Sami Labs gets US award

Our Bureau

BANGALORE: The Bangalore-based pharmaceutical company Sami Labs Ltd, along with its associate company Sabinsa Corporation, USA, has been awarded the Thomas Alva Edison Patent Award for the year 2004 at the Liberty Science Centre in New Jersey.

The award has been instituted by the Research and Development Council of New Jersey, USA, for the best patent of the year.

The award was given for its invention, which involves developing ForsLean, a drug made out of the extract from the roots of the Coleus Forskohlii plant. ForsLean is a product that naturally and safely promotes lean body mass by increasing the body's thermogenic response to food, which improves the absorption of nutrients and their incorporation into lean body mass. It also helps to regulate metabolism for long-term weight loss and treats mood disorders in overweight individuals without any adverse side effects.

ForsLean was also voted as the "Best New Product" of the year 2001 by the industry association "Nutracon" in the US.
