More than half out of 40 projects for the medical science development by the year of 2000 have been connected with the bio-active edible additives that are called "the food of XXI century", non-pharmacological means for many diseases. Most of these additives--nutricevtics and parapharmacevtics--are intended for the enrichment of food rations for the sick or healthy people. The ecologicaly safest and most effective are combined domestic adaptogens with immuno-modulating and antioxidating action that give anabolic and stimulating effect,--"leveton", "phytoton" and "adapton". The MKTs-229 tablets are residue discharge means. For atherosclerosis and general adiposis they recommend "tsar tablets" and "aiconol (ikhtien)"--on the base of cod-liver oil or "splat" made out of seaweed (algae). All these preparations have been clinically tested and received hygiene certificates from the Institute of Dietology of the Russian Academy of Medical Science.

Croupous pneumonia makes up to 7-8% of all pneumonia cases in different regions of the country. 83 lethal outcomes have been studied. In 46 cases pneumonia was primary illness and the direct cause of death. In case a pneumonia is diagnosed an urgent hospitalization and penicillin treatment (maximum effect on pneumococcus is ensured with 1.8-2.4 million units per day) are necessary. For the prevention of acute cardiovascular insufficiency camphor is prescribed for 2-3 days. Mucolytic preparations and--after normalization of temperature--physiotherapeutic methods and therapeutic exercises are used for treatment. In 25-46.6% of lethal cases pneumonia is not diagnosed in their lifetime. Late hospitalization influencing illness's outcome takes place in 73% of cases.
