Federal, provincial, and territorial mental wellness programs and services seek to address the indicators that challenge wellness in many First Nations communities; however, there are gaps in services. Further, programs and services are not always delivered in a culturally safe manner. As a result, First Nations communities and leadership have been calling for the development of a coordinated, comprehensive approach to mental health and addictions programming. In response, the First Nations and Inuit Health Branch(FNIHB), the Assembly of First Nations(AFN), and Indigenous mental health leaders from various First Nations nongovernment organizations jointly developed the First Nations Mental Wellness Continuum Framework...

Les programmes et les services de mieux-être mental provinciaux, territoriaux et fédéraux visent à interpréter les indicateurs qui nuisent au mieux-être dans de nombreuses communautés des Premières Nations, mais les services comportent des lacunes. En outre, ces programmes et services ne sont pas toujours offerts conformément au principe de la sécurité culturelle. C'est pourquoi les communautés et les dirigeants des Premières Nations ont demandé l'élaboration d'une approche coordonnée et exhaustive en matière de programmes de santé mentale et de lutte contre les toxicomanies. Afin de répondre à cette demande, la Direction générale de la santé des Premières Nations et des Inuits (DGSPNI), l'Assemblée des Premières Nations (APN) et les leaders autochtones du domaine de la santé mentale de diverses organisations non gouvernementales des Premières Nations ont procédé conjointement à l'élaboration du Cadre du continuum du mieux-être mental des Premières Nations [...]

L'olivier, appelé l'arbre de vie dans la bible, est connu depuis l'antiquité pour conférer bien-être et longévité. À travers les âges, la tisane des feuilles d'olivier était un remède pour combattre les fièvres. Au 19ème siècle, des rapports médicaux témoignent de nombreux cas de guérison de malaria. Ces bienfaits étaient attribués à la substance amère des feuilles d'olivier. Au début du 20ème siècle, ce composant, l'oleuropéine, fut identifié. C'est son action contre les attaques parasitaires et bactériennes qui confère à l'olivier sa longévité remarquable. En 1969, les chercheurs de Upjohn Company identifièrent le composant actif de l'oleuropéine, l'élénolate de calcium.
