Ανησυχίες της νέας μητέρας
by Dr Gilbert Adimora Ειρήνη ΒλασακάκηΣ’αυτό το βιβλίο παρουσιάζονται τα γεγονότα έτσι ώστε οι νέοι γονείς να μπορέσουν να αποκτήσουν γνώσεις χρήσιμες για την μεταχείρηση των νεογέννητων μωρών τους, να μειωθεί το άγχος και να πάρουν τα κατάλληλα μέτρα που θα βοηθήσουν τα μωρά να έχουν ένα υγιές ξεκίνημα στην ζωή τους. Είναι αποτέλεσμα πρακτικής πολλών ετών στην υγεία των παιδιών τόσο σε δημόσια όσο και σε ιδιωτικά νοσοκομεία. Πιστεύω πως αυτές οι πληροφορίες θα βοηθήσουν επίσης τη μείωση εμφάνισης νοσηρών καταστάσεων (νοσηρότητα) και θανάτων (θνησιμότητα) σε αυτές τις ηλικίες όταν περισσότεροι γονείς γνωρίζουν τι να κάνουν και χρησιμοποιούν αυτή τη γνώση κατάλληλα. Επίσης οι μητέρες θα είναι λιγότερο αγχωμένες μια και πολλές εμφανίζουν υψηλή αρτηριακή πίεση μετά τη γέννα.

β-Casomorphins: A1 Milk, Milk Peptides and Human Health
by Mohammad Raies Ul HaqThis book compiles the latest research on the A1 and A2 forms of cow milk, and attempts to show a correlation between the type of cow milk consumption and reported incidence of certain diseases (type 1 diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular diseases, sudden infant death syndrome and neurological disorders). Cow milk generally contains two types of β-casein, A1 or A2. The book describes the A1/A2 hypothesis, its foundation and the genetics behind it. It discusses the two forms of milk and why one is considered more harmful than the other. Seeking to provide a balanced view of the milk types, the book’s initial chapters highlight the structure, function and physiological activity of β-casomorphins. Subsequent sections describe the health concerns associated with A1 milk, and the various case studies and research surrounding it. In turn, the arguments against the hypothesis put forward by EFSA, American Nutritionists and Truswell are also highlighted. The book does not make any recommendations for dairy consumers; rather, it is a collection of essential data both in favour and against the hypothesis. Further mechanistic studies involving well-designed animal and human trials at the cellular, molecular, biochemical and immunological levels will be needed in order to draw sound conclusions. Overall, the hypothesis is fascinating, and possibly significant. However, verified and authenticated research with reproducible results is needed to make final consumer recommendations. This timely book offers a valuable resource for researchers and students of dairy science, as well as industry experts.

10% Human: How Your Body's Microbes Hold the Key to Health and Happiness
by Alanna CollenAn evolutionary biologist and science writer explores the widely-ignored role our gut microbes play in our health and well-being.You are just 10% human. For every one of the cells that make up the vessel that you call your body, there are nine impostor cells hitching a ride. You are not just flesh and blood, muscle and bone, brain and skin, but also bacteria and fungi. Over your lifetime, you will carry the equivalent weight of five African elephants in microbes. You are not an individual but a colony.Until recently, we had thought our microbes hardly mattered, but science is revealing a different story, one in which microbes run our bodies; remaining a healthy human is impossible without them.In this riveting, shocking, and beautifully written book, biologist Alanna Collen draws on the latest scientific research to show how our personal colony of microbes influences our weight, immune system, mental health, and even our choice of partner. She argues that so many of our modern diseases—obesity, autism, mental illness, digestive disorders, allergies, autoimmune afflictions, and even cancer—have their root in our failure to cherish our most fundamental and enduring relationship: that with our individual colony of microbes.The good news is that unlike our human cells, we can change our microbes for the better. Life—and your body—will never seem the same again.

10 Nursing Interventions for Family Caregivers: Guide to Best Practices in Adult-Gerontology Patient Care
by Mitzi M. SaundersThis book shines a light on the family caregiver, who cares for their loved one when nurses are not involved. It guides nurses to identify and partner with family caregivers and infuses confidence and desire to support them. The unique feature of this book is to provide nurses with the ability to see themselves in the role of supporting the family caregiver in their own practices with older people. Written in story form with teachable moments interjected within, it develops on the struggles and needs of the family caregiver. This book draws the nurse closer to the family caregiver using empathy, compassion, and competency; it elaborates on best practices to support key interventions that every professional nurse can do. Narrowing to 10 key nursing interventions helps establish the scope of family caregiver nursing care. Much of family caregiver care stems from compassion and “being with” and supporting the patient through difficult times. This is both an art and a skill. This much needed book guides nurses towards the family caregiver, the silent patient.
