The "Week of Prevention of Drug Use" is taking place in Russia from 23 to 29 June. It was announced by the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation in honor of the International Day against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking, which is celebrated on June 26. The spread of drug use and addiction is one of the most serious problems of modern society.

Drugs are substances that can affect the nervous system and cause a change in human consciousness. All drugs are involved in chemical processes occurring in the brain, change them and lead to the development of addiction – the need to constantly take a psychoactive substance. This can lead to the development of severe addiction – drug addiction, which is characterized by an irresistible attraction to a psychoactive substance. Drug use causes mental changes, isolation, impoverishment of emotional reactions, perceptual disorders, and motor disorders.

Among drug addicts, the majority are young people, mostly under the age of 35. Most people become addicted to drugs "for company", and then they lose most of their social contacts. Due to the violation of the emotional and personal sphere, he becomes uninterested in former friends. Finding money to buy drugs moves people into the criminal strata of society. Death from drug use occurs very quickly, which leads to an increase in mortality among young people.

Remember, there are no safe drugs!

From June 16 to June 22, 2025, the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation declared awareness week on the importance of physical activity. In the modern world, the physical activity of the population continues to decline: every fourth adult does not move enough. 

However, physical activity is vital for each of us, not only for well-being. Regular exercise has been proven to reduce the risk of developing cardiovascular diseases, obesity, and type 2 diabetes, as well as reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression, and improve mental performance. As we can see, there are quite a lot of positive reasons to move more. Remember, any activity is better than no activity. What will help us?

***Walking. Walking trains the cardiovascular system and improves mood. Try to walk more whenever possible.:

• get to the bus stop earlier on your way home from work;

• use stairs instead of elevators;

***Exercise and warm-up. Charging does not take much time and lasts no more than 10-15 minutes, and warming up at the workplace does not take more than 5 minutes. It will give you vigor and strength. Don't forget to move!

The week from June 9 to June 15, 2025, has been declared Addiction Withdrawal Week by the Russian Ministry of Health. The doctors of the Krasivo sanatorium join a significant information campaign and hold talks and lectures about a healthy lifestyle.

Addiction is a psychological or physiological need for something that a person needs to satisfy their emotional or physical needs. It can be:

• Alcohol consumption

• Drug use

• Smoking

• Gambling or Internet addiction

• Eating disorders, etc.

    Smoking, drug addiction and alcohol abuse are the most common of all dangerous harmful habits (addictions) that cause enormous harm.:

      Alcohol is a poison that affects all body systems and is the cause of more than 200 different pathologies.

      Nicotine-containing products cause the same harm to the body. Remember! There is no such thing as safe tobacco!

     Drug addiction is the toxic effect of illegal drugs that not only destroys a person as a person, leads to functional changes in all organs, but often leads to premature death.

    It is important to remember that it is never too late to give up harmful addictions, because it is positive habits such as sports, daily routine, and proper nutrition that form the basis of a healthy life!

Children's Health Week is taking place from 2 to 8 June 2025. In the modern world, the health of the younger generation is negatively affected by many factors.

Tobacco Cessation Week has been announced from May 26 to June 1, 2025, timed to coincide with World No Tobacco Day on May 31. The medical staff of the Krasivo sanatorium join the information campaign – they hold talks and distribute printed materials about the dangers of smoking. 

The purpose of the Week is to help reduce the prevalence of tobacco addiction, involve all segments of the population and doctors of all specialties in the fight against smoking, prevent tobacco smoking and inform society about the harmful effects of tobacco on health.

Tobacco addiction is recognized as one of the most widespread epidemics in the history of mankind - nicotinomania. It is on a par with alcoholism and drug addiction.

Everyone knows that smoking is harmful.  According to the World Health Organization (WHO), people who started smoking in adolescence and have more than 25 years of smoking experience have a reduced life expectancy of 15-20 years compared to those who have never smoked. About 6 million people on the planet – according to the same WHO - die annually as a result of tobacco use. This does not mean that a person lit a cigarette and died immediately. Smokers die from diseases that have arisen in their bodies as a result of smoking – these are diseases of the heart, blood vessels, and lungs. You can always quit smoking. Take care of yourself!

The endocrine system is one of the key systems in the human body, responsible for hormonal balance and overall health. Diseases of the endocrine system are becoming more common every year.  The main factors that lead to the development of endocrine disorders include: infectious diseases, hereditary factors, chronic diseases of other organs and systems, cardiovascular insufficiency, surgical interventions, and taking a number of medications.

Since hormones produced by the endocrine glands regulate the functioning of organs and systems, endocrine diseases disrupt metabolism and cause symptoms characteristic, for example, of skin diseases, kidneys, etc. There are many causes of thyroid disease, but 90% of thyroid diseases are caused by iodine deficiency.  The consumption of iodized salt helps to prevent endocrine disorders.

 Endocrine disease prevention measures often involve lifestyle choices that support overall health and hormonal balance. It is very important to consult with a medical professional for individual recommendations and regular checkups in order to monitor your health and identify any potential problems in a timely manner. We wish you good health!
