Ministry of Health report on alcohol and alcohol-related problems
http://www.salute.gov.it/dettaglio/dettaglioNews.jsp?id=1355&tipo=new
In December 2010 the Minister of Health sent to the Presidents of the Chamber and Senate of the Seventh Report to Parliament on the operations carried out by Ministry on alcohol and Regions in accordance with Law No. 30.3.2001 125 "Framework law on alcohol and alcohol-related problems."
Data on alcohol consumption and consumption patterns confirm the gradual removal of our country from the traditional Mediterranean pattern of consumption.
E 'increased over the past decade the number of those who consume alcohol outside of meals, with a significant increase especially among women.
The binge drinking, how to drink northern European origin that involves the consumption of many units of alcohol in a short period of time covered in 2009, 12.4% of men and 3.1% of women and is now widespread habit permanently especially in the male population of 18-24 years (21,6,1%) and 25-44 years (17.4%).
Practice binge drinking is also a good percentage of women aged 18 to 24 years (7.9%) and among the young of 11-15 years it is more widespread than among boys.
In general, the consumer risk applies to the 15.8% of Italians over 11 years, for a total of nearly 8 million and a half people. Among them, about 475,000 children in particular (the 18.5% of boys and 15.5% of girls under 16 years), in which consumption should be equal to 0, and about 3 million seniors (44.7% of males el '11, 3% of females over 65) in which the consumer at risk coincides with the daily consumption mostly unmoderated, especially during meals.
The type of consumption prevalent among young people at risk is the consumption between meals, which in 2009 covered 34.4% of males and 22.8% of females aged between 11 and 25 years. Already
to 18-19 years, the share of consumers is close to the average population and the perceived availability of alcoholic beverages is one of the young Italians between the highest in Europe.
Almost half (45.4%) of hospital diagnosis for alcohol-related disease totally relates to those over 55 years, but some years the percentage of alcohol-related diagnoses is increasing in age group 36-55 years, while continuing to decline in age group 15-35 years.
The proportion of hospital diagnoses for alcoholic liver cirrhosis shows growth in recent years in relation to other alcohol-related diagnoses of hospitalization, rising between 2000 and 2008 from 26.30% to 35.00% of the total of such diagnosis. The
alcohol problems in treatment in public services are steadily increasing since 1996 and in 2008, about 66,548 were detected. Among them in particular the percentage of young people under the age of 30 represent 10.2% of the total, with a value in growth compared to the previous survey (10%), especially among new users.
It is still low compared to other European countries the dissemination of knowledge on the rate of legal blood alcohol limits for driving and consumption compatible with it. The
2.12% of all causes of traffic accidents recorded in 2008, for a total of 5,920 cases concerning the intoxication by alcohol, with a percentage increase over the previous year.
Despite the large proportion of the population exposed to a wide range of risks alcohol-related data of the report also highlights some positive trends in the evolution of some indicators of risk, both in relation to the younger population (decrease in consumption between meals among males aged 14-17 years, decreased the attitudes of tolerance to drunkenness among young people aged 15-19 years , a declining share of young students who get drunk) than to that of more than 65 years old (slight decrease in consumption at risk in both sexes).
also occur in steady decline in the national rate of mortality from liver cirrhosis and that of hospitalization for alcohol-related diseases completely, it is slightly declining in recent years the percentage of new users under the age of 20 in alcoholism treatment services; remains finally stopped in the spread among our youth, their peers in Europe, of consumers at risk, such as frequent consumption, binge drinking and drunkenness.

He will walk with his legs on the wine trade? MANIFESTO FOR SOCIAL ECOLOGICAL
Good news:
1 - is reducing the consumption of wine, but we know that the band of young adults will increase, and you need to lower prices, but not so low as to be profitable?
2 - from the European Union next year will disappear as support for the distillation must and we hope that you invest money in creative industries.
------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------
Focus on wine: a reduction in domestic consumption of Drafting TigullioVino . it
Reduction in domestic consumption, CMO reform, excessive fragmentation of Italian firms and too many names, which are unlikely to be defensible in Europe. These are the points raised by Confagricoltura in focus to the world of wine. "We urgently need a pricing policy to counter the decline in domestic consumption, up from 55 in 1995 to 40 liters per capita per year, below the 20 million hectoliters, with a market that is less profitable, even if the wine is the first entry of 'Italian food exports, with 3.5 billion euro. In addition, 24% of Italians have decreased consumption away from home and 7% has replaced the wine with lower alcohol content beverages. "
Talking about consumer crisis we think President of Confagricoltura, Federico Vecchioni, "the decline in domestic consumption worries producers even if offset by an upturn in foreign markets, which bodes well. For the next few years should take account of the aggression suffered by the domestic products in emerging markets, which are aimed at a much lower price ranges, with an average of 1.70 euro per liter. It is therefore necessary to redesign the supply chain - said Vecchioni - ground that has businesses (770,000 firms) and 504 names that are perhaps too many to be defended. Our products have been a real attack by emerging products with price points much lower.
