Ever heard of Green Prescriptions? These are scripts given by doctors or nurses with lifestyle modifications written on them. This is in sharp contrast to mainstream prescriptions usually given out for medications. Green prescriptions rely on alternate non-medical strategies that can influence your health. The reliance on drugs and other interventions is thus limited, or sometimes completely negated.
Green prescriptions are almost universally applicable in all aspects of health, spanning from entirely preventable conditions to even pre-existing chronic conditions. There are many preventable infectious diseases, like sexual infections (STIs), hygienic-related infections, or even malaria. These render themselves easily to green prescriptions.
