Preventive care isn’t one discipline — it’s a collaboration.

On 12 December 2025, leaders in clinical preventive medicine gathered at the Wits School of Public Health for a powerful workshop hosted by SAPHPMA.

Across six intersecting pillars —
💙Precision Medicine
💙Lifestyle Medicine
💙 Integrative & Functional Medicine
💙 Social Medicine
💙Regenerative Medicine
💙 Palliative Medicine

Doctors from each field shared insights on how these approaches connect, complement, and collectively shape the future of preventive care.

This is what healthcare looks like when we move from silos to systems, from treatment to true prevention.

Movement as Medicine – Even in December

December gets busy. Work is wrapping up, kids are finishing school, the sun is out, and routines start to shift. But in all the chaos, there’s one thing your body still needs — movement.

Not the “gym every day” type of movement.
Just the kind that keeps your body awake, your mind clear, and your mood steady.

Here’s why staying active in December matters more than we think:

✨ Movement boosts circulation – helping your body deliver oxygen and nutrients where they’re needed most.
✨ It reduces stress and tension – which many of us feel at this time of year.
✨ It supports better sleep and better mood – two things we all want heading into the holidays.
✨ It keeps your energy stable – especially when festive meals and late nights kick in.
✨ And long-term? Movement protects your biological age, helping you stay healthier for longer.

And the best part?
You don’t need a gym, equipment, or a long workout.

Try this:
– A 10-minute walk after dinner
– Gentle stretching before bed
– Dancing while you clean
– A quick mobility session between tasks
– Playing outside with the kids

All movement counts. All movement supports your future health.

As we head closer to the festive season, let’s choose habits that help us feel good now and support us later. Your body doesn’t need perfection — it just needs consistency and a little love.

Given the economic decline in South Africa, the importance of the relationship between preventive health and money is evermore super critical 💸

👉 Did you know that for every R1 spent on prevention, we save up to R10 in treatment costs.
Yes. TEN.

That’s the power of catching things early, knowing your risks, and taking action before health problems show up.

Think about it like this:

R1 on a screening today can prevent a R10 000 hospital bill tomorrow.

R1 on healthy habits now can save you from years of chronic medication later.

R1 on understanding your genes or your biology can protect your future self in ways treatment never could.

Prevention isn’t just convienient to have— it’s the smartest investment you can make with your money and your health🌱

🧠 Protect Your Brain by Feeding Your Focus

In a world full of noise and endless demands, focus has become a competitive advantage — and protecting the brain behind that focus is essential.

Brain health isn’t just about memory later in life; it’s about how well we think, decide, create, and perform today. And three pillars play a powerful role in keeping the brain sharp and resilient:

🔹 Omega-3 Fatty Acids
Often called brain fuel, Omega-3s support cell structure, reduce inflammation, and improve cognitive performance. They’re essential for attention, memory, and long-term brain protection.

🔹 Movement
Regular movement increases blood flow to the brain, boosts neuroplasticity, and sharpens mental clarity. Even a 10-minute walk can reset focus and elevate cognitive function.

🔹 Mindfulness
Pausing to breathe and ground yourself strengthens the prefrontal cortex — the part of the brain responsible for focus, problem-solving, and emotional regulation. Mindfulness builds mental resilience in the same way exercise builds physical strength.

The takeaway:
We can’t eliminate every distraction, but we can train and nourish our minds to stay sharp. What we eat, how we move, and the way we manage our inner world all contribute to long-term brain protection.

Strong brain health = better focus, better decisions, better quality of life💙

Women’s monthly cycles offer powerful insights into overall health.

Your menstrual cycle is a reflection of how well your body’s systems — hormonal, metabolic, and even immune — are functioning.
By tracking it, you gain valuable data that can guide preventive care.

Cycle tracking can help identify:
🌸 Hormonal imbalances (like estrogen or progesterone fluctuations)
🌸 Nutritional deficiencies impacting mood, skin, or energy
🌸 Patterns in stress or sleep that affect reproductive and general health
🌸 Early signs of underlying conditions, such as PCOS or thyroid dysfunction

Understanding your cycle allows you and your healthcare provider to make data-driven decisions — adjusting lifestyle, nutrition, and care before issues progress.

Knowledge of your body is the first step to prevention🩷

The importance of early genetic & health screenings for early detection is often overlooked.

Your genes hold valuable clues about your health — and early screening helps you listen before symptoms speak. 💡

Through regular health screenings and genetic testing, you can detect conditions like:
🩸 High blood sugar (diabetes risk)
💛 High cholesterol (heart disease risk)
🫀 Elevated blood pressure (hypertension)
🧬 Hormonal imbalances
🦴 Bone density loss (osteoporosis risk)
🩺 Thyroid disorders
and more.

Prevention begins with awareness. Knowing your biological and genetic makeup allows you to act early, make informed lifestyle changes, and live more meaningfully, fuller, and healthier. Start with a screening.
Your future self will thank you.

🥦 Nutrition = Your Recovery Superpower 🥑

When we think of recovery, most of us imagine rest days or sleep… but what we eat is just as powerful. 💪
The right foods don’t just fill us up — they replenish energy, speed up recovery, and fuel growth so we can show up stronger the next day.

So let’s test our food knowledge with a quick game of:
🟢 Replenish or ❌ Delete?

Here’s how it works:
We’ll list some foods — you tell us if they belong on the recovery team (Replenish) or if they don’t quite make the cut (Delete).

🥗 Avocado – Replenish or Delete?
🍩 Doughnuts – Replenish or Delete?
🐟 Salmon – Replenish or Delete?
🥤 Energy drinks – Replenish or Delete?
🍌 Bananas – Replenish or Delete?
🍟 Fries – Replenish or Delete?

💬 Drop your votes in the comments! Let’s see which foods our community says keep us energized and which ones drag us down.

✨ Remember: Nutrition is not about strict rules—it’s about balance, awareness, and giving your body what it needs to bounce back stronger.

This week, we are exploring Hydration and its importance in not only physical health but Stress Management as well💧

Why Hydration Matters
Water does so much more than quench your thirst. It helps regulate stress hormones, improves focus, keeps energy steady, and supports overall resilience during demanding days. Even mild dehydration can leave you feeling more tense, fatigued, and irritable — not ideal for busy schedules or high-pressure work!

So we thought to introduce another challenge for the week :
🚰💼 The 2-Liter Executive Challenge 💼🚰

This week, Prev Med is challenging busy executives (and everyday achievers) to put hydration to the test:
👉 Drink 2 liters of water every day for 7 days and track your progress.

Why take part?
✅ Keeps stress levels in check
✅ Boosts clarity and productivity
✅ Prevents fatigue and headaches
✅ Builds a simple but powerful wellbeing habit

💡 Tips to make it fun & doable:

💧Keep a refillable bottle at your desk and aim for 2 full refills.
💧Use phone reminders to sip regularly.
💧Add fruit or herbs for a refreshing twist.
💧Pair water breaks with quick stretch breaks for double benefits.

🎯 Your mission: 2 liters a day.
👀 Your reward: Sharper focus, calmer mind, healthier body.

Are you in? Comment “I’m in!” below and join the challenge — let’s stay hydrated, stress-free, and energized together this week
