Adjunct of the Clinic Director and Coordinator of Sleep Medicine at Clinica Almada Lusiadas Almada. Internal Medicine Specialist and European Expert in Sleep Medicine.
For several years, I have been promoting a preventive medicine with evaluation and approach of the three pillars of our Health: Sleep, Food and Exercise. For several decades medicine has highlighted the benefit of a good nutrition and a regular physical activity. However, it has not been integrated consistently our sleep and our sleep disturbances in our day-to-day life. Progressively, science has shown that not sleeping, in quantity, in quality and at the right time of day, has health consequences and is strong associated with chronic diseases.
I develop an internal medicine and sleep medicine integrate practice, including nutrition and exercise, which allows a holistic and comprehensive view of our patients and makes it possible to control more successfully and prevent many chronic diseases that are a scourge of the Actual Society.
