World’s First Human Optimization Program


Neuroscience calisthenics, human optimization program

How Jean Fallacara Brings the World’s First Human Optimization Program in the Fitness Industry

World’s First Human Optimization Program

Jean Fallacara founder of Cyborggainz the new platform, brings the World’s First Human Optimization Program in the Fitness Industry

Calisthenics has dominated the fitness scene for a while now. It involves various movements performed to varying rhythms and intensity with almost no equipment. It is a kind of resistance training meant to help exercise large muscle groups.

The workout helps improve and maintain better form, builds strength, and enhances movement and flexibility as well. All of that sounds great, but you know how you can take it to the next level? Neuroscience Calisthenics.

New Jean Fallacara’s Human Optimization Program combines regular calisthenics training with aspects of neuroscience such as neuroplasticity and biohacking to significantly improve the effectiveness of your workouts.

About the Human Optimization Program:

According to Jean Fallacara, AKA the Cyborg, CEO, speaker, and biohacker, all great athletes know how to train their bodies. However, only exceptional athletes know to train their minds as well as their bodies to push their training to the maximum limit.

Accordingly, he has introduced the world’s first Human Optimization Program, which applies various concepts of neuroscience to a typical calisthenics’ workout.

The Workout Plan:

The program induces certain neurobiological effects to strengthen your motor pathways, helping you attain mastery over a particular skill that much faster. Any training that you do will become much stronger and faster under this program.

The program utilizes theories from biohacking and neuroplasticity to help athletes achieve better and faster results. Neuroplasticity refers to the part of the brain that is continually building muscle and altering the neural pathways according to the actions and behaviors you perform and the environment you are in.

If you keep repeating a particular action, your brain will start programming itself that way, and that’s why over time, certain behaviors and habits become almost second nature for you. Similarly, biohacking involves improving your health through small “hacks” that you make use of through diet and lifestyle changes.

For instance, getting enough hours of sleep, consuming proper food, using EEG devices, etc., are all examples of biohacking that athletes can use to improve their training. Therefore, using all these concepts, Jean Fallacara and his team of calisthenics experts and professional athletes and coaches, have come up with this comprehensive Human Optimization Program.

Rather than a one-size-fits-all plan, the program is designed to be flexible and adaptable to each individuals’ preferences and needs. It accounts for individual circumstances such as any previous injuries, and everyone’s personal goals and targets.

The Meal Plan:

The program isn’t limited to customized workout plans. It also offers customized meal plans for a more holistic program that can help you achieve your goals faster and in a healthy manner.

According to your goal, whether you want to trim down or bulk up, the personalized meal plans include a seven-day diet plan for the entire day. It covers everything from breakfast, lunch, dinner to snacks, and late-night meals.

Moreover, the plan has space for changes as well according to your preferences for that day. For instance, you can choose between having a vegetarian or paleo meal. The program also provides a shopping list so that you can gradually incorporate the Human Optimization Program into your lifestyle.

About Cyborggainz:

Cyborggainz is a new unique web application platform created by Jean Fallacara that offers a new approach to calisthenics training. The new web platoform Cyborgainz combines neuroscience to increase the brain’s neuroplasticity, create and strengthen motor pathways faster. This often makes is easier and faster to master any skills.

About Jean Fallacara:

Born in France, Jean Fallacara is a famous athlete who actively participates in rock climbing, running and other sports. He discovered calisthenics later on in life and deems it as his calling. He has studied biochemistry, immunology and genetics, biotechnology, and neurosciences.

Equipped with this knowledge, he has started numerous science-technology companies. At the moment, he is the founder and CEO of Z-CSI Corporation, a multimillion-dollar enterprise, involved in producing laboratory equipment for the biomedical market and founder of Cyborggainz.

Jean Fallacara is also the Author of the Book: Neuroscience Calisthenics: Hijack your Body Clock, In this book, Jean shares motivational stories about how he overcame ADD and powered through other tough situations throughout his life in order to help others in the same situation. The book sheds light on calisthenics and Neuroplasticity, how to use exercise to strengthen your mind, and much more.