we must rely su vini legati al territorio. Da qui la necessità - continua il presidente - di rimotivare i consumatori verso produzioni a significativo legame con il territorio, legando produzioni di qualità a una politica dei prezzi che va rivisitata. Occorre promuovere dunque un consumo consapevole del vino, ma anche sì a un consumo di prodotto caratterizzato dalla qualità”. Vecchioni fa il punto anche sul fronte dell’export guardando con sempre più interesse a Paesi emergenti, a cominciare dai Bric (Brasile, Russia, India e Cina) e poi da Indonesia, Messico, Sudafrica, dove i consumi stanno crescendo: “bisogna conquistare i nuovi consumatori sui quali lo stile Italia esercita un indubbio fascino, dal vino alla moda. La difficoltà access to public funds, or the structure of financing, failure to attain the goal to get to the wine-making companies key assets. Having a more satisfactory policy management is crucial in a context where government intervention is very important, especially in times of crisis in the industry. "
Confagricoltura analysis has highlighted the need for farms that have adequate size (the average size farm is less than one hectare for the Doc). He concluded the President of Confagricoltura: "we must create synergies, promote the formation of associations that too corporate. is strategic encourage efforts to grow and become stronger. "
The conference also addressed the issue of CMO reform: the stop was discussed from 2012 funds for those who use concentrated grape must, wine varieties and planting rights.
The debate also addressed the Head of Department of the Ministry of Agriculture, Mario Catania: "next year will disappear to must support and there is no room to reopen the negotiations in Brussels . Instead, there is room to reopen the negotiations on the system of planting rights. " One aspect of the reform of the common market that also addressed by Flack: "It has failed in full to enable investment to make innovation a driving force to enhance the production and encourage consumption. We are moving towards the elimination of support for the distillation and musts. A reflection on how to channel the resources needed. Certainly it is important to the enhancement of the product in foreign markets, but also on the inside with a clever promotion that tends to enhance the culture of wine and alcohol abuse. We ask - said the president of Confagricoltura - taken to an area so important that, in Italy, employs 1.2 million people, including 200,000 seasonal. "

on an alcohol-related problems AND COMPLEX
AICAT: Italian Association of Territorial
Alcohology Club (method Hudolin)
approach MANIFEST ECOLOGICAL AND COMPLEX SOCIAL PROBLEMS alcohol related
Why a Manifesto on an Ecological Social
In talk and discuss the way Social Ecology and
complex to alcohol-related problems are often given for granted what it really is in its identity and its purpose.
Even now rich literature on the method Hudolin has never bothered to
give an explicit definition of the EFSA, which allows you to specify an essential and meaningful thing then it be.
This finding has generated in recent times the need for EASA groped for a definition, especially in light of the ongoing debate about being and becoming of the method Hudolin. The multiple stresses in this direction have been spelled out and incorporated into AICAT Executive Council held in Rome October 16, 2010, when some friends who had raised the issue were invited to work for the preparation of a draft of a document then subjected to a critical reading of the Permanent Forum during the Formation of San Benedetto del Tronto and a subsequent approval of the directive.
The text is also published today is the result of that path, has no ambitions di essere esaustivo (si rimanda ad altri doverosi approfondimenti); può essere proposto alla stregua di una traccia di presentazione in ogni contesto di informazione, sensibilizzazione e confronto nella comunità, nell’assoluta consapevolezza della necessità di un suo perenne aggiornamento da effettuare con cadenza periodica, aperto al contributo di tutti e capace di essere in reale sintonia con l’evoluzione dell’AES medesimo.

L’Approccio Ecologico Sociale ai Problemi Alcolcorrelati e Complessi
Premessa
L’Approccio Ecologico Sociale è stato ideato ed applicato daI Prof. Vladimir Hudolin,
experiencing it effectively in tackling alcohol-related problems, from a perspective of health promotion based on an original path that moves from theoretical and practical principles of social psychiatry and community medicine in the late twentieth century and that can be applied to the specific changes all behavioral problems. The approach is consistent with the complex set of documents, resolutions, action plans, the WHO has produced since 1978 with the Alma Ata Declaration which establishes the centrality:
a. deII'assistenza primary
b. Labour territorial
c. programs of the local community,
d. of promotion of the citizens programs for the protection and promotion of health, in a collaborative relationship with the professional system (partnership in action) in the specific field of practice of the principles established by the ecological and social.
