Vacation in the fall - vacation with health benefits

Summer has passed, and you still haven't had time to go on vacation? No problem! After all, autumn, especially its first half, is a wonderful time for a full-fledged rest. It is not for nothing that the great Pushkin called autumn "the charm of the eyes."

Many people believe that the best vacation is in the fall, that is, in the "velvet season." And it's easy to understand them. Firstly, the crowds of vacationers have thinned out noticeably. The second reason is that the sea is still quite warm at the beginning of autumn, and other factors do not cease their healing effect during this period. Finally, a vacation in the fall can be cheaper.

Holidays in autumn 2013: we focus on the weather

The key factor for a successful vacation is good weather, especially if this vacation is in the fall. According to the long-term forecast of meteorologists, in 2013, almost summer weather will last in Ukraine throughout September. In the middle of the month, several rainy days are expected, and then until September 20th the sun will shine again and it will be warm.

A slight cooling with rain is forecast for the end of September. October is expected to be quite warm, but in the second ten days of the month there will be rain, which will lower the air temperature. But, as they say, nature has no bad weather...

Holidays with children in autumn – together it is more useful

If your children are not yet old enough to go to school, then go on holiday with them in the fall. It doesn’t matter that the kids won’t be splashing around in the sea for hours, but they won’t get heat stroke, since the amount of infrared radiation decreases in the fall. But ultraviolet rays (which don’t warm) have a higher biological activity, due to which vitamin D is produced in the epidermis of the skin. A deficiency of this vitamin increases the likelihood of developing osteoporosis (increased fragility of bones), can lead to cancer, and in childhood – to rickets.

But the main thing is that a holiday with children in autumn will allow you to breathe in the healing sea air, which contains a large number of phytoncides and ions of sodium, magnesium, potassium and iodine salts, which are part of sea water. Inhaling sea air saturates the body with vital elements, helps to increase the level of hemoglobin in the blood and activate the circulatory system, and also strengthens children's muscles and bones.

Beach Holidays in Autumn, or A Good Place in the Sun

For most people around the world, the concept of "fall vacation" and the word "beach" are synonymous. Although hours of lying on the beach (especially without special sunscreen) can result in dry skin and extra wrinkles, since harsh infrared radiation reduces the protective functions of the skin.

Moreover, in an effort to achieve a bronze tan, you can get solar urticaria or allergic dermatitis. And in case of cardiovascular insufficiency, hypertension, thyroid disease, liver disease, metabolic disorders and neurasthenia, sunbathing in the summer is strictly prohibited.

However, a beach holiday in moderate doses promotes the production of “happiness hormones” endorphins in the body, strengthens the immune system and helps get rid of some skin diseases, including fungal ones.

So a beach holiday in autumn, when the sun is gentle, will be beneficial for almost everyone. The main thing is to choose a good place in the sun. The rating of the best beaches in the world in 2013, based on reviews from tourists, included 10 places on the shores of seas and oceans. The best was recognized as "Hare Beach" on the Italian island of Lampedusa in the Mediterranean Sea: even in February, the water temperature here does not fall below +18°C.

Holidays in Ukraine in autumn: "My native country is vast"

Autumn holidays are conducive to travel, and Ukraine has many interesting places worth visiting: the Medobory Nature Reserve in the Khmelnytsky region, the Sofiyivka Dendrological Park in Uman, the Kinburn Spit in Mykolaiv, the unique Synevyr Lake in Transcarpathia…

And these are just some of the natural attractions of Ukraine, not counting the hundreds of historical monuments and true architectural masterpieces scattered throughout the country.

This is, of course, an active holiday that is unlikely to cure your bronchial asthma, although we do have such places in our country - for example, the Soledar salt caves in the Donetsk region, where they conduct treatment sessions for respiratory diseases.

New impressions will remain not only in the form of photographs in the family album: positive emotions reduce stress and replenish the energy reserves that can heal a person from many diseases.

You will say that it is tiring, that you want to lie on the beach, splash in the sea. Alas, then your route for a holiday in the fall within Ukraine is one - to the Black Sea, to Crimea.

Holidays in Crimea in autumn – the velvet season

Holidays in Crimea in autumn, like any holiday at sea, are extremely beneficial for health. In the velvet season there is no sweltering heat, but the air of the Crimean coast, especially the South Coast, is filled at any time of the year with a healing mixture of sea salt ions and phytoncides of coniferous plants growing here.

