While The 4 Pillar Plan is a guide tailored to individuals, you can’t help wondering how the highly stressed National Health Service would be affected by all of us making small lifestyle improvements. Chatterjee is evangelical on this point too. “I believe the NHS is unsustainable unless we take the weight of lifestyle-driven illness off it. It doesn’t matter which political party comes in, or who pledges this million or that billion, the reality is that the NHS is creaking. And the reason is that modern society is driving ill-health. If one day you saw a rash on your arm, what do you think you might do? Most people might visit the doctor who would likely prescribe some medicinal cream to make it go away. The problem is, although your rash might go away, there’s no telling where it came from in the first place. You could have problems with your immune system, for example, which the doctor would have completely overlooked. Dr. Rangan Chatterjee is regarded as one of the most influential doctors in the UK and wants to change how medicine will be practised in years to come. He has been called a pioneer and is changing the way that we look at illness. He is known for finding the root cause of people's problems and he highlighted his methods in the ground-breaking BBC television show, Doctor in the House, which has been shown in over 70 countries around the world. In 2017, he was placed 8th in the Pulse Power 50 list for influential GPs. You might think that it’s harder to take control of your sleep than the other aspects of the plan. That’s what we thought, anyway. Chatterjee disagrees.

This is to do with emotional commotion,” says Chatterjee. “One of the most common causes of not sleeping is not being able to switch your brain off. So many good ideas in this book - little ways you can improve your life, each supporting one of Dr Chatterjee's four pillars of Relax, Eat, Move and Sleep. The author is a GP in the UK National Health Service, as well as an author and occasionally a TV doctor, and one of the nice elements of the book for me was the little stories of how he has used some of these practices to improve the lives of his patients, often without having to resort to additional medication. He is a strong believer in looking at the whole person and their lifestyle, rather than just the set of symptoms, and it's clear that this is the way forward for health across an aging population serviced by a limited set of resources. So much more effective in the end, and the interventions seem likely to be both longer-lasting and less expensive. It's great to see a well-researched, practical book with everyday, accessible, changes that can really make a difference to how you live. In the comments, I saw some vegans disagreeing with her decision. But their thoughts reflected something I was thinking also. It’s the truth that we’re all different and foods affect each of us in various ways. We are informed about our microbiome, i.e. the “bugs”, as he calls them, that live in our gut. An ideal microbiome is a diverse one, and the more diverse our eating, the more diverse our gut bugs. These love plant-based fibre. Broccoli and other cruciferous vegetables are especially loved by these bugs. They are beneficial for the immune system and sooth inflammation. This is an excellent book, providing us with basic, necessary information about how to keep or regain our health. Dr. Chatterjee tells us how to relax, eat, move and sleep, these being the four pillars of health.A definition of ACP, its underpinning standards and governance, can be found in the Multi-professional framework for advanced clinical practice in England. The framework ensures there is national consistency in the level of practice across multi-professional roles that is clearly understood by the public, advanced clinical practitioners, their colleagues, education providers and employers.

The People Plan 2020/21: action for us all, published at the end of July 2020 along with Our People Promise, built on the interim People Plan to set out a range of actions to deliver this. These are organised around four pillars:

Developing advanced clinical practice roles, as well as the level of practice just below and above ACP level should be considered a key component of contemporary workforce planning, as described in the NHS Long Term Plan. Our bodies, including brains, emotions, muscles, and everything in between, cannot function without sleep. That’s because sleep is the time when your body takes out all the waste that cells build up when you’re awake. This is what makes getting your z’s improve your energy, attention, and learning capability, among many other things.
