In conjunction with the World Sleep Day (WSD), which falls on March 17 this year, AmLife International Sdn Bhd held a sleep health showcase to advocate and raise awareness for sleep health at a media event at Berjaya Times Square Hotel, Kuala Lumpur on March 6, 2023.
This year marks the eighth year AmLife is organising the showcase with its long-time collaborator World Sleep Society and partner of three years, Taiwan Sleep Care Association (TSCA) under the theme “Sleep is Essential for Health”. This is a regional sleep education initiative covering Malaysia, Hong Kong and Taiwan.
Several international and local doctors and sleep experts shared their insights on sleep health in relations to body regeneration, anti-aging, nutrition and exercise at the event.
In his speech, AmLife founder and president Lew Mun Yee said sleep education is becoming increasingly important as sleep disorders have been linked to a number of chronic diseases such as Type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, obesity, depression and immunity-related illnesses.
“Over time, lack of good sleep can lead to degenerative diseases and scientific studies pointed out that sleep is the best way to boost your immune system and reduce your risk from virus infection.
“Sleep and aging are inter-connected as sleep disorders impact the body and immunity and overall functions and immunity, and accelerates aging,” he said.
AmLife also expounded on “The Secrets of Agelessness” through regenerative sleep.
Health clinical psychologist and sleep medicine specialist Dr Ariel B Neikrug from USA, shared on facts relating to age related regeneration and anti-aging.
“Sleep plays an important and vital role in the process of aging, our mental health and general well-being. Primarily sleep is involved in the regeneration and repair processes of our bodies and brains,” he said.
Aged care entrepreneur, innovator and doctor of medicine Dr Lim Geng Yan shared on cell degeneration and how immunity level is boosted through quality sleep and stem cell therapy.
“While current Covid treatment strategies cannot help damaged organ cells to regenerate, many medical studies show that mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) has the ability to regenerate damaged organ due to covid and that MSC can potentially help to reverse long covid side effects,” he said.
Nutritionist KS Chan and Dr. Choo Hao Jian who specialised in geriatrics and regenerative medicine shared their insights on achieving quality sleep through proper dietary nutrition and home care activities to help ease the body and mind into restful sleep.
“One way to improve our diet is to increase the intake of fruits and vegetables, and at the same time consume more lean meat. People should also avoid processed food at all costs,” said Chan.
Dr Choo said, “Quality sleep can be achieved by practicing circadian cycle, where we train our body to get used to a routine that regulates the sleep-wake cycle.
“A way to practice this is to turn off the lights when we get home after work, and to put down every electronic device so our body will automatically know that it is time to wind down.”
During the event, AmLife launched the “Sleep Better with AmLife” CSR campaign which aims to address common sleep issues in Malaysia.
Several lifestyle influencers will be inviting “sleep stories” from their readers and winning entries will be entitled to epigenetic test and professional medical consultation accordingly.
AmLife has also enlisted celebrity and TV host Hui Mei as its World Sleep Day ambassador this year.
At the event, AmLife also rolled out its new and revolutionary AmLife DeepZleep AmSonic, with regenerative sleep technology from Japan which provides three types of revolutionary therapy concepts, comprising Electric Potential Therapy, AmSonic Frequency Therapy and Thermal Therapy, all in a bedding form.
Lew said this combination of therapies provides the world’s first regenerative sleep for all-rounded physical and spiritual wellbeing by letting the body recharged when sleeping.
“This breakthrough treatment helps more people to delay aging and reduces diseases to enable all to enjoy a quality life. With stem cell therapy, one can grow older but still remain strong as the human body is fundamentally made up of cells, hence the consistent regeneration of new cells helps with the anti-aging process,” he added.
AmLife has been educating and helping people achieve better sleep and health through its electric potential therapy technology from Japan for the past 20 years. The company is currently making headways into regenerative medicine through stem cell therapy.
AmLife’s newly-opened AlphaCelle – touted as the first clinic to integrate stem cells, high electric potential and exosomes for a comprehensive regenerative treatment to help more people delay aging, reduce diseases and live a good quality life in old age.
“Our mission is to popularize stem cell therapy for all and allowing more and more people to have stem cell therapy and move towards a new and happy life,“ added Lew.
