and healthy life it is very interesting to see what the men in studio did when they were young so they wouldn't smoke so my advice is critz smoking eat healthy foods mostly plants and you should have a lot of exercise and if you follow these things. you do a lot to to have the full potential of your own personal life expectancy in one of the cover stories of the most famous magazine here in germany you claimed that men who live in the family and take care of the family live a longer and healthier life but isn't this just boring at least then you could say it's boring for a longer time so have more boring days but i think also on the same time you have more days full of happiness because if men livin in healthy and good relationships they have less accidents they take less drugs

they have better foods. they're not that stupid and so i think the result of that and the repercussion is that you live a longer life thanks very much for this very interesting talk or pleasure the field of medicine is a man's world most clinics i managed by men hairpiece i researched on men guidelines for therapies written by men and even in experiments that are most over male that's got to change i share this opinion with get old stuff she says research . her topic gender medicine. clear imbalance jeffrey t. hospital research is a looking into how men and women deal differently with their health and sickness. today the team are discussing the results of a new survey it shows the differences in our approach to health matters are also evident in the new coronavirus era in science the same goes for women seem more

willing to comply with safety measures one voluntary but men only when they're mandatory so it's another example of gender disparity. the team is headed by gad told to. profess if a gender sensitive prevention research have particular focus is on how men and women can prevent age related conditions i can be city in diabetes and how doctors can best support them in their efforts. to look at the smother the point is for people to eat healthier get more exercise reduce their tobacco and alcohol consumption and then live longer and healthier and with a decent quality of life. but there are significant differences between the sexes women tend to know more about what they're eating and have healthier diet men generally know more about exercise and do more sports those insights can help improve self-help options such as for losing weight.

women are ok with group activities such as those offered commercially but men not so much. they're more receptive to an option. so tailoring things to what men and women need will hopefully increase people's interest in the measures and mean a better chance of success. or. a further issues dealing with serious diseases such as cancer something women will talk about with their friends men on the other hand tend to confide in their wives partner says. while and after their ill man ask what they can do for themselves by changing their lifestyle and with man in particular it's not a window of opportunity. doctors can use it to provide recommendations or talk
2:49 pm
about issues it's a big opportunity for the manager. of course if after say being diagnosed with prostate cancer they can change all kinds of things having a healthier diet doing more exercise and reducing stress. on. another example is involuntary childlessness. considerable research into women improving their fertility by losing weight but precious little men can do. that in fact this one sided focus on women is harmful to both sexes. there is simply not enough research into ways of boosting male fertility. we want to improve that situation by examining both partners men and women in. research into gender specific characteristics however it's only one part of the
2:50 pm
picture even among women there are major differences in that health. as there are among men everyone is different so ideally we would have medical treatment customized to each and every one of us. that's. ultimately we want to use this male female dichotomy to gain a better understanding of how patients differ. so not just differences between men and women but also within those groups in their behavior and in their strategies for coping. and in what they really need to deal with their illness. so general research is merely a 1st step along the way towards personalized medicine. also medications work differently depending on the patient's gender active
2:51 pm
ingredients are being absorbed in different rates women often have more body fat men often taller and that's very important for the dosage however too little attention is paid to these differences and this might be quite dangerous professor very. sick knows the disparate effect of medication on men and women is largely overlooked and under researched one reason is the way in which trial studies are configured by not such an inlet sniff anything over the last 50 years there's been efforts to avoid including women in truck trials. due to evidence of damage caused to be empanelled during pregnancy. and we see that especially in the early phases of drug development no tests are conducted on healthy volunteers and they're overwhelmingly young man human men are and that remains a major problem some forms of medication have a different effect on men and women. there are
2:52 pm
a number of reasons for that. the 1st factor is that the time needed to digest the pill varies according to the patient's sex. secondly enzymes are key to the effect of a drug because they release an active ingredients men and women can have different quantities of enzymes so the ratio of the doses ingredients that actually enter the bloodstream also varies according to our sex. 3rd women tend to. have a larger proportion of fat and are generally smaller as well as a result the active ingredient is distributed differently in the tissue consequently women are more likely to suffer on wanted side effects test and thus card we're currently testing this with commonly prescribed drugs and believe we have sound data suggesting that women need different target doses we need to change
2:53 pm
the strategy to test medication on all groups among the population they're intended for. these not of course that includes women and the elderly who account for a major part of consumption engine. which is why professor. and her team are working on a study its aim is to determine whether illnesses themselves develop differently in women and men and what that means for their respective treatment. here boy in this and they want to know which medication older people need which doses their degree of tolerance. and of course they also want to know the effect of that medication on the heart and circulation and other functions in the body or and under or from thrown them culpable in forcing. previous studies have already shown
2:54 pm
that some heart medication shortens women's lives those of men this new study covers more than just physical examinations participants also answer range of questions about their daily routines the aim here is to determine any differences in the might styles of men and women. took time to. give what i find interesting is having the results afterwards which gives me a better assessment of myself so. soft i can see what condition. i'm in relative to my age both physically and mentally. so when corporates new measurement procedures this blood pressure test for example delivers far more data than would be the case at the general practitioners it also takes into account that order was become stiffer with old age without that factor
2:55 pm
there's a danger of the chest returning and incorrectly high blood pressure the study participants are already appreciating the benefits of i expect to find out more about myself and hopefully this will also help other people the researchers might have discovered something that wasn't previously known. sometimes it's the small things that can make a big difference. in many cases an additional node in the patient information leaflet would help to address specific differences when dosing medication. so many differences in terms of both effective doses and side effects so i'd say that information should always be included. there are good reasons for considering the differences between women and men when it comes to medication. the bias towards men still leads to
