A Look at Gale Health and Wellness on World Heath Day

Health Wellness

If there’s one area of knowledge where our understandings are constantly changing as new research comes to light, it’s health. And there’s such a range of therapies and treatments to suit the varied ways that illnesses affect people. We’re also fascinated about the ways we can maintain our health to help us live long, happy and productive lives.

Whatever you’re looking for on all things to do with health, Gale Health and Wellness could be your go-to for up-to-date information. You can find this resource on the Library website. Click on the Online Resources button on the home page, then scroll down to Gale Health and Wellness. You can browse topics according to six broad themes: Diseases and Conditions; Drugs, Diagnostics and Tests; Therapies, Treatments and Surgeries; Mental Health; and Community Health. Or you can browse from an alphabetical list of 391 sub-topics.

From gout to glaucoma, from meditation to meningitis, this is an extensive list encompassing not only articles on diseases, conditions and treatments but information on keeping well or getting fit. There are links to websites and further reading as well as helpful options for saving information to a selection of cloud storage apps. But remember, always to consult your doctor for any health concerns you may have.
