Know your rights concerning medical aid schemes


If you work hard for your money, you shouldn’t have to bargain for something you pay for. People often feel cheated by their medical aid companies when expectations aren’t met. This can be because people are uninformed about their scheme and its benefits or it can be because a company is indeed acting unethically. Once properly informed, you will know whether you should search for a new medical aid scheme or if you should just carry on paying your monthly contribution.

The Hairy Truth: Investigate the Symptoms of Hair loss


Don’t treat the symptoms; treat the cause

It is far too easy to address the consequences of certain health issues rather than to truly commit yourself to finding the source of the issues. We neglect to take preventative measures because, more often than not, the source suggests a less easy fix. But if you make an effort to tackle the problem where it started, hindsight will render you pleased with yourself and a lot healthier. Take hair loss as an example: don’t just wear a hat – assess your health in its entirety to understand what your body is telling you via consequent (degrees of) baldness.
