International Youth Day: Youth and Country's future: Proactive and Preventive Care!


In one of my talk on Integrative and Lifestyle Healthcare, I came across two young boys coming forward requesting for some development in Bihar on the same subject. As my interaction continued, I was surprised to know on the steps and actions they had initiated in Bihar in various areas of development in the areas of health, education, youth empowerment, etc. Was inspired to see their hope and their power to shape the future in the state. 

This is not the first time, I have come across young people being hungry for better options. They are rejecting the status quo and demanding a better future. An engineer after 10 years in eminent multinationals, took a break to perceive MS yoga, and currently researching on power of our ancient Vedic hymns and its vibratory effect on the body. He is one of the team members  among the Clinical team of Integrated system at WELLBEEING. 

High numbers of young people taking risks and trying to reach a better life, and willing to take drastic actions to do so is quite inspiring. And if these youth are allowed to realize their full potential, developing countries like ours could see huge economic gains.

The evolution of youth and their mind set in the last few decades have changed drastically. Today's youth are not ready for any compromise. In 40s (Our grandfathers) youth followed mostly their ancestors. They were mostly followers....followed their family affairs or business. In 60s (Our fathers) youth focused on bread earning. They wanted to make a living for their family, and settle down. This is when migration to urban areas began - the beginning of nuclear families. Felt contented with what was achieved by their retirement and settled. In 70-80s, people worked for their lifestyle. Tendency was to make money, property, etc. Started toiling more than the previous generation - the beginning of lifestyle problems. The focus of youth of 20th century is clearly 'quality of living'. To do what they wish and follow unconventional approach. Normal is boring. The wants are more than the need.

This clearly demands for a change in the offerings expected, be it in health care, home care, education, personal care, etc. The need for redefining every care is inevitable today. 

At WELLBEEING, the need for redefining the way medicine is offered, is the motto through 'Integrative Medicine', which we believe is the future of healthcare, a new generation Healthcare delivery.

A CASUAL WRITE ON A SERIOUS NOTE: EATING WHOLE - ALL FRUITS & NUTS

On my routine consultation, people always argue and say "I want to control my diabetes and the doctor asked me to stop excess fruits instead, have digestive biscuits" . Some wise people even say "as a doctor you don't know that nuts increase cholesterol levels and dangerous to the heart?" My own cousin started arguing on this and said " you are wrong. Go read properly ". Well, the pharma industry perhaps is getting paid off for that today in abundance. These were easily acceptable few years ago, as none of us had time to verify these facts on whether fruits and nuts are helpful or harmful. Today, thanks to online encyclopedia. Let me know answers to these 2 questions: Have you ever googled  cholesterol content in cashew nuts /peanuts (or any nut you could name)?  Now many of your say Banana has a high glycemic index? or how can a diabetic or Obese eat fruits like Banana, Watermelon, Mango, Chikku, Pineapple, Jackfruit? My question is speaking about the...

An Integrated approach for hypothyroidism: Is this approach a solution to avoid long-term medication?

  A case at WELLBEEING© Integrated Health Centre was promising to study further the synergistic effect of working together at the body-mind levels of an individual, rather than depending only on long-term thyroxine drug. This person had been diagnosed with primary hypothyroidism by independent medical and lab assessment, of which conservative management had failed to normalize the TSH, which showed a continued upward trend; this individual could not lose weight by conventional methods. The patient underwent the lifestyle modification with hypothyroid management program  at WELLBEEING. His weight was regularly checked, stress was relieved, and the TSH was done at the end of 6 weeks, both of which showed significant improvement. This report demonstrates that integrated management as an approach has shown to be effective in a case of autoimmune thyroiditis, and hopefully will reduce the dependency on the medications as well. However, this has encouraged the team to research fur...
