Brooklyn, New York, Liberia – September 18, 2015 /PressCable/ —

Imani House Inc announced today that $18 will provide medicine for 650 Patients in South Africa.

The owner, Mrs. Bisi Ideraabdullah, says that what seems miniscule amount of money in USA, can make a huge difference in Liberia, country that ranks among the top twenty nations with the highest rates of child and maternal mortality in the world. For example, $10 will buy care for 5 mothers, $18 will provide medicine for 650 patients and $75 will provide transportation for malarial medications and other medications for 3 months. $250 will provide medicines for two Weeks for 650 Patients.

UNICEF’s State of the World’s Children (2014) stated that the child mortality rate (under 5 years) in Liberia was 55 deaths per 1,000 live births. The Imani House creation – Jahtondo Town Maternal and Child Health Clinic provides integrated health services for women and children, as well as immunization programs. By partnering with the Ministry of Health and other governmental agencies and NGOs they have strengthened the capacity to administer health care services.

The story of Imani House charity started in 1982. While traveling on vacation with her family in Charleston South Carolina, Mrs. Bisi was a young mother pregnant with her fifth child. She went into labor and went to a local hospital. Even though her water had broken and she was in the late stages of labor, she was turned away, refused all medical care because she did not have insurance. They desperately drove to another hospital, time ticking away. She lost the baby. It made a strong influence on Mrs. Bisi Ideraabdullah. Bisi vowed that this should never happen to another mother and child.She returned to live in Liberia and started the organization dedicated to help the mothers, kids and youth people to get educational and medical services during tough economic times in Liberia. The other part of the charity today works with immigrant families in Brooklyn, New York, helping them develop their skills, integrate into society and thrive economically. Every year the mission helps over 20000 people in both countries.

London, United Kingdom – September 18, 2015 /MarketersMedia/ —

Enterprise Investment Schemes are designed to help small and medium sized businesses grow, encouraging investors by offering a range of tax relief options. Seed Enterprise Investment Schemes offer even more relief to help small, early-stage companies raise equity finance to get their business underway. Kuber Ventures is the only independent platform for such investments in the UK, and has recently announced that they already has twelve funds on the platform. They are looking to expand, and have published details about the tax incentives to encourage more new investors.

Kuber Ventures has posted new editorials on SEIS and EIS relief benefits, giving a top line summary of the percentages and amounts before looking at what each relief really means to investors in great detail for each of the different funds. The guide aims to make the advantages of SEIS and EIS funds completely transparent, so investors can feel confident in investing via Kuber.

A spokesperson for Kuber Ventures explained, “We decided it was time to help advisers who had never considered EIS or SEIS before to discover the advantages for themselves, through our website. We have successfully worked with those who have already seized that opportunity for years, but we are now looking to convert more advisers to these particular forms of investment. They offer huge benefits to both parties, and help the economy strengthen and grow through support of small business. It is an exciting time to get involved.”

Unity Connected Solutions announces the release of the first two products in its “Unity Secure Solutions” line.

Toronto, Canada – September 18, 2015 /MarketersMedia/ —

Unity Connected Solutions (www.UnityConnected.com), the leader in unified communications, data networks, and video collaboration, is announcing the launch of two new network security products under its “Unity Secure Solutions” banner.

Two new products designed for network security have been released by Unity Connected Solutions as part of its new “Unity Secure Solutions” product line. The first of what is hoped to be many solutions, Unity Secure Firewall and Unity Secure Gateway are both automated and managed by experts who will monitor the systems for each client.

“Unity Connected Solutions is launching a suite of new network security products to better protect our customers,” says Craig Sherry, Product Manager at Unity Connected Solutions. “Security threats are a big deal for even the most sophisticated networks, and right now, the most effective means of dealing with these threats is to have an automated system in place to react once these threats strike.”

