Our preferred lifestyles bring on all sorts of health conditions There isn鈥檛 a day goes by that the media doesn鈥檛 report on a new health issue taking hold of society. Why are we suffering as a nation? Is it purely down to our preferred lifestyles? Pressures of work Cheap Derrick Rose Jersey , school or both? The intense stress that we put our bodies under? Or is it an inevitable symptom of what life is like in this new world of ours?
Bulimia in men
One of the latest headlines underlying the issue, is that bulimia in men is growing. More typically associated perhaps with females, it would appear that bulimia is no longer gender specific. Is this because bulimia is actually a problem, or is it yet another issue being blown out of proportion?
While there are many very personal reasons why an eating disorder might set in, it is another indicator that our lifestyles, the pressures that we face Cheap Kevin Love Jersey , and the sheer pace of daily life, can have an impact on our health from an early age.
How can preventive healthcare respond?
But if we had been talking about bulimia a few years ago, and made men (those perceived to be at greatest risk) aware of how to spot the signs of it, how to deal with the condition and about the importance of discussing what was happening with someone else, perhaps the headline would never have occurred.
Had the NHS and its healthcare partners been in a more informed position of promoting better, preventive healthcare Cheap Brad Daugherty Jersey , to people in specific 鈥榓t risk鈥?groups a decade ago, perhaps we wouldn鈥檛 be talking about bulimia at all.
Big issues for society
The real issue here, of course, is not bulimia 鈥?it could be any illness. It鈥檚 how does the NHS positively tackle society鈥檚 health issues as part of its wider preventive, healthcare marketing strategy.
The philosophy of intervening into peoples鈥?lives at an early stage, in order to prevent future illness Cheap Shaquille O'Neal Jersey , is an interesting one. Can health intervention in a teenager, for example, promote behaviour change that leads to immediate lifestyle benefits and a greater sense of wellbeing?
The NHS believes it can and is now working with healthcare advertising agencies, London, to deliver thought-provoking healthcare awareness that drives positive change in people. Behaviour change marketing Social marketing as it鈥檚 better known, is a highly focused way of delivering key healthcare messages to people in 鈥榓t risk鈥?groups. It鈥檚 also used to reinforce good behaviours.
The NHS has been using targeted social marketing campaigns across the country Cheap Terrell Brandon Jersey , through NHS Trusts and other bodies, to raise awareness, connect with people, promote healthcare opportunities, like screening for specific age groups, for years.
While it鈥檚 early days Cheap Isaiah Thomas Jersey , the signs are that people are believing in, and connecting with social marketing in ways that they never have before. Understanding peoples鈥?health
One of the key elements of a successful social marketing campaign is understanding peoples鈥?lifestyles. Any marketing agency will tell you that a campaign will fail if its central focus does not relate to their customers鈥?mindsets or needs. So why is social marketing different then?
Social marketing promotes the benefits of leading a positive lifestyle, enjoying good health 鈥?and that has a positive impact on society as a whole.
It鈥檚 not driven by profit, it鈥檚 driven by behaviour change 鈥?and that鈥檚 what sets is apart from other more traditional marketing campaigns.
What will tomorrow鈥檚 headline be?
So as the headlines continue to be dominated by who has what and why in terms of health issues, preventive medicine, fuelled by successful social marketing campaigns Cheap Mo Williams Jersey , have their part to play in connecting with people 鈥?identifying with their everyday concerns, their lifestyles and their health habits 鈥?and then delivering inspiring messages that promote a change in behaviour.
Will social marketing change tomorrow鈥檚 headline? Who knows, but preventive healthcare is here to stay.
Total Views: 84Word Count: 645See All articles From Author Peripheral Neuropathy, or PN, is one of the most common types of chronic pain experienced by individuals. This illness has continued to become more and more prevalent as our environments have changed. Odds are that you know of at least one person who suffers from a PN related condition, whether it is a family member Cheap Deron Williams Jersey , friend, co-worker, or even yourself. If you suffer from Peripheral Neuropathy, then rest assured that there is a solution to the pain.
Peripheral Neuropathy is a progressive type of illness. Unlike injuries such as broken bones or infections, the strength of PN takes time to develop. Tingling in the legs, burning sensations in the feet Cheap Andrew Bogut Jersey , etc., usually come one slowly. It may take months or even years before the illness becomes a burden on your day to day lifestyle. Because Peripheral Neuropathy is a nervous system based condition, traditional medicine and surgery will only work to mask and delay the problem. Only holistic based therapies can truly solve the problem at its root cause.
Traditional medicine cannot completely treat Peripheral Neuropathy. The risky surgeries and toxic pain medication that are common among most medical treatments for PN only work to cover up the symptoms of pain. The actual root problem that is causing the pain is not located andor eliminated. In the case of surgery, there might be a need for surgery again in the future. With pain medications, it will be a constant case of changing medications once the body becomes used to them or increasing their dosage. Neither of these solutions are healthy.
