In about 24 hours the long awaited health week entitled Spirit , Body and Soul will commence.

Below are some statistics from the world bank for 2015.

Infant Mortality Rate ( a crude definition is the number of children less than 1 year old who died in 2015). It is usually calculated per 1000 live births.

Nigeria.... 73
Luxembourg... 2
Norway... 2
USA....6
UK... 4
UAE.... 7
Finland.... 2
Canada... 5
Chad.... 81
cameroun.....58

Maternal Mortality Rates (a crude definition would be number of women dying from causes related to pregnancy and childbirth). It is usually calculated per 100,000 live births

Nigeria.... 814
Luxembourg .....10
Norway .....5
USA.....14
UK......9
UAE......6
Finland.....3
Canada.....7
Chad....856

Under 5 mortality rates ( a crude definition would be number of deaths in children less than 5 years old). It is usually calculated per 1000 live births.
Nigeria 104
Luxembourg...2.....
Norway...3..
USA...7...
UK..4.....
Finland...2...
Canada..5...
Chad..127...
Cameroun..80

It is obvious from these statistics that anyone living in Nigeria should take issues regarding health very, very seriously.

A major focus of modern medical practice is to ensure that the individual and or relative/ care-giver seeking healthcare is amply furnished with sufficient information regarding his/ her health condition in order to participate knowledgeably in the decision-making process and the entire treatment pathway. Furthermore health education has been associated with better health outcomes and quality of life. During the health week ( ie Spirit, Body and Soul) we have outlined some core topics with a view to providing relevant health education .

Saturday 1st September 2018

1...Depression ....in the past few months news/ information of su***des, attempted su***des, ge***al mutilation by spouses etc... have dotted the landscape of our dailies either in printed or electronic versions. The truth is that many in our society are battling with depression, however the stigma associated with mental illness in our society places a harsh lid of silence on these patients....their conditions are not often known or addressed until something drastic ( e.g. su***de) has occurred.

2....Reproductive Health. .as verbose as this word may sound it's inclusion in tomorrow's topics is a huge attempt on our part to educate participants on important aspects of reproductive health. We will have a gynaecologist to deal sufficiently with this topic...Areas to be touched will include ( but are not limited to) cervical and breast cancer prevention, family planning, sexually transmitted diseases etc.

3...Zumba.
I have added some links here on the health benefits of zumba..The zumba exercise / dance session is scheduled for Saturday 1st September 2018 by 8am.

4...Free medical consultation. ..we will have experienced doctors available to listen to your health complaints. The consultation and relevant drugs prescribed and dispensed are entirely free.

Sunday the 2nd of September

1.Hypertension. ...a silent killer...affecting young, old and elderly adults,

2.Diabetes.....often undiagnosed ...and even when diagnosed the typical social penchant for herbal and alternative remedies often complicates the treatment pathway

3.Diet/ Health Eating ....a Dietician with a wealth of experience in this field will provide evidence based , peer-reviewed and scientifically proven dietary advice to participants. Again attendance is encouraged as the sphere of diet and healthy eating has been bedevilled by a variety of quacks who make unrealistic promises with "wonder/ super nutritional supplements" which they often peddle to innocent individuals.

Don't come alone/solo. Invite your friends and loved ones. We look forward to a fabulous health week..Shalom

Zumba is a fun aerobic workout that mixes in dance moves. Find out what to expect from Zumba classes.
