BROOKFIELD, WI / ACCESSWIRE / March 24, 2015 / Trident Brands Incorporated (Trident) (OTCQB: TDNT) today announced that it has acquired, through a licensing agreement with DSM, the exclusive global rights to Brain Armor(R) , a plant-based DHA supplement designed specifically for the needs of athletes. Available for sale online at www.brain-armor.com, Brain Armor(R) delivers 1,050 mg of life's DHA(R) per serving and helps ensure the athlete has a sufficient level of this important omega-3 fatty acid to support brain and cardiovascular health.

DHA is incorporated into the membrane of every cell in the body and is especially concentrated in the gray matter of the brain, the retina of the eyes and heart tissue. DHA represents 97 percent of the omega-3s in the brain.

Michael Browne, Trident president, explains: "There is a growing consensus among sports and health experts that many high-energy sports activities involve risk to the brain. There are a number of studies exploring how the intake of omega-3's supports healthy brain function. The Brain Armor brand can play a role in this important area of wellness ranging from serious athletes to the average person. We aim to fully develop this unique brand through a broad range of research supported initiatives, marketing and publicity efforts, along with new product formats that make it easy for consumers to incorporate Brain Armor into an active lifestyle."

"DSM is pleased to work with Trident to further develop Brain Armor into a powerful nutrition brand," said Will Black, vice president of marketing at DSM Nutritional Products. "Brain Armor is part of our company legacy of innovation; its point of difference - life'sDHA - gives it a unique and compelling consumer benefit. We look forward to seeing it reach its full potential."
