This book is about health. Why talk about disease? But if it wasn't a disease, who would generally think about health? That's why accounts for go the other way around: to show why disease is, to describe how, how from them are saved. No, not drugs, activity.
The concepts of disease and health are closely related to each other. It looks like it will, they are ahead: strong health - less disease, and vice versa. But all a lot more difficult. Measures of health and disease are difficult, bordering on them is nearly impossible. I won't go into detail, but i still have to look at some approaches to this. Like it would be a simple question: disease - health.
First, disease from a subjective and objective point of view is not one and then the same. Second, can interpret the disease in the concept of biochemistry, physiology, psychology, sociology. All interpretations are important.
Let's start with psychology, with the subjective. Illness is a decreased level of "pleasure" udc, associated with painful physical sensations or with fear before illness and death. Feeling a healthy strong body ("muscle joy", as i. Pavlov put it) is always a healthy person is rare. He adapted long ago and has absolutely no body notice. Health itself is remembered as happiness, only when its own is not.
But there is also an adaptation to unpleasant feelings, especially if a person is busy with an interesting business. And vice versa, in a suspicious subject may be a painful weighting sensation, which receives form the disease. That's why psychological, subjective disease criteria are unreliable. The intensity of the complaints does not match the severity of the disease, this is known to all doctors. Especially now, when disease is simply cultivated because of the abundance of doctors and their incorrect installation of counting all of the potentially ill people. Feel with the body sent in the bark of the brain tree.
If a cell's excitability is enhanced and they are trained permanently then attention and normal impulses, go with the body, how excessive it is felt.
How to see people, formerly in disease!
They use it like a gem, as an excuse for all their failures in life as an excuse to demand mercy and pleasure from others. The very evil kind. The doctor should not ignore the patient's complaints, but rather it is better for him to build hypotheses about the disease. But not better and forget that in the end doctors have to release the person from the psychology of illness. If it is not possible to get rid of them from the afflicted body the doctor should try to treat their honest effects.
The question of disease and health accounts for unraveling at different levels: biochemistry in cell physiology in the body and in general the body.
Here's an understated schematic:
Cell --- organ-- organism -- wednesday
Let's start with the cell, with the molecular level. On molecular biology in the hope of seeing all drugs.
Again at all recently, thirty years back, confinement was represented very primitively: nucleus, protoplasm, shell. Now not so; cell isthe most complex organization with a semi-rigid structural protein framework, with many "channels" in which the fluid flows, containing a variety of simple and complex molecules. By him both matter -energy and connection information. Shells - these are by no means passive semi-waterproof membranes, while complex structures with pores controlled "from the center" are selectively porous and even actively excite substances from the outside.