The beneficial effect of this air can cure many diseases, primarily of the respiratory, circulatory and nervous systems. In addition, on the South Coast of Crimea - in the area of Greater Yalta - the swimming season begins later, but extends until the end of October. The minimum cost of rest, for example, in the health resorts of Miskhor (Greater Yalta) in the second half of September is 355 UAH per day per person, in October - 315 UAH.

In addition to the South Coast of Crimea, in September-October you can also swim in Alushta, where a day's stay in a sanatorium or boarding house during this period costs (depending on the class of rooms) - 330-825 UAH. Here you can get treatment for chronic diseases of the cardiovascular system, upper respiratory tract and central nervous system.

The resorts of Yevpatoriya on the shore of the Kalamitsky Gulf specialize in balneological treatment of diseases of the musculoskeletal system and connective tissue, organs of the circulatory system, respiratory system, genitourinary, peripheral nervous system, endocrine system and skin. The cheapest vouchers for autumn cost here approximately 310-325 UAH per day per vacationer.

Until October you can sunbathe and swim in Koktebel, which is rightfully proud of its clean pebble beaches. In the autumn season, accommodation in Koktebel boarding houses costs an average of 250 UAH per day per person, in a holiday home - 350-400 UAH, in the private sector prices range from 60 UAH to 350 UAH.

Holidays in the Carpathians in autumn: nature itself heals here

The mountain clean air itself, enriched with phytoncides of coniferous forests, is able to alleviate almost any painful condition of a person and makes a holiday in the Carpathians in autumn maximally useful for the body and soul. And the mineral waters of this region (for example, "Naftusya" and "Bronislava" in Truskavets and all the waters in Morshyn) are recommended by doctors to those who suffer from chronic diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, dysfunction of the liver and gall bladder, and also have problems with metabolism.

The autumn season in the Carpathians pleases with warmth and sun, refreshes with rain, but invariably gives pleasure to the magnificent nature of these places. In addition, in the autumn - compared to the summer months - there are fewer vacationers in the Carpathians. In September-October, you can get to all procedures in the Carpathian sanatoriums and boarding houses without a queue and sit quietly with a cup of tea in a cafe.

Holidays in the Carpathians become cheaper in autumn: by 15% in September and by 20% in October. For example, in Morshyn (Lviv region) the cost per person per day is 200-425 UAH. And accommodation in sanatoriums of Ivano-Frankivsk region will cost one person 400-450 UAH per day.

Holidays in Transcarpathia in autumn – useful with pleasant

Of the nearly eight hundred mineral water sources in the Ukrainian Carpathians, more than 360 are located in Zakarpattia. These include the Borjomi-like Luzhanska mineral water (Svalyavsky district of Zakarpattia region), the boron- and fluorine-containing Polyana Kvasova mineral water (Mukachevo district), the Shayanskaya mineral water (Mezhgorsky district), etc.

Such a variety of natural mineral waters allows for full-fledged spa treatment of the digestive organs, biliary tract, cardiovascular system, kidneys and urinary tract, and musculoskeletal system. The local mineral waters also help remove toxins, salts, and radionuclides from the body.

Experts advise to organize your autumn vacation with benefit: to get rid of stress and insomnia, restore the body's tone and increase its defenses - drink healing water and take a course of health spa treatments (therapeutic baths, hydromassage or mud therapy).

In addition, a holiday in autumn in Transcarpathia is a unique local color, interesting architectural monuments and unforgettable natural beauty: mountains, lakes, waterfalls, ancient castles and fortresses.

The minimum autumn price for staying in sanatoriums and boarding houses located in Vinogradov and its environs is 230 UAH per day per person (economy option), the maximum is 735 UAH. In Rakhiv and Rakhiv district, the cost of health improvement in the autumn period ranges from 270 UAH to 725 UAH per day.

Holidays Abroad in Autumn: Following on from Summer

It is possible to extend the past summer in the fall at numerous foreign resorts. The most popular countries for vacations abroad in the fall are Türkiye, Egypt, Bulgaria, Spain, Croatia, Italy.

