Italian Volcano® Blood Orange Juice: Super-Premium Juice that Delivers both Powerful Antioxidants and Vitamin C

Dream Foods International, LLC (www. dreamfoods. com), a specialized importer of Sicilian not-from-concentrate citrus varietal juices, releases important information about the health benefits and high antioxidants in its Italian Volcano® brand of organic blood orange juice that sets it apart from both other orange and super-premium juices.

Santa Monica, CA (PRWEB) September 16, 2008

Dream Foods International, LLC (www. dreamfoods. com), a specialized importer of Sicilian not-from-concentrate citrus varietal juices, releases important information about the health benefits and high antioxidants in its Italian Volcano® brand of organic blood orange juice that sets it apart from both other orange and super-premium juices.

Antioxidants and Vitamin C: A Powerful Combination
Italian Volcano® Blood Orange juice has both powerful antioxidants, which traditional original juice lacks, and equally high amounts of Vitamin C, which beverages like pomegranate and acai juice, do not contain. Recent studies have also shown that antioxidants play an important role of Vitamin C absorption. "This juice offers a healthy union of antioxidants and Vitamin C in one bottle. Along with delicious taste, our Italian Volcano® Blood Orange juice is an excellent way to celebrate good health," declared Kahane.

"Unlike traditional orange, blood oranges are rich in antioxidants, crucial properties that have been shown to aid in the prevention of inflammatory diseases while containing essential vitamins and minerals. Our Italian Volcano® brand of organic blood orange juice also contains components called phytochemicals, which include polyphenol antioxidants: these protective agents insulate the blood oranges from enemies like insects, bacteria, and fungi. Italian blood oranges have especially high levels of antioxidants because of the distinct climate near the Mount Etna Volcano where we harvest our juice," said Adriana Kahane, CEO and Founder of Dream Foods International, LLC. "The vibrant color of blood oranges - the rich redness of each bottle of our Italian Volcano® juice - is the result of anthocyanins (which give it red pigment), which many scientists believe increases wellness and longevity. "

Additional Health Benefits of Italian Volcano® Blood Orange Juice
ο High in antioxidants
ο High in potassium
ο Low sodium
ο Low fat
ο High in vitamin C and iron

This 100% USDA organic juices, which are available in 750ml glass bottles and have a suggested retail of $5.49. Consumers may purchase this line of juices in supermarket produce departments and at select natural food specialty stores.

Birmingham Vascular Surgeon, Dr. John Kingsley to Receive Award From VNUS Medical Technologies

Birmingham Vascular Surgeon, Dr. John Kingsley to Receive Award From VNUS Medical Technologies

John Kingsley, M. D.,F. A.C. S.,R. V.T., will be presented with an award for the completion of 500 VNUS procedures by VNUS Medical Technologies on Friday morning, January 28, 2005 at 8:00 am at the Alabama Vascular & Vein Center.

Birmingham, AL (PRWEB) January 26, 2005

Board certified by the American Board of Surgery in both Vascular and General Surgery, Kingsley has been practicing his specialty for over 20 years, and is an acknowledged expert in vein disorder problems, such as varicose veins and the latest methods to treat vein insufficiency and spider vein problems. He began the study of vascular ultrasound when this technology was invented in the early 1980's. He has written and lectured to peer societies and publications regarding ultrasound of the arteries and veins.

The award to be presented will acknowledge Dr. KingsleyÂ’s significant contribution in the adoption and use of the VNUS Closure system for the treatment of saphenous vein problems.

Dr. Kingsley grew up in Pensacola, Florida. He was educated in Florida and in the Navy. He moved to Alabama in 1992 and later accepted a teaching position with the Carraway clinic in Birmingham. Dr. Kingsley has a Bachelor of Science and Doctor of Medicine Degrees from the University of Florida, He completed his surgery training at the Bethesda Naval Hospital in Bethesda Maryland.

He is doubly Board Certified by the American Board of Surgery in both General Surgery and Vascular Surgery.

He is one of approximately 3500 surgeons in the U. S. to have achieved Certification in Vascular Surgery, and one of about 1000 to have successfully completed the Vascular re-certification examinations. Dr. Kingsley is also an RVT, having completed the examinations for Registered Vascular Technology by the American Registry of Diagnostic Medical Sonographers.

Dr. Kingsley is a member of the Medical Staffs of several Birmingham area hospitals. These include Brookwood Medical Center, Carraway Medical Center, and Shelby Baptist Medical Center among others.

Dr. Kingsley was recently selected one of the top surgeons in America, as published in the book "Guide to America's Top Surgeons." The book is published by the Consumers' Research Council of America; a Washington, D. C. based research organization.

