Current messages confuse doctors and affected males currently haunt by the German press reports according to which the prevention of prostate cancer would not pay. The messages confuse affected men as well as doctors. It is worth to question what lies behind the most strikingly designed heading. To do this, you will quickly discover, it isn’t in the extensive study from Scandinavia to prevention in the strict sense, but to the classic early detection of prostate cancer. If this has piqued your curiosity, check out Dr. John Mcdougall. This is something else entirely. To read more click here: Assurant Health. The concepts and measures for the early detection and prevention of prostate cancer should be separated so clean. The prostate gland is a very sensitive organ that can be affected by external influences and life style easily affected. So, enlargement of the prostate gland meet approximately every second man aged 50 and over.

Most of these enlargements are benign (benign). But not all of them. Each year nearly 50,000 men will develop in Germany new prostate cancer (malignant prostate enlargement). Prostate cancer is the most common cancer and the second leading cause of death among men. Alarmingly high numbers, when you consider that could be improved by right easy-to-implement measures vital early detection and retirement savings halved the risk of disease. Prostate check as a means of screening from the age of about 40 years ago, so the previous opinion, all men should undergo regularly a prostate check at the doctor or urologist.

Key tests, ultrasonic and laboratory markers (PSA value), it is possible to detect prostate cancer at an early stage and to treat. Because the sooner a cancer is treated, the chances are greater. Exactly these measures were analyzed in the Scandinavian long-term study over 20 years and found that the benefits not significantly exceeds the cost of the investigation. Therefore, the authors question the meaning of these measures. Men over 40 years of age should be But hold off by exaggerated messages about “prevention of prostate cancer brings nothing” not by the visit of kind of.

Stress management is also, but not only an individual task at the end of each year asks the opinion Research Institute Forsa for the intentions of the Germans for the coming year. “” Last December for the first time at the top: “Less stress or stress”. Meanwhile, half of the year is around. Contact information is here: Assurant Health. Time for a mid-term review. Sobering mid-term review must fail this unfortunately rather ambiguous. For all since the beginning of the year published figures and data relating to days of absence due to mental health problems, stress-related diseases, etc. know apparently only one direction: upwards.

Even if one or the other may be successful with his own personal stress management project: in the population as a whole we are quite obviously not and the part of the project of the reduction of stress in the workplace already cooking not. Anti stress regulation as a solution to the problem? For some time advertises is known apart from the SPD and trade unions”the Minister of labour for a so-called stress regulation. On their effectiveness, the You can be quite different opinions to get stress under control. If however one blame only the evil employer for the stress problem and the others just as dogmatically move stress and dealing in purely private responsibility, we can reach only one: the consolidation of the Status quo! We are all partly responsible of course experiencing stress in every person is different. As all other aspects of health, it is based on personal responsibility, to take measures that increase resistance to stress their own sure, on the one hand. But not only. In factories and hospitals, parties, trade unions, churches and even in families there are many work and behavior habits that practically are a breeding ground for stress and stress-related health problems.

So, a bad working atmosphere can be proven at least as harmful as passive smoking, for example. Combination of all forces if we want to make it so personally and society, unhealthy stress to remove or do not arise, then we couldn’t come to tackle the stress management as a shared responsibility. Just so we are can it do, the negative aspects of stress, particularly stress-related health problems, to curb effectively and sustainably. Markus Frey