The best time to go on holiday abroad in autumn is until mid-October, because the weather gets worse later. For example, in the northern regions of Spain you can swim in the Atlantic Ocean and bask on the beach almost until the end of October, but in Croatia the water temperature in the Adriatic Sea is comfortable for swimming only until the end of September. The sea bathing season at Greek resorts ends around the same time.

If you are planning to organize a vacation in the fall on the Andaman Sea coast, for example, in Thailand, then you should take into account that in this country from May to November is the rainy season. September is not suitable for an autumn vacation in Cuba: the rainy season is still ongoing here, and the dry period begins in October.

Holidays in Turkey in autumn – to the four seas

Among the countries most popular with tourists, first of all, is Turkey, which has at its disposal the coasts of four seas at once - the Black, Mediterranean, Aegean and Marmara. The Turkish resorts of Antalya, Alanya, Bodrum, Marmaris, Kemer, Fethiye are world famous.

The numerous beaches of the resort regions of this country, crowded in summer, are especially attractive in the velvet season, when the 35-degree heat subsides. At the same time, the weather conditions remain very favorable for recreation in the fall: in October, the air warms up to +26°C, and the water - to +23°C.

Thanks to the well-organized tourism industry, a holiday in Turkey in autumn is not only comfortable, but also therapeutic. This is facilitated by complexes of various spa procedures using sea salt and algae. And those who want to treat joints and get rid of skin problems should visit the thermal and mud resorts of Turkey.

This is the Anatolian resort of Dalyan, famous for its therapeutic mud. The healing mud helps with diseases of the musculoskeletal system and skin diseases. At the resort of Pamukkale (in the southwest of Turkey), thermal and mud baths are used to treat rheumatism, lumbago, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, nervous and skin diseases. And the resort town of Kangal climbed to an altitude of 1600 meters above sea level, and the local mineral water contains selenium and zinc. In addition, tiny Gara Rufa fish live in the hot springs, which cleanse affected areas of the skin in diseases such as psoriasis and eczema.

The average price for a 2-bed room in three-star hotels in Antalya in September is 2800-3200 UAH per person. And for 7 days of accommodation in a 2-bed room in Bodrum hotels you will have to pay from 10.9 thousand to 15 thousand UAH.

Holidays in Egypt in Autumn: Summer Continues

After the peaks of August and September heat, a holiday in Egypt in autumn – the velvet season – is especially pleasant. In October, it becomes a little cooler here, and the water in the sea in the areas of Sharm el-Sheikh, Damietta, Baltim, Gamassan and Zaafarana remains at +23°C, and in the Red Sea – all +25°C. So the resort season here almost never ends, and a holiday in autumn is not cheaper than in summer. For example, in September in Sharm el-Sheikh three days in a 2-bed room (all inclusive) will cost 9.5-11 thousand UAH. There are hot springs at this resort, and soon it will be possible to take medical procedures for diseases of the joints and skin.

53 km from Hurghada, on the shores of the Red Sea, there is a far from fashionable resort of Safaga, which is almost the most important balneological resort of Egypt. Black sea sand - due to the content of various minerals and radioactive elements - is able to alleviate the course of some chronic joint diseases, as well as such a mysterious skin disease as psoriasis.

Holidays in Europe in Autumn: In the Footsteps of Russian Nobility

Autumn holidays in European countries are usually educational in nature. However, trips to Hungary, the Czech Republic, Switzerland or Germany can also have a health purpose.

In September, Germany is relatively warm (+17-22°C), in October, as in most countries of this climate zone, the air cools down to an average of +12°C. But this does not matter at all, since people from all over the world come here for treatment in the fall and even in the winter: Germany has up to three hundred different resorts.

The most famous of them and the oldest on the European continent are the thermal resorts of Baden-Baden and Wiesbaden. The city of millionaires Baden-Baden is located in the state of Baden-Württemberg. Ancient Roman conquerors splashed in its hot springs, and then Russian nobility and classical writers. These baths are still extremely useful for chronic rheumatic diseases and after injuries to the joints and spine, for circulatory disorders, diseases of the nervous system and respiratory tract.

The thermal resort of Wiesbaden unites about 30 thermal springs, and the temperature of the hottest of them exceeds +66ºС. It is called "Eagle Spring" and provides water for the famous resort complex "Therme Kaiser Friedrich". Balneotherapy for diseases of the musculoskeletal system is carried out here.

