It is a natural source of reinvigorating electrolytes and youth-reviving minerals, including sodium, potassium, magnesium, and calcium, that we often don’t get enough of in modern life. The potassium in coconut water aids the kidneys to expel high sodium levels from the body, which leads to lower blood pressure. And lower blood pressure means higher physical stamina.

As a married man, if you use frankincense for aromatherapy, eat unripe plantain in moderation, and drink coconut water generously, you will experience a sharpened acumen that makes you more alert in the boardroom and the physical stamina that makes the bedroom a happy place.

And go out when it rains. If possible, walk barefoot on the grass. Walking barefoot retires your natural walking rhythm and helps reduce joint pains. Have you noticed that you breathe better and fresher air outside just after it rains? This is because rainwater is alkaline. It detoxifies the atmosphere, and you can even smell the goodness of rain. The life water in that coconut comes from rain.

Late nights are overrated. Sleep early and at the same times daily to restore your body’s circadian rhythm. It will help your body know what to expect from you, making it better able to work optimally.

Eat organic. Avoid alcohol, except natural wines that have not been diluted with sulphites. Work out every day. And have a relationship with God. I did not say either religion. I said with God.

There is only one God. So, even if you are not a believer in the teachings of Yeshu’a, that is okay. All power comes from God. Find a lonely place where you can ideate, meditate and rejuvenate regularly, and your mind will recalibrate naturally and spiritually.

A woman from Lusaka West is taking legal action against the State, seeking compensation of K10 million. She alleges that after undergoing surgery to remove fibroids from her womb, doctors left a surgical napkin inside her abdomen, leading to severe complications.

Misozi Phiri claims that following the operation, she experienced discomfort and later felt an unusual object during excretion, which turned out to be a surgical napkin. Despite this, it remained undiscovered until she experienced excruciating pain a year later, leading her to seek medical attention again.

The plaintiff asserts that the negligence of medical staff caused her immense physical pain, deterioration of health, and a near-death experience. She also seeks compensation for the emotional and mental distress caused by the ordeal.

Ms. Phiri’s legal action involves suing Dr. Mushota and the State, citing negligence and malpractice. She recounts a series of events, including being diagnosed with high blood pressure and subsequent complications, leading to the discovery of masses in her uterus and the eventual surgery where the napkin was allegedly left inside her.

The lawsuit underscores the need for accountability in medical care and highlights the devastating consequences of medical negligence on patients’ lives.

The World Health Organization (WHO) has sounded the alarm on the rising global toll of hepatitis virus-related deaths, with approximately 3,500 people succumbing to the virus each day. According to WHO data released to coincide with the World Hepatitis Summit in Portugal, the number of deaths from viral hepatitis has escalated to 1.3 million in 2022, up from 1.1 million in 2019.

Meg Doherty, head of the WHO’s global HIV, hepatitis, and sexually transmitted infection programs, expressed deep concern over the alarming situation during a press conference. The report revealed that the majority of deaths, 83 percent, are attributed to hepatitis B, while hepatitis C accounts for the remaining 17 percent.

Despite the availability of effective and affordable generic drugs for treating these viruses, the report highlighted that only a small fraction of those affected receive antiviral treatment. Specifically, by the end of 2022, only three percent of individuals with chronic hepatitis B had undergone antiviral therapy, while 20 percent of those with hepatitis C, totaling 12.5 million people, had been treated.

These figures fall significantly short of the global targets set to treat 80 percent of all individuals living with chronic hepatitis B and C by 2030. While there has been a slight decline in the overall rate of hepatitis infections, the WHO stresses the urgent need for swift action to combat this second-largest infectious killer worldwide.

The report underscores the importance of raising awareness about hepatitis prevention, increasing access to testing and treatment, and strengthening health systems to address the growing burden of hepatitis-related deaths. Failure to adequately address this public health crisis could have devastating consequences for millions of people worldwide.

As the global community grapples with the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, it is imperative not to overlook the silent epidemic of viral hepatitis. The WHO’s call for urgent action serves as a reminder of the pressing need to prioritize efforts to eliminate hepatitis and save lives worldwide.
