Confused About Malaria Tests? Here's a Simple Breakdown

“Just get tested.” But which one? If you’ve ever had to get checked for malaria—or worried about someone else—you’ve probably heard of a “malaria test.” But there’s actually more than one, and each has its own purpose. 🦟

I found this helpful malaria test guide that breaks it down in plain English (no lab degree needed). 🙌

🩸 Main diagnostic tests for malaria:

1️⃣ Microscopy (Blood Smear):

Traditional & widely used

Requires skilled lab technicians

Best for identifying parasite species

2️⃣ Rapid Diagnostic Tests (RDTs):

Quick results in 15–20 mins

Detects malaria-specific antigens

Portable and used in rural areas

3️⃣ PCR Tests:

Detects malaria DNA

Highly sensitive

Not widely available but great for confirmation

4️⃣ Serological Tests:

Not for active infections—shows past exposure

💡 Pro tip: If you or someone you know is in a high-risk area and showing symptoms like chills, fever, or fatigue—don’t delay testing.

Health Literacy Among Children With Special Health Care Needs

Children with special health care needs (CSHCN) often require more services than other children their age, and this can be expensive. To better understand how parental health literacy affects the care of CSHCN, a research team conducted a review of 13 studies from 1998 to 2014.  further assessment of the relationship between health literacy and health care utilization and cost, and (4) assessment of parental/caregiver health literacy in the inpatient care setting.

RESPONSE: BLOG Response: Blog Susan V Susan offers a concise definition of health literacy and indicates it is of great relevance in efforts to ensure that patients engage or take part in wellness activities. Susan also correctly indicates that health literacy is often instrumental in seeking to further enhance overall patient outcomes. It should be noted that as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention CDC (2022) indicates, health literacy could also be conceptualized in terms of personal health literacy and organizational health literacy. Whereas the former is concerned with individual health-information seeking and comprehension behavior, the latter has got to do with the extent to which organizations ease access to information (as well as comprehension of the same) meant to promote health literacy among individuals. My colleague has also restated the relevance of HIT on patient outcomes, as well as Health Economics. I am in agreement with Susans observation that health literacy has indeed increased during the COVID-19 pandemic. This is an assertion further advanced by Molnar (2021) who make an observation to the effect that information-seeking behavior (specifically online) has been on an upward trend. Danielle Harris From the onset, it should be noted that my colleagues observation to the effect that health literacy is high among minority populations and older adults is not necessarily accurate. This is more so the case given that as the Health Resources and Service Administration HRSA (2019) indicates, these happen to be groups with the lowest health literacy. More specifically, in the words of HRSA (2019), low health literacy is more prevalent among: older adults, minority populations, those who have low socioeconomic status, and medically underserved people. It therefore follows that there is need to further enhance health literacy across these populations. This is a position restated by my colleague. Harris has also indicated that health literacy has increased during the COVID-19 pandemic. An observation has also been made to the effect that HIT was instrumental in efforts to rein in the disease. As Prescott and Prescott (2021) indicate, HIT has been particularly instrumental in the provision of epidemiology and treatment updates, and telehealth services. References CDC (2022).

📌 Explore more: Diabetes and Honey – HealthOK Global

Okay, Tumblr fam — let’s clear this up 🍯💉

If you or a loved one is diabetic, chances are you’ve wondered: Can I have honey instead of sugar? Is it better for me?

Here’s the truth bomb:

Honey does have a lower glycemic index than refined sugar.

But it’s still a simple sugar, and moderation is key.

Natural? Yes. Harmless? Not necessarily.

This blog from HealthOK Global dives deep into the science, not just the hype:

Breakdown of glucose vs. fructose content.

How honey affects insulin resistance.

When (and if) it’s okay to substitute.

TL;DR – If you’re diabetic, honey can be a better alternative in controlled quantities — especially raw, organic honey. But it's not a free pass to drizzle it on everything. 🐝

The center to repair and rejuvenate is not the brain, but the ENS (Enteric Nervous System) and the HEART our Emotional Brain, producing impulses capable to influence other body systems through the SLEEP. Although the BODY`S REPAIR functions are primarily active during sleep, our body is constantly preparing itself for rejuvenation throughout the day. This includes engaging in activities such as fasting, managing stress, controlling free radicals, maintaining emotional coherence, and caring for our microbiome. In our upcoming book, we will explore these topics through the lens of standard biophysics and the potential role of quantum mechanics in our biological systems.
