An Inherited Condition Could be the Cause of Your Early Heart Disease or Stroke, But Your Doctor is Probably Not Testing for It

YourUpdateTV

A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/Y_mu9ZpIO88 Heart disease is still the single biggest threat to American health today. Family Heart Foundation research shows that less than 5% of Americans are being screened for the most common, life-threatening genetic condition that causes early strokes and heart attacks – elevated Lipoprotein(a) or Lp(a) for short. Elevated lipoprotein(a) is the most common genetic cause of early heart disease and stroke. One in 5 people worldwide have inherited high Lp(a), and most don’t know it. You inherit your Lp(a) level from your parents. Because elevated Lp(a) isn’t screened for, the first sign of this condition may be a stroke or a heart attack. Elevated levels of Lp(a) increases the risk of blood clotting and plaque buildup inside the blood vessels, which can block the flow of blood and oxygen to your heart and brain. Compared to the general population, people with elevated Lp(a) have 2-3 times the risk for a heart attack and stroke at a young age. The higher your Lp(a), the higher your risk. Lp(a) is not measured in the standard cholesterol panel. It’s important to understand if you have elevated Lp(a). Multiple therapies are in development but in the meantime, there are things you can do to manage your other cardiovascular risk factors, such as keeping your LDL cholesterol levels very low. The Family Heart Foundation can help you find a healthcare provider near you and connect you to others living with elevated Lp(a). The Family Heart Foundation is the only patient-centered, research and advocacy organization focused on addressing the lack of screening and care for people born and living with this common life-threatening condition. On March 20 th a nationwide media tour was conducted featuring Dr. Amit Khera, Professor and Director of Preventive Cardiology UT Southwestern Medical Center and Misty Votaw. Topics they discussed included: Who should have their Lp(a) measured and when. Misty’s story and how the Family Heart Foundation provided resources. If you have elevated Lp(a), what can you do to reduce your risk of heart disease and stroke. What the Family Heart Foundation is doing to address gaps in care for 60 million Americans at risk. For more information and to find out if you have elevated Lp(a), contact the Family Heart Foundation’s Care Navigation team at FindLpa.org.

FRX to benefit from the recent announcement by the European Union to regulate the chemical TPP

FRX Innovations Inc

Boston, MA – TheNewswire - March 25, 2024 – FRX Innovations, Inc. (TSXV:FRXI) (FSE:W2A) (OTC:FRXI) (“FRX” or the “Company”), announces that on February 23rd, the European Union’s Chemical Agency, ECHA, declared the planned addition of Tri Phenyl Phosphate (TPP), a common flame retardant additive, used globally, either directly or as part of other flame retardants in a range of applications including automotive, consumer electronics and printed circuit boards, as a Substance of Very High Concern (SVHC), due to its adverse health profile and specifically for its Endocrine Disruption properties.   NOFIA ® family of flame retardants, is already a proven alternative for TPP-containing flame retardants   in several end applications, with first commercial adoption by the company’s European partner, Polymer Compounders, Ltd. under NOTOXICOM ® brand. This is a very significant announcement: “When chemicals are announced as candidates for classification as SVHC, it usually means that companies will move away from their use in any sensitive application with a risk of human or environmental exposure” said FRX Innovations President and CEO, Marc Lebel, he added that “TPP is found in several high volume flame retardants that will now likely have to be modified to reduce the TPP level below what we expect to be 0.1% or, could even be discontinued by those suppliers not able to achieve this level.  For those able to achieve this low level, it will likely mean a significant increase in the cost of manufacturing.  Should FRX achieve just a ten (10%) percent market penetration, the annual NOFIA ® demand in this market would reach $100 million.”  “Endocrine Disrupting chemicals are chemicals that may mimic, block, or interfere with the body’s hormones….  These chemicals are associated with a wide array of health issues”, according to the US National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences.   FRX is already very well placed: This news follows recent announcements of regulations limiting the use of halogenated flame retardants and also PFAS, Forever Chemicals, in flame retardant products.  FRX has already announced how its Nofia Flame Retardants can replace halogenated flame retardants, and PFAS chemicals in many large volume applications.  Nofia flame retardants can also replace the largest TPP-containing flame retardant, known as BPADP, it its uses in the enclosures of household electronics, battery housings, and many other uses.     Notoxicom by Polymer Compounders Ltd: The first commercial use of a Nofia flame retardant to replace BPADP was launched by the UK based compounder Polymer Compounders.  PCL Commercial Development Manager, Rupert Barrett, said “Not only is this news incredibly encouraging for all those associated with FRX and PCL, but also the general public and community. As we have become more aware of the detrimental harm TPP can inflict upon both humans and the environment, our passion and determination to spread the health and sustainable credentials Notoxicom® encompasses has been at the forefront of our business.”   “As momentum gathers, we will continue to work in tandem with FRX to ensure we maximize our resource and persist with the task in hand.”   Neither TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.   About FRX Innovations (www.frx-innovations.com) FRX Innovations is a global manufacturing company, producing a family of sustainable flame-retardant products that serve several large markets spanning textiles, electronics, automotive, electric vehicles (EV), and medical devices. FRX is led by a team of highly experienced business and technical professionals and is positioned to be a leader in the rapidly changing flame-retardant plastics and additives market in response to new legislation prohibiting Brominated and Perfluoro flame retardants found in a wide range of electronics and electrical products and restricting the use of melamine flame retardant chemicals found in furniture and mattress foam products.   NOFIA® is a registered trademark of FRX. NOFIA® products are manufactured at its manufacturing facility on the Port of Antwerp in Belgium, one of the world's largest chemical producing clusters.

