HPV-related cancers take a long time to develop. The viruses are mostly transmitted in adolescence but often aren’t diagnosed until later. That’s why it’s important for children to be immunised when they’re young.
Around 80% of people will be exposed to HPV in their lifetime. Immunisation can significantly reduce HPV-related harm. Protecting all children before they’re exposed to HPV will protect their health in the future.
Free HPV immunisation at school or from your GP. For more info visit: www.health.govt.nz/hpv

We're disappointed that so many people we know, who were given good dietary advice chose to ignore it. Then two or three years later they tell us, "I've been on the 5:2 diet, and I've lost 5kg." That's a false dawn. If they had followed what Open Future Health told … View moreWe're disappointed that so many people we know, who were given good dietary advice chose to ignore it. Then two or three years later they tell us, "I've been on the 5:2 diet, and I've lost 5kg." That's a false dawn. If they had followed what Open Future Health told them three years previously they might have lost 20kg or more.
Every person chooses, and most people flatly reject the messages they need to hear. Of course, it's just a protective strategy, to avoid facing reality. They choose to "not knowing" even while they know quite well. The elephant is in the room, but they refuse to see it.
It's NEVER the fault of the individual who does this. The problem is in our society, in your family, in the social activities of your friends, in the building of shopping malls and products sold in coffee shops. Obesity is part of the environment; it's impossible to avoid. Look around, almost everyone has it. (Sometimes even thin people, have many of the problems associated with obesity, because even thin people eat the same rubbish diet, that most people eat.)
So we begin to improve our health by fixing the diet. The easy place to start is with breakfast. Bacon, eggs, some organ meat (Chicken lives on the plate shown), and if you quickly cook some cabbage, broccoli or kale in the same pan, it will taste delicious. Eliminate cereal and toast from your diet. (Take Out Diet.)
The illustration about fat and protein in the diet, explains why this changed style of eating works so well both for diabetes and for weight loss. There are a few little tricks to make it more effective, and those are all explained in the Open Future Health web site. The 5:2 diet principle, for instance, is very sensible. There are other ways to get even better results.
The third photo is a 43-year-old man named Jim, who went from being very fat, to running half marathons in two years. That's not exceptional, more the rule. Once people start eating a healthy diet, FIRST they lose weight, and LATER they want to exercise more. Quite the opposite of what you've been told for 50 years.
For almost all of us, if we can get our diet right, exercise will follow, and we can reduce our metabolic age by several years, in less than a year. You'll live longer, and be healthy all of your life, if you can get the formula right.
However, most people have a head full of dietary and health nonsense, that keeps them trapped, and unwell. Your doctor can't assist you very much. You own poor health knowledge will undermine you. Renew your health knowledge, and then start to ask your doctor better questions. Engage him/her in helping you develop good health, rather than just a lack of disease. There's a world of difference.
Invest four hours in your better health; from our web site, begin the Better Health Workshop. It takes time, but you will learn a lot, and it's a sound foundation for learning more. (FREE)

Save more on fees and make bulk re-payments against your loan without any penalties. Home renovations, debt consolidation and car purchase loans suddenly make a lot more sense. Contact us today and see how being a homeowner can really help you.
