Basic Primary Prevention Review:
Progress in the scientific knowledge of health and well being and the body's response to stress and the relationship to the development of chronic disease (2006)
Abstract: Over recent years there has been great progress in the scientific knowledge of health and well being and the body's response to stress and the relationship to the development of chronic disease.
Interactions and interdependency exist between the nervous, endocrine and immune systems in response to the social environment.
This paper reviews this progress and sets out the action that can be taken to improve well being using basic primary prevention activities.
