Service Foods Launches New Corporate Health and Wellness Division, Green Box Foods











Service Foods Launches New Corporate Health and Wellness Division, Green Box Foods


Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) May 14, 2012

Service Foods, a leading provider of all natural, high-quality organic food for home delivery, is pleased to introduce Green Box Foods, Employee Benefit and Affinity Programs division. The health and wellness division is designed to help corporations, associations and non-profits improve the health of their employees, members, customers and the organizations themselves.

Unlike its parent company, which offers its services and all natural food through a network of physicians and direct to consumers channels, Green Box Foods works in partnership with corporate human resource and benefit departments, benefit groups, associations and non-profit groups. Annual communication plans are devised to implement educational programs and platforms to teach the importance of on-going healthy living, as well as chronic disease prevention and management, to improve employee health through proper nutrition, dietary supplementation and exercise. 

All employees, members or customers have the option of utilizing the online nutritional wellness assessment or be provided a personalized wellness assessment by the Green Box Foods health professionals. Both options provide enrollees with private consultations to better understand their current health status and nutritional needs. Based on their results, the proper all natural and organic nutritional food options are then recommended and available for home delivery. Additionally, employees and members have the ability to contact Green Box Foods’ registered dietitians, registered nurses, fitness experts, all natural chefs and doctors via email, social media and phone. They can also choose to be monitored by the team to ensure progress with their health and wellness goals. 

Green Box Foods is providing a unique benefit to organizations, their employees and members by offering easy access to all natural, high-quality organic food coupled with educational programs and platforms focused on the nutritional well-being of employees, members, customers and the organizations themselves.

“This key component is new in corporate health and wellness plans,” said Service Foods CEO Dr. Keith Kantor. “We’re bringing the food to you and providing the highest quality nutrition for optimum health and wellness.”

Since its launch, Green Box Foods has already secured University of North Carolina Health Care as a client. The non-profit healthcare system is based in Chapel Hill, N.C. and employs approximately 8,000 people. In addition to comprehensive medical, surgical and psychiatric care, UNC Health Care is a leader in health promotion and disease promotion, so the division’s partnership with Green Box Foods was a logical choice.

Brian Boles will serve as Green Box Foods’ new managing director. Boles, who served as a vice president at Wells Fargo Bank for 11 years, has an extensive background in business strategy, development and implementation. He is also a huge proponent of healthy living and managing chronic diseases, and he donates time to the Friends of Disabled Adults and Children, Multiple Sclerosis Society and Safe House Outreach Mentor Program.

In addition to providing families with all natural foods and tools for healthy living, Green Box Foods also firmly believes in fostering and encouraging the healthy lifestyles of employees to improve both the health of the individuals and the fiscal health of businesses. Corporate health and wellness programs have a positive impact on morale, absenteeism, presenteeism and employee productivity.

Varicose Veins and Pregnancy: why it Happens and how to Treat it

Posted on | May 17, 2012 | No Comments

Varicose Veins and Pregnancy: why it Happens and how to Treat it











Dr. Cindy Asbjornsen, founder of the Vein Healthcare Center


South Portland, Maine (PRWEB) April 30, 2012

About forty percent of pregnant women will develop varicose veins, according to vein specialist Dr. Cindy Asbjornsen of the Vein Healthcare Center in Maine.

“Hormone surges are part of the biological process of pregnancy, and varicose veins are sometimes part of that process,” said Dr. Asbjornsen. “If mothers-to-be pay attention to their vein health, it can go a long way toward treating, or even preventing, a problem that has numerous solutions.”

Dr. Asbjornsen suggests a few tips to help decrease or prevent varicose veins during pregnancy:

    Wear graduated compression stockings, especially in the first trimester.
    Exercise often— even a brisk walk will help circulation and reduce symptoms.
    Frequently pump the foot (heel to toe), even if on bed rest.            
    Avoid tight clothes or high-heeled shoes.
    Gain only as much weight as recommended by the obstetrician.
    Take a pre-natal vitamin daily.