Approach, referring to the information in independent scientific research that supports the decisions and action plans deIl'OMS, aims to develop programs that are able to: •
to respond to the needs of the person, placed in the context meaningful relationships and type of family and community, families and local communities;
• to focus the leadership of the person and his sense of responsibility
(empowerment).
• sensibilizzare chi opera in campo professionale ad attuare scelte personali coerenti, adeguando gli stessi processi formativi professionali e le pratiche professionali a quanto definito dall’Approccio Ecologico Sociale.
Esso trova la sua collocazione teorica nella teoria generale dei sistemi e nel lavoro sociale di rete con i relativi modelli concettuali.
Si avvale dell’esperienza pratica dei programmi alcologici territoriali centrati sulla lunga e consolidata esperienza dei Club degli Alcolisti in Trattamento, oggi Club Alcologici Territoriali, che hanno superato il concetto di "alcolismo malattia", definendo l’alcolismo uno stile di vita, cioè un comportamento socialmente accettato, with the gradual downsizing of the meaning of the term "alcoholism" wholly inadequate and incomplete to describe the complexity of "alcohol problems", and now, the system of clubs eliminated in the terminology and practice The term "treatment" should be abandoned because The vivid and rehabilitative aspects of care that can be confusing
exceeded the same concept of alcoholism.
's why the social-ecological approach is its rightful place in
complex reality that has tried to build healthy public policies capable of: a.
ensure accessibility to basic services,
b. overcome all forms of stigma socially deviant behavior,
c. encourage the participation of citizens in the processes of self-protection and self-promotion of health,
d. to ensure that the relationship between citizens and the professional world is marked by the principle of cooperation and democracy in their decisions,
e. build and consolidate the processes of community participation and community development based on their internal resources.
These objectives are contained in the general documentation of the WHO:
1. Declaration of Alma Ata
2. Ottawa Charter
3. Adelaide Declaration
4. Jakarta Declaration
5. Health for all in 2000
6. Health in the 21st Century Health 21
7. Urban Health Project that the different resolutions
8. The two action plans on alcohol
9. The European Charter on with his ethics and the ten strategies - Paris Conference - December 1995
10. The Global Strategy on Alcohol
The scientific and humanistic
The thought and work of prof. Vladimir Hudolin express a synthesis of particular intensity and effectiveness, of the 900 great discoveries and advances that were emerging from from 800 and that today are an evolution and a continuity which in many ways Hudolin himself had widely anticipated. Its action
scientific and humanistic side of the field of psychiatry addressing the issue of human suffering trying to grasp the inner workings and relationships that are paramount, leaving the custodial role that marked the era of the asylum.
The pillars of this philosophy that are the backbone of social-ecological Approach are:
1. The findings of psychoanalysis and in particular its application to small and large groups of people to the development of the therapeutic community model
2. The social psychiatry: the social-ecological approach is founded on the principles of social psychiatry
trying to overcome the stigma of deviant behavior and the limits "tagging" of the classical diagnostic, giving rise to the experience therapeutic community, an effective tool to overcome the logic of the asylum. Hudolin elaborates further the concept of therapeutic community, and migrates into the mechanism of functioning of local communities to deal with alcohol-related problems.
3. The general systems theory.
Hudolin introduces the principles of general systems theory, highlighting the potential for accountability, and in overcoming the psychic and spiritual (or social culture) that is attributed to the dynamics of family and community. The genius of Hudolin action is to overcome any "mechanism" strategic-relational dimension to emphasize instead the emotional and spiritual (or social culture). Indicated by Hudolin systems are vital, feed on the emotional component that you build right in the relational process, never neglect the person, but it captures the changing expression in the changing relational contexts.
4. Cybernetics and ecology of the mind is an evolution of the previous paragraph that has been able to realize
Hudolin. He stressed the importance of building empathy
establishing unequivocally that every human being is in itself an autonomous
and at the same time belongs to a relational context. The context affects the relationship
through mutual interference processes that require constant mediation which lifetime in a perspective of growth and maturation. This interference has a level of mutual learning through transcendence, to truly hear each other, in themselves, in its irreducible diversity and originality.
5. The work of social network and its models. The ecological approach recognizes the concept of social network and in his study how more "green" for the knowledge of human communities and their balances; behind the problems of the community from alcohol-related ones, there is always an imbalance of their networks.
6. The family approach. The social-ecological approach considers the crucial involvement
the family and extended family networks. Family involvement does not imply any de-empowerment of each individual member of the family, nor is it intended to adhere to ideological visions that transform his family into a sort of icon of salvation, The family is a place of contradiction and resources.
