Lehrstart in der Praxis Claravita!

Prevention: When is a check-up useful?
Many diseases can be detected early and treated effectively through preventive examinations. Therefore, under certain circumstances, it may be advisable to have a screening or check-up with your family doctor, even without acute symptoms.
A check-up includes a review of your personal medical history, a physical examination by your family doctor, laboratory tests, and, if necessary, further examinations.
The specific tests performed in your specific case depend on the following factors, among others:
- State of health and medical history
- Family history, such as high blood pressure, heart attacks, strokes, cancer, and autoimmune diseases
- Individual risk factors such as smoking, stress, and obesity
- Age
- Gender
Would you like to know whether a check-up would be beneficial for you?
We would be happy to offer you an appointment for a personal preliminary consultation at the Claravita practice. We look forward to hearing from you!
Hurray, summer is here: drinking a lot is the order of the day!
Cucumber Quote: "The human body is 80% water. So we are basically just cucumbers with complicated emotions ;)"
When temperatures are warm, our bodies sweat more. It is therefore important to compensate for this loss by consuming plenty of liquids like water or unsweetened teas. It is advisable to avoid sugary drinks and alcohol in hot temperatures. The temperature of the drinks should not be too hot or too cold. In order to provide the body with a sufficient amount of liquid throughout the day, it can make sense to always keep your drinking bottle within easy reach at your workplace as a reminder.
The Praxis Claravita team wishes you a nice and relaxing summer!
Iron in the Body: Importance and Sources
Iron is an essential mineral that is necessary for the formation of hemoglobin, which transports oxygen in the blood. A deficiency can lead to anemia, which causes fatigue and weakness. Iron also plays an important role in energy metabolism and supports the immune system.
Good sources of iron are red meat, poultry, fish, legumes, spinach, nuts and whole grain products. To increase iron intake, these foods should be combined with foods containing vitamin C, as these improve the absorption of iron. This keeps our body vital and full of energy, ready to master the challenges of life.
Iron-rich menu ideas: lentil salad with mango and avocado, chickpeas "Sweet & Sour", wok with vegetables and beef, chicken wraps.
Would you like to have your iron levels checked? Please contact us for a check.
The Claravita team wishes you Bon appetit while eating and trying out the menu ideas!
Welcome to our team!
Dear Patients,
Dr. Lena Arend is joining our team as a new addition. She will be offering her consultations at our Claravita practice starting April 3, 2025. We warmly welcome you with joy and enthusiasm! (More information under "Team").
Your Claravita team
Tick-borne encephalitis (TBE)
After summer is before summer. To enjoy the next summer without worry, a "TBE" vaccination is recommended. Because not only do we enjoy pleasant temperatures, but also various arachnids, such as ticks. These live in deciduous forests and feed on animal and human blood.
What dangers does a tick bite pose?
The tick can transmit TBE (tick-borne encephalitis or meningitis) as well as Lyme disease and other diseases. There is a safe and effective vaccination for the TBE virus to prevent it.
Would you like to be vaccinated? Please contact us at the Claravita practice. We can carry out the vaccination in our practice.
Other protective measures:
Long clothing, insect repellent for the skin and clothes provide further effective protection against the small ticks. It is also advisable to check your body and clothing for ticks after a trip in the countryside.
If a tick is already attached to your body:
- Use tweezers or a tick card.
- Grab the tick as close to the skin as possible and pull it out without twisting.
- Disinfect the area of skin.