To better understand how varicose veins happen, here’s a quick review of how veins work. Veins carry blood from all the extremities back to the heart. The blood in the legs travels up against gravity, so when the valves in the veins become damaged, blood flows back into the legs to create a “pooling” effect. The hormone progesterone can act as a vasodilator— a hormone that opens or relaxes blood vessels— causing the valves in the veins to stretch significantly, sometimes to the point of damaging them. The result: varicose veins.

The first trimester is an especially important time to think about vein health. Women with known risk factors for venous disease should consider wearing compression stockings throughout the first three months of pregnancy and possibly longer. The most common risk factor is having a family history of venous disease.

Maternity graduated compression stockings are specially designed to fit more snugly at the ankles and calves and less so toward the top. The gradual change in compression helps the weak valves in the veins to circulate the blood more effectively. Though pregnancy compression stockings (and body garments) are available with a doctor’s prescription, many maternity stores also offer them. Accurate sizing is critical, so it is best to check with a doctor prior to purchasing any type of compression while pregnant.

The second and third trimester may also carry some risk of developing varicose veins. The volume of blood in a healthy woman increases to about 50% more than before the pregnancy, with the largest increase in the second trimester. With more volume to move, all of the blood vessels are under increased stress. In this final trimester, the uterus continues to expand and put pressure on the veins in the abdominal region. The most damage, however, seems to happen in the first trimester.

Many women find that their varicose veins go away a few months after labor, while others continue to suffer with them. There are many options available to treat varicose veins and typically cause very little pain and have high success rates.

Dr. Cindy Asbjornsen is the founder of the Maine Phlebology Association and the Vein Healthcare Center in Maine. Dr. Asbjornsen is certified by the American Board of Phlebology and cares for all levels of venous disease, including spider veins, varicose veins and venous stasis ulcers.

Sacramento Speakers Series Announces That President Bill Clinton Joins The 2012-2013 Season











2012-2013 Season


Sacramento, California (PRWEB) May 08, 2012

Sacramento Speakers Series announces an impressive list of political leaders, authors, scientists, and visionaries participating in the 8th season of the series. The Sacramento Speakers Series is a community lecture series that provides an open forum for a free discussion of timely and important issues by nationally acclaimed speakers and patrons of the Series. Managing principal and attorney Mitchell Ostwald describes the Series as “an extraordinary community experience that gives our patrons an opportunity to hear about and question renowned and influential people from a wide variety of backgrounds on an even wider variety of topics.” The speakers are chosen on the basis of their career achievements, unique expertise in their particular field of endeavor, and ability to communicate their particular passion to the audience.

The series kicks off on Tuesday October 23rd with Sanjay Gupta, MD awarding winning chief medical correspondent for CNN. His medical training and public health experience provides TV viewers with a profound insight to a wide range of topics including healthcare reform, fitness, military medicine and other areas.

President Bill Clinton, founder of the William J. Clinton Foundation and the 42nd President of the United States, will come to Sacramento to deliver his speech “Embracing our Common Humanity” on Tuesday, December 4th. President Clinton was the first Democratic president in six decades to be elected twice – first in 1992 and then in 1996. Under his leadership, the country enjoyed the strongest economy in generations and the longest economic expansion in US history, including the creation of more than 22 million jobs.

Thomas Friedman internationally renowned author, reporter, and New York Times columnist will be speaking Tuesday January 8th. Friedman is the recipient of three Pulitzer Prizes and the author of five bestselling books, among them “From Beirut to Jerusalem,” “The World Is Flat,” and “Hot, Flat, and Crowded.” While critics may take issue with his views, writings style, his penchant for excessive optimism, his support of the Iraq war and views on globalization, he is the writer much of the public looks to for straight talk about world events.

Michelle Rhee a leading advocate for school reform will be speaking Tuesday January 29th; Rhee founded The New Teacher Project in 1997, which has recruited 23,000 new teachers across the country. Under her leadership as Chancellor of D.C. Public Schools, the worst performing school district in the country at the same time saw double-digit growth in state reading and math scores among seventh, eighth and tenth graders. Rhee most recently founded StudentsFirst, an organization aiming to raise $ 1 billion to reform education in the nation, and is now a member of the Sacramento community.

