While sodium reduction is a proven and cost-effective public health intervention, its impact depends on translating evidence into everyday choices and routine clinical practice.

The Read the Food Label Campaign is officially underway! Last week, NAFDAC, in collaboration with development partners, proudly flagged off this important national campaign to encourage Nigerians to develop the habit of reading and understanding food labels before purchasing or consuming packaged food products. Food labels are more than just information on a package; they are a valuable tool for making informed choices about the food we eat. By taking a moment to read the Nutrition Facts, ingredients, NAFDAC Registration Number, and Best Before or Expiry Date, consumers can make healthier and safer decisions for themselves and their families. This campaign marks the beginning of a sustained effort to promote nutrition literacy, empower consumers, and foster a culture of informed food choices across Nigeria. @CAPPAfrica @ResolveTSL @NhedNigeria @WHONigeria @IncubatorGHAI @UofANigeria Join the movement #ReadtheFoodLabel #SafeguardYourHealth

Five years after the @WHO launched the Global Diabetes Compact, the diabetes community gathered in Geneva to take stock of what it has achieved. On the sidelines of the 79th World Health Assembly, Helmsley joined WHO, @ResolveTSL, World Diabetes Foundation, and @WHOSEARO to reflect on the progress weโ€™ve made: first-of-their-kind WHO guidelines for diabetes, integrated care strategies reaching primary health systems across regions, and greater involvement of people living with diabetes in shaping the decisions that affect their care. @DrTomFrieden, Sanne Frost Helt, @BoehmeCatharina, Bianca Hemmingsen, and James Reid reflected on what five years of global collaboration have made possible โ€” and on the work ahead.

Today, we joined an emergency meeting convened by the House of Representatives (@HouseNGR) Committee on Healthcare Services to assess Nigeria's preparedness in responding to the #Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo and Uganda. For us, health security means sustained and predictable investment in epidemic preparedness, including health workers, risk communication, community engagement and Emergency-Ready Primary Health Care (ERPHC). Public trust requires continuous investment before, during, and after outbreaks. We will continue to monitor developments and amplify the information Nigerians need to stay informed and protected.

Good exchange with @DrTomFrieden of @ResolveTSL on the #HEARTS initiative and broader approaches to preventing and controlling noncommunicable diseases. Prevention remains one of the most effective tools for protecting health and reducing long-term pressure on health systems.
