Healthy Weight Campaign
Being above a healthy weight is a leading preventable cause of cancer, but less than half of all Australians are aware of this link. There is now strong evidence that being above a healthy weight and having increased toxic or visceral fat around your organs, can trigger 13 types of cancer. Almost 4,000 cancer cases in Australia in 2010 were thought to be attributable to being above a healthy weight. We want to raise awareness of this and encourage people to make healthy lifestyle choices. One way you can reduce your risk of weight gain is to avoid sugary drinks.

World Health Day
Universal health coverage is WHO’s number one goal. Key to achieving it is ensuring that everyone can obtain the care they need, when they need it, right in the heart of the community. Progress is being made in countries in all regions of the world. But millions of people still have no access at all to health care. Millions more are forced to choose between health care and other daily expenses such as food, clothing and even a home. This is why WHO is focusing on universal health coverage for this year’s World Health Day, on 7 April.
