chronic illness :: Article Creator 2025's Looking Like The Year Of Chronic Disease. Here Are 3 Issues To Watch This time last year, we were eager to see how blockbuster obesity drugs would actually perform, and if they had staying power. We've gotten some answers. However, our crystal ball failed to predict the arrival of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. And his "Make America Healthy Again" entourage,   which materialized seemingly overnight in the summer.  We knew the drugs were changing society, but we didn't know that Kennedy would hand a megaphone to critics of the drugs and the pharma industry, or that he'd become a conduit for a vast array of health concerns. Average people are talking about disease prevention, looking to modify their diets and lifestyle habits to ward off the leading causes of death and disability. (Primary care physicians rejoice!) That, along with the widespread health care dissatisfaction that became glari...

ebola emerging disease :: Article Creator Ebola: How A Vaccine Turned A Terrifying Virus Into A Preventable Disease The Ebola virus devastated west Africa in 2014, claiming over 11,000 lives in Sierra Leone, Liberia and Guinea. It was the largest Ebola outbreak since the virus had first been discovered in the Democratic Republic of Congo in 1976. Ebola is a terrifying virus which, if left untreated, causes bleeding inside the body and through the eyes, nose, mouth and rectum. Case fatality rates have varied from 25% to 90% in past outbreaks, depending on circumstances and the response. The 2014 outbreak in west Africa exposed a critical gap in global preparedness for infectious diseases: the absence of effective vaccines. There were no drugs or vaccines approved to treat or prevent Ebola or ready to enter into clinical trials at the outset of the epidemic. Therefore, many felt it was ethically necessary to conduct such research as quickl...

hypercalcemia symptoms :: Article Creator What Are The Symptoms Of Too Much Vitamin D? Signs of vitamin D toxicity include: Elevated blood levels In order for vitamin D to reach toxic or dangerous levels in the body, it needs to exceed 100 nanograms (ng) per milliliter (mL). Recommendations on optimal vitamin D levels vary, but research suggests that levels between 30–60 ng/mL are likely optimal and may help protect against illness and disease. Even when taking high dose vitamin D supplements, it's unlikely that a healthy person's blood vitamin D levels would come close to reaching excessive or toxic levels. Most cases of vitamin D toxicity are caused by inappropriate supplement dosing and prescription errors. For example, in a 2020 case report, a 73-year-old man developed vitamin D toxicity after taking 10,000 IU of vitamin D per day for many years. In another 2020 case report, a 56-year-old wo...
