As part of the “Yellow & Green July” campaigns, dedicated to raising awareness about the fight against viral hepatitis and head and neck cancer, the radio program “Vamos Falar de Saúde” broadcast on Rádio Huíla (96.2 / 96.6 FM), featured a very special guest. Presenter Lucrécia Miguel welcomed Dr. Helena Glória Benedito Sachilombo, a renowned specialist in General and Family Medicine, to the studio for an enlightening and vital conversation about adopting a healthy lifestyle.
During the broadcast, Dr. Sachilombo demystified the main concepts surrounding physical and mental well-being. According to the specialist, a healthy lifestyle is not just about the absence of disease or restrictive diets, but rather a set of daily habits that promote longevity and quality of life. The concept is based on a continuous balance between proper nutrition, regular physical activity, adequate rest, and mental health. The doctor detailed the numerous direct benefits of this preventative behavior. “Opting for more conscious daily choices acts as a true protective shield for our bodies,” she stated. Among the main advantages highlighted by the specialist are:
- A drastic reduction in the risk of developing chronic non-communicable diseases—such as hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and cardiovascular problems;
- A significant improvement in daily disposition and a strengthening of the immune system.
The doctor also explained that small gestures, such as increasing water consumption, reducing the intake of sugars and saturated fats, and combating sedentary lifestyles with daily walks, generate a profound impact on public health in the long term.
At a time when the Liberatos Group is reinforcing its social commitment through the motto “We Build and We Care,” with the institutional support of the Government of Angola and the Provincial Government of Huíla, this interview serves as an urgent appeal for active prevention and self-care, fundamental pillars for the development of a stronger and more resilient society.
