Question

impact on the health of our population and our communities is critical for health care and human service professionals in the field. To prepare for and complete this discussion forum: Find a peer reviewed journal article that addresses health disparities or disparities in health outcomes of a particular health condition/concern (i.e., obesity, breast cancer, high blood pressure, infant mortality, etc.). A quick search of the library databases using, for example, the keywords Health Disparities in Breast Cancer, will produce a wealth of information from which to choose your article. Second, in a post of a minimum of 150 words, give a brief overview of the article and discuss what you think the most important take home point is. Try to pinpoint the underlying causes of the disparity and how it is impacting the health of minority or vulnerable populations. Do NOT simply read and paste the abstract. Read the entire article as I may ask you specific questions about it in the forum. Please check to make sure that you are not duplicating another student’s article in the forum.

Health as of now is a topic of global concern at present ,irrespective of the country /place of residence. Alongside is another issue that is simultaneously racing ahead ie, lifestyle diseases, that includes diabetes, blood pressure , obesity etc..These can be traced at an early stage & can be kept at/below the safe borderlines of internationally followed standard values , through strict daily regimen of a proper healthy  diet & exercise. The most factor an individual has to do is to follow these healthy practices as a daily regimen even before catching up a disease or health condition. Certain heriditary medical conditions are also to be monitored at an early stage & medical advice should be seeked at the earliest. Any health symptom that persists for more than a day should not be left alone easily , as in this time of our world, there are numerous budding diseases that are both aware & unaware / have lesser knowledge about it , to the medical fraternity. So its our duty as an individual to take care of our health as better as possible & also impart useful info to those who are less concerned too, so that they too can be aware of the unexpected deadly consequences of self negligence of health & healthy life style. Lets all unite to make each of us & our society filled with healthy individuals who live life to the fullest healthy & happy.
