Medicine
1 answer:
nekit [7.7K]3 years ago

Answer:

⇒ In the Liver

⇒ Ketone bodies are produced by the liver and used peripherally as an energy source when glucose is not readily available. The two main ketone bodies are acetoacetate (AcAc) and 3-beta-hydroxybutyrate (3HB), while acetone is the third, and least abundant, ketone body.

⇒ Ketones and ketoacids are alternative fuels for the body that are made when glucose is in short supply. They are made in the liver from the breakdown of fats. Ketones are formed when there is not enough sugar or glucose to supply the body's fuel needs. This occurs overnight, and during dieting or fasting.

La OMS (Organización Mundial de la Salud) definió a la salud como "el estado de completo bienestar físico, mental y social, y no
seropon [69]

Answer:

La definición de salud de la OMS establece que la salud no es solo la ausencia de enfermedad sino que también es estar bien mentalmente, físicamente y socialmente. Esta definición no abarca solo curar a una persona cuando esté enferma, también habla sobre la prevención de la enfermedad manteniendo una vida equilibrada en lo que concierne a lo físico, mental y social.

La definición de salud de la OPS es mucho más estrecha. Esta solo incluye la adaptación de la persona a su medio, lo cual si lo comparamos con la definición de la OMS este concepto podría entrar dentro del bienestar físico, mental y social. Podemos ver que no se refiere específicamente a la enfermedad y que la ausencia de esta sería por una adaptación exitosa de la persona. A su vez la adaptación es una forma de prevenir la ausencia de salud según la definición de la OPS.

Explanation:

La Organización Mundial de la Salud y la Organización Panamericana de la Salud. son dos entidades que se especializan en la salud a nivel internacional. La OPS actualmente forma parte de la OMS ya que es una oficina para la región americana de la OMS. Estas dos organizaciones empezaron por separado y tienen definiciones de salud diferentes pero podemos ver que ambas trabajan para prevenir y curar enfermedades.