7. The science of complexity. The social-ecological approach is an effective tool
reading of the phenomena that avoids all forms of fragmentation, but especially
indicates programs that move in the field of participation,
culture, transdisciplinarity and transcultural. Within the complex is presence should focus multiple cultures in local communities, and as a result of the globalization process, both as a form of generational subcultures.
8. The processes of participation. Hudolin its action rooted in local communities to which club they belong, even when they are in forms of association.
9. The antropospiritualità (or social culture).
scientific research, particularly that relating to the neurosciences or cognitive sciences, has tried to investigate the most mysterious and essential human dimension, the spirituality, as the set of cultural variables that impact significantly on our so of being and living.
10. Ethics.
The reference is to the individual and collective behavior, whether it's of choices generated by the necessity of everyday life, whether it's career choices.
In both cases, the ethical dimension requires you to define what the rules are
that are acceptable and which not, without any bias, but with the indication that it defines what are their points of reference. Moreover, the idea of \u200b\u200ban ethical code, which contains and exceeds the genetic code, puts the efforts to found the human society on the planet based on new socially shared values, particularly those of peace and rejection of war.
11. Transcendence.
It 's the ability to go beyond ourselves, beyond our ego, our need to grasp the membership of a higher order, whether natural, inter-human or divine. The recognition of the transcendent forces us to the question of belonging rather than of ownership.
12. Meditation.
E 'the willingness to listen and to resonate within us the speech of others, without judging, recognizing his reasons and so that our
also being accepted. It 'an attitude of peace and mediation
that does not change the essence and conditions of each individual, but makes them available to
box. It promotes personal growth and human relationships through openness to dialogue
13. Instruments. Post
the centrality of alcoholism Club Place, the methodology uses
instruments suitable for the execution of a program of alcohol related area - Social Ecological Approach - Method Hudolin, providing the necessary training sessions and awareness-raising and organizational model established by the Centre Spatial alcoholism functional.
Social Ecological Approach (AES) The meaning
approach means asking how to read, interpret a phenomenon and, consequently
, to promote change. Regarding lo specifico
campo alcologico l’approccio indicato da Hudolin deve essere collocato nelle strategie di popolazione che sono caratterizzate dall’evidenza scientifica che per ridurre l’incidenza e la prevalenza delle problematiche alcol correlate è necessario modificare, riducendolo, il consumo medio della popolazione. Questo ha come suo presupposto una disponibilità di avviare programmi che modifichino la cultura generale, sanitaria e sociale nei confronti delle bevande alcoliche, caratterizzata oggi:
a. da una tendenza a promuovere i consumi definiti "responsabili" o moderati,
b. dal distinguere in modo netto i bevitori dagli alcolisti o alcol dipendenti, applicando un modello fortemente medicalizzato which focuses on particular aspects of alcohol-related problems;
c. from pursuing the model of social learning as the main way for people to get used to the familiar, from an early age, alcoholic beverages and avoid those that are defined and excesses that are substantiated in security issues and public policy;
d. dall'enfatizzare the Mediterranean model of drinking considered protective with respect to the possible occurrence of more serious alcohol-related problems.
Social Ecological Approach acknowledges in accordance with the WHO:
1. the dangers of alcohol itself,
2. his being a drug particularly harmful to the individual, family and society
,
3. that there are levels of consumption which might be considered risk-free,
4. that it must guarantee people the real and concrete possibility to choose between drinking alcoholic beverages or abstain, as a right that every citizen has to act, independently, according to his beliefs after the correct information.
The ecological approach establishes that everyone should think about their drinking,
regardless of the amount consumed by consumption styles and the degree of expressed
problematic, thereby avoiding the invitation to reflect on drinking and rivolto solo a chi è ritenuto più problematico, forma evidente di categorizzazione discriminante e di stigma. Il consumo di bevande alcoliche deve essere considerato un fattore di rischio che, sul piano individuale, ciascuno ha la possibilità e la libertà di assumere. Si reputa comunque necessario che la comunità si doti di misure e regole finalizzate al bene comune nei confronti dei danni prodotti dal consumo di bevande alcoliche (bere passivo). Per quest'ultima ragione promuove e sostiene tutte le iniziative di politiche pubbliche per la salute finalizzate a:
a. a ridurre la disponibilità degli alcolici, con ragionevoli e motivate argomentazioni, in particolare per i giovani e per le categorie più a rischio
b. to promote lifestyles more protective of public welfare. The term Ecological
recognize the links between people and between
different components that make up a family or local community. It is recognized
also a relationship between alcohol consumption and problematic consumption of improperly expressed as defined normal and abnormal, thereby accepting that there can be no discontinuity categorical, but an ongoing process that characterizes the behavior of drinking.
