Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Decode the subtle signals of hormones with this foundational book from expert endocrinologist and leading researcher in the field. Hormones rule our lives. From conception, to birth, to our last breath, hormones control the delicate processes that keep our bodies in balance. However, when this careful stasis is disturbed, our hormones can wreak havoc on our health. Max Nieuwdorp, MD, PhD, knows exactly what signals your hormones are sending you and how they impact how you look, feel, and behave. In this foundational guide to hormonal health, he breaks down how hormones impact every system in the body, empowering you with the knowledge you need to get to the root of chronic health problems and set yourself up long lasting, sustainable wellness. Inspired by Dr. Nieuwdorp’s day-to-day interaction with his patients, The Power of Hormones describes hormonal health in a detailed and accessible style, helping you clue in to symptoms of hormonal imbalance such as persistent fatigue and weight gain. His unique approach advocates for considering the far-reaching roles played by hormones throughout the body and is a go-to guide for understanding how they influence our health, our lives, and who we are.

Download or read book Endocrinolog a pedi trica pr ctica en poblaciones con recursos limitados written by M. Zacharin and published by Karger Medical and Scientific Publishers. This book was released on 2019-10-31 with total page 569 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este libro fue concebido como un recurso accesible y útil para los pediatras e incluso para médicos generales y otros trabajadores de la salud, con el objetivo de proporcionar lineamientos claros de diagnóstico y estrategias de tratamiento. Muchos endocrinólogos experimentados en todo el mundo han contribuido a este libro, muchos de los cuales han viajado y han enseñado ampliamente en países en vías de desarrollo. El libro resultante no tiene la intención de ocupar el lugar de los textos estándar; su objetivo es proporcionar información breve y actualizada sobre las afecciones endocrinas, con énfasis en las posibilidades de diagnóstico y las pruebas analíticas y de imagen más útiles y de bajo costo, así como en el tratamiento más apropiado de acuerdo con la posibilidad que se tiene de utilizar recursos terapéuticos cuando, independientemente de que estén indicados, resulten accesibles. También se proporciona una guía sobre cómo acceder a tecnologías más sofisticadas cuando sea necesario. "La influencia de este libro de texto va mucho más allá del diagnóstico y el tratamiento de las enfermedades endocrinas pediátricas en los países en vías de desarrollo. Apoyará las iniciativas existentes que apuntan a la creación de la capacitación en Endocrinología Pediátrica en entornos donde estas condiciones no se reconocen en gran medida. Servirá como un recurso para la capacitación de enfermeras, dietistas, funcionarios de salud y otros profesionales de la salud que trabajan como aliados de los endocrinólogos pediátricos recién capacitados. Les proporcionará una herramienta para abogar por los niños y adolescentes con enfermedades endocrinas y los ayudará a sensibilizar a los legisladores y a las autoridades locales de salud pública sobre la importancia de proporcionar a los pacientes fármacos simples y relativamente asequibles que figuran en la Lista de medicamentos esenciales para niños de la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS) (tales como insulina, hidrocortisona, fludrocortisona, diazóxido y levotiroxina) pero que, a menudo, no están disponibles a nivel local."
