Roche and Somatix Teams at Beta-i

Somatix leadership presented the results of its brand-new medication compliance and hydration capabilities that were trained and launched in Portuguese hospitals and clinics as part of the Building Tomorrow Together – Innovation in Dementia Program with Roche Pharmaceuticals, Multicare, and Beta-i Collaborative Innovation. The project was part of an open innovation initiative powered by Beta-i, in which four startups, including Somatix, were selected to conduct their pilots in public or private institutions in Portugal. Somatix is honored to be part of this project to improve the quality of life of patients with dementia.

Using its unique artificial intelligence-enabled technology, Somatix is able to provide powerful clinical insights from wearables worn by patients with early to mid-stage dementia, including hydration, falls and medication compliance. Dehydration and missed medication dosages are potentially preventable events that otherwise lead to injury and illness. With the combination of remote monitoring, telehealth, and Somatix’s SafeBeing^TM platform, the goal is to keep these patients safer and healthier while preserving their independence, and to improve their quality of life either at home or in an independent living facility. Partnering with Roche and two major health providers in Portugal, Campus Neurologico Senior (cnscampus.com) and CUF (cuf.pt), Somatix demonstrated the first successful clinical use of its ground-breaking medication compliance feature.

Dr. Charles Herman, CEO of Somatix, commented, “Somatix’s AI-powered Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) platform for healthcare providers uniquely uses wearable-enabled gesture detection to yield powerful clinical insights to improve patient outcomes with the help of strategic partners like Roche and Multicare, our sponsors; CNS and CUF, our healthcare provider partners; and Beta-i, the open innovation program developer; bringing groundbreaking technology to the aging population in Europe. We also worked closely with our ecosystem partner, Amazon Web Services, to build our first cloud-based server in Europe.”

“Somatix is happy to report that the medication compliance feature was accurately able to detect pills taken and missed with over 70% accuracy. Based on the experience with Roche and its partners, we have already found opportunities to further improve the accuracy of our medication intake algorithm and plan to reach close to 90% accuracy in the next phase of our project. We also observed close to 95% accuracy in detecting the amount of fluid consumed over a day,” says Dr. Amit Sawant, COO of Somatix.

Somatix and Roche plan to expand the partnership later this year, bringing Somatix’s platform to more outpatients with early and mid-stage dementia in an effort to keep them safer and healthier in their own environments.

Following a successful launch, Space Tea and Sprouts are committed to providing customers with adaptogenic mushroom drinks that contain healthy ingredients, including Reishi mushrooms and Lion’s Mane mushrooms, in an amazing-tasting beverage.

LOS ANGELES, July 11, 2023 (Newswire.com)
–
Space Tea‘s partnership with Sprouts Farmers Market will now include a prominent placement in chain-wide distribution beginning in July with the launch of iced tea and lemonade beverages, such as best-selling flavor Golden Mango, as well as Original and Watermelon flavors.   

“We are very excited about the national launch of Space Tea inside the beverage aisle at Sprouts,” Gabriel Heymann, co-founder and CEO, said. “Their focus on natural, better-for-you products is central to why we created Space Tea.”  

After a successful initial trial run in Sprouts, the new launch is a permanent partnership that will feature Space Tea, the world’s first adaptogenic mushroom iced tea and lemonade beverage, in the grocery chain’s tea/beverage aisle centerpiece, displaying the Original, Golden Mango, and Watermelon flavors. 

“Sprouts was our first national retail partnership and has proven to be a great match with what we provide, a refreshing blend of iced tea and lemonade, and what the store offers in terms of healthy options for the consumer,” Heymann said. “We are transitioning to a more permanent location within Sprouts as we evolve our partnership.”  

As one of the fastest-growing retailers in the U.S., Sprouts is an ideal location for Space Tea’s certified organic, non-GMO, gluten-free, and kosher products, which uses a blend of non-psychoactive, functional Reishi and Lion’s Mane mushrooms for enhanced uplifting energy, focus, mood-boosting properties, and mental clarity.  

According to Research and Markets, the global functional beverage market is expected to reach $208 billion in 2027 due to the growing popularity of functional mushrooms found in a variety of healthcare and pharmaceutical products.   

“Space Tea offers high-quality ingredients that have been used for centuries to promote focus and mental clarity,” Heymann said. “Sprouts is our latest expansion that enables more people to experience the potential benefits of Reishi and Lion’s Mane mushroom in an amazing-tasting beverage format.”  

According to tamimteas.com, functional mushrooms with Lion’s Mane, Reishi, and Chaga have been used as natural remedies to soothe the body for centuries, supporting digestion, energy, the immune system, mental clarity, mood, relaxation, and sleep. Adaptogens are herbs that can help the body’s stress response systems and improve the ability to adapt and restore after stress exposure.

Since its launch in August 2021, Space Tea has quickly become a bestseller of iced tea and lemonade beverages across Southern California and is also available at Bristol Farms, Earthbar, Erewhon Market, Lazy Acres, Mother’s Market, and Sun Life.
