Media references
- Sustagen received a publicity boost when, on the advice of a nutritionist, it was one of the items sent through a pipe to trapped miners Brant Webb and Todd Russell in the 2006 Beaconsfield mine collapse.[3] Russell, however, later joked to Eddie McGuire: "That Sustagen, I wouldn't feed it to my dog."[4] Referring to the fact that they received the hospital grade version of the product, which is more nutritious.
- Sustagen, in 2006 initialised a sponsorship deal with the Austereo radio network, (the forerunner of what is now Southern Cross Austereo) in Australia that promoted the brand on podcasts of the network's radio programmes.[5]
