NEW YORK, July 5, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Grandparents.com GPCM and its benefits organization, the American Grandparents Association (AGA), announced today an exclusive relationship with Thorne Research, the country's leading nutritional supplement manufacturer.

This venture offers grandparents.com users and AGA members a special discount on all Thorne Research nutritional supplement products because of both companies' commitment to senior health. The relationship begins with the special offer and continues to add savings with additional rebates when the AGA Grand Card is launched in the second half of 2016.

"This partnership will create meaningful value for consumers," according to AGA Chairman and CEO Steve Leber. "We chose Thorne Research because they are the pre-eminent science-backed, medical community-endorsed nutritional supplement manufacturer dedicated to America's health, especially our aging population so they can live their best lives."

In addition to the special discount, Premium $15.00 AGA members will also enjoy significant cash-back rebates on their Grand Card—a universal debit card all members will receive that bundles all marketplace rebates on one card.

"Our partnership addresses a great need on the part of boomers and seniors," said Paul Jacobson, CEO of Thorne Research.

We are honored to be working with the AGA to provide nutritional supplements that are scientifically formulated, rigorously studied, and clinically researched for optimum health."
