February is Pet Dental Health Month

YourUpdateTV

Dental disease affects 80% of adult dogs and 96% of senior dogs[1], but new data from WHIMZEES ® by Wellness ® finds that very few Gen Z and Millennial pet parents are brushing their dog’s teeth daily, and less than one-half (44%) could list the signs of disease to their vet.[2] With February being Pet Dental Health Month, it is the perfect opportunity to start a proper doggy dental routine. Recently, Dr. Danielle Bernal, veterinarian with WHIMZEES ® by Wellness ®, participated in a nationwide satellite media tour to discuss pet dental health and what pet parents can do to establish a healthy routine. A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/cI_Hd6OfAIw Ideally, pet parents should be thinking about their dog’s teeth the same way they do their own. When it comes to at-home care, daily brushing of a dog’s teeth with a toothbrush and special canine toothpaste works, but pet parents often face toothbrush troubles.In fact, WHIMZEES by Wellness found that Gen Z and Millennial pet parents’ dogs have given side eye (58%) or run away (41%) at the sight of one. “If you are struggling with brushing your dog’s teeth consistently, incorporating a daily dental chew can be an excellent resource to help maintain your dog’s dental care and keep those tails wagging,” said Dr. Danielle Bernal. “In addition to daily dental care, it’s important to recognize the signs of periodontal disease, such as discoloration, broken or loose teeth, super stinky breath, reduced appetite and inflamed gums. By incorporating a daily dental chew like WHIMZEES by Wellness, pet parents can ensure they’re treating their dogs well and give them healthy smiles to live happier and healthier lives together.” WHIMZEES by Wellness all-natural dental treats allows pet parents to treat dogs well by combining the joy of treats with health benefits of supporting healthy teeth and gums. By giving just one WHIMZEES treat a day to fight bacteria that resurfaces daily, dogs get twice the cleaning power because WHIMZEES last three times longer to provide more cleaning time.[3] They are thoughtfully engineered with grooves and ridges to provide dogs with both chomping and cleaning, making WHIMZEES the treat that treats them well. WHIMZEES ® by Wellness ® dental treats are conveniently available at pet specialty retailers, national retailers and online.

About Dr. Danielle Bernal Danielle Bernal, D.V.M., has over a decade of experience in veterinary medicine, specializing in animal nutrition. In her role as on-staff veterinarian at Wellness Pet Company, maker of premium natural food and treats for dogs and cats, including WHIMZEES ® by Wellness ®, she educates pet parents and retailers alike on the importance of natural ingredients like wholesome meats and nutrient-rich superfoods and the highest quality standards. She passionately believes that proper nutrition helps pets lead happier, healthier lives and she shares that message with pet parents [1] Ozy, Sweeney, Dog Owners Have a New Obsession: Dental Health for Their Pets, March 2019 [2] Conducted in December 2022, Pollfish collected data via an online survey from a random sampling of 1,000 Gen Z and Millennial (ages 18-41) dog parents identified as demographically representative of the U.S. population.

Introducing Astraverse: Black-Led Startup Building The First Play-to-Wear Fashion Metaverse

G2M Digital

Led by a team of energetic, innovative, black designers and digital artists, Astraverse.xyz is on a mission to revolutionise digital fashion experience. By building a virtual world where physical and digital (tech folks call it ‘phygital’) fashion blend perfectly, Astraverse reinvents the way we will stay fashionable in the near future with their 'play-to-wear’ concept where one can win fashion pieces, delivered to their door steps, through their proprietary games. If you were ever hooked on Sims or other games with fashion at its core, you will be familiar with what Astraverse is building. In this universe that the team has created, the possibilities are endless. This gamified retail experience in the metaverse, or what the team has coined “Play-To-Wear'', is here to stay. “We are adding a ‘meta-commerce’ backend to the gaming front to create a global, sustainable fashion platform for the next generation of retail shoppers,” commented Delz Erinle, Founder of Astraverse.xyz. The team is now on a mission to build the first virtual world for gamified retail. Everything happens by jumping into a virtual world with your avatar - with Astraverse, you can now interact with the brands close to your heart, collecting digital coins or landing your hands on mystery boxes from these brands through games and fashion quests found on the metaverse. "It’s the perfect time to things different, almost 10 years since Amazon came online and introduced a new way of shopping; the stars have aligned to reinvent fashion retail and gaming gives us the tools to achieve this," mentioned Niyi Okeowo, Art Direction Lead and Co-founder of Astraverse.xyz at the Astraverse2050 launch party last month in Lagos, Nigeria. New Data from Roblox has also illustrated just how big 2022 was for digital fashion on the virtual world platform. In September, on the heels of its New York Fashion Week show, Carolina Herrera worked with model Karlie Kloss and creator Lovespun to turn one of its runway gowns into a Roblox dress. The digital dress, which was released for 500 Robux (approximately $5), sold out within hours and were resold for over $5,000 in the following weeks on secondary markets. Industrywide, there is also a sustained interest in gamified digital fashion. Some of the notable collaborations include Ralph Lauren on Fortnite; Burberry on Minecraft; and Blankos Block Party and Dior in Gran Turismo 7. More recently, Calvin Klein opened an online gaming experience with avatar company Ready Player Me — a fitting choice for the brand to begin their phygital offering to their customers. Building since 2020 before the metaverse hype cycle began, the Astraverse.xyz team has made great progress. The Astraverse team has since received grants from Epic Games & Meta, and garnered over 1000 demo testers for the 3 iterations they had conducted at Dcentral Austin, Zebu Live London & NFT London. They also managed to attract a 100+ brand waitlist and have grown their community to 20k members, while being accelerated by University of Cambridge I4SF, Nvidia Inception Programme, DeFine, Technation, KPMG. The team believes strongly in a common goal - to add “metacommerce” in a futuristic-yet-familiar way that brings a level of physicality to the e-commerce experience. The Astraverse team has since planned for a lot of partnerships in the upcoming years, including a launch with a global retailer that has everyone excited on how gaming and web3 to create a new experience that makes fashion retail more gamified and sustainable. When asked about the next milestone, the team commented to look out for the upcoming release of their 1st Play-to-Wear event - the Astra Mystery Box Challenge, scheduled to launch in February at NFT Paris. For this challenge, Astraverse has partnered with several brands for their players to win their apparels through games on Astraverse. For a more personal touch with the team at Astraverse, tune in to this exclusive executive interview with the core team at Astraverse.xyz and G2M Digital to find out more on what they are building on the ground. Stay updated with the upcoming news from Astraverse.xyz by following their Twitter or Instagram. Contact Details Delz +44 7423 506633 team@thrill.digital Company Website https://www.astraverse.xyz/

