I wasn't able to put pen to paper yesterday, to tell you what the many topics of this blog might be. One topic will be how this country may need a shift in it's health care paradigm from our current system of disease care to prevention of illness. From disease care to wellness. Why don't we put a more emphasis on preventing diseases?
We'll talk about various health care topics, what they are, what they mean and what you can do about them. Examples might be high blood pressure, stroke, cardiovascular disease, aneurysms or lung illnesses. Do you notice that these are all illnesses?
Why don't' we see more emphasis to prevent these illnesses? We'll talk about a proposal in Congress, the National Nurse Act of 2011 which calls for a National Nurse for Public Health.
We'll also talk about how health is so much more than the absence of illness and the connection between the mind and body. I'll also suggest well-known books about how there is a connection between what the mind perceives and symptoms that the body may exhibit.