Ecology indicated by Hudolin has nothing to do with environmentalism, but
deals with the functioning of human beings is the way they stand on the floor relations is their way of seeing and thinking about the world. The Social Ecological Approach
stringency has in itself the necessity of overcoming the constant
acquired positions, well represented at the level of concreteness
the multiplication constant of the Club and its associated forms, as well as from
constant adaptation to cultural and social occurring. Social
The term emphasizes the evidence that all behavior problems, including alcohol-related, but also cultural, economic and political rights, have their origins and their resolution in existing social relations. It also emphasizes the value of the social contract that founds the human community and that is from the construction of a shared code of ethics.
is often perceived and cited the Beauty (Aesthetics) club, which is the product of continuous attention to ethics, without which there can be no process of socialization with the characteristics of love, friendship, solidarity, respect for diversity and transcultural.
These are the founding principles of the Social Ecological Approach and the choice of continuing growth and maturation size in a harmonious also capable of changing the culture of the community.
Ethics is the evolutionary process ontogenetico, filogenetico e storico-culturale che si è strutturato nella nostra coscienza e ci fa scegliere tra ciò che riteniamo pensabile e giusto agire e ciò che riteniamo né pensabile, né giusto.
L’abito di ciascuno, il suo ethos, il suo stile di vita, l’insieme delle sue tensioni ideali, rappresenta la libertà e la responsabilità di ciascuno. L’etica, ciò che agli altri dobbiamo, deve essere condizione e vincolo per la libera scelta dell’ethos e deve rappresentare la consapevolezza del proprio dovere nei confronti degli altri.
La sottolineatura del sociale contenuta nell’Approccio Ecologico Sociale, non è una
contrapposizione disciplinare nei confronti of health, but the recovery of the Community dimension of the persons who constitute the "Societas", the evolved form of coexistence in which the conflict is not restricted or denied, but is welcomed into the relational dynamics. In this sense, the health and systems are integral to the development of a given society.
The office is also the root of membership of the Club to the community, the objective of building, from the Club Alcohology Territorial local alcoholism programs, aimed at changing the existing culture and dominant and provide a space for reflection, thought and therefore for growth and maturation to those who, throughout their life, are directly or indirectly to reflect on the relationship with alcohol.
In summary, the social-ecological approach is therefore the framework within which to apply the method Hudolin establishing the centrality of his action in size antropospirituale (or socio-cultural), understood as a multidimensional reading of the human in its complexity and in his inexhaustible network of relationships. It 's a mobile frame, dynamic, full of nuances, not comparable to the classical forms of professionalization, medicalization or psychiatrization, but able to communicate and interact for better coping with these alcohol-related problems.

The genius of Hudolin action is to overcome any "mechanism" strategic-relational dimension to emphasize instead the emotional and spiritual (or social culture). Indicated by Hudolin systems are vital, feed on the emotional component that you build right in the relational process, never neglect the person, but it captures the changing expression in the changing relational contexts.
4. Cybernetics and ecology of the mind is an evolution of the previous paragraph that has been able to realize
Hudolin. He stressed the importance of building empathy
establishing unequivocally that every human being is in itself an autonomous
and at the same time belongs to a relational context. The context affects the relationship
through mutual interference processes that require constant mediation which lifetime in a perspective of growth and maturation. This interference has a level of mutual learning through transcendence, to truly hear each other, in themselves, in its irreducible diversity and originality.
5. The work of social network and its models. The ecological approach recognizes the concept of social network and in his study how more "green" for the knowledge of human communities and their balances; behind the problems of the community from alcohol-related ones, there is always an imbalance of their networks.
6. The family approach. The social-ecological approach considers the crucial involvement
the family and extended family networks. Family involvement does not imply any de-empowerment of each individual member of the family, nor is it intended to adhere to ideological visions that transform his family into a sort of icon of salvation, The family is a place of contradiction and resources.
7. The science of complexity. The social-ecological approach is an effective tool
reading of the phenomena that avoids all forms of fragmentation, but especially
indicates programs that move in the field of participation,
culture, transdisciplinarity and transcultural. Within the complex is presence should focus multiple cultures in local communities, and as a result of the globalization process, both as a form of generational subcultures.
8. The processes of participation. Hudolin its action rooted in local communities to which club they belong, even when they are in forms of association.
9. The antropospiritualità (or social culture).
scientific research, particularly that relating to the neurosciences or cognitive sciences, has tried to investigate the most mysterious and essential human dimension, the spirituality, as the set of cultural variables that impact significantly on our so of being and living.
