It also reveals that 18.3 percent of women also get too little physical activity, compared to 11.3 percent of men. The report states that this is causing health problems, including diabetes, high blood pressure, and complications during pregnancy.

The article from FBC News discusses the heightened risks of Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs) among women in Fiji, as highlighted by Dr. Alisi Vudiniabola, the Permanent Secretary for Health. It points out that women face unique challenges due to biological, socio-economic, and cultural factors which increase their vulnerability to NCDs like diabetes, heart disease, and cancer. Dr. Vudiniabola emphasized the need for targeted health interventions, noting that women often prioritize family health over their own, leading to neglect of personal health issues. The article also mentions that lifestyle changes, better access to healthcare, and increased awareness are crucial in addressing these disparities. Additionally, it touches on the broader implications of NCDs on Fiji's health system and economy, advocating for a comprehensive approach to manage and mitigate these risks.