Legible and Remo Camerota Join Forces to Publish AI-enhanced Frankenstein Classic

Legible Inc

Click Image To View Full Size    March 25, 2024 – TheNewswire - Vancouver, British Columbia – Legible Inc. (CSE:READ) (OTC:LEBGF) (FSE:D0T) ("Legible” / “Company”), a global online eBook and audiobook platform pioneering technological innovation and creative storytelling, is thrilled to announce a collaboration with esteemed career fine artist, author and film director Remo Camerota to create an AI-powered version of Mary Shelley's masterpiece Frankenstein.   In a first-of-its-kind fusion of classic literature and cutting-edge technology, Legible’s “ FrAnkensteIn” will utilize artificial intelligence (AI) to create interactive story elements, allowing users to engage directly with the narrative and characters in ways never before possible. This interactive experience promises to challenge perceptions of storytelling, blurring the lines between creator and creation, much like the novel itself.   Remo Camerota is an award-winning director, artist, and photographer, with a background in illustration, painting, animation, and interactive multimedia design, whose art is included in a unique collection recently sent to the moon. Known for his ability to meld science, tech, and sound with art to create immersive experiences, Camerota’s visionary perspective and digital artistry will ensure that FrAnkensteIn is not only a narrative feat, but also a visual spectacle, offering audiences around the world a uniquely engaging way to experience a zeitgeist that will bridge this 1900 novel to today.   The collaboration aims to preserve the soul of Shelley's original work while infusing it with interactive elements that explore themes of creation, ethics, and human frailty and innocence - questions that are even more relevant today with our 21st-century technology and scientific advances than they were in the 19th century.   Remo Camerota stated, " I am excited to collaborate with Legible on this groundbreaking project. Blending the haunting beauty of Frankenstein with AI allows us to reflect on the implications of creation and technology, themes that Mary Shelley could never have imagined but are now part of our daily lives."   "Working with Remo Camerota on this project is an absolute honor," said Kaleeg Hainsworth, CEO of Legible. "His visionary approach to art and storytelling perfectly complements our mission to innovate within the literary world. Together, we are not just retelling Frankenstein; we are reimagining it for a new era."   FrAnkensteIn is not just a revival of a gothic masterpiece; it is a leap into the future of digital narrative. This ambitious project aims to explore the themes of creation, ethics, and humanity that Shelley's novel famously wrestled with, using the very technology that epitomizes modern-day innovation: artificial intelligence.   This innovative project marks the third publication in Legible's celebrated AI-powered classics series, following the successful releases of A Christmas Carol AI and Animal Farm AI. By teaming up with Camerota, whose eclectic portfolio spans film, photography, and digital art, Legible ensures that this version of Frankenstein will captivate readers with its unique blend of classic narrative, modern aesthetics, and unique innovations created by the artist.   FrAnkensteIn is set to launch in Q3 this year, with previews and exclusive content being made available in the lead-up to the release. The Living Book will be available exclusively on Legible.com both as an a-la-carte purchase and to members of Legible Unbound, which provides unlimited access to a vast curated catalogue of eBooks and audiobooks in multiple languages for the low monthly fee of $10 USD.     About Legible   Legible is a groundbreaking, mobile-centric global company specializing in eBooks and audiobook entertainment.
