...includes vegetables, beans, grains, and generous helpings of olive oil. This diet is shown to contribute to a lower risk of heart disease among those who follow it, which may result in large part from the presence of antioxidants in raw olive oil, known as polyphenols, which also lower the rate of cancer. The Ikarians have a tradition of napping each afternoon, which lowers the heart rate, alleviates stress, and provides a sense of youthfulness. Naps offer the Ikarians more energy on longer days, thus contributing to healthy physical activity. In Sardinia, family bonds are considered very important to the local community. I believe in the power that caring for one another can have on each family member’s outlook, and therefore, overall health. By offering support to my parents with household chores and by joining my entire family in recreational activities, I hope that I am strengthening familial bonds as well as relieving unnecessary stress. Okinawans sustain close-knit social circles called moai. This practice results in mutual benefit for those in the group. The welfare of each member is promptly looked after, giving the Okinawans emotional security, and, when needed, financial support. I try to maintain similar bonds with my close friends. By remaining close, we come to rely on each other, reducing our mutual stress. This also strengthens the relationship we have, so that we are better prepared to face future troubles. Residents of Nicoya spend time in the sun daily, which...

...best. However, about a year ago, my weight dropped to 72 pounds. I lay in a hospital bed with unkempt hair, fragile limbs and a sunken face. I was seriously ill. The villainous disease was not cancer or AIDS. I had anorexia, a condition which afflicts many teens and young adults, especially young women.” - Me Still to this day I am not sure how I had gotten to that point. The point where I was so focused on being skinny, on being part of the in-crowd. I can blame it on many things like, how I was new to the private school life, or that I was in my first “serious” relationship that in itself was super unhealthy for me in the sense that he lowered my confidence. What it all boils down to though was, I had simply hit my low-point in my life. Somehow though it got so bad that I just couldn’t deal with it anymore, mentally or physically, my body just gave up on me; and I ended up in the hospital. Anorexia is a type of eating disorder who has an intense fear of gaining weight. They severely limit the amount of food they eat and can become dangerously thin. Anorexia affects both the mind and body and can even become deadly. Anorexia usually starts in the teen years and can go into adult hood. Untreated anorexia can lead to starvation and serious health problems, such as osteoporosis, kidney damage, and heart problems. Some people die from these problems. The cause of anorexia is not fully understood. It is thought to be from a mix of physical, emotional, and social triggers. Extreme...

...insect repellents for domestic use. This is a very important investment for families as insects and various arthropod pests spread dangerous diseases, killing or sickening millions of people each year. In fact, the health of a family may sometimes depend even on the choice of insect repellent being used at home. Insects and other disease spreading pests can threaten the health and lives of families and individuals in a community, many lethal diseases such as Lyme disease, bubonic plague, dengue fever and malaria, for example, are spread by biting or stinging pests. The pests include all insects, example, the mosquito is responsible for spreading malaria, as well as ticks which spread Lyme disease. The citizens of first world countries typically tend to become infected through the bite or sting of insects and bugs while they are abroad. Indeed, travelers to exotic locales are often affected by nasty diseases transmitted by insects or bugs and bring such disease home with them. The greatest dangers lurk closer home and one need not travel across the world to face tiny pests. Many local insects and bugs in North America can cause serious diseases. Therefore, protecting the entire family through the prudent use of good quality insect and bug repellents is a necessity. Insects and bugs as vectors Each year, millions of people die from diseases transmitted by insects and other pests acting as vectors - an organism that acts as a host or carrier of some minute pathogenic organism that...

