Cholesterol is a waxy substance your body needs to build cells. But when there’s too much of certain types in the blood, it can raise the risk of plaque build-up in the arteries.

LDL is often called ‘bad’ cholesterol because high levels of it can contribute to fatty build-up in the arteries. This can narrow the blood vessels and increase the risk of heart attack and stroke.

HDL is often called ‘good’ cholesterol because it helps carry cholesterol away from the arteries and back to the liver, where it can be removed from the body.

Triglycerides matter too. High triglycerides, especially together with high LDL or low HDL, can further increase heart health risks.

Your cholesterol numbers are best understood together — not one number at a time. Speak to your doctor about what your results mean for you.

The brain continues developing into the mid- and late-20s. One of the last areas to mature is the prefrontal cortex, which helps with planning, decision-making, and impulse control. However, brain development differs between individuals and should not be used to excuse poor behaviour.

Low levels of haemoglobin can make you feel tired, weak, or short of breath — but it’s not a diagnosis on its own.

Haemoglobin is the protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen around the body. If your level is low, it may be a sign of anaemia or another underlying issue, so it’s worth following up properly.

This guide covers what to do next, what symptoms to watch for, and why it’s important not to self-treat blindly.

Save this guide for future reference, and speak to a healthcare professional if you are concerned.

Red, itchy, or irritated eyes can be due to different reasons — dryness, allergy, infection, or something else.

Using drops without knowing the cause may not help, and could delay healing.

Read the label, use drops as directed, and get medical advice if symptoms keep coming back or come with pain, discharge, or blurry vision.

Save this before your next eye drop purchase.

Staying hydrated does more than quench your thirst — it can help you feel better, think clearer and stay energised throughout the day.

Small daily habits can make a big difference to your overall wellness. Start with something as simple as sipping water more often. 💧

It can interfere with sleep, focus, mood, learning, and active play — especially when screens replace bedtime routines, outdoor time, or face-to-face interactions.

Screen time is not always bad, but balance matters.

Set clear limits, choose age-appropriate content, take regular breaks, and keep screens away before bedtime.

It may not just be tiredness.

Long stretches on smartphones, tablets, or computers can lead to digital eye strain — especially when children forget to blink, hold screens too close, or go too long without breaks.

Watch out for signs like
➡️ frequent eye rubbing
➡️ headaches
➡️ dry or irritated eyes
➡️ blurry vision
➡️ squinting
➡️ complaints of tired eyes

Encourage your child to take regular screen breaks, blink often, and look far away from the screen every now and then.

And if the symptoms keep coming back, it’s best to arrange an eye check.

Save this as a reminder for your child’s next screen session.

Dengue can start with symptoms that feel like a regular fever — but it needs to be monitored carefully.

If you suspect you’ve caught dengue, see a doctor early, rest, drink enough fluids, and avoid medications such as aspirin or ibuprofen unless advised by a healthcare professional.

Also, watch for warning signs, especially around the time the fever starts to go down. Seek urgent medical care if symptoms worsen or warning signs appear.

Your body starts fighting before you feel sick.

When germs enter, your immune system spots the invader, sends in white blood cells, and may trigger fever or inflammation.

That tired, achy feeling? It could be your body working hard behind the scenes.

Rest, hydrate, and seek medical advice if symptoms are severe or not improving.
