What does the tension in Germany mean - and what would the specific consequences be?

Tension case-Germany-2025

In times of increasing international tensions, a term keeps cropping up in political debates that many citizens hardly know how to categorize: the "State of tension". But what does it mean in concrete terms when this case is established in Germany?

Dental cleaning - how often does it make sense?

Professional dental cleanings are now considered a standard recommendation - it is often suggested that they should be carried out every 6 months or even every 3 months. Those who can afford it (or have good supplementary dental insurance) are often praised. But how useful is it really? The answer, as so often, is: it depends.

Lithium orotate in microdosage

When you hear the word lithium, many people first think of modern rechargeable batteries, battery technology or - with a skeptical eye - psychotropic drugs.

Writing books with Affinity and BoD

...and why this is not a miracle, but the result of a clear strategy

For a long time, writing books was seen as something tedious - a lonely project that drags on for months or even years. But what if you let go of this image? What if you rethink writing - with a clear focus, well thought-out processes and targeted use of AI?

My personal experience with MUCOKEHL-D3 for hemorrhoids

MUCOKEHL D3 Ointment

I have been working intensively on the subject of hemorrhoids for more than ten years - unfortunately not out of theoretical interest, but from my own experience. During this time, I have already undergone two operations: a THD method (transanal haemorrhoid desarterialization) and a laser treatment.