Dr. Muneeb Shah– TikTok’s Famous “DermDoctor”- Joins CORTINA to Broaden Access to Dermatology Care

Cortina Health

Dr. Muneeb Shah– known widely in social media as “ DermDoctor ” or “ Doctorly ” is the #1 dermatology influencer worldwide. With an ever-increasing number of followers reaching over 20 million across his platforms, Dr. Shah has become a trusted advisor for anyone seeking skincare education and dermatology, by creating content that is as informative as it is entertaining. He is a board-certified dermatologist with a passion for skincare education and improving healthcare access. “DermDoctor” recognizes social media as a powerful tool in bringing healthcare education to millions of people who lack the resources to get it otherwise. Dr. Shah points out that, “There is a real access issue in the United States with healthcare. In certain areas, you cannot see a dermatologist…so there is a massive gap between patients and medical care that needs to be filled. ” It is precisely this gap he seeks to fill, debunking skin-related myths and guiding his online community in their skin and dermatology needs. Furthermore, he emphasizes the importance of board-certified dermatologists in diagnosing and treating skin conditions and the impactful role teledermatology can play in providing access to proper medical care: “When access to an in-person visit is not feasible, many skin conditions can be diagnosed and treated virtually by a dermatologist with proper data. Pairing Cortina’s next-generation technology with its network of board-certified dermatologists is the innovative solution dermatology patients need. That’s why I am proud to be advising Cortina’s team to improve access.” In addition to bringing attention to a seamless solution for diagnosing and treating skin conditions, Dr. Shah is passionate about minimizing misdiagnosis. A common condition that gets overlooked is rosacea as it typically resembles acne or a sunburn. Dr. Shah and Cortina’s first of many educational assets under the medical content advisor role is an informational YouTube video that can be found on Doctorly, discussing key indicators and treatments for both skin conditions in depth. Cortina Health is the only all-inclusive teledermatology platform providing patients with access to board-certified dermatologists who diagnose and prescribe personalized compounded medications which are shipped directly to the patient’s door. Cortina offers convenient, affordable and effective dermatology care to treat the most common skin conditions in all 50 states, no insurance required.

This is a significant step in our goal to democratize dermatology care. His expertise and reach combined with Cortina’s capabilities and network of board-certified dermatologists, strengthen our commitment to patients seeking dermatology care anytime, anywhere. We are delighted to count Dr. Shah among our leadership as we merge technology, medicine, and high-quality care for all”, states Dr. Maclellan.

Family-owned and headquartered on Vancouver’s North Shore, Parissa was founded in 1983 by chemical engineer Azar Moayeri. After immigrating to Vancouver from her native Iran, Moayeri noticed a gap in the market for chemical-free hair removal solutions. That’s when Moayeri took matters into her own hands, formulating Canada’s first all-natural hair removal product from the comfort of her kitchen. From its upstart beginnings to today, Parissa’s mission has remained constant: to reinvent home hair removal for every consumer and make it a simple part of one's self-care routine. Designed for women and men alike, Parissa’s product assortment includes sugar wax, hard wax and warm wax to meet every waxing preference and need. Its streamlined waxing kits are easy to use and contain all the necessary components for achieving smooth and healthy skin results for up to eight weeks. “Forty years ago, I set out to create a product that addressed an important need in the hair removal category.
