As the world continues to develop, you should realize that almost everyone is using personal care, skin care, cleansing, and baby care and beauty products. Have you ever stopped to think what harm such products can cause to your body? Cosmetic ingredients do not remain on the surface of your skin. They are usually designed so that they can penetrate in your skin, and they do. After scientific studies, some cosmetic ingredients have been found in human tissues such as parabens in breast tumor tissue, phthalates in urine, and some persistent fragrance in human fat. The big problem is that people do repeatedly use these products every day; sometimes even more than once a day. Many people are not aware of harm they can do to their bodies. We usually absorb up to 60 percent of what we put on our skin with children absorbing 40-50 percent more than adults. This means our children are at higher risk of developing diseases or abnormalities later in life. Some of the health issues linked ...

Healthcare policy has long been a moving target, but it’s hard to remember a time when more change was cycling through the industry. Now, more than half a decade since the passing of the Affordable Care Act (ACA), the focus has shifted from expanding access to health insurance to reforming the delivery of healthcare. In particular, policymakers have embarked on a series of experiments and initiatives to transition from the traditional fee-for-service (FFS) system to a payment-for-value delivery system, with key attention to cost containment and quality improvement. We are in the first generation of pursuing approaches better than FFS, and expect the industry’s shift toward value-based care (VBC) to accelerate and continue to impact providers, patients, vendors, and payers in different ways. Here are the most important healthcare predictions for the future. 1.       Technology will be increasingly important It’s not really news to say that healthca...

This industry track is open for any business who would like to learn about the forces shaping the evolution of healthcare, and to understand what opportunities exist for their business in this exciting market. Healthcare systems today have to address a host of different challenges posed by medical and scientific advancement. Developments in the field of genetics, information technologies, and nanotechnology are enforcing a more individualized approach to healthcare – often outside the hospital setting, while we have already seen the rise of user-centric healthcare and increasing patient empowerment. Concepts such as ‘the average patient’ are now viewed as outdated. And standards within modern medical systems are measured by different parameters, including: patient access to the best-available treatments and to non-institutionalized care; compliance with treatments; and, even – patient choice. Many agree that there is uncertainly ahead, but one thing is for sure: Technology will c...

While some of the flight attendants were men, most were women, so this is not just a case of discrimination by men, but discrimination by women against other women, particularly women “of color”. In Australia at least, the majority of medical students are now female, yet discrimination still abounds, and ironically, women are a big part of this. We say that we would prefer to have a female doctor for ourselves, yet when it comes to power and authority, some women are happy to hand the power over to men. Most powerful positions – heads of department, board members and official positions in our colleges – are held by men. Medicine is still a men’s club, and women are allowing this. Dr. Tamika Cross, a black woman and OBGYN from Houston, was on a returning flight home and Delta Airlines initially refused her to see another passenger who needed medical attention because a flight attendant didn’t think she fit what a doctor looked like.Cross details the flight attendant’s in...
