The status of the human embryo: an interdisciplinary (bioethical) analysis of reality

The status of the human embryo: an interdisciplinary (bioethical) analysis of reality

Determining the status of the human embryo is not an easy task, especially when there are different realities and proposals about it. While trying  to  describe  what  a  person  is,  is  already complex because of the social, biological, psychological and spiritual dimensions involved, when we add to this the anthropological, legal, ontological and biological  value  of  the  development  of  the  person,  it  becomes  even  more complicated. However, when we understand that it is not appropriate to generate conflict between disciplines, but, on the contrary, that our task is  to  dialogue  and  understand  that  we  are  all  working  with  the  same reality, we can then link the human being in all its dimensions, see its integrality and rescue the original value of the human being from conception to death.

Ultra-processed foods as a topic of study in global bioethics
Author: Gustavo Pérez Berlanga
DOI: https://doi.org/10.36105/mye.2023v34n4.02

This article proposes to consider food in general and ultra-processed foods  and  sugar-sweetened  beverages  in  particular,  as  an  issue  that concerns global bioethics. The first section explains the relationship between the consumption of ultra-processed foods and health, the second  section  relates  the  so-called  non-communicable  diseases  and mental health with food, and the third section argues the role that bioethics, especially global bioethics, should play around food.
