Historical
Moment
Held on campus at Stanford University for the
first time on April 10, 2001, this significant lecture series
was the largest event of its kind in the history of Stanford
Medical Center. |
An
Exciting Future
GNLD’s Stanford partnership is only beginning.
The ongoing Arthur Furst Lecture Series, which honors the life
work of GNLD Scientific Advisory Board Founder Dr. Furst, provides
a forum for distinguished scientists, doctors, and medical professors
to present the very latest disease-prevention research to the
next generation of health care professionals. |
A Special Man
Throughout
Dr. Arthur Furst’s long, distinguished career, he has
been recognized as one of the most brilliant minds in the field
of disease prevention. A pioneer of cancer research, Dr. Furst
established the Cancer Chemotherapy Laboratories many years
ago while Professor of Medicinal Chemistry at the Stanford School
of Medicine. Among Dr. Furst's many accomplishments is his development
of the world’s first antioxidant product back in the 1970's,
at GNLD International.
A Unique Company
The Arthur Furst Lecture Series is just one more way GNLD is
changing the face of health care and disease prevention through
nutrition, and it is another example of GNLD’s reputation
in the scientific, business, and academic communities. Distributors
and customers alike can be proud of this GNLD Difference! |

"GNLD teaches tomorrow's
about nutrition and disease prevention" |
|
STANFORD UNIVERSITY — GNLD, one of the world’s
oldest, most respected nutritional companies, has partnered with
The Health Library at Stanford to teach tomorrow’s doctors
about the critical role of nutrition in disease prevention.
More than 800 of the nation’s leading
doctors, |
|
researchers, medical students, scientists, and health
professionals attended GNLD’s first annual Arthur Furst
Lecture Series on Nutrition and Disease Prevention at Stanford
to learn how good nutrition can literally add years to one’s
life.
It’s rare for a private health and nutrition
company to be embraced with a unique university partnership
such as this. A company must first be recognized as an authority
in its industry, and accepted as a responsible, scientifically
sound and ethically strong organization.
Barbara Ralston, director of the Health Library
at Stanford, put into words the high esteem Stanford holds GNLD,
“We’re proud to partner with a top-notch company,
GNLD International, to present this extraordinary academic education
program. GNLD researches the science of, and produces, food
supplements, and has done so with the highest degree of scientific
and ethical integrity for 43 years.”
The important lecture series was established
in honor of Arthur Furst, Ph.D., Sc.D., senior member of GNLD’s
Scientific Advisory Board, eminent research chemist, toxicologist,
pioneer, professor, international
lecturer, and recipient of numerous distinguished honors and
awards.
“GNLD
is proud and appreciative of this opportunity,” says John
Miller, GNLD’s International Vice President of Science
and Technology.

“We
look forward to continuing our relationship with Stanford
far into the future. GNLD has a deep and abiding respect for
this institution and its mission in the world, and we’re
proud that Stanford has chosen to partner with GNLD.”
Through
the years, Dr. Furst has played a major role in advancing
GNLD’s scientific leadership in the nutrition industry.
GNLD’s request that this lecture series be named in
his honor was a token of their appreciation.
“One
of Dr. Furst’s greatest passions is to help people live
longer, healthier lives”, noted Miller, “Through
the Arthur Furst Lecture Series on Nutrition and Disease Prevention,
Dr. Furst’s pursuit of that passion can continue for
generations to come.”
Not
too many years ago, the nutritional supplement industry was
regarded by the medical and health care community as purveyors
of unsubstantiated hype. Today nutritional supplementation
is a well accepted dietary practice, and GNLD is increasingly
recognized as the scientific leader.
