Abstract
Background: Solar energy via plants to animals is consumed by human beings. We acquire and use this energy. Complex development via evolution and mutation for the last few billion years have made our bodies to continue our symbiotic co-existence with its hostile and yet the lifegiving environment. Evidence indicates that a sustainable, optimal and holistic health and happiness can come only from synergetic relationships. We the advocates of “health for all” would have to make the public well informed so that people adopt sound lifestyles utilising the capabilities of their bodies as the bodies were meant to be in the context of its total environment and our true position in it. Scientifically (medically) speaking, we have an abundance of knowledge (of the parts) at this stage of our development; however, there are only a few people who have attained a true wisdom of putting the ‘parts’ together and constructing the ‘whole.’ The epidemic of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) is on a path of a never-ending journey toward the worst. For the communities to take effective charge of the situation, it becomes expedient for the public to understand the broad pathogenesis of these well-established health issues vis-àvis life and living. We, the medical professionals are well placed to enlighten the masses and reverse the epidemic of CVD. Methods: It involved sharing wisdom to bring about lifestyle change through common sense, common person language, and through the practice of ‘a two-way honest communication daily (one-to-one), weekly (group sessions) and periodically in the community for the last 16 years by the author. Use of information-sharing in relation to body’s homoeostasis, self-correcting, self-preserving and slow but sure continuous acclimatization to the dynamic environment was made an integral part of all the sessions. Conclusion: Understanding life, living, energy transfer and the purpose of the living bodies puts people in a better position to tackle their multifaceted problems of ill health, particularly the CVD with and, or without the co-morbidities of obesity, diabetes mellitus-II, etc. This happens when people are well informed and thus self-motivated to use the obtained wisdom adopting certain lifestyles in tune with nature. This will help physicians to lead a crusade of ‘health for all through wisdom’. Wisdom of knowing the nature of the body, body functions and its internal and external relationships, helps people to follow simple strategies to secure the most optimal health while reducing the physical, developmental, emotional, psychological, financial and other resource constraints/burdens on the individuals, the families, the healthcare providers and the nations.
