KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA - Media OutReach Newswire - 14 May 2025 - Ai Mediq SA today officially launched Intermittent Hypoxia-Hyperoxia Therapy (IHHT), a science-backed, non-invasive breathing therapy that strengthens the cardiovascular system at its cellular core. By training the body to adapt to fluctuating oxygen levels, IHHT enhances heart function, improves metabolic efficiency, supports cognitive health, and reduces inflammation.IHHT cycles between low-oxygen (hypoxia) and high-oxygen (hyperoxia) breathing intervals, acting like "interval training for your cells." It optimizes oxygen use, lowers inflammation, and boosts resilience without the risks associated with continuous hypoxia.Rooted in oxygen-sensing molecular mechanisms, a Nobel Prize-winning discovery, IHHT triggers regenerative cellular processes. Devices like ReOxy® and HIBERG® use Self-Regulated Treatment (SRT) technology to personalize sessions based on real-time data such as heart rate and oxygen saturation, ensuring optimal and safe results.A 2023 review published inanalyzed 16 clinical studies ( https://www.mdpi.com/2218-1989/13/2/181 ), confirming IHHT's benefits across cardiovascular, cognitive, and metabolic health:Beyond the proven benefits, IHHT enhances cognitive function, supports metabolism and longevity, improves athletic recovery, and reduces systemic inflammation.Once reserved for elite athletes and clinical trials, IHHT is now accessible to both medical professionals and health-conscious individuals:ReOxy® is a CE-certified medical device designed for clinical settings. It delivers fully automated IHHT protocols tailored to individual patients, making it ideal for cardiology, rehabilitation, and integrative medicine practices.HIBERG® adapts the same core technology for personal use, offering guided breathing sessions to support recovery, stress relief, sleep, and energy balance. It's a powerful wellness solution for anyone seeking performance and longevity.Both devices are powered by SRT-Technology, ensuring personalised, safe, and effective treatment every session.Hashtag: #AiMediqSA #IHHT

How to stay safe and well in the scorching heat
Extreme heat can quickly lead to a range of health issues, especially when the body's core temperature rises above 40°C – at which point, vital organs begin to suffer. (Bernama pic) KUALA LUMPUR : The heatwave gripping the nation is more than just a matter of discomfort – it poses a real threat to public health. Last week, the meteorological department issued Level 1 heatwave alerts – triggered when maximum daily temperatures range between 35°C and 37°C – for six areas nationwide. The heat is largely attributed to the southwest monsoon, which typically brings drier weather and intense heat. These conditions are expected to last until September. Extreme heat can quickly lead to a range of health issues, especially when the body's core temperature rises above 40°C. At that point, vital organs begin to suffer. Recognising early symptoms and responding quickly is crucial. Among the first signs is heat rash or prickly heat, an itchy red irritation caused when sweat ducts become blocked. Heat cramps, on the other hand, result from salt and fluid loss due to excessive sweating, causing painful muscle spasms, often during or after strenuous activity. If the heat strain continues, it can lead to heat exhaustion – the body's way of signalling dehydration and salt depletion. Symptoms include nausea, headache, dizziness, fatigue, excessive thirst, and heavy sweating. Left untreated, this can escalate into heat stroke, a life-threatening emergency in which the body loses its ability to cool down. Warning signs include confusion, unconsciousness, and seizures. Unlike the earlier stages, sweating may stop entirely. What to do in an emergency Prompt action can save lives. Here's what you can do if someone shows early signs of heat-related illness. Heat rash or heat cramps: Stop all activity, move into the shade, rest, and hydrate – preferably with isotonic drinks, which help replenish electrolytes lost through sweat.

Heat exhaustion: Seek immediate medical attention at the nearest clinic or hospital. Left untreated, it could progress to heat stroke. Seek immediate medical attention at the nearest clinic or hospital. Left untreated, it could progress to heat stroke. Heat stroke: This is a medical emergency, so call 999 immediately. Move the person to a cool place, remove excess clothing, and begin cooling methods such as fanning, applying damp towels, or using cool water. If the person is conscious, offer small sips of isotonic drink. Don't leave the individual alone until help arrives. Try to avoid outdoor activities in peak heat hours between 11am and 3pm, and always dress sensibly for the climate. Staying healthy in the heat Heat-related illnesses are largely preventable. The key is awareness and proactive care. Here are essential tips: Stay hydrated: Drink water consistently throughout the day, not just when thirsty. Avoid alcohol and caffeine. Isotonic drinks are helpful, especially during prolonged outdoor exposure. Drink water consistently throughout the day, not just when thirsty. Avoid alcohol and caffeine.

