Varicose veins? Best treated in winter

The Vein Centre

Painful or just ugly varicose veins are a long - lasting problem.

The treatment is usually associated with a short-term compression therapy, which is the best tolerated during a winter time. Why don't have them assessed and treated now so your legs look and feel better next summer?

Visit a specialist orthodontist or a dentist with a special interest in orthodontics, and it's the same similarity.
All orthodontists were once dentists, but not all dentists are orthodontists. It takes an additional 3 years of specialist study and 5,000 hours of practical training to become a specialist orthodontist. It is not a weekend certification.

The Team from Neighbourhood Support New Zealand

‘The children are our future.’ It’s a well-loved cliché around the world because it’s absolutely true. The hopes and dreams we have for our communities are only as strong as the children and young people who continue to believe in them long after we’re gone.

‘The children are our future.’ It’s a well-loved cliché around the world because it’s absolutely true. The hopes and dreams we have for our communities are only as strong as the children and young people who continue to believe in them long after we’re gone.

This month is all about supporting our young people, to encourage and empower them to not only be the change-makers and community builders of tomorrow but also the best versions of themselves. To listen to their perspective and remember that it’s not just about what we can teach them, but what lessons they can teach us. After all, the recipe for creating healthy, happy children includes a lot of the same ingredients for building safer, more resilient and connected communities.

Want to share your thoughts?

Let us know how you’re supporting young people in your communities this month by tagging us in your posts + using the following hashtag so we can see what you get up to:

Nutrition Research: Do you think you may have high blood sugar? We need you!

Hope everyone had an awesome Easter break! We are currently looking for individuals who may have elevated blood sugar level (prediabetes) to participate in the study to see if antioxidant-rich plant extracts may help improve blood sugar levels. To express interest, go to: goo.gl...

Importance of this research:
An estimated 670, 000 New Zealanders have prediabetes, and many others are unaware of the condition. Prediabetes is a state higher than normal blood sugar level, but not high enough to be diagnosed as diabetes. However, people with prediabetes are at high risk of becoming diabetic. We are examining how nutrition such as antioxidant-rich plant extracts can prevent the progression towards diabetes.

How do you know you are at risk?
You should be tested for prediabetes if you have any of the following:
1. obesity (BMI of 30 or more, or 27 or more if you are Indo-Asian)
2. family history of early age onset of type 2 diabetes in more than one first degree relative (parent, brother or sister)
3. a woman who has had gestational diabetes
4. high blood pressure or cardiovascular disease (conditions affecting your heart and blood vessels)

You may have a quick check in the link to see if you are at risk: diabetesauckland.org.nz...

If you think you are at risk and would like to participate in the study, we would like to invite you over for a screening at your convenient time. The study requires four mornings and each session takes approximately 3 hours. You will be able to do your own work during this time. We are flexible with the time you can come for the study sessions. The study is also available on weekends. Free free to ask any questions too!
