Tell Me Why self-care is crucial for better health

Dr. Ramez Sawiris, R&D lead for Haleon Middle East & Africa and Vice Chair of the MENAP-SMI, tells Maria Botros about the importance of prioritizing self-care in this week’s special episode of the Tell Me Why podcast.

Dr. Sawiris also emphasized the importance of incorporating self-care practices into daily routines to ensure a more preventative, rather than reactive, approach for better health.

• Dr. Sawiris: It’s not easy, but self-care is a habit that people need to develop
• Preventative measures create healthy people which means higher productivity, better economies, and saving government budgets that are going towards treating serious illnesses, says Dr. Sawiris
• Dr. Sawiris: The more we promote self-care and teach people how to take care of their health, the more we will prevent chronic diseases
• We are helping people enjoy their aging process rather than spending years managing illnesses or diseases, says Dr. Sawiris