Protect the vulnerable: Check in regularly on the elderly, young children, and those with chronic health conditions. Many may dismiss the rising temperatures, thinking Malaysians are used to the heat. But it's important to remember that this is not your typical Malaysian weather. Ignoring the warning signs could prove dangerous, so stay alert, stay cool, and stay safe.

Ispire Malaysia says Johor plant operating above board
Health minister Dzulkefly Ahmad had said that the Cabinet would decide on the fate of Ispire Malaysia Sdn Bhd's operations in Senai, Johor. (LinkedIn pic) PETALING JAYA : Ispire Malaysia Sdn Bhd today affirmed that its plant in Senai, Johor, which manufactures electronic cigarette devices, is fully compliant with local laws and regulations. In a statement, the firm said it operates under stringent procedures to ensure that all manufacturing activities at its Johor facility are exclusively for export purposes. 'To date, Ispire Malaysia exclusively manufactures semi-finished hardware products destined solely for export. 'These products do not contain any nicotine or cannabis – liquid or gel – and thus are not subject to the health ministry's regulations under the Control of Smoking Products for Public Health Act 2024,' it said. It added that the products manufactured in its Johor facility are not marketed, sold, or distributed within Malaysia and not accessible to local consumers. All finished products are exported to regulated international markets such as the US and UK where they are approved for sale by local regulators, the company said. The firm also said that references cited in recent reports were largely drawn from Ispire's official US website and pertained to its business-to-business sales operations in jurisdictions where cannabis and related products are legal. 'These statements do not accurately reflect the operations of Ispire Malaysia, which strictly adheres to all Malaysian laws and regulatory requirements/frameworks,' it said. Health think tank CodeBlue previously reported that Ispire produces nicotine and cannabis-related vaping products, and that its devices are used by clients to fill cartridges with cannabis oils in global markets. The report cited an investor presentation in Las Vegas in April, published on YouTube on May 6, which stated that Ispire produces 'mainly cannabis-related products' in its Malaysian manufacturing facility, which has up to seven production lines. In a statement last week, the health ministry confirmed that the government had issued Ispire an interim nicotine manufacturing licence to produce e-cigarettes with nicotine in its plant in Johor, together with local council approval. However, CodeBlue noted that the ministry's June 2 statement did not mention the plant's production of cannabis vaporisers, which reportedly began in February 2024. Ispire Malaysia today said that any production of nicotine-based products, if initiated, would be strictly for export and subject to formal approval by all relevant government agencies at both federal and state levels. Yesterday, health minister Dzulkefly Ahmad said that the Cabinet would decide on the fate of Ispire's operations in Malaysia.

Pushing for births: China mandates epidurals to ease labour pain
HONG KONG, June 9 — China said that by the end of this year all tertiary level hospitals must offer epidural anaesthesia during childbirth, a move it said would help promote a 'friendly childbearing environment' for women. Tertiary hospitals, those with more than 500 beds, must provide epidural anaesthesia services by 2025, while secondary hospitals — those containing more than 100 beds — must provide the services by 2027, China's National Health Commission (NHC) said in a statement last week. Authorities are struggling to boost birth rates in the world's second largest economy after China's population fell for a third consecutive year in 2024 with experts warning the downturn will worsen in the coming years. Around 30 per cent of pregnant women in China receive anaesthesia to relieve pain during childbirth, compared with more than 70 per cent in some developed countries, the official China Daily said. The World Health Organization recommends epidurals for healthy pregnant women requesting pain relief and it is widely utilised in many countries around the world, including France, where around 82 per cent of pregnant women opt to have one, and in the United States and Canada where more than 67 per cent do. The move will 'improve the comfort level and security of medical services' and 'further enhance people's sense of happiness and promote a friendly childbearing environment,' the NHC said. A growing number of provinces across China are also beginning to include childbirth anaesthesia costs as part of their medical insurance schemes to encourage more women to have children. High childcare costs as well as job uncertainty and a slowing economy have discouraged many young Chinese from getting married and starting a family. In June, health authorities in China's southwestern Sichuan province proposed to extend marriage leave up to 25 days and maternity leave up to 150 days, to help create a 'fertility-friendly society.' — Reuters
