A Population-Based Policy and Systems Change Approach to Prevent and Control Hypertension

Author: Institute of Medicine

ISBN: 030914809X
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 236

Book Description
Hypertension is one of the leading causes of death in the United States, affecting nearly one in three Americans. It is prevalent in adults and endemic in the older adult population. Hypertension is a major contributor to cardiovascular morbidity and disability. Although there is a simple test to diagnose hypertension and relatively inexpensive drugs to treat it, the disease is often undiagnosed and uncontrolled. A Population-Based Policy and Systems Change Approach to the Prevention and Control Hypertension identifies a small set of high-priority areas in which public health officials can focus their efforts to accelerate progress in hypertension reduction and control. It offers several recommendations that embody a population-based approach grounded in the principles of measurement, system change, and accountability. The recommendations are designed to shift current hypertension reduction strategies from an individual-based approach to a population-based approach. They are also designed to improve the quality of care provided to individuals with hypertension and to strengthen the Center for Disease Control and Prevention's leadership in seeking a reduction in the sodium intake in the American diet to meet dietary guidelines. The book is an important resource for federal public health officials and organizations, especially the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, as well as medical professionals and community health workers.

The Baker IDI Healthy Cholesterol Diet and Lifestyle Plan

Pages : 0

Book Description
Almost one-third of adult Australians have high blood cholesterol, which puts them at increased risk of heart disease and stroke. This is because too much LDL (or 'bad') cholesterol in the blood can cause atherosclerosis, which gradually clogs blood vessels until the blood isn't able to get where it needs to go. Yet few Australians really understand what cholesterol is, let alone how to achieve and maintain healthy levels. Fortunately, this can be as simple as making the small changes to your diet and lifestyle that are outlined in this book, sometimes in conjunction with medication as recommended by your doctor. Here, the internationally renowned Baker IDI Heart and Diabetes Institute tells you everything you need to know about cholesterol - including what causes it, complications, medication and strategies for reducing it. This is accompanied by more than 80 simple, flavourful recipes to set you on the right track for reducing your LDL blood cholesterol levels. The Baker IDI Healthy Cholesterol Diet and Lifestyle Plan will help you manage your cholesterol and improve your health.

Pages : 224

Book Description
Shawn Baker’s Carnivore Diet is a revolutionary, paradigm-breaking nutritional strategy that takes contemporary dietary theory and dumps it on its head. It breaks just about all the “rules” and delivers outstanding results. At its heart is a focus on simplicity rather than complexity, subtraction rather than addition, making this an incredibly effective diet that is also easy to follow. Carnivore Diet reviews some of the supporting evolutionary, historical, and nutritional science that gives us clues as to why so many people are having great success with this meat-focused way of eating. It highlights dramatic real-world transformations experienced by people of all types. Common disease conditions that are often thought to be lifelong and progressive are often reversed on this diet, and in this book, Baker discusses some of the theory behind that phenomenon as well. It outlines a comprehensive strategy for incorporating the Carnivore Diet as a tool or a lifelong eating style, and Baker offers a thorough discussion of the most common misconceptions about this diet and the problems people have when transitioning to it.

Exercise and Diabetes

Author: Sheri R. Colberg
Publisher: American Diabetes Association
ISBN: 158040507X
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 554

Book Description
Physical movement has a positive effect on physical fitness, morbidity, and mortality in individuals with diabetes. Although exercise has long been considered a cornerstone of diabetes management, many health care providers fail to prescribe it. In addition, many fitness professionals may be unaware of the complexities of including physical activity in the management of diabetes. Giving patients or clients a full exercise prescription that take other chronic conditions commonly accompanying diabetes into account may be too time-consuming for or beyond the expertise of many health care and fitness professionals. The purpose of this book is to cover the recommended types and quantities of physical activities that can and should be undertaken by all individuals with any type of diabetes, along with precautions related to medication use and diabetes-related health complications. Medications used to control diabetes should augment lifestyle improvements like increased daily physical activity rather than replace them. Up until now, professional books with exercise information and prescriptions were not timely or interactive enough to easily provide busy professionals with access to the latest recommendations for each unique patient. However, simply instructing patients to “exercise more” is frequently not motivating or informative enough to get them regularly or safely active. This book is changing all that with its up-to-date and easy-to-prescribe exercise and physical activity recommendations and relevant case studies. Read and learn to quickly prescribe effective and appropriate exercise to everyone.