10. Ethics.
The reference is to the individual and collective behavior, whether it's of choices generated by the necessity of everyday life, whether it's career choices.
In both cases, the ethical dimension requires you to define what the rules are
that are acceptable and which not, without any bias, but with the indication that it defines what are their points of reference. Moreover, the idea of \u200b\u200ban ethical code, which contains and exceeds the genetic code, puts the efforts to found the human society on the planet based on new socially shared values, particularly those of peace and rejection of war.
11. Transcendence.
It 's the ability to go beyond ourselves, beyond our ego, our need to grasp the membership of a higher order, whether natural, inter-human or divine. The recognition of the transcendent forces us to the question of belonging rather than of ownership.
12. Meditation.
E 'the willingness to listen and to resonate within us the speech of others, without judging, recognizing his reasons and so that our
also being accepted. It 'an attitude of peace and mediation
that does not change the essence and conditions of each individual, but makes them available to
box. It promotes personal growth and human relationships through openness to dialogue
13. Instruments. Post
the centrality of alcoholism Club Place, the methodology uses
instruments suitable for the execution of a program of alcohol related area - Social Ecological Approach - Method Hudolin, providing the necessary training sessions and awareness-raising and organizational model established by the Centre Spatial alcoholism functional.
Social Ecological Approach (AES) The meaning
approach means asking how to read, interpret a phenomenon and, consequently
, to promote change. Regarding lo specifico
campo alcologico l’approccio indicato da Hudolin deve essere collocato nelle strategie di popolazione che sono caratterizzate dall’evidenza scientifica che per ridurre l’incidenza e la prevalenza delle problematiche alcol correlate è necessario modificare, riducendolo, il consumo medio della popolazione. Questo ha come suo presupposto una disponibilità di avviare programmi che modifichino la cultura generale, sanitaria e sociale nei confronti delle bevande alcoliche, caratterizzata oggi:
a. da una tendenza a promuovere i consumi definiti "responsabili" o moderati,
b. dal distinguere in modo netto i bevitori dagli alcolisti o alcol dipendenti, applicando un modello fortemente medicalizzato which focuses on particular aspects of alcohol-related problems;
c. from pursuing the model of social learning as the main way for people to get used to the familiar, from an early age, alcoholic beverages and avoid those that are defined and excesses that are substantiated in security issues and public policy;
d. dall'enfatizzare the Mediterranean model of drinking considered protective with respect to the possible occurrence of more serious alcohol-related problems.
Social Ecological Approach acknowledges in accordance with the WHO:
1. the dangers of alcohol itself,
2. his being a drug particularly harmful to the individual, family and society
,
3. that there are levels of consumption which might be considered risk-free,
4. that it must guarantee people the real and concrete possibility to choose between drinking alcoholic beverages or abstain, as a right that every citizen has to act, independently, according to his beliefs after the correct information.
The ecological approach establishes that everyone should think about their drinking,
regardless of the amount consumed by consumption styles and the degree of expressed
problematic, thereby avoiding the invitation to reflect on drinking and rivolto solo a chi è ritenuto più problematico, forma evidente di categorizzazione discriminante e di stigma. Il consumo di bevande alcoliche deve essere considerato un fattore di rischio che, sul piano individuale, ciascuno ha la possibilità e la libertà di assumere. Si reputa comunque necessario che la comunità si doti di misure e regole finalizzate al bene comune nei confronti dei danni prodotti dal consumo di bevande alcoliche (bere passivo). Per quest'ultima ragione promuove e sostiene tutte le iniziative di politiche pubbliche per la salute finalizzate a:
a. a ridurre la disponibilità degli alcolici, con ragionevoli e motivate argomentazioni, in particolare per i giovani e per le categorie più a rischio
b. to promote lifestyles more protective of public welfare. The term Ecological
recognize the links between people and between
different components that make up a family or local community. It is recognized
also a relationship between alcohol consumption and problematic consumption of improperly expressed as defined normal and abnormal, thereby accepting that there can be no discontinuity categorical, but an ongoing process that characterizes the behavior of drinking.
Ecology indicated by Hudolin has nothing to do with environmentalism, but
deals with the functioning of human beings is the way they stand on the floor relations is their way of seeing and thinking about the world. The Social Ecological Approach
stringency has in itself the necessity of overcoming the constant
acquired positions, well represented at the level of concreteness
the multiplication constant of the Club and its associated forms, as well as from
constant adaptation to cultural and social occurring. Social
The term emphasizes the evidence that all behavior problems, including alcohol-related, but also cultural, economic and political rights, have their origins and their resolution in existing social relations. It also emphasizes the value of the social contract that founds the human community and that is from the construction of a shared code of ethics.
is often perceived and cited the Beauty (Aesthetics) club, which is the product of continuous attention to ethics, without which there can be no process of socialization with the characteristics of love, friendship, solidarity, respect for diversity and transcultural.
