Power Crunch Partners with Dr. Oz's HealthCorps®

December 12, 2014
Power Crunch, an innovative line of great-tasting protein bars, powders and ready-to-drink shakes, is partnering with HealthCorps®, a nonprofit founded by heart surgeon and television show host Dr. Mehmet Oz and his wife Lisa. HealthCorps was designed to teach kids about the benefits of proper nutrition, exercise and mental resiliency. As the "Einstein of Protein," Power Crunch will not only sponsor the HealthCorps program in Southern California's Valley High School in Santa Ana, it will also share its important research on protein and micronutrients with the HealthCorps curriculum team.  

Power Crunch CEO Kevin Lawrence, a former world-class body builder who developed Power Crunch in response to his child’s nutrition medical crisis, will participate as a protein expert in HealthCorps’ Coordinator training, which impacts 300,000 students across America. Power Crunch products will also be featured in multiple HealthCorps in-school and community activities in order to give students examples of affordable, beneficial protein sources they can access throughout their day.

HealthCorps recruits recent college graduates to educate students in high-need high schools across the country on health and wellness. HealthCorps will feature Power Crunch in its school- and community-focused programs, including the organization’s two flagship “Highway to Health” festivals in New York and Sacramento, as well as health fairs hosted at participating schools.
