5 Deadly Products - WHO Report - Ranjodh Singh

Five products you encounter every single day — tobacco, alcohol, ultra-processed foods, fossil fuels, and excessive salt — are responsible for roughly one-third of all deaths on the planet. That is the conclusion of a major World Health Organization report, and it has serious implications for the Australian community. In this episode of Haanji Melbourne, host Ranjodh Singh unpacks the WHO's findings, which were reported in the Sydney Morning Herald and The Age. Here is what you will take away from this episode: Why these five industries actively work to block the regulations that could save lives The shocking truth about ultra-processed foods — which make up 42% of the average Australian's daily diet Why Australia ranks fifth in the world for obesity, and what that means for our community's long-term health Simple, practical steps your family can take today — from reducing salt, to swapping alcohol for healthier drinks, to using the Health Star Rating system when shopping Ranjodh Singh brings his signature warmth and clarity to a topic that affects every household — whether you are newly arrived in Melbourne or have called Australia home for decades.