About the VNUS Closure Procedure

The VNUS (pronounced venous) ClosureÃ’ procedure is a minimally invasive technology for treating superficial venous reflux, the underlying cause of many varicose vein problems, which are painful and unattractive.

According to the Handbook of Venous Disorders, 20-25 million Americans are afflicted with varicose veins. A leading cause of this medical condition is venous reflux disease caused by incompetent or “leaky” valves in the great saphenous vein running from groin to ankle in each leg. When vein valves deteriorate, blood flows backward in the veins (venous reflux) instead of towards the heart. This causes increased pressure in leg veins that often leads to leg pain, swelling, leg fatigue, varicose veins and even skin ulceration. Varicose veins frequently force people to dramatically change their lifestyle, especially when they have a standing profession and can no longer tolerate being on their feet all day. Market research indicates that over 2 million workdays are lost annually in the US and $1.4 billion is spent each year on this common medical condition.

Until the Closure system was developed and received clearance to market in the US in March 1999, physicians who wanted to address venous reflux and the underlying cause of leg swelling, pain and varicose veins, often elected to remove or "strip" the saphenous vein. Doctors would make an incision in the groin and a second incision below the knee or ankle, tie off the vein, then remove it with a long, surgical instrument extending inside the leg to the knee. The resulting postoperative convalescence lasted weeks and entailed significant bruising and discomfort. This procedure is still widely done.

Dr. Kingsley is an experienced Vascular Surgeon who routinely performs the Closure procedure. He is articulate, telegenic and has no financial interest in the Closure technology. He has done more than 500 Closure cases.

Worldwide more than 75,000 cases have been performed. The procedure is widely embraced by vascular surgeons and is reimbursed by most insurance companies.

The Closure procedure has been the subject of numerous studies and journal articles. The results from a peer reviewed, multi-center randomized trial comparing recovery rates and quality of life between patients treated with conventional varicose vein stripping surgery and the Closure procedure (radiofrequency vein ablation), appeared in the August 2003 edition of the Journal of Vascular Surgery. This is the third randomized trial showing that the Closure procedure resulted in:

Less post-operative recuperation time Faster return to work and normal activities Less post-operative pain and limitation of physical activity

What has been confirmed again and again is that a physician can now make a single, small puncture near the knee and insert the slender Closure catheter into the saphenous vein running from knee to groin. The catheter is then positioned near the groin, energized with a radiofrequency generator and slowly withdrawn, sealing the vein shut. Swelling, bruising and pain are virtually eliminated in this outpatient procedure. Most patients return to normal activity within a day, as the latest research confirmed.

Best of all, once a defective saphenous vein is sealed shut, blood flow immediately diverts to healthy veins with good valves, and cosmetic issues are much easier to address.

For Further Information including interview opportunities with Dr. Kingsley and patients who have been treated using this procedure, broadcast quality animated video describing the procedures, and further information, please contact John Jenkins at edgemarketing Inc., 205-424-8840

Alan King Launches New Web Site About Pain Management

Alan King Launches New Web Site About Pain Management

Alan King's books on pain management using acupuncture and TENS, or Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation, are available at http://www. alanking. net.

Saltburn, North Yorkshire, UK (PRWEB) March 24, 2005 -

– Physiotherapist and pain management specialist Alan King has launched a new Web site at http://www. alanking. net (http://www. alanking. net) on managing pain with acupuncture and TENS, or Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation.

King has written several books and guides about TENS for both health professionals and people with no medical experience and regularly hosts pain management workshops at hospitals and clinics in the United Kingdom.

He is next scheduled to facilitate a “Study Day on Pain Management using TENS” April 5 for the staff at Prince Charles Hospital in Merthyr Tydfil, in Wales.

“People who treat pain as health professionals and those who suffer from pain require different levels of knowledge,” said King, a chartered physiotherapist with a practice in Saltburn, North Yorkshire. “So I have written separate books for laymen and professionals and offer them on my new Web site.”

His books include “King’s Guide to TENS;” “Guide to TENS for Health Professionals;” “Non Invasive Acupuncture for Everyone;” and “Pocket Book of Acupuncture Points.”

The books are useful either as a complete guide or as a reference for specific points of pain and their management. “It makes sense to read the appropriate guide in its entirety and note any precautions before undertaking any of the techniques involved,” King says.

Western style acupuncturists believe that acupuncture works as a pain management tool by stimulating parts of the nervous system and brain to block pain or to encourage the formation and release of the body's own pain blocking chemicals.

