Nella società odierna è molto diffusa l’idea che prevenire significhi fare abitualmente visite, controlli, esami e radiografie. Ciò deriva probabilmente dalla consuetudine di considerare la medicina come una pratica atta a “curare” semplicemente eliminando i sintomi delle patologie. Per questo tipo di medicina, il sintomo è qualcosa di inopportuno da sopprimere immediatamente e la malattia è un “male” che va debellato il soon as possible and not the expression of an imbalance in the state of health. The many television programs that deal with medical, health, welfare, widespread advertising campaigns for the "prevention" of various diseases, pseudo-scientific articles that have appeared in magazines especially for women are all geared towards this purpose.
prevention understood in this way can only investigate the detection of the presence or absence of disease, particularly if asymptomatic. The aim is to have a starting point to make any further examination. But this is to discover the disease only when it is present, not prevent it. In addition, once checked the presence following the intervention of a disease is based on the use of drugs or invasive healing techniques more or less in order to eliminate the annoying symptoms, or surgery.
Among the more practical use for this purpose are, in addition to traditional blood tests, gastroscopy, electrocardiograms, etc.., X-rays, now often replaced by the TAC. In an article in the magazine L'Europeo "in 1994, states that each year about 1000 Italians die as a result of X-ray examinations carried out to check their state of health! Italy is the fourth country in the world rankings by the number of radiological examinations performed each year per capita (1), after Japan (2), Germany (1.4) and USA (1.2). The long-term exposure to X-rays cause cancer (leukemia, thyroid cancer, etc..) And genetic (both morphological changes in somatic cells that chromosomal and genetic mutations observed in successive generations). Exposure to small doses has no symptoms in the short term and long-term these are very difficult to ascertain because the damages, if emerging many years after they occur on very low percentage of the population.
In a more natural, holistic, prevention may be understood as the ability to maintain good health, both with natural food is a style of life as natural.
Traditional Chinese Medicine has always regarded the prevention of disease a major virtue.
in the I Ching (Book of Changes) states:
