Healthy Extracts Inc. launched a prospective, investigational trial to study the effect of its UBN ACTIVATE on golf performance. The study will investigate if the natural brain activation supplement can improve golfers' energy conservation, mental focus and score during each round. During play, 10 subjects will wear metabolic measurement equipment to evaluate on-course energy expenditure.

They will then play nine holes of golf with and without taking ACTIVATE, and rate their overall focus, tee shots, second shots and short game accordingly. Each subject will also be evaluated with their preferred mode of golf transport: pushcart, electric trolley or motor cart. Neil Wolkodoff, PhD, medical program director of the Colorado Center for Health and Sports Science, will be the lead investigator for the study.

An avid golfer, he has authored several books about the physiology of the sport, including Physical Golf and Core Powered Golf. The study is sponsored by the Colorado Center for Health & Sports Science and the Colorado Golf Association, with the testing conducted at the Common Ground Golf Course in Aurora, Colorado. The study is expected to conclude in October, with the result to be published in a peer-reviewed, scientific journal.

The study is expected to build upon the success of a randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial published in Annals of Reviews and Research that highlighted the ability of ACTIVATE to naturally increase key brain activity by as much as 46%. Clinical studies have shown ACTIVATE dramatically improves human cognitive behavior and mental focus by activating areas of the brain primarily responsible for attention, memory, mood, and reaction times. These benefits are a result of the company's KETONOMICS® proprietary formulations clinically shown to quickly generate strong and sustained ketone levels in the brain.
