Time for a check up?
Getting a simple check of your blood pressure and heart can help to diagnose and treat heart disease, which is one of Australia’s largest health problems.
To reduce your risk of heart disease be sure to live an active and healthy lifestyle, including physical exercise, on the recommendation of your doctor, having a balanced and healthy diet and maintaining a healthy weight.
For your own assessment please pop by and see me in clinic.

Brr, it’s getting cold outside 🥶
But don’t let that put you off getting some fresh air. Research has shown that fresh air helps to digest food more effectively, improve blood pressure and the immune system and have a positive impact on mental health.
So whilst it’s tempting to stay rugged up and indoors, make sure you make some time this week to take a walk in the outdoors.

How much salt do you eat? 🧂
It’s recommended that we have no more than 5g of salt a day or 2300mg of sodium. However, the average Australian has almost twice that much - a staggering 9g of salt a day. Having an excess of salt leads to serious health conditions such as high blood pressure, heart attacks and stroke.
Next time you’re in the supermarket take a look at the nutritional label. You want to aim to have foods low in salt which means no more than 120mg of sodium per 100g. High salt foods are considered to have 400mg of sodium per 100g.

With over 19,000 Australians dying of smoking related diseases each year, making a change to stop smoking this year is a great goal.
Did you know that when you stop smoking a number of positive impacts happen to your body? Within 24 hours blood levels of Carbon Monoxide are dramatically reduced, meaning more oxygen can reach vital organs. With long term smoking cessation over 10 years, the risk of lung cancer is less than half that of person who continues to smoke.
It’s never too late to make a positive change to your body. Please pop by and see me in clinic for information and help.
