November 14 is World Diabetes Day, which was introduced in 1991 by the International Diabetes Federation and the World Health Organization in response to the threat of increasing diabetes worldwide. November 14th was chosen in order to perpetuate the merits of the doctor - F. Bunting. The urgency of the problem is due to the scale of the spread of diabetes mellitus. The medical staff of the sanatorium "Krasivo" join the information campaign and hold talks, seminars, lectures, distribute posters, flyers, booklets on a significant topic.
The goal of World Diabetes Day is to raise awareness about diabetes — not only about the number of people with diabetes, but also about how to prevent the development of this disease in many cases. Today, diabetes ranks fourth among the causes of premature mortality. Every 10-15 years, the total number of patients doubles. In order to keep the disease under control and live a full life, it is necessary to follow the rules.
Avoid being overweight and exercise.
Give up smoking and excessive alcohol consumption.
Regularly monitor blood glucose levels, blood pressure, total cholesterol and at least once a year undergo a full medical examination and medical examination, as well as not to expose yourself to stress and follow a diet. Take care of yourself!
From November 4 to 10, 2024, Russia is hosting a Week of Maintaining Mental Comfort (in honor of the International Stress Awareness Week). The main offender of mental comfort is stress (translated from English as "pressure", "tension"). Stress can be positive and negative, acute and chronic. Severe negative acute and chronic stress often leads to adverse consequences.
It is almost impossible to avoid stress, since a person, when faced with various situations at home and at work, reacts emotionally to these events. The intensity of the labor process differs among people of different professions. To minimize the negative effects of stress, stick to such attitudes:
1. Try to lead a measured life. Plan your working day in advance.
2. Get enough sleep! An adult needs 7-8 hours of sleep on average.
3. Do not eat "on the run": breakfast, lunch and dinner should be a rest time.
4. Do not try to relieve stress with tobacco or alcohol.
5. Physical activity will help to relieve emotional stress.
6. Take some time every day to relax and read. Draw, make music if you play an instrument, sing, sew, embroider.
7. Find time to distract yourself, switch to activities that cause you positive emotions: going to a museum, cinema and nature walks.
8. There is no way to change the circumstances of life — change your attitude towards them. Carefully analyze your experiences. 9. Focus on the positive: the circumstances of your life are often better than you think. Just take an objective look at yourself.
10. Watch your mood as well as your appearance. A friendly facial expression and smile will improve your mood and health.
Believe in yourself!

Breast Cancer Week is being held in Russia from October 14 to 20, 2024 (in honor of Breast Cancer Month). Breast cancer (breast cancer) is one of the most common oncological diseases not only in Russia, but also around the world. Breast cancer is a disease in which abnormal cells in breast tissues begin to divide uncontrollably and form a tumor. The earliest form (the so–called "cancer in situ") is not life-threatening. But tumor cells can spread to adjacent breast tissues (invasion). As the tumor continues to grow, a bulky formation or thickening occurs. Invasive cancer can spread to nearby lymph nodes or other organs (metastasize). Metastasis can be fatal.
Certain forms of breast tumors (and there are more than 30 types) can occur in half of the female population (i.e., every second woman over 30 years old). Fortunately, the vast majority are benign and do not threaten health.
Breast cancer prevention should be mandatory for all women. These are maintaining a healthy lifestyle, proper and balanced nutrition, prevention of stress and conflict situations, giving up bad habits, observing the daily routine, preventive examinations and medical examinations.
Take care of yourself and your loved ones! Be healthy!

October 7-13, 2024 – The Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation declared Mental Health Week. Employees of the sanatorium "Krasivo" join the information campaign, have prepared popular science films, lectures, talks, information leaflets and booklets on a significant topic for vacationers.
Throughout our lives, numerous individual and social factors can both protect and, conversely, undermine our mental health. Risk factors can manifest themselves at all stages of a person's life. Mental health promotion activities are based on the individual and social characteristics of everyone, their environment, the environment where a person spends most of his life. Activities that affect mental health go far beyond healthcare.
There are simple ways to influence the state of your physical and mental health:
give up bad habits;
eat right;
observe the water balance;
develop positive thinking.
Mental stress should be accompanied by physical stress.
Regular muscle work helps to normalize the balance of excitation and inhibition processes in the nervous system. The most universal way to protect the psyche is regular physical education and relaxation, walking and creativity, reading and dancing. Stay healthy, keep an eye on your mental health!
Healthy Longevity Day is a significant information campaign that is held throughout the country. The medical staff of the sanatorium "Beautifully" support this holiday and have prepared lectures, talks, leaflets and booklets on this topic for vacationers. One of the national development goals of the Russian Federation is the preservation of the population. The key indicator is an increase in life expectancy to 78 years in the period up to 2030. To achieve these results, the federal project "The Older Generation" of the national project "Demography" was developed. It is very important to keep healthy and active in old age. Many questions that seem to be accessible only to young people can now be accessible to older people. Special attention should be paid to the prevention of osteoporosis, decreased sensory functions (hearing, vision), cognitive impairment, decreased muscle mass, falls of the elderly and domestic injuries. Achieving the goals of longevity is possible if three main tasks are solved: • health in old age; • a decent life in old age; • Active participation of older citizens in the life of society.
Remember, health and longevity are in your hands!
