Download or read book Your Ideal Hawaii Health written by Tyler Mercier and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-01-22 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After moving to Hawaii, we had fantastic improvement in our health and fitness. Yet it was a mystery to us why so many people living in Hawaii are healthier, happier, and live longer. We wanted to know the secret of health and fitness in Hawaii so we would not change something in our life that would reverse our progress. It did not surprise us that Hawaii is ranked the most healthy and happy in the nation. Our neighbors and friends in Hawaii were incredibly fit and active into their 80's and 90's. We even met people with terminal conditions who moved to Hawaii for their last days of life and had sudden unexplained recoveries. Your Ideal Hawaii Health: Why people in Hawaii are so Healthy and Happy describes what we learned from our extensive research about how the ocean, sunshine, food, activities, and slow pace of life in Hawaii improve health. Much of what we discovered shocked us. Many of the health studies contradicted everything we have been told by medical authorities about what was healthy to eat and how to live. We wish we had known these things when were younger and lived on the mainland. It would have saved us from years of being obese and stressed out. The book cites the latest research and tells the story of our experiences of making dramatic changes in our diet and lifestyle to achieve our health goals. If you are struggling with your weight, depression, and health conditions you may be surprised to learn why just living in Hawaii can make your healthier and happier.
Download or read book Ma i Lepera written by Kerri A. Inglis and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2013-01-22 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ma‘i Lepera attempts to recover Hawaiian voices at a significant moment in Hawai‘i’s history. It takes an unprecedented look at the Hansen’s disease outbreak (1865–1900) almost exclusively from the perspective of “patients,” ninety percent of whom were Kanaka Maoli (Native Hawaiian). Using traditional and nontraditional sources, published and unpublished, it tells the story of a disease, a society’s reaction to it, and the consequences of the experience for Hawai‘i and its people. Over a span of thirty-four years more than five thousand people were sent to a leprosy settlement on the remote peninsula in north Moloka‘i traditionally known as Makanalua. Their story has seldom been told despite the hundreds of letters they wrote to families, friends, and the Board of Health, as well as to Hawaiian-language newspapers, detailing their concerns at the settlement as they struggled to retain their humanity in the face of ma‘i lepera. Many remained politically active and, at times, defiant, resisting authority and challenging policies. As much as they suffered, the Kānaka Maoli of Makanalua established new bonds and cared for one another in ways that have been largely overlooked in popular histories describing leprosy in Hawai‘i. Although Ma‘i Lepera is primarily a social history of disease and medicine, it offers compelling evidence of how leprosy and its treatment altered Hawaiian perceptions and identities. It changed how Kānaka Maoli viewed themselves: By the end of the nineteenth century, the “diseased” had become a cultural “other” to the healthy Hawaiian. Moreover, it reinforced colonial ideology and furthered the use of both biomedical practices and disease as tools of colonization. Ma‘i Lepera will be of significant interest to students and scholars of Hawai‘i and medical history and historical and medical anthropology. Given its accessible style, this book will also appeal to general readers who wish to know more about the Kānaka Maoli who contracted leprosy—their connectedness to each other, their families, their islands, and their nation—and how leprosy came to affect those connections and their lives.
