More Health, Less Care: How to Take Charge of Your Medical Care and Write Your Own Personal Prescription for Lifelong Health



Tackling the problems plaguing the U.S. health-care system, this accessible guide explores the pitfalls of contemporary medicine and medical treatments, concentrating on diseases linked to poor lifestyle choices, such as obesity and diabetes. While much of the health-care industry is centered on a blanket approach that addresses a general disease instead of the person affected by it, this guide suggests that personalization is the key to good health. It asserts that patients who make physical, emotional, and spiritual lifestyle changes to improve their diets, exercise regimens, and stress levels can help alleviate problems caused by lifestyle illnesses.

Can We Use The Information


Can we use the information from the human genome project effectively to cure disease and alleviate human suffe?
by Tim M

Can we use the information from the human genome project effectively to cure disease and alleviate human suffering?



Answer(s):

Answer by Jonathan L
yes but it is in it's infancy

Answer by fendergrl97
Parts! But our genome os much too complex for this to happen quickly.

1. Many conditions are polygenic, meaning they are controlled by several genes.
2. 1. Many conditions are multifactorial, meaning they are controlled by several genes AND environmental factors.
3. Many gene products interact with other genes and gene products so even if there was a way to solve one problem, you still have another.
4. Epigenetics are the changes on the DNA not involving the sequence of bases, but on how genes are expressed. We don't fully understand it.
5. There is no effective gene therapy at this time. You can't target only certain genes to turn on/off without causing changes elsewhere in the genome.

An Imperfect Lens

An Imperfect Lens



Acclaimed author Anne Roiphe evokes the sights and sounds of 1880s Alexandria, Egypt, a bustling center of trade and travel. From teeming docks to overflowing market stalls, from grand homes to grimy narrow alleyways, cholera microbes rise and bob in streams of water and tiny droplets, clinging to moisture as man clings to air.With a keen mind and dedication to his work, young Louis Thuillier has impressed his mentor—famed scientist Louis Pasteur—enough to be sent to Alexandria as one-third of the French mission searching for the source of the cholera that is terrorizing the city. Along with the other members of the French mission—scientists Emile Roux and Edmond Nocard and their enterprising servant Marcus—Louis longs to find the cure, bringing glory to himself and to France. Este Malina is the lovely daughter of a respected Jewish doctor, whose family has lived in Alexandria for hundreds of years. A life of comfort has made Este a romantic, and she hopes to marry a man with the heart of a poet. Neither expects to find a soul mate in the other, but when Este begins to assist at the French mission’s lab, a deep bond forms. Este, though, is engaged to another, and Louis is not Jewish—her family would never allow them to marry.In spite of their many differences, the lovers’ desire grows and their fantasies threaten to distract them from their work. In Alexandria, the disease rages on, as mysterious as it was a thousand years before. Political intrigue threatens to separate Este and Louis permanently. Their love, as fragile as the glass slides they use in the lab, is in danger before it has had a chance to thrive.With An Imperfect Lens, rich with the sights and scents of a different era, Anne Roiphe once again demonstrates the storytelling power for which she has long been hailed.From the Hardcover edition.

Living With Hepatitis B

Living with Hepatitis B



A new book from the authors of the bestselling Living with Hepatitis C. Chronic hepatitis B, a condition that currently affects 1.25 to 1.5 million Americans, is a serious progressive disease that can lead to cirrhosis, liver cancer, the need for liver transplantation and death. According to the Centers for Disease Control, more than 200,000 Americans of all ages are infected each year with the hepatitis B virus (HBV). Sufferers of acute hepatitis B can become jaundiced, severely fatigued and too ill to work. Although most recover, some will experience acute liver failure, need emergent liver transplantation or die. Experts estimate that up to 10 percent of infected adults and 25 percent of infected children under the age of five will develop chronic hepatitis B. Now the team that wrote the bestselling Living with Hepatitis C brings to hepatitis B sufferers the same authoritative information, expert answers, practical guidance, hope and inspiration. Living with Hepatitis B explains in everyday language• the nature of the disease and its effects on your body how to recognize early warning symptoms • what you should do if you get infected • the HBV vaccine: is it safe, is it effective? • how to avoid infecting others, how to understand blood tests, nutrition tips, treatment options, research trends and more. The first, most comprehensive and authoritative guide to HBV for the general public, Living with Hepatitis B is sure to become a classic. Author Biography: Gregory T. Everson, M.D., one of the country's leading hepatologists, is a recognized expert on the treatment and cure of hepatitis. He is director of hepatology at the University of Colorado School of Medicine. Hedy Weinberg is an award-winning writer and essayist. Diagnosed with hepatitis in 1993, she brings to the reader personal understanding of how patients feel and what they want and need to know.
