Food Safety’s Biggest Challenge: The American Diet

Americans are rightly concerned about the wide variety of pathogens that regularly turn up in foods common to most diets. Dietary and lifestyle factors in the US are responsible for death rates that exceed most other Westernized countries.

Few of us probably sufficiently ascribe the quality of our diet to our basic state of health.
And so as 2010 unfolds, take time to consider the fundamentals of your diet and the critical food safety issue it represents. Contaminated foods can certainly result in very serious illness, but a good diet can help ensure long-term health.

Food Safety with EFresh(R)

Here is nice Preso we did regarding Food Safety. Enjoy.

Our Technology

The technology works in any biological entity essentially by illustrating a very early occurring level of cellular architecture, the cell wall membrane, in the hierarchy of physiology. This level occurs prior to those seen using lab studies, imaging techniques and physical signs; so we are able to provide better information sooner. As it turns out the ability of a cell to hold an electrical signal is proportional to its health and vitality so without any mathematical manipulation we are able to see prognosis; the presence/severity of disease, the effectiveness of treatment, the cumulative burden of illness and the timing of non-acute death. In foods we are able to determine freshness, palatability (tenderness-juiciness-flavorfulness) and if the foodstuff has been previously frozen.

The study is non-invasive/destructive, provides immediate results and is economically applied. Both our products PrognostiCheck(R) and EFresh(R) are based on this technology.

Severity of Disease

Some of the most common and important questions for the individual patient and their family is
– “When is he/she going to feel better?”
– “How effective is the treatment?”
– “The severity of disease?”

Prognosis assesses the course, presence and severity of disease, the effectiveness of treatments and the timing of non-acute death. Prognosis provides answers to support the decisions that physicians, patients and families must make. Through understanding and seeing a disease process in practical objective terms; better decisions can be made.

Information about prognosis is often based upon statistical analysis of a disease condition, lab studies and the experience of
others. In general terms these methods are especially effective at planning but when used for individuals they fail.

PrognostiCheck® is a biometric scoring system based upon measured values from a medical device. It works on the following principal “the ability of a biological entity to store a safe and highly controlled electrical signal is proportionate to the vitality of the entity.”

• These data come from the cellular architecture level in the hierarchy of physiology which occurs before the traditional values of lab studies, imaging techniques and physical examination come from.
• By seeing what is happening in the cell-wall-membrane the results provide better information sooner that supports, compliments and increases the value of the physician’s decision dataset.
• This Vitality Index® can be used to score a patients prognosis and better understand the severity of their disease, the effectiveness of a treatment on them and the timing (or trajectory) of their death.
• The test is noninvasive, easily done, has no side effects and has immediate results that are easily understood.

By knowing the severity of disease – the patient,  their family and physician can collectively make a better decisions based on objective and reliable facts. The results provide physicians, patients and families with better information to make better decisions.
The results clearly illustrate the global effects of the disease, treatment and the patient’s response and can be used to objectively and accurately decide what to do next.

PrognostiCheck(R): Diagnostic tool to measure patient prognosis

Early detection and correct prognosis of serious illness is critical – and are paramount to improving patient survival rates. PrognostiCheck(R) is a scoring system based upon an electrical measurement of cellular architecture of a patient. The study utilizes an electrical illustration of the cell-wall membrane of a phospho-lipid bi-layer cell who’s ability to act as a capacitor and hold the electrical signal is indicative of the health of the patient.

It detects the presence and severity of disease, the effectiveness of treatment, the burden of the illness on the individual patient and whether they are recovering. We invite you to explore our innovate product and look forward for your comments.
