Abstract

In a motivating article, published in the Cuban Journal of Comprehensive General Medicine, Professor Klaus Thielmann (thielmannk@qu14.eu), pointed out the advantages that developing a medicine with a holistic and sanocentric approach has on health and the economy. The medicine that we know has been characterized by the preponderance of the “pathocentric” approach. In this sense, it is oriented more towards curing the disease and to a certain extent its prevention than towards promoting health.1

For years now, people began to think more and more strongly about a medicine that has a holistic and sanocentric approach without underestimating the need and the development that has been achieved in the diagnosis, prevention and cure of diseases. For this medical philosophy, the mechanisms through which diseases develop, or what must be done to cure or prevent them, do not constitute its main interests, but rather takes into consideration the human being as a whole and in its interaction with the environment, wondering what are the conditions that determine that an individual remains healthy (health determinants).
