Healthy Lifestyle Awareness

A healthy lifestyle encompasses a balanced diet, regular physical activity, mental health care, and avoiding harmful habits like smoking or excessive alcohol consumption.

Committing to being healthy is a great goal but being healthy entails more than just eating a nutritious meal now and then and going to the gym once a month. Because old habits die hard, changing your behaviours is a process that involves several stages. Sometimes it takes a while before changes like healthy eating and regular physical activity become new habits. And, yes, you may face roadblocks (and even the odd doughnut) along the way.

Skin Cancer Awareness

  • Sunburn can occur within fifteen minutes, and the damage caused is permanent, irreversible and adds up with each exposure to the sun.
  • Skin cancer is the most common cancer worldwide and SA has one of the highest monitored ultraviolet (UV) levels in the world, resulting in one of the highest skin cancer rates globally.
  • UV radiation is just as dangerous for outdoor labourers, sports people, on the playground or when driving to work, as it is when at the beach or pool. Rays can also reflect off surfaces and cause sunburn when it is overcast.
  • It’s getting hotter, so be SunSmarter!