NIRA Debuts NIRA Temp – The First Wearable Smart Thermometer To Help Stem the Transmission of COVID-19 for Individuals and Organizations


The NIRA Temp thermometer is the proactive way to maintain a healthy community. It’s so simple and easy to use; you simply set it in the morning and forget it! Most importantly, it is accurate, secure and effective.

NIRA Skin (http://www.NIRAskin.com) announces the launch of NIRA Temp (http://www.NIRAtemp.com), a wearable smart thermometer that provides real-time insight into the users’ temperature and sends alerts at the first sign of a health concern. The thermometer goes on like a bandage and works 24/7 syncing to the NIRA Temp Apps to remotely and effectively check users’ temperatures. Using similar cutting-edge microchip technology from their NIRA Skincare Laser, the NIRA team designed a wearable smart thermometer, allowing people and organizations to gain insight into early fever detection by receiving customizable alerts.

The NIRA Temp thermometer is designed and assembled in the USA and is FDA, HIPPA, DGPR and CCPA compliant with accuracy within 0.2 degrees Fahrenheit (0.1 Celsius). The wearable smart thermometer comes charged with a 365-day battery life and works 24/7 in a water-resistant, comfortable design. The secure mobile apps allow for custom alerts, history, medical note taking, and family sharing. The device takes measurements regularly throughout the day and works with an algorithm that predicts when health is of concern. Made to monitor health in real-time for families, schools, businesses, organizations and healthcare systems, the NIRA Temp app provides a visual display of temperature over time displaying individualized data. Automated alerts are configured by the user to send messages by SMS/text, email or on-phone notifications. Users may share data with their families and organizations through the app’s opt-in features. Organizations can access group data through a cloud-based API and web-based organizational dashboard, all with NIRA Temp’s high-level of security and privacy using encryption and other privacy methods.

“During the COVID-19 quarantine, the US effectively shut down all social interactions because of health and safety concerns. At NIRA, we wanted to utilize our technology to enable schools, factories, healthcare systems, offices and other organization to resume campus activities in the most safe and effective way possible. Knowing that contactless thermometers are often unreliable and daily testing can be impractical and expensive, we knew that we could create something that worked better,” says President & Founder David Bean. Bean, a seasoned entrepreneur who developed successful laser technologies for professional medical, surgical, military, home and telecom systems, continued “The NIRA Temp thermometer is the proactive way to maintain a healthy community. It’s so simple and easy to use; you simply set it in the morning and forget it! Most importantly, it is accurate, secure and effective; with the NIRA Temp thermometer, you can feel more confident in social situations, especially within organizations where you know safety monitoring is the norm so that disease spreading is controlled. ”

146 million people in the USA work on campuses that require close social interactions. This includes students, healthcare workers, military personnel, and nursing home residents. NIRA Temp devices are intended to be used in conjunction with other protection measures such as face masks and reasonable social distancing. NIRA Temp is applied under the armpit in the Axillary area with an adhesive bandage sticker. The axillary-area temperature is medically-accepted and accurate for medical decision making. NIRA Temp’s small size is designed for comfort and discrete use so users may wear all-day long without disruption to their normal activity. In addition to use with families and campus organizations, the NIRA Temp is applicable for use in nursing homes, hospitals and other healthcare organizations where the risk of disease spread is greatest, the risk to patients is greatest, and the need for constant monitoring is most valuable. “Automated wireless temperature monitoring reduces bottlenecks as compared to manual monitoring at building entrances,” states Cindy Le, NIRA Temp Director of Marketing. ”And for healthcare workers, NIRA Temp enables real-time measurements without having to enter at-risk patient rooms saving time and personal protective equipment.”

