The Laboratory has been set up as a result of a generous donation from
Herbalife. Its mission is to advance nutritional science by using the most
progressive research and development technologies available.
As a result,
we will lead the way in developing new scientific standards in the field of
nutrition and herbal medicine. State-of-the-art methods will be used to identify
the complex families of active compounds in herbs and to study their actions on
living cells. Our aim is to make a positive difference to people's lives through
herbal approaches to weight management and optimum wellness.
Warm tributes were paid to Mark Hughes' memory by Brian, Carol, Peter Castleman and
Dr. David Heber and the Dean of UCLA were generous in their thanks to Herbalife.
