Addison's Disease - NADF
Addison's Disease - NADF: all of the manifestations of Addison’s disease are caused by the lack of cortisol and aldosterone, the treatment is to replace these with similar steroids.
Cortisol is usually replaced orally by hydrocortisone or cortisone acetate, less often with prednisone tablets, divided into morning and afternoon doses.
Aldosterone is replaced by an aldosterone-like synthetic steroid, fludrocortisone (Florinef�) tablets given once daily.
The doses of each of these medications are adjusted for the individual’s size and any co-existing medical conditions.
In emergencies or during surgery, hydrocortisone must be given intravenously.

Land & Sea Tales - For Scouts and Guides - Rudyard Kipling
Land & Sea Tales - For Scouts and Guides - Rudyard Kipling: Land & Sea Tales - For Scouts and Guides
by
Rudyard Kipling
Preface
TO ALL to whom this little book may come—
����Health for yourselves and those you hold most dear!
Content abroad, and happiness at home,
����
And—one grand secret in your private ear:—
����
Nations have passed away and left no traces,
And History gives the naked cause of it—
����
One single, simple reason in all cases;
They fell because their peoples were not fit.

Articles: The Revenge of the Gods of the Copybook Headings: Kipling continues,
In the Carboniferous Epoch we were promised abundance for all,
By robbing selected Peter to pay for collective Paul;
But, though we had plenty of money, there was nothing our money could buy,
And the Gods of the Copybook Headings said: "If you don't work you die."