Each of these products comes with two options. For Unity Secure Firewall, there’s Firewall Essential, wherein a secure router is installed between the Internet connection and local network. The second option is Firewall Ultimate, in which additional services such as antivirus protection and content filtering are included in the package.

Unity Secure Gateway also comes in Essential and Ultimate packages. The Essential option runs all traffic through the Unity Secure datacentre, cleans it, and then delivers the traffic through the Unity Secured Network back to the local router, while the Ultimate package features the above, plus even more security options.

“With over 40% of companies experiencing some kind of network breach over the past year, 60% of those breaches happening in one minute or less, network security is a concern organizations need to take seriously,” Sherry adds.

Unity Connected Solutions will be launching more security solutions in the future, including Unity Secure SIP and Unity Lync Integration. Both are expected to be ready soon.

“Our goal is to provide better network security services at lower costs to help supplement our communication based products. This is just beginning of that commitment and our clients can expect a lot more in the very near future.”

The Canadian Institute of Hair and Scalp Experts, a Toronto-based organization offering hair loss treatment services, is weighing in on a new study explaining the growth-promoting effects of caffeine on human hair follicles.

Mississauga, Canada – September 18, 2015 /MarketersMedia/ —

The Canadian Institute of Hair and Scalp Specialists (www.CanadianHair.ca), a Toronto-based organization that offers hair loss treatment services, is weighing in on a new study explaining the growth-promoting effects of caffeine on human hair follicles.

Researchers at the University of Lubeck in Germany treated male and female human hairs with testosterone and caffeine in a test tube. They discovered that this not only made the hair grow faster, but the caffeine counteracted the effect of testosterone in causing baldness. (Source: Fischer, T.W., et al., “Differential effects of caffeine on hair shaft elongation, matrix and outer root sheath keratinocyte proliferation, and transforming growth factor-β2/insulin-like growth factor-1-mediated regulation of the hair cycle in male and female human hair follicles in vitro,” British Journal of Dermatology, published online October 30, 2014; http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/bjd.13114/abstract.)

“For many people, having that first cup of coffee in the morning gives them a much-needed kick-start to the day,” says Ken Robson, founder of the Canadian Institute of Hair and Scalp Specialists. “The study may be in its preliminary stages, but a hair growth product that contains caffeine, such as shampoo, could be ideal for people who are going bald.”

Robson notes that a traditional hair loss treatment service is still the best option for people who have already lost their hair as a caffeine-based shampoo can only keep the hair roots active, but can’t do much for hair that is already lost.

“Science is advancing when it comes to combatting hair loss,” says Robson. “Although the study does show how caffeine can be beneficial in hair retention products, we recommend sticking to the proven methods for stimulating hair growth.”

The Canadian Institute of Hair and Scalp Specialists helps men and women who are looking for ways to restore their hair, including hair transplant surgery and hair systems. For more information, visit http://www.canadianhair.ca

Bel Marra Health is weighing in on studies showing that sugar is increasingly causing liver failure.

Toronto, Canada – September 18, 2015 /MarketersMedia/ —

Bel Marra Health (www.BelMarraHealth.com), a company that offers high-quality, specially formulated vitamins and nutritional supplements, is weighing in on reports that claim sugar is becoming an increasing cause of liver failure.

It has long been known that the overconsumption of alcohol is the leading cause of liver failure, but slowly creeping up as the leading cause of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is none other than sugar.

“As obesity and diabetes continue to rise, so do the cases of NAFLD,” says Dr. Victor Marchione, spokesperson for Bel Marra Health. “This is a disease that affects 30% of Americans, a significant percentage of a large population, so methods need to be found to get this problem under control.”

People often ignore, or don’t recognize, the association between weight gain and liver failure. However, a study conducted in April showed that clients who gained only two percent fat over a three-week period increased their liver fat by 27%. That much fat being added to a liver in such a short period of time can, and often does, have a major impact on health, regardless of alcohol consumption and diet. (Source: Alexander, A., “How Sugar Keeps Your Body From Detoxing Naturally,” Prevention website, April 13, 2015; http://www.prevention.com/health/how-sugar-damages-your-liver.)

