RBC Life Sciences Supports Clean Energy by Purchasing Renewable Energy Credits to
Offset 100 Percent of Its Electricity Usage

IRVING, Texas, Jan 12, 2009 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- RBC Life
Sciences (RBCL), a global provider of proprietary nutritional supplements, wound
care and pain management products, is offsetting 100 percent of its electricity
usage for two years as part of a company-wide green initiative.

RBC Life Sciences is purchasing 2,561,550 kilowatt hours of renewable energy
credits, which will help to avoid more than 3.4 million pounds of carbon dioxide
pollution. Over a two-year span, this commitment has an impact comparable to
planting more than 14,000 mature trees and avoiding the pollution associated with
driving 3.4 million miles in an average car.

RBC Life Sciences has also embarked on other energy-saving initiatives. The
company uses recycled paper as cushioning in product shipments, new printer ink
technology that will eliminate hundreds of pounds of used printer cartridges and
special lighting and printing technologies that drastically reduce energy
consumption.

"RBC Life Sciences' commitment to sustainable energy meshes well with the
company's focus on providing nutritional supplements and skin care products that
highlight natural ingredients," said company President and CEO John W. Price.
"This company-wide commitment to reduce our carbon footprint is part of a larger
company effort to promote clean energy projects and help America become less
dependent on fossil fuels."

RBC Life Sciences is purchasing the renewable energy credits from Renewable
Choice Energy, a Colorado-based company that works with the nation's alternative
energy sector. Every credit purchased helps fund new renewable energy projects,
such as wind farms.
