Here we'll talk about anarchist social medicine. Like Malatesta would have suggested it, the question must be viewed with an investigation and critical view, it is not about simply presenting what is under a "coat of revolt".[1] The process to an "anarchist social medicine" shouldn't either be made up of a search for perfect health, one wants rather to release our lives, to dispell the state institutions and their mythical certainties.
Hygiene
To speak about health, a really important element(for autonomy and life quality) shoudn't be forgot: hygiene, that play a primary role in the health of the community. First, the concept of Hygiene gathers all the behaviours contributing to maintain an individual in good health. Industries of "hygiene" products profit a lot from the false ideas received about good health. From an hygienist view, "good health" is rather a whole of healthy behaviours and the safeguarding of the fragile balance of the ecosystem in our body. Eliminating systematically all the micro-organisms from our environment is not a viable solution. We should maintain a good balance between each species if we don't want to increase our risks of allergies, for example during a simple voyage abroad.
Hygiene also fights against the environmental factors being able to contribute to a deterioration of health, among others, pollution.
Certain global solutions of health also called the hygiene systems (which one could also call hygiene of life). For example, natural hygiene, or sanitarianism, declares that the human body is a system which is maintained and cares for himself (without drugs) and that the lifespan should be between 120 and 150 years. Among the other assertions, one finds, that the primary causes of mortality are: stress, the suraccumulation of toxins, the overload of work, overfeeding, the catch of nonhealthy substances for health... the "treatments" to which natural hygiene recurs include fasting, physical exercise, and to avoid anxiety, stimulants and vaccines from the personal habits.
