Traditional medicine is an ancient medical practice that existed in human societies before the application of modern science to health. It has evolved to reflect different philosophical backgrounds and cultural origins. Although modern medicine is widely spread, traditional tribal medicine still exists in all the countries across the world. Interest in traditional medicine system has increased over the years. People in many countries are now prepared to look for alternative approaches to maintain their health.
The Right to Culturally Sensitive Health Services for Refugees and IDPs, Jana...LIDC
Janaka Jayawickrama, of the University of Northumbria, spoke about the right to culturally sensitive health services for refugees and internally displaced peoples. He stressed that the right to health pledged in international documents, as well as rights to basic sanitation, safe water, housing, food and nutrition, refer to concepts which are understood differently between cultures, and that universal provision may therefore not be as straightforward as it seems.

An Introduction To Community Medicine (Basic Definitions) | SurgicoMed.comMukhdoom BaharAli
Community Medicine is the new branch of medicine recently added with a concept to provide
health all of the community as it is the basic right of the community. Community Medicine may
be defined as;
“Community Medicine is a system of delivery of comprehensive health care to the people by a
health team in order to improve the health of community.” (WHO Definition)
The demographic profile of the countries suggests that countries are rapidly becoming heterogeneous, multicultural societies. So it is imperative that nurses develop an understanding about culture and its relevance to competent care. Transcultural nursing represents and reflects the need for respect and acknowledgement of the wholeness of all human beings.
It is essential to remember that regardless of race ethnicity or cultural heritage, every human being is culturally unique. Professional nursing care is culturally sensitive, culturally appropriate and culturally competent
Traditional medicine may be regarded as the branch of medicine whose philosophy is rooted in the enhancement of body’s own healing power through the use of natural means. It is the oldest form of health care system that has stood the test of time. In South Africa, traditional medicine encapsulates a myriad of health practices, approaches, knowledge, and beliefs. Most people in South Africa prefer using traditional medicine to Western medicine because they believe that traditional medicine is more efficient, accessible, and affordable. This paper focuses on the use of traditional medicine among indigenous rural and urban communities in South Africa. Matthew N. O. Sadiku | Uwakwe C. Chukwu | Abayomi Ajayi-Majebi | Sarhan M.

African traditional medicine is a holistic health practice that uses indigenous herbalism combined with some aspects of spirituality. It involves the direct application of herbal remedies, animal parts, or mineral materials for healing purposes.

Indigenous Traditional Healing Care: Belief & Practices among Tribals of Sout...iosrjce
Globally, about 85% of the traditional medicines were used for primary healthcare which are
derived from plants. There is a need to document the indigenous knowledge related to Indian herbs and plants
and their medicinal and other uses and convert it into easily navigable computerize data base for easy access
and to secure patenting rights; to discourage other countries for patenting Indian heritage; to transfer
knowledge to all sectors who are interested to know about our Indian Systems of Medicine; most of our
knowledge is in Sanskrit, Arabic, Persian and other classical languages, which needs to be translated to other
modern languages. The tribes of Bastar region are known for their unique and distinctive tribal culture and
heritage in all over the world. Each tribal group in Bastar has their own distinct culture and enjoys their own
unique traditional living styles. To assess the Tribals traditional healing practices and knowledge, data were
collected by household surveys (viewed as the main component of the field work), oral histories (based on open
discussions with widely recognized knowledgeable elders), Focused discussions with mothers at local health
centers, local market surveys, questionnaires administered to elder members of villagers / healers and
structured interviews with (both modern and traditional) professional health practitioners.
Present studies, therefore bear special significance, to be first of its kind to document the traditional
knowledge of the primitive tribes of Bastar, Chhattisgarh as well as in India, with a systematic recording the
tribal knowledge
ABSTRACT- Aritar is hilly area and altitude of the area varies from 800-3000 meter. The region harbor different tribal communities like Lepcha, Bhutia, Sherpa, Limboo, Newar, Chettri, Bhaun, Rai, Tamang, Sunwar, and Gurung. Due to the diversity of different tribal communities, traditional healers of different groups are found in this area. Medicinal importances of different plants were recorded after conducting interview with traditional healers, old man, women of different tribal communities of the area. The traditional medicinal uses of 50 plants species belonging to 38 families are reported in my study.

Health and the provision of healthcare is fundamental to the welfare of any nation.Traditional medicine is the fundamental method used by humans to preserve health and avoid diseases since ancient times. Traditional medication essentially entails the use of herbal remedies, animal parts, and minerals. Traditional medicine practices can serve as an effective basis for the discovery and development of modern therapeutic drugs. Nigeria’s path to greater prosperity lies through investment in the social determinants of the healthcare system. This paper focuses on the traditional medicine in Nigeria. Matthew N. O.

