Pfizer Inc. (PFE) reported a surge in fourth-quarter profit on a gain from the sale of its nutrition unit, while generic competition for cholesterol-lowering drug Lipitor contributed to a 7% sales decline.

The drug maker's quarterly results exceeded Wall Street expectations, and Pfizer issued an initial 2013 financial forecast that roughly bracketed analysts' current estimates.

Pfizer shares rose 66 cents, or 2.4%, to $27.50, in recent trading and earlier touched a multi-year high. The stock is up 28% over the past 12 months.

Pfizer is trying to bounce back from the late 2011 loss of U.S. exclusivity for its cholesterol-lowering pill Lipitor, which triggered generic competition that eroded sales of what was once the best-selling prescription drug in the world.

The company has tried to overcome the Lipitor loss by expanding sales of other drugs that remain patent-protected, such as the pain drug Lyrica, as well as introducing new products with sizeable market potential.

These include Xeljanz, a new treatment for rheumatoid arthritis that was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in November, and Eliquis, an anticlotting drug co-developed with Bristol-Myers Squibb Co. (BMY) that was cleared by FDA in late December. Analysts expect the drugs to eventually generate billions of dollars in annual sales.

At the same time, Pfizer has taken steps perceived to be "shareholder friendly" over the past two years, including share buybacks, spending cuts, as well as the divestitures of certain non-pharmaceutical assets. Pfizer sold its nutrition business to Nestle for $11.85 billion cash in November, and it will soon stage an initial public offering of up to a 19.8% stake in its animal health unit, Zoetis, with the potential to shed its remaining stake at a later date.

The Zoetis IPO is expected Friday in what would be the largest IPO from a U.S. company since Facebook Inc.'s (FB) last May.

During a conference call Tuesday morning, Pfizer Chief Executive Ian Read reiterated comments suggesting the company could conduct further splits. He said Pfizer was evolving toward two business models, each with separate management: one with patented, innovative drugs and the other with off-patent drugs. He said Pfizer would eventually have to decide whether shareholders want to invest in these as two distinct companies, but that such a decision wasn't a near-term priority.

Mr. Read also said he expected the company to continue to pursue "bolt-on" acquisitions and other business-development deals to supplement the company's internal research-and-development efforts. He didn't, however, set a maximum value for potential deals, and said the company wouldn't rule out any deal that adds to shareholder value.

Pfizer 4th-Quarter Profit Surges Amid Gain From Nutrition Unit Sale

NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwire - Jan 29, 2013) - The nutrition labels on foods are important for dieters who are planning their meals and making healthy choices. For this reason, the makers of Hydroxycut have shared some tips regarding which details provided on nutrition labels should be of particular interest to dieters. These tips are in response to an article, which breaks down what a registered dietitian looks for when choosing her meals.

The article reveals that paying special attention to serving size, grams of saturated and trans fats, and the ingredients are crucial. Serving size is important because portion control is one key to weight loss and many foods measure their nutritional content based on a serving size that is much smaller or even larger than the average person would consume. Saturated and trans fats are substances that should be limited, so instead of looking at how many grams of total fat a food has, people should choose foods that have low saturated and trans fats (as other fats in moderation can be important to a balanced diet). Additionally, by looking at the ingredients, people are able to emphasize whole ingredients in their diet. As such, they can cut down on other unwanted substances. The article explains that people should not always put special emphasis on grams of fat, as discussed, or on daily percentage value.

The makers of Hydroxycut encourage dieters to take the advice set forth in the article, because it provides a great deal of insight into choosing the right foods. In a recent press statement, the makers of Hydroxycut announce: "We are always looking for new ways to help individuals achieve their weight loss goals. In this article, we discover great information regarding how to read a nutrition label so that it can benefit one's dietary efforts. By looking at the right details, people can create a well-rounded, healthy meal plan that fits their individual needs."

ABOUT: Hydroxycut is the number one, best-selling weight-loss supplement brand in America. The key weight-loss ingredients in Pro Clinical Hydroxycut are lady's mantle extract, wild olive extract, komijn extract, and wild mint extract. These ingredients have demonstrated the ability to help reduce BMI and encourage weight loss for participants involved in two clinical studies. In the first study, the average weight loss with these key ingredients was 20.94 pounds over a 12-week period. In the second study, the average weight loss was 16.50 pounds over an 8-week period.All groups involved in these studies followed a reduced-calorie diet.

Hydroxycut is available in several formats, including Pro Clinical Hydroxycut Caffeine Free, Hydroxycut Herbal, and more.

SARASOTA, FL--(Marketwire - Jan 29, 2013) - Environmental toxins are present in nearly everything that people come in contact with, from the air they breathe to the food they eat and the products they use. As such, these toxins have the potential to cause a wide range of illnesses and other medical conditions in the people who are most vulnerable to them. A recent article published by Philly.com reveals a surprising demographic that can suffer tremendously from toxic exposure: newborn babies. The professionals at Nutrition Wellness Center Sarasota explain how children are vulnerable to these toxins before they even enter the world.