Hot springs of medicinal mineral water of the resort Edipsos - due to the content of salts of sodium, calcium, potassium, iron, magnesium, iodine and bromine - help in the treatment of rheumatism, radiculitis, arthrosis, diseases of the vascular system. This water has a healing effect on the whole organism.

Holidays in Bulgaria in autumn: from the Black Sea to the Balkans

Bulgaria's resorts are famous all over the world, including balneological and mud resorts. And if you want to dedicate your autumn vacation to your health, then this is the place to go. The level of comfort and service at Bulgaria's resorts is high, and the prices are much lower than at many other resorts.

For example, if you combine your autumn vacation with health improvement at the famous Pomorie resort, the cost of living in this city on the Burgas coast - on the terms of renting an apartment - starts from 25-30 euros per day. This resort is located on a peninsula near Burgas. Until mid-October it is warm here (+20-21°C).

The resort offers treatment using estuary sulphide muds, which are extracted from the bottom of the salt lake Pomorie. These muds are recognized by experts as some of the most effective in Europe due to their pronounced analgesic, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.

This brine is used in the form of applications, compresses and baths for diseases of the musculoskeletal system, central and peripheral nervous system, digestive and respiratory organs, genitourinary system, blood vessels and after injuries. And even for cerebral palsy.

On the Bulgarian Black Sea coast and in the mountainous regions of the country there are resorts with springs of healing water: Sandanski, Baknya, Kyustendil, Saperova Banya, Velingrad, Pavel Banya, Devin. Here, a holiday in the fall in an ecologically clean area and therapeutic procedures with mineral water will help with diseases of the respiratory system, cardiovascular system, musculoskeletal system, skin, peripheral nervous system. And taking water inside significantly improves the condition in diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, kidneys and urinary tract.

Holidays in Spain in Autumn: Between Beaches and Thermal Springs

Holidays in a country with over 2,000 beaches are associated with holidays on the Mediterranean coast. Fortunately, in September the average daytime air temperature does not drop below +25°C. However, the sea water is not the same as in summer - only +20°C.

Among all the coasts of Spain, which is washed by the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean, the most affordable in terms of prices is considered to be a holiday in the fall in Costa del Sol and Costa Blanca, where the minimum cost of staying for 8-9 days is just over 1000 euros.

The glory of the most expensive Spanish resort has been secured for Marbella.

But in addition to beaches, Spain has exactly the same number of natural mineral and thermal springs, and the resorts near them are organized on the principle of sanatorium-resort complexes, which include over 120 spa hotels. These are balneological hotels in Olmedo (Castile region), in Solares (Canatbria region), a resort complex on the thermal lake Lago Termal in the province of Aragon and many others. These resorts are year-round, and here patients have the opportunity to receive specialized treatment using climatotherapy, hydrotherapeutic procedures, mud therapy and improve their health.

For an autumn holiday, you can go to the Czech Republic. The weather here is quite warm until mid-October, and the fresh air in the mornings charges you with energy, which you can use to get acquainted with the magnificent architecture of Golden Prague, the famous medieval fortresses and Gothic castles in South Bohemia, Vyšehrad, Česká Lípa or Liberec.

But a holiday in the Czech Republic in autumn can be a health resort thanks to such balneological resorts as Karlovy Vary, Marianske Lazne, Janske Lazne, Teplice, and Jeseník.

The world-famous Karlovy Vary has mineral water coming from a depth of 2-2.5 km. This healing calcium-magnesium mineral water contains almost the entire periodic table. When consumed, it restores the normal functioning of the stomach, pancreas, liver and gall bladder, and slows down the growth of bacteria in the intestines.

Another famous Czech spa is Marianske Lazne. The sodium-sulphate-ferrous mineral water here is also effectively used to treat patients with gastrointestinal tract diseases and metabolic disorders.

Holidays in Italy in Autumn: Mud of Ischia Island

A holiday in autumn is a great opportunity to see the famous sights of Italy. But in addition to receiving aesthetic pleasure, you can improve your health, for example, at thermal resorts in the provinces of Tuscany, Campania, Lazio or Veneto.

In the Campania region there is the resort island of Ischia, located in the Tyrrhenian Sea (40 km from Naples). It is of volcanic origin and is famous for its natural thermal springs.

