Ivan Oransky: Kategoriziramo li prečesto sve kao bolest?

Modern healthcare increasingly labels normal life experiences as preconditions, such as pre-hypertension and subclinical acne. Every year, over two trillion dollars are spent treating these risk factors, yet 100,000 people die from the complications of treatments rather than their original ailments. The trend to medicalize everything, from puberty to menopause, burdens society with unnecessary drugs and anxiety. A shift in mindset is needed—sometimes the best move is to do less, not more.
