Par Dennis Henkel. 2023
Seit der Jahrtausendwende wagen Filmemacher immer häufiger, das gesellschaftlich drängende Thema Demenz in Großproduktionen aufzugreifen - für die große Leinwand…
mit ihren hochbudgetierten Produktionen war das bis dahin zu brenzlig, kontrovers und für Kassenschlager schlicht ungeeignet. Der Trend setzt sich bis heute fort: Allein 2020 schafften es sechs Großproduktionen um das Thema Demenz, teils mit Hollywoodstars besetzt, in die großen Kinosäle. Das Kino lernt also Vergessen! Die Autoren begeben sich in diesem Buch auf die Spuren dieser Entwicklung und heben gesellschaftlich und künstlerisch bemerkenswerte Aspekte hervor: Sie skizzieren die Perspektive der Erkrankten, der Angehörigen und die filmische Darstellung von Pflegeeinrichtungen. Filme weiblicher Regisseure und Werke aus anderen Kulturen fügen eine antipatriarchische und internationale Sichtweise auf die Erkrankung hinzu und zeigen Standpunkte jenseits stereotyper Vorstellungen auf. Darüber hinaus stellen die Autoren Filme vor, die das Thema “Demenz” mit weiteren umstrittenen Themen verbinden, wie z. B. der Homosexualität. Diese nutzen die Kraft der Fiktion, um uns zukünftige Weltentwürfe zu zeigen, in denen z. B. künstliche Intelligenz und futuristische Techniken Dementen das Leben erleichtern. Das Buch möchte so auf unterhaltsame Weise einen Beitrag zur Aufklärung über Demenz leisten und auch sensibilisieren für die künstlerisch-filmische Aufbereitung einerseits und medizinische Realität andererseits. Es richtet sich an alle kinobegeisterten Leser, ob mit oder ohne medizinisch-fachliche Vorkenntnisse - für unvergessliche Einblicke in das Thema “Demenz im Film”!'The diet that could save your life.' - The Times'A brilliant book if you have type 2 diabetes or you…

A groundbreaking protocol for minimizing inflammation, boosting energy, building immunity, improving digestion, and so much more—with the extraordinary power of…
medicinal plants The power of medicinal plants is life-changing. When integrated properly into our lives, they are uniquely capable of fine-tuning and strengthening our vital systems. They help to enhance digestion, balance the nervous system, increase energy, improve sleep, promote resilience to stress, reduce inflammation, elevate mood and cognition, increase libido and fertility, boost immunity, support detoxification, nourish the microbiome, and rehydrate the system. And all you have to do? Eat, drink, smell, share, and otherwise enjoy them. Written by William Siff, a licensed acupuncturist, clinical herbalist, and ethnobotanist who practices Ayurvedic and Traditional Chinese Medicine, The Plant Medicine Protocol is a comprehensive and easy-to-follow guide to integrating medicinal plants into daily life. Closely mirroring the approach Siff uses in the clinic and grounded in time-honored longevity practices of the world&’s healthiest cultures, the protocol is an effective, enjoyable, and practical approach to achieving optimal health, making us feel more energized, vibrant, and alive along the way. From starting the morning with a Chia-Aloe-Lime Rehydrator to mixing up a Nutmeg-Saffron Deep Sleep Elixir before bed, ingesting medicinal plant compounds in moderate amounts every day adds up, contributing to a natural resilience and vitality that fortifies us for a long, healthy life. Plants like ginseng, ginger, sea moss, and lavender contain a host of vital nutrients and unique phytochemicals that accelerate healing and repair while encouraging essential body systems and cellular mechanisms to function at their best. And easy recipes like Sparkling Rosemary Limeade, Peanut Butter–Maca–Goji Berry Smoothies, and Cacao Adaptogenic Energy Balls ensure that saturating your life with these medicinal plants is as practical as it is delicious.The Food of Sicily: Recipes from a Sun-Drenched Culinary Crossroads

the home cook, plus a loving tribute to its ingredients, passions, influences, and history Tucked away on an estate in the countryside south of Palermo is the Anna Tasca Lanza Cooking School, a unique center dedicated to preserving and sharing the great food culture of Sicily. The spirit of the school, now run by Fabrizia Lanza, the founder&’s daughter and scion of a renowned family of winemakers that goes back generations, is what makes Lanza&’s The Food of Sicily such a singular cookbook—not just a collection of recipes and techniques, but a vibrant and beautifully photographed profile of the land, the people, the history, and so much more. On every page, in every recipe and note, the author captures the distinct taste of Sicily. How the simplest antipasti, brightly seasoned with nothing but lemon or vinegar, open the appetite—like a classic Octopus Salad or dish of Sautéed Black Olives. The little fried somethings—like an arancine or panelle—are easy, welcome, and nourishing. The Fresh Cavatelli, Pasta with Eggplant and Tomatoes, Bucatini with Sardines and Wild Fennel, and the eye-opening Anelletti Timballo explain why Sicilians are the biggest pasta eaters in the world. Festive meat dishes—such as Lamb-Stuffed Pastry, an Easter staple, or Grilled Sausage with Bay Leaves and Onions—are festive because the moment it&’s holiday time, Sicilians everywhere head outside and fire up their grills. And for a people known for their passion for sweets, some famous Sicilian treats—Watermelon Pudding, Lemon Granita, Rolled Fig Cookies, and the pinnacle of desserts, the elaborate Sicilian Cake with Ricotta Cream and Marzipan. Along the way, the author delves into everything from cheese, couscous, and olives to Amaro and the importance of bitterness. Visitors to Sicily often sense it to be a place unlike anywhere else—lost in time and a little bit secretive. The Food of Sicily opens a bright window on it, celebrating this wonderful food culture while honoring everything that makes it special.Discover the many healing and culinary uses of the familiar wild plant, the dandelion, with this colorful, accessible guide from…