These are the founding principles of the Social Ecological Approach and the choice of continuing growth and maturation size in a harmonious also capable of changing the culture of the community.
Ethics is the evolutionary process ontogenetico, filogenetico e storico-culturale che si è strutturato nella nostra coscienza e ci fa scegliere tra ciò che riteniamo pensabile e giusto agire e ciò che riteniamo né pensabile, né giusto.
L’abito di ciascuno, il suo ethos, il suo stile di vita, l’insieme delle sue tensioni ideali, rappresenta la libertà e la responsabilità di ciascuno. L’etica, ciò che agli altri dobbiamo, deve essere condizione e vincolo per la libera scelta dell’ethos e deve rappresentare la consapevolezza del proprio dovere nei confronti degli altri.
La sottolineatura del sociale contenuta nell’Approccio Ecologico Sociale, non è una
contrapposizione disciplinare nei confronti of health, but the recovery of the Community dimension of the persons who constitute the "Societas", the evolved form of coexistence in which the conflict is not restricted or denied, but is welcomed into the relational dynamics. In this sense, the health and systems are integral to the development of a given society.
The office is also the root of membership of the Club to the community, the objective of building, from the Club Alcohology Territorial local alcoholism programs, aimed at changing the existing culture and dominant and provide a space for reflection, thought and therefore for growth and maturation to those who, throughout their life, are directly or indirectly to reflect on the relationship with alcohol.
In summary, the social-ecological approach is therefore the framework within which to apply the method Hudolin establishing the centrality of his action in size antropospirituale (or socio-cultural), understood as a multidimensional reading of the human in its complexity and in his inexhaustible network of relationships. It 's a mobile frame, dynamic, full of nuances, not comparable to the classical forms of professionalization, medicalization or psychiatrization, but able to communicate and interact for better coping with these alcohol-related problems.

Outox: anti-hangover drink?
We carry two articles about the product "Outox" which is being touted and sold on the internet and clubs pushing young people to drink more and more ... with the illusion that we can reverse the effects of alcohol with this drink. The bad publicity and misleading always strikes periodically and intends making even more euphoric people who use it, the worse their physical and psychological conditions and risking their safety and that of others.
reflect people and propaganda by word and example, a sober lifestyle, which gives meaning to life and not throw it away!
Outox: anti-hangover drink? The expert's opinion
Medicine live - Cynthia Iannacci
last few days in France was authorized to sell a drink called anti-hangover, both in bars and in restaurants. It's called Outox, and is made of fructose and ascorbic acid. The producers swear that possesses exceptional ability: be able to decisively reduce the alcohol level in the blood, eliminating not only the risk of license suspension, but also the related disorders such as nausea and headache.
in France is obviously a brawl broke out. A drink like that if it worked would be one of the greatest scientific discoveries of the century! But it does not create an incentive to drink more? And the human body, how to react? In short: it does not convinced me and trying to go into that I discovered that this is not a new thing: curiosity and had already sparked controversy in 2005 in Italy, where the company that had been heavily fined for misleading advertising.
To understand this better I turned to the greatest Italian expert on alcoholism: Prof. Emanuele Scafati, Director of the National Alcohol-CNESPS ISS, the International Centre for Research on Alcohol Health Organization and President of Italian Society of Algology.
Professor in recent days, is in Brussels for the European Conference on Alcohol, where he was raised the alarm on young people already complained at Alcohol Prevention Day which was held in Rome last April 29.
An alarm of concern precisely because of the many marketing activities that are proposed to confuse young people about products in one way or another, may endanger the health and safety: they are alcoholic beverages and soft drinks to avoid miraculous the influence of alcohol.
But here's what I told the prof. Scafato :
This anti-hangover drink: it is a miracle?
"There is no scientific evidence about why the caution is imperative especially for young people"
But there are substances that can quickly lower the rate of alcohol in the blood allowing the person who starts driving dell'etilometro pass the test? Some packs of beer were sold with a mini-test for free! An antidote to traffic accidents?
"It would be nice but it is not and there is no scientific evidence or publications in which to find such information. There are many drinks, some herbal, others, such as those marketed in France containing fructose and ascorbic acid.
For these and other products like the EFSA, the European Agency for Food Safety conduct an evaluation of that rite now missing for the drink we're talking about.
And that's why Secretary of State for Trade francese ha chiesto la messa in mora della società che commercializza la bevanda, in modo che si conformi alle normative comunitarie e non commercializzi questo prodotto fino a quando non saranno stati fatti i necessari accertamenti.
