Product Line:
EHP Products offers a premier specialty line of CMO products. EHP is proud to be the only marketer of 40 percent CMO oil in the form of lotion, cream, and liquids to manufacturers and health food stores, and to physicians in the form of softgels. EHP’s trademarked name for its CMO products is Myristin.

Myristin softgels contain 260 mg of elemental CMO, the most by far of any CMO product available for health food store sales. Myristin softgels can be accompanied by two companion products, Myrist-Aid and Myristin Topical CMO Cream. Myrist-Aid is a glucosamine/MSM formulation that also contains lecithin and lipase to help with digestion and absorption of CMO. With 5 percent CMO, Myristin Topical Cream contains the most CMO of any cream on the market. The smooth formulation of Myristin Topical Cream in a liposomal base with 1.25 percent menthol makes it a favorite for joint care.

Other CMO products available from EHP are bulk quantities of 40 percent CMO wax, 28 percent CMO in olive oil, 20 percent CMO powder, 10 percent CMO powder, and a genuine completely vegetable source 15 percent CMO wax. EHP also offers its 260 mg elemental CMO softgels and 110 mg CMO powder in bulk quantities.

Company History:
Harry W. Diehl discovered cetyl myristoleate (CMO) in 1964, but as a chemist he was unaware of how to market dietary supplements. While he received two patents on his discovery of CMO, (1977 and 1996), he did not bring the product onto the national health food market himself. Instead, he asked his daughter, Elaine Diehl Parrish, to form a company for that purpose.

EHP Products was incorporated in 1995 to fulfill Diehl’s dream of making his great discovery available to anyone who wanted it. EHP’s first sales of CMO were in 1996, and the company is now celebrating its tenth anniversary.

EHP Products, Inc. gratefully acknowledges the contributions of Harry W. Diehl to the health food industry through his discovery of CMO. Diehl died after a short illness in Charlottesville, VA on Dec. 22, 1999 at the age of 89. He continued to work on CMO and similar compounds up until the time of his death.
