Bellion Spirits, Chigurupati Technologies, Public Interest Groups Band Together to Challenge Gag Order Regarding NTX Technology
Washington, DC…In response to a gag order issued by the U.S. Treasury’s Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB), two companies and two public interest groups have banded together to challenge the order and file the first ever official health claim petition to the TTB for violating First Amendment constitutional rights and economic liberties.
Bellion Spirits, Chigurupati Technologies and public interest groups The Coalition for Safer Drinking and Ron Paul’s Campaign for Liberty are accusing the TTB of excessive governmental regulations, cronyism and financial gain in the $1.2 trillion a year alcoholic beverages industry.
A press conference planned for Wednesday, April 13, 9:30 a.m., at the National Press Club in Washington DC, will outline the group’s position in opposing the TTB’s ruling.
Chigurupati Technologies and its team of PhD scientists have spent the last decade researching, experimenting and conducting clinical studies to counter the negative health effects of alcohol. Their work has led to the discovery of a proprietary compound, NTX, which proved in clinical testing to protect the liver from potential damage caused by moderate/social alcohol consumption and reduces the amount of DNA damage associated with alcohol ingestion. The TTB, however, has banned these health statements from being disseminated on the label and in the labeling of alcoholic beverages, specifically Bellion Spirits, which uses the NTX technology in the manufacturing of its vodka.
After a brief statement from each speaker (see below) there will be opportunity for questions and interviews following the press conference. Community and civic leaders and other interested VIPs are expected to attend. Attendees will receive press materials, a bottle of Bellion Vodka and a copy of “Fight to Evolve” which delivers the riveting story of NTX, its remarkable inventor, Harsha Chigurupati, and the science that supports the need for more functional alcohol.
Speakers:
• Ian Bress, Chief Financial Officer, Bellion Spirits
• Harsha Chigurupati, founder, Chigurupati Technologies
• Jonathan W. Emord, attorney, Emord & Associates, P.C.
• William Hennessy, spokesperson, The Coalition for Safer Drinking
• Norm Singleton, President, Campaign for Liberty
