Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - February 5, 2025) - Celly Nutrition Corporation (the "Company" or "Celly Nutrition"), the company behind unbuzzdTM - the scientifically-proven and game-changing beverage that accelerates alcohol metabolism, restores mental clarity and reduces hangover symptoms - announced today that it has engaged a leading New York investment bank to raise up to US$10 million in capital and explore the possibility of an initial public offering on a major US public exchange, subject to requisite regulatory approval.

On February 4, 2025, the Company entered into a letter of engagement with an investment bank to provide general financial advisory and investment banking services, which includes:

(a) advising the Company on matters relating to an uplisting to a major U.S. exchange, reverse merger into a public company or other transaction that results in the Company's listing on a major U.S. exchange; and

(b) acting as the exclusive managing underwriter and sole book running manager in connection with a proposed follow-on public offering of up to US$10 million in common stock of the Company.

John Duffy, CEO of Celly Nutrition stated, "this is an important milestone for Celly Nutrition and unbuzzd. Having successfully launched unbuzzd in the US market in 2024, our focus in 2025 is to raise additional capital which will enable Celly Nutrition to accelerate unbuzzd's marketing, retail, and direct-to-consumer sales development, and to expand the availability of unbuzzd to meet growing demand.". Mr. Duffy has more than two decades of experience in leadership positions in the beverage industry, including as former VP of Marketing Assets and VP of National Sales at Coca-Cola Company.

Gerry David, Board Co-Chair and former CEO of Celsius Holdings with their bestselling energy drink Celsius Energy, added, "I am confident that we have found the perfect partner to advise and guide Celly Nutrition as we work towards a potential capital raise and initial public offering. We have seen a great deal of interest in unbuzzd and want to give retail investors and markets the opportunity to participate in our success and to be part of the excitement surrounding unbuzzd."

About Celly Nutrition Corporation

Celly Nutrition, a non-trading but fully reporting public issuer, stands as a pioneering force in the wellness and recovery supplement landscape. unbuzzd has been developed by a world-class R&D team in pharmacology and medicine, with a commitment to innovation and quality. A proprietary blend of vitamins, minerals, and herbs, unbuzzd helps your body process alcohol faster, restore mental alertness, and improve cognition so you can drink responsibly and drink refreshingly. unbuzzd appeals to a broad target audience of alcohol consumers who want to have a good time, be in control, and still feel great the next day.

Scientifically backed by a recently completed double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled crossover design clinical trial, unbuzzd dramatically accelerates alcohol metabolism, speeds the reduction of blood alcohol concentration ("BAC"), restores mental clarity, and reduces the symptoms of intoxication, impairment and hangover. Key findings from the clinical trial include:

  • Accelerated Alcohol Metabolism: unbuzzd dramatically and rapidly reduced blood alcohol concentration in study participants. The rate at which BAC was lowered was, on average for most participants, more than 40 percent faster within 30 minutes of consuming unbuzzd compared to control subjects. This faster reduction of BAC after consuming unbuzzd was both statistically significant compared to placebo and was observed at each subsequent measurement of BAC over a four-hour period.
  • Rapid Improvements in Alertness: Study participants reported statistically significant improvement in alertness as soon as 30 minutes after consuming unbuzzd. Participants felt more alert and made fewer cognitive errors within 30 minutes of consuming unbuzzd, significantly outperforming placebo results.
  • Rapid Improvements in Physiologic Changes due to Intoxication: unbuzzd lessened the elevation in heart rate and the drop in blood pressure that often accompanies alcohol intoxication, stabilizing both. This result was statistically significant.
  • Reduced Perceived Impairment and Mental Fatigue: unbuzzd helped alleviate perceived impairment and mental fatigue caused by alcohol intoxication.
  • Hangover Relief: Participants in this study noted a statistically significant reduction in hangover symptoms. This included reduced cognitive and physical impairment, and reduced headache compared to placebo results, at both four hours (67 percent reduction in headache severity) and eight hours after consuming unbuzzd.
  • No Side Effects: unbuzzd was well-tolerated by all study participants, with no reported adverse side effects.

The full press release of the clinical trial can be found here.

unbuzzd ready-to-mix powder sticks are available in 3-pack and 18-pack formats on the unbuzzd website. unbuzzdTM is a registered trademark of Celly Nutrition Corp.

Individual results may vary. unbuzzd is a dietary supplement. Consuming unbuzzd after alcohol ingestion does not permit you to operate a vehicle. Drink responsibly. DO NOT DRINK AND DRIVE.
