Book excerpt: Este libro es un relato visual de cómo la FAO ha ayudado a varias generaciones a combatir lo que todavía sigue siendo la mayor de las injusticias: el hambre en un mundo de abundancia. Pone de relieve los esfuerzos continuos de la Organización para ayudar a sus Miembros a alcanzar la meta “Hambre Cero” en un mundo que, además de estar constantemente en cambio, se enfrenta a nuevos y urgentes desafíos, como la migración y el cambio climático. El prólogo del Director General de la FAO y la introd ucción acerca de hambre cero por el Director de Comunicación, contextualizan el trabajo de la Organización y ofrecen un ejemplo real de cómo el “hambre cero” puede mejorar las vidas de las personas. Además, se han incluido los perfiles de los cinco Embajadores Especiales Hambre Cero. Con formaciones y experiencias profesionales diferentes, estos Embajadores desempeñan un papel común: persuadir a sus regiones, y al mundo entero, de que podemos ser la Generación Hambre Cero para el año 2030. Las f otos y leyendas, junto con los textos adjuntos, también ilustran la labor y los momentos más significativos de la FAO a lo largo de toda su historia. De esta forma, el lector es capaz de percibir el detalle en su contexto global.

Book Creating a Lifestyle Medicine Center

Download or read book Creating a Lifestyle Medicine Center written by Jeffrey I. Mechanick and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-09-04 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Building on the groundbreaking work Lifestyle Medicine (2016), this unique new book bridges the gap between theory and practice by providing detailed information on the real-world development and creation of a Lifestyle Medicine Center, whether independently or as part of an established medical program or department. Part one sets the stage by establishing the rationale for creating a Lifestyle Medicine Center as well as the medical and economic burden it seeks to alleviate. The construction of the physical facility and all of the myriad details of the program and its key players are covered in part two, from the structural to the aesthetic, including informatics, developing patient resources and education tools, current technologies and applications, the role of the dietitian and exercise physiologist, inpatient consultation, the importance of community engagement, and more. Part three is comprised of case studies of existing, successful Lifestyle Medicine Centers across the country, with detailed descriptions of their history, development, programs and challenges. Chapters are supported with plentiful figures, tables and useful links. The burden of chronic disease in the U.S. and globally is growing, with pervasive direct and indirect multi-scale adverse effects on health and well-being, economics, and quality of life. Notwithstanding the remarkable progress in biomedical technology, the role of lifestyle medicine in managing chronic disease in a preventive care model is paramount; however, the relevant and effective education in lifestyle medicine is lacking. Translating the theory into action steps, instantiated by case studies with critical interpretations and problem-solving tools, Creating a Lifestyle Medicine Center is the go-to resource for family and primary care physicians, internal medicine physicians, and all clinical specialties interested in planning and developing a lifestyle medicine program.

This is the discipline that focuses on the impact of daily habits and actions on both short- and long-term health and quality of life. The first edition of this comprehensive work named the field of lifestyle medicine in the academic medical literature. The fourth edition continues to span and expand the field and offers extensive evidence-based literature in virtually every aspect of lifestyle medicine. This Textbook, edited by cardiologist Dr. James Rippe, who is a leading lifestyle medicine researcher, represents the combined wisdom and recommendations of over 325 experts in virtually every aspect of lifestyle medicine. Chapter authors have been chosen because of their background as leaders in various aspects of lifestyle medicine. Lifestyle Medicine, Fourth Edition contains extensive sections on the treatment and prevention of coronary heart disease,stroke, cancer, diabetes, obesity, substance abuse, dementia, and many other clinical conditions. Key lifestyle modalities such as physical activity, nutrition, weight management, sleep, stress reduction, and positive connections with other humans are supported by detailed discussion and state-of-the-art evidence. The expanded section on behavioral medicine provides an important framework for these discussions. Every chapter has been completely revised and many new topics added, such as lifestyle medicine for nursing, psychiatry, and preventive neurology. The fourth edition of this classic text continues to serve as the leading, comprehensive textbook in lifestyle medicine. The original has been called the “indispensable bible” of lifestyle medicine, and the fourth edition of this work continues to justify this designation. There is no longer any serious doubt that daily habits and actions have a significant impact on multiple aspects of health. The fourth edition of Lifestyle Medicine provides the scientific evidence to support this assertion and will serve as an invaluable reference and guide, not only to lifestyle medicine practitioners but to all primary care physicians, subspecialty physicians, nurses, and other healthcare practitioners.