TENS also works to stimulate the bodyÂ’s natural pain killers. It works with a small, battery-powered TENS unit to produce a small electric current on the skin. It manages pain by 'blocking' the pain messages as they enter the spinal cord or by stimulating nerves which carry messages up the spine to areas of the brain.

“TENS is not a cure for pain,” King adds. Instead, people who use the TENS unit can gain control of their pain and get back to a normal life.

“King's Guide to TENS” is the most popular of the books for people with no previous medical knowledge, offering an illustrated and simple step-by-step guide to managing pain using a TENS unit. The second edition, published in 2001, is available at http://www. alanking. net (http://www. alanking. net) and at online bookstores.

Reimage Named 'Cool Vendor' by Leading Industry Analyst Firm

Reimage Named 'Cool Vendor' by Leading Industry Analyst Firm

Innovative Technology Company Developing Ground Breaking Products and Services Receives Prestigious Recognition--Companies Listed in the "Cool Vendor" Report are Innovative and Impactful

New York, NY (PRWEB) April 8, 2009

Reimage is included in the list of "Cool Vendors" in the "Cool Vendors in Customer Service Strategies, Michael Maoz and Johan Jacobs, March 3, 2009" report by Gartner, Inc. According to the Gartner report, "Despite a difficult environment in which to raise equity, several companies in customer service and support area of CRM are developing innovative new products and services." It goes on to state, "The fact that Gartner had more than 10 candidates for our cool vendors in customer service strategies research illustrates the criticality of customer service at all points in the economy, but especially when there is a need to lower operational costs without undercutting the level of service." The complete report is available to Gartner clients at www. Gartner. com.

Reimage (www. reimage. com), just one of four companies listed on the most recent 'Cool Vendor' report, offers a complete web-based diagnosis service, for professionals, PC technicians, IT administrators and home users, that automatically repairs dysfunctional PCs leaving user data intact and safe while boosting application performance by tracking and predicting users' actions. Being listed on the 'Cool Vendor' report is a tremendous honor stated Zak Dechovich, CEO of Reimage.

"We are extremely pleased to be recognized by Gartner in the Cool Vendors report" said Mr. Dechovich. "We believe it is a testament to the dynamic products and services we provide and our leading edge thinking in developing technology that is not only needed to ensure companies and individuals' PC computers are running effectively and efficiently but that we are an invaluable resource especially during these ever changing economic conditions when time and money is limited."

With Reimage's patent-pending technology, the operating system can be brought back to its most stable and best working condition possible within 30 minutes. The process takes into account all software on the machine--scanning hundreds of thousands of potential causes of disruption--essentially emulating the human brain and automating the way software problems are identified and repaired. Reimage eliminates the need for diagnostic decisions based on superficial symptoms by studying all software object and interlinked dependencies, and comparing that information with a proprietary Reimage repository containing over 20 million components. The technology then surgically pinpoints only faulty objects and dependencies. Throughout the process, user data and preferences remain untouched. According to Nicholas Black, Marketing Director of Reimage, the use of the repository allows to automatically correct any malfunctions, with no need for prior preparation.

"The repository is a fascinating and ever-growing organism that facilitates the repair of applications based on how they look when they are fully functional," said Mr. Black. "Each day, it grows. Each day, the potential for component recognition and restoration improves. The swift restoration of missing parts and the removal of redundant parts is far more efficient than the conventional method of reinstalling."

Mr. Black goes onto say that Reimage never touches a user's data. "The reason that we don't actually handle the user's data, which we all worry about, is because of our technical process. We only bring in select software components that we indentify as missing or isolate software components that shouldn't be in a user's system or different pieces of software that keep clashing. So in essence, we jump around your data and applications and inject healthy files so your data stays perfectly safe and untouched."

Reimage is utilized by hundreds or PC technicians world-wide and hundreds of thousands of home users. The company continues to grow rapidly showing strong and stable future viability as well as continued growth in supporting multiple languages including English, French, Spanish and Hebrew.

"We are in a great position to support all operating system problems even after other companies won't," said Mr. Dechovich. "When those companies stop supporting Windows XP or other operating systems such as Vista and Windows7, we will be the only ones with the know-how and ability to continue keeping PCs working at their best. We are pleased to be having the success that we are achieving and extremely excited about the future and possibilities for expanded global outreach."

About Gartner's Cool Vendor Selection Process
Gartner's listing does not constitute an exhaustive list of vendors in any given technology area, but rather is designed to highlight interesting, new and innovative vendors, products and services. Gartner disclaims all warranties, expressed or implied, with respect to this research, including any warranties of merchantability or fitness of a particular purpose. Gartner defines a cool vendor as a company that offers technologies or solutions that are: Innovative, enable users to do things they couldn't do before; Impactful, have, or will have, business impact (not just technology for the sake of technology); Intriguing, have caught Gartner's interest or curiosity in approximately the past six months.

