摘要

The studies concerning Biology should be extended to macro-scales, trying to understand their ‘anatomical’ components, physiological processes and state functions, transformation processes, clinical-diagnostic evaluation, pathologies, and rehabilitation therapies. It is possible to rank a list of Landscape SyndromeLandscape syndromes. It could be helpful to divide well-known traditional processes, e.g., viral infections, water alteration/deficiency, or direct toxicity, and newfound processes. We report an example of how Biological macro-scale alterations and derived physiological processes damage human health. Environmental stressEnvironmental stress can be registered by the ethological concept of ‘value judgment’. The sympathetic nervous systemsympathetic nervous system and the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis mediate the integrated responses of the human organism to stress. The crucial importance of natural mature forests is vast. In Japan, a ‘Forest BathForest Bath’ was traditionally recommended as a therapy. Note that the psycho-physical relaxation condition enhances the beneficial action of terpenes and monoterpenesmonoterpenes, which have antibacterial and analgesic effects and increase the activity of the immune systemimmune system. A direct relation between psychic stress and inflammation is demonstrated.
