CartiHeal Performs First Agili-C™ Implant Case on the East Coast
Surgery performed at NYU Langone Orthopedic Hospital in New York by sports medicine surgeon Eric Strauss, MD
NEW YORK and KFAR SABA, Israel, Nov. 12, 2018 /CNW/ - CartiHeal, developer of Agili-C, a proprietary implant for the treatment of joint surface lesions, announced today the successful enrollment of the first patient in the Agili-C Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) pivotal study on the East Coast.

The surgery was performed by site Principal Investigator Eric J. Strauss, MD, an orthopedic surgeon at NYU Langone Health's Sports Medicine Center in New York City. NYU Langone is one of 15 U.S. sites in the new Food and Drug Administration (FDA) IDE trial and will enroll 20 patients with major knee cartilage injuries.
The first patient enrolled at NYU Langone was a 53 year-old female with a history of two failed surgeries on her left knee, who had a very symptomatic cartilage lesion, with significant bone marrow edema affecting her lateral femoral condyle. "The patient was randomized to the Agili-C arm and treated with a single implant in a procedure that went smoothly and led to an immediate increase in blood flow to the affected region," according to Dr. Strauss.
"My colleagues and I are looking forward to building upon this first successful case and contributing to the study on treating these difficult-to-manage injuries. This investigational implant has great potential to provide an off-the shelf solution for a large spectrum of cartilage lesions."
Nir Altschuler, CartiHeal's founder & CEO said: "Enrolling the first US East Coast patient is an important milestone for our study. We are honored that this important case was performed in the good hands of Dr. Eric Strauss, and look forward to his research team continuing to enroll patients." Altschuler also added that the IDE study, with over 100 enrolled patients, is currently ongoing in the US, EU and Israel, and aiming for an FDA premarket approval application.
CartiHeal's cell-free, off-the-shelf implant is CE marked for use in cartilage and osteochondral defects. Agili-C has been implanted in over 400 patients with cartilage lesions in the knee, ankle and great toe in a series of trials conducted in leading centers in Europe and Israel. In these trials, the implant was used to treat a broad spectrum of cartilage lesions, from single focal lesions to multiple and large defects in patients suffering from osteoarthritis.
About CartiHeal
CartiHeal, a privately-held medical device company with headquarters in Israel, develops proprietary implants for the treatment of cartilage and osteochondral defects in traumatic and osteoarthritic joints.
In the United States, the Agili-C implant is not available for sale - it is an investigational device limited for use in the IDE study.

Morneau Shepell's clients recognized by Benefits Canada as leaders in employee benefits
TORONTO, Nov. 12, 2018 /CNW/ - Morneau Shepell is pleased to announce that two of its longstanding clients have been acknowledged by Benefits Canada at the 2018 Workplace Benefits Awards. This year, Ontario Power Generation (OPG) won in the absence management category and Staples Canada won in the mental health category.

In addition to absence management and mental health, award recipients were recognized for contributions to diversity programs, financial wellness, pension plan communications, industry leadership and more.
"Mental health has been an important pillar of our wellness strategy at Staples and we are very honoured to be recognized for this award," said Kate Tilsley, senior director, total rewards and human resources information systems, Staples Canada.

"In the last few years, we identified an opportunity to bring employees into the conversation and increase their awareness about effectively managing absences so that they get back to work faster and thereby improve productivity.

Healthy Lifestyle Habits Can Prevent Dementia
Chattanooga, TN, November 9, 2018 ― Dr. Timothy R. Jennings speaks expertly on a subject that concerns over 5.5 million people across the nation: how to prevent dementia and keep our mind sharp as we age. A psychiatrist and international speaker, Jennings introduces his new book, recently rated #1 by Amazon in books on dementia, The Aging Brain: Proven Steps to Prevent Dementia and Sharpen Your Mind.
Dr. Jennings prescribes simple, everyday actions we can take to stave off disease, promote vitality, and prevent dementia and late-onset Alzheimer's. "The choices we make now can help us to keep our minds sharp and maintain our independence as we age,” says Jennings.
An easy-to-use guide to maintaining brain and body health throughout life, The Aging Brain is based on solid, up-to-date scientific research, and the interventions discussed can prevent progression toward dementia, even in those already showing signs of mild cognitive impairment. The recommendations also may help reduce disability and depression.
"This book isn't just for people hoping to slow the aging process,” says Jennings. "It's also for anyone who is a caregiver to someone at risk of or already beginning to suffer from dementia. It offers a hopeful, healthy way forward.”
Jennings, who maintains a private practice in Chattanooga, TN, has authored several books, including The God-Shaped Brain and The God-Shaped Heart. He is a Distinguished Fellow of the American Psychiatric Association and Fellow of the Southern Psychiatric Association, and is president and founder of Come and Reason Ministries.

