BizNews Health covers cutting-edge research, advances, opinions and debates in medicine, health and wellbeing from orthodox, complementary and alternative perspectives. We have a special focus on nutrition, fitness, longevity medicine, and prevention of non-communicable diseases – such as obesity, cancer, type 2 diabetes, heart disease and stroke, increasingly mood disorders such as depression, and dementias. We include lifestyle and travel to healthy destinations, since mind and body are integrally connected, and optimum health is not just the absence of disease, but a state of complete physical, mental, and even spiritual wellbeing.
