For those of us who live here on Saipan (as well as Tinian and Rota), the very phrase presents some unique contradictions. Sure, we've got the world's cleanest air, the most equable temperature in the world according to the Guinness Book of World Records, seven shades of "Saipan Blue" waters, amazing "green flash" sunsets; fruit trees with superfoods abound--noni, soursop, bitter melon, malunggay (moringa) line the streets free for the taking (or asking)--and don't forget, friendly people! Yes, it's paradise! At the same time, we've got challenges: one of the highest rates of diabetes along with the complications that come with that; obesity, and a diet that seems to have given refugee status to all the sugar, spam and MSG the rest of the world has deported! There seems to be a disconnect. I've always believed, however, that Saipan has the potential to be one of the world's healthiest destinations. For that to happen, however, something has to change. "Just give me a few things I can start doing right away!" This ebook is the short answer to a request I get all the time during my health talks with people who wish to become vegan, vegetarian or simply eat a little healthier. It's not meant to be a treatise on health, simply a starting point for a longer journey. Long held dietary norms are often challenging to change and not a topic I care to debate. However, given what is known beyond doubt to be detrimental to health, and what we know beyond doubt can improve health, this ebook is a list of modifications to diet and lifestyle that are possible here on Saipan through a combination of local stores, as online vendors and simply the natural environment. If you're newly on the path to perfect health, long life and the fountain of youth, this short ebook has a "beginner's list" of actions you can take right now. It includes product photos, specific local stores/vendors as well as online sources. For further reading, check out A Clean Cell Never Dies, which has a host of products and protocols to reverse aging and live healthier. For some, these new habits may be easy to adopt. For others, it may require some effort....but anything worthwhile does.

ISBN: 0309174430

The U.S.-Associated Pacific Basin consists of six island jurisdictions: American Samoa, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, Guam, the Federated States of Micronesia, Republic of the Marshall Islands, and the Republic of Palau. This book examines one aspect of the ties and U.S. involvement with this part of the world--its role in the region's health care delivery system. Although the health status of the islanders and the challenges faced by the health care systems naturally vary within and among the jurisdictions, in general, almost all health indicators for the islanders are worse than those of mainland Americans. The health systems in the area must deal with conditions normally seen in developing countries (e.g., malnutrition, tuberculosis, dengue fever, and cholera) and in developed countries alike (e.g., diabetes, heart disease, and cancer). In examining the strengths and weaknesses of the area's systems, the volume provides a regional health overview and assessments of health care in individual jurisdictions, evaluates the Pacific Basin Medical Officers Training Program, and lays out a strategic plan for future health services in the U.S.-Associated Pacific Basin.
