Daily Health Care and Medical Tips

The National Observatory on Women’s Health has published the second edition of the “White Paper on women’s health,” a publication that analyzes health status and service in the Italian regions.

According to an interesting article in the Republic book contains several bad news: Italian women are increasingly overweight, is ill with diabetes than men and in the southern regions of the obesity rate is alarming to say the least (35% Camp).

Also increase hospitalizations for psychiatric illness and the percentage of caesareans.

The girls of today, the weakest in the face of smoking and alcohol, are likely to become, will not be triggered if the reverse relation to certain behaviors, the first generation to live less than mothers.
