The Municipal Health Office of Echague conducted a PuroKalusugan Program Implementation Review and Orientation for the additional 26 barangays to be included in the Purok Kalusugan Program, along with the distribution of Purokalusugan (PK) Kits and the introduction of the PK Job Guide to be used at the purok level. This initiative aims to bring comprehensive primary healthcare services directly to communities, including free medical consultations, medicines, vaccinations, and health education.

The activity was attended by the Municipal Health Officer, Rural Health Physician, SB Committee on Health, DMO IV, MHO and RHU staff, and Human Resources for Health (HRH) from the Department of Health.

World Obesity Day 2026: “8 Billion Reasons to Act on Obesity”
Every March 4, the world observes World Obesity Day to raise awareness about obesity as a serious public health concern influenced by food systems, environment, and access to healthcare. Led by the World Obesity Federation, the 2026 campaign carries the theme “8 Billion Reasons to Act on Obesity,” emphasizing the need to reduce stigma and support people living with obesity through compassionate, evidence-based care.
According to the World Health Organization, obesity is defined as excessive fat accumulation that poses a significant health risk. It often results from an imbalance between calorie intake and physical activity and is commonly identified by a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or higher. Obesity increases the risk of noncommunicable diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and certain cancers.
In the Philippines, the 2023 National Nutrition Survey of the DOST–Food and Nutrition Research Institute shows that overweight and obesity affect millions of Filipinos across all age groups. Around 17.3% of adults are overweight and 39.8% are obese, while children, teenagers, and older adults are also increasingly affected. Overall, an estimated 27 million Filipinos are living with overweight or obesity.
To address this growing concern, the National Nutrition Council promotes actions under the Philippine Plan of Action for Nutrition 2023–2028, encouraging Filipinos to adopt healthier diets, increase physical activity, and follow balanced meal guides like Pinggang Pinoy. These efforts are supported by the Philippine Strategic Plan in Addressing Obesity and Other Metabolic Disorders, which focuses on prevention, management, policy development, and research.
Preventing and managing obesity involves eating more fruits and vegetables, limiting processed foods high in sugar, salt, and unhealthy fats, staying physically active, getting enough sleep, and consulting healthcare professionals such as Registered Nutritionist-Dietitians.
Addressing obesity requires collective action—from individuals and families to communities, health professionals, and policymakers. World Obesity Day 2026 reminds us that everyone has a role in promoting healthier lifestyles and ensuring better access to nutrition and health services.
Let us act now for a healthier and stronger Philippines.

In observance of National Cancer Prevention Month this February, the Municipal Health Office of Echague is amplifying the call for better care and stronger policies by reminding every resident that a healthier community begins with awareness, early detection, and the proactive choice to prioritize prevention today.

𝐆𝐨𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐀𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐖𝐞𝐞𝐤 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟔: 𝐔𝐬𝐞 𝐈𝐨𝐝𝐢𝐳𝐞𝐝 𝐒𝐚𝐥𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐆𝐨𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐈𝐃𝐃𝐬
Goiter Awareness Week is observed every fourth week of January through Presidential Proclamation No. 1188 (11 December 2006) to increase public understanding of goiter and other iodine deficiency disorders (IDD), which remain preventable yet persistent public health concerns in the Philippines. Iodine deficiency occurs when the body does not receive enough iodine, leading to a range of health problems that affect individuals across all life stages. Goiter is the most common manifestation of iodine deficiency.
Iodine is an essential micronutrient responsible for the production of thyroid hormones that control energy production on the body. It helps regulate metabolism and promote normal growth and development. IDD may result to goiter, poor mental development, congenital and physical deformities such as deaf-mutism, squint or “pagkaduling”, and mental retardation. It can also result in spontaneous abortion and still births during pregnancy.
Goiter and other IDDs are preventable by consuming shellfish, other seafood, and plants grown near the ocean. But the most cost-effective and sustainable strategy for the prevention of IDDs is the consumption of iodized salt as stated in Kumainment #7, Gumamit ng Iodized Salt.
𝗥𝗲𝗽𝘂𝗯𝗹𝗶𝗰 𝗔𝗰𝘁 𝗡𝗼. 𝟴𝟭𝟳𝟮, also known as the 𝗔𝗦𝗜𝗡 𝗟𝗮𝘄 promotes the use of iodized salt to address the micronutrient deficiencies in the country. It requires salt producers/manufacturers to iodize the salts they produce and distribute. All food outlets, restaurants, and stores are also required to make available to customers only iodized salt in their establishment.
In line with this year’s observance of Goiter Awareness Week, Echague Municipal Health Office enjoins everyone to:
✅ Consume iodine-rich foods such as fish, seaweeds, other seafoods, dairy products, and eggs.
✅ Use iodized salt. Choose products with Saktong Iodine Sa Asin (SISA) seal in their labels to ensure utilization of adequately iodized salt.
✅ Strengthen Local Bantay Asin Task Forces to monitor compliance to ASIN Law
✅ Conduct information campaigns to adequately disseminate the benefits and rationale of the use of iodized salt and health risks that come with iodine deficiency.
Preventing goiter is both affordable and achievable. Through the collective efforts of families, communities, and institutions, iodine deficiency disorders can be eliminated, leading to healthier and more productive Filipinos.
This Goiter Awareness Week, let us remember that ensuring adequate iodine intake is a simple step with a lasting impact—protecting the mind, the body, and the future of the nation.
