Wellness Centers / Medically Based vs. Fitness-Based
[ send me this essay ]
40 pages in length. The writer discusses the fact that within the world of physical and mental wellness, there are two very different approaches to the same goal: medical and fitness. The two vastly diverse programs offered at wellness centers around the world provide similar benefits; however, it is the road taken to achieve these benefits that greatly differ. Medically-based wellness centers are geared more toward the traditional, pharmaceutical therapy that has sustained throughout the centuries. Fitness-based wellness centers, on the other hand, utilize one's inherent physical abilities, coupled with nutrition, relaxation and exercise, to aid in the body's recuperation. Granted, both entities have their specific place within the interworkings of overall wellness, yet their diversity maintains them as separate practices. Current trends, however, are showing a voluntary merging of the two applications to work toward a comprehensive approach to health care. Bibliography lists 24 sources.

West Nile Virus: Animals And Humans
[ send me this essay ]
15 pages in length. The recent incidence of West Nile virus that has slowly spread across the country has health officials alarmed as to the extent to which this growing outbreak might become a national epidemic. That it has long been fairly restricted to the East Coast until the last several months indicates that the mosquito responsible for spreading the virus is somehow being transported from state to state. Most recently, a California resident contracted the disease without traveling away from home or coming in contact with any of the typical indicators of the potentially fatal illness. However, the virus is not limited to attacking the human species; rather, it is well represented in myriad animal species, as well, which makes controlling the pathogen that much more difficult for the medical community. What is West Nile virus and why is it experiencing an upsurge throughout America? Bibliography lists 14 sources.

Western Medicine And Alternative Medicine: Integration

It is not without significant forethought that the two very separate entities have joined together to create a synergistic approach to health care. The writer discusses that prevention is the key for the alternative approach, where historically and typically, the western medicine practitioner has focused more upon treating the illness or disease after it has already been diagnosed. Bibliography lists 6 sources.

WHO and Pharmaceutical Industry Cooperation Serving Developing Nations
[ send me this essay ]
A 15 page paper discussing the partnership activities of the World Health Organization and the world's leading pharmaceutical manufacturers. Detractors of the pharmaceutical industry deride it for concentrating on developing drugs for the diseases of prosperity while neglecting to develop drugs for tropical diseases, but these detractors fail to understand that development of a single drug can cost as much as $500 million and that businesses must have some promise of return. A new WHO-directed program, Medicines for Malaria Venture, is a collaboration seeking to raise the funds necessary for development. In the meantime, nearly all pharmaceutical companies regularly make substantial donations of medicines and supplies. Most are on the order of Merck's commitment to donate 1 million measles vaccination doses to Honduras over three years. Bibliography lists 12 sources.