The island's climate is characterized by mild winters, so the holiday season lasts here until November. And even in winter on this island you can swim in natural "baths" on the shore, the sea water in which is heated by hot geysers gushing from the depths of the earth.

In three towns on the island of Ischia – Forio, Casamicciola and Serrara – there are thermal parks where hot mineral water sources – radon and sodium chloride – are used to treat many diseases.

The length of Montenegro's beaches on the Adriatic Sea is more than 70 km, the average air temperature in September is never lower than +25°C, in October +21°C, and in November it can reach +18°C.

The water in the sea on the Budva coast remains at +22-23°C until the middle of the autumn season. And its transparency in some places exceeds 35 meters.

This health resort treats diseases of the musculoskeletal system, gynecological and skin diseases, disorders of the central and peripheral nervous system.

In general, the entire nature of this country and its unique climatic conditions help those who suffer from cardiac, neurological and respiratory diseases to become healthier.

Holidays in Croatia in autumn - a quiet holiday

Even the most famous Croatian resort of Dubrovnik is suitable for a holiday in autumn, where the average air temperature in September is +19-23°C. In addition, in the velvet season, prices are usually 15% lower than in summer.

Thus, in the first half of autumn at such resorts as Istria and Umag, a comfortable 2-bed room in three-star hotels costs from 2150 UAH to 2625 UAH per day.

The best beach in Croatia and one of the best in the world is Zlatini Rat beach in Lovrečina Bay on the island of Brač (in Dalmatia). But in addition to a quiet beach holiday in autumn, Croatia offers its balneological and mud-cure resorts, which are located in the northern and eastern regions of the country.

There are over two dozen hot mineral water springs in Croatia, as well as a unique naphthalan deposit - the only one on the European continent.

And it is useful to recover from a heart attack and various injuries of the musculoskeletal system and spine at the resort Krapinske Toplice, where therapeutic mud and mineral water containing radon are used.

Holidays in Cyprus in autumn: "the island of luck"

Cyprus is the third largest island in the Mediterranean Sea with a total coastline of 648 km. This mountainous island, covered with pine, cypress and cedar forests, amazes with its unique beauty…

There are 330 sunny days a year, and October is warm: +20-25°C. Therefore, a holiday in Cyprus in autumn will bring pleasure, reinforced by sea walks and beautiful landscapes of the resorts in Nicosia, Larnaca and Ayia Napa. True, there are no thermal springs on the island, there are problems with fresh water, so you will have to "make do" with the sea and two salt lakes...

Despite this fact, Cyprus' subtropical Mediterranean climate is considered the healthiest on Earth, and the local population (compared to Americans or British) enjoys a higher life expectancy.

For Cyprus, tourism is a serious and very profitable sector of the economy, so medical tours to local resorts are organized. A vacation in the fall in a picturesque place under the lulling sound of the surf will help you relax and get rid of depression. And Cypriot doctors can diagnose and treat diseases of the stomach, intestines, genitourinary system, liver and pancreas.

Holidays in Russia in autumn – advantages beyond the Caucasian Mineral Waters

A holiday in autumn in the Russian Federation will correspond to the principle of "2 in 1" if you go to a place where there are sources of mineral water or therapeutic mud. KMV - Caucasian Mineral Waters fully meets this criterion. Among the powerful healing factors of KMV is the mild mountain-forest climate, which is equated to the climate of the Middle Alps

Salt-alkaline mineral waters from springs in Essentuki (Essentuki No. 17 and No. 4) are recommended by doctors for diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, musculoskeletal system and skin, as well as problems with gynecology and metabolism. Kislovodsk is famous for its "Narzan", which is widely used for chronic gastritis with increased gastric secretion, chronic colitis, liver and gallbladder diseases, chronic pancreatitis and in case of metabolic disorders.

Pyatigorsk is considered a universal resort, since there are 38 mineral springs here, which differ in the chemical composition of the water and its temperature. These are carbonic, hydrogen sulphide, carbonic-hydrogen sulphide and radon waters. Therefore, many body systems can be treated here.

In Zheleznovodsk, diseases of the stomach, intestines, kidneys and urinary system are treated with mineral water. And the sulphide-silt mud of Lake Tambukan has such antibacterial activity that it easily copes with any inflammation and kills not only microbes and pathogenic fungi, but also almost completely adsorbs staphylococcus. Its use is effective in the treatment of diseases of the skin and mucous membranes.

