EVERY STEP COUNTS 🚶

'What started as a Japanese company’s clever marketing trick has accidentally become one of our most useful health tools. Decades of research have refined that original guess into something much more sophisticated: personalised targets based on your age, health and what you can actually stick to.

The real revelation? You don’t need to hit some arbitrary target to transform your health. You just need to move more than you do now. Every single step counts.'

Diabetes is often called the "silent pandemic" in Australia because it can develop and progress without causing noticeable symptoms for years, meaning many people are unaware they have it until serious health complications arise.

Type 2 diabetes, in particular, can remain undiagnosed for long periods, some people only discover they have diabetes after complications like vision loss, foot ulcers, or heart problems occur. This undetected nature, combined with rapidly rising prevalence rates (Australia’s fastest-growing chronic condition), makes diabetes a major ongoing public health threat that is difficult to control without broader awareness and screening.

In addition to its silent onset, diabetes is associated with significant long-term risks, such as heart disease, kidney failure, blindness, and amputations, and is now among the leading causes of death in Australia. Because many people remain undiagnosed (estimations suggest there are hundreds of thousands of Australians living with undetected diabetes), it poses an escalating challenge for the health system necessitating the “silent pandemic” label.

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) causes infections of the lungs and respiratory tract. It's so common that most children have been infected with the virus by age 2. Respiratory syncytial virus can also infect adults (Mayo Clinic).

Typically, the symptoms are mild in adults and older, healthy children and often similar to that of a cold. However, RSV can cause severe infection in some cases, including in babies 12 months and younger, especially premature infants, older adults, people with heart and lung disease, or anyone with a weak immune system (immunocompromised).
