Hi there!
It was a beautiful sunrise this morning - what a lovely day here in December in the UK. Cold though!
Wednesdays are ok for me - I am not working in the impossibly busy general practice, have in interesting time in the morning at the Boarding School where I work as School Medical Officer, and after some time working from home I spend the afternoon in the urogynaec9ology clinic at Eastbourne - I love this work, as I have 30 minutes per patient (not 10), which is an absolute luxury.
Tonight there was a GP meeting on appraisal and revalidation. I had my appraisal last week, so could breath a sigh of relief for another year. There was a lot of banter from a large group of overtired GPs tonight, for whom the process of gathering information (and of scoring learning opportunities with a new scoring system) seems an impossible task.
Anyway, just a quick note about a study on the effects on the immune system of nutritional supplements. The British Journal of Nutrition published this information last year, highlighting the importance of supplements with minerals and antioxidants - particularly interesting that it mentions zinc, as I was rec0ommending zinc supplementation to a lady only today!
I'll post the extract up tomorrow...
Keep looking after yourselves - I will by going to sleep now instead of continuing at the coputer past midnight...
Keep Healthy - True Health Comes from Within!
