ZEBRA Launches THE LIP GLOSS - CLEAR, Continuing Its Mission to Deliver Elevated Non-Toxic Personal Care
This latest launch marks a significant milestone for ZEBRA as it moves beyond oral care into broader categories of personal wellness. True to the brand's founding mission, the gloss is formulated with a short, transparent list of nourishing ingredients, free from synthetic dyes, artificial fragrances, parabens, and known endocrine disruptors. Each element of the formula was selected with purpose, reflecting ZEBRA's signature approach: black and white ingredient standards – no gray areas.
'We deserve products that are both beautiful and biologically supportive,' said Thatcher. 'This gloss represents years of careful formulation, without shortcuts.'
Key Features of THE LIP GLOSS - CLEAR:
THE LIP GLOSS - CLEAR builds on ZEBRA's rapid growth in the oral care category, where it became known for its hydroxyapatite-free formulas. While hydroxyapatite is often widely promoted as a 'safe fluoride alternative,' ZEBRA took a different approach based on emerging research on micro- and nano-sized particles and their potential to cross the blood-brain barrier and accumulate in the body's organs.
'At ZEBRA, we've never been afraid to challenge the norm if it means doing what's right,' said Thatcher. 'Our values are rooted in clarity, purpose, and honoring the body the way our Creator intended. We're here to create formulas that support wellness, not compromise it. That commitment continues with this gloss. Consumers are paying more attention than ever to what's in their products, and this launch reflects our promise to meet that demand with transparency, integrity, and intention, not trends.'
Jenn Thatcher
As wellness-minded consumers increasingly seek transparency from personal care brands, ZEBRA's expansion into beauty reflects growing demand for clean, multi-category alternatives. The brand has cultivated a loyal following of mothers and health-conscious consumers – many inspired by Thatcher's 'MAHA Mom' (Make America Healthy Again) initiative – who prioritize products grounded in integrity, safety, and purpose.

Pacific Mind Health Releases 5-Minute Mental Health Check-In Toolkit
This simple, evidence-informed practice helps users reduce stress, build self-awareness, and take meaningful steps toward better mental health — all you need is 5 minutes LONG BEACH, Calif., July 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Got five minutes for your mental health? That's all it takes to start building awareness and making real changes in how you think, feel, and care for your well-being. Pacific Mind Health, a leading provider of outpatient psychiatry and therapy services in California, recently released the 5-Minute Check-In, a downloadable toolkit designed to help individuals develop greater self-awareness. To access the toolkit, visit 5-Minute Check-In. "Taking the time to sit quietly can have a tremendous impact on one's mental wellness," says Pacific Mind Health's supervising clinical psychotherapist Veronica Calkins, LCSW. "Even just a few minutes of intentional awareness can interrupt autopilot thinking, reduce emotional overwhelm, and help you reconnect with what you truly need in the moment." Awareness is a key part of nearly every therapeutic approach, from cognitive behavioral therapy to mindfulness-based practices. A quick self-check-in mimics this effect, allowing you to slow down and reflect on what you're thinking, feeling, and doing. In today's fast-paced world, phone notifications, social media, and packed schedules can drown out your inner voice. Over time, unnoticed habits and emotions can build up and lead to burnout, anxiety, or other mental and physical health challenges. That's where a five-minute awareness check-in can help. How to Practice a Five-Minute Awareness Check-In Pause (30 seconds): Take a deep breath. Close your eyes if possible, and give yourself a moment to relax and be still. Scan your body (1 minute): Notice any physical sensations — tension, fatigue, tightness. Don't try to fix anything. Just observe how your body feels. Observe your thoughts (1 minute): Are your thoughts racing? Are you calm, anxious, or distracted? Notice them without judgment. Name your feelings (1 minute): Try to label your emotions. For example, "I feel nervous," or "I feel content." Naming emotions helps calm the brain and brings clarity. Reflect on your needs (1.5 minutes): Ask yourself what you need to feel more balanced. Maybe it's rest, movement, a glass of water, or a quick chat with a friend. Then, end your check-in by taking one small action to support your needs. Why It Works Regular five-minute check-ins help you stay connected to what's happening mentally, emotionally, and physically. Naming your feelings allows you to pause, think clearly, and reduce emotional overwhelm. When practiced consistently, awareness helps prevent stress from building up and makes it easier to recognize your needs and respond with self-care. "You don't need a perfect routine or hours of free time to care for your mental health," Calkins says. "Small, consistent moments of awareness like a five-minute check-in can build resilience over time and help you stay grounded, even on the busiest days."

Accomplished biopharma executive brings nearly 25 years of experience in business development, capital formation, and enterprise strategy to this role NORFOLK, Va., July 28, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--ReAlta Life Sciences, Inc. ("ReAlta" or the "Company"), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company dedicated to saving lives by rebalancing the inflammatory response to address rare and acute inflammatory diseases, today announced the appointment of Ellen Lubman, MBA as Chief Business Officer. In this role, Ms. Lubman will oversee business development, capital formation and corporate strategy. "Ellen is a highly respected executive with a strong track record of building partnerships, raising capital, and developing successful corporate strategies for biotech and pharmaceutical companies," said David Marek, Chief Executive Officer of ReAlta.

Her deep strategic and transactional expertise strengthens our team, and she will play a key leadership role as we forge partnerships with pharmaceutical companies and investors alike to advance our transformative therapies for patients across numerous severe inflammatory diseases with high unmet need." "I am thrilled to join ReAlta and build on the company's accomplishments in developing the EPICC platform and its lead asset pegtarazimod, which has the potential for clarity this year on a path to approval in hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE), a devastating disease where no pharmacologic treatment exists," said Ms. Lubman. "It is a privilege to contribute to the advancement of this differentiated approach to support the delivery of innovative therapies treating neuroinflammation in newborns with HIE, acute graft-versus-host disease (aGvHD), and acute Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)." Ms. Lubman brings seasoned leadership and broad experience across small to large-cap private and public biopharmaceutical companies, with a strong track record in strategic, transactional, and operational roles to ReAlta. She joins ReAlta from Werewolf Therapeutics where she was Chief Business Officer, ushering the company through multiple financings, including an Initial Public Offering, as well as business development transactions.

About ReAlta Life Sciences ReAlta Life Sciences, Inc. is a clinical mid-stage biopharmaceutical company dedicated to addressing life threatening rare and acute inflammatory diseases by rebalancing the inflammatory response. The Company's EPICC peptide platform leverages discoveries from the human astrovirus (HAstV-1), which uniquely inhibits components of the innate immune system. ReAlta's therapeutic peptides employ the dual-targeting mechanisms of HAstV-1 to modulate both complement and innate inflammatory pathways by inhibiting complement cascade activation and two key neutrophil-driven mechanisms: myeloperoxidase (MPO) and neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs). The Company's lead candidate, RLS-0071 (pegtarazimod), has received FDA Orphan Drug Designation and Fast Track Designations for hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE), a devastating disease that causes brain damage and high mortality in oxygen-deprived newborns; Orphan Drug Designation by the European Medicines Agency for HIE; FDA Orphan Drug and Fast Track Designations for acute graft-versus-host disease (aGvHD) associated with bone marrow and stem cell transplants; and FDA IND clearance for acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
