The results of our Salt Substitute and Stroke Study and many other large-scale studies indicate that potassium-enriched salt should be included in hypertension treatment guidelines worldwide. The evidence is there – it’s now time to #SwitchTheSalt. 🧂🔁: buff.ly/3AZoQeD

Every phone is now a bottleshop. Read @AimeeBrownbill thread on new research that shows that people are hit with more than 1,000 ads a day, with most acting as shop fronts and what this means for people who are most at risk of harm.
Aimee Brownbill@AimeeBrownbill

Our new report out today, reports on 1,100+ alcohol ads pushed through our social media feeds each month. We show how alcohol ads are no longer just ads – they are the store front to bottle shops that look to rapidly convert ad exposure into alcohol sale. fare.org.au/buy-now-button…

A rare win suggesting the new definitions in the Vic Liquor Act may make it easier for communities to object to new licences. Will be interesting to see what happens next. abc.net.au/news/2024-08-1…

An important piece of research highlighting the grey area zero-alcohol beverages occupy - parents are right to be wary, with evidence showing delaying exposure to alcohol reduces harms later in life. @SimonePettigrew

Bravo Minister Butler for this strong campaign! Young people are still exposed to vaping ads despite regulations: 31% have seen an ad on TikTok & 25% on Snapchat. Instagram has 18K+ vaping 'influencers’ here. We back the Govt's efforts to crack down. @SimonePettigrew @alikjones

We’re partnering with influencers to launch an anti-vaping campaign. Education is a key step to stopping Big Tobacco from luring young Australians into nicotine dependency.

How Dry January became a branding event for Big Alcohol. When the marketeers are telling you that zero alc products are a way to market the master brands you know it’s time to ensure these products are subject to the same restrictions as alcohol. fastcompany.com/91012502/dry-j…

Excellent comments from Ruediger Krech at WHO about need to avoid complacency and expose continuing tobacco industry efforts to undermine health measures.
United Nations Geneva@UNGeneva

🚭 "That is the first time that we see such a decline. The tobacco industry wanted to have about 35 million more smokers, but we have 19 million less, and that is due to very good tobacco control measures in many, many countries." -- @Ruediger_Krech, @WHO ⬇️

A lot of people ask me about my top #ClimateAction tips. While the key lies in systemic change and #deeptransformation, there is a lot we can do as individuals. Well, this list from the @guardian makes for a great start to 2024!

The global food system is one of the largest contributors to environmental degradation - and one of the sectors hardest hit by climate change. The Food Governance Conference - will explore how law, policy and regulation can address food system challenges. Find out more below.👇

Should government contractors be allowed to make political donations? Not in most OECD countries, but apparently fine here. Political parties disclose a small proportion of their funding. Transparency is the first step. #donationreform thewest.com.au/politics/fundi…
