    UK NHS: Government proposed changes from July 2024

    Offer ? Who offered what ? Retail ? This is a very big national contract snaffled up to train staff being blamed for the system. Around here almost all the hospital admin and reception need no extra training they are VERY good and the Health Trust somehow balances the books without nipping...

    Vitamin B6

    Every time I asked the nutritionists who work for the manufacturers they say mega-dosing is scientifically formulated and needed because we all know the daily requirements are set too low and tests showing harm were done on rats using mega-mega-mega doses we'd never consume so totally...

    Precision Nutrition: The Hype Is Exceeding the Science and Evidentiary Standards (…)Public Health (…) Prevention of Chronic Disease, Bailey, 2023

    If people in the rank and file could be valued enough to work half the hours for twice the pay they may be happy to cook all their meals the old way (or work full-time and pay a cook as plenty do on twice the pay). Choice would be a fine thing. The demand is for cheap not for nasty. But if one...

    United Kingdom: ME Association governance issues

    harping on - to the best of my knowledge, the ME Society was only dormant up until 2018 then it distinctly did stop registering as dormant, and maybe began to hold some assets, liabilities and / or reserve, since it stopped filing £0 Instead, from January 2019, it registered as quite big...

    THANKYOU @Suffolkres thankyou, I will need to read this when its easier. This is no time for hogging the trough. The Faculty of Occupational Health does not sound like the professional body of the Occupational Therapists (OTs) Is it another conglomerated health-advisory assessor agency...

    Explaining persistent physical symptoms to patients in general practice: can tests to measure central sensitisation add value? 2024, den Boer et al

    Did the vetting of standardised methodology get delegated to the ethics committees ?

    @Peter Trewhitt but don't we know that in these proceedings (of those meetings that changed some articles-of-association) the MEA Trustees and their MEA Advisors gave reasons to the Members who made these changes. Reasons so effective and so so unspeakable that such reasoned reasonable Trustee...
