David Stephan’s Story: A Fight for Health Freedom

The Stephan family’s journey began more than two decades ago when they developed EMPowerplus, a groundbreaking micronutrient supplement designed to support mental health naturally. After seeing extraordinary improvements in their own family members — particularly in managing bipolar disorder — they committed themselves to making this solution available to others in need.

However, their success soon put them in the crosshairs of Health Canada, which attempted to classify EMPowerplus as an unauthorized drug. Despite the fact that thousands of Canadians were benefiting from the supplement, Health Canada launched enforcement actions to try and remove it from the market.

In a hard-fought legal battle, the Stephan family prevailed in court, with the judge recognizing that TrueHope had saved lives and that Health Canada’s actions were unjustified. But the fight didn’t end there. In the years that followed, David and his family endured ongoing legal persecution, including a highly publicized and painful court case surrounding the tragic passing of their young son, Ezekiel.

Their story is one of resilience, faith, and the unwavering belief in the right of Canadians to choose natural health solutions without fear of government overreach.

About the Movie: Epiphany – The Truehope Story

The Stephan family’s incredible journey is now featured in the new documentary film Epiphany: The Truehope Story, directed by Todd Harris. The movie dives deep into their struggles, the legal attacks they faced, and the broader issues of health freedom in Canada.

Epiphany exposes how bureaucratic overreach can endanger innovation, silence alternative voices, and, most importantly, impact the lives of countless Canadians searching for real answers outside of the pharmaceutical model. It is a powerful, emotional, and inspiring film that sheds light on a story the mainstream media has largely ignored or distorted.
