Dr. […] Tersus Pharmaceuticals, a biopharmaceuticals firm in Cleveland, Ohio, developed the science behind Provinal™–an ultrapurified form of Omega 7 (Palmitoleic acid)–that has been shown to possess broad properties for cardiovascular health. CLEVELAND – October 17, 2012 – Dr. Michael Roizen, Chairman of the Wellness Institute at the Cleveland Clinic has joined Tersus Pharmaceuticals–a Cleveland-based Biopharmaceutical company […] In early 2010, Tersus Life Sciences was a recipient of an Affordable Care Act Grants to Support Groundbreaking Biomedical Research, and has been working on the parallel development of Provinal™ as a nutritional supplement, as well as a food additive. Dr. Michael Roizen, Chairman of the Wellness Institute at the Cleveland Clinic, who has joined Tersus Life Sciences as the Chairman of the Scientific Advisory Board said: “This could have a huge benefit for our populations as a whole because Metabolic syndrome, Insulin resistance, and Diabetes are big things we need to tackle for us to be more competitive for jobs, and the United States to be more competitive as a society. We need more studies, but this could really be a great addition—that’s why I joined Tersus Life Sciences—to see if we could get more data on the benefits and risks of purified omega-7.” The raw materials required to produce Provinal® are abundant and sustainable, and the company has secured a global supply. Provinal® is an ultra-purified Omega 7 Fatty Acid blend developed by Tersus Life Sciences, a Bonita Springs biopharmaceutical firm that was the recipient of one of the Therapeutic Discovery Grants for Groundbreaking Medical Research. “These grants made possible by the Affordable Care Act will not only help to create jobs and bolster the economy but also bring us closer to the next generation of life-saving cures.” The Product – Key Specifications In a few short years, Tersus Life Sciences has positioned itself as the nation’s leading biopharmaceutical firm conducting research, development, and commercialization of Omega 7 fatty acids . The company has submitted patents, and has patents pending for Provinal™ in a number of different areas, primarily surrounding the purification of Omega 7 Palmitoleic Acid from its more harmful counterpart Palmitic Acid. With Provinal, the company has developed a product with 50% concentration of palmitoleic acid while keeping the levels of palmitic acid to less than 1%.