..."ahuacatl". Avocados are the fruit from Persea americana, a tall evergreen tree that can grow up to 65 feet in height. Avocados vary in weight from 8 ounces to 3 pounds depending upon the variety. There are dozens of varieties of avocadoes. The rich and creamy Hass variety is the most popular type of avocado in the United States, and 95% of all avocados grown in the United States are produced in California, original home of the Hass variety. They are generally available throughout the year, they are the most abundant and at their best during the spring and summer in California and in October in Florida. While avocados are technically fruits, we have categorized them here as vegetables since this is how they are usually considered from a culinary perspective. Avocados can make a great base for a high-energy smoothie that will satisfy you and keep you going for hours. The scientific name for coconut is Cocos nucifera. Early Spanish explorers called it coco, which means "monkey face" because the three indentations (eyes) on the hairy nut resembles the head and face of a monkey. Nucifera means "nut-bearing." The coconut provides a nutritious source of meat, juice, milk, and oil that has fed and nourished populations around the world...

...Family Assessment Bryan Smith Tulane University Abstract The Gordon’s 11 Functional Health Patterns provides an efficient and well organized mechanism in order to collect data from an individual and all of their life processes (Edelman & Mantle, 2006, pg. 131). With the Gordon’s Functional Health Patterns, it provides the foundation of the nurse’s assessment. “The assessment is a systematic technique for learning as much as possible about the individual”, and the main purpose in collecting all of the information is to discover if there are any health complications and to help identify the person’s healthy goals (Edelman & Mantle, 2006, pg. 147). With the nursing process, the nurse is able to evaluate, make a proper nursing diagnosis, predicts outcomes, prescribes interventions, and is able to assess the effectiveness (Edelman & Mantle, 2006, pg. 147). With subjective and objective data, the nurse is able to organize what is wrong with the individual. The nurse then uses the data he or she has gathered and formulates a diagnosis. With this, the nurse can then continue making a plan of care for the person and help encourage them to a healthier and better goal. For this particular assessment, I chose to interview the “M Family”. I decided to interview them in their own home in order to gather the most accurate information as possible. With this data provided, the Gordon’s 11 Functional health assessment, and the NANDA text book, I was able to devise an accurate...

...Food Made Visible It might sound odd to say this about something people deal with at least three times a day, but food in America has been more or less invisible, politically speaking, until very recently. At least until the early 1970s, when a bout of food price inflation and the appearance of books critical of industrial agriculture (by Wendell Berry, Francis Moore Lappé, and Barry Commoner, among others) threatened to propel the subject to the top of the national agenda, Americans have not had to think very hard about where their food comes from, or what it is doing to the planet, their bodies, and their society. Most people count this a blessing. Americans spend a smaller percentage of their income on food than any people in history—slightly less than 10 percent—and a smaller amount of their time preparing it: a mere thirty-one minutes a day on average, including clean-up. The supermarkets brim with produce summoned from every corner of the globe, a steady stream of novel food products (17,000 new ones each year) crowds the middle aisles, and in the freezer case you can find “home meal replacements” in every conceivable ethnic stripe, demanding nothing more of the eater than opening the package and waiting for the microwave to chirp. Considered in the long sweep of human history, in which getting food dominated not just daily life but economic and political life as well, having to worry about food as little as we do, or did, seems almost a kind of dream.

...ork2012 - 2013 Catalog A Message from the President “Sullivan University is truly a unique and student success focused institution.” I have shared that statement with numerous groups and it simply summarizes my basic philosophy of what Sullivan is all about. When I say that Sullivan is “student success focused,” I feel as President that I owe a definition of this statement to all who are considering Sullivan University. First, Sullivan is unique among institutions of higher education with its innovative, career-first curriculum. You can earn a career diploma or certificate in a year or less and then accept employment while still being able to complete your associate, bachelor’s, master’s or doctoral degree by attending during the day, evenings, weekends, or online. Business and industry do not expand or hire new employees only in May or June each year. Yet most institutions of higher education operate on a nine-month school year with almost everyone graduating in May. We remained focused on your success and education, and continue to offer our students the opportunity to begin classes or to graduate four times a year with our flexible, year-round full-time schedule of classes. If you really want to attend a school where your needs (your real needs) come first, consider Sullivan University. I believe we can help you exceed your expectations. Since words cannot fully describe the atmosphere at Sullivan University, please accept my personal invitation to visit and experience...
