Heart disease is a major cause of health problems and death in Australia. The good news is, it’s often preventable. Here are my top tips to keep your heart ticking along nice and strong:
- Eat a healthy and balanced diet. Reduce consumption of foods that are high in saturated fats such as butter
- Exercise regularly after checking with your health provider. This could be a simple stroll on the beach or a brisk walk
- Stop smoking
- Cut down on alcohol
- Keep stress levels to a low and do activities that make you feel happy
- See you doctor regularly for a heart health check up.
If you are concerned about your heart or would like a check up, pop by and see me in clinic.
Sometimes afternoon naps can be helpful, as long as they are short. Studies show that an afternoon nap should only be 30-60 minutes in duration. Any longer than this, then we are at risk of falling into a deep sleep which can give us difficulties falling asleep later at night. For those that suffer insomnia, afternoon naps are not useful as they can make getting to sleep harder.
Stay tuned for a video coming soon over on drnora.com for getting the perfect night’s sleep.

Ladies, this week is National Cervical Cancer Awareness Week. With the recent world events many have put their own health on the backseat and delayed their cervical screening.
Cervical screening changed in December 2017. The new test is more accurate at detecting HPV which can lead to cell changes in the cervix. Once you have had the new test and it is normal you will only need one every 5 years.
So girls, what are you waiting for? Together we can build on the WHO’s vision where cervical cancer is eliminated as a public health concern by 2030. Book in your screening today. For more information about eligibility head over to accf.org.au.