Reimage
Reimage's instant, online, PC repair tool is a revolutionary new concept in PC repair that, for the first time ever, makes an old PC work like new. Reimage provides end user and professional tools, structured around its core technology. This technology increases the PC repair quality, and efficiency, by performing Windows XP repairs, in about 30 minutes requiring no set-up, at the click of a button. Reimage support is available in English, French, Spanish and Hebrew with additional languages being developed.

Tuve mucho miedo cuando primeramente fui diagnosticado. Me preocupaba que mi salud sólo se empeoraría, y que le iba ser masdificultosa la vida a mi familia. Me enteré de que puedo vivir con esta enfermedad pero yo necesito el apoyo de mi familia para seguir el programa de la dieta y el ejercicio a diario

Angela Camilleri, coordinadora del programa Amigos por parte de Pfizer Health Solutions, explica "los promotores de salud ayudan a los pacientes tengan una comprensión más profunda de su salud y el comportamiento dentro del contexto de sus vidas. La pura complejidad de la diabetes y las barreras al cuidado que los pacientes deben sobrepasar requiere una estrategia de enfoques múltiples. Este acercamiento de enfoques hacia el paciente les da una oportunidad real y de largo plazo para que manejen exitosamente su diabetes". Ella agregó, " Los resultados de nuestros graduados iniciales demuestran mejoras en los resultados clínicos del HbA1c. El A1c común entre pacientes alistados fue 9.4% al principio del programa, esta suma cayó dos puntos en el porcentaje a 7.05 % - dentro de un rango normal - después de trabajar con promotores de salud por un período de seis meses. Los resultados de todos los participantes del programa estarán disponibles este otoño cuando esperamos que la mayoría de los pacientes se gradúen"

En el Condado de Los Ángeles, el 16% de hispanos mayor de 40 años sufre de diabetes. Para empeorar este problema muchos de ellos no tienen acceso a servicios de salud: se reporta que el 45% de latinos en el Condado de Los Ángeles no tienen acceso a seguro de salud, 36% no tiene un proveedor regular para el cuidado de sus enfermedades, y se reporta que el 54% son obesos, el cual es factor principal de riesgo para la diabetes. Un reciente estudio por el Centro médico de UCLA para Investigación de la Salud, reportó que los hispanos tienen tasas "extremadamente altas" de diabetes a comparación de otras razas no-blancas. La situación se complica más ya que los latinos sobre la edad de 65, tienen la incidencia más alta de diabetes (24 %) en proporción a los otros grupos.

Por seis meses los graduados participaron en un programa de educación sobre la diabetesenfocado en percepciones culturales esenciales para el manejo exitoso de la diabetes. Los promotores quienes proveen apoyo y educación sobre la salud, trabajan con pacientes recién diagnosticados en Español y enfocan la atención en creencias culturales populares, estrategias de cambio de comportamiento, y el uso de materiales de salud apropiados para ellos. Tomado en conjunto, se espera que esta estrategia incremente el deseo y la habilidad para alcanzar las metas de los pacientes y cambiar su comportamiento y el potencial para mejorla calidad de vida a largo plazo.

Edna Bush, enfermera y coordinadora del program Amigos en las Clínica Familiar QueensCare nos dice, "los participantes no siempre entienden que el diagnóstico de una enfermedad que potencialmente amenaza la vida como la diabetes, se puede controlar exitosamente por muchos años. La estrategia Amigos en Salud combina la enseñanza sobre la diabetes, cambio del comportamiento de los pacientes, y el auto-manejo de su enfermedad dentro del contexto de la cultura Latina. Los resultados del programa hasta ahora han sido alentadores y resalta el valor de las interacciones positivas que los promotores de salud tienen en la conportamiento de su tratamiento". El programa fue implementado en las Clínica Familiar QueensCare en Eagle Rock, y Echo Park, y en el Este de Los Ángeles. El Programa Amigos en Salud fue desarrollado por Pfizer Health Solutions en conjunto con las Clínicas Familiares QueensCare y es parcialmente patrocinado por la Fundación Pfizer.

"Es tremendamente edificante ver que nuestros pacientes han assimilado el programa y han hecho cambios en el manejo de su salud y conjuntamente con Pfizer, pudimos contribuir en este esfuerzo", dijo Terry Bonecutter, Presidente Ejecutivo de QueensCare. Bonecutter cree que la educación culturalmente relevante y él empoderar a los pacientes es un componente importante en el cuidado de la salud que progresivamente se integrara en el cuidado proveído en QueensCare.
