LOS ANGELES, CA — (Marketwired) — 10/21/15 — ContentChecked Holdings, Inc. (OTCQB: CNCK) today highlights its coverage in leading trade publication, “The Tan Sheet.” As part of its broader coverage of the non-prescription pharmaceutical and nutritional industries, “The Tan Sheet” featured ContentChecked–s recently announced and unique partnership with Troy Healthcare in the October 9th issue.
ContentChecked and Troy Healthcare recently teamed up to apply their innovative products, MigraineChecked and Stopain® Migraine, respectively, as a convenient tool for consumers to access preventative information and fast-acting relief from migraines.
MigraineChecked is a unique, free mobile app that scans food bar codes to help consumers detect and avoid the more than 250,000 packaged foods known to trigger migraines. MigraineChecked users can set up profiles and favorites for themselves, as well as for family members or friends who may also experience migraines. Stopain Migraine is a topical gel that provides safe, fast and effective migraine pain relief without pills, known side effects or the risk of drug interaction. Stopain Migraine does not include aspirin, caffeine or acetaminophen, and can be used alone or in conjunction with other medications since there are no known drug interactions.
“The Tan Sheet” is a weekly trade magazine that provides customers with essential regulatory, business and clinical information concerning the healthcare industry. As the over-the-counter (OTC) industry–s leading source of analysis, information and news, “The Tan Sheet” is read by a growing audience of executives, marketers, consultants and investors. Coverage in “The Tan Sheet” provides both ContentChecked and Troy Healthcare with considerable exposure among these invaluable demographics.
“We–re honored to be featured in such a reputable, industry-leading publication,” says Kris Finstad, CEO of ContentChecked, the developer of MigraineChecked, SugarChecked and ContentChecked, a family of health apps for people with dietary restrictions and/or food preferences. “As we continue to advance exposure and availability of the ContentChecked brand, exposure of this nature is highly favorable to our growth initiatives and to spreading the word of our innovative and exciting technologies.”
ContentChecked has created a revolutionary marketplace for people with dietary restrictions and the organizations who cater to them by creating and introducing the ContentChecked, MigraineChecked and SugarChecked smartphone applications to the market. ContentChecked and MigraineChecked applications are the first applications with comprehensive and accurate content information, and in-depth allergen and migraine definitions for most U.S. food products. SugarChecked gives consumers the ability to scan the barcodes of grocery store products and determine what kind of sugars are contained within. This enables the applications to meet the needs of millions of people in the United States. As a result, ContentChecked has created a pivotal way for food producers to, at the point of purchase, be able to showcase their products to consumers who are actively seeking them.
Designed for use by those who suffer from food allergies, dietary intolerances, migraines and chronic headaches, ContentChecked and MigraineChecked applications have reached wide adoption levels. In the U.S. alone there are 15 million people who suffer from food allergies and 38 million from migraine and chronic headaches. The food allergy market currently has an estimated value of $6 billion USD. Both applications give the ability to scan a product–s bar code and determine if it is safe for consumption, and if not the apps will recommend a suitable alternative per the user–s specific dietary profile.
SugarChecked identifies four main types of sugars that consumers can avoid, including added sugars, artificial sweeteners, natural low-calorie sweeteners and sugar alcohols. This application is an easy shopping tool for consumers to decipher often-misleading food labels, and receive recommendations for healthier alternative products as they shop in real time.
ContentChecked has created a robust database of allergens, migraine triggers, and food ingredients that directly correlate with food allergies, intolerances, migraines and chronic headaches. There are currently hundreds of thousands of products in its database that is updated regularly. ContentChecked–s applications are highly scalable and can expand into new geographic areas and product categories with limited modifications and investment.