The device is available for pre-order at http://www.NIRAtemp.com for both individuals and organizations. The NIRA Temp device comes with a one-month starter supply of mounting bandages and free mobile apps. Pre-orders for organizational devices include a 1-year subscription to the organization API and web-based organizational dashboard. Orders are scheduled to ship in volume early August.

best value outcomes for Sepsis in Hattiesburg, MS

“Dexur’s value analysis tracks a patient’s episode of care from the date of admission for 90 days and includes the index hospitalization, rehospitalization, home health, nursing home, and ED costs.”

Dexur’s analysis of medicare claims of hospitals within a 50-mile radius of Hattiesburg, MS, showed that South Central Regional Medical Center, Forrest General Hospital, and Merit Health Wesley had the best value outcomes over a 90 day episode for Sepsis. Dexur’s value analysis tracks a patient’s episode of care from the date of admission for 90 days and includes the index hospitalizations, rehospitalization, home health, nursing home, and ED costs. Total cost of care data helps patients make appropriate choices and helps local ACOs, such as Hattiesburg Clinic ACO, make appropriate referral choices. The analysis was risk-adjusted, for alive and non-hospice patients and was done at the DRG level, specifically DRG 871: Septicemia Or Severe Sepsis Without MV >96 Hours With Major Complication Or Comorbidity, to adjust for complications and comorbidities.

South Central Regional Medical Center’s total cost of care over a 90 day episode was $20,003 (for the period between July 2016 and June 2019). The index hospitalization cost was $10,615 and the average rehospitalization cost per hospitalization was $6,130. The cost per rehospitalization was at an average of $16,996. Meanwhile, the average ED costs per hospitalization (when ED is involved) was $909.

Forrest General Hospital’s total cost of care over a 90 day episode was $22,575 (for the period between July 2016 and June 2019). The index hospitalization cost was $10,188 and the average rehospitalization cost per hospitalization was $6,780. The cost per rehospitalization was at an average of $18,902. Meanwhile, the average ED costs per hospitalization (when ED is involved) was $1,169.

Merit Health Wesley’s total cost of care over a 90 day episode was $23,040 (for the period between July 2016 and June 2019). The index hospitalization cost was $11,160 and the average rehospitalization cost per hospitalization was $6,750. The cost per rehospitalization was at an average of $21,151.

MINT Dentistry Feeding Those in Need with Grocery Giveaways


Mint Dentistry Employees Volunteer at Grocery Giveaways

“We just want to do our part and try to help people out,” Dr. Harrison said. “Serving families by providing food is an honor–but providing them hope through that donation means even more.”

MINT dentistry’s goal of putting smiles on people’s faces doesn’t stop during a pandemic: To help a community in need, the dentistry practice is providing groceries for people who are experiencing food insecurity. More than 2,000 families have already benefited from the food donation boxes that have created 84,000 meals, and another grocery giveaway is planned for July 11. It’s all part of a commitment to serving the community from MINT dentistry founder Dr. Field Harrison and his wife, Sabrina, who feel compelled to do something to help those affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, and hope others are inspired to do the same.

“We just want to do our part and try to help people out,” Dr. Harrison said. “Serving families by providing food is an honor–but providing them hope through that donation means even more.”

The next grocery giveaway takes place Saturday, July 11, at the MINT dentistry in Bishop Arts at 2433 W Davis Street in Dallas from 9 to 10:30 a.m.

During a grocery giveaway, more than 500 boxes of groceries purchased by MINT from Minnie’s Food Pantry are given away, each containing a week’s worth of food. People can simply line up in their vehicles to receive a box (touch-free, from volunteers wearing masks), and a message of hope. Each box contains a week’s worth of meals and includes non-perishable items like spaghetti, rice, peanut butter, canned goods and more. The box also contains something important for a healthy smile: a full-sized tube of toothpaste from MINT dentistry.

If you or someone you know is in need of groceries, please join the MINT dentistry Grocery Giveaway on July 11. There is no need to sign up – just show up! Giving is first-come, first-served in a drive-thru style pick-up line with no contact (following CDC guidelines). Guests can check the @mintdentistry Instagram for updates on where the car line will start.