Far From Theoretical, Suicide Prevention Treatment Is Available Now
Henderson, NV, November 9, 2018 — You have watched your nephew slide into a depression that seems irreversible. Your spouse wakes up each night with night terrors brought on by post-traumatic stress. A student in your class has gone from shy to reclusive, refusing to go outside his home. Despite caring families that have tried everything, the problems remain.
Matthew D. Dovel has dedicated his life's work to understanding and preventing suicide, depression, anxiety and post-traumatic stress, and believes he has found the solution. Dovel, the founder and president of the nonprofit International Suicide Prevention, has developed a noninvasive, nonmedical treatment program called Nu-Rekall® which trains individuals to rid themselves of emotional suffering and suicidal thoughts.
"In 2005, I delivered suicide intervention training at the Cree Reservation in Ouje-Bougoumou, Canada,” he says. "The 4 Phase technique reduced suicides from one nonfatal event and one fatal outcome per month to zero fatal outcomes in the subsequent six months.”
Dovel's system, called Zero Suicide System/Nu-Rekall®, is based on an understanding of how traumatic memories, ranked according to intensity, are stored in the brain. By altering this hierarchy and assigning an intense memory a lesser "rank” on the scale, the sufferer causes the memory to slip from the conscious mind. Dovel has been lecturing and training his method since 2015.
"I want to propagate this information to create a global shift in humanity and save as many lives as possible before my time here has ended,” Dovel says.

Reusable water bottle sales driven by 51.7% of consumers wanting to reduce their plastic usage, says GlobalData
Purchases of reusable water bottles and travel mugs are on the rise as consumers seek to reduce plastic waste, save money and stay hydrated, says GlobalData, a leading data and analytics company.
The company’s kitchen storage survey of 2000 UK shoppers revealed that Amazon and the grocers have benefited most from increased demand, with 14.9% of reusable water bottle shoppers purchasing from Amazon, and 13.6% and 8.8% of shoppers buying from Tesco and Asda respectively.
Amy Higginbotham, Retail Analyst at GlobalData, commented, “Almost one in five consumers purchased a reusable water bottle in the past 12 months, and over a quarter of those were 16 to 24 years old; this demographic is more exposed to, and influenced by, online media messages relating to plastic waste.”
Sales of travel mugs were less marked, with 8.4% of shoppers buying one in the last 12 months, but consumers were driven by the same environmental reasons.

Higginbotham continues, “Over half of those who purchased a reusable water bottle did so to reduce the amount of plastic they use – with David Attenborough’s widely-watched Blue Planet series having a major impact on attitudes to the effects the material is having on the environment.”
This reason was followed by a desire to save money, with over a third wanting to spend less on disposable bottles of water. Consumers also wanted to increase their water intake, as campaigns and health experts continue to stress the importance of staying hydrated.
Higginbotham concludes, “Amazon and the grocers are benefitting most as price and convenience attract kitchen storage shoppers. 78.8% of those who shopped at Amazon were attracted by the competitive prices while convenience was the biggest driver at the grocers, with 67.3% of Tesco customers choosing the retailer because it is easy to get to the store.”

