KELOWNA, BC / ACCESSWIRE / April 4, 2016 / Laguna Blends
Inc. (CSE: LAG) (OTC: LAGBF) (Frankfurt:
LB6A.F) (the "Company" or "Laguna") is
pleased to introduce "Pro369", Laguna's hemp protein, instant,
functional beverage to its network of independent affiliates in the
United States and Canada. Laguna's independent affiliates can
purchase Pro369 as of 12:00pm PST today by accessing their Laguna
affiliate shopping cart online.
Laguna has experienced rapid affiliate growth since its business
launch on March 7, 2016. In less than a month Laguna has attracted
more than 700 independent affiliates from all corners of the United
States and Canada, which exceeds growth projections. Laguna intends
on posting financial sales data in early May of 2016 to report its
first seven weeks of sales.
The first product category that Laguna has introduced are
unique, instant, functional beverage products that contain hemp
protein, omegas, ginseng and other efficacious
ingredients.
Naturally Splendid CEO Mr. Craig Goodwin states, "Laguna Blends
is building a team of industry experts. We are excited to be a part
of this team and look forward to providing Laguna Blends and their
customers with a superior protein blend formulated with our
HempOmega® technology. Laguna is the first Network Marketing
Company to have access to this HempOmega® technology, which is a
finalist for the prestigious NutraIngredients Awards in the
category of Start-up Ingredient of the Year."
Stuart Gray, Laguna's President and CEO, said, "The feedback
from the first product Laguna recently introduced, 'Caffe', has
been tremendous. By infusing both hemp and whey with coffee we have
generated interest in hemp within a mainstream market of coffee
drinkers. We are equally as excited to now offer Pro369 to our
active affiliates and their customers. Pro369 is a world-class
product that contains hemp, omegas and ginseng. The Minister of
Health from Health Canada has granted Laguna a product license
along with a Natural Product Number ("NPN") for all four of the
Pro369 Flavours. Notably, Laguna can make five health claims with
just this product alone, putting Pro369 in a league of its
own."
Naturally Splendid Enterprises Ltd. "Naturally Splendid" or
"NSE" (FRANKFURT:50N) (TSX VENTURE:NSP) (OTC:NSPDF) provided the
research and development of all four of the flavours of Pro369. In
addition, Laguna and NSE have entered into a manufacturing
agreement for Pro369.

* By 2020 the global sports nutrition market should reach
US$33.6 billion in revenues on the back of a 7 percent CAGR
(compound annual growth rate), according to a new market report
from Allied Market Research. For those living under a rock in
recent years: the consumer demographic in the sports nutrition
market has been expanding. While athletes account for about 37
percent of global sales of sports nutrition products and
recreational users 27 percent, the market has witnessed emergence
of a new user group dubbed as "lifestyle users." These new
consumers tend to use sports nutrition products as beverages, meal
replacements or healthy snacks, rather than purely for
exercise-related nutrition. This group of lifestyle users will grow
faster than any other in the sports nutrition market, followed by
the recreational users, according to the report, which cited the
rise in health club and fitness center locations worldwide as a key
growth driver. Overall, the report predicted a greater adoption of
sports nutrition products by working mothers, on-the-go business
people and outdoor enthusiasts.
Laguna Blends has been granted approval from Health Canada for
four powdered flavours: Pro369 Chocolate Banana, Mixed Berry and
Vanilla Caramel and Tropical Powder. Pro369 contains Hemp protein,
natural flavors, stevia, and American ginseng.
The Minister of Health from Health Canada has granted Laguna a
product license along with a Natural Product Number ("NPN") for all
four of the Pro369 Flavours. They are all listed under the same
NPN.
i. A source of protein that helps build and
repair body tissues.
ii. Source of amino acids involved in muscle
protein synthesis.
iii. Assists in the building of lean muscle.
iv. An adaptogen to help maintain a healthy immune
system.
v. Supportive therapy for the promotion of healthy
glucose levels.
