Poultry are a major source of valuable high-quality protein for much of the world's population, so food security is heavily dependent on maintaining poultry health. They are also increasingly important as specialist hobby animals in back-yard flocks. Despite this, veterinarians specializing in the care and health of these important domestic animals are few and far between, and many vets in small animal practice have little real experience of poultry health management and disease. Providing a comprehensive overview, this new handbook will help to plug this gap with 46 chapters of practical and accessible poultry health and management. Written by international experts, this book forms a valuable illustrated resource for veterinary professionals, veterinary students, or those entering the poultry industry.

This book addresses the important area of the role of research in the modernisation of mental health services. It explores theoretical, methodological and practical issues relating to developing evidence to underpin the evolving modernisation agenda. The material is divided into three key thematic sections. The first addresses matters of theory and methodology and considers the current theoretical base for mental health research and development and critically reviews important methodological themes. In the process, it addresses new perspectives to broaden the theoretical and methodological bases to include areas that are not normally included in mental health research. The second section reviews the frameworks that set the current context of mental health research and development. These are higher education policy, the national NHS R&D policy, the evolving National Institute for Mental Health and clinical governance in the NHS. Each policy framework is critically reviewed. The third section covers critical reviews of models of practice and their relationships to research. The areas of practice covered present lessons to be learnt and issues to be addressed for the future. The book concludes with a review of the discussions in the preceding chapters, highlighting debates and lessons learnt and arguing a case for moving forward mental health R&D. Addresses theory and methodology of mental health researchExamines frameworks for UK mental health policy developmentPoints out essential components of good quality research programmes

Intermittent fasting Intermittent fasting is one of the most common health and fitness trends in the world right now. It's becoming popular for one reason, according to a well-known research magazine: it works. Whether you're trying to lose weight or boost your biomarkers for better health, intermittent fasting is a cost-effective way to do both. Fasting isn't about depriving yourself of food; it's more of an eating habit than a diet. It entails fasting and eating periods that alternate. It's an extremely successful therapeutic strategy that delivers amazing results regardless of diet plan when performed correctly. If you're having trouble with your fitness, weight, or a chronic illness, I am persuaded that this is the most effective intervention available. ANTI-INFLAMMATORY DIET What exactly does an anti-inflammatory diet do? Your immune system starts acting against any substance, which it thinks is foreign. In most cases, it is an invading microbe, plant pollen or rogue chemical. That leads to a process called inflammation. In the right situations, this process looks after your health. But sometimes, one's immune system might not be up to the mark. That is when inflammation persists, day in and day out. It is activated even at times when there your body isn't facing any external threat from a foreign invader. That is when inflammation can prove to be bad for your health. Chronic inflammation can lead to many diseases of epidemic proportions such as cancer, heart disease, diabetes, arthritis, depression, and Alzheimer's. Now you might be asking if chronic inflammation is such a prevalent and dangerous thing, why is there no medical remedy for it? There is indeed a remedy for chronic inflammation. But it is not available at a pharmacy. Instead, you can find the right tools to combat inflammation at your nearest grocery store. There are many experiments and studies which indicate that some particular components of food and beverages may possess specific anti-inflammatory effects. If you choose the right anti-inflammatory food to incorporate into your diet, you might be able to reduce your risk of illness. That comes with a risky gamble, however. If you consistently pick the wrong ingredients for your food, you can even accelerate the painful process of your inflammatory disease.
