Behind the White Coat: Heartbeats of Hope Amidst Nigeria's Medical Trials Step into the operating room where every decision is a battle against the odds. "Stethoscopes and Sacrifices: The Economic Front of Nigerian Medicine" peels back the curtain to reveal a tumultuous world where heroes in scrubs fight not just against diseases, but against a system strained to its limits. In this riveting narrative, readers are invited on a journey to the heart of Nigeria's healthcare crisis--a journey that transcends statistics and dives into the souls of those who heal. From the gritty realities of inadequate resources and poor infrastructure, to the personal stories of doctors who persist despite daunting financial challenges, this book stitches together a compelling tableau of the human spirit. Discover the untold impacts of the mass exodus of medical talent and the harrowing tales behind the patient-to-doctor ratios that threaten the fabric of Nigerian healthcare. Witness the stark contrasts of urban and rural disparities in access to medical care, and feel the weight of corruption and bureaucratic diseases that plague the system. And yet, within these pages lies the resilience of those dedicated to the fight, innovators bridging the technology gap, and stories of survival on sacrifice that ignite a flicker of hope amidst despair. Understand the challenges posed by the pharmaceutical dilemma, with stories of counterfeit medications shadowing patients' roads to recovery. Explore the role of NGOs and international partnerships striving to mend a fractured system, and consider the visions of a healthier future through reforms and innovation, as laid out in thought-provoking case studies and policy recommendations. "Stethoscopes and Sacrifices" is more than a book--it is a call to comprehension and compassion, an instrument for change in the hands of those who dare to believe in a healthier Nigeria. Open its pages and join an unforgettable odyssey into the beating heart of a nation's struggle for well-being.
It's not what you eat, it's why and how you eat. The world is drowning in information on health, nutrition and exercise yet 95 percent of people who try to lose weight put it all back on, plus more, within 12 months of starting any sort of weight loss regime. Why? Because the key factor in successful weight management has been ignored: the brain. The brain is our control centre. Every part of the body follows the signals and instructions sent out by the brain. It doesn't matter if you have a slow metabolism, a frenetic lifestyle or a genetic predisposition to fat gain, because NeuroSlimming addresses the underlying source of the issue and gives you a Mind Plan, not a meal plan. NeuroSlimming brings the latest discoveries in brain science to the field of weight management. NeuroSlimming provides the missing piece in the weight loss puzzle. NeuroSlimming sets you free of dieting, struggling, worrying, wishing, craving and emotional eating. Free of guilt and anguish about what, when and how much to eat. Free to make peace with your body and live life to the full. Free to enjoy food because you'll learn how to feed your spirit, not starve your body. Dr Helena Popovic's deep understanding of what drives self-sabotaging behaviours will show you how to overcome them. She also explains why you could be doing 'everything right' yet still not achieving the results you want. NeuroSlimming opens avenues for change that were not previously known to exist. NeuroSlimming is revolutionary. It will take you beyond information to lifelong transformation. In 2016 NeuroSlimming won the Bronze Medal in the international Living Now awards. These awards celebrate the innovation and creativity of books that enhance the quality of our lives. The 2016 winners are recognised as the year's best books for better living. NeuroSlimming is honoured for its contribution to positive global change in the health and wellness category.