“The general public has to make a major shift in thinking if there is any hope of reversing the current trend,” Dr. Marchione adds. “People look strictly at alcohol when they think of the health of their liver, but thanks to sugar, a poor diet is proving just as deadly.”

The consumption of sugar goes beyond increasing the chances of NAFLD; it also leads to type-3 diabetes, depression, weight gain, and even poor skin. Sugar consumption can also become addictive, causing overeating, which in turn leads to many other negative and harmful issues. (Source: Zerbe, L., “11 Weird Things Sugar Is Doing to Your Body,” Rodale Wellness website, November 11, 2013; http://www.rodalewellness.com/health/sugar-toxic?cid=isynd_PV_0415.)

“People need to understand the implications of eating excess sugar. The negative effects are so numerous that it becomes hard to reverse some of the symptoms,” Dr. Marchione concludes. “As far as the liver goes, once cirrhosis—a scarring of the liver—occurs, the effects are irreversible.”

To combat the increase in NAFLD, Dr. Marchione recommends that people eat much healthier diets, reduce the amount of sugar being consumed, exercise regularly, and do their best to maintain a healthy weight.

Princeview Dental weighs in on a report from the British Medical Journal that reveals that oral health and general health are linked.

Etobicoke, Canada – September 18, 2015 /MarketersMedia/ —

Etobicoke, Canada, September 18, 2015 – Princeview Dental (www.PrinceviewDental.com), a premier dental clinic in Etobicoke, is weighing in on a recent study that reveals how oral health impacts an individual’s overall health.

Published in the British Medical Journal, the study found that oral hygiene doesn’t just affect one’s teeth; if an individual doesn’t practice good oral health care, they may be at risk for a variety of health concerns, including heart disease, cancer, arthritis, and various inflammatory diseases. (Source: Hermiston, N., “Dental care important for general health,” Magnet web site, July 16, 2015; http://www.edenmagnet.com.au/story/2342435/dental-care-important-for-general-health/?cs=4090.)

“If a patient has poor oral health, he or she may develop periodontitis and other chronic inflammatory oral diseases,” says Dr. Janice Mummery, a Toronto dentist and founder of Princeview Dental. “According to this study’s findings, not brushing and flossing daily and skipping regular visits with the dentist can certainly lead to a variety of health problems, in addition to tooth decay and gum disease.”

As Dr. Mummery notes, according to the study’s findings, there is a link between poor oral health and poor overall health. If a patient suffers from periodontitis, bacteria can become embedded under the gums, which in turn can lead to tooth decay and loss. But that bacteria can also enter the blood stream, leading to further health issues throughout the body. (Source: Ibid.)

“Because these health concerns can take some time to develop, they’re usually only found in adults,” Dr. Mummery continues. “However, one of the easiest ways to predict a patient’s risk for gum disease is poor oral hygiene at a young age. Ensuring children understand the importance of dental health at a young age can help prevent general health concerns into adulthood.”

Many dentists note that one of the fastest ways to spot gingivitis is bleeding gums when brushing. If detected early through a dental check-up, which should be scheduled every six to eight months according to Dr. Mummery’s recommendations, gingivitis can be treated easily. It can also be prevented through regular flossing, thorough brushing, and consistent check-ups.

“The findings of this study only serve to reinforce what dentists have been telling patients for years—that practicing good oral hygiene is not only good for their teeth, but for the rest of their body as well,” concludes Dr. Mummery. “For adults, it’s never too late to start practicing good oral hygiene. Booking an appointment with a dentist who can help an individual determine the weak points in their oral hygiene routine is a good start and a sure way to set the body on a path to better health.”

Princeview Dental is currently welcoming new patients. To book an appointment or for more oral health care advice, visit their offices on the Kingsway in Toronto or see the company’s web site at http://www.princeviewdental.com.