At the Black Sea resorts of Russia - in Sochi, Anapa and Gelendzhik - a holiday in autumn can be useful for baths in Matsesta, which help with cardiovascular and gynecological diseases, as well as with diseases of the joints and skin.

The cost of a 2-bed room in Gelendzhik hotels for September-October starts from 360 UAH per day (maximum price - 1955 UAH).

Holidays in Karelia in autumn: cloudy and rainy

Holidays in autumn in places where this season begins already in the second half of August and lasts until mid-October are quite problematic. The climate in Karelia, from which the Arctic Circle is a stone's throw away, is unstable, and autumn is cloudy and rainy…

But still, I want to see the famous Kizhi, Valaam and Solovki. But there is also a resort here - the first resort in Russia founded by Peter I - "Martial Waters" with springs of ferruginous mineral waters.

This mineral water is recommended for the treatment of ischemic heart disease, angina, cardiosclerosis, hypertension; arthritis and osteochondrosis; chronic gastritis and cholecystitis; radiculitis and polyneuritis; chronic bronchitis and pneumonia.

Holidays on Lake Baikal in Autumn: Towards Unknown Depths

When going on holiday in autumn to the deepest lake on our planet, it is somehow awkward to think about the weather. By the way, have you forgotten that Baikal contains almost 19% of the world's reserves of fresh lake water?

Experts say that it is the autumn holiday, when nature plays with all the colours of the rainbow in these picturesque Siberian places, that will be the most successful: there are no mosquitoes, and there are no frosts yet. No one doubts that Baikal has everything you need for a full holiday: clean air, fishing, mushrooms, berries, cedar cones. In addition, there are real resorts nearby, one of which is the balneological and mountain-climatic resort "Arshan", located in Buryatia, 210 km from Irkutsk. Local mineral carbonated thermal water and healing mud are used to treat diseases of the digestive, circulatory, respiratory, urinary and endocrine systems, as well as various metabolic disorders.

Holidays in Thailand in autumn: for lovers of distant travels

The climate in Thailand is tropical and humid. This means that there are two distinct monsoon seasons: the summer monsoon from May to mid-November, and the winter monsoon from November to February. And most regions of Thailand often experience heavy rains in August, September and October.

For an autumn holiday, you can choose noisy Pattaya, which is the most famous in the world and the most expensive resort in Thailand. Or you can take a ferry from Phuket to the province of Krabi. This exotic place is famous for its beaches with white sand and the purest turquoise sea. And in the thickets of the jungle there is a completely lake with a hot waterfall. Its stone slopes are dotted with depressions in which you can take baths.

The beaches of Mann Nai and Talu islands have quartz sand. It warms up well in the sun to a depth of 40 cm and is used to treat some diseases of the musculoskeletal system.

But the only resort in Thailand with geothermal mineral springs is Rayong, which is located 180 km from Bangkok - on the coast of the Gulf of Thailand. It is not only beautiful here, but also calm. The most suitable period for a trip to Rayong in the fall is from November to February. During these months, the air temperature is approximately +27-28°C.

Holidays in Cuba in Autumn – Caribbean Exotica

Taking into account the distance to be covered, a holiday in autumn in this country is not affordable. But perhaps you won’t feel the exoticism of the Caribbean Sea for cheap.

Cuba's climate is determined by the ocean that surrounds it: tropical heat is softened by almost constant winds to an average annual temperature of +25°C. And the coldest time here is in January - "only" +22°C. But the tropics make themselves known with high levels of humidity.

The beaches in Cuba are luxurious and almost all free. One of the exceptions is the beach in Varadero (the most popular resort town in the country), which is among the cleanest in the world, and its eco-friendliness is confirmed by UNESCO. A week of vacation in the fall at this resort (including a flight from Kyiv to Havana) will cost at least 30 thousand UAH (more than 2850 euros), although Russian tour operators charge almost half as much…

Cuban mineral and thermal water springs successfully treat joint and skin diseases at the Villa Clara resort. The sea air of the Santiago de Cuba resort has a therapeutic effect on diseases of the cardiovascular and central nervous systems, upper respiratory tract and endocrine system.
