Download or read book Forests and Human Health written by Carol J. Pierce Colfer and published by CIFOR. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study has two central concerns: the state of human health in forests, and the causal links between forests and human health. Within this framework, we consider four issues related to tropical forests and human health. First, we discuss forest foods, emphasizing the forest as a food-producing habitat, human dependence on forest foods, the nutritional contributions of such foods, and nutrition-related problems that affect forest peoples. Our second topic is disease and other health problems. In addition to the major problems—HIV/AIDS, malaria, Ebola and mercury poisoning—we address some 20 other tropical diseases and health problems related to forests. The third topic is medicinal products. We review the biophysical properties of medicinal species and consider related indigenous knowledge, human uses of medicinal forest products, the serious threats to forest sustainability, and the roles of traditional healers, with a discussion of the benefits of forest medicines and conflicts over their distribution. Our fourth and final topic is the cultural interpretations of human health found among forest peoples, including holistic world views that impinge on health and indigenous knowledge. The Occasional Paper concludes with some observations about the current state of our knowledge, its utility and shortcomings, and our suggestions for future research.

Book excerpt: On October 25,1999, the President directed the Secretary of Health and Human Services to study prescription drug costs and trends for Medicare beneficiaries. He asked that the study investigate: price differences for the most commonly used drugs for people with and without coverage; drug spending by people of various ages, as a percentage of income and of total health spending; and trends in drug expenditures by people of different ages, as a percentage of income and of total health spending. This report is the Department's response to that request.

Download or read book The Evolving World written by David P. Mindell and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2007-10-31 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 150 years since Darwin, evolutionary biology has proven as essential as it is controversial, a critical concept for answering questions about everything from the genetic code and the structure of cells to the reproduction, development, and migration of animal and plant life. But today, as David P. Mindell makes undeniably clear in The Evolving World, evolutionary biology is much more than an explanatory concept. It is indispensable to the world we live in. This book provides the first truly accessible and balanced account of how evolution has become a tool with applications that are thoroughly integrated, and deeply useful, in our everyday lives and our societies, often in ways that we do not realize. When we domesticate wild species for agriculture or companionship; when we manage our exposure to pathogens and prevent or control epidemics; when we foster the diversity of species and safeguard the functioning of ecosystems: in each of these cases, Mindell shows us, evolutionary biology applies. It is at work when we recognize that humans represent a single evolutionary family with variant cultures but shared biological capabilities and motivations. And last but not least, we see here how evolutionary biology comes into play when we use knowledge of evolution to pursue justice within the legal system and to promote further scientific discovery through education and academic research. More than revealing evolution's everyday uses and value, The Evolving World demonstrates the excitement inherent in its applications--and convinces us as never before that evolutionary biology has become absolutely necessary for human existence.

Book excerpt: A surgeon’s protocol that challenges conventional orthopedic practices to help you heal pain naturally while avoiding surgery—or recover faster from a necessary procedure. Far too many individuals have accepted a lower quality of life while contending with painful musculoskeletal conditions including arthritis, rheumatism, tendinitis, and autoimmune diseases. And traditional methods of treatment are often risky and costly with questionable success rates. Bone on Bone is a total lifestyle guide for optimal health and pain-free living. Dr. Meredith Warner—an orthopedic surgeon who performed combat surgery in Iraq and Afghanistan, operates an orthopedic practice, and teaches surgical residents—shows how the same underlying principles that extend life, reduce heart disease, prevent diabetes, and decrease incidences of dementia should be applied to the overall care for orthopedic problems. Bone on Bone will empower readers with the tools and knowledge to naturally treat pain whenever possible by: Promoting natural healing with simple and strategic lifestyle modifications, including time-restricted eating, sleep schedule optimization, and simple exercises Providing guidance on how to foster a strong mind–body connection to improve self-control and better manage pain Explaining how targeted changes to your mindset, eating habits, exercise routine, nutrition, and sleep can relieve common orthopedic pain Breaking down how to successfully navigate medical options—and understanding why some surgeries are unnecessary Helping readers harness their own body’s power of self-repair Offering a step-by-step protocol for improving overall wellness and extending health span Taking steps to combat cognitive decline and boost mental health while also improving musculoskeletal health Regardless of your age or if you have been told you’re “bone on bone,” painful orthopedic problems are not something you’re stuck with. You can activate your body’s natural ability to heal itself—taking control of your health to feel better than you have in years—without surgery. This comprehensive book will help you thrive for years to come, by keeping the entire musculoskeletal system in great shape without breaking the bank.
Download or read book Arguments for Protected Areas written by Sue Stolton and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2010-08-12 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most protected areas (e.g.national parks and nature reserves) have been created to protect wildlife and land- and seascape values. They currently cover over 13% of the world's land surface, around 12% of marine coastal areas and 4% of the marine shelf. Retaining and expanding these areas in the future will depend on showing their wider benefits for society. This book provides a concise and persuasive overview of the values of protected areas. Contributing authors from over fifty countries examine a wide range of values that are maintained in protected areas, including food, water and materials; health; tourism; cultural and spiritual values; and buffering capacity against climate change and natural disasters. The book also considers the role of protected areas in poverty reduction strategies, their relationship with traditional and indigenous people and in fostering conflict resolution through peace parks initiatives. The chapters draw on a series of authoritative reports published by WWF over recent years under the 'Arguments for Protection' banner, in association with various partners, and on additional research carried out especially for the volume. It analyses the opportunities and limitations of protected areas for supplying the various values along with practical advice for planners and managers about maximising benefits. It provides an important contribution to the debate about the role of protected areas in conservation and other aspects of natural resource management and human livelihoods. Published with WWF

Download or read book The Psychological Autopsy written by Antoon Leenaars and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-02-10 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The best way to grasp the essence of death scene investigation (DSI) is to witness its application, called the psychological autopsy, by an expert forensic scientist/clinician. This remarkable book affords the opportunity to delve into the challenges that the forensic mental health specialist and public safety professional confront in DSI. Suicides, and often death, are complex, multidetermined events. People, whether police investigators or mental health professionals, are generally perplexed, and even confused, when they are confronted by the equivocal case. Was it a suicide? Homicide? Accident? These are critical questions. Dr. Leenaars shows that DSI is, however, not mysterious; the reader can learn the generally accepted, evidence-based protocols of the psychological autopsy. Illuminated by individual (idiographic) case studies and general (nomothetic) research, this definitive guide allows the investigator to uncover the bare bones of a suicide or death.
