.S as currently suffering from Hepatitis C, making it the most common blood borne infection in the U.S. First discovered in 1989, it ranks with alcohol abuse as the leading cause of liver disease and can lead to cirrhosis and liver cancer.

"I am very excited to finally make this dietary supplement available to our customers. I have reviewed the literature available and tested this product with some of the physicians we work with. Based on the research available and initial feedback, I believe that Eurocel has the potential to profoundly effect many people affected with liver conditions," states Levine.

The Fall 2000 issue of InFocus, the Allergy Research Group newsletter, contains more information on Eurocel and is being mailed next week to over 7,000 healthcare practitioners. For further information, please contact Allergy Research Group at 1-800-545-9960.
