🩺🌍 WORLD KIDNEY DAY – 12 MARCH 2026

Today we raise awareness about the importance of healthy kidneys and how vital they are to your overall wellbeing.

Your kidneys work 24 hours a day to keep your body healthy. They filter waste and toxins from your blood, balance fluids, regulate blood pressure, and help keep your bones strong.

However, kidney disease often develops silently, with very few symptoms in the early stages. Many people only discover they have kidney problems when the disease is already advanced.

⚠️ Common risk factors for kidney disease include:
• High blood pressure
• Diabetes
• Obesity
• Smoking
• Excessive alcohol use
• Family history of kidney disease

🚨 Possible warning signs may include:

• Swelling of the feet or ankles
• Feeling tired all the time
• Changes in urination
• Persistent back pain
• Loss of appetite

💧 How to protect your kidneys:

✔ Drink enough water
✔ Eat a balanced, healthy diet
✔ Exercise regularly
✔ Avoid smoking
✔ Limit alcohol intake
✔ Go for regular health check-ups
Early detection can help prevent serious complications and protect your kidney health.

👁 Today is World Glaucoma Day (12 March)

Did you know?

Glaucoma is one of the leading causes of irreversible blindness worldwide, but many people do not know they have it until their vision is already affected.

Glaucoma occurs when fluid builds up inside the eye, increasing pressure and gradually damaging the optic nerve.

Common risk factors include:
✔ Family history of glaucoma
✔ Diabetes or high blood pressure
✔ Ageing
✔ Eye injuries

The good news:
Although glaucoma cannot always be prevented, early diagnosis and treatment can slow or stop vision loss.
Regular eye examinations are especially important if you are at higher risk.

👁 World Glaucoma Week (9–15 March)

What is Glaucoma?

Glaucoma is a group of eye diseases that damage the optic nerve, the part of the eye that sends visual information to the brain. This damage is often caused by increased pressure inside the eye.
Glaucoma develops slowly and usually does not cause pain or early symptoms, which is why it is often called the “silent thief of sight.” If left untreated, it can lead to permanent vision loss or blindness.

What causes glaucoma?

Several factors can increase the risk, including: 👁 High pressure inside the eye
👁 Family history of glaucoma
👁 Diabetes or high blood pressure
👁 Age over 40
👁 Previous eye injuries
Can glaucoma be prevented?

Glaucoma cannot always be prevented, but early detection and treatment can protect your vision. Regular eye examinations are the best way to detect it early.
If you notice blurred vision, eye pain, headaches, or loss of side vision, seek medical care.

🥗 Healthy Lunchbox vs Sugar Overload

What Are We Feeding Our Children?
Many lunchboxes today are filled with foods that are high in sugar, refined flour, and unhealthy fats- sweets, chocolates, cakes, and processed snacks. While these treats may taste good, they often lead to energy crashes, poor concentration, weight gain, and increased risk of diabetes and tooth decay.
A healthy lunchbox doesn’t have to be expensive or complicated. The goal is balance and nutrition.
✅ What a healthy lunchbox can include:
🍎 Fresh fruit (apple, banana, orange)
🥪 Whole-grain sandwich with egg, chicken, peanut butter, or cheese
🥕 Vegetables like carrots or cucumber sticks
🥛 Water or milk instead of sugary drinks
🥜 Nuts or yoghurt for protein and energy
Healthy foods help children:
✔ Concentrate better at school
✔ Maintain a healthy weight
✔ Build strong immunity
✔ Have stable energy throughout the day
Remember: Good nutrition today builds a healthier future tomorrow.
If you are concerned about your child’s diet, weight, or health, professional guidance can help.

Holani Medical Centre extends its heartfelt condolences to the Royal Family, the Valoyi (N’wamitwa) community, and the entire nation on the passing of Hosi N’wamitwa II.

Hosi N’wamitwa II was a remarkable and courageous leader whose strength, resilience, and commitment to justice made history. Her Constitutional Court victory in 2008 was not only a personal triumph, but a milestone for gender equality within traditional leadership in South Africa. She stood firm in the face of opposition and paved the way for future generations of women leaders.

Her leadership, dignity, and dedication to her people will forever remain part of her legacy.
May her soul rest in eternal peace.
May her family and community find comfort and strength during this difficult time.

🕊️ Rest in Power, Hosi N’wamitwa II.
From all of us at Holani Medical Centre

📻 Tune In: Important Health Talk on
Tomorrow morning, Dr MT Mbombi of Holani Medical Centre – Dr Thomas Mbombi Inc will be live on on the programme Tiko A Xi Etleli, discussing Human Papillomavirus (HPV) and the importance of HPV vaccination.

What is HPV?

HPV is a very common virus passed from one person to another through close skin-to-skin contact. While many HPV infections clear on their own, some types can lead to serious health problems, including cervical cancer and other cancers affecting both women and men.

Why is HPV vaccination important?

The HPV vaccine helps protect against the most harmful types of the virus. Vaccination is most effective when given early, but it also benefits older adolescents and adults. It is a safe and effective way to reduce the risk of HPV-related cancers.

📻 Listen in tomorrow morning on MLFM – Tiko A Xi Etleli

Get informed, ask questions, and learn how to protect yourself and your loved ones.

Benefits of Napping 😴

Feeling tired during the day? A short nap can do wonders for your body and mind. Power naps of 20–30 minutes can improve concentration, boost mood, reduce stress, and even support heart health. However, long naps late in the day may interfere with night-time sleep.
If you’re constantly exhausted despite resting, it could be a sign of an underlying health issue.
