DELRAY BEACH, FL--(Marketwire - October 6, 2009) - [ Celsius Holdings, Inc. ] (OTCBB: [ CSUH ]) continues to build the scientific portfolio of their calorie-burning brand, [ Celsius® ], with the presentation of a fifth clinical study. The scientifically formulated, calorie-burning beverage not only burns up to 100 or more calories per can, it also enhances the benefits of moderate exercise, by enhancing body composition and improving cardiovascular health, according to the latest independent clinical study, Celsius Holdings, Inc. announced today.

The Metabolic and Body Composition Laboratory of the Department of Health and Exercise Science at the University of Oklahoma recently announced the results of the fifth scientific study of Celsius, showing that pre-workout consumption of Celsius results in improvements in the benefits of exercise among a test group of previously sedentary overweight and obese women subjects. The study showed that when compared to exercise alone, drinking a single 12 oz. can of Celsius per day for 10 weeks prior to a workout resulted in the following benefits:

 -- 46% greater fat loss -- 27% greater muscle mass -- 35% greater endurance performance -- Drinking Celsius with or without exercise resulted in a significant drop in total cholesterol (5 to 13%) and bad LDL cholesterol (12 to 18%). Exercise alone had no effect on blood lipid levels. 

"Our data suggest that consuming a single serving of Celsius prior to working out may significantly enhance the positive adaptations of exercise on body composition and cardiovascular health and fitness in previously sedentary overweight women greater than exercise alone," stated Jeffrey R. Stout, Ph.D., who served as the Chief Researcher of the study. He added, "These results are important due to the fact that these positive results were achieved in sedentary overweight women who are considered at risk for cardiovascular and many other diseases."

Celsius, the Original Calorie Burner, is healthy everyday refreshment that tastes great. Celsius has been scientifically shown to burn up to 100 calories or more per can by raising metabolism and providing sustained energy. Research demonstrates that consuming one Celsius prior to a workout may enhance the benefits of regular exercise, such as cardio fitness, endurance and body composition.
