Last night on Carte Blanche Medical...
On Carte Blanche Medical on Monday, 8 November, the team looked at preventing and managing diabetes, explored the body's in-built mechanism for recovery after trauma, shared some tips on how to deal with a medical emergency involving broken bones, paid a visit to the Bränemark Institute in Johannesburg and looked at how nuts, yoghurt, whole grains and watermelon pips can keep you young.
Globally, diabetes is on the rise as people increasingly opt for high fat and energy-rich foods. Carte Blanche Medical spoke to Dr Ngobeni Gabaza about how to prevent and manage this condition.
Dr David Bercelli then shared his research into the human body’s in-built mechanism for recovery from trauma and restoring internal balance. Though modern humans often suppress it, Bercelli’s trauma-releasing exercises re-induce the biological response and can assist both traumatised soldiers returning from war-zones like Iraq as much as ordinary people, anywhere in the world.
Unlucky enough to really break a limb? The team told you how to deal with a medical emergency involving broken bones.
Next, Carte Blanche Medical took to one of only three Bränemark institutes worldwide that, in a coup for South Africa, has just been established in Johannesburg to restore the faces of badly disfigured individuals using medical technology seldom seen before.
Finally – if we really are what we eat then can food keep us young? The team looked at how nuts, yoghurt, whole grains and even watermelon pips can stem the tide of ageing.