Studies in Ethnobotany Focus on Traditional Plant Applications and Indigenous...AI Publications
Ethnobotany is a subfield of botany that studies the relationships between traditional societies and the plants in their environments. In its widest sense, ethnobotany is the study of how plants have shaped the worldviews and historical narratives of indigenous peoples, as well as how these people evaluate the efficacy of modern scientific knowledge. Ethnobotanical research may provide light on the complex relationships between plants and indigenous peoples, both in the past and the present. While modern society may look down on our ancestors as primitive and barbaric, they really helped us advance by teaching us how to utilize plants for food, medicine, chemicals, colors, wood products, textiles, and so on. As this study progressed, it became abundantly evident that the vast body of past studies on rural and tribal medicines in North Eastern India had just scratched the surface. There is still plenty to do and write down before it's all gone forever. Interviews and on-location observations were used extensively in this study's investigation. The information on medicinal plants and interview notes were written down in field notebooks. Traditional plant knowledge and the usage of curative wild herbs by the Marakwet people were the focus of a study. As a result of interviews with traditional healers and community people, a list of the plants' traditional names was developed. As much as sixty percent of plant names are same, it is clear that traditional names for medicinal plants are vanishing. Nearly all locals (94.8 percent) knew which traditional medicinal herbs were best for treating stomach problems, followed by diarrhea (70.7 percent), chest discomfort (65.5 percent), and typhoid (63.3 percent). Locals have a low knowledge index (23.6%) of curative plants, according to traditional healers.

Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.

From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.

3. Introduction: Traditional medicine is an ancient medical
practice that existed in human societies before the
application of modern science to health. It has evolved to
reflect different philosophical backgrounds and cultural
origins. Although modern medicine is widely spread,
traditional tribal medicine still exists in all the countries
across the world. Interest in traditional medicine system
has increased over the years. People in many countries
are now prepared to look for alternative approaches to
maintain their health.
4. Importance of Indigenous Medicines: Indigenous medicine can
be defined as the knowledge, skills and practices of holistic health
care, recognized and accepted for its role in the diagnosis,
preventive and curative aspects of illness and disease to promote
total wellbeing of the community. The approach is holistic and
blending of physical, mental, social and spiritual well being. Its
use is global. Even in the age of developed western system of
medicine the indigenous system of medicine has thrived as the
indigenous system of medicines are found to be positive,
beneficial and scientifically sound. The traditional adivasi
medicine men are regarded as the traditional healers in their
societies and they do not belong to any specific school, such as
Ayurvedic/Allopathic/Homeopathic etc. There is no written
document on the subject. The principle ingredients of indigenous
medicine are derived from plant source. Various types of plants
and herbs available in the nature are collected for medical
purposes by the healers themselves.
5.
6. India has a great variety of traditional healing systems. Over the
centuries, adivasis have developed their own medicine system.
The indigenous Adivasi system of medicine based on indigenous
theories and beliefs has been handed down orally from
generation to generation. There are no written records on this
branch of medicine. All the ingredients for the medicines are
derived from nature. Besides herbs, seeds, roots and barks,
various minerals, metals and other natural matters in their
powdered form, are used for the preparations. The healers
themselves gather all the necessary plants and herbs that grow
wild in the forests intoning special prayers. There are
prescriptions prohibitions and taboos for collection of plants and
herbs on specific day and time. It is also believed that a particular
plant or herb or part thereof is not collected on prescribed date
and time, it looses its medicinal value.
7. Traditional adivasi healers are unlicensed but not
necessarily untrained. Like physicians, they pursue their
specialties, learning by observation and imitation. Often
healing is considered a gift that runs in a family and is
passed down from generation to generation. The ability
to set bones, for example, is thought to be hereditary as
is the power to stop bleeding. The Adivasi herbal
medicines have absolutely no side effects.
8. A large proportion of the population in a number of
developing countries still relies on traditional tribal
practitioners, including traditional birth attendants, herbalists
and bonesetters and on local medicinal plants to meet their
primary health care needs. Today indigenous system of
medicine is making dramatic comeback and scientists are
turning to natural products for answer to ailments like
cancer, AIDS, hepatitis and rheumatoid arthritis.
9. Indigenous medicine under increasing threat: The
traditional indigenous medicine system of late is facing a
new threat. The modern pharmaceutical companies are
plundering the herbal wealth of the forests for
manufacturing the modern medicines. This endangers the
very survival of the species and makes it more difficult for
traditional healers to find the herbs they need for their
medicines. Government must take steps to prevent this
before irrevocable damage has been done. Another great
danger is deforestation, and the adivasis have been
protesting against this practice as for them the forest is
their life.

11. Traditional knowledge is in demand as a source of information of
the possible properties of biological material. The traditional
adivasi knowledge is not protected within the patent system as it
stands today. The turmeric case highlights the problems faced by
India in preventing bio-piracy. The recording of traditional
knowledge seeks to reduce the possibility of bio-piracy, but looks
to future legislation to effectively protect the rights of the people.
Some important structural changes based on a sound legal
footing are proposed, which can be easily incorporated within the
present databases, and would go a long way in preventing bio-
piracy and protecting the interests of the knowledge-holders
footing. Realizing the potentiality of tribal medicines in curing
various of chronic diseases, Pharmaceutical companies are
trying their best to have the knowledge and register in their name
under intellectual property rights.
12. Need for promoting and protecting Indigenous Medicine
System: In developing countries like India where more than one-
third of the population lack access to essential medicines, the
provision of safe and effective traditional and alternative remedies
could become an important source of increasing access to health
care. One way to ensure this is to integrate traditional medicine
into the formal health system, thus ensuring better safety and
adequate follow-up for patients. As the modern medicine is costly
and the common people are not in position to buy it so there is
greater need for promotion of adivasi medicines. Since tribal
medicine is integrated in other cultural elements of a society, its
concept and practice are epistemologically transmitted from
generation to generation orally in the absence of written language
in non litrate and pre literate societies, there is strong need for
documentation of such languishing tradition and try them after
proper scientific study
