Abstract

Omega-3s, trans-fats, polyunsaturated fatty acids, linoleic acidùresearch facts about fatty acids and their relationship to heart disease and atherosclerosis, obesity, cancer, and neurological disorders abound. Chemical names appear on every nutrition label. But, just what do these terms mean in health and disease? The Fats of Life delineates the importance of essential fatty acids, with a focus on distinctions between omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acid variants. The chemical and biochemical characteristics of these fatty acids and their metabolism to a vast array of potent bioactive messengers are described in the context of their potential effects on general health and impact on various diseases and neurological disorders. Glen D. Lawrence addresses in detail the capacity for polyunsaturated fatty acids to influence asthma, atherosclerosis, heart disease, inflammation, cancer, and immunity. Lawrence makes clear that our understanding of the biochemical and physiological effects of dietary fats has advanced tremendously as a result of careful research, but he also stresses that this knowledge has not easily translated into sound dietary recommendations.

Abstract

Het boek Positieve gezondheid geeft aan hoe er in de gehele levensloop kansen zijn om gezondheid te bevorderen, hoe ongelijkheid op het gebied van gezondheid voorkomen kan worden en wat dat betekent voor het beleid op scholen, bedrijven en gemeentes.Uitgebreide beschrijvingOnze kijk op gezondheid bepaalt hoe we de gezondheidszorg inrichten. Gezondheid, in de ogen van Walburg, is een dynamisch vermogen dat nodig is voor bloei en ontwikkeling en om verstoringen zoals ziekte te voorkomen. Dat vermogen kunnen we inzetten om te oreren, maar we kunnen het ook uitputten. Het behoud van gezondheid vergt net zo'n duurzame instelling als het behoud van de aarde. Iedereen is verantwoordelijk voor de eigen gezondheid. En die is te belangrijk om over te laten aan de gezondheidszorg die volledig is ingericht op herstel bij ziekte.Het boek Positieve gezondheid geeft aan hoe er in de gehele levensloop kansen zijn om gezondheid te bevorderen, hoe ongelijkheid op het gebied van gezondheid voorkomen kan worden en wat dat betekent voor het beleid op scholen, bedrijven en gemeentes. Positieve gezondheid is daarmee een boek voor iedereen die betrokken is bij de eigen gezondheid en bij de condities waaronder mensen gezond blijven en tot bloei komen.

Abstract

Leadership is not about titles, status, and wielding power. A leader is anyone who takes responsibility for recognizing the potential in people and ideas, and has the courage to develop that potential. When we dare to lead, we don't pretend to have the right answers. We stay curious and ask the right questions. We don't see power as finite and hoard it. We know that power becomes infinite when we share it with others. We don't avoid difficult conversations and situations. We lean into vulnerability when it's necessary to do good work. But daring leadership in a culture defined by scarcity, fear, and uncertainty requires skill-building around traits that are deeply and uniquely human. The irony is that we're choosing not to invest in developing the hearts and minds of leaders at the exact same time as we're scrambling to figure out what we have to offer that machines and artificial intelligence can't do better and faster. What can we do better? Empathy, connection, and courage, to start. Brené Brown has spent the past two decades studying the emotions and experiences that give meaning to our lives, and the past seven years working with transformative leaders and teams spanning the globe. She found that leaders in organizations ranging from small entrepreneurial startups and family-owned businesses to nonprofits, civic organizations, and Fortune 50 companies all ask the same question: How do you cultivate braver, more daring leaders, and how do you embed the value of courage in your culture?

The journal is broad and multi-disciplinary in focus, publishing papers on methodology as well as those that are empirical and conceptual in nature. It offers a forum for debates on policy and practice, adopting a practitioner focus where appropriate. Culture, Health & Sexuality takes a genuinely international stance in its consideration of key issues and concerns, as reflected in the composition of the editorial board. Culture, Health & Sexuality provides an international forum for the analysis of culture and health, health beliefs and systems, social structures and divisions, and the implications for these for sexual health, and individual, collective and community wellbeing. The journal also explores the policy and practice implications of research in the fields of culture and reproductive and sexual health.
