Natural Bridges Products, Inc. » view management team

In January 2001, Natural Bridges Products Inc., based in Watsonville, Calif., was incorporated to introduce all-natural products that address the lifestyle and health concerns of mainstream consumers, not simply the health food store customer. With the goal to shorten the distance between a consumer’s health and lifestyle, Natural Bridges brings all-natural formulas with proven general health benefits to the marketplace for consumption.

“Bridging the gap between health and lifestyle!™” is Natural Bridges’ mission, concept and promise to its customers. The company’s first lifestyle enhancement product is keeping this promise strong. FIRST CALL™, a liver support formula developed by one of its founders, Dr. Charles Cochran, prevents the often debilitating physical impact of alcohol consumption commonly referred to as a hangover. FIRST CALL™ is the key to sensible drinking and naturally combines responsibility, health and an enhanced lifestyle, allowing consumers to enjoy themselves without experiencing the symptoms of the alcohol hangover.

Dr. Charles Cochran, Natural Bridges director of research and development, found that most drinkers, and even healthcare professionals, do not understand how destructive the hangover can be. Aside from the destructive qualities of alcohol, the hangover produces certain physiological changes in the body that profoundly interfere with normal functioning of the endocrine, detoxification and nervous systems. This audience frequently forgets the liver’s importance and its responsibility for eliminating by-products of alcohol consumption and, because of this, they feel fatigue, headaches and discomfort after drinking. Also, studies have shown that in the U.S., alcohol use costs $148 billion a year in missed work and poor job performance. In the workplace, 87 percent of all alcohol-related problems are caused by light to moderate drinkers. Elimination of the alcohol-related hangover would not only have profound effects on the individual, but a huge economic impact as well. With this knowledge and research on liver-support products, he and the Natural Bridges team created FIRST CALL™. This all-natural food product consists entirely of artichoke and sarsaparilla and is a concentrated product in capsule form that prevents hangovers.

Natural Bridges continues to research and develop products to enhance everyone’s lifestyle, including formulations to support joint health, create healthy skin and aid in proper digestion. Research also is continuing in the creation of food bars and drinks that utilize patented whole food and protein sources.
