Which of the following has documented extensive evidence that the delivery of medical care in inequitable and that ethnic and ra
denpristay [2]

Answer:

The options for the questions is not given but I do believe institutional racism has documented extensive evidence that delivery of medical care is inequitable and that ethinical and racial minorities may receive poorer health care quality than white Americans.

Explanation:

Gary King, an insightful theoretical analyst analysis in his research of (1996:35) and argues that "explanations of racial differences in medical care and of participation rates in medical research are grounded in institutional racism and in the professional ideologies of medicine and health care systems that lead to power imbalances between minorities and medicine's elite professionals"

King identifies three phrases of research which are: (1) initial “exploratory research,” which documented the differences between blacks and whites in medical care, utilizing quantitative data; (2) “contemporary” research, which focuses on coronary artery disease (CAD) and other specific diseases, using severe methods to investigate causes of disparities in treatment; and (3) most recently, “an incisive period in which researchers attempt to combine theory, methods and policy considerations” (1996:36).

King argues that for one to understand the documented differences, one must come to understand covert(implicit) as well as overt(explicit) racism and the multiple faced dimensions of institutional racism in medical and health institutions (1996:43).

In studies over several decades, it is found that “the medical gaze” soon becomes the dominant knowledge frame through medical school, that time and efficiency are highly prized, and that students and their attendings are most caring of patients who are willing to become part of their medical story that they wish to tell and the therapeutic activities they hope to pursue

How to lose weight fast
lawyer [7]

Calories are the energy in food. Your body has a constant demand for energy and uses the calories from food to keep functioning. Energy from calories fuels your every action, from fidgeting to marathon running.

Carbohydrates, fats and proteins are the types of nutrients that contain calories and are the main energy sources for your body. Regardless of where they come from, the calories you eat are either converted to physical energy or stored within your body as fat.

These stored calories will remain in your body as fat unless you use them up, either by reducing calorie intake so that your body must draw on reserves for energy, or by increasing physical activity so that you burn more calories.

Tipping the scale

Your weight is a balancing act, but the equation is simple: If you eat more calories than you burn, you gain weight. And if you eat fewer calories and burn more calories through physical activity, you lose weight.

In general, if you cut 500 to 1,000 calories a day from your typical diet, you'll lose about 1 pound (0.5 kilogram) a week.

It sounds simple. However, it's more complex because when you lose weight, you usually lose a combination of fat, lean tissue and water. Also, because of changes that occur in the body as a result of weight loss, you may need to decrease calories further to continue weight loss.
