PRAESIIDIUM

🗓 April 19th is World Liver Day and the 2025 theme is #FoodIsMedicine 🥦💚 We're proud to join the global campaign to raise awareness about the power of nutrition in protecting liver health. 🍽 A balanced diet isn’t just good for your body — it supports liver function, reduces the risk of metabolic diseases, and can even help reverse damage. Every bite you take, every sip you choose — it all matters. Fuel your body. Empower your liver. 🌱💪 #LiverHealth #NutritionMatters #EatWellLiveWell 🗓 Il 19 aprile è la #GiornataMondialeDelFegato e il tema del 2025 è #IlCiboÈMedicina 🥦💚 Siamo felici di unirci alla campagna globale per promuovere il ruolo fondamentale della nutrizione nella salute del fegato. 🍽 Una dieta equilibrata non fa bene solo al corpo: supporta la funzionalità epatica, riduce il rischio di malattie metaboliche e può persino aiutare a invertire i danni. Ogni boccone che scegli, ogni sorso che fai — conta davvero. Nutri il tuo corpo. Dai forza al tuo fegato. 🌱💪 #SaluteDelFegato #MangiarSano #ViviSano #Nutrizione

Today, we had "shadows" at our lab at the University of Latvia Faculty of Medicine and Life Sciences! Schoolchildren from 7th-11th grade had the opportunity to familiarize themselves with the routine day of the clinical researcher. After a short introduction about clinical research, students could learn how to perform clinical measurements, process biological samples, collect nutrition data, and more! We utilize these skills daily for working in the PRAESIIDIUM project and other activities. Thank you for hosting the shadows together with me, Aleksejs Fedulovs, Sofija Ivanova and Irena Puzirevska!

🌱 March is Nutrition Month! 🌱 No matter your age, good nutrition is the foundation of a healthy life 💚 . That’s why it’s essential to fuel ourselves with a balanced mix of vegetables, fruits, grains, dairy, and proteins. #NutritionMonth #HealthyEating #Wellness #FoodConnectUs

March 8th - International Women's Day Imagine a gender-equal world. 🌍✨ A world free of bias, stereotypes, and discrimination. A world that is diverse, equitable, and inclusive. A world where differences are valued and celebrated. Together, we can forge gender equality. 💜✊ For #IWD2025, let’s all #AccelerateAction and create lasting change! International Women's Day has been around for over a century, yet many challenges remain. Since 1911, IWD has belonged to everyone who cares about women's equality. 45% of PRAESIIDIUM members are incredible women collaborating with our team to tackle #Diabetes, which is linked to Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (#PCOS)—a common hormonal condition affecting women of reproductive age. Join us to: 💜 Celebrate women’s achievements. 📢 Raise awareness about discrimination. ⚡ Take action to forge gender parity. Every action counts—because IWD is for everyone.

🚦🏥 March 4th - World Obesity Day Every year, 43 million adults lose their lives to non-communicable diseases (NCDs) such as #diabetes, heart disease, and cancer. Yet, despite its major role in driving NCDs, obesity remains overlooked, underfunded, and misunderstood. 🔹 Over 3.5 million deaths annually are linked to high BMI. 🔹 Obesity significantly increases the risk of type 2 #diabetes, heart disease, stroke, and certain cancers. 🔹 It also contributes to liver and kidney diseases, musculoskeletal disorders, and mental health challenges. This #WorldObesityDay, PRAESIIDIUM team stands with the global call for governments, healthcare providers, and communities to make obesity prevention and management a core pillar of NCD strategies. It’s time to prioritize action and drive lasting change! 💙💪 By addressing the systems that drive obesity, we can reduce the global burden of NCDs, save lives, and build a healthier future for all. #NCDs #ObesityAwareness #HealthForAll #PublicHealth #PreventiveCare #Praesiidium Project 👉 Watch now: https://lnkd.in/g3Guujm5 ➡️ Visit this great website: www.worldobesityday.org Italian Liver Foundation NPO, Spindox Labs, CNR-IEIIT, EDI - Institute of Electronics and Computer Science, Scuola di Robotica, IDSIA USI-SUPSI, CNR Institute for applied mathematics "Mauro Picone" (IAC), Latvijas Universitate, Euronet Consulting, Medizinische Universität Graz, CheckHealth Sweden, HK3 Lab Cesare Furlanello
