Scott HannanGrowing up in British Columbia, Canada, NHL star defenseman Scott Hannan could not have foreseen his incredible success. Scott began playing hockey at the early age of 5 in his hometown of Surrey, BC.
About 2002, Scott was introduced to GNLD and the benefits of supplementing his diet with key nutrients found only in GNLD products. Scott started with PhytoDefense and later added more products as he discovered other gaps in his diet. We asked Scott about using GNLD products and what he currently takes.
"When I was first introduced to GNLD, I was a little into nutrition but only to taking a multi-vitamin every once in a while. What attracted me was the accessibility; it's so easy to carry around. You just throw the packets in your bag and it's easy to take. The difference I noticed was on the road, in a plane, a hotel room, or a bus and the dressing room ..... one guy gets sick and you avoid hims so he gets kind of isolated. I've just been able to keep my immune system up, which is just one of the most important things during the season. If you miss a game, it just hurts the team. You just have to keep your energy levels up. I liked the product Phyto so much, I've added Vitamin C, Vitamin E, Omega III Plus, Tre-en-en, Cal-Mag, Stress 30, Liver Plus C ..... the list goes on and on. I've added GR2 Protein as well."
Commonly found in GNLD are people sharing the products after having positive results themselves. Scott is no different. He shared GNLD with his San Jose teammates last year. The Sharks began using GNLD last season and continue to use them today. But Scott has not stopped there. After signing as a free agent with the Colorado Avalanche -- a four-year contract for $18 million -- he has started sharing GNLD with his new teammates. Additionally, Scott has picked up where he left off in San Jose, leading the Avalanche in even-strength ice time this season.
Over his career, Scott has achieved some amazing honors. In 2004, Wayne Gretzky invited Scott to play for Team Canada at the World Cup of Hockey, where Scott and Team Canada went on to win the World Cup. In 2005, Scott was again invited to play for Team Canada at the World Championships of Hockey, where he took home the silver medal.
"These products have helped me achieve my goals," Scott explains simply. "When you start the season, the goal is to stay healthy, keep your energy levels high, and not lose the strength and endurance you build over the summer. By using GNLD products, I'm able to perform at my peak the entire season."
It is a privilege to share Scott Hannan's story with you, and we would like to thank him for being such a great ambassador for GNLD.
