NTB New Tymbal Resources Ltd

Monday's promising results from Amarin's new cholesterol drug led to speculation the company could be a takeover target, but Neptune Technologies & Bioressources Inc. ("Neptune") (NASDAQ: NEPT) (TSX-V: NTB) is aiming for cholesterol/hyperlipidemia's ultimate prize.

Neptune's Omega-3 nutraceutical, Neptune Krill Oil (NKO) has shown efficacy in human trials in three key areas:

1) Triglyceride and good-and-bad-cholesterol management (hyperlipidemia)

2) Inflammation/Arthritis

3) Adult ADHD. A 120-patient human trial showed that NKO reduced LDL (bad cholesterol) by 33.9%, reduced triglycerides by 11.5%, and increased HDL (good cholesterol) by 43.3%. Anyone who knows the cholesterol/hyperlipidemia space knows that finding a single substance that has these effects (with NO toxicity) is like finding the Holy Grail -- and NKO has no toxicity (it has GRAS status from the FDA).

Recently named a finalist for the 2011 Nutraceutical & Business Technology (NBT) Awards in the category of Outstanding Application in Health Management, Neptune has a wide variety of patented substances and processes in 3 different markets: dietary supplements (nutraceuticals); food/beverage ingredients; and pharmaceuticals.

In addition, Neptune Krill Oil, which appears to be the best source of Omega-3s available today, has multiple blockbuster applications in drug development, yet it avoids the classic pitfall of a cash-burning biotech (running out of money) because Neptune is already generating cash flow and earnings from the sale of their nutraceutical Omega-3 product, Neptune Krill Oil (NKO), while the subsidiary developing the cardiovascular drugs, Acasti Pharma, is scheduled to start generating revenues from the sales of its Medical Food and OTC products in the very near term.

A recent report on the company, their human trials with Krill Oil as well as the cash flow and earnings generating core that gives the stock more substance than most biotechs is now available at:
