Описание:
In Rethinking Diabetes, Emily Mendenhall investigates how global and local factors transform how diabetes is perceived, experienced, and embodied from place to place. Mendenhall argues that the link between sugar and diabetes overshadows the ways in which underlying biological processes linking hunger, oppression, trauma, unbridled stress, and chronic mental distress produce diabetes. The life history narratives in the book show how deeply embedded these factors are in the ways diabetes is experienced and (re)produced among poor communities around the world.
Rethinking Diabetes focuses on the stories of women living with diabetes near or below the poverty line in urban settings in the United States, India, South Africa, and Kenya. Mendenhall shows how women's experiences of living with diabetes cannot be dissociated from their social responsibilities of caregiving, demanding family roles, expectations, and gendered experiences of violence that often displace their ability to care for themselves first. These case studies reveal the ways in which a global story of diabetes overlooks the unique social, political, and cultural factors that produce syndemic diabetes differently across contexts.
From the case studies, Rethinking Diabetes clearly provides some important parallels for scholars to consider: significant social and economic inequalities, health systems that are a mix of public and private (with substandard provisions for low-income patients), and rising diabetes incidence and prevalence. At the same time, Mendenhall asks us to unpack how social, cultural, and epidemiological factors shape people's experiences and why we need to take these differences seriously when we think about what drives diabetes and how it affects the lives of the poor.

Описание:
The prevalence of obesity in the United States and the rest of the industrialized world has skyrocketed in the past 20 years. Linked to heart disease, diabetes, hypertension, and metabolic syndrome, it is also the leading cause of osteoarthritis and the second leading cause of cancer. With contributions from leading experts in the field, Obesity: Prevention and Treatment bridges the gap between emerging understanding of the pathophysiology of obesity with concrete clinical applications for physicians and other healthcare workers in all disciplines of medicine.
Following an overview of issues related to the prevention and management of obesity, the book discusses:
Energy balance, the metabolic predictors of weight gain, and the role of adipokines, genetics, and the environment on obesity
The epidemiology of obesity
The identification and evaluation of the overweight patient as a guide to the selection of treatment
Nutritional aspects of obesity treatment and management
Exercise risks to which the obese patient may be more prone and steps that can be taken to mitigate these risks
Behavior modification strategies for the obese patient
The definition, assessment, consequences, and treatment of childhood obesity
Drugs and surgical options for treatment
The implications of public policy on the problem of obesity
The significance of intra-abdominal and ectopic fat deposition in endocrine aspects of obesity
Currently, over two thirds of the adult population in the United States is either overweight or obese. With these grim statistics, it is critically important that clinicians from all branches of medicine play an active role in diagnosing and treating obesity and its related conditions. This volume arms clinicians with the information they need to create an appropriate prevention and treatment program for their patients.

Описание:
Understanding the way in which nutrients are metabolised, and hence the principles of biochemistry, is essential for understanding the scientific basis of what we would call a healthy diet. Extensively revised and updated to reflect current knowledge of nutritional and dietary requirements, Introduction to Nutrition and Metabolism, Fifth Edition presents an accessible text on the basic principles of nutrition and metabolism and the biochemistry needed for comprehending the science of nutrition.
This full-color text explores the need for food and the uses to which that food is put in the body, as well as the interactions between health and diet. It describes the metabolic pathways and the biochemical basis of their nutritional and physiological importance. Topics covered include chemical reactions and catalysis by enzymes; the role of ATP; digestion and absorption of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins; issues associated with being overweight; problems of malnutrition; and vitamin and mineral requirements and functions. This new edition contains significantly expanded information on a variety of subjects including appetite control, hormone action, and integration and control of metabolism. The fifth edition also includes a list of key points at the end of each chapter. This text explains the conclusions of the experts who have deliberated on nutritional requirements, diet, and health, as well as the scientific basis for the conclusions they have reached. It also provides a foundation of scientific knowledge for the interpretation and evaluation of future advances in nutrition and health sciences. The accompanying CD-ROM contains new interactive tutorial exercises, PowerPoint presentations for each chapter, self-assessment quizzes, simulations of laboratory experiments, and a nutrient analysis program.

It is the only one recognized by UNESCO in 2010 as an Intangible Heritage of Humanity, and this thanks to the many health benefits it brings

But what if we told you that its true meaning is lifestyle or way of life?
It is the typical diet of the Mediterranean countries; it is very simple and healthy. It is ideal for dealing with weight problems, diabetes, high blood pressure, some types of cancer, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and even heart disease. Not to mention that it seems to extend the life and is also anti-aging.
Curious about eating the best diet in the world, while eating delicious food and you'll never go hungry?
In this cookbook you will need to:

The Mediterranean diet is a joyful way of eating that celebrates good food, while maintaining a strong focus on the taste and pleasure of the table.
It is a lifestyle more than a simple way of eating, much more than a diet but, rather, a set of knowledge, social habits, and cultural traditions that have been historically handed down by the populations bordering the Mediterranean since the immediate postwar period.
