Banning smartphones in schools is good for learning and well-being.

New study of 400+ middle schools in Norway: after smartphone bans, girls had fewer mental health issues & better grades. Boys and girls were less likely to be bullied.

Smartphones belong at home or in lockers.

[Dr Alexey Kulikov @KulikovUNIATF]

New @bmj_latest study suggests national non-communicable diseases (NCDs) investment cases are effective at catalysing prevention and control of #NCDs through strengthening governance, financing, and health service access and delivery.

🏥Governance impacts spanned new or stronger laws and/or policies, improved plans and coordination mechanisms, and scaled up public communications.

📈Financing impacts included budgetary allocations to NCDs, use of #health taxes including mobilising domestic resources and leveraging development assistance funding.

👩🏽‍⚕️Many of the impacts yielded broader health and #development benefits, for example, progress towards universal health coverage.

Obesity is not a simple matter of willpower. @llusph research uncovers the complex interplay of biological, environmental & psychological factors contributing to this disease. It's time to shift the narrative with empathy & a holistic approach.
