Try to stay healthy over the spring months with the following tips:
Rely on green plants! The green colour of spring replaces the wintery grey in grey and gives you a positive outlook. So get seedlings and plants from the gardener, green your home and enjoy the happiness of growth.
Tank up on fresh air! Fresh air is wonderful on spring days. So what's wrong with exercise outside in nature? Three times a week, 30 minutes of jogging or walking are ideal. What's stopping you?
Take your vitamins! After the winter months the body often lacks vital substances, especially vitamins B, C and E. Your diet should now include plenty of salads, carrots, broccoli, spinach, radishes, peppers, avocados and mangoes.
Take precautions! Spring is a time of new beginnings, also in health care. That's why a check of your health is now recommended, including an examination of the intestines and measurement of blood pressure and blood sugar (including a stress test).
Cast off the old burdens! During the winter months a lot of rubbish has accumulated, both in your body and in your home. You detoxify your body with light vegetables, fruit and abstaining from food in the evening, and you clean out your apartment by throwing it away generously and giving it away as a present.
After three German editions of the " Bildgebende Diagnostik der Hand" (1996, 2005, 2015) and an English edition (2007), we have created a new book format, which is expected to be published by Thieme company in July 2024. Rainer created the "two-man work" with assistance from Jan-Peter Grunz, MD (University of Würzburg). It covers a total of 112 chapters, which describe the most common pathological entities on the hand in a compelling format. Over 1200 high-quality images illustrate the partly complex disease patterns. Chapters on anatomy and diagnostic techniques have been omitted, but precise references are given in the text. Our publication written in German will be available as a classic book and in electronic form (Thieme's "eref").
In last centuries, progress of civilization is largely sensational. For example, the invention of the motor, the computer and the advances in medicine. No one would want to miss these.
However, every medallion has two sides: In addition to its undoubted blessings, civilization has its drawbacks. The lack of exercise, occupational and private stressors and health-damaging fast food are just as much a part of this as the psychological effects of the increasing individualisation of the individual.
In this article, we will use lecture slides to shed light on the problem of civilizing health factors against the background of our genetic foundations. Enjoy reading.