Dr. Louise Leakey paleontologist, conservationist, educator and National Geographic explorer-in-residence will be speaking Wednesday February 27th; it’s the third generation of the famous Leakey family to dig for humanity’s past in East Africa. Louise first set foot in the region at age six weeks. Since then, she has spent considerable time on many field expeditions, and today she co-directs the Koobi Fora Research Project with her mother, Dr. Meave Leakey. Now an adjunct assistant professor in the Department of Anthropology, University of Stony Brook in New York, Dr. Leakey is helping to develop a major centre for human origins research that will include field programs for students. Louise is a Ph.D. graduate of London University, where her research focused on the influence of climate change 3.5 to 1.5 million years ago.

Dr. Robert Ballard – Deep-sea explorer, famous for his historic discovery of the wreckage of the Titanic more than 12,000 feet below the surface of the North Atlantic, will speak on Tuesday April 2nd 2013. A pioneer in the early use of deep-diving submarines, Ballard was part of the first manned expedition of the largest mountain range on Earth, the Mid-Ocean Ridge. Later, he led an expedition off the Galapagos Islands, during which he and his crew found new life forms, a discovery that has revolutionized understanding of the origin of life on the planet and increased the likelihood of discovering life elsewhere in the solar system.

Each of these extraordinary speakers will be seen at the Community Center Theater, in downtown Sacramento, except for President Bill Clinton, who will share his insights with us in the venerable Memorial Auditorium.

Tickets are available for the series online at sacramentospeakers.com or by phone 916.388.1100. BIG NAMES ARE COMING 2012-2013!

App Developer FPO Projects Unveils Its First Game; Star Sloth

Posted on | May 13, 2012 | No Comments

App Developer FPO Projects Unveils Its First Game; Star Sloth












(PRWEB) April 23, 2012

FPO Projects, the app developer that brought the world Catculator, unveils its first game,Star Sloth—featured in iTunes App Store’s “New and Noteworthy” section.

The mobile game for iOS devices, including the iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad (and optimized for the new iPad Retina display), uses touch-screen swipe technology to addictive effect.

In the world of the game, the main character, Sloth, has a hard time staying awake. Players help him keep his job, swiping the screen to deliver cheeseburgers to hungry customers throughout the cosmos. All the while, Sloth eludes obstacles like mine fields and space vortexes. The boss’s daughter, an obsessive sloth enthusiast, chases Sloth through the cosmos, while a galactic burger thief is determined to get Sloth fired.

“We love sloths and we love games, so this seemed like a natural fit,” says Paul Sutton, FPO Projects’ producer, who co-founded the company with fellow former Crispin Porter + Bogusky staffers Conor McCann, Luis Santi, Jr. and Jake Mikosh. “We like to find things that haven’t been done before, injecting them with a unique sensibility.”

Players can use tips they earn from deliveries to unlock delivery permits for new galaxies, as well as buy fun accessories for Sloth and his rocket. The game randomly generates delivery routes across the universe, which makes for endless gameplay.

Built in Adobe AIR, Star Sloth will be available for Android, NOOK and Kindle in the coming months.

Star Sloth follows on the heels of FPO’s successful 2011 Catculator. A staff pick in Apple’s App Store, Catculator is a loveable alternative to boring calculator applications. Visit the site: http://thecatculator.com/

ABOUT FPO PROJECTS

FPO Projects makes unique apps and games for mobile devices and/or desktops. Former CP+B staffers, Paul Sutton, Conor McCann, Luis Santi, Jr. and Jake Mikosh, founded the company in June 2011 with posts in Los Angeles and New York. Its first app, Catculator—a new breed of calculator for the iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch—became the number one educational app in Argentina, India, Indonesia, Pakistan and the Philippines in September 2011 (fpo.co).
