Blood Pressure Lowering Effect Of Hypertension Treatment Device Further Validated In New Studies

European Society of
Hypertension -- Booth # 21, Hall 15.1 -- InterCure Ltd., a medical device
company publicly traded on the Tel-Aviv Stock Exchange (TASE: INCR),
announced the findings of new studies and analysis highlighting RESPeRATE
-- the only medical device cleared by the FDA and CE-approved for the
treatment of hypertension. Five posters will be presented at the European
Society of Hypertension meeting (ESH) in Berlin beginning June 14, 2008.
Two of the five posters focus on RESPeRATE's effect on blood pressure as
measured by 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring. Three of the
posters also present new findings in the emerging field of obtaining
vascular risk parameters from blood pressure measurements. The fifth poster
demonstrates the benefits of RESPeRATE in patients with chronic heart
failure.



"InterCure is making great strides within the European marketplace and
has received a tremendous response from both the scientific and consumer
communities," says Erez Gavish, president and CEO of InterCure. "The
continued clinical interest is producing a constant drumbeat of validation
for RESPeRATE, paving the path for the successful charge into retail
outlets in Europe and the U.S. and building on the more than 100,000
hypertension sufferers who have already adopted RESPeRATE as a treatment
for their hypertension."



Results of the findings related to RESPeRATE are being presented as
posters at ESH and are as follows:


-- PS26/WED/05 -- A study performed in Turkey, led by Prof. Erdine,
Department of Cardiology, Istanbul University, demonstrated that the
RESPeRATE device provides daytime and nighttime blood pressure
reductions as measured by 24-hour ambulatory monitoring. The study
also demonstrated that patients were compliant with the device and that
no adverse side effects were reported.


-- PS33/THU/01 -- Pooled results from two separate studies led by Profs.
Rosenthal and the Erdine study (above), utilizing 24-hour ambulatory
blood pressure monitoring demonstrated that RESPeRATE benefits
uncontrolled-hypertension sufferers. The analysis demonstrated a
clinically significant blood pressure reduction throughout both daytime
and nighttime. RESPeRATE was also found to independently reduce high
values of a risk-associated arterial property (S-D slope/AASI) derived
from the relationship between systolic and diastolic pressures.


-- PS34/MON/08 -- Data analysis led by Dr. Benjamin Gavish, chief
scientific officer, InterCure, Ltd., of a study performed in Italy,
conducted by Prof. Gianfranco Parati, explored, for the first time, the
linear relationships between systolic and diastolic blood pressure from
beat-to-beat measurements. The derived risk-related parameters (S-D
slope and AASI) are acutely influenced by breathing patterns and neck
suction.


-- PS34/MON/18 -- An Israeli study, conducted by Dr. Iddo Ben-Dov and
Prof. Michael Burzstyn from Hadassah Medical Center, and Dr. Benjamin
Gavish, concluded that the ratio of systolic to diastolic blood
pressure variability is shown to be a blood pressure-independent
predictor of mortality, associated with the linear relationship between
systolic and diastolic pressures.


-- PS18/WED/58 -- An Italian, randomized controlled study, led by Prof. G.
Parati from the University of Milan-Bicocca concluded that device-
guided paced breathing at home is feasible and improves prognostically
relevant clinical and instrumental parameters in heart failure
patients. It is recommended as an additional long-term treatment
program for these patients.



About InterCure Ltd. and RESPeRATE



InterCure Ltd. (Tel-Aviv Stock Exchange: INCR) is disrupting the $42
billion hypertension industry with the world's first FDA-cleared, OTC blood
pressure treatment device, RESPeRATE(R) (resperate). In a
market where seven out of 10 hypertensives are NOT controlled despite the
availability of more than 100 blood pressure medications, RESPeRATE
provides an effective non-drug therapy with no side effects.



RESPeRATE has gained widespread support of hypertension specialists and
has secured regulatory clearance in most key international markets. Ten
separate clinical studies have proven the device's efficacy and safety, and
RESPeRATE is now featured in more than 20 popular and professional text
books.



With more than 100,000 units sold, thousands of supportive clinicians
worldwide and one of the world's most popular hypertension websites,
InterCure is now introducing RESPeRATE into retail pharmacies to increase
access to hypertension sufferers.



InterCure has an exciting product pipeline based on its
broadly-patented "Device-Guided Breathing" technology platform. This
technology enables a systematic reduction in sympathetic outflow of the
autonomic nervous system, one of the key underlying causes of
cardiovascular disease, insomnia and several other medical conditions.