As a result of the effects of COVID-19 on the economy and nation, one out of every six families in America is struggling with food insecurity. The global pandemic has put many individuals and businesses out of work and many are in need of weekly groceries to feed their own families. Through several weeks of grocery giveaways, MINT dentistry has provided more than 2,000 boxes of food to North Texans in need.

Though the cause of hunger is serious, the grocery giveaway events have a celebratory vibe: MINT dentistry employs a local DJ to play music, volunteers dance while they assist, and volunteers hold signs with messages like “We Love You” in English and Spanish. There are smiles all around, waves from volunteers, and honks from appreciative recipients, who find something else in their box when they arrive home – a personal message from MINT dentistry that expresses best wishes and a prayer for the recipients of the box.

“Our hearts broke when we saw news reports of the long lines of people who needed something as simple as a meal,” Sabrina Harrison said. “This is our opportunity to share a message of hope and love with everyone. We are grateful for our colleagues who have stepped in to help, too.”

Through his community service and through his dental work, Dr. Harrison is passionate about healing pain—whether that’s dental pain, spiritual pain, mental pain, loss of dignity, or financial pain. Even before he graduated from dental school, Dr. Harrison was volunteering in a clinic offering free dental care in South Dallas, and traveling to Romania with other doctors and dentists to end a village’s suffering with tooth and jaw pain. Dr. Harrison and Sabrina Harrison are devout Christians who welcome those of all faiths, and who believe strongly in giving back to their communities.

MINT dentistry has more than 50 locations in Dallas and Houston, with skilled support staff that have introduced discount and dental insurance to thousands without insurance or those whose insurance has let them down. To learn more, or to schedule an appointment, visit MINTdentistry.com, call 214-821-MINT, or visit them @MINTdentistry on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

Shores Global Teams with Spry Therapeutics to Provide Virus-blocking Soft Goods Onboard Cruise Ships


Spry Pure Pillow with Pneumapure Filter Technology

We are thrilled to be able to offer the cruise industry such an essential component to guest safety that will not only minimize the spread of germs onboard, but also provide guests with peace of mind as travel picks up again.

Shores Global, a leading cruise line interior designer and furniture supplier, announced today that it has expanded its portfolio to include Spry Therapeutics’ soft-surface filter technology, Pneumapure®. This strategic alliance will allow Shores Global to promote the patented filter technology to the cruise and hospitality industry, throughout the United States. The introduction of Spry’s germ-blocking solution in the U.S. also enables Shores to provide safer, cleaner and more sustainable soft goods to cruise lines on a global scale, without compromising comfort.

The emergence and spread of COVID-19 around the U.S. and the globe has spurred calls for new methods and procedures that help minimize the spread of viruses, bacteria, and other potentially deadly pathogens. One of the biggest areas of concern for the spread of pathogens is soft surfaces (i.e., bedding, lounge furniture, and seat cushions), as these are typically long-term reservoirs for contamination. Despite standard cleaning protocols, the cores of these soft goods cannot be effectively cleaned between each use, putting both guests and crew members at risk for infection.

Pneumapure technology has been independently tested and proven to block even the smallest “superbugs” — as small as .02 microns — from entering or exiting any soft surface to which it’s applied, helping prevent the transmission of harmful pathogens. The Pneumapure filter is the essential component to all Spry Pure products.

“Through its relationship with Spry, Shores is the first marine supplier to offer a truly clean alternative to soft surfaces, protecting guests and crew,” says Susan Sadolin, Owner and CEO of Shores Global. “We are thrilled to be able to offer the cruise industry such an essential component to guest safety that will not only minimize the spread of germs onboard, but also provide guests with peace of mind as travel picks up again.”

“It is our mission to help not only the cruise industry, but hospitality as a whole, understand and address the dangers of soft surfaces and offer effective and affordable alternatives to keep guests and staff safe,” says Bill Purdy, CEO and Co-Founder of Spry. “We look forward to working with Shores to ensure a higher standard for guest safety, without compromising comfort.”
