25.01.2022 Do you know how important sleep is? Men who sleep 7-8 hours per night have approximately 60% less risk of fatal heart attacks than those who sleep 5 hours or less. Lack of adequate sleep can also affect your immune system, energy levels and your mood. If you suffer from disrupted sleep, chat with our pharmacy team for advice. Although we live in one of the healthiest countries, on average, Australian men die six years younger than women. 30% of a man’s overall health is de...termined by their genetics, but the rest is within their control. On average, men live the equivalent of 9 years in poor health and most of this is caused by small preventable lifestyle changes. If you have any concerns about your health, talk to your doctor or health professional. Your local Malouf or Ramsay pharmacist is easy to access and always available to provide expert advice on ways to improve your health. Simple changes to your lifestyle can make a world of difference.

24.01.2022 Although we live in one of the healthiest countries, on average, Australian men die six years younger than women. However, simple changes to your lifestyle can make a world of difference! Here are 4 simple ways men can improve their health: #1 - Sleep is important! Men who sleep 7-8 hours per night have approximately 60% less risk of fatal heart attacks than those who sleep 5 hours or less. Lack of adequate sleep can also affect your immune system, energy levels and your m...ood. If you suffer from disrupted sleep, chat with our pharmacy team for advice. #2 - It’s important to monitor your alcohol intake. More than 1 in 2 men engage in high-risk levels of drinking on single occasions, and 1 in 4 men consume more than the maximum recommended 2 standard drinks per day on average; this increases to almost 1 in 3 men aged 55-64. Drinking more than 10 standard drinks a week almost doubles your risk of type 2 diabetes! #3 - Eat a balanced diet with 5-7 serves of fruit and vegetables per day. Less than 1 in 30 men are eating enough fruit and vegetables, according to Australian guidelines. If you feel you are lacking nutrition, your Ramsay pharmacist can recommend supplements to help until your eating plan is back on track. #4 - Exercise is an important element in maintaining your health. Men who climb 50 stairs or walk 5 city blocks per day may lower their risk of a heart attack by 25%. Also, inactive men are 60% more likely to suffer from depression than active men. Exercise doesn’t need to be hard, join some friends for a game of tennis, play football with the kids or take the dog for a daily walk. If you have any concerns about your health, talk to your doctor or health professional. Your local Malouf or Ramsay pharmacist is easy to access and always available to provide expert advice on ways to improve your health.

23.01.2022 Keeping your skin hydrated is actually really important. Dry skin can flake, itch, crack, bleed and even become infected. It can also make fine lines and wrinkles more noticeable. You can also talk to your local Ramsay Pharmacist about some over the counter products that may work best for you. Our experts can also advise when it might be time to see a dermatologist or GP if your dry skin or eczema needs a prescription-only cream or ointment. Read more about dry skin and the effects on our latest blog here: http://ow.ly/APag50BwcXy

21.01.2022 This week raises awareness about the serious health issue of antibiotic resistance which occurs when bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites resist the effects of medications. Resistance makes common infections harder to treat and increases the risk of disease spread, severe illness and death. The more we use antibiotics, the more likely it is that drug resistant infections will develop. Appropriate use can be life-saving, but misuse or overuse needs to be minimised to prevent and contain antimicrobial resistance. It's important to maintain good hand hygiene, always take your full course of medication as prescribed and chat with your Ramsay or Malouf Pharmacist about your antibiotics or other medications to find out more and help reduce the resistance of antibiotics.

It’s important we look after this organ so that we continue to enjoy, and not labour over, each breath. Read our latest blog for advice and how to improve your lung health. http://ow.ly/Lny650CrF6J

04.01.2022 Diabetes is a condition where the amount of glucose (sugar) in the blood is too high. Sugar enters your blood from food. Sugar is normally then absorbed from blood into your cells; to do this, your body needs a hormone called insulin. If your body ignores this insulin, or isn’t making enough insulin, sugar can build up in the blood which causes problems. The symptoms of diabetes are usually mild, but if it isn’t detected and managed properly, high blood sugar levels can lead ...to heart disease (including heart attacks), stroke, and damage to kidneys, blood vessels, nerves, eyes and feet. High blood pressure can also cause heart attacks, heart failure, stroke and kidney damage. Fortunately, like diabetes, high blood pressure can be managed with a combination of diet, exercise and medicines. Unfortunately, like diabetes, high blood pressure can be a silent killer. Speak with our team at your local Malouf Pharmacies or Ramsay Pharmacy store we can run a simple and free screening test to let you know how likely you are to have undiagnosed diabetes or high blood pressure. We can also help guide you into the right type of care if screening test results aren’t normal.
