Dementia Action Week runs from 21-27 September 2026 and encourages all Australians to start a conversation about dementia.

Dementia is not a normal part of ageing. Persistent changes in memory, thinking, mood, behaviour or the ability to manage everyday activities are worth discussing with a GP - at any age.

Looking after your general health can also support long-term brain health. Managing blood pressure, cholesterol and diabetes; staying active; addressing hearing or vision loss; avoiding smoking; and staying socially connected may help reduce future risk.

Prostate cancer is one of the most commonly diagnosed cancers in Australia, but many people are unsure when to discuss testing or what a prostate check involves.

For most people, the process begins with a conversation with their GP about their age, family history, symptoms, general health, and the potential benefits and limitations of testing.

Early prostate cancer may not cause symptoms. If you are approaching 50, have a family history of prostate cancer, are concerned about your risk, or have noticed urinary changes, speak with your GP about what may be appropriate for you.

R U OK? Day reminds us that a meaningful conversation can make a difference - but checking in with the people around us matters every day.

If someone is on your mind, make the time to ask how they are going, listen without judgement, encourage appropriate action and check in again afterwards. You do not need to have all the answers.

It is also important to check in with yourself. If you have been feeling overwhelmed, worried, low, stressed or unlike yourself, you do not need to wait for a crisis, or know exactly what support you need, before speaking with your GP.

Learn how to start the conversation and where support can begin:

Ongoing tiredness, difficulty concentrating, headaches, breathlessness and hair shedding can sometimes be signs of iron deficiency. However, symptoms alone cannot confirm the cause, a blood test is needed.

An iron infusion may help when dietary changes have not improved iron levels, iron tablets have not worked or can't be tolerated, or when iron needs to be restored quickly. It is not always the first treatment option, and your GP will also want to understand why your iron levels are low.

Our full article explains the difference between iron deficiency and anaemia, when an infusion may be recommended and what to expect.

Early detection can make a significant difference, yet many eligible Australians are not up to date with their cancer screening tests.

Australia has national screening programs for bowel, cervical and breast cancer. Bowel screening is free for eligible Australians, cervical screening is now required only every five years and can include a self-collected sample, and free breast screening is available to eligible women.

There is no national screening program for skin cancer, making it important to know your skin and speak with your GP about your individual risk and any changes you may be concerned about. But also to put in the diary to have your skin checked every year, the recommendation for Australians!

This Daffodil Day, take a moment to check whether you are due for screening. Our full article explains who is eligible, what has changed and when symptoms should be assessed by a doctor rather than waiting for a screening test.

Do you take creatine? It may affect how your routine kidney blood test results are interpreted.

Creatine is well researched for exercise and muscle performance, while its potential role in brain health is still being studied. Did you know, taking creatine can increase blood creatinine levels, which may make your estimated kidney function appear lower than it actually is.

Before starting creatine, or if you already supplement with creatine, speak with your GP before your next blood test and let them know what supplements you are taking.

Type 2 Diabetes rarely happens overnight — for many people, it starts years earlier with insulin resistance, a condition that can develop quietly with no obvious symptoms. 🩺

Left unchecked, insulin resistance can raise the risk of prediabetes, Type 2 Diabetes, heart disease and other chronic conditions. The good news? Early assessment and the right testing can help catch it before it progresses.
If you have risk factors like excess weight, a family history of Type 2 Diabetes, PCOS, high blood pressure or elevated blood sugar, it may be worth speaking to your GP about a Diabetes Risk Assessment.

is trending right now.

On TikTok, Instagram and YouTube, they are being promoted as the shortcut to faster recovery, weight loss, better skin, muscle gain, year-round tans and even ageing well.

But behind many of these posts is something rarely shown on screen: unapproved products, unknown ingredients, paid discount codes and real health risks.

A testimonial may feel convincing, especially when it comes from someone you follow and trust. But it is still only one person’s story.

Your health deserves more than a trend.

Our latest article takes a clear, factual look at the peptide boom — what peptides are, why Australian regulators are concerned, what the risks may be, and why the safest place to start is with a qualified healthcare professional who understands your history.

If you have seen peptides promoted online, are considering using them, or have already tried them and feel unsure, this is worth reading.