Four On-The-Go Snacks to Help Lower Blood Glucose and Cholesterol
This fast-paced lifestyle we’re leading contains considerable amounts of stress and unhealthy decisions. With so much information, responsibilities, and details that we have to think about, it’s no wonder we don’t always make the healthiest choices. Spending superhuman amounts of energy to accomplish everything expected of us, both our body and mind suffer. High blood glucose and high cholesterol are the most common consequences of such a lifestyle, and they can cause severe diseases like cholesterol or diabetes. For the prevention of these issues, it is essential to exercise, eat healthily, lose excess body fat, and rest well.
When was the last time you ate a healthy meal?
Today, we’ll try to help you find ideas for some tasty and healthy snacks that won’t increase the level of sugar or cholesterol in your blood, while at the same time, won’t take long to prepare.
- Apple Cider Vinegar Salad Dressings
This one is as simple as rolling off a log. We all love mayonnaise, balsamic vinegar, cheese, and similar stuff. But using a couple of tablespoons of apple cider vinegar mixed with little mustard and basil can make a wonderful salad dressing that doesn’t contain sugars or bad cholesterol. If you try this combination, you will fall in love with freshness added to your salads, and you’ll also notice how this dressing makes them easier to digest.
2. Sweet Potato Toast Sandwich
It might sound weird, but if you slice sweet potato and bake it in the oven, put it on toast, it won't taste odd. As a spread for this sandwich, try the paste from white beans. Smash cooked white beans, add some lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Spread it over your potato toast, put a few slices of smoked salmon, and you’ll have delicious, healthy sandwich that will quickly become one of your favorites.
3. Make Yourself a Cholesterade Drink
If you’re already eating healthy, but you still have high levels of cholesterol or glucose in your blood (or want to take your prevention to a higher level), than you should try Cholesterade. This food supplement naturally reduces cholesterol in your blood. What you need to do is put one scoop of Cholesterade in a glass of water or your favorite fruit juice, mix it well and drink it. It is recommended to drink Cholesterade twice a day, and you’ll see the changes very quickly.
4. Cherry-Berry-Cacao-Almond Smoothie
Both sour cherries and cacao are low in sugar and rich in antioxidants. In case you didn’t know, Antioxidants are substances that lessen the cholesterol level in blood. Add berries to the mix along with almonds (FYI - they contain no bad cholesterol), and you’ll get a perfect low-sugar, cholesterol-erasing smoothie. If you feel like experimenting, or you want to add more flavor, put in a little cinnamon and enjoy the magic.
Eating healthy doesn’t have to be time-consuming. With the right ingredients and a little imagination, you can prepare delicious meals in no time. Also, no matter how much work you have, and how stressed you are, you can’t ignore your health. So try out these recipes that will control cholesterol and glucose levels in your blood and make you feel fresh and energetic.
After overindulging during the holidays, many people resolve to eat healthy as the New Year begins. Here are 5 surprising "healthy" foods that may be upsetting your stomach
1. Juicing: New year's juice cleanses often deliver a concentrated source of fructose (often apple based) or other "FODMAPs" (foods that can be hard to digest) like beets and celery.
2. Giant salads: full of bulky, stomach-stretching insoluble fiber that can take some time for the stomach to break down enough to pass through digestive tract. Some sensitive people may also experience abdominal distention or bloating from acid indigestion.
3. Sugarless gum-- some people find the xylitol or sorbitol to produce intestinal gas, while others swallow excess air when chewing gum, causing belching and upper GI discomfort
4. Bean pastas: Low glycemic pastas made from chickpeas and other beans are high in protein and fiber and great for blood sugar control, but they deliver a very potent punch difficult-to-digest fibers and resistant starch that cause many people excessive intestinal gas
5. Cauliflower-- its the fave low carb, keto and paleo staple-- cauli rice, cauli crusts, cauli chips... but this objectively healthy food naturally contains mannitol, which can create excess intestinal gas
Even the best ab workout in the world won’t flatten a belly plagued by chronic bloating, a condition that affects up to one in five Americans. For anyone tired of feeling like they’re carrying a “food baby” after lunch, waking up at night with painful indigestion or trying not to pass gas when on a date or in meetings, registered dietician Tamara Duker Freuman is here to help.
Freuman has spent her career talking candidly about the digestive issues many people are too embarrassed to discuss with others. Most importantly, she knows how to fix these problems. She’s known as “The Bloated Belly Whisperer” by grateful patients and the hundreds of thousands of readers per month who have followed her advice on US News + World Report’s eat+run blog and Yahoo! Health for the past six years.
THE BLOATED BELLY WHISPERER (St. Martin’s Press, Dec. 24, $28.99), is a game-changer, allowing anyone to finally figure out what’s causing their digestive distress—and giving them the tools to fix it, once and for all. Bloating means different things to different people, and Freuman helps readers discover the most likely cause—and solution-- for their digestive distress, no matter how long they’ve suffered.
The book begins with a comprehensive quiz dismp rrecting readers to specific chapters addressing different causes of bloat, and includes fifty gut-friendly recipes from a renowned Bon Appetit editor. With a customized course of treatment based on the latest research, bloated-belly sufferers can start to see results in as early as one week.
Arthritis Research Canada appoints first Honourary Patron
Retired Chief Justice Beverley McLachlin lends name to arthritis research
VANCOUVER, Nov. 8, 2018 /CNW/ - Arthritis Research Canada is excited to announce that Beverley McLachlin, O.C., P.C., will be the first Honourary Patron of Arthritis Research Canada/Arthrite-recherche Canada. McLachlin served 28 years on the Supreme Court, including 17 years as Chief Justice, and has had a resounding impact on rights and freedoms in Canada.
"Arthritis afflicts many people and diminishes countless lives. I am delighted to be associated with an organization devoted to research into its causes and treatment," said former Chief Justice Beverley McLachlin.
McLachlin became a British Columbia Supreme Court judge six months before the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms took effect. In 1989, Brian Mulroney appointed her to the Supreme Court, and in 2000 Jean Chrétien appointed her Chief Justice.
"Beverley McLachlin has left an impressive mark on our justice system and country as a whole," said Dr. John Esdaile, Arthritis Research Canada's Scientific Director. "We are truly honoured to have her join our organization in an honourary capacity to help promote life-changing arthritis research."
McLachlin's court has touched all Canadians in the 35 years since the Charter of Rights took effect. Most can probably recall a decision from her court that they agreed or disagreed with and certainly debated among friends.
In a Globe and Mail article about McLachlin's life and career, Sean Fine, the paper's justice reporter, wrote: "Her legacy, covering virtually every area of the law – from strong protections of due process for suspected terrorists and criminals, to a new legal footing for Indigenous peoples, to the resounding independence of Canada's highest court, to the vibrant growth of the 'living tree' of constitutional rights – is now part of the country's foundations."
McLachlin has been recognized internationally for her contribution to the law and holds more than 30 honorary degrees.
"Beverley McLachlin is an extraordinary Canadian who has done much to promote and protect the rights of every Canadian through clear interpretation of the law," Esdaile said. "Arthritis Research Canada is truly blessed to have such an accomplished person as its first honourary patron."

