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. Russell, however, later joked to Eddie McGuire: "That Sustagen, I wouldn't feed it to my dog." Referring to the fact that they received the hospital grade version of the product, which is more nutritious.
 * Sustagen have a sponsorship deal with the Austereo radio network in Australia that promotes the brand on podcasts of the network's radio programmes.
