This morning, we had the honour of visiting Sizani

This morning, we had the honour of visiting Sizani Primary School in Salt Rock where we joined the team from The Red Movement in distributing menstrual cups. We loved experiencing the project first-hand and seeing the girls’ reactions when they found out how the menstrual cups work. The Red Movement is all about educating girls about menstruation, equipping them with medical-grade menstrual cups and empowering them to ask questions in a safe space.

To support the cause, pledge a menstrual cup AND stand a chance to win a spot on the next Red Retreat, which includes two nights accommodation at Thanda Safari, go to @the_red_movement_ page and click their zapper link in their bio to pledge your menstrual cup.

@lisarobarts_ot, a Ballito-based occupational therapist, specialises in the rehabilitation of hand injuries, as well as neurological rehabilitation. We asked her how to avoid overuse injuries to our hands.

At some point in our lives, we are all likely to experience achy thumbs or shooting pains up our forearms, or funny sensations in our fingers. These are sometime due to a once-off injury like trying to catch a cricket ball one-handed at the T20, or from falling over a loose brick on a promenade run.

Sometimes, however, these little injuries are caused by small, repetitive movements that are perfectly harmless on their own, but when done over and over again they can cause damage to our hands.

Common symptoms of over-use injuries may include:
• Pain, usually in the joints of our hands, often where our thumb joins the wrist
• Sensations such a shooting pains, numbness or pins and needles
• Weakness when trying to grip or pinch items
• Swelling in the hand or fingers
• Unusual clicking or locking of fingers. or thumbs when bending

It’s no secret that nutrition has a direct impac

It’s no secret that nutrition has a direct impact on our overall health, but did you know that eating the right foods can help maintain your vision? Dr Yavische Reddy, an ophthalmologist based in Ballito, explains the connection.

Eating a balanced diet rich in nutrients has plenty of health benefits, but when it comes to eye health specifically, research suggests that foods rich in vitamins C and E, zinc, lutein, zeaxanthin, and omega-3 fatty acids are the ones to look out for. These nutrients have been linked to lower risk of cataracts and age-related macular degeneration, as well as dry eyes in old age.

To make sure that you get plenty of vitamin C, choose fruits and veggies like oranges, grapefruit, kiwifruit, strawberries, tomatoes, red and green peppers and broccoli. Good sources of vitamin E include almonds, sunflower seeds, olive oil, and avocadoes, while zinc can be found in legumes, seeds, meat, dairy and eggs.

Lutein and zeaxanthin both naturally occur in the retina, which is the lining at the back of the eye. For this reason, it’s a good idea to incorporate these nutrients into your diet – find them in leafy vegetables like spinach and kale, as well as broccoli, raspberries, pawpaw, peaches and mangoes.