Mix up your moves for Movember - new exercise ideas for men's health
The month of November is all about shining a spotlight on men’s health issues. The Movember Foundation identifies prostate and testicular cancer as two significant health issues but also points to the prevalence of suicide and depression among many men. One in 10 Canadian men will experience major depression in the course of their lives and 75% of suicides in Canada are men. It turns out being strong and silent can affect your mental health.
Physical activity is known to be good for reducing the risk of long-term illness, and it has a positive effect on mental health by boosting endorphins and reducing stress. But it’s not always easy to get motivated to do the same workout, day in and day out.
According to Nsuani Baffoe, personal training regional manager for GoodLife Fitness in downtown Toronto, the best way to maintain your fitness enthusiasm is to mix it up. It’s good for your mind, but also great for building all-over strength and endurance. So, what’s out there for men to mix up their muscle-centric workouts? Baffoe recommends these fun, effective options.
Yoga. For men who are used to pumping iron, the idea of yoga might seem foreign. In fact, only 28 percent of men do yoga on a regular basis (2016 Yoga in America study). The reality is yoga is the perfect activity to round out a strength and cardio-focused fitness program and it’s a perfect workout to build active recovery into your routine.
Baffoe says yoga strengthens core muscles while strength training doesn’t. You need core strength for lateral twisting, spinal arch and balance challenges of certain positions (downward dog, planks and warrior). Yoga can also help maximize your performance by training you to breathe more efficiently, reducing blood pressure and lowering stress.
Animal Flow. The name says it all. Animal Flow is a type of ground-based bodyweight exercise done on all fours. The movements simulate animals (think apes, crabs and bears crawling) and incorporates elements of yoga and gymnastics. Since it’s done using body weight, animal flow is a perfect option for men looking to build strength, tone, power, and endurance. Its primal feel appeals to your inner animal and it can be included in almost any workout program.
Martial arts-inspired fitness. It doesn’t get much better than recreating the moves from your favourite Kung Fu movie…and getting fit while you do it. Whether it’s kickboxing, jujitsu or fusion classes like BODYCOMBAT, martial arts fitness classes help vent stress, build strength and improve your cardio endurance.
Obstacle course race training. You already watch it on TV, so why not do it at the gym? Obstacle course race training is the latest fitness trend that channels your inner warrior. A great option for those looking to boost their athletic performance to new levels. The course looks a lot like a school playground, where you work on running faster, jumping higher and farther, balancing and bodyweight challenges.
Team sports. Recreational sports leagues are a great way to combine fun, physical activity and social connection. There’s a reason so many men sign up for evening hockey and summer soccer, not to mention tennis, basketball and more. Research shows men are mostly attracted to ice hockey, golf, basketball, soccer, and baseball, and roughly one in four men participate in ice hockey.
For men, the perfect fitness combination for physical and mental health includes cardiovascular, strength, flexibility and endurance. It’s also important that men find ways to build in time with others who share similar interests, so group training and sports leagues are good options. The best way to achieve all these is to mix up your workout and try new types of fitness.