According to the article, 10 newborns tested positive for over 200 different synthetic chemicals. Ken Cook, who gave a reportedly passionate speech to a Senate subcommittee on the matter and is the president of a national advocacy group called the Environmental Working Group, comments regarding these children: "Their chemical exposures did not come from the air they breathed, the water they drank, or the food they ate." He continued by saying, "Babies are coming into this world pre-polluted with toxic chemicals."

The odds of this happening may seem slim at first glance, as infants enjoy the protection of the womb before entering the world; however, the professionals at Nutrition Wellness Center understand that the womb is not foolproof and a long list of toxic substances can make its way to a child before it is born.

"Unfortunately, many toxins are passed through the umbilical cord from a mother to her unborn child that have the potential to impact a long list of the body's systems, including the immune system, the endocrine system, and, most importantly, the brain and the rest of the nervous system," comments Dr. James Martin of Nutrition Wellness Center of Sarasota. "Once a child is born they drink more, eat more, and breathe faster than adults by weight, which results in them experiencing heavier exposure to certain toxins. Babies cannot store toxins in their fat cells or excrete them as adults can, and the blood-brain barrier is not fully developed until they are six months of age. As such, infants are much more vulnerable to the ill effects of toxins because their defense systems are not fully developed. The exposure to too many toxins can mean that newborns suffer from developmental delays in virtually all areas of their total growth, as well as hormonal issues."

Dr. Martin and his team encourage individuals to learn more about toxicity and how they can address the specific and non-specific illnesses that such exposure can cause. Screenings for toxic exposure, Dr. Martin asserts, are a great way for individuals to determine if they have come into contact with dangerous substances that could be causing medical concerns.

OMAHA, Neb., Jan. 30, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Complete Nutrition, the fast-growing nutritional supplement retailer known for its consultative approach to health and fitness, announces a partnership with Tampa Bay Buccaneers legend Mike Alstott, marking the company's first national deal with a professional athlete. Alstott will serve as a spokesman and appear in marketing campaigns to promote Complete Nutrition's Mancore line of testosterone-boosting and weight-loss supplements geared toward active men ages 30 to 55.

Throughout a 12-year NFL career, six-time Pro Bowl fullback and 2003 Super Bowl champion Mike "A-Train" Alstott was known for his grit, power and meticulous work ethic that allowed him to run through defenders to reach the end zone. Even in retirement, Alstott continues to train hard and eat healthy, making him an ideal representative of Complete Nutrition's Mancore brand.

Alstott, 39, personally uses the Mancore 3-Pack testosterone-boosting, growth-hormone-enhancing and fat-burning program and reported losing 15 lbs. in five weeks, gaining muscle, sleeping better and having an increased libido. The Bucs' all-time leader in touchdowns says Mancore helps him stay physically fit despite living a full schedule, which involves raising a family, serving as head coach for the Northside Christian high school football team in St. Petersburg, Fla., and being involved in other business ventures. In addition, Alstott champions the all-around wellness of children and families facing life-altering obstacles through the Mike Alstott Family Foundation.

"Men my age don't realize that our testosterone levels are decreasing, but it's a reality that makes staying fit more difficult," said Alstott. "Guys often have a hard time getting over that initial hump to where they truly see results. I've tried a lot of other supplements and had trouble getting past my plateau until Mancore. Since using Mancore, I've trimmed down immensely and my muscles are more defined. People have even told me I look like I'm still in playing shape."

Mancore 3-Pack, the most comprehensive product in the Mancore line, helps men increase muscle mass, strength and energy, as well as burn fat and improve body composition. The exclusive program contains three complementary products: Total Fat Burn, Testosterone Replenish and HGH Night Spray. These are designed to work in tandem, maximizing the effectiveness of each individual product and helping users look lean and fit.

Total Fat Burn, formulated with naturally occurring synephrine HCl, green coffee bean extract and green tea extract, helps improve body composition, boosts metabolism and increases energy. Testosterone Replenish enhances libido and stamina and replenishes youthful hormones with a blend of testosterone support ingredients, including DHEA. The convenient HGH Night Spray, taken before bedtime, increases growth hormone levels by up to 157 percent and improves sleep quality with its key ingredient, melatonin.

"We are honored to have such a storied NFL role model as part of the Complete Nutrition brand," said Amy Bailey, VP of Marketing for Complete Nutrition. "Mike Alstott is a guy the Mancore demographic can relate to and he's a great inspiration for men across the country to get in shape."

Kicking off the partnership, the official Mancore website, MancoreResults.com, features exclusive content of Alstott such as pictures and quotes, and tips from the football legend on diet, nutrition and exercise. Customers can also visit the site to read about the science behind the products and watch a video on Mancore. Other marketing elements of the partnership include a radio campaign with Alstott endorsing the Mancore line and in-store displays featuring the former NFL fullback.

The entire Mancore line, including the Mancore 3-Pack, individual products and the Mancore Muscle Preserve are available at all Complete Nutrition stores. Visit CompleteNutrition.com to find the nearest store and more information.
