Disability, Health and Human Development
This open access book introduces the human development model to define disability and map its links with health and wellbeing, based on Sen's capability approach. The author uses panel survey data with internationally comparable questions on disability for Ethiopia, Malawi, Tanzania and Uganda. It presents evidence on the prevalence of disability and its strong and consistent association with multidimensional poverty, mortality, economic insecurity and deprivations in education, morbidity and employment. It shows that disability needs to be considered from multiple angles including aging, gender, health and poverty. Ultimately, this study makes a call for inclusion and prevention interventions as solutions to the deprivations associated with impairments and health conditions.This work was published by Saint Philip Street Press pursuant to a Creative Commons license permitting commercial use.

Why does the health insurance company suspend health insurance?
Health insurance companies may suspend health insurance for a variety of reasons, including non-payment of premiums, fraudulent claims, or failure to provide required documentation. Non-payment of premiums is a common reason for suspension, as it indicates that the policyholder is not fulfilling their financial obligation to maintain coverage. Additionally, if a policyholder is found to have submitted fraudulent claims or has failed to provide necessary documentation, the insurance company may suspend their coverage until the issue is resolved.

Nutrition : Food, Health and Spiritual Development
Our instinctive knowledge of which foods are helpful and which are harmful appears increasingly to be fading.We are bombarded with advice, information and prescriptions as to what we should eat and drink, but the issues surrounding nutrition - questions of health, diet, taste, even ecology and sustainability - remain largely unresolved. Unlike most commentators on this subject, Rudolf Steiner tackles the theme of nutrition in a refreshingly open way.At no point does he try to tell us what we should or should not be putting into our bodies - whether with regard to an omnivorous or vegetarian diet, smoking, drinking alcohol, and so on.The job of the scientist, he says, is to explain how things act and what effect they have; what people do with that information is up to them.However, he emphasizes that our diet not only determines our physical wellbeing, but can also promote or hinder our inner spiritual development. In this carefully collated anthology, with an introduction, commentary and notes by Christian von Arnim, Rudolf Steiner considers nutrition in the light of his spiritual-scientific research. He explains the impact of raw food, vegetarian and meat diets, the effects of protein, fats, carbohydrates and salts, individual foodstuffs such as potatoes, beetroots and radishes, as well as the impact of alcohol and nicotine.His insights are vital to anybody with a serious interest in health, diet and spiritual development.

Behavioural Incentive Design for Health Policy : Steering for Health
Behavioural economics has become a popular way of tackling a broad range of issues in public policy.By presenting a more descriptive and possibly accurate representation of human behaviour than traditional economics, Behavioural Incentive Design for Health Policy tries to make sense of decisions that follow a wider conception of welfare, influenced by social norms and narratives, pro-social motivations and choice architectures which were generally neglected by standard economics.The authors show how this model can be applied to tackle a wide range of issues in public health, including smoking, the obesity crisis, exercise uptake, alcoholism, preventive screenings and attitudes towards vaccinations.It shows not only how behavioural economics allows us to better understand such challenges, but also how it can design effective incentives for addressing them.This book is an extensive reassessment of the interaction between behavioural incentives and health.

Prioritizing health through proper nutrition, exercise, and self-care can enhance one's natural beauty and overall well-being.

What is better, private health insurance or statutory health insurance?
The answer to whether private health insurance or statutory health insurance is better depends on individual preferences and needs. Private health insurance typically offers more comprehensive coverage, shorter waiting times for appointments and procedures, and access to a wider range of healthcare providers. However, it can be more expensive and may not be affordable for everyone. Statutory health insurance, on the other hand, is mandatory for all residents in many countries and provides basic healthcare coverage at a lower cost. It ensures that everyone has access to essential healthcare services, regardless of their income or health status. Ultimately, the choice between private health insurance and statutory health insurance will depend on factors such as individual healthcare needs, budget, and preferences for healthcare providers and services.