Nel frattempo bisogna fare attenzione perché i giovani potrebbero essere indotti a ritenere di poter contrastare lo stato di ebbrezza e confidare erroneamente in una condizione psico-fisica di idoneità alla guida con esiti che potrebbero anche risultare tragici o comunque pregiudiziali per la salute e la sicurezza individuale e collettiva”.
In Francia, come in Italia l’abuso di alcol è al primo posto tra le cause di incidenti stradali mortali.
“E’ peraltro singolare-prosegue l’esperto- that a first version of the drink is already marketed as an effective worldwide, including Italy, by a Belgian company that sold its license to an international company that claims to have changed the composition of the product, one wonders to what end if the same had already been touted as effective. " But how do you
valutatare scientifically the effectiveness of a product such as that marketed?
"Scientifically we can make this claim only when we proceed in an objective way to examine a sample of individuals according to strict pre-experimental mode, for example, administered to 100 individuals well-known quantity of alcohol and this consecutively drink, checking the blood alcohol in a standardized way. "
Why do these drinks are removed and then put on the market?
"It is not dangerous in themselves. This does not mean that they have the ability or the effect is indeed propaganda and we must always maintain a high level of attention to the risk of misleading advertising. In short, a rule of common sense is always to drink in moderation and never when you expose yourself or others at risk, such as driving. "
Searching online I found many people who wanted to know how to obtain a Outox. Scafato helped us to understand that it is not smart to believe everything we propinano. Try
if you like, maybe it is also good and refreshing, but do not abuse alcohol, believing that the product can help you. What certainty do you have? Advertising? Reflect and to celebrate the maturity .... take a swim in the sea at night sober. I remember better in the future.

antisbornia Beverages, Altroconsumo launches hazard warning
03/02/2011 - 14:52
are sold via the Internet and in clubs with the promise to pass quickly the hangover. These drinks antisbornia: are spreading among young Italians as an antidote to the excesses of Saturday night, although experts say that are ineffective. A few days ago Nas police have seized twenty thousand boxes, imported from France and Switzerland because they are considered "non-compliant," according to the rules of food supplements.
to raise attention to this dangerous new phenomenon, born in France, Altroconsumo emphasizing that there is no truth to what is written on the packaging of these beverages: the French agency for food, the Health and Safety at Work has already issued its opinion in July 2010 holding that these claims scientifically unfounded and therefore unacceptable. And experts do not leave room for doubt: "there are drinks that can boast an anti hangover, because there are substances capable of accelerating the phenomenon for the disposal of alcohol in the blood. "
But what is the real danger? These drinks, composition harmless, are dangerous because they create a false sense of security and are likely to lead to uncontrolled consumption of alcohol, especially before driving . Typically, these drinks are made from water, fructose, acidulants (eg citric acid), antioxidants (vitamin C) and various extracts of herbs and plants such as lemon balm, licorice, artichoke.
Some of these products also have pages on social network in which extolled the miraculous effects that affect their dangerousness:
• Rebootizer, for example, "stimulates the body, helping to eliminate excess food and alcohol. It is also a cocktail against a hangover, your companion after night raids after the evening party, after an evening where you have taken any of Alcoa ... "
• Equi states on its website to be able to "eliminate alcohol and overeating," specifying that "the main action takes place for ethanol but also for many other toxic and / or food not very digestible."
• Outox even be defined as "an accelerated reduction alcohol, acting in our body helping to eliminate alcohol more rapidly, helping to rapidly reduce the discomforts typical of drunkenness, the feeling of nausea, the spinning head and then, a few hours later, the headaches, tiredness and listlessness.
to know what they say the labels of these products, bought online Altroconsumo 2 drinks: Feel better and Security Outox. The first is defined as a digestive drink alcohol-free plant-based, which "facilitates the digestion of food and drink." The promise of this digester on the packaging is attractive: "in less than an hour you will feel better." Contrary to what is advertised on site, there is no reference to any action antisbornia label, but only apparently. it appears next to the name in English is a claim that refers precisely to this action: "no hangover" ... maybe write in another language you have less feeling of being misleading, since there is no sound scientific studies to support the statement?
The second Outox has many signs in French, but the claim is clear: "the acceleration baisse naturelle et du taux d'alcohol previent lendemains les difficiles", adding however that the effect varies according to individuals, their weight, age, sex, health status, and from day to day. In 2005, the Competition Authority and the Market, take the advice of the Institute of Health and the National Research Institute for Food and Nutrition, the manufacturer had sanctioned its judging deceptive messages about the vaunted ability to dispose of the alcohol. Even the EFSA, the European Food Safety Authority is currently assessing the veracity of these statements.
