Every year, cold and flu season inevitably takes a toll on workplace attendance, productivity and medical claim costs. Earlier this year, the City of Ankeny, IA, decided to get proactive by enlisting the assistance of local nutrition ingredient supplier, Embria Health Sciences, to help enhance the City’s existing employee wellness program.
Encouraging the wellness of its city employees is not something Ankeny City officials take lightly. Located just north of Iowa’s capital city of Des Moines, Ankeny is the fastest growing city in Iowa and has a current population of more than 45,000. It was named one of the “Top 100 Places to Live” by Money Magazine and Family Circle Magazine’s “Top 10 Best Towns for Families.”
Leaders in Ankeny created a new wellness program initiative for city employees over the course of six months during cold/flu season. The initiative entailed taking a supplement formulated with Embria Health Sciences’ flagship ingredient EpiCor, a natural immune health supplement that contains protein, fiber, vitamins, minerals, amino acid
